"...Alright, that's all for this lesson."

The dull lesson ended, and the students had just begun to show their joy when the teacher continued, "Also, let me emphasize one more thing."

"In three days, your class will graduate."

"Pass the exam, become a genin, and participate in missions."

"During this period, everyone must pay attention to their diet and avoid getting diarrhea during the exams. Also, be careful when sparring with classmates to avoid injuries that could affect graduation."

After emphasizing for a long time, the teacher finally finished speaking and left, still feeling unsatisfied. Just as the teacher stepped out the door, Uchiha Obito came to Shingetsu Seiun's front with a menacing aura.

"Don't leave after school!"

"I was careless during the day. Let's have another match after school!"

"Okay." To Obito's surprise, Shingetsu Seiun readily agreed. "How about this, wait for me at the back gate of the school after school."

Obito Uchiha choked for a moment.

He hadn't expected Shenyue Xingyun, the bottom-ranked student, to agree so readily, rendering all the arguments he had prepared useless.

"Alright then, see you there."

"See you there or see you."

After school.

Shingetsu Seiun walked out of the school's main gate and headed straight for the Three-Colored Dumpling Shop in Konoha's commercial street.

Senior Yongmei must be getting impatient.

Chapter 4 We are purely friends

"Welcome to..." The young female shop assistant at the Three-Color Dumpling Shop stopped abruptly halfway through her greeting.

Her fairly fair face flushed red in just two seconds, and her eyes lit up.

"This...this...this guest...please...please come in." If it were anyone else, they might have thought the shop assistant was a stutterer, but Shen Yuexingyun was already used to it. Some of the young girls who saw him for the first time were dumbfounded, while others were boiling water. He had seen this kind of tongue-tied situation more than once. He nodded slightly and walked into the dumpling shop under the latter's drooling gaze.

"Nebula!?" A familiar voice came from ahead. Shenyue Nebula looked in the direction of the voice and spotted a familiar face.

"red beans?"

Mitarashi Red Bean.

At this moment, she doesn't look like she did during the Boruto era—in fact, she's still developing. Dressed in a trendy fishnet outfit, coupled with her youthful and beautiful appearance, she's a pretty and energetic young woman.

At that moment, the energetic young woman seemed to choke on the tricolor dumplings because she suddenly spoke.

"Cough~ cough cough~" After taking a sip of water and swallowing the dumpling, Mitarashi Anko said, "Seiun, you like to eat three-colored dumplings too?"

"Great! Come on, sit down. Let's try their new dishes together."

"No, Red Bean." Shingetsu Seiun looked at a seat at the very back of the dumpling shop. "I have an appointment."

"Who did you invite?" Mitarashi Anko wondered, as she watched as Kamitsuki Seiun walked in and sat down in front of a tall, voluptuous woman with short hair.

Mitarashi Anko: ...

As expected of you, Divine Moon Nebula.

He's either with his girlfriend or on his way to find her.

"Senior Yongmei, have you been waiting long?"

The short-haired woman smiled and said, "No, I just arrived too."

Do you know that girl?

Shingetsu Seiun knew the other person was referring to Mitarashi Anko, and casually replied, "Yes."

"She's a junior who's two years younger than me; she's a friend I knew before."

"The kind of pure friendship."

The woman gave her a mocking look: "Are you sure? You have female friends?"

"Look at what you're saying," said Shenyue Xingyun. "Can't I have female friends?"

"No. I just feel that someone like you shouldn't have purely platonic friendships with members of the opposite sex."

"That means you don't know me well enough, senior." Shen Yue Xingyun said, changing the subject: "Let's order first, senior, I'm starving."

Senior Yongmei smiled and said, "I've already ordered."

"I didn't know your taste, so I ordered a little of everything."

"Besides... you said I don't know you thoroughly enough."

That's because you spend too little time with me.

"Could you give me a little more time tonight so that my senior can... get to know me more thoroughly?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "Uh..." He paused for a moment, then said awkwardly, "Senior."

"It doesn't seem very convenient."

"You know me, I have a lot to do at night."

Senior Yongmei pouted unhappily: "Alright, alright, I know, busy person."

"How about you come with me for some fresh air after we eat?"

It wouldn't be good to refuse the other person twice. Shenyue Xingyun estimated the evening's schedule and then nodded.

"it is good."

As the two were talking, the waiter came over with two servings of meatballs and hot drinks.

It's the female shop assistant from earlier.

After coming over, he held a hot drink in his hand, but his eyes were darting back and forth across Shenyue Xingyun's face, not even noticing that a little bit of hot drink had been spilled.

Seeing this, Senior Yongmei teased, "Is it pretty?"

"Ah~" The female shop assistant was startled. After regaining her senses, she hurriedly put the meatballs and hot drinks away.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." She couldn't explain what she was sorry for, and walked away while repeatedly apologizing.

Senior Sister Yongmei turned her gaze back to Shenyue Xingyun and smiled, "If you nod now, you can get another girlfriend."

Shenyue Xingyun smiled and said, "What are you talking about?"

"With you in front of me, how could I possibly have any other woman in my heart?"

"By the way, senior, tell me about your life as a genin. I'm very interested."

The two chatted as they enjoyed the dumplings. But then, Eimi suddenly stopped talking.

Shenyue Xingyun: "Speak up, senior, why are you stopping?"

Senior Eimi did not answer, her gaze turning to the back of Shingetsu Nebula.

She said, "Nebula."

Are you sure she's just a friend of yours?

Shinzuki Seiun turned around and met Mitarashi Anko's furtive gaze. Noticing their stares, she immediately lowered her head, trying to hide her presence as she ate her dumplings.

The Divine Moon Nebula turned its head.

"They're just ordinary friends."

There's nothing between us.

Senior Yongmei: "Oh? How did you meet?"

Shenyue Xingyun said, "It's a coincidence."

"That day I was being chased by several people, and she happened to be there and hid me, which saved me."

Senior Yongmei frowned: "How many people are chasing you? Who's chasing you?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "My ex-girlfriend's boyfriend."

Yongmei glared at her: "How many more? Which of your girlfriends is that awful?"

Shenyue Xingyun said awkwardly, "It's not any girlfriend."

"He's the boyfriend of several girlfriends."

Senior Yongmei: "..."

With Mitarashi Anko watching them suspiciously, the two of them didn't want to stay at the dango shop for long and quickly finished their meal before leaving.

Then, the senior student Yongmei, who had just said she wanted to feel the wind, took Shenyue Xingyun's sleeve and led her through a maze of turns to a dead end where there was absolutely no wind. Before Shenyue Xingyun could react, Yongmei grabbed Shenyue Xingyun's slender hand from her sleeve and suddenly seized her hand with a small grappling move.

"Wait for me, senior!"

"No sneak attacks allowed!"

...

Along the banks of the Namga River, Muto Saika paced back and forth, occasionally kicking small pebbles.

"Stinky Nebula".

"Bad guy."

"They've kept me waiting for so long and they still haven't come."

After kicking a few pebbles, she would look up in the direction she had come from, her eyes filled with both anticipation and trepidation.

After a while, a figure vaguely appeared on the path in the distance. Mutou Saika's face immediately lit up with joy, but soon, the joy was replaced by a complicated expression.

A short while later, Shingetsu Seiun arrived in front of Mutou Saika.

"Something came up on the way here, which delayed me."

"How long have you been waiting?"

Muto Saika lowered her head: "Not long."

"Has the matter been resolved?"

Recalling the delicate figure of Eimi slowly moving away, Shingetsu Seiun confirmed, "It's resolved."
