When Zhen returned to her residence, she saw Hinata Ayari lying lazily on her sofa, with a pure white pet dog lying in her arms.
She is much older than she really is, and has reached adulthood. Her appearance is roughly similar to that of Hinata Ayano, but her temperament is more bland.
Zhen walked over and poured himself a glass of water, then sat down on the other side of the sofa.
"I remembered to lock the door."
"Am I not welcome?"
Ayari glanced at him with a dull expression, and kept stroking the dog's soft hair with one hand.
That white dog was owned by Zhen in the past, and Ayari often went to his house to play with it because she liked it very much.
Before going to the battlefield, Zhen gave Hinata Ayari the key to her house, originally hoping that she would occasionally help clean her room.
In my memory, the relationship between the two of them was very close, and they lived next to each other. I once really had a lot of admiration for this beautiful sister.
But it can only be a longing, Ayari and her sister are already engaged, and the other party is Hinata Hinashi's brother.
It is normal for young people to have admiration for women who are older and more outstanding than themselves. Perhaps Ayari has discovered this a long time ago, but did not take it seriously.
There is a big age difference between the two. Ayari may have a child in two years, but she is really still a little kid who doesn't understand anything.
"Sibi."
Upon hearing Shin's call, the dog that was originally lying in Ayari's arms immediately got up and ran towards Shin, rubbing his legs flatteringly, and was picked up by Shin with one hand and placed on his legs.
Seeing that the dog was called away, Ayari looked helpless. She slowly sat up and threw her long hair behind her shoulders. She looked at Zhen quietly petting the dog and couldn't help but have a complicated expression in her eyes.
.
After my neighbor came back from the battlefield, his temperament suddenly changed drastically. He gave people a completely different impression than before. He became silent and withdrawn. In the past, he would always run to her when nothing happened, which sometimes made her angry.
Its annoying.
But after he came back, he didn't take the initiative to find me again, and he didn't have much chat with him, and he didn't even say a word to him about what happened on the battlefield.
She learned from her tribe that all her real teammates died in a mission, and only he survived, and even his own eyes were destroyed.
Is this such a huge blow? Ayari felt pity.
War is cruel and there is nothing to be done about it.
She took the initiative to raise the topic: "Have you met Lord Minato?"
"Um."
"How are others?"
"Just like the legend."
"I heard that he is likely to be the next Hokage."
"I heard that too."
"...Is Minato-sama easy to get along with?"
"It's quite kind."
The conversation came to an end in just a few words. With Namikaze Minato's reputation now at the height of his popularity in Konoha, most people would talk endlessly about his heroic deeds, but it seemed that he had no interest in continuing the conversation.
Ayari felt helpless and considered whether to leave right away. At this moment, Jin asked for no reason: "Are there many Byakugan left in the clan?"
The change of topic was so sudden that Ayari didn't react for a while: "There are quite a few..."
Then she thought about it carefully and added: "The clan members of the past dynasties will leave their white eyes intact when they die. Some outstanding members of our branch family will also have their white eyes removed by the successive clan leaders before their death. These white eyes will be passed through special
If it is sealed using this method, the number accumulated over the generations will definitely be quite large.”
"Where are these eyes kept?" Zhen asked again.
"How do I know this? Only Rizu-sama and the people responsible for managing it will know." Ayari laughed.
After saying that, she felt strange again and asked Xiang Zhen, "Why are you asking these questions?"
Although it is rare for the Hyuga clan to replace their Byakugan, there have been many cases in the past. If a clan member's eye is injured in battle or suffers from some eye disease, the clan will prepare for him to change his eyes. Therefore, in the Hyuga clan
Among them, there have never been blind people.
It's just that this is the first time that the Byakugan was destroyed due to the activation of the Caged Bird Seal.
Zhen said calmly: "It's nothing, I'm just going to change my eyes soon, but I don't know whose eyes I will use, so I feel very strange. I was wondering if I could observe those eyes before that."
Ayari thought it was ridiculous and said, "What's so interesting about this? They're all human eyeballs. They must be scary."
After she said that, she felt it was inappropriate. Considering Zhen's current situation, it was understandable that she seemed to be very concerned about this kind of thing.
After pondering for a moment, Ayari added: "This kind of thing probably requires the consent of Mr. Rizu."
She felt that she was really worried about her eyes. She was indeed worried about this matter, but it was completely different from what Ayari thought.
As a wealthy family in Konoha, the Hyuga clan's symbol is the blood-step child technique unique to the entire ninja world, the Byakugan.
This is an honor for the Hyuga family.
But I really want to get rid of it.
Hinata wanted to put the Byakugan on him again in order to put the Caged Bird Curse Seal on him again so that he could be shackled.
Otherwise, why would a member of the branch clan with mediocre strength and qualifications make Hyuga Hizatsu go through so much trouble to convene a meeting with the clan's senior leaders for discussion?
How can we avoid all this...
At present, he is absolutely unable to fight against the entire Hyuga clan with his own strength.
It's a pity that he doesn't have the system in third-rate novels where you can become stronger by sleeping with a woman. His only advantage is his understanding of the world and the direction of history. If you don't get rid of this fate, no matter how strong you become, you will have to suffer.
Control?
"real?"
Zhen raised his head and met Ayari's gaze. Her crystal-white eyes were as warm as water, staring at him motionlessly.
"What are you worried about?" she asked.
What is he worried about? There are so many white eyes in the clan, and there must be someone suitable for him. Besides, there is nothing to worry about since the clan is so concerned about his affairs. Shouldn't he be flattered by this?
Ayali didn't understand. She looked at Zhen's dark eyes. Was it because she didn't belong to him that her gaze was so strange...
Sibi, who was lying on Zhen's legs, raised his head and glanced at the two of them, then lowered his head and continued to enjoy Zhen's touch.
It was so quiet in the room that you could hear the hands of the wall clock ticking away.
Zhenzhen sighed softly: "Sister Ayari."
Ayari was slightly startled when she heard this. She didn't often hear him call her that since Zhen came back.
"I just don't know what the future will be like." Zhen Jing said.
Ayari was speechless, looking at the young man who was full of thoughts, and said after a long silence: "Don't worry, there must be a Byakugan who can suit you... If you want to go and see it, I will ask Hizashi to help you and be more careful.
of."
"Thank you Ayari-san."
Ayari just laughed: "Don't think so much, just rest in peace during this time."
