In recent days, He Yun clearly felt that his physical condition was getting worse. I have been extremely sleepy all day, as if my strength has been drained away, my hands and feet are limp, and my whole body is weak.

He Yun knew that she didn't have much time.

She also knows that these limited time should not be wasted on cooking, dazing, or sleeping.

However, she had to admit that Kakashi did not interfere with her in the slightest.

It's not like He Yun has never been cruel.

When she heard that Kakashi went to an izakaya to get drunk, she had the idea of ​​leaving Konoha Village again. On the one hand, it is convenient for movement, on the other hand, her heart will not be shaken anymore.

As a result, that night, Kakashi didn't know whether he was sober or drunk, but he used a kiss to retain her.

This was completely unexpected to her.

To this day, He Yun still vividly remembers the soft and moist touch on his lips that night, like a mark imprinted on his body that cannot be erased or forgotten.

Although the two of them have been walking on thin ice since then to maintain an increasingly estranged relationship with each other, if no one breaks this layer of window paper, living like this can be regarded as staying together forever.

If you can maintain the status quo and live your whole life in peace, then so be it.

Occasionally I want to indulge myself willfully.

He Yun looked out the window and then yawned. The midday sun made it difficult to keep her eyes open.

It was noon now, but she was sleepy again.

I slept until the next morning, when I was awakened by a knock on the door.

The door Kakashi opened: "Red"

He Yun hadn't fully woken up yet, so he turned over on the sofa, shrank his head into the quilt and continued to sleep. Although his mind was not completely awake, his ears were still receiving the movement at the door in a daze.

"Kakashi, I'm sorry to bother you so early." Kurenai's tone was filled with anxiety, "Is Heyun-san here?"

Hearing his name, He Yun's eyelids moved.

"Yes, what's the matter?"

"It's about that child Yakumo"

"Yakumo" Before Kurenai could finish speaking, Heyun had already jumped up from the sofa, and his face that had always been sickly was finally stained with a bit of life. She asked angrily while putting on her coat, "What happened to Yakumo?"

"Actually, most of the responsibility lies with me." Hong sighed and said with deep self-blame, "That child Yakumo's inner demons are getting more and more serious."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Yun had already impatiently opened the window and jumped out.

Kakashi looked at the girl's running back with a complicated expression.

Hong exclaimed: "She went in the direction of the old house."

Crane clouds shuttled across the roof like the wind, wishing that they could grow some more legs.

The moment she heard Hong say that something happened to Yakumo, she was completely stunned. Her only thought was to find Yakumo first.

The only relatives I have left are you and my uncle and aunt.

He Yun's heart clenched.

Don't worry.

Please, don't let anything happen.

Soon, Heyun, who had prayed all the way, stood in front of Yakumo's house. She didn't care to breathe, and first patted the door gently, then shouted anxiously: "Uncle and aunt Yakumo, please open the door."

When she received no response, she began to knock on the door with her fists, her voice seemed to be crying: "Yakumo, I am my cousin, are you here? Please open the door quickly."

Still no one responded to her. He Yun suddenly felt a strong sense of foreboding in his heart.

"I'll open the door myself." The trembling girl was so frightened that she lost her mind, and she looked like she was about to break in.

Kurenai who arrived later stopped her in time: "Tsurunun-san, Yakumo no longer lives here long ago." Then he said to her and Kakashi who came with her, "I will take you there. The specific situation is on the way. explain."

After Hong finished speaking, he jumped on the roof and ran towards the back mountain.

Hegumo and Kakashi followed closely behind.

"Yakumo has always dreamed of becoming an excellent ninja."

"That child worked really hard, so I accepted her as a student. But He Yunsang, as you know, her physical condition is really not suitable for continuing to practice."

"Yakumo's parents don't want her to wear down her body for her dream, so we advised her to give up being a ninja."

"For her, this should be quite a blow. As her teacher, I failed to guide her properly, which led to her inner demons."

"Now her inner demons are getting more and more serious, and sometimes she can't even control them. That's why Hokage-sama let her live alone in the back mountain. I feel really guilty and don't know what to do to help her untie her knot. I think You are Yakumo’s cousin, maybe you can persuade her.”

Heyun was unusually quiet at this time. If he hadn't seen her eyes gradually turning red, Hong might have doubted whether the girl around him had heard what she said.

In fact, He Yun accurately caught the word "living alone", but before he could ask, he had already arrived in front of an ancient house.

"It's here."

Heyun frowned and glanced around the house. The old and outdated house looked lifeless and was located in the mountains not close to Konoha Village.

When I opened the door, I was immediately greeted by the smell of decay. There seemed to be no electric lights in the house, and the interior could only be seen clearly through the light from the outside. There was a thick layer of dust on the wooden floor, and a harsh "squeaking" sound could be heard with every step, as if it would happen in the next second. It's like breaking if it can't bear the weight.

He Yun turned his head and glanced at Kurenai in disbelief. His surprised eyes were clearly asking Kurenai about Yakumo living in a place like this.

Hong nodded and walked in front, signaling Heyun to follow her.

After going up to the second floor, Hong took Heyun to one of the rooms in the corridor. The dilapidated door was ajar, and shaky shadows and faint firelight could be seen through the crack.

He Yun gently opened the door and saw Yakumo sitting in the middle of the room, with his back to the door, painting in front of the easel, with candles that were about to burn out on both sides. She seemed completely immersed in the world of painting and didn't notice anyone entering the room.

Looking around again, the whole room is filled with paintings with gloomy tones and horrific contents, which look gloomy and gloomy under the candlelight.

Heyun took a few steps inside and saw that Yakumo still had no reaction, so he tentatively shouted: "Yakumo"

Yakumo turned her head. When she saw Heyun standing at the door, her gloomy expression suddenly disappeared. She had been expressionless for many days and finally showed a heartfelt smile.

"Cousin." She happily ran to He Yun. She couldn't believe her eyes. Her voice sounded surprised and excited, "Cousin, why are you here?"

Obviously there were Kurenai and Kakashi behind Heunun, but Yakumo somehow seemed not to notice, and just held Heunun's hand and was happy.

"Yakumo, are you okay?" Seeing Yakumo's cheerful look, Heyun felt sad and blamed himself.

They used to see each other almost all day long, but now Heyun just does the usual things as before, but Yakumo has a satisfied look in his eyes.

"Cousin, I miss you so much." Yakumo put his delicate arms around Heyun's neck, and she cried with relief, "You ignored me when you came back. I thought I did something wrong to make you unhappy. . That time you were injured and you didn’t let me see you. I was really anxious to death.”

"Yakumo, you did nothing wrong. It's your cousin's fault."

"Cousin, come and see my paintings." Yakumo wiped away his tears and smiled again.

She let go of Heyun's neck, but before turning around, she noticed Kurenai and Kakashi standing at the door along the shadows on the ground.

Seeing that Yakumo finally saw her, Yuhi Hong could no longer stop worrying and planned to go to her side: "Yakumo"

Just as she took a step forward, the face of the girl in front of her suddenly lost all color, her chest heaved violently, and she screamed miserably: "Oh, don't come here."

Then, when everyone was in shock and hadn't reacted, she grabbed Heyun and ran to the drawing board. She grabbed the brush with both hands and pointed the tip of the brush at Kakashi and Kurenai. Her arms were shaking because of fear, but she still stopped her. In front of He Yun, like a little beast ready to attack at any time, he kept repeating: "Don't come over, don't come over, I won't let you come over."

"Yakumo, look at me, I'm Teacher Kurenai."

He Yun was also frightened by Yakumo Yun's actions. He swallowed and mustered up the courage to put his hand on her shoulder. With a soft voice, he tried to comfort her: "Yakumo, what's wrong with you? Don't be like this. Tell your cousin what's going on. .”

"Let's go, let's go." Yakumo was still in a state of excitement. He even started to pick up painting tools and throw them at the door. While throwing them, he trembled and muttered: "I won't let you hurt my cousin. I won't let you hurt me again." cousin"

Seeing that the situation was not very optimistic, Kakashi pulled Kurenai to avoid a can of paint and advised, "Let's go first."

Although she couldn't let go of Yakumo, under the current situation, Hong had no choice but to leave first and wait until Yakumo calmed down.

It wasn't until the voices of Kurenai and Kakashi could no longer be heard that Yakumo's tense nerves relaxed. His legs softened due to fear and excessive exertion, and he fell to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut off, sobbing.

"Yakumo" Heyun squatted down, looking at his usually well-behaved and sensible cousin who was in despair, his heart felt like it was being cut out with a knife.

"Cousin" Yakumo looked up at Heyun with tears in his eyes. He couldn't help but threw himself into her arms and cried intermittently: "Cousin, I'm so scared."

"Tell my cousin, what's wrong?" Heyun patted Yakumo's back gently.

Hearing these words, Yakumo, who was crying so hard, suddenly stopped crying. As if he thought of something, he sat on the ground in a panic and pushed Heyun desperately: "Cousin, please leave quickly. Destroy the Kurama clan and they will kill you and you will die.”

He Yun was stunned and asked in surprise: "What's going on?"

"Cousin, my parents have been killed by three generations, cousin." Yakumo could no longer hold back the huge grief in his heart, and fell into Heyun's arms, crying helplessly.

He Yun froze there, feeling as if her brain was deprived of oxygen and couldn't think, as if there were hands holding her throat. After a long, long time, she came back to her senses amidst Yakumo's cries.

Uncle and aunt are dead.

Killed by the Third Hokage.

Yakumo was locked up in a place like this.

Despite being so cold to her before, Yakumo still calls her "cousin" affectionately and protects her when he senses danger.

In comparison, she is really an incompetent cousin.

He Yun bit his lower lip, trying hard to hold back the tears that were about to overflow from his eyes, until traces of blood oozed out.

"Yakumo." She touched the head of the girl in her arms like an elder, "As long as my cousin is here, everything will be fine. I will definitely protect you."

This is a firm commitment.

When He Yun walked out of the house, only Kakashi was left outside. Hong seems to have some important mission to perform.

The girl's eyes were still stained with tears, and her eyes were as red as a little rabbit. She clenched and unclenched her fists. She raised her head, looked at the lazy Kakashi seriously, and said solemnly: "Follow me." Let’s have a fight, Kakashi.”

Kakashi stared at Heyun suspiciously and asked in a "Are you sure" tone: "Here now"

When he taught her ninjutsu before, if he hadn't forced her, she wouldn't have practiced well at all, let alone fought him.

"Here, now." He Yun said solemnly, "I will be determined to kill you, so please be serious and don't accidentally get killed by me."

Kakashi stared intently at Heyun's eyes, suddenly moved.
