Konoha starts with a young bird

Chapter 207 Returning to the Village
Staring at the familiar huge door in front of him, Yueguang next week came with a flash of relief in his eyes.

It seems that this door has a kind of magic power, which completely isolates the atmosphere outside the village from the atmosphere inside the village.

The village is peaceful and peaceful, and there are crises everywhere outside the village.

Although there are very few people who can threaten Zhou Lai's life nowadays, the vigilance in his heart is always there when he is drifting outside.

Months of vigilance can leave you feeling physically and mentally exhausted even today's weeks.He desperately needed to go back to the village, to that warm and comfortable nest.

But before that, he still had a task to complete, so he took another deep look at the Konoha sign at the door, and moved his eyes down to stare at the two familiar figures who were yawning at the door.

Zhou Lai's body disappeared from the spot in a flash, and when he reappeared, he had already arrived at a barrier on the side of the village, stretched out his hand to make a seal, and disappeared in a flash.

This is a ritual that is chosen every time before completing a mission. Many times, Anbu cannot enter the village from the gate, even in the dead of night when there is no one around.Because no one knows if there are spies from other countries hiding in the dark and secretly recording the presence and absence of Anbu personnel.

So Zhou Lai used this method of looking at the village to add a little bit of ceremony to himself when entering the village.Although Ying feels that Zhou Lai's behavior is boring, Zhou Lai never tires of it and takes pleasure in it.

"Huh?!! Ah Lai!"

Zhou Lai, who had just passed by the conference hall and was about to go to report the completion of the task, was startled suddenly, and a very abrupt voice made him freeze in place for an instant.

"You want to scare me to death in the middle of the night!!"

Zhou Lai turned his head and looked at Qing Cheng with a helpless expression.

This guy is used to the ninjas of Anbe, and he doesn't even make a sound when he walks. In addition, he was so focused on finishing the task and going back to sleep last week that he was in a relaxed state of body and mind, so he didn't even notice Qing Cheng who was walking around the corner.

"Then you are still dragging your feet in the middle of the night, I thought the captain came back, but I didn't expect it to be you!!"

Qing Cheng stepped forward and hooked Zhou Lai's neck, showing a very happy expression.But Zhou Lai saw a smirk deep in his eyes.The body will shrink back subconsciously,
"What are you doing, you have been walking for so long!"

Qingcheng didn't give Zhou Lai a chance to dodge, seeing that Zhou Lai's body wanted to retreat, he hurriedly wriggled his body to stick to it.

"also?!"

Zhou Lai was stunned, and looked at Qingcheng in surprise.

"Haven't the Eagles come back yet?"

Zhou Lai remembered that when he left, the Hawks had already been away on mission for a month, and now that he had finished his mission and rushed back, but the Eagles hadn't come back yet, which surprised him a bit.

The fourth unit is all about carrying out assassination missions. Before taking action, they will conduct a series of investigations and studies on the target. They are often killed by one blow and evacuated quickly. In the ninja world, there are very few ninjas lurking and waiting for a long time. The situation of timing.

"No." Qing Cheng shook his head, and a trace of worry flashed across his face.

"Let's not talk about this, this time you came back at the right time, I am now worrying that no one can solve the task at hand!"

Qing Cheng swept away the melancholy on his face, looked up and down Zhou Lai in surprise, patted his shoulder and continued.

Some time ago, I waited for you and the captain for the troublesome matter, but no one came back, so I had to hand over the task to Kakashi of the first team to do it, and now it’s coming again!I still have a headache, how can I explain to the three generations of adults?"

"The bottom six groups, there are still Junin, no one can solve it yet? I just came back, I haven't come home yet"

Zhou Lai didn't quite believe Qing Cheng's appearance, feeling that he just didn't want to let himself be idle.

"They all have their own tasks. In order to divert the attention of other ninja villages, the three generations of adults have been making us frequent activities. There are not enough manpower."

"Hey, don't push me, I haven't reported the mission yet"

Qing Cheng walked towards the room near the meeting hall before Zhou Lai agreed to drag him after finishing speaking.

"I'll find someone to report to you later, that doesn't matter"

……

……

Although Qing Cheng was a little unreasonable, Zhou Lai's original dream of a sweet little holiday with Xiyan was completely shattered.But Qingcheng was still gentle, and asked Zhou Lai to go home and rest for a day, and then come to Anbu to take over this extremely troublesome task the next evening.

Handing over the task to Qing Cheng, Zhou Lai turned around and returned home. He didn't go to the izakaya he bought for his mother. According to his mother's habit, he should have gone to bed early at this time.

Under the moonlight, the bright moonlight flowers echo the moonlight.A trace of hazy white light was emitted.It adds a holy and peaceful charm to the whole small courtyard.

This is a scene that I can see every time I go home late at night in Zhoulai. This moonlight flower that has been raised since childhood is like a knight waiting for the owner to come home.It became an indelible memory in his memory together with his mother's always-on light.

It was very late the next day when Zhou Lai got up from putting on his clothes and looked at the label his mother put on the front of the refrigerator.Turning around, he took out a bottle of drink from the refrigerator and drank it down.

Although the izakaya has three-tailed foxes to help, my mother doesn't need to bother too much, but my mother will get up early every day and rush to the izakaya.

After having lunch with his mother at an izakaya at noon, Zhou Lai turned to look for her figure on the roof in front of Xiyan's house.

It's not that Zhou Lai doesn't take the usual path, but that Xiyan's mother and father's attitudes toward coming down are completely two extremes.

Xiyan's mother is too enthusiastic, the kind that the enthusiastic Zhou Lai wants to avoid, but Xiyan's father is too cold, after seeing Zhou Lai, he will hang his face all day long, it seems that there is always a kind of home The feeling of flowers being arched by pigs.

"You still know how to come back! Why are you looking for me!"

Xiyan pouted her small mouth, glanced at the familiar figure at the window, and casually shrank her slender jade legs exposed to the back of the table.

"Of course we watch the moon together!"

Zhou Lai laughed and opened the window and jumped in.

"Don't~"

"Ah~hahahaha the big pig's hooves opened"

……

……

The happy time is always short, and I didn't enjoy it for a week, and found that it was already late at night.

Reluctantly parting from Xiyan, Zhou Lai rushed to Anbu Base to find Qingcheng.Qingcheng has been waiting for a long time
Qing Cheng didn't say anything, and passed the scroll in his hand to Zhou Lai.

"This is the specific information. The task is the confidant of the fire country daimyo. I will leave it to you!"

Swish!
Zhou Lai's figure flashed, leaving only a light gust of wind in place.
