Nangong Zhe naturally didn't see Kazuya's performance. Of course, even if he saw it, he wouldn't care too much.
Returning to the hotel, Nangong Zhe saw Linger and Mashiro playing chess in the living room.
Speaking of which, there is a need to explain. After coming to the Land of Hot Water, Mashiro and Linger stayed in a good hotel.
After Nangong Zhe and Kazuya met, several of Kazuya's subordinates took Nangong Zhe to this luxurious villa-like hotel.
Nangong Zhe, Mashiro, and Linger all had their own separate rooms. Kitchen, living room, and so on, everything was available. Naturally, there was also the most famous hot spring in the Land of Hot Water. In the center of the house, there was a hot spring. It was surrounded by smoke all day long, but it looked very good.
Seeing Nangong Zhe enter the door, Mashiro didn't pay attention to him. Instead, she frowned and looked at the chessboard.
Mashiro and Linger were playing a chess game that Nangong Zhe learned from his sister. It's called Go. It seems to have a long history, but for various reasons, it's almost impossible to see it in the ninja world.
"Mashiro! Let's stop for a moment, I have something to discuss with you. "
Nangong Zhe patted Mashiro's shoulder slightly, indicating that he wanted to talk to her.
But Mashiro seemed to be completely immersed in the game, and she slapped Nangong Zhe's hand away.
"Don't bother me, Little Linger, I don't know why. She's so good at chess, but I obviously learned this game longer than her! How can I lose so miserably? "
Mashiro's strong logic instantly made Nangong Zhe and Linger very embarrassed.
"Sister, brother seems to be looking for you for a very important matter. Let's stop for a while, I'm a little tired. Go drink some water! "
Ling 'er said very sensibly. After all, although Nangong Zhe's face wasn't ugly, it wasn't very good either. It felt like he had a lot on his mind.
"No way! If he had something to do, he would talk about it later. In any case, it wouldn't delay anything! Go! Playing chess is the most important thing! "
Alright, Mashiro was starting to pester endlessly. At this time, Nangong Zhe and Ling-er had no choice but to continue playing chess with Mashiro.
Under Ling-er's repeated throwing of the game, the two finally ended in a draw. But after calculating the numbers, Ling 'er still had the advantage. Zhen Ashen's face turned a little sour.
Then, Nangong Zhe let Ling-er play by herself for a while. She pulled Mashiro into the study room.
"Alright, Xiao Ling 'er isn't here anymore. If you have something to say, just say it … "
She shook off Nangong Zhe's hand and sat on a bamboo chair in the study room.
"Well, when I came back this morning, I was called by the leader of the Shinobi, you know about it, right?"
Mashiro nodded, indicating that he knew. Because when Nangong Zhe left, he specifically left a person behind to inform Mashiro and Ling-er of his whereabouts.
"The Shinobi leader called me to escort a team of Shinobi to Wood leaf village. To congratulate the Fourth Hokage, Watergate -sama, on the birth of his child! "
Nangong Zhe also found a place to sit down and slowly said.
"So … we're going back to Wood leaf village soon?"
Mashiro asked, but his brows slightly wrinkled.
"I didn't immediately agree, because after all, I'm still responsible for escorting you around to collect information. And it's very troublesome to bring Ling-er to Wood leaf village. Ling-er has been living with A 'weng in that remote mountain village. She doesn't even have an ID. "
When Mashiro heard Nangong Zhe's words, his brows relaxed. A girl's mind is always delicate, seeing Nangong Zhe asking for his opinion, his mood was a lot better.
"Ling-er's ID, I can think of a way. It'll be done soon. "
As a person who can hire a Jonin to perform a long-term mission, his social power and wealth can be imagined.
So for Mashiro to be able to solve such a problem, Nangong Zhe didn't feel much surprise.
"There's one more thing … it's about my sister …"
Nangong Zhe slightly lowered his head, so that Mashiro couldn't see his face.
"Sister? It's been so long … I don't seem to have heard you mention your sister. "
Indeed, Nangong Zhe and Mashiro have been together for nearly four or five months. But Nangong Zhe didn't mention that he had a sister.
Naturally, Mashiro was sensitive enough to sense that something wasn't quite right.
"You and your sister?"
Mashiro didn't say much, but the doubt in his eyes was obvious.
"Well … as you think. There are a lot of things, but don't worry. I'll solve it. It's been so long, there's no point in dragging it out. "
Nangong Zhe's attitude was very firm.
Nangong Zhe hoped that he could use this opportunity to clear all the disputes between himself and his sister.
"Since you've decided, then go. When I first came to Wood leaf village, I only stayed in the outer residential area. Since I'm going with you this time, it's not a bad idea to let you take me to a place further inside. I don't know how it feels to see Wood leaf's famous Shadow Rock up close! "
Mashiro said and stood up. He opened the door and went to find Ling Er.
Nangong Zhe was left alone in the study room, thinking without saying a word.
His own life, his own memories.
All kinds of doubts, this time at Wood leaf village must be cleared up.
But Nangong Zhe never thought that pursuing the truth was indeed a good thing. However, if he were to dig too much into the truth, would he end up being hurt by the sharp blade of the truth?
But when people were young, they couldn't help but pursue the truth.
Was it ignorance, or fearlessness?
The next day, Nangong Zhe went to Kazuya's office early in the morning. He told Kazuya that he could bring Tang Ren's congratulatory team to Wood leaf village.
Kazuya was extremely grateful and bombarded with all kinds of attentiveness. Nangong Zhe left Tang Ren's office.
After that, Nangong Zhe stayed in the hotel.
Until Tang Ren's people came to inform Nangong Zhe to leave for Wood leaf, Nangong Zhe was almost silent in the hotel.
Originally, Ling Er wanted to ask Nangong Zhe what was going on.
But she was pulled back by Mashiro.
Because, at this moment, Nangong Zhe was no longer someone who could be helped by simple persuasion.
This knot in his heart had to be untied slowly.
No matter how much anyone said, it wouldn't have much effect.
Nangong Zhe was also very clear that this matter had almost become a huge obstacle in his progress.
