"No, absolutely not."

While covering for his brother, Uchiha Sasuke waved his hand and pretended to leave.

joke.

I don't want to get involved in the trivial matters of suspicion between lovers like you.

However, Tiantian still looked serious and said:

"If it's not a change of heart

"Then, my second guess will probably be even worse."

Hearing this, Uchiha Sasuke's face changed and he stopped again.

He observed Tiantian's expression carefully.

The girl looked very serious.

After hearing Sasuke's assurance, Tenten did not show any signs of relaxation. Instead, the doubts on his face became more intense.

"Hey, if you have something to say, just say it quickly."

Sasuke urged patiently.

Women are really troublesome.

Why can't you just say it openly?

If it hadn't been about Hinata Neji, he wouldn't have been here for so long.

However, seemingly unaware of Sasuke's mood, Tenten continued:

"These days, for some reason, Hyuga Neji seems to have been avoiding me.

"When I came back on the first day, everything was as usual, him."

As Tiantian recalled this, her cheeks flushed and she said shyly:

“Anyway, everything is good.

"However, the third day after you came back was May 16th.

"On that day, we had made an appointment in advance to meet at the gate of Gan Ligan in the afternoon, but he did not show up that day."

Uchiha Sasuke was a little distracted, barely supporting himself as he listened to Tiantian talking about the daily love lives of these girls.

"After that, he seemed to be avoiding me.

“In the beginning, he could chat with me briefly, but soon made lame excuses and left.

"Later, it got to the point where he would turn around and leave as soon as he saw me. I saw him from a distance in Konoha several times.

"But he seemed to be avoiding me on purpose, even ignoring my calls and leaving as soon as possible."

"Did you have a fight?"

Uchiha Sasuke made his first judgment and asked.

"Absolutely not."

Tiantian shook his head solemnly and continued:

"At first, I thought I accidentally offended him. But this is definitely not how Neji handles problems. The more I think about it, the weirder I feel.

"Finally, that day I made up my mind to catch up with him and ask him clearly. However, he ran away and disappeared after turning a corner!"

Indeed, it's a bit strange.

Based on my understanding of Neji, he has never been a guy who is irresponsible and can only escape.

While listening, Uchiha Sasuke kept thinking about it in his mind.

These days, he has been busy discussing village affairs and the situation in the ninja world with his master. During the day, he goes to the Konoha Hospital to accompany Uzumaki Naruto to do rehabilitation training.

In between, we visited Kimimaro and talked about each other's experiences;

I went to meet Kakashi-sensei again and shared everything about the Akatsuki organization. By the way, we discussed various possibilities of Thunder Release together;

Also, visits to Tsunade, Shizune, etc., as well as dinner invitations among friends of the same generation.

In short, it is indeed rich, and you can say that there is no leisure for a moment.

Now that Tiantian mentioned it, Sasuke suddenly realized that indeed, he had not been in contact with Neji for many days.

"So, what exactly is your second guess?"

Uchiha Sasuke asked.

Apparently, this matter has been bothering Tiantian for a long time.

In this case, she must have thought over the various possibilities.

Thinking of this, Sasuke no longer thought about it, but chose to ask the other party directly.

"If he hasn't changed his mind."

Tiantian took a deep breath and said slowly:

"I suspect that after May 16th, the Ningji we see will no longer be him.

"Although that guy's acting looks very similar, I can just feel it from his eyes."

Tenten looked at Uchiha Sasuke firmly and said word by word:

"Such a guy is definitely not the Hinata Neji I know."

Chapter 252 Hinata Residence

"This is not the Hyuga Neji you know."

Uchiha Sasuke pondered Tenten's words and slowly asked:

“You’re saying someone is impersonating Neji.

"Transfiguration?"

Opposite me, Tiantian nodded first, then shook his head and said:

"I can't say for sure.

"But the transformation technique is indeed the one with the highest probability."

Hearing this possibility, Uchiha Sasuke fell silent again.

Generally speaking, in ninja schools, knowledge about the identification and counter-identification of "transformation techniques" focuses on controlling the details of the partner's life habits and character, that is, the person disguised by the enemy. , and on the subtle observations of shared memory.

However, according to Tenten, Hyuga Neji is not able to make good use of this knowledge in this situation.

The other party simply refuses to have close contact with Tiantian, so the application of relevant knowledge of "identification" is out of the question.

"Assuming that the other party really used the transformation technique, then what would be his purpose of pretending to be Neji?"

Uchiha Sasuke was lost in thought, his eyes flashing as if talking to himself.

Generally speaking, the basic ninjutsu of transformation is usually used to steal intelligence or carry out disguised sneak attacks.

And the state shown by Neji, or "fake Neji", refusing contact and communication, obviously cannot be applied to the above two assumptions.

"So, I'm not completely sure. Maybe it's puppetry? Manipulation? Or some kind of illusion?!"

Tiantian became more and more anxious as he spoke, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.

What couldn't be hidden was the worry for Hinata Neji.

Obviously, the girl was tormented by the twists and turns of the long-awaited reunion and the sudden changes.

So, you are really not suitable for falling in love, Neji.

Looking at Tiantian's appearance, Uchiha Sasuke sighed helplessly in his heart.

At first, Yuexia stopped me once, and now, it happened again.

Come to think of it, I and Neji are both the same person.

Covered in mud and precarious, they are, in a way, two desperadoes.

Those who do great things do not regret their own lives.

Why do guys like us get involved in such a strong bond?

This is not harmful, so what could it be?

Thinking of this, Sasuke couldn't help but recall the discussion about love with Neji in the medicinal bath spring water.

//

——"Is a person like me worthy of falling in love?"

——"You are not worthy of love, why did you provoke her in the first place?"

——“However, things like feelings cannot be planned. It just happens.

"When it happens to you, it's like fate. No matter you or another person, when in love, everyone is equally helpless."

——“Nonsense!

"Can I still be my own master?

"Anyway, if I don't think it through completely, I won't take the initiative to provoke any girl."

——"One day, when you really meet that person, I'll see how you can still be tough with me!"

//

"Don't panic."

Uchiha Sasuke came to his senses and said indifferently.

After a pause, he added:

"The more times this happens, the less you can panic."

Uchiha Sasuke calmed down and continued to reason.
