Uchiha's Onmyoji

"Long time no see, Sasuke-kun."

Sasuke and Neji settled in a hotel in the border town of Tianno Country when they were visited by a relatively familiar person.

"You are..." Sasuke recalled something, "Kabuto?"

"What an honor. I didn't expect Sasuke-kun to still remember me." Kabuto pushed up his glasses, "According to Orochimaru-sama's order, I am here to assist Sasuke-kun..."

He glanced at Neji again.

"...and Neji-kun."

"I understand." Sasuke, who was wearing a yukata, was taking care of his sword and gave him a look. "Let's rest for the night and start again tomorrow morning."

"I understand." Kabuto smiled calmly, "Well, see you tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he exited the room and closed the door.

"This person..." Neji also remembered, "He took the Chunin Exam with us, right?"

"Yes, he was Orochimaru's subordinate and was working as a spy in Konoha."

Sasuke raised the knife in his hand, looked at the clear reflection on the sharp blade, and sheathed the knife with satisfaction.

While arranging the maintenance tools, he said: "That's a cunning guy, don't believe anything he says."

"understood."

Neji was unrolling a scroll and writing something with a brush in his hand.

Sasuke put away the tool box and walked over to take a look.

"Immortal Soft Fist?" Sasuke raised his eyebrows, "You actually recorded it? No one else can learn it except you. After all, Immortal Mode is not something that can be learned easily."

"I understand, I'm just lucky."

Neji stretched out his left hand and touched the Senjutsu seal on the back of his neck.

"However, who can say for sure about this kind of thing." He continued writing, "Maybe there will be other Hinata who can learn this in the future."

"Okay, as long as you're happy."

Sasuke looked away uninterested.

"Speaking of which, if we go to Orochimaru's place, it won't actually help your uncle's affairs." Neji then said, "In the final analysis, it's just to train you."

"Huh." Sasuke was a little unhappy when this topic was brought up, "Uncle doesn't have anything to do at this stage."

"So you were thrown to work for Orochimaru?" Neji asked.

"Of course not!" Sasuke immediately retorted, "We went to help our uncle watch the cooperation between Orochimaru and Ryūchi Cave!"

"Okay, as long as you're happy."

Neji buried his head in writing quickly.

"Hmph!" Sasuke turned around and left, "I'll make the bed."

He opened the closet and placed the bedding on the tatami.

"By the way." He looked up at Neji again, "Didn't you say you were going to the black market to check on the wanted status of the Hyuga clan?"

"I'll be there."

Neji stopped writing and put away the scroll and brush and ink.

"But..." He stood up and walked to the closet to take out another set of bedding. "I thought about it later. After this period of time, those people who found that the caged bird was still there should be able to calm down for a while."

"During this period, some members of the Hyuga clan should have been arrested." Sasuke made the bed, "Why didn't you rush to save people?"

"They are all born into big families, don't say you don't know." Neji unfolded the quilt and spread it next to him. "As a ninja, it is too common to die during missions. Will everyone go to rescue them?"

"And..." His expression was a little cold, "Actually, I don't have many familiar people in the clan."

"There are no clues now, and I don't know if anyone has been caught. Even if I want to rescue, I have no direction." Neji shook his head.

"If it were me, I should think so too." Sasuke thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

The two of them got into bed respectively.

"I'm turning out the lights."

Sasuke took out two shurikens from the ninja bag placed on the floor.

Swish.

A shuriken flew past in an arc, cutting off the burning wicks of three candles on the table in the distance, and finally nailed them to the wall.

"whispering sound."

It's just lights out, all the bells and whistles.

Neji curled his lips and then gently pushed out his palm.

"Bagua empty palm."

A weak chakra formed an air current and blew out the three candles on the windowsill on the other side.

The room was plunged into complete darkness.

"whispering sound."

Sasuke placed the remaining shuriken on his pillow.

I was careless, I should have thrown two at a time just now.

Sasuke thought unhappily.

"Hey!" Neji's voice suddenly sounded, "Have you never wanted to return to Konoha?"

"No." Sasuke said simply, "What, you still want to go back?"

"No." Neji's voice was a little stiff.

"Tch, it's okay if you want to go back. After all, you are different from me." Sasuke opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling in the darkness. "My family is not in Konoha, so I don't want to go back."

"What about Naruto? Kakashi-sensei and Sakura." Neji said softly, "Besides, your brother is also in Konoha now."

"Don't mention that guy, I don't have a brother anymore." Sasuke said calmly.

"Naruto, that guy seems to be very obsessed with you." Neji emphasized again.

"That guy..." Sasuke was a little helpless, "I made it clear to him at that time, and he probably won't think about taking me back to Konoha in the future."

"Are you talking about Naruto?" Neji was surprised.

"It's him. Since Uncle Minato came back, his ideas have changed a lot." Sasuke chuckled, "It's just that he's still stupid."

"He seemed very angry at the time because I defected with you." Neji recalled Naruto's behavior at that time.

"What about you, are you reluctant to leave your clan members or your companions?" Sasuke changed the topic to Neji, "I'm afraid you have more companions."

"..." Ningci fell silent.

After a long while, he spoke again: "I just feel sorry for Teacher Kai."

"That Metkai used his life to stop you." Sasuke was still a little frightened when he heard Kai's attack at that time, "That person was too desperate."

"Teacher Kai is a person who can implement his beliefs with his life." Neji's voice was very low, "Although he often looks stupid,... I have always respected him."

"In his opinion, he is not stopping me, but helping me." Neji's voice became lower and lower, "It's not that he can't think of many things, but he has his own persistence."

"There's nothing we can do about it." Sasuke somewhat understood Neji's emotions, "Your goals are different, and you have your own way to go."

"That's true." Ningci laughed, "Maybe in the end we will reach the same destination through different paths."

"That's right." Sasuke agreed, "Don't worry, we will eventually become companions on the stage of saving the world."

"I hope so." Neji closed his eyes, "Good night."

"Good night."

As the night deepened, the whispers in the room stopped, leaving only the sound of the two breathing and the sound of snow falling outside the window.
