When Hyuga Hizashi left, he took most of the members of the clan with him, including Hizashi, whose mission was to protect him at all times.
The Hyuga tribe suddenly became a lot deserted, and most of the people seen on the streets were old, weak, women and children.
Not long after Hizu left, Ayano took the initiative to come to the door.
"Sister Ayano?!" Zhen looked at Ayano standing outside her door with a surprised look on her face.
She was wearing a snow-white dress, which looked more innocent than before. Her long hair was still carefully pulled into a bun, making her look beautiful and elegant.
"You...why are you here?"
"Why, I'm not welcome here?" Ayano said with a gentle smile, holding a paper bag in her hand.
"Welcome! Of course you are welcome! Come in quickly!"
Zhen gave way and let Ayano enter her room.
The messy bedroom scene of a teenage boy that she had in mind did not appear, which made Ayano secretly sigh with relief.
But a dog jumped out of nowhere and startled her.
"Sister Ayano, this is Sibi." Zhen introduced.
"The dog you raised is so cute!" Ayano looked at the white dog circling around her and bent down to hold it in her arms with surprise on her face.
"Yes, Sister Ayari also likes it very much. Please take a seat."
Ayano sat on the sofa and chuckled: "I didn't expect to be such a caring person."
"No way, it's just boring to be alone." Zhen said with an honest smile.
Ayano put the dog aside and handed over the paper bag: "I brought you some food."
"I see that you like snacks. Eating too much of those things is not good for your health, so I made some pastries and snacks myself."
I really took it and opened it, and there were several boxes containing snacks neatly placed inside. The packaging and style were very exquisite, and it looked like they were carefully thought out.
"Sister Ayano, this..." Zhen looked touched.
"You're so good to me!"
Ayano smiled and said: "Silly boy, since you call me sister, I will naturally do what a sister should do. I just put the things in the refrigerator and take them out when I want to eat."
Zhen nodded and put the things in the refrigerator.
Ayano laughed when she saw this: "I didn't ask you to release it now, you can taste it first."
Zhen scratched his head and said with a smile: "The food made by Sister Ayano must be delicious, I have to taste it."
Ayano felt that the truth was too upright, and she caught a glimpse of the books on the desk.
"Are you reading a book?"
"Ah, if you have nothing to do, just watch something."
This is a book about the acupuncture points of the human body. For Hyuga practitioners, it is a required course before practicing Rouquan. The acupuncture points of the human body's meridians must be kept in mind.
Ayano glanced at it and didn't pay attention, thinking that he just took it out for review.
"Really, I have something to tell you."
"Sister Ayano, please tell me."
"It's about your eyes."
Zhen Wenyan's expression immediately became nervous, and this change was fully visible to Ayano.
She said slowly: "The hospital suddenly said that the white eyes that were originally adapted to you were found to have some problems after examination."
Zhen asked in confusion: "What... does this mean?"
"In other words, you need to be re-selected to replace the Byakugan. But now that Nizu is on the front line again, it will be difficult to perform the eye-replacement surgery without the clan leader. Do you understand?"
He really stood there stunned for a long time, his eyes showing a dark look.
"The war situation is tense now, and Rizu must go..."
"I understand!" Zhen suddenly interrupted Ayano.
"I understand Ayano-sama, I'm just a chuunin, how can you delay Hiashi-sama because of my affairs."
When he said this, his tone was full of disappointment, but he seemed to be trying to cheer up.
Ayano nodded and said, "It's best if you think so."
She then comforted her: "When the war is over, Rizu will definitely replace your white eyes when he comes back!"
Zhen Wenyan's eyes were filled with hope again: "Yeah! I know!"
Ayano smiled to herself when she saw him looking like this. Children are so easy to coax.
Then he chatted with Zhen about some life matters, expressed his concern for him, and then stood up and left.
"Sister Ayano, please walk slowly."
Ayano didn't go far when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a short white hair stuck to her sleeve. It belonged to the dog. She couldn't help but frown slightly and did not touch it.
Turning her head and looking back, she saw that Zhen was still standing at the door looking at her. Ayano had a gentle smile on her face again and waved to him.
When I really returned to my room, I didn't read any more, but just lay down on the bed.
Sibi also jumped on the bed and lay on his stomach.
The first step has been accomplished for the time being.
Rizu will not kill him. If he dies in the current situation, he will undoubtedly point all the fingers at the clan.
But without the shackles on his body, he has undoubtedly added a spotlight to himself, and no matter what he does, he will attract extra attention.
After a war, there is a high probability that Hinata will be killed, which means that Hinata may bring back a pair of white eyes from the battlefield.
Freedom is not permanent.
By the afternoon.
Maybe the news spread that Hizu had left the village, and a visitor came to the Hinata family.
This person still went out of his way to find the truth.
Zhen looked at Hongdou who was brought to his home by his tribe, his eyes moved slightly.
She said coyly: "Well... I want to treat you to dinner. How about barbecue?"
Zhen calmly said: "Did you invite me?"
"Ah? Um... um! I'll pay for it!"
He walked out of the room and closed the door behind him.
"Stop eating barbecue and go eat dumplings."
"Eh?" Hongdou was slightly startled when he heard this, and then his face lit up with joy.
"You also like to eat dumplings?"
"I just want to eat suddenly, let's go."
The two walked out of the Hyuga tribe and were led by Anko on the street. She said she knew which dango shop was the best.
However, Hongdou turned his head to look at Zhen from time to time, as if he was hesitant to speak.
The child couldn't hide her worries, Zhen could see it at a glance, but he didn't take the initiative to ask, and followed her into a dumpling shop.
When she saw something she liked to eat, Hongdouchi's mood became active again, so she took the menu and ticked all the boxes.
Anyway, I have the money given by Orochimaru-sama.
"Is there anything you want to eat?" Hongdou raised his head and asked Zhen.
"Just keep an eye on it."
"The three-color dumplings here are delicious, and the red bean dumplings are also delicious. I ordered them all for you."
Zhen sat across from me with his chin in his hands and looked at her little face, holding the menu in her hand, thinking hard. It seemed that she felt she had ordered too many items and was reluctant to cross out any items.
"You love sweets so much, aren't you afraid of getting fat?"
"I won't be fat."
"If you become fat, you won't be able to get married."
Hongdou immediately became angry when he heard this and said angrily: "How can you say such rude words to a girl!"
Several plates of dumplings were served, and Hong Dou immediately forgot all her worries, grabbing a bunch in one hand and started to devour them.
There were very few customers in the open-air shop, and he and Hongdou, the two children, looked even more special.
It's rare to see people dressed as ninjas on the streets nowadays. It's probably only true that they could still be so leisurely during wartime.
He was gently stroking the teacup in his hand, looking along the street to no one knows where he was looking.
"real?"
"Are we already so familiar? Let's call each other by our first names."
"You can also call me Hongdou."
Zhendan laughed, looked at Anko and saw that her mouth was full of sweet sauce, so she casually took out a tissue and handed it over.
After Anko wiped her mouth, she stopped eating the dumplings and sat there with a hesitant look on her face, as if she couldn't find any good reason to speak.
"Do you know who my teacher is?" she asked dryly.
Really weird: "I don't know."
Anko immediately became energetic: "My teacher is Lord Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas!"
It’s so casual and perfunctory: “Wow, that’s amazing.”
red beans:"……"
Anko frowned, feeling that the guy in front of her didn't seem to respect her teacher.
According to her opinion, after knowing that she was Lord Orochimaru's disciple, she should have looked at her with reverence, asked her about various deeds of Lord Orochimaru, and finally asked her if she could take him to see Lord Orochimaru.
one side.
Why is reality different from imagination?
She could only continue to ask: "Don't you want to meet Lord Orochimaru?"
Zhen asked back: "Did Lord Orochimaru ask you to say that?"
Hongdou looked surprised: "How do you know?"
Looking at Hongdou's innocent look, I feel that I feel more comfortable dealing with children.
Simplicity is still simplicity.
"Eat the dumplings quickly, they will get cold soon."
"Oh! I forgot!"
After eating the dumplings, Zhen followed Anko to meet Orochimaru.
On the way, Anko kept talking about how great her teacher was and her various glorious deeds as a Sannin.
I just listened. A lot of what Hongdou said, whether exaggerated or not, was unknown to him.
Orochimaru's residence is a relatively remote single-family house, and the street in front of the door is sparsely populated.
Hongdou didn't knock on the door, he just trotted in, shouting at the same time.
"Lord Orochimaru! I've brought Shin!"
I really didn't want to be as casual as she was. After entering the living room, I just stood quietly.
Not long after, someone slowly walked out of the room.
I didn't look up immediately, I only saw him wearing homely black clothes and a slender figure.
The man came to a stop not far in front of Zhen. Hongdou immediately leaned over and gently stroked Hongdou's head with his hand.
"I've met Lord Orochimaru." Zhen greeted.
"Yeah." He responded dully, his voice was slightly hoarse, as if a thin line was passing through the paper, which made people's ears very uncomfortable.
Anko was still a little jumpy, as if she was showing off to Zhen: "Lord Orochimaru is the future Hokage!"
When Zhen heard this, he raised his head in surprise and said, "Really? But how did I hear that the next Hokage is Namikaze Minato-sama?"
As soon as these words came out, the room instantly became quiet.
After a while, I really heard that hoarse voice again.
