Naruto: First Love

Chapter 296 Portrait
As Itachi returned to his tribe, he saw a familiar black cat skillfully climbing over the wall and entering a yard next to it.

If I remember correctly, that was Xinzi's black cat, right? After Xinzi's accident, he never came back, and he never went to the apartment where Xinzi lived. Why did he come back this time?
Suddenly thinking of the conversation between Qingfeng and that woman last night, the flower called hope in his heart blossomed more brightly, and he even felt that he could be sure of some things.

He moved slightly and followed the black cat towards Xinzi's room.

Qingfeng looked at the dusty room and scratched his head, not knowing what he should bring back.

"Clothes first, right?" Qingfeng thought, opened Xinzi's room, took out the clothes that did not have the Uchiha family emblem, and sealed them up.

Looking at the many things that were left, Qingfeng felt sad.

If there aren't enough sealing scrolls, we need to make two more trips, right? Especially the things that Ye Xue gave to Xin Zi, we must take them away.

He dug out a few treasure bags and some papers covered with words from the desk, looked at himself, and found that there was no way he could take them away, so he had no choice but to leave with the sealed scroll.

After seeing Aomine leave, Itachi entered Kokoro's room, took a quick look, and was about to chase Aomine when he saw the brocade bag and a piece of paper full of words on the table.

Out of curiosity, he walked over, picked up the sachets, and looked at the words again.

The handwriting was very crooked, and there were many words he didn't recognize, but the ones he recognized were all Chinese characters.

Most of the characters on it were like this, very complicated, unlike the characters he knew, which could be easily drawn with a brush. Some of them had many strokes and were written in a messy way. It could be seen that Xinzi was practicing these characters, but what did this mean? So many Chinese characters? Did Xinzi like Chinese characters very much?
In the first sentence, he only recognized the third character from the bottom, "人", and he didn't recognize the rest!

He couldn't understand it, so he simply stopped watching it and looked at something else.

It wasn't until he saw some portraits in another drawer that he was stunned again.

The first one was of a young man with a Konoha forehead protector, short hair, and a bright smile. He was simply outlined with lines, and at first glance, it was impossible to tell who the man was.

However, Itachi saw four characters in the lower right corner of the painting. The first two characters looked more like Kazama, but he was not sure because they were different. On a piece of paper before, he seemed to have seen those two characters. Below those two characters was the "Kazama" he knew. Maybe they meant the same thing?
The last word is "snow". What kind of snow is Fengjian? Thinking of the woman who often comes in and out of the house, there seems to be a woman named Fengjian Yexue? She seems to have a good relationship with Xinzi, right? Could these papers be left by her for Xinzi?
Unable to figure out what was going on, he moved his eyes to the next one.

That one was very strange, it was a man with a beard and a cloak with the word "fire" written on it. He thought, maybe it was the Sandaime Hokage?
The third picture is very similar to the first one, but the difference is that this time it is from the side, and the man has a cloak on his back, and it seems to say "Fourth Hokage"!
The fourth photo shows this person again, still smiling warmly, holding a rather special kunai with three pointed ends.

Suddenly, he remembered the rumors about the Fourth Hokage.

Flying Thunder God Technique, using a special kunai, could this person really be the Fourth Hokage?

When I think about it, they do look alike. The hairstyle, smile, and clothes are all very similar.

It's just that it's too simple, so it hasn't been confirmed.

There are several more pictures following it that are of the Fourth Hokage, with different expressions and movements, some with very few strokes, and it looks as if they were drawn in a hurry without much concentration, but those pictures of the Fourth Hokage are all very special.

Seeing that he cares so much about the Fourth Hokage, Itachi suspects that the person who drew the picture, or the person who asked someone to draw the picture, must be in love with the Fourth Hokage, right?
Then the careful Itachi discovered that the name was only left in the portrait of the Fourth Hokage.

Sometimes it is 'Snow in the Wind at Night', sometimes it is 'Snow in the Wind'.

Occasionally, in the portraits of the Fourth Hokage, there are words like 'Namikaze Minato', 'Hamiminato', 'Minato', and 'Minato'.

She actually called Minato directly. It seems that the person who drew the picture is Fengjian Yexue. She should know the Fourth Hokage and have a good relationship with him? Oh, by the way, before the Nine-Tails, didn't she often come to the house and often mention the Fourth Hokage's wife?
After that, he looked at the rest of the portraits. Most of them were unfamiliar to him. Although some had been colored, the painting was much rougher than that of the Fourth Hokage.

Among them, the ones he had met were probably Jiraiya and Orochimaru, right?
What surprised him most were the two portraits named 'Uchiha Sasuke' and 'Uchiha Itachi'.

The Sasuke and himself above were not what they look like now, and they looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old.

Sasuke was wearing a chest-revealing dress, with a thick hemp rope tied around his waist, and his eyes were full of defiance.

He was wearing a long robe with a black background and red clouds. There was a deep crack on the forehead protector on his forehead, and he also had a ring on his hand with the word "Zhu" written on it.

Then he found several portraits of people wearing the same black robe with red clouds as him. They all had different names, and each person wore a different ring on his hand, and the ring was worn in a different position.

"Pain, Konan, Zetsu, Sasori, Deidara, Itachi, Kisame, Kakuzu, Hidan, Gaara, Kankuro, Temari, Killer Bee, Tsunade, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Danzo." Itachi looked at the name one after another and was shocked beyond words.

Who are these people? He didn't recognize any of the people in front of him except himself, but he knew the three ninjas behind him.

He felt as if he knew some shocking secret. Who was the person with his name written on it? Was it really him? Why was he wearing such strange clothes and a cracked forehead guard? What did it mean that he was wearing the same clothes as those people?
Could that be my future self? But who is the person who drew the picture? Why does he know about the future? How does he know that I will wear that kind of clothes in the future?
Just as he was about to look at something else, he suddenly felt Qingfeng coming back. He quickly put those portraits back in, restored everything, then found a place and carefully hid himself.

Just as he hid, Qingfeng jumped in lightly from the window with a sealing scroll hanging around his waist.

"Really? If only there was someone to help me. I have to run around all the time. Be careful not to get discovered!" Qingfeng snorted in dissatisfaction. He looked at the table that had been restored to its original state, and sensed a harmless kid, and shook his head secretly.

Forget it. Since they seem to have a good relationship, I’ll just pretend I know nothing. Even if I knew, I wouldn’t be able to do anything now, right?
Thinking of this, Qingfeng began to feel at ease again.

Qingfeng decisively ignored the person in the room, happily packed up his things, then sealed it again and ran out.
