Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

It's not that I'm unsure if I can find a girlfriend, but rather that I'm unsure if I can let go of Rin Nohara.

He opened his eyes to an empty Konoha; when he closed them, Rin Nohara's smiling face filled his inner world.

"Lin~"

"Lin~~"

Obito Uchiha sighed softly. Some situations are simply not changeable, just like how difficult it was for him to change his painful state.

He knew that tonight would be another sleepless night.

Heading back home, Obito Uchiha saw groups of people strolling in the streets along the way.

There were families of three, and also young couples.

In the evening breeze, he felt a bit cold, and his clothes couldn't keep out the chill of the night wind.

Suddenly, an idea popped into his head—why not buy a bar?

Alcohol, an emotional soothing agent for lonely adult men. Buy a couple of bottles; not only will it warm you up, but it might also help you get a good night's sleep.

Obito Uchiha stopped and turned to walk towards the convenience store.

……

Konoha Convenience Store (Department Store)

Standing in front of the shelves, Nohara Rin looked at the goods before her, her bright eyes narrowing as she hesitated.

Every now and then, she would glance around to make sure no one was paying attention to her before continuing to stare at the shelves in front of her, agonizing over her choice.

'Should I buy it or not?' She hesitated, looking at the Smurf plastic doll in front of her.

She hesitated, only about whether to bring what was in front of her to Shingetsu Seiun. As for the new life that was about to begin that night, she had already made up her mind during the Third Shinobi World War.

Perhaps the Shingetsu Nebula didn't completely belong to her, but she belonged entirely to him. From the day of the Kannabi Bridge, she had been looking forward to this day, and now that day had finally arrived, she would never back down.

The only difference is whether you fight bare-handed or with a Smurf doll by your side.

A fight with bare hands would certainly be more intense, but it would also be troublesome if she were hit in a vital spot. But then again, if she were to actually get hit—it seems like it would be quite wonderful.

As she pondered, Nohara Rin's thoughts drifted away, disappearing into the distance.

Seeing Nohara Rin standing motionless in front of the shelf, the female shop assistant kindly offered, "Would you like me to recommend something?"

"No, no, no! Thank you, but it's alright." Nohara Rin was startled and quickly shook her head.

Then, she looked at the shelf in front of her and made up her mind.

I bought it!

Anyway, it's always better to be prepared for this. As for whether or not to fight alongside the Smurf dolls, she decided to respect Shenyue Xingyun's opinion.

Whatever he says, then it will be.

After making her decision, Nohara Rin shakily reached out and took the Smurf doll from the shelf. As she turned to pay, Uchiha Obito's voice suddenly rang out beside her.

"Lin?"

"What a coincidence, you're here too..."

The sound stopped abruptly.

Chapter 335 The Sky Collapsed and the Earth Was Covered

Obito Uchiha had imagined many tragic and miserable scenes.

After his relationship with Nohara Rin gradually faded, on many nights, in the evening breeze, as he savored his loneliness, he would fantasize about a dramatic scene where he would meet Nohara Rin again someday.

For example, Nohara Rin pushes a stroller, taking care of the child all alone and helpless.

For example, after Nohara Rin was abandoned by Shinzuki Seiun, she bumped into him on the street, crying, as Rin poured out her regret and sorrow. He coldly replied, "I told you that before, but you wouldn't listen."

For example, many years later, Rin Nohara finally saw through Shinzuki Seiun's true nature hidden beneath his deceptive exterior and begged him to start over. What attitude should he have towards him then? But he never imagined it would be like this today, like now.

In the convenience store, he bumps into Rin Nohara, who is holding a Smurf doll.

Everything happened so suddenly.

Even though they had only parted ways at the barbecue restaurant not long ago, looking at what Rin Nohara was holding, Obito Uchiha felt as if an eternity had passed.

It was so long that he couldn't tell whether what he was seeing was reality or fantasy.

He closed his eyes, then opened them again.

Nohara Rin still stood there blankly in front of him, the object in her hand still gleaming brightly.

The two were speechless for a moment.

In the end, Nohara Rin, her face flushed, secretly hid the Smurf behind her back.

"What a coincidence, Obito."

"We ran into each other again."

“Yes…” Obito Uchiha said, but his voice was so hoarse that even he himself was somewhat unfamiliar with it.

He thought to himself, "Maybe I have a cold."

"You..." Obito Uchiha wanted to ask what she was doing here, but he had already seen what Rin Nohara was hiding behind her, and the words that came out were: "Are you thirsty too and here to buy water?"

"I also have a bit of a cold, so I came to buy some soy sauce," Obito Uchiha said in a way that no one could understand.

At that moment, overwhelming emotions surged through his soul, completely disrupting his mental order.

Rin Nohara stared blankly at Obito Uchiha, who was spouting nonsense, and then burst out laughing.

Seeing Obito Uchiha's dazed expression eased much of her tension and shyness. Looking at Obito, who stood there lost in thought, how could she not understand his feelings?

A warm feeling welled up inside her, and Nohara Rin suddenly realized that she might have been too cold towards Uchiha Obito.

After all, they were former classmates and partners who had fought side by side. She thought for a moment and said softly.

"Obito".

Obito Uchiha's eyes darted around: "In... uh, you mean, Rin."

With her hands behind her back, Nohara Rin looked up at Uchiha Obito and chuckled, "Thank you for your care all this time."

Obito Uchiha: "Do...do I have one?"

Rin Nohara: "Anyway, thank you."

"Also..." She tilted her head, looked at Obito Uchiha, and encouraged him in a lively voice, "Go find a girlfriend who suits you."

"Believe me, life will undergo the best changes."

With that, he smiled at Obito Uchiha, took the Smurf doll to pay the bill, and then skipped away.

Obito Uchiha was left alone. He had originally come to buy alcohol, but now, he stood in front of the Smurf plush toy shelf, staring blankly at the rows of goods for a long time.

After a while, the shop assistant came over and asked in a low voice.

"Sir, do you need help?"

After she asked twice, Obito Uchiha finally spoke up: "Do you have any alcohol?"

"I want the strongest one."

Upon hearing Obito Uchiha's request, the shop assistant followed his gaze to the Smurfs shelf. After a moment, she cautiously reminded him, "Sir, there are some things... you can't force someone to drink alcohol."

……

late at night.

On the streets of Konoha, a figure, shrouded in a dark hood, hurried past.

A ninja on night patrol saw this and immediately went over to inquire.

The figure spoke up, "It's urgent, I need to report to Captain Nebula."

After verifying the information, the patrolling ninja let the other party leave.

Before long, the figure arrived at a gate and, as agreed, gently pulled the mechanism on one side of the gate.

A short while later, the door was opened a crack, and a figure quickly slipped through the gap.

After walking through the courtyard and down the corridor, we finally arrived at a dark, empty room.

The figure finally lifted the hood of her hood, revealing Nohara Rin's rosy face.

Rin Nohara: "I was just spotted by the patrolling ninjas, it scared me to death."

"It would be so much better if we went to the little bamboo house; it's so inconvenient for us to come here."

Shenyue Xingyun said softly, "The small bamboo house is not big enough, and it's a bit cold."

Rin Nohara: "Is your younger brother asleep? Is it inconvenient for him?"

"Don't worry," said Shenyue Xingyun.

His residence is surrounded by streets on three sides, with three small courtyards in each direction, and numerous rooms surrounding a large courtyard.

Furthermore, he separated each courtyard and room with a barrier technique so as not to disturb his family's rest in special circumstances. For example, right now, everything in the room seems normal to Nohara Rin, but in fact, their room and courtyard have long been separated by a barrier. Not to mention the slightest movement, even if a battle breaks out, ordinary ninjas cannot break through the barrier of the room.

Shinzuki Seiun helped Nohara Rin put her coat away, and then held Nohara Rin's hands in his palms.

Perhaps it was because I was walking at night, but it was a bit chilly.

"Wear more clothes next time you go out. Look, your hands are freezing cold."

With her hands gripped by Shingetsu Seiun, Nohara Rin's breathing became rapid; she didn't even register whether it was cold or not.

Fortunately, Yekura was away on business recently, and Shingetsu Seiun temporarily bound the marriage chain to Yekura. Otherwise, if she had done something like that, Nohara Rin would have easily been killed here.

Even without the amplifying effect of the marriage chain, Rin Nohara's heart was still racing as she felt her hands being held tightly by her beloved.

There were no lights or candles in the room, and even as my eyes began to adjust to the darkness, I could only make out the outline of the Divine Moon Nebula.

The darkness made the atmosphere even more enchanting, and also caused Rin Nohara's body temperature to rise rapidly.

"Aren't we going to turn on the lights?" Nohara Rin's voice sounded watered down.

But as soon as she said it, she regretted it.

I shouldn't have said that!
