Chapter 1148 Letter from Orochimaru
Following Clara all the way to the kitchen, Kushina rolled up her arms and sleeves, and was about to ask Clara what she was going to do and what she needed to prepare, when Clara suddenly stopped...
Slowly turning her head, Clara took a deep breath, looked at Kushina who was following her and said with a serious face, "Little girl, listen, if possible, try not to mention it in front of Little Ashes.
The fireproof girl thing... I don’t want to see anyone use this thing to irritate him anymore.”
Hearing Clara's words, Kushina couldn't help being stunned. She stared at Clara with big eyes and took a step back at a loss.
"Um...great teacher, what do you mean...by saying this?"
Looking at Kushina who was a little nervous, Clara sighed softly and said, "Don't be nervous...little girl, I don't mean to blame you. It's not an exaggeration to be ignorant. I just ask you not to mention the matter of the fire prevention girl again.
This matter has nothing to do with you... Do you understand?"
Looking at the smiling Clara, Kushina nodded slightly, and then asked curiously, "I understand, I will tell them. So now..."
"It's better to cook the food now. Just pay a little more attention. Little Ashes... isn't that fragile yet."
…
It didn't take long for Kushina to return to the living room with a few plates of food with an ugly face. She placed the very exquisite-looking dishes on the table that had a hole smashed by the ashes, and revealed a smile to the ashes.
The expression that I really tried my best...
Hui Jin cleared his throat, smiled reluctantly at the other people in the room and said, "Come on, you may not be able to taste the great teacher's craftsmanship in this life, come and try it. I guarantee that you will... in this life."
I’ll never forget it!”
Everyone present, except Ashes, was a ninja. They were more proficient in observing words and expressions. After noticing Kushina's somewhat ugly expression and the seriousness on Ashes' face, almost everyone looked at the table.
I have an idea of the quality of the food served, except for one person...
"Really? Let me try it. Grandpa Ashes, don't you know? In the past three years, we can only eat some wild vegetables and animals every day, but it is really going to kill me! Then I'm not polite.
!”
After saying this, Naruko picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat that looked like fried pork slices, but she didn't know what it really was and stuffed it into her mouth...
As the unknown object on the chopsticks was stuffed into her mouth, Naruko's face tensed up, and the hand holding the chopsticks began to tremble slightly...
Ashes suddenly stretched out her hand and slapped Naruko on the back, causing her to swallow the contents of her mouth directly into her stomach.
Looking at Naruko who swallowed the unknown object directly, Hui Jin forced out an ugly smile and said, "How is it? Does it taste good?"
Naruko turned her head tremblingly, looking at Hui Jin's pretty face if you dare to say it doesn't taste good, she nodded slightly and said with a stumbling voice, "Okay...it's delicious. It's true."
…impressive…"
Nodding with satisfaction, Hui Jin smiled at the others sitting around the dining table and said, "Come on, everyone use chopsticks!"
Seeing the threat in Hui Jin's eyes, everyone looked embarrassed, but the current situation is that Hui Jin has tied all of them to the torture rack, and there is no way to escape even if they want to...
As the top disciple of Ashes, Jing still picked up the chopsticks, smiled at the others and said, "Then we... you're welcome..."
Others reluctantly started to eat a table of 'delicious food...'
In just three strokes, five divided by two, these top ninjas ate all the food on the table, and their faces looked even more ugly than the others.
The old Sarutobi felt that the first generation and the second generation were calling him...
Looking at the empty plates on the table with satisfaction, Ashes, who didn't pick up his chopsticks the whole time, breathed a sigh of relief and said softly to Sarutobi, "For the sake of your performance, this matter is over for now."
…I forgive you.”
While stroking his stomach, Sarutobi nodded slightly and said, "Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, then... Ashes-sama, please do it yourself. I am getting older, and my body is getting worse day by day... I may have to go to the hospital.
It’s a trip.”
After saying this, Sarutobi stood up tremblingly, and the other people at the table also stood up, following behind Sarutobi, who seemed to be going to the hospital...
Not long after, Kushina and Clara returned to the living room from the kitchen. Looking at the table that was like a whirlwind of clouds, and the ashes sitting alone at the table, Clara tilted her head in confusion and asked, "Oh.
?Have you all finished eating? Where are they?"
Hui Jin laughed sarcastically and said helplessly, "I'm... a busy person. I went back after eating. When I left, I kept praising the delicious food you cooked, Teacher!"
Looking at the empty plates on the table, Clara sighed melancholy and said, "But Kushina hasn't eaten yet, how about I make some more?"
Hearing Clara's words, Kushina hurriedly shook her head and said, "No... no need, I'm losing weight recently. If you don't eat dinner, I won't bother you, Teacher..."
"All right…"
Kushina let out a long breath, then sat next to Ashes, looking at Ashes who had never changed in decades, she sighed softly and said, "Uncle Ashes, every time I see you for several years, you still look so young.
…It’s really enviable.”
Looking at Kushina who had grown into a big girl, Hui Jin smiled slightly, reached out and touched Kushina's long bright red hair, and said with a gentle face, "It's nothing, and I actually envy you...at least your life."
It is complete. It will not be like me, slowly eroding itself in endless time..."
After taking a deep look at Ashes, Kushina smiled broadly and said, "Uncle Ashes is still the same, always saying mysterious things!"
Standing up, Kushina smiled at Ashes and said, "I will take my leave today. Uncle, you must come to our house when you have time and let me entertain you well."
After saying that, Kushina nodded gently to Ashes, climbed out of the window and left...
Looking at Kushina's retreating figure, Ashes showed a nostalgic look. She was still that wild girl. Although she was now Mrs. Hokage, she still looked carefree...
After everyone left, Clara came to Ashes, looked at Ashes and asked with a serious face, "How are you now? Did you remember anything? Do you understand why you showed signs of turning into a living corpse?"
Looking at the worried Clara, Hui Jin shook her head gently, smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "No, I can't think of anything, and it's not just that, the feeling is getting stronger, the more I feel
Thinking about it, the more uncomfortable I feel, this feeling... really drives me crazy!"
After saying this, Hui Jin raised his head and looked at the darkening sky outside the window. After being silent for a long time, he said lightly, "I should remember, I should remember many things. I made some plans in this world at the beginning, but now...
But I can't remember anything. Now I can't remember anything except knowing which two children, Naruko and Sasuke, have the souls of two Shinohs."
Hearing Hui Jin's words, Clara frowned slightly and asked with a serious face, "You said... you can't remember anything? I remember you said that you have lived here for several decades. In these decades,
Have you forgotten what happened?"
Shaking his head gently, Hui Jin smiled bitterly and said, "No, I still remember everything I did, but I can't remember why or what made me do those things."
At this moment, a gust of wind came. Hui Jin frowned slightly, tilted his head in confusion and whispered softly, "Hmm~ It's someone I don't know? Is he from ANBU?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man with short white hair suddenly appeared in front of Ashes. He looked like an ordinary ninja, the kind of ninja that can be seen everywhere on the street...
Looking at the sudden appearance of this person, Hui Jin frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you? Who sent you here?"
The young man stretched out his hand to hold the glasses hanging on his face, smiled at Hui Jin and said, "Master Hui Jin, you are so forgetful..."
Tilting his head slightly, Hui Jin asked in surprise, "What? Have I seen you?"
"Yes, I was lucky enough to meet you in Lord Orochimaru's research base in the Land of Waves. Have you forgotten?"
Hearing this, Ashes couldn't help but be startled, and suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a little white-haired kid named Yakushi Kabuto following Orochimaru at that time.
"So...Orochimaru asked you to come to me?"
Yakushi Kabuto nodded slightly, took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Ashes and said, "Yes, Lord Orochimaru learned about your return and asked me to forward this letter to
I only had the opportunity to come to you after you, the Third Hokage, and the others left. I’m really sorry..."
Hearing this, Hui Jin frowned slightly. This kid...has been nearby? But why didn't he notice him?
Stretching out his hand and taking the letter handed to him by the pharmacist, Hui Jin casually opened the envelope, unfolded the letter and read it carelessly~
'Gui'an, Lord Ashes has not been seen for many days. I have sent people to search for traces of you and the missing fire prevention lady, but nothing was found. It is just when Lord Ashes returns to Konoha, and I cannot meet Lord Ashes in person. It's extremely difficult.
Pity…'
There were some polite words throughout, but there were no key points. Ashes glanced at Yakushi Kabuto who was still kneeling in front of him. After pondering for a moment, he said lightly, "It should be more than that. Orochimaru sent you here, it should be more than just that."
Give me something as simple as sending me a letter!"
Seeing Hui Jin asking him questions, Yakushi Kabuto nodded slightly, took out a small glass bottle from his arms, and handed it to Hui Jin.
