Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Chapter 39 Guang, Yin Ye and Sun

Uchiha Gin, who was about to get angry, looked at the pitiful Senju Itama and felt that there was no need to be angry with a little kid, so he squatted down and took out the family photo from the broken photo frame.

The picture of the happy family of three made Uchiha Gin feel very emotional. The original owner's childhood memories were vague and he did not have a deep impression of his parents, but judging from the photos alone, the original owner's childhood should have been very happy.

“That’s why I hate war.”

Shaking his head, Uchiha Gin picked up the photo and prepared to stand up, but found that there was another photo stuck in the frame.

The original owner had no memory of this. Puzzled, Uchiha Gin took out the hidden photo and looked at it carefully.

The photo shows two children, a boy and a girl, who look about eight or nine years old.

The two people stood on the left and right of an old man who looked very kind. The old man stroked the children's heads with both hands. From the happy expressions of the two children, it can be seen that the relationship between the three is very close.

Uchiha Gin recognized the child on the left as the original owner, Uchiha Gin, but he had no impression of the girl.

The girl has waist-length black hair, fair skin, and is wearing a blue dress. Her face is slightly blushing with shyness.

The old man had gray curly hair and a kind look in his eyes, and his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Uchiha Gin.

Looking at the photo in his hand, Uchiha Gin tried hard to search the original owner's memory, carefully reviewing it from the time when he could remember, but in the end he found no information about the two people in the photo.

Flipping through the photos, Uchiha Gin found two small words on the back of the photo:

【Silver】【Light】

"Gin" should refer to the original owner Uchiha Gin, so the "Light" should be the girl in the photo without any surprise.

"Uchiha... Hikaru?"

Uchiha Gin, who guessed the girl's name, did not find any trace of this name in his mind.

He frowned, vaguely feeling that the original owner's memory was greatly deviated. Not only were his childhood memories vague, but the memory of the Uchiha clan tragedy six years ago was also fragmented.

Could it be that the original owner suffered from selective amnesia?

He will actively forget memories that make him feel uncomfortable, so he lost the memories before and after his parents' sacrifice, as well as the memory of the tragedy in his clan.

"I'm sorry~"

Senju Itama, who was curled up on the bed, saw Uchiha Gin's expression changing after he picked up the photo, and subconsciously thought that the other party was very angry.

He could sense from Uchiha Gin's home that his parents might have passed away long ago, and breaking the only family portrait undoubtedly deepened Uchiha Gin's sadness.

"Little guy, I have to go out for something. There's food outside."

Uchiha Gin, who was eager to find the answer, didn't even bother to deal with the little brat Senju Itama. He just gave him some instructions and hurried out.

Senju Itama, who did not suffer from Uchiha Gin's "just punishment" as he had imagined, carefully stuck his head out and saw that the other party actually left directly, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

He tiptoed out wrapped in a quilt, looking at the steaming food left on the table, an inexplicable emotion spreading in his eyes.

Uchiha Gin walked on the road, trying to recall a few people with whom the original owner was close, wanting to learn about the original owner's childhood from them.

He suddenly realized that in his memory he only had interactions with the Uchiha Tajima family, and the other clan members seemed to be just casual acquaintances.

He could say their names, but had only a vague idea of ​​his experiences with them, and this gave him goosebumps all over his body.

I have already walked to the gathering place of the tribe and look back at the bustling crowd around me.

Uchiha Gin was horrified to find that he seemed to know everyone here, but he just couldn't remember the details that happened between him and this person. It was as if he had a cognition that he should know the people he wanted to know, and that was all.

This discovery made Uchiha Gin's hair stand on end. The air around him seemed to be filled with lead, causing his steps to hang in the air and he was unable to take a step forward.

The original owner not only had memory loss, but also had significant cognitive problems. What was the source of all this?

"How can you be sure that what you see is real?"

"How do you know that you are really yourself?"

Suddenly I remembered the two sentences the old jailer said in the dungeon before I was about to pass out, which seemed to hint at something.

He took a deep breath and calmed his restless heart. Amid the rejection gazes of the surrounding Uchiha clan members, Uchiha Gin walked towards Uchiha Tian's mansion.

Looking at the familiar door in front of him, Uchiha Gin knocked on the door without hesitation.

After a while, a servant opened the door and saw that it was Uchiha Gin. He let him in without asking too many questions. Walking on the creaking wooden floor, Uchiha Gin was thinking about how to start the conversation, but he ran into Izuna who had just come out of Uchiha Tajima's room.

"Cousin, you haven't been to my house for a long time. Why did you think of coming here today?"

Ever since Uchiha Gin was defeated by Madara, he has never set foot in the Uchiha Tajima family. The Uchiha Tajima family simply felt that it was very embarrassing for them to be defeated by a child ten years younger than them, so they chose to escape.

"I suddenly have something I want to ask my uncle."

Uchiha Gin explained his purpose.

"After being unconscious during the day, I found that my pupil power seemed to have improved a little."

After hearing Uchiha Gin's explanation, Uchiha Izuna didn't think much about it. He now had his own tasks and didn't have the extra energy to care about Uchiha Gin's affairs. After saying hello, he left in a hurry.

Relying on memory, I came to Uchiha Tajima's door and knocked gently a few times. A few seconds later, Uchiha Tajima's cold voice came from the room.

"who?"

"Uncle, I have something I want to ask you."

Uchiha Gin responded.

"crunch~"

Following a few footsteps, the door was opened. Uchiha Tajima lost his stern expression and said in a warm tone,

"It's Ah Yin. I haven't been here for several years. I thought you forgot where I live."

Entering Uchiha Tajima's study, the two sat opposite each other, and Uchiha Tajima spoke first.
"Ayin, you just got out of the hospital. Why don't you stay at home and rest? Why do you come to see me?"

"Actually, I have something I want to ask my cousin."

Uchiha Gin said straight to the point.

"About what?"

Hearing that the other party had something to ask, Uchiha Tajima frowned subconsciously.

"I just want to ask, besides my parents and you, my cousin, what other relatives do I have?"

Recalling the old man in the photo who looked so much like himself, Uchiha Gin thought for a moment and asked.

"Is this it?"

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Gin actually asked this question, which made Uchiha Tajima speechless for a moment.

Uchiha Tajima seemed to be thinking and fell into deep thought. Uchiha Gin did not disturb him and waited by the side.

"What do you ask for this?"

Without answering Uchiha Gin's question for the time being, Uchiha Tajima asked back.

"I found a photo of an old man at home. He looked familiar, but I just don't know him, so I wanted to ask you, my cousin."

After some consideration, Uchiha Gin told the other party about his discovery, but did not take out the photos to show them.

"Old man." Uchiha Tajima's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible resentment, and he said in a heavy tone,

"Actually, you still have a grandfather."

Grandfather? Could it be that the old man in the photo is my grandfather?
"However, your grandfather and your father don't have a good relationship, and they haven't been in touch for a long time."

Seeing Uchiha Gin's inquiring eyes, Uchiha Tajima continued to explain,
"And your grandfather died six years ago."

Six years ago again? Uchiha Gin's heart skipped a beat. Uchiha Tajima actually said that his grandfather had no contact with his family for a long time. Then how to explain the photo? The original owner clearly had a deep connection with his grandfather.

"Then can I ask how my grandfather died?"

Uchiha Gin tried to find more clues.

Uchiha Tajima's face darkened, and a sense of decadence emanated from his body. He seemed to have remembered something sad, and his body became hunched.
"He was killed six years ago, on the night when the tribe was attacked."
