I write Hokage in Konoha

Chapter 34 The Truth
The next day.

Bright morning.

On the other side of the cemetery in Xiahe Village.

Chu Ran sat quietly cross-legged on a steep and lush tree branch, his eyes were bloodshot and his expression was gloomy.

In the direction of Dahe Village in the distance, a funeral procession was about to arrive at the cemetery forest on the opposite bank. At the same time, cries and shouts, mixed with the sound of gongs and drums, came faintly.

But Chu Ran was indifferent.

The leader of the funeral procession was Dahe's father, who was leaning on crutches and had a stooped figure.

In the middle of the line were the young and powerful pallbearers of the village.

The front and back coffins are lined up in a row,
Everyone walked slowly on the narrow field road.

Dahe's mother and daughter-in-law supported each other and followed behind the two coffins, crying with their heads up, their voices hoarse and desolate.

When the mourning team approached the forest.

Suddenly, countless pitch-black crows flew out of the forest.

Chu Ran took out the kunai that ended the river last night from the ninja tool bag tied on his right thigh, and looked through it in his hand.

The dried blood was all over Kunai's sharp blade, like a blooming blood-colored vine, which tightly entangled Kunai.

Didn't appreciate it for long.

Chu Ran casually threw it into the waters downstream of the Xiahe Village Dam, as if he had just thrown away a stone on the side of the road.

last night
Chu Ran dragged Dahe's body back to Dahe's house together with Naruto.

Just happened to meet Kushina and Zuosuke who hurried over from Konoha Castle.

Kushina also brought two medical ninjas from Konoha City. After they confirmed Dahe's death, the two medical ninjas healed Chu Ran and Naruto successively.

The news of Dahe's death made the Dahe family who were already in grief.The pain was almost hopeless. If it wasn't for the medical ninjas who used drugs to stabilize the emotions of the two elderly people in his family, maybe after last night, the Dahe family would never exist in this world.

After Chu Ran was cured, she didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

In the eyes of the left assistant,

Chu Ran seemed to be a different person, not at all the timidity and bewilderment when they met for the first time.

Kushina naturally discovered the real cause of Dahe's death. She looked at Chu Ran carefully, and then looked at Naruto who passed out.

She was not embarrassed by Chu Ran.

Since his son brought him out to carry out the mission, it meant that he approved of this little guy from the bottom of his heart.

Jiu Xinnai has always looked forward to the gaze of his son, such as Zuo Zhu before.

……

And early in the morning.

Chu Ran silently came to the opposite side of the grave forest,
Waiting for the funeral of Dahe and his brother.

"Can you give me an explanation?"

In Chu Ran's silence, a warm palm rested on his shoulder, and Naruto's gentle voice came from behind.

Chu Ran slowly turned his head away, looked at Naruto, with a wry smile on his face, pointed to the vacant branch next to him, and motioned him to sit down.

A moment of silence.

"What if there is no explanation?"

Chu Ran looked at the funeral team that was about to walk to the other side, and suddenly asked in a tone of contempt.

"Then I'll check it myself. If I can't find it, I'll send you to see Dahe."

Naruto lowered his head, clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his fists bulged.

"Sit down, do you still remember the dream I told you yesterday?"

Chu Ran didn't care about Naruto's threats at all, and patted the branches beside him clean for Naruto.

"Live?"

Naruto let go of his fist and sat beside him.

"Yeah, so, it's not the time to go down to see Dahe, if I go down, maybe I will kill him again."

Chu Ran was decisive, with fierce eyes.

"."

Naruto was speechless at his words.

"Actually, she showed mercy to us all last night."

Chu Ran recalled all the details of the battle on the reservoir last night, whether it was Xiaoqi who severely injured Naruto or used the illusion [Symbiosis Soul Kill] to deal with herself, she largely reserved her full strength.

As Xiaoqi, who relies on the original energy of the reservoir and is a D-level peak humanoid mutant, after the first round of confrontation with the two, she could have easily killed Chu Ran and Naruto.

but,

In the end, he lost the chain when he killed Naruto and Chu Ran.

Naruto himself can clearly feel the gap in strength between the two sides, so after Chu Ran reminded, think about it carefully, maybe it is just like what Chu Ran said.

"But why did you kill Da He?"

Naruto continued to ask.

Obviously, he cared more about why his companions killed people for no reason.

Naruto couldn't believe why Chu Ran, who was originally so so, suddenly burst out with such firm willpower. After he killed Dahe, he couldn't feel the slightest sense of guilt or guilt.

It was as if...he was doing justice for the heavens by killing Dahe!

"Listen to me slowly."

Chu Ran put his hands together and leaned against the big tree, looking at the blue sky, and fell into the special effect produced by the extreme yin seal when he saw Dahe after sealing Xiaoqi yesterday.

then.

under the moonlight.

Chu Ran knelt down on the beach,
In that moment of erratic spirit.

Xiaoqi's memories of being a spirit body, like a movie reflection, played quickly in Chu Ran's mind.

This made Chu Ran see Xiaoqi's tragic fate in this life.

Xiaoqi originally lived in a quiet, remote and isolated village called "Sangyu".

She has a happy family.

A hardworking and responsible father at home,
A virtuous and gentle mother.

She grew up in this kind of warm environment until she was ten years old. On the day of her tenth birthday, a group of rebels broke into Sangyu, all the men in the village were slaughtered, and all the women were ruined. Loyal women would rather die than surrender, and follow their husbands to death, as did Xiaoqi's mother.

After seeing her parents die tragically in front of her own eyes, Xiaoqi was betrayed and stayed by everyone's side to serve them.

Such humiliation has not been long,

The gang of traitorous ninjas were wiped out by the country's regular ninja troops, and Xiaoqi was rescued.

But the world has long lost its meaning to her.

When she was looking for relief, she met an old man. The old man was lonely, and his children had already abandoned the old man. The old man took care of Xiao Qi very carefully, and finally influenced her with meticulous care.

Until Xiaoqi grew up.

The old man never had the chance to watch her get married again, nor did he wait until she grew up to take care of herself as she had promised.

the old man left

The girl's second home was also broken.

The old man's domineering son found the girl after returning home, and bullied the girl again on the day of the old man's funeral.

The girl's heart was ashamed, and she had no face to live in the world anymore, but when she committed suicide, she was rescued by the old man's son, and was finally trafficked and sold to the Land of Fire, where she was displaced for four or five years. The man's bullying, his throat was also destroyed, and even the opportunity to speak was forcibly taken away.
