Fire Country Konoha

The busiest days of the first month of the month for the Hokage Tower have passed, and now it's time for Konoha Hospital.Almost all ninjas who need regular physical examinations like to look for trouble when they take a breather after finishing their work.Although no medical ninja would agree that a physical examination is troublesome, no one would deny that it is indeed a troublesome thing to check the body of those uncles and elders.A ninja who can live to these years and still not retire haha.

After all, daily health care is completely different from first aid in wartime, where if someone bleeds and doesn't obey, he will die immediately.

"Let me say it again, I haven't had a stomachache recently. What, insomnia? Who told you that I would have insomnia? I obviously slept so much. Kakashi asked you to let him in at night. He didn't share the same bed with me at night. How could he? You know, isn't it normal to not feel sleepy at night after sleeping too much during the day?" This is what Kato Shizune, who was waiting outside the Hokage's special ward with Kakashi, heard, coming from the person with the highest level of confidentiality among the uncles in Konoha, and the most troublesome , the voice of the Fourth Hokage.

"Don't worry, sir, there is no gastroscopy in the physical examination this time, so please don't be nervous and just lie there quietly, okay." What followed was, it can be said that everyone in Konoha Hospital loves to see flowers. Opened by Jonin Yakushi Kabuto.

"I'm lying down." Naruto seemed a little unhappy.

"Then please close your eyes and stop talking." Yakushi Kabuto was still gentle.

"If you don't talk, you'll fall asleep."

"Bang." There was a sound that sounded like a pencil breaking. "Sir, you are the one who promoted the physical examination system. Can you be a good example?"

"Didn't I come here obediently?"

"Then please don't waste a senior medical nin's time. Besides you, he has many other patients to take care of."

So, it was finally quiet.

About half an hour later, Kabuto Yakushi opened the door with a case folder in his arms, "Your Excellency Anbu, can you please help wake up the person inside."

Kakashi poked his head in, sighed silently, and walked into the back room.

Kato Shizune also poked her head, a little confused, "I really fell asleep."

Kabuto Yakushi didn't answer, but silenced Shizune and gave a warning look, "Kakashi called you here, it's not a reason for you to spy on your boss at will, Shizune Jounin."

Shizune could only shrug. She watched Kakashi come out, turn over the sheets, go in, and come out again.

"You shouldn't let him sleep at a time that is not suitable for sleeping." Kabuto frowned at Kakashi.

"He hasn't had a lunch break for two days in order to squeeze in time for a physical examination at the hospital." Kakashi raised the room temperature. "It's afternoon anyway. If he wants to sleep, let him sleep. Let's go outside to talk."

"This is really not a good habit." Kabuto followed, and so did Shizune.

"That's better than not sleeping all day." Kakashi buttoned up the no-smoking sign on his desk, sat slanted, and lit a cigarette, "How is the situation this time?"

"Oh, there's no big problem. My stomach has recovered well. The malnutrition has been basically solved according to the data. The electrocardiogram, blood sugar and blood pressure are also normal. The rest depends on the blood test results in the morning. I guess there should be no Question." Dou pushed up his glasses and put the sign up again, "Can you stop smoking?"

"This is special unflavored tobacco." Kakashi took two strong puffs and winked at his pocket, "Thank you for your hard work. Now I'll leave the physical examination results and medical records to Shizune, and you can do whatever you need to do. ."

Kabuto didn't move.

Kakashi was silent for a while before he realized the difference in his words. He didn't want to cause unnecessary conflicts with Kabuto on this matter, so he explained, "Yamanaka Haiichi needs two senior medical ninjas to confirm the diagnosis." It’s really confirmed, how come it doesn’t work when I go to the Hokage?”

"Of course not, but according to the confidentiality regulations, looking through confidential information requires a warrant from the Hokage." Kabuto Yakushi had no intention of offending the Hokage's dark head, so he directly picked up the folder and left, "Some more detailed inspections The report will be available in a few hours, please be patient."

"What kind of attitude." Kakashi listened and closed the door, pressing the half-finished cigarette on the desk.

But Shizune on the side laughed lightly.

"Why are you laughing?" Kakashi raised his eyes.

"Kabuto Yakushi is indeed a little naughty boy." Shizune pulled out a tissue, picked up the cigarette butts on the table and threw them into the trash can. "Also, Kakashi has become much softer."

"Except for your face and height, you haven't changed much." Kakashi responded casually, scratched his face and walked into the already familiar ward.Inside the ward, behind the white curtain, Namikaze Minato was just like every time he came to the hospital, sleeping like a big shrimp with his quilt rolled up and facing the wall.

Kakashi sighed, stretched out his hand to try the air conditioner outlet, and raised the temperature two more degrees before looking at Shizune, "His problem now is that sometimes he can fall asleep just sitting there, and sometimes he has insomnia. The whole night, and once he falls asleep, it is difficult to wake him up. Even when he wakes up reluctantly, his face looks ugly and he often loses his temper. He also sweats while sleeping, especially at night. Sometimes when I fold his sheets in the morning, they are all damp. .”

"It sounds like it is indeed worthy of careful attention." Shizune listened seriously and answered seriously, but she saw that Naruto, who seemed to be disturbed by her and Kakashi, could not be serious. Naruto stretched out his two hands and pulled the sheets flatly. Over the head, and then quickly retracted his hand.

Kakashi not only saw the teacher's actions, but also saw the results of the actions, and immediately had the urge to lift the quilt.Sleeping in a hospital bed with his head covered with a white hospital sheet was simply too challenging for his nerves.However, Kakashi's reason told him that if he really lifted the quilt, Shizune would probably not be able to see a doctor properly today.So Kakashi had to take a deep breath, gently opened the gap in the sheets, and took out the Hokage's hand.

Shizune could only hold back her laughter, knowingly stepped forward and stretched out two fingers to hold the Hokage's pulse, and then quietly ignited a thin green chakra. In an instant, the result was obtained, "Well, the pulse is strong. , the muscles and veins are smooth, and the cell vitality is normal, which is actually quite healthy."

"Then why can he sleep so well?"

Maybe because she was lazy, Shizune wanted to answer in the tone of Tsunade-sensei, but looking at Kakashi's frown, she chose a more serious statement, "Isn't it normal for a ninja to rest and maintain his condition at any time. "

"That is to say, he now needs to accumulate physical energy anytime and anywhere." Kakashi's brows tightened.

"You can say that." At this time, Shizune finally realized something was wrong. The Hokage did tire too easily. "Anyway, it's best not to get too tired. If I remember correctly, you are already 40 years old."

"39 is old."

"Ah." Shizune was so frightened that she almost jumped up. When she lowered her head, she saw a pair of silvery sea-blue eyes smiling at her. It was Minato Namikaze who had woken up and sat up. He was covering his upper body. .

"Get dressed as soon as you wake up." Kakashi shook the coat off the table next to him and threw it to the teacher, "It's too ugly."

"Shizune is not an outsider." Minato ignored his clothes, but reached out to pull out the electricity levels that Yakushi Kabuto didn't help him pull out, and stretched, "What, is Shizune really shy?"

"No." Shizune is of course not shy. She is not a white rabbit who has never seen a man. As an experienced medical ninja, regardless of gender, she has seen everything that should be seen from the neck down. .However, this is a golden flash. Well, although the skin is a little pale and saggy, and the pectoralis major is not as tight as that of young men, it has less fat than teenagers, and the nearby trapezius, mastoid and deltoid muscles The matching lines are more perfect.In addition, when he stretched his arms upwards just now, the serratus anterior muscles are attached to the ribs one by one, and the eight-pack rectus abdominal muscles are sculpted, especially the beautiful mermaid lines of the internal and external abdominal oblique muscles that have not disappeared at this age. , It’s really loud.

"Why are you lowering your head if you're not shy?" Unfortunately, Kakashi still didn't understand the charm.

Because I'm afraid that the Hokage will be shy if I stare. Shizune finished complaining in her heart. She raised her head decisively and glanced at Kakashi. The loose Jounin uniform was covered from head to toe, revealing a corner of his face and a head of white hair in the hospital. How did the little medical ninjas figure out how handsome this guy is?

"What are you looking at?" Kakashi crossed his hands and stood up with his chin.

It's such an outdated pose. Shizune wanted to laugh at Kakashi, but Naruto had already laughed first, "Haha, so, is our little Kakashi shy? Shizune, you still have a long time to live, don't be so anxious to bully us. Kakashi."

"Minato-sama." Shizune heard the Hokage's teasing.

But Kakashi only had an eyebrow of embarrassment. After the Hokage and Shizune chatted for a while using him as gossip material, he finally couldn't help but send Shizune out, and then handed the teacher a glass of water.

Minato took it and took a big sip, still smiling, "Bah, it's so salty, Kakashi, explain."

"Kabuto said I drew a large tube of blood from you this morning. Drink more salt water today to expand your blood volume."

"That's not it."

"what is that."

"Mute."

"" Kakashi sighed, "Shizune and I are not interesting at the moment."

"No. What I'm asking is, why?

Shizune will be here for my physical examination. "The Hokage put down the cup, "Kakashi, you were not a person who liked to make your own decisions before. "

"Let me say it again, no matter last year or now, every decision I make is made by myself, and no one has influenced me. Of course, I admit that I am not good enough in some things, but do you feel that your The suspicion is getting worse." Kakashi clenched his fists and then unclenched them, "I won't argue with you. Are you still sleepy? I haven't arranged any necessary work for you in the afternoon, so you can continue to sleep until dinner."

"Kakashi"

"You look like you're exhausted even though you haven't done anything every day. Kabuto Yakushi keeps saying it's okay, it's okay. If you don't find someone else to look at it for you, how can you let me rest assured?"

"Thank you for your concern, but I think everything is fine with me."

Cassie took a deep breath and looked at the teacher's furrowed brows and angry eyes, "I won't argue with you now. I see your blood pressure is still low. Isn't it very good? You said you shouldn't get up suddenly. You just endured it when Shizune was here. It’s hard not to get angry, but if you feel uncomfortable, you have to say it immediately.”

"I said, I don't feel uncomfortable at all."

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with you." Kakashi took a deep breath again, got another glass of water for the teacher, and then added a piece of sugar, "Drink something sweet again, and then continue to sleep."

Minato didn't take the cup this time, but put on his coat, got out of bed and pushed the door open.

"What are you doing?"

"Who wants to sleep in the hospital? I'll go back to sleep."

"I'll accompany you." Kakashi quickly followed.

"Stay away from me." The Hokage pushed his disciple away, "Do what an ANBU should do."

Kakashi could only take another deep breath, drank all the water in the cup in one breath, and chewed the candy.He knew that he had done something that made the teacher unhappy again this time, but if he was given another chance, he would call Shizune here, and he would still call Shizune here for the next routine physical examination.After all, it was better to be scolded than to scare the poor little medical ninjas in the first aid class if something really happened.

Over there, Namikaze Minato, who had already walked away, still had a fire in his heart. He knew very well that he had just gone too far with Kakashi, but he just wanted to get angry and couldn't control it.Well, he really had no reason to be angry with Kakashi.But what can we do after we have already sent it? We don't want to go back to Hatake's old house immediately. The Hokage had no choice but to sigh and temporarily stayed in the small garden of Konoha Hospital and sat on a bench.He felt that he should look at the blue sky, blow in the breeze, bask in the sun, relax, and then continue to play a small ton, it is best to continue to dream.Maybe this way, the fire in his heart would be dissipated.

But nine times out of ten things will go wrong.

With a "pop", the last trace of sleepiness from Naruto disappeared.

"I'm sorry, sir." The black-clothed ANBU was holding a child in his hand. The little child was about 3 years old, with a frightened look on his face.

Minato looked at the upright secret guard in front of him, and instantly knew that Kakashi was in trouble again. It was normal for someone to follow the Hokage, but it was not normal for the Hokage to block the garden because the Hokage wanted to bask in the sun, "Whose child is this lost?" .”

"Sir, this should not be Konoha's child." Anbu put the child on the ground, still upright.

Minato walked forward and saw clearly that the child was very thin, with yellow hair and a handful of malnourished bones. He really shouldn't be a child born and raised in Konoha, but, "No matter where the child is, it is lost." Someone must be worried, you go and ask."

The ANBU didn't move.

"I have no intention of leaving your sight." Although he knew that the guards came with serious intentions, Minato was still very annoyed with such subordinates, "But your intercom still has power."

"Yes, sir." The black wood then took two steps sideways and spoke.

Minato could also start coaxing the child seriously, "Kid, what's your name."

But the only answer he received was the child's sobs.

Minato frowned, put the child on his knees, closed his eyes, and then opened them again, showing the most kind expression, but the child cried even harder.This made Minato a little embarrassed.He didn't want to doubt it, but it was hard to imagine that his gentle smile, which killed all the little animals in an instant, was so malfunctioning.

But soon, someone came to relieve him from the embarrassment.

"I'm sorry, sir, for causing you trouble." A young chuunin ran out from the flowers and saluted the Hokage on one knee.

Minato looked at the person who came. He felt that this chuunin was particularly kind, but suddenly he couldn't remember his name. "What's wrong with this kid?"

"Sir, someone picked it up while out in the field. He couldn't raise it himself and gave it to an orphanage. As a result, the child was found to have chickenpox within two days of his arrival."

"Is chickenpox spreading in the orphanage now? Minato interrupted his subordinate, "I haven't received any reports here. "

"There are no signs of large-scale infection. Most of the children have already passed out the year before last." The Chuunin answered while trying to take the child from the Hokage's lap.

"I see." Minato reached out and touched the child's head, "It's a bit feverish."

"Yes, in addition to chicken pox, I also have a cold. The Chuunin stretched out his hand again, but the child snuck deeper into the Hokage's arms.

" He seems to be afraid of you. The Hokage patted the child's back evenly and said, "You didn't pick up another child who had a father and a mother but just went out to bask in the sun. "

"Ahem, please forget the stupid things I did when I was young and ignorant." The chuunin quickly changed the subject, "Sir, give him to me. The doctor-nin is still waiting to give him an injection."

"Okay. Minato smiled and took the child out of his arms, "Hey, little guy, you're going to get an injection. "

" Wow"

As a result, the child went from sobbing to crying.

Minato looked at the embarrassed chuunin and the child who was shrinking into his arms, and pursed his lips, "He didn't run away during the injection."

"Yes." The chuunin was even more embarrassed, "I didn't notice any of them."

“Afraid of injections”

"No, I'm afraid of infection."

"Oh." Although the young chuunin only said three words, it was enough for our Hokage to understand, "So you are afraid of being thrown away. Don't worry, kid, I won't throw you away. It's just chicken pox." "

It's a pity that the child's eyes are still frightened.

Minato had no choice but to explain carefully. He touched the child's sparse hair and said, "Don't be afraid. Not all infectious diseases are terrible. The little red bumps on your body are called chickenpox. It won't kill anyone, and I've had it before. Once, you won't get it again in this life. Really, my son had it when he was a child, and I had it when I was a child. We are not afraid of being infected, otherwise who would dare to be so close to you."

The child finally opened his eyes.

"So, there's nothing to be afraid of." Minato took the child's thin hand and pointed it at the chuunin, "Why don't you ask him, he also had it when he was a child."

"Yes, I've had it too." The young chuunin opened his collar in cooperation. You see, I still have a scar here.Didn’t that medical ninja in white coat just tell you that scratching will leave scars? "

The child was suspicious.

Minato smiled again and put the child on the ground, "If you don't believe me, you can hug him. See if he is afraid of you. If he really wants to abandon you because you have an infectious disease, why would he dare to hug you? .”

The child thought for a moment and finally extended his hand to the chuunin.

The young chuunin picked up the child and finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Then, I will take him back to the ward. I'm sorry, sir, for disturbing you."

"It doesn't matter." Minato waved his hand, watched the chuunin leave, sighed, and suddenly frowned. At least, his work is somewhat meaningful, right?

But his secret guard frowned into a knot, "Sir, please don't have physical contact with others casually next time. Besides, this child is not from Konoha."

"Every child deserves to be cherished, just a two or three-year-old child." Minato stood up, "Besides, when he comes to our Konoha, he will be a member of Konoha."

"But besides chickenpox, he has other diseases. In the face of epidemics, everyone is equal." The upright little ANBU said bluntly, "Also, what if that child is an assassin? Anyone who can hold a knife can kill for Konoha. , please take good care of it.”

"Even if someone dies, the sun will still rise."

"Sir, please be careful what you say." The little ANBU suddenly raised his voice, but soon lowered it again, "I'm sorry, sir, I'm very sorry."

"You are really serious. I remember you are only 18 years old." The Hokage looked at his secret guard who was gritting his teeth and clenching his fists, and sighed again, "Young people should cherish their youth."

Cherish it because there is no regret in life

In early September of Konoha 61, the weather began to become less hot.

The Hokage Namikaze Minato, who had not visited the grassroots for a long time, suddenly went to inspect several orphanages in Konoha one day.
