In the room, Hanami Akira, who was thought to have fallen asleep by Mr. Nohara, opened his eyes and quietly extended a little mental energy to eavesdrop.

He originally thought that the adults were going to say something serious, but he didn't expect to hear such trivial things.

It seems that this is not something that needs to be kept secret. The barrier is just for safety reasons and not to disturb their rest.

'Speaking of which, if you want to find a way to pierce this layer of window paper, it's best for a stupid young man to go directly to the Star Shadow. It's a pity that we don't have the guts of Naruto among us.'

'Or should I persuade Kakashi to communicate with the leader? But Kakashi may not believe it, and as someone who has been in the ANBU for so many years, Kakashi is not that naive, and I am afraid he will not be willing to cause trouble.

'

Hua Jianming suddenly felt regretful.

Why did he arrange so many barriers so carefully just now?

If there was no barrier arranged, he might be able to use illusions to hint Sasuke or Naoko and let them "inadvertently" tell the truth.

However, now he is the only one who knows the "truth".

It would be too fake to drag the other two people into the water at this time.

Hanajianming thought for a while, simulated various situations, and thought and speculated from the perspectives of different people.

If he leaked the information directly in front of the star ninja, it could be interpreted as out of sympathy and vindication. If he leaked the information in front of "friends", it would appear that he had no sense of confidentiality and lacked ninja quality.

It's better for him to go directly!

'Loss, loss, big loss this time! You will know next time, you must leave a loophole in this kind of thing.'

Hanami Ming secretly remembered the lesson learned this time and sighed.

So far, it seems that is the only way to do it.

…

The next day, when Mr. Nohara and Mrs. Nohara were discussing the itinerary, Hanami Akira took the initiative to speak.

"Star Ninja Village is very safe, why don't we go for a walk separately? There's no point in getting together all the time."

When saying this, Hana Jianming glanced at two places intentionally or unintentionally, so that Mr. Nohara and Mrs. Nohara understood instantly.

Firstly, this is an opportunity for the two secretly awkward guys to reconcile. Secondly, Naoko has a crush on Sasuke. Isn't this a ready opportunity?

Compared to the uncle Obito, they naturally felt that it would be better for their little daughter to find someone of her own age.

Anyway, Star Ninja Village is indeed relatively safe. Even if they encounter any danger occasionally, they can send a few shadow clones to follow them and it will be enough to solve these troubles in Xiao Ninja Village.

Therefore, the two of them agreed directly without much hesitation.

"Then it's decided! My dear, I will go shopping together, you can do whatever you want!"

Mrs. Nohara held Mr. Nohara's hand, greeted him with a smile, and then the two of them left quickly.

Seeing this, Hua Jianming walked away without hesitation.

"I just saw something very interesting, so I'm going to take the first step! You two can stroll around slowly and make a date to get a feel for it!"

"???"

"Wait! What are you talking about?"

Amid Naoko's head full of questions and Sasuke's questioning, Hanami Akira's figure quickly disappeared.

"Damn it! He ran so fast!"

Sasuke looked dissatisfied, what the hell is a date?!

How is that kind of thing as important as competing with Hanami Akira?

Besides, he was also very concerned about what the "interesting things" Hua Jianming said!

"Uh...hehe, Hanami-san is indeed very fast."

Nohara Naoko smiled awkwardly.

She admitted that she was once interested in Sasuke, but now, hasn't he become a maniac?

Although looking at Sasuke's handsome face, it would be quite pleasant just to play together, but look at what the other person said?!

Sasuke obviously wanted to play with that cute boy more than she, a cute girl!

"My... I just saw that there seem to be quite a lot of drug stores here. I'm going to see what special medicines there are and buy some."

Nohara Naoko quickly used her brain and came up with a pretty good excuse.

"Sasuke-kun, you are not a medical ninja, so you probably are not interested in these things, so I will take the first step."

After saying that, she ran away without waiting for Sasuke to respond, leaving Sasuke speechless for a while.

"Am I that terrible?"

Although Sasuke didn't care about charm and other issues at all, being treated like a savage beast also made him very depressed.

"Forget it, in that case, I'll just take a walk."

Sasuke thought indifferently.

He felt that this place was much more backward than Konoha, and there was nothing interesting about it. The only feature was that the architecture of the houses here was unique, and the walls and roofs were inlaid with stones of different colors. Maybe they were the characteristic meteorites here!

"That's the only way--"

"boom!"

"Well!"

While Sasuke was looking to the side, he bumped into someone walking out of the alley beside the road, and they both fell to the ground at the same time.

'You're so careless! You let your guard down so much. I'm so lax!'

Sasuke stood up while blaming himself, and looked at the figure he knocked down. He was also a child, looking to be a few years older than him, and he stretched out his hand to help him up.

After all, he really didn't look at the road this time.

"Are you okay? Sorry, I didn't pay attention just now."

"..."

"What’s wrong with you?"

Sasuke frowned. His first reaction was that he thought he had been touched. But immediately, he noticed that something was wrong with the other party's state.

His gray hair made his skin even paler, and the cold sweat on his face was flowing down like water, and his body was trembling slightly, which obviously didn't look like he was okay.

"I...I'm fine..."

The gray boy tremblingly tried to get up, but his legs gave out and he fell to the ground.

"I'm telling you, you're so stupid for holding on even though you're not feeling well!"

Sasuke said this in disgust, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out and put the person on his shoulders.

"You're lucky, I happen to have nothing to do. Where is your hospital here?"

"No! You don't have to go to the hospital!" The boy shook his head and whispered, "Well... my home is not far away. Can you please send me there?"

"Concealing illness and avoiding medical treatment is something only idiots do."

Sasuke didn't show mercy, but still took the person directly with his hands.

After delivering the people, Sasuke was ready to leave directly.

The person was also delivered, and the reminders that needed to be said were given. It was none of his business if the other party tried to commit suicide, and he had done his best to be benevolent and righteous.

However, when he opened the door and was about to go out, the young man spoke.

"Um... may I ask, are you here with the two medical ninja masters from Konoha?"

"Yes, what's the matter with you?"

Sasuke couldn't help but be more vigilant and looked at the other party warily.

"Well, I... I want to ask the medical ninja to check me out, is that okay?"

"This is not a big problem. They are here to help you see a doctor."

Sasuke nodded, not that he directly made the decision for the adults, but that he had known such a thing for a long time.

Every time the Nohara couple came here, they would help the villagers and ninjas here with medical treatment and so on. He had heard before that they wanted Naoko to work as an assistant to gain experience!

"You can just go directly when the time comes."

"No, that...if I go there at that time, I will be known."

The gray-haired boy looked at Sasuke nervously, as if he was afraid of being rejected, and explained.

"I can pay you! It's just that I don't want others to know... If others find out that my physical condition is so poor, I may be banned from practicing secret arts! Please!"

"Huh? What's your reason for this?" Sasuke looked at the other person in surprise, "You're not in good health to begin with, so why do you want to practice such a secret technique that hurts your body? Don't you want to live anymore?"

"A secret technique that hurts the body?"

The young man was also stunned and looked at Sasuke in surprise.
