Naruto: First Love

Chapter 297 Reminiscing about the past
Originally Itachi wanted to follow Aomine to see Kokoro, but unfortunately when he was going out, he met the tribesmen patrolling the street. After a bunch of chaotic compliments, Aomine was nowhere to be seen, so Itachi had to go back.

He was more concerned about those portraits and letters, but he did not read the letters immediately because it was wrong to peek into other people's privacy. Before he looked at the paintings, he did not know that they were private.

He didn't know how Xinzi survived, nor did he delve into why Xinzi didn't go home and didn't recognize him, but he knew that from that incident that day, some things had changed.

I wonder if Xinzi will blame him? Blame him for not looking for her.

However, facing the expectations of his father at home, he didn't have the time to think too much, played with Sasuke carelessly, then went to bed, and had to get up early the next day.

She went to bed very late at night, and Xinzi didn't have time to sort out the things that Yexue left for her. She didn't see those things when she moved them out of the Uchiha clan's territory, except for a letter. But she didn't expect that Qingfeng would bring those things back this time.

Qingfeng took the portraits, sorted them out one by one, and placed them on the table.

The next day, Hinata Sora came knocking on her door early. Xinzi squinted her eyes, looked at the many ingredients he brought, and suddenly woke up again.

"What are you doing?"

"Xinzi, you can cook, right? I can't, but I don't want to eat out today. Now that you have your own room, you can cook." Hinata Sora was squatting in front of the ingredients and picked them up.

Then I looked up and found that Xinzi was not wearing a mask. She had a pretty face and was very cute. I blushed slightly. So this is what Xinzi looked like!

"Are you an idiot? You know I don't have any cooking utensils here, and haven't you heard the saying 'A good cook cannot cook without rice'?" Xinzi sighed, looking at the empty kitchen and living room, not knowing what to say.

Hinata Sora probably just remembered at this time that it was indeed the case. Without tools, what could he use to cook?
After standing there for a while, Hinata Sora said, "How about... go buy some?"

"I'm a idler and a patient, how can I have money?" Xinzi's mouth twitched. She is still a poor person!
Hinata Sora's face froze for a long while before he said awkwardly, "Well, I remembered I have something else to do at home, so I'll come back this afternoon..."

Then he ran away quickly.

There is something going on at home!
The corner of Xinzi's mouth twitched, what a good excuse, what could happen to a student who skipped class?

The dishes that Hinata Sora brought were eventually given to a neighbor next door.

But when I knocked on the door, I found that a neighbor living on the other side was actually a beautiful woman, and the forehead protector on her head told her that she was a ninja.

"Oh, I heard that the new neighbor is very small. I didn't expect she is a little girl. Little girl, do you live alone?" The woman was not very tall, but she was very excited to see her.

Xinzi regretted not wearing a mask.

She was at least about 1.45 meters tall, while this woman was only about 1.6 meters tall. So they looked much smaller.

"Well, sister, do you live alone too?" Xinzi had to nod in front of this woman to show her friendliness, but she rudely waved away the other person's hand that was making trouble on her head.

"Hongdou, hurry up, what are you dawdling for?" A voice suddenly came from downstairs, startling the two of them and they looked over there together.

The woman curled her lips and looked at Xinzi with some disappointment, "Ah, let's talk next time. I have to do the task first."

After speaking, he jumped down and left with the person below.

red beans……

A very familiar name, I seem to have heard it before.

By the way, Orochimaru’s disciple is Red Bean, right?
Orochimaru rebelled, leaving behind this lonely disciple. Although he was already a Chunin, what he missed in his heart was the person he was during his Genin days. Just like her, he was no longer a Genin, but he missed everything about his Genin days very much.

I remember someone said, I would rather be a tolerant person all my life, get married and have children, and retire when my children grow up...

However, the world of ninjas has too many changes, and there are not so many possibilities to allow oneself to fantasize.

Xinzi stood alone in the aisle for a while before she put on a mask and went out with Qingfeng.

There was nothing at home that made her feel at ease, so her first reaction was naturally to go outside.

Fortunately, the weather in Konoha was very good. She put on the wallet that Kakashi had thrown to her and decided to go eat first.

Standing in front of Ichirola again, looking at the familiar yellow figure inside, she hesitated.

After thinking it over for the last time, he left Qingfeng there and left.

She didn't know how to comfort people, and didn't know what to say when she saw that child. After all, she was seven years older than the child. According to Aunt Ye Xue, there was a generation gap of three years, so there were already two generations gap.

Qingfeng watched her turn around resolutely, and suddenly thought of Yexue's resolute look when she faced that person a few years ago. He wanted to get close to her, but was afraid. That was her.

Xinzi left with a melancholy look on his face, found a small restaurant to eat, and then lay on the roof to bask in the sun.

It was not until the evening that he walked slowly down.

No one knew where Aomine and Naruto had gone, but she didn't care, since they were not children after all.

It was only when she was almost home that she realized someone was following her. She was very curious, who was following her?
But she felt that the other party had no ill intentions. Moreover, given her current physical condition, she would probably have no choice but to run for her life if she encountered an ordinary Genin.

"It looks like we've been discovered, Itachi, come out." With a chuckle, a young man with a short knife on his back appeared in front of Xinzi.

Uchiha Shisui...

Before Xinzi could be surprised, Itachi also appeared with a short sword on his back.

The moment she saw Itachi, she roughly knew why they were there. After all, it was not difficult for such a smart person to know her identity.

She nodded and said to the two of them, "Come in first."

The two of them didn't say anything else and followed Xinzi to her room.

Looking at the bare new home, Shisui was very surprised. "As expected, they just moved in. There is nothing in it."

Xinzi smiled slightly, took off the mask and sat down.

Shisui had never seen her before and didn't react at all, Itachi had already guessed it and wasn't too surprised.

But the joy in Itachi's eyes was so obvious. "You..."

Xinzi waved his hand to stop him from talking.

"I know that Tianma is dead, and my name has been engraved on the memorial tablet. Itachi, you don't have to feel guilty. I think I am relieved now."

With just one sentence, Itachi stopped himself from apologizing.

Looking at Xinzi's pale face, the self-mockery in her eyes was very dazzling. "I'm sorry, when I woke up, I found out that your names had been engraved, and I didn't know that my father and teacher Mizunotsuki didn't go to look for them..."

"Actually, it has nothing to do with Mizunotsuki-sensei. At that time, the most important thing was the mission. Ninjas were tools to complete the mission. Didn't Mizunotsuki-sensei always teach us that?"
