Chapter Fifteen: Life is about enjoying yourself in time!
Because his father had just passed away, Kakashi was naturally in great pain. Sometimes Kakashi even felt that even this human emotion called "pain" was terrifying.
Although there is someone who tells him other answers with his back, standing in front of him like a guide, Kakashi will still be troubled by this.
Partner, mission, ninja, these three words always appear in Kakashi's mind uncontrollably. Unlike Gintoki, who has strong beliefs, he is really just a child.
Therefore, it is easy to be dyed in various colors by this world and lose one's own judgment.
His change also started after White Fang's death.
…
Two years after Sakumo's self-immolation incident.
Spring was approaching, and the cherry blossom tree in the yard began to bloom with a faint fragrance. Gintoki, who was already ten years old, came to the eaves of the backyard, crossed one leg and sat down casually.
A small pot of wine and two small plates.
The three taboos of ninja were something that Gintoki turned a blind eye to. Kakashi found Gintoki's collection at home more than once, and saw Gintoki losing nothing but his strawberry shorts more than once in the casino.
.
He said it countless times but the other party didn't listen, so gradually, Kakashi gave up on this useless brother's correction plan.
Of course, in Kakashi's mind, this eldest brother is still his pride. Since he became a ninja, he has a 100% mission completion rate and is a role model for all ninjas.
The reputation of Hatake's eldest son, Hatake Gintoki, is also unknowingly approaching that of another well-known yellow flash among the ninjas of Konoha.
Losing his father does not mean that he has lost his goal. This eldest brother is his goal.
…
At some point, a large bag as big as a bowl appeared on Gintoki's head, and there wasn't much wine left in the small pot of wine beside him. But strangely, there was only a wine plate left on the floor.
"It's too early for you!"
A slightly serious voice came from the eaves above Gintoki's head.
"I don't even want to imagine your expression now. I feel a little disgusted just thinking about it. Don't be too proud and suddenly die suddenly, uncle."
Sakumo, who was standing on the eaves, grinned when he heard this. Just like Gintoki said, drinking with his son is indeed an emotional and gratifying thing.
"Okay, Kakashi's matter..."
Sakumo put away the wine plate and stopped talking.
As for Gintoki, who lives under the same roof, he does know very well about Kakashi. Although he has talked with Kakashi many times, the results are not very satisfactory.
During the execution of the mission, Kakashi always put the mission first, even after changing teams several times. Therefore, Kakashi failed to integrate into any team.
Of course, this is only on the surface. Gintoki knows in his heart that that guy is just arrogant, and he hides his concern for his teammates deep in his heart and never shows it.
He hasn't been able to come up with his own answer yet, and is always torn between tasks and companions.
"Yin Sang, I have tried my best."
"I know, but he...can't continue like this."
"Hey~" Gintoki also sighed, and then he also picked his nostrils with his little finger, "Well, forget it, what else do you adults do besides leaving troublesome things to your children? This time Gintoki I will reluctantly work hard.
Just work hard.”
"What are you going to do?"
"Ordinary preaching is of no use, and I'm not good at it. In this case, the only thing that can illuminate his heart is a little sun like light."
"Huh?" Sakumo was puzzled, but before he could ask, Kakashi's voice came over.
"Good-for-nothing Gintoki, dinner is ready."
"It's time for me to go. Goodbye."
After leaving such a sentence, Sakumo left quietly without leaving any trace.
Along the corridor, Kakashi came to the backyard and smelled the smell of wine keenly. Looking at the wine bottle and wine plate beside Gintoki, Kakashi looked like he was looking at a scumbag.
Did you even get the last ban on alcohol?
Kakashi also sighed inwardly, there was probably no hope of saving this big brother, as he was completely rotten in some aspects and exuded a foul smell.
Of course, even though he felt disgusted in his heart, Kakashi still packed up the wine bottles and wine plates that Gintoki had abandoned. When putting the wine plates, Kakashi discovered that one of the wine plates at home seemed to be missing.
However, Kakashi didn't care when he thought it was Gintoki who accidentally broke it and threw it away.
…
On the dining table, looking at the two pan-fried small fish, rice and miso soup in front of him, Gintoki was silent for a long time and then raised his head to look at Kakashi who was silently cooking opposite him.
"Didn't I say that I wouldn't eat rice bowl if it wasn't Uji Gintoki's?"
"Ha..." Kakashi also lowered his head and sighed, and said, "Eating sweets every day will really kill you."
"It doesn't matter what happens to that kind of thing!" Gintoki replied seriously, "Gin-san, I have already decided to eat the food I like and live a fat and short life! This is Gin-san's way of tolerance!"
"What kind of ninja is this!" Kakashi couldn't help complaining.
"Tch, what do children know?" Gintoki curled his lips, then leaned back and propped his hands on the floor, staring at the ceiling with a pair of dead fish eyes.
Seeing Gintoki's determination to go on a hunger strike, Kakashi sighed helplessly again and stretched out his hand towards Gintoki.
"What?"
"Money, money, you haven't paid home for months. If you want to eat the food you like, at least pay your share of the food expenses."
"Don't worry, I have a hunch that I can make a lot of money tonight, so... lend me some start-up capital first."
Kakashi was silent. As a family member who lived with Gintoki day and night, how could he not know that the start-up capital Gintoki said was gambling capital.
"I will never redeem your clothes next time!"
"Obito-kun——!"
"Obito?"
Kakashi frowned and didn't understand why Gintoki called Obito at this time, but then he spotted a boy wearing goggles emerging from the grass outside the window, stroking the back of his head and laughing.
How could you not notice such a big living person?
Kakashi had a strange feeling in his heart. Could it be that this ungraduated crane tail has really become stronger?
"Thank you for your hard work! Brother Gintoki! This is what you deserve today!"
Obito came in through the window, walked straight to Gintoki's side, took out a lollipop from his pocket, and solemnly bowed his head and offered it to Gintoki with both hands.
"Uh...what's the fuss about?"
Kakashi complained, but just as he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed another figure appearing outside the window, but this time it was obviously a girl.
