Chapter 2 Crux

 "What's going on? Is there a bug in my administrator mode?"

It was evening, and Toru Watanabe stared at the administrator interface with red eyes.

The 0 after the number of people online really stimulated him!

One day passed, and there was not a single user connected to the ‘terminal’!

"Don't today's ninjas even have basic curiosity?"

For a moment, Tetsu Watanabe couldn't figure out what the problem was. In order to popularize the technique of infinite interconnection, he had simplified it into a fool's operation!

As long as there is some basic training, even ninja students can learn it within an hour.

Toru Watanabe quit the administrator and switched to user mode, and tried sending messages to his other vests, and there was no problem!

"It's not a matter of technique...it's a matter of people!"

Watanabe Toru exhaled a long breath. He was confident in his skills.

He can improve the technical problems, but what is the human problem...how to solve it?

Just when Toru Watanabe was gritting his teeth and thinking about how to deal with the person, there was a knock on the door.

The young man frowned slightly and felt the door, confirming that it was a familiar smell. He rubbed his face to calm his expression.

"Watanabe-kun, you are indeed still here!"

The door opened and saw Toru Watanabe appearing. The girl at the door was obviously relieved.

Through the light from indoors and outside, you can see the girl's face clearly.

Her long lavender hair was tied into a ponytail, and her face was as white as a cherry blossom with a faint blush. She was sixteen or seventeen years old, and even a navy blue ninja uniform couldn't hide her beautiful figure.

The girl's clear eyes are purer than black gemstones, with curved eyebrows and gently trembling eyelashes.

The sight of small lips as thin as rose petals makes people happy.

I didn’t look at it too much. Toru Watanabe has long been used to being in the same team for a long time.

"What's wrong, Xiyan?"

The young man was a little confused, not knowing why the other party would be looking for him at this time.

"You really forgot!"

Mao Yue Xiyan's eyes widened slightly, staring into the boy's eyes and reminding:

"Today is the seventeenth, the day of the fourteenth..."

The ending sounds long!

Snap!

Watanabe Toru patted his forehead and passed by the other party to remind him that he remembered it!

The 14th was the day their captain was discharged from the hospital. The team had made an appointment to have a dinner three days later...

"Kusao! I completely forgot!"

Sure enough, I have been so obsessed with my career these days that I have completely forgotten about it!

It's a pity that even though he is so dedicated, things did not develop satisfactorily at all.

"Sorry, I've been out of shape for the past few days. I forgot such an important thing. I have to trouble Xiyan to remind you. I'm really sorry!"

Toru Watanabe sincerely apologizes.

"Not bad."

Watanabe Toru's reaction made Uzuki Xiyan a little embarrassed.

Shaking her head slightly, the girl then reminded:

"I made an appointment with the captain to the newly opened barbecue restaurant on the commercial street. It's still half an hour away, so I should be able to make it."

"I'm really sorry to trouble you. Please come in and wait a moment while I pack up and leave immediately!"

Watanabe Tetsuya breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that there was still time.

In the last mission, their team was ambushed. Captain Morino Ihiki left to cover them, but was unfortunately controlled by the enemy after being injured.

Afterwards, the two struggled to find an opportunity to rescue him, but the other party was severely tortured by the enemy and had to enter the hospital for treatment.

"Then I'm sorry to bother you!"

Maoyue Xiyan entered the room, and the messy scene inside made the girl who was used to being clean stunned for a moment.

After finally finding a seat to sit down, the girl looked around the room before she dared to let out a breath quietly.

She found that Toru Watanabe's room was not messy in the traditional sense, it was just that the room was too small and there were too many things.

"Sure enough, a reliable person like Watanabe-kun can't live a messy life."

Recalling those persevering eyes, it was clear that the situation was desperate but there was always hope.

If it weren't for Toru Watanabe, not to mention the captain didn't come out of the last mission, I'm afraid she would have fallen into it.

Every time she thought of the way the opponent grabbed the enemy's ninja sword and blocked it with his body, she couldn't explain how she felt.

He is obviously a guy who is called a cold-blooded executioner, but when you really come into contact with him, you will find that it is just the mask that is cold-blooded, and the person behind the mask is actually very gentle...

"Sorry for the long wait!"

Toru Watanabe changed his clothes and came out to interrupt the girl's meditation.

"No, I still have plenty of time!"

Mao Yue Xi Yan came back to her senses.

Watanabe Toru has changed his loose house clothes into a blue ninja outfit, and is also wearing Konoha's ninja forehead protector.

If you take a closer look, in terms of appearance alone, Toru Watanabe is unexpectedly outstanding. Among his peers, he is not inferior to anyone at all.

Moreover, the other party also has a unique sense of maturity. He is not as frivolous as his peers, but has a calm mind like a mystery.

"Let's go!"

Soon, the two arrived at the BBQ restaurant they had reserved. Not long after, Morino arrived later than Kiya Shanshan.

Morino Ihiki is still a young man in his early twenties, but his slightly older face looks like he is in his thirties.

There are two long scars from his forehead to his chin. Because the healing time is still short, the blood of new flesh can be vaguely seen, which makes his already serious face look even more ferocious.

The three of them arrived, and soon a clerk came over to inquire.

"Beef short ribs, beef tongue each, some tender shoulder meat, and corn, grill it and add more cumin..."

Toru Watanabe is skilled in ordering food, and he never puts himself in trouble when it comes to food.

"In addition to corn, give me a piece of whatever he wants!"

Morino Hiki said, anyway, he likes all meat dishes.

Rather than spending time studying recipes at a new store, it is better to trust the choices of subordinates. After all, Toru Watanabe's taste is still trustworthy.

"I want a beef short rib..."

Maoyue Xiyan has an average appetite. After ordering a steak, she thought about ordering another oden.

After all, it is a dinner party to celebrate the recovery of the captain. If everyone eats separately, the atmosphere will be a bit lacking, but oden can be shared together.

"Oden cooking requires kelp, white radish, enoki mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and less miso..."

After Maoyue Xiyan finished ordering, she asked for something lighter.

Morino Hiki is recovering from a serious injury, but she feels that strong-flavored ingredients are not suitable.

Soon, the food arrived one after another, and the three of them said in unison, "It's time to start." Then they picked up their chopsticks.

"The village is getting more and more lively, and many new shops like this have opened recently!"

Halfway through the meal, Maoyue Xiyan felt a little emotional when he saw that the seats next to him were all filled with guests.

"This is what it means for us to be ninjas..."

Morino Ihiki's voice is a little deep, and there is no doubt about his feelings for the village.

Being able to resist betraying information under severe torture shows how strong his determination to protect the village is.

After another toast to celebrate, everyone chatted about the mission and the future.

Halfway through the meal, the atmosphere was harmonious.

But soon the louder and louder arguments at the next table attracted their attention.

"That technique must be fake. Even such a cheap prank can fool you. Qingshan-kun, you obviously look so mature, but you don't want to be so naive!"

A young man wearing a Konoha forehead protector laughed loudly, and several people around him also smiled. Only a young ninja with a beard on the table did not speak.

Obviously, he should be the mature Aoyama-kun who was teased.

"Jiu Mu, I have studied that technique. Your so-called kid's prank, whether it is the technique described in it or the changes in chakra circulation, is theoretically feasible."

The young man known as Qingshanjun had a deep voice and still insisted on his own opinions.

He also doesn't believe that the 'Infinite Internet Technique' can really achieve unlimited communication regardless of distance, but from the perspective of the ninjutsu itself, this technique is indeed established.

As for the effect of the technique, guessing without practice is obviously unreliable.

Ninjutsu, whether for ninjas or ordinary people, is a topic that will never go out of style.

Soon, more and more people around joined the discussion.

"The art of infinite interconnection? Just by the name, you know it's unreliable. I don't understand what's so controversial about it!"

Some people shook their heads and directly denied it.

"How could such a powerful jutsu be spread casually? I heard before that the uncle of the classmate of the boy next door to my neighbor's house picked up a paper dumpling with ninjutsu written on it on the way home. Isn't that what it is?

The art of infinite interconnection, right?"

Some people laughed and told the anecdotes they had heard, but they obviously did not believe that there would be good things happening in the sky.

"There is Ninjutsu written on the paper dumpling? There is also a piece of paper on the balcony on the third floor of my house. I looked at the messy drawings on it, so I just threw it away without paying much attention!"

A middle-aged man took a picture of his thigh. He is just an ordinary person. He didn’t expect to be involved in the topic of ninjas today!

"It must be a prank by the kiddies. The kiddies nowadays are so lawless. I heard a few days ago that a kid wanted to carve words on Shadow Rock. Fortunately, he was discovered in time, otherwise..."

Everyone was tut-tutting, and the conversation began to shift from ninjutsu to recent anecdotes.

When he heard that the fruits of his labor were thrown away as waste paper, Toru Watanabe felt as if someone had stabbed him in the chest.

He had a livid face and said nothing until the conversation began to stray. He ignored the frustration in his heart and became anxious!

Topicity is always the best publicity, and he cannot waste the opportunity in front of him.

So he suddenly spoke a little abruptly:

"You are so curious about the infinite interconnection technique, why hasn't anyone tried it?"

Watanabe Toru's words caused a sudden silence in the lobby.

Someone soon reacted and retorted:

"How can you try something incomprehensible? What if it's dangerous!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone agreed.

"Yes, that infinite interconnection technique is probably the enemy's conspiracy. I tried it and fell directly into the enemy's illusion!"

Suddenly, a middle-aged ninja warned loudly.

"I reported this matter to the police a long time ago. I just didn't want this technique to spread so widely. In order to prevent someone from being curious and trying it, I didn't want to say it at first, but I couldn't help it!"

After saying this, the middle-aged ninja stared at Toru Watanabe.

"Come on, tell me, what's wrong with that technique?"

Everyone's curiosity was suddenly aroused. I didn't expect there to be such a brave person in this crowd!

"That technique can read people's memories!"

The middle-aged ninja's voice was serious, with a hint of panic in his eyes!

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Reading memories, what a terrible method! It not only destroys a person physically, but also destroys a person psychologically!

"What's going on?"

Everyone gathered together and became more curious about the details.

The middle-aged ninja closed his eyes and recalled:

"After I completed the technique, an illusory scroll suddenly appeared in front of me..."

"Scroll?"

Everyone's eyes widened.

"That's right!"

Nodding, the middle-aged ninja continued:

"The scroll doesn't really exist, it must be an illusion. I followed the instructions above. It said that users should fill in their identity information when logging in for the first time..."

"When filling in the identity information, the first item is to ask me to give me a nickname as my online logo, so that I can easily check, add friends and communicate with others!"

"Uh, what's the problem with this?"

Some people make associations based on what the middle-aged people said, but even if they don’t actually see it, they can’t imagine what it was like at that time.

"Yes, there is indeed no problem until now. I didn't find anything unusual at the time, but..."

As he spoke, the middle-aged ninja's expression became increasingly ugly.

"It's just that when I was thinking about how to fill in the nickname, what I was thinking actually turned into text and appeared in the box!"

"Hiss!"

Everyone gasped!

"Understand, that infinite interconnection technique is an evil trap, it will read your inner thoughts!"

"Once this technique is practiced by more people, what secrets can we have in Konoha!"

"That's it!"

Everyone nodded, with a touch of excitement on their faces, as if they had witnessed the conspiracy against the village being bravely destroyed by them!

"Kusao!"

On the side, Toru Watanabe was dumbfounded. No wonder the number of users was still 0 at the end of the day. It turned out that the crux was here!

Filling in the information card requires consciously touching the input box. After touching the input box, the user's ideological information will be converted into text and displayed until the user's consciousness leaves the input box!

For such an advanced thing as the consciousness input method, Watanabe Toru lost a lot of hair in the beginning. I didn’t expect that in the end it would not only have no effect but scare the customers away!
