[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

Konoha December 59, 12, 23 pm

Konoha, the Country of Fire, Hinata's main house, small living room

Floor heating, table warmers, and big sizzling copper pots.

The owner Hinata Hinata put away the little red note hanging at the door to celebrate the successful transfer of his beloved daughter Hinata Hinata from the reserve ninja to the official reserve.Then he sat back in the corner, face to face with the only remaining guests.

"How about Hizashi? After going out for a while, have you ever found a good son-in-law who is worthy of this meal?" Nara Shikaku put down his chopsticks and stood up. He covered the old scar on his forehead and looked at the theoretical things in the yard. It was the new reserve genin who were drinking for the first time, and they lowered the curtain that Hiashi had forgotten.Firstly, the wind gave him a headache, and secondly, he felt that if he listened to the energy all over the yard for a while longer, he would die. He would definitely be tortured to death by the noise, even if the one who was stepping on the table was directing everyone to sing randomly. Chaotian pigtailed and dead fish-eyed is his lovely son.

Of course Hinata Hizashi didn't answer. He just glanced outside with Shikaku's dead fish eyes, then stretched out his chopsticks and continued to pick and pick in the boiling hot pot. He looked a little seriously, and once he encountered it, he still Just put the veal in your mouth and chew it without being overcooked.But in fact, his heart was not so stable. After all, his daughter was also in the noisy yard.

"I didn't expect that my son, who usually has a calm face, would be so lively after drinking." Lujiu was sure that he hadn't reached out to Rizu, so he could only continue to talk, "Hey, I have a hunch that you He said that my wife would go to the hospital to bring me supper later, but she found that I was missing from the ward. When I came home, I saw that my son still smelled of alcohol. Should he bite me to death first or my son to death first?"

Hinata Hizashi still didn't answer. He looked at Shikaku, who was very happy when he talked about being beaten by his wife, and was very puzzled.Therefore, he chose to pick up another piece of winter mushroom and dip it in sesame sauce.But before the mushrooms could cool down, my interest was aroused again.

"Hahaha, what's the matter? Headaches can really lower your IQ. But Shikaku, I'm really happy to see that you made a mistake in your judgment and may have to kneel on the washboard when you go home."

Before seeing the person, he first heard the chorus. Nara Shikaku followed the cool breeze and turned around to punch the figure. Unfortunately, it failed, "Yes, Uchiha, I didn't expect your son to listen to my son. You Look, let’s drink when we’re allowed to drink, and let’s sing when we’re allowed to sing. Office work has ended for four generations.”

"Outside, I always say hello to Naruto. Hinata, why don't you help him prepare an ichiraku, the classic original flavor." Uchiha Fugaku took off his navy blue cotton coat embroidered with a small fan, and moved his stiff right hand out of habit. The shoulders and arms seemed to be a little difficult, "Where are the others? Why are there just you two?"

"Look at the time. We've all eaten and gone back." Shikaku replied, "They said that instead of listening to our conspiracy, it's better to go to a hot spring. The newly dug hot spring behind Konoha Hospital seems to be good for healing. Old wounds can be of some use.”

"Then I'll give it a try after I've been busy these days." Fugaku finally gave up on the muscle stretching exercise, got into the side of the kotatsu table, picked up the chopsticks with his left hand, and glanced at Shikaku, "No wonder they are so I can’t wait to run away. You see, you’ve been staying in the hospital and soaking in hot springs for the past few days, and you’ve become much more hydrated.”

Lu Jiu almost couldn't breathe after hearing this, "Shui Ling, I'm the one with the scar on my head, right?"

"So you have a lot of water in your head." Fugaku straightened his back and poked the frozen tofu.

"Uh." Lujiu finally stopped talking.

Hinata Hizu on the side also stopped his chopsticks instantly.He just accidentally imagined the scene of Nara Shikaku and Uchiha Fugaku jumping into the hot spring one by one. He wanted to laugh. Is it funny or not? He looked at Shikaku on the left who was lowering his head and rubbing his face, and then on the right. Fugaku tried his best to challenge the long boiled kelp with his left hand, and pretended he didn't hear it when he made his decision.

So Shikaku was silent for a while before he spoke again, "Uchiha, I think I can go to work as usual tomorrow. Anyway, I'm discharged from the hospital now."

"Ha, you really know how to find an advantage." Fugaku raised his eyebrows, "Minato and I have been working overtime for you for almost a month, and now we are only busy with things tomorrow morning. Hmm, you come back at this time Work."

"It's not like I want an old injury to relapse." Shikaku murmured in a low voice, "If old man Danzo hadn't suddenly lost his temper, I wouldn't have had to be hospitalized for recuperation because of my minor ailment because I was tired from helping him."

"Tch, don't make it sound like you can do all Danzo's work by yourself. Look at me." Fugaku raised his brows and bit the kelp hard, making a crunching sound. "Look at me later." Minato really insists on brokering some damn economic cooperation treaty. And that old guy Danzo has been rebelling against us since the beginning. When we finally smooth things out, he insists on taking over the responsibility. You Let's talk, it's actually not a big deal to let him take responsibility. But look at him, he insists on going to the most important place to get sick. You said it was a big deal. It doesn't matter that he is greedy for work and power. Now he can't even replace him temporarily. None”

"Okay, stop gritting your teeth, I know you've been working hard. The drunkards outside will not be so busy when they get married and have children." The door curtain opened, another cold wind blew through, and Namikaze Minato's voice drifted in. .He weakly dragged his feet into the last empty seat of the kotatsu table, stretched out his hand, "Where's my Ichiraku."

"Hinata Hizashi quickly opened the thermos cup at hand, and then saw the unsightly soaked ramen inside. He gave the chopsticks with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, sir. "

"It doesn't matter, it's just that I'm late." Minato sighed, trying to use chopsticks to break the noodles that were stuck together into pieces for easier eating, "But, what did the group outside do? Although the selection of wine for newcomers is quite good It’s very important, but it’s really ugly to be drunk like this.”

"Sorry, sir." Rizu was even more embarrassed now, "The children are happy today, so..."

"Forget it." Minato picked up a piece of noodles, rinsed it into the hot pot, and put it into his mouth hesitantly, "I drank it anyway, whether I should drink it or not."

"That's right, and I'm still worried if I don't check it again." Lu Jiu answered.

"What if there's another Rock Lee hiding this year who usually kicks around and gets drunk, tsk tsk, the excitement will be even greater." Fugaku quickly continued, "Minato, think about the miserable appearance of the Hokage Tower. Wall, and the big crack next to your office window. Some people must not let him touch a drop of alcohol. By the way, when will your dilapidated house renovation plan be changed to the Hokage Building? Although ninjas have the ability to survive the collapse of the building. Retreat, but it wouldn’t be good if the customer who issued the mission was actually injured or killed.”

Minato was speechless. He silently picked up another piece of noodles, rinsed it and threw it into his mouth, then took it out from between his teeth.

Squeezing out a faint voice, "Let's wait until next spring after finishing the Chunin exams, otherwise it will be a big problem how to dismantle it."

"What do you mean?" Fugaku didn't understand.

But our Hokage-sama has already moved on to the next topic. He turned to Nara Shikaku and smiled, "Hey, my Minister of Intelligence, I just heard you say that you were going to come back to work, which is considered to be a wish to have you back. I and You tell me, there are still people waiting to form a team with you to play casual games. The recent card game has been extremely favorable to Konoha. If you have such a good opportunity, you can't put in the nails that need to be inserted, and pull out the nails that need to be pulled out. , just retire and go to the staff headquarters to work as Humanoid Calculator No. 2, Comrade Yamanaka Haiichi, he misses you so much."

"Ha, haha." Lu Jiu laughed in agreement, "I miss him too. But you see, a guy like me who even asks for pocket money from his wife would really go to the general staff to plot against those people who buy and sell. You will definitely be impeached for improper employment."

"Ah, I'm just sending a message to Haiichi." Our Hokage raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes wandering in the heat of the hot pot, "How many nails do you have left in the Land of Waves?"

"Have some confidence in your subordinates, okay? I'm just on vacation and I didn't die suddenly. No matter what, I can't cause such low-level troubles." Lu Jiu raised an eyebrow at his boss, "Are you trying to do something to Kado? Take action”

"Well, it's almost time." Minato snapped his fingers, "012110."

"Yes, sir." Uchiha Itachi with a cat face in black clothes appeared.

"The third drawer of the office filing cabinet, all the files." Minato threw the key over, "Speed."

"Yes, sir." Itachi walked away in an instant.

"Minato, my son is pretty good, right?" Fugaku had already quietly reduced his presence. He didn't want to listen to the Hokage's work arrangements after work.But his aversion to working overtime didn't stop him from showing off when he saw his eldest son with a strong figure, "If he learns to fly Thunder God, he will definitely be faster than Kakashi."

"However," Shikaku interjected, "Someone, I seem to remember that under normal circumstances, the Hokage Guard Captain will not keep Lord Hokage away from his sight when he is on duty. So, the child was outside the door just now~ What if If Itachi hears and sees that someone is such a talkative old man with ADHD, your image will be completely destroyed."

"It's going to fall apart." Minato also smiled.

"Fatal paralysis is not a good image anyway." Hinata Hizashi answered.

"Haha." Minato laughed, staring at Hizu in surprise, and patted his shoulder heavily, "Hinata family, you finally have a tacit understanding."

"Report." Itachi came back quickly and was outside the door.

"Come in." Minato glanced at Uchiha Fugaku, who was sitting more upright in an instant, and said helplessly.

"Sir, documents." Uchiha Itachi, with gray shoulders, placed the thick document bag respectfully on the table.

"Is it snowing?" Minato opened the file and asked casually.

Itachi stood at attention and reported, "The time is 21:54, light snow, northerly wind level 2-3, temperature minus 6 degrees, and unknown humidity."

Minato handed the document to the Minister of Intelligence, who also had a dull look on his face, "This is what the small business groups from the Country of Waves sent to the Anbu a few days ago. Although the information they collected is mostly commercial, it is also important to your side. Nice addition. Listen to the sound. The children must have been sent back by the instructors."

"All the new genin were disbanded five minutes ago." Itachi reported.

"Yeah." Minato nodded and looked at Hinata Hinashi, "You have been paying more attention to the accounts of the financial system in the capital recently. I asked about it at the meeting today, and the finance minister's eyes seemed wrong. If you see anything wrong, you should take care of it. Just take care of it directly, and don’t forget to send a copy of the evidence to the king.”

"Yes." Rizu looked serious.

"Finally." Minato looked at Fugaku and had to sigh, he really deserved his facial paralysis.But he could only cooperate and become more serious, "I will give you a day off tomorrow, and seize the time to settle the marriage of the two children with Hinata Hizashi. This is an order."

"Yes, sir." Uchiha Fugaku glanced at Hinata Hinashi's big eyes and twitched the corner of his mouth.

However, our Hokage felt that his fist was itching even more, and he even couldn't help but want to hit Fugaku's face a few times.

"012110."

"Yes, my lord."

"Come back to the office with me and continue to work overtime today."

"Yes, my lord."

Uchiha Fugaku watched the Hokage take his eldest son away, still with a paralyzed expression on his face, "In the end, the relaxing dinner turned into a work meal. Minato is really getting bored as time goes by."

"It's not bad to be busy." Nara Shikaku stretched out his hand and pinched his face to warm up his expression, "I haven't asked you yet, but what I just heard from you is that Danzo is really sick, and he is not pretending to be sick to cause trouble."

"How do I know, that's what Minato said anyway, we just have to listen to whatever he says." Fugaku sneered at Shikaku, "They are all movie stars, and you, a spy leader who specializes in hiding the truth, I’m not sure how I, a hard-working internal security guard, can understand. Isn’t that right, Hinata?”

"Yes." Hinata smiled reservedly.

"You guys are really good, I'm going back too. Are you coming with Fugaku?" Nara Shikaku shook his head, put away the documents, and stood up.

"Together, I have to go back and see Sasuke quickly. My cute little son not only sings better than others, but also blushes more cutely when he's drunk." Fugaku also stood up, "I'll take my leave. Thank you for your hospitality."

"No." Hinata Hizashi didn't really get up to see him off. He didn't even feel that Nara Shikaku and Uchiha Fugaku had walked out of the door. He just kept looking at the bowl of ramen that Namikaze Minato didn't take a few bites of. Ramen It was even worse to be soaked in the already cold water.

The so-called busy, but time is limited

That day, Hinata Hizu finally made a decision.

That day, Uchiha Itachi really accidentally saw another face of his father.

That day, it started to snow lightly.
