[Hokage] Kaguya-kun whose gender is Mona Lisa

Winter has quietly come to this village located in the basin. The green mountains and forests are still evergreen, and the sun is clear, but the chill has already filled the air, like tiny bugs, densely and thinly on the exposed skin. crawling.

- It's so cold.

Kaguya, who was crouching at the door of Hizashi's house with his knees in his arms, let out a breath of white air. The breath that was originally carrying heat in the lung ducts was quickly assimilated and disappeared the moment it came into contact with the low-temperature air.

Bored, spitting out again and again into the palm of your hand, like a never-ending game.

When Hinata Neiji opened the door and came out, she saw Kaguya just like this.

Rarely, she combed her hair to reveal a thin white nape, delicate, thin earlobes, and then drooping eyelashes.The clean and soft light-colored bathrobes were folded together, and the wide sleeves slipped down between the raised hands, revealing the thin white forearms.

Hearing the sound, he looked up, but Neji was closing the door solemnly.

"Ningji is so slow ~ Kaguya's legs are numb from squatting."

Kaguya elongated her voice, complained with undulating tones like singing, and then stretched out her hand to him.

"Pull me up?"

Ning Ci pursed his lips, with a troubled expression on his face, as if he really didn't want to pay attention to her, but maybe it was his good manners, or maybe it was his gentle and considerate nature like his father that made him reluctant to walk away.

"Brother Ningci, aren't you going to the training ground?"

Sighing inwardly, Kaguya tugged at the corner of his sleeve to urge her, so Neji, who heard the signal, had no choice but to pull her up, and Kaguya followed his strength to stand up, with a triumphant smile on his face.

Ning Ci struggled for a long time and gave up. He said as he walked: "...Isn't Yunnin Village from the Land of Thunder coming to the village to sign a treaty? And it's also... Hinata-sama's third birthday. Is it okay, Master Kaguya?"

Hui Ye followed behind him, lowered his head, and covered his expression: "...it's okay...you see, it's all adults' business, right? I can't help you if I'm by the side. The family is in chaos, it's better to find Ning Ci came to play—practice!"

Neji: "...I heard it"

Kaguya's body froze, protesting: "What, obviously I sent it here for nothing as a sandbag for Neji! There are so many demands, it's too strict, Neji"

"..."

The topic is over.

Kaguya looked at Neji's back, hesitantly retracted the outstretched hand, and placed it on his chest.

Half a month has passed since the incident at the dojo, during which time the relationship between Hinata's family and the head of the Hinata family fell back to freezing point again. Although Kohina recovered from the shock and said that she did not blame the suddenly unfamiliar Uncle Hinata, Kaguya understood that It's not just a simple killing intent, the action of the day difference symbolizes that the branch's dissatisfaction with the main family has reached a critical point——

That was challenging the authority that the Hyuga family had abided by since the establishment of the village, and it was also... contempt for Hyuga's status.

The day difference has been banned since then, and it was not until Yunin Village and Konoha decided to sign a peace agreement on the birthday of Miss Hinata's family that the village was liberated due to insufficient manpower.

Kaguya, who learned the "truth" from Nizuzu, went to visit him three times before he was able to see him. Neji stood in front of Nisashi, showing a vigilant and protective posture, and the resentment in his eyes was shocking.

...It's quite ironic, since not long ago they were still loving family members.No, Kaguya believes that Neji's feelings for her have not disappeared, but the deeper feelings of admiration for her father must have prevented the child from accepting her sudden transformation into the "oppressor".

...If he thinks this way, maybe he feels that he has been deceived by his "family" - the "family" he has always wanted to protect.The original warmth and care are all hypocritical and ridiculous skins, and after they fall off, there is a cold and dark inside...

And she is one of the accomplices.

At that time, the favorability of Ning Ci, who was nearly "60", had fallen back to the initial "50". He looked up at her curiously, but now he turned into a little beast holding Kunai with its teeth gritted.

In the end, Rizai stopped him. Rizai's spirit was not very good, with crow-colored feathers on his shoulders, his face could even be said to be haggard, and his eyes were black and blue. It seems that the trauma to the brain of the "caged bird" may exceed It exceeded her imagination, but he still maintained his usual demeanor and taught Ningci a gentle lesson.

"Ningji, it's too rude. What did I tell you, did you forget it so quickly?"

That's why Ning Ci softened and knelt back to him unwillingly.

Unable to refuse, she sent Neji away. When she looked at Kaguya, the rolling darkness in Niyzai's eyes in the dark room was mixed with sadness and powerlessness, like a burning black flame, fully revealed to her for the first time. before:

"I'm sorry... Master Kaguya"

Then the second sentence:

"...you shouldn't have come..."

"——Xiao Hinata, it's all right."

Kaguya looked at him seriously, his eyes under the candlelight were like moonlight falling into the water, shimmering and shattered, slowly showing a smile as usual, it was an almost transparent and illusory expression——

Outside the window, the clouds were thick, and it was about to fall.

"So... please don't worry"

"..., do you know?"

Rizai paused, avoided her eyes, and looked at the courtyard shaken by the cold wind.

"Yeah. But what I think... is that you want Neji to stay away from our family..."

"..."

After a while, Rizai met her eyes.

"This is my selfishness as a father....Being born as my child, but having to endure such cruel and unequal treatment...This kind of thing is already pitiful enough-because of the family rules, I have to be like a dog I'm forced to give up my life as well - if it's just me, I can bear it..."

"But, only that kid! I can't watch him become like that...!"

Forbearance and pain let out a low growl, distorting his face.

"——I can't just watch Neji being domesticated and become a tool of my family!"

...That's why he deliberately attacked Hinata Hinata who is an important heir, angered Hyuga Hinata who is the patriarch, and used his own tragedy to wake up Neji...

"...Ah, that's how it is"

Hui Ye said softly.

The day difference is between the family and Neji, and he chooses Neji.This is a conflict of positions, and no matter what Kaguya does now, there will be no change... She has no ability to change this situation now.At the same time, once the relationship between the two parties is too deep, it is easy to cause more harm.

Kaguya quickly said goodbye and left, Neji, who was standing in the corridor, looked back at her, the negative emotions faded from his face like a tide, leaving behind a rigid mask.

Pretending to be indifferent and strong, after the impulse like an angry beast dissipated, the red and swollen eyes and dry lips betrayed him.

... have cried.

Kaguya subconsciously stretched out his hand, but he opened it all at once in a panic. The body was thin and tender, and the back of his hand immediately became red, and he felt a burning pain even though he was protected by pain.

"Xixi—"

There were raindrops hitting the eaves and falling, the air smelled of dust and moisture mixed, the rustling branches and leaves were undulating and weeping under the blow, tears slid down from the leaves and fell to the ground, leaving dark marks.

"—"

Kaguya and Ningji, who seemed to be stunned, faced each other for a moment, lowered their arms, and the soft bathrobe sleeves covered the scars. She lowered her gaze and said in a low voice:

"Eyes, it's better to roll the boiled egg. I'm going back."

The pure white figure walked away from him, the sound of footsteps slowly receding, Hyuga Neji gritted his teeth, thinking of his father's pale face when the curse seal was activated, Hizuru's cold and disgusted eyes——

A sigh.

Hinata Hinata, who appeared at the door at some time, walked up to him and touched his head: "...It's raining heavily, Neji"

……

【Hinata Ningji Favor: 60】

Kaguya:? ? ?

Kaguya received the prompt with a fashionable and confused face, and soon there was the sound of footsteps behind him, Neiji Hinata held an umbrella to catch up, the two umbrellas approached briskly, and lightly touched the edge of the umbrella, The water droplets at the boundary shake off and blend together forcefully.

"...I'm sorry, Kaguya-sama. I... didn't want to hurt you"

In the rain, Neci's voice was fragmented.

Kaguya: "...I know. Neji is just afraid that Uncle Risai will get hurt again...so am I."

"But, I'm very sad, because Brother Ningci seems to be a different person, looking at me with such terrible eyes—here on the chest, very, very sad"

"Brother Neji, do you hate Kaguya?"

Neji immediately shook his head, struggled in his eyes, opened his mouth and closed it again: "I can't hate Master Kaguya! But...I..."

He lowered his voice and bit his lips: "—I can't forgive you for doing that to your father, my family"

Neji probably still doesn't understand the restraint and plunder of the curse seal, but Hinata Nichisai chose to tell him with the cruelest reality.

……

... What kind of Romeo and Juliet ghost plot is this?Could it be that Neji's line is based on sadomasochism?Combined with Neji's original ending... K.AO, meow, it's really possible...

Hui Ye complained frantically in his heart, brushing a wave of barrage in his heart.

"...Then, can I still come and play with Brother Ningci in the future?"

Hui Ye raised her head slightly, her slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, her eyes were like ripples in a lake, moist and soft, careful, the misty rain and fog made everything else blurry except her.

Ning Ci didn't know what he said, so he laughed at the child in front of him: "Okay—well, then next time, Ning Ci won't stare at me again!"

Then Kaguya frowned again, as if thinking of something bad: "—No, Neji might regret it—"

"Well, let's make a secret sign! Whenever I call "Brother Neji", Neji will respond if he doesn't hate Kaguya!"

Ning Ci: "Does that mean that when you are acting like a baby...?"

"..."

Kaguya: "...It's not coquettish! It's only when I'm a little uneasy—ah, don't ask such questions! I don't know why it's so hot!"

So Ning Ci couldn't help but smiled softly: "...Yes, I remember, Master Kaguya"

At that moment, it seemed that he had changed back to the original gentle and considerate boy, with white eyes swaying open, innocent, pure and lovely.

"...I will, always respond to your...because..."
