However, on the 25th of April, the Mist, Sand, and Cloud, except for the Rain, all the other villages that came to participate in the Chunin Exam left. The rain didn't stop for even a minute, which was strange. Konoha wasn't the Rain Village!
"Can't it be like the opening of the Chunin Exam, directly dispel the clouds?"
"If it's an important event like the opening ceremony, it'll be dispelled. But how many days is it raining? Affecting the weather will delay the growth of the surrounding crops. Can your research institute's weather forecast be more accurate? "
The Land of Fire Konoha Konoha Hospital
Half underground door of Naruto's ward
"No." Yaoshi Dou couldn't help the Chief of Staff, who was still blocked at the door even after moving. The research institute has the obligation to provide weather forecasts, but he now accompanies Naruto every day. Even if he changes shifts with Mute, he's making medicine or sleeping. He really didn't know what mistake his subordinates made. How dare they post a sunny day notice when the rain didn't stop. But he can't not give any explanation. The Konoha Research Institute burned more money than the intelligence system, and Genma was the boss in charge of the accounts. "In fact, the rain is good. Four Generations can get out of bed and walk around. If it's sunny, it's hard to stop him from rushing out."
Huo Xuanmen was instantly convinced by Yaoshi Dou. The hospital reported Naruto's physical condition to the senior management three times a day. Judging from the data, he was indeed recovering day by day. Fortunately, it wasn't an organic disease as suspected at the beginning. It was simply excessive fatigue and emotional agitation that hurt the heart muscle. As long as he paid attention not to be tired in the near future, and didn't suddenly become happy or sad, he would be completely fine after the heart muscle injury recovers. Of course, the heart muscle is not the thigh and ankle, and it will take a lot longer. The most important thing is that the patient feels better. "But since he can get out of bed, can I visit him? Don't forget that we are the same, and the monitor won't go off. "
"It has nothing to do with that. He needs to rest. Rest is to stay away from work, and you are the chief of staff." Dou still refused, but his tone was much softer. He and Huo Xuanmen were supposed to be two unrelated people, but this high-ranking member of Konoha had quickly become familiar with him and built up trust with him over the past few days, all because of these three simple words — no sound.
"Sir, don't you need to work?"
Genma felt that he was probably the most irresponsible Chief of Staff in the history of Konoha. He had so many things to do, but he could not focus on his work … Perhaps for seniors like Dingzhuo, Zhiwei, Shikaku Nara, and Jiraiya, the Golden Flash was their closest comrade, but for those below him, he was really their … father. For these children who basically had no relatives, and even if they had relatives who died early, who else could be the one to shelter them from the wind and rain. "Konoha Medical System has you, a genius in your early twenties, so it's not unusual for the General Staff Department to have a fifteen-year-old genius. His name is Shikamaru Nara, the son of the Minister of Intelligence, I'll introduce you to him later. "
"Okay." Dou knew that person, and they took the Chunin Exam together.
"Maybe I shouldn't have accepted the position of Chief of Staff." Genma continued, "I've been with Four Generations for so many years, and he's actually been in pain all this time. But when I was there, it wasn't like these two years, with pneumonia and tonsillitis. This time, his heart is not beating, don't you think it's scary? "
"It's scary." Dou could only agree.
"Hey, Dou." Genma suddenly lowered his voice.
"Huh?"
"Is there really no sequelae? That kind of thing … "
"It's hard to say, but I haven't found any major problems yet."
"In fact, it doesn't matter if there are sequelae." Genma finally showed a smile on his face, "After working so hard for so many years, it's good to retire and enjoy life. I thought Kakashi couldn't do it, but these days, he's doing well, at least compared to Four Generations when he first took office. Four Generations was scolded by Sandaime every day, but he still said the wrong things all the time. "
"Well." Dou really didn't know what to say. Sure enough, a spy and a native of Konoha were not on the same frequency.
Genma just patted Dou's shoulder and didn't care. Yaoshi Dou was half a level lower than him, but he was still ten years younger than him, and almost twenty years younger than Four Generations. After all, they weren't from the same generation. "Well, you've worked hard, you also have a good rest."
Dou silently watched Huo Xuanmen walk away, eating the snacks Genma gave him as he returned to the duty room. He still couldn't get used to the enthusiasm between Konoha people, but at least, next year's budget would probably make him happy for a while.
But inside the ward.
Our Naruto moved his ears, but he was a little unhappy. No Dingzhuo, no Jiraiya -sensei, no Kakashi, Genma came frequently but didn't come in … He had scolded a bunch of people before, but he didn't have time to do anything to Genma, and now Genma also disliked him. "This is so annoying … Beep."
"Dad," Naruto, who was washing the cup, hurried to the bedside, "restrain."
Watergate looked at the electrodes on his body and the heart monitor on the bedside, took a deep breath, "Sorry, it's just that cracking the ninjutsu is not very smooth."
"Then don't look at it." Naruto put away the scroll in his father's hand and didn't peek at it. Because he couldn't understand it at all. "Interesting things and relaxing things don't coincide, Dad. I really don't understand why Dou didn't help you get a few novels to pass the time. "
For the budget? Watergate didn't understand why Dou suddenly became so good to him, but these days, Genma was getting better and better with Dou. If Watergate couldn't figure out Dou's thoughts, he would have lived 20 years longer than Dou. But the information Dou brought over didn't help. He flipped through it when he felt better, but there was no clue. He knew Edo Tensei, Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, and only Spirit Transformation Jutsu was left. When he learned Thor, he didn't understand this jutsu, and now it was difficult to learn it.
"Dad!"
"Don't think about it, don't think about it." Watergate was very annoyed, but he couldn't lose his temper at Naruto. His son caught a cold to take care of him, and he didn't want to trouble his son again. This had nothing to do with whether Kina was watching him or not. He was a father, a father who was a little older but still in the prime of his life. Now he couldn't protect his son, and it was very likely that he would become a burden. He couldn't accept it. In short, weakness was like gambling. If there was one, there would be two, two, three, and three would be out of control. Watergate really regretted showing his desire in front of Jiraiya -sensei before … Someone to rely on. Otherwise, he wouldn't have …
"Dad!"
"I'm sorry." Watergate silently called Kina, Kina holding a spatula, Kina holding a spoon, and Kina holding him down. She smiled. "By the way, son, it's been raining for the past few days. Did you go back to Storm House to take a look? Remember to pluck mushrooms if they grow."
"…"
"Aiya, Naruto, why don't you go wipe your mother's photo tomorrow?" Watergate completely let go of his worries. After all, if he wanted to continue protecting his son, the first thing he had to do was to get better. "By the way, if your dad dies in the future."
"Dad!"
"I'm older than you. I'll definitely die before you." Watergate used to think that it was too early to say such things to Naruto, but this time he realized that he wasn't as reliable as he thought he was. "Don't forget to wipe it even if I die. Also, if Konoha dares to forcefully demolish my Storm House, you must remember to make trouble with Kakashi. No, Kakashi won't do that. If Kakashi's Naruto wants to demolish our house in the future, you must help me save the old house. "
"Okay." Naruto didn't like to hear his father say such things, but since he said it, he had to go along with it. He didn't want to make him angry. "Okay, by then, even if I'm seventy or eighty years old, I'll risk my life to move in. If I live, the house lives. If the house dies, I die too."
"No, by then, the house will be even more unlivable."
"…" Naruto felt that his father was really difficult to deal with.
And Watergate really started thinking about Naruto's future. He had seen Fugaku's will with his own eyes. Fugaku's will was very organized. Watergate had also been trying to write for the past two days, but he didn't know what to write. "Naruto, dad has thought about it for a long time. It seems that other than the salary card that you already have, there's nothing else I can leave for you. Why don't you use the money to buy a piece of land while Konoha's land isn't in a hurry? "
"What?" Naruto didn't expect his father to say this.
"The ninja dormitory only has the right to use it. It doesn't have the right to buy, sell, or modify it. The land also belongs to Konoha. In the future, Naruto won't be able to demolish it just because someone wants to. And in the future, if you get married, it'll be enough. But if your son or daughter gets married, you won't be able to live together. Although a husband and wife can be considered a family, it's still livelier to have three generations under one roof. "
"Dad, why are you thinking so far ahead today?"
"Because I'm thinking about something else. Beep." Watergate waved at the Black Ops in the corner. "Bring me the information on Konoha's residence."
Naruto looked at Blackie, who was floating all over the room, and the various documents that were as tall as his bed. He was speechless. "Dad, are you serious?"
"Yes."
"This looks good." Watergate studied the map of Konoha. "Naruto, come and take a look. This looks good too. Beep."
"Dad, I'll look at it myself. You lie down." Naruto helplessly took the map from his father's hands and laid the head of the bed flat. "Looks like it has nothing to do with what you're thinking. You're tired."
"I feel fine."
"Your feelings are useless." Naruto tucked his father in. "In the past, it was cerebral hypoxia. Now it's cerebral hypoxia."
Watergate was disappointed. He still had a lot to tell Naruto.
"Dad, I'll look at it carefully." Naruto brought the map to his father. "The entertainment before bed is over. It's half past eight. Close your eyes."
Watergate couldn't resist the weakness of his body and closed his eyes.
Naruto flipped through the map. When his father fell asleep, he quietly turned off the light and put away the advertisements and decorations on the bed. He was really looking forward to the brand new Minato House. It was good to have a new house. It was bigger. When he got married in the future, his father could live with him. But he felt sorry for Kakashi. Although he wasn't very happy when he first moved into Hatake's house, after a period of time, it didn't seem to be as inconvenient as he had imagined. Moreover, if he and his father moved away, Kakashi would be very lonely.
"Four Generations are asleep?"
Naruto put the map in his hand into the folder and nodded to Mute who pushed the door open. He suddenly understood why his father liked to introduce partners to the single young men under his command. It was just like his father and mother in the past. His father woke up from the dormitory every day without any relatives, and his mother came to Konoha alone without any relatives. If his father and mother didn't fall in love and didn't form a family to live in Minato House, they would just be two poor Konoha Ninjas.
In the same way, Kakashi was a person, and so was Mute. Just like what his father had said, love at first sight like his mother was actually very rare. Most of the time, they would give each other a chance. Who knows if it would work out after looking at each other. It was better to live together than to be alone all the time. Was Kakashi really going to quietly die of old age in Konoha Hospital with eight Ninja Dog, while Mute lay in a nursing home with a pink pig in her arms. Even if there were people taking care of her, they were all much younger than her. There wasn't even anyone to talk to?
Papa said that even if young people are popular with the elders, it's impossible for them to truly understand the life that the elders have experienced … However, Naruto couldn't help but think, what if two people formed a family and couldn't grow old together for a lifetime? He didn't know how other single-parent families in Konoha solved this problem, but his father was lying in bed and begging his son to clean the windows, floors, and photos of his wife as usual. His life's hope was an old house.
Naruto couldn't imagine if his father, who lost his beloved wife, or a complete family, would commit suicide like in novels and movies if it wasn't for him. Because he also couldn't imagine how he would spend his childhood in the hustle and bustle of Konoha as an orphan without his father. As a teenager, he finally pursued a lonely girl, and after so many hardships, he formed a family, only to immediately lose it. It turned out that a wife wasn't just love, but also family and home.
"What are you looking at?"
"Mute -nee-san is pretty." Naruto turned his face.
"Little brat, do you know what pretty means?"
"Anyway, there aren't any female ninjas in Konoha who aren't pretty." Naruto could understand why Mute and Kakashi never took their father's matchmaking seriously, and always avoided it. He had seen the countless joys and sorrows of his father's generation, and the pain of his father being left alone in the world. If they really only liked each other and didn't hate each other and didn't rise to love, it was better not to harm each other. "I'll leave my father to you. I'm going to check on my lion. I don't know if Kakashi remembered to walk my lion for me since he's so busy."
"Go, go, your father won't suddenly have an accident again, trust me." Mute didn't have much of an impression of Watergate's son. She had left Konoha for a long time, and Naruto's entire generation had barely seen him. However, she always felt that this group of people was much more mature and sensible than they were back in the day. "Trust Konoha Hospital. The money your father gave to the hospital every year wasn't wasted."
Naruto nodded, put on his Anbu mask, put on the internship symbol, and left the ward. He was glad that his father still gave him the identity of an Anbu member. Otherwise, not to mention taking care of his father, even looking at him would be troublesome. Not to mention using the various convenient tunnels in Konoha that only belonged to the Anbu. It took a while to walk from the hospital to Naruto's building, but it only took five minutes to go through the secret tunnel. At that time, his father sent him to the hospital in time. It was really because of the Anbu's private digging and building.
"Password."
"Jiraiya … old and useless." Naruto felt embarrassed. He didn't know how Jiraiya offended the Anbu. These days, the password was almost always … Jiraiya is a big bad guy, Jiraiya is cruel, Jiraiya is a toad, Jiraiya is a cold-blooded animal. However, the Anbu seniors didn't stop him from going out because of his hesitation. After all, Kurohei probably grew up watching Master Naruto's mischievous behavior. Hahaha, he didn't realize it when he was young, but when he grew up and entered the Anbu, he suddenly realized that all his colleagues might know about his dark history … Oh!
However, the Anbu still asked, "Why don't you go directly to Naruto's building? Why are you going out from here?"
"To buy meat to feed the cat."
"To give you an umbrella."
"It's raining, I'll be back soon." Naruto waved his hand and got out of the tunnel. On the right was a brightly lit supermarket. "Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
Naruto didn't say anything. Before he fainted, he really felt that he should learn from Kakashi and wear a mask. The mask had to be pickled with the all-purpose antidote. It was hard to believe that he was paralyzed by a white handkerchief twice! And there were people around him, several Anbu members, and the one who gave him the umbrella was Yamato sensei! Ow ow ow ow
Because, he knew that the guards were useless! Not even once! Ow ow ow! Dad, don't worry, when your son comes back this time, you really have to train your son strictly! In the same pit, the first time he broke his left leg, the second time he broke his right leg, and in case he fell for the third time, only the middle leg can be broken!
If it's broken, just break it in two!
