"Hand-beating uncle, have a big bowl of pork bone miso char siu ramen, add an egg."

Uchiha Rin propped his hands on his chin, and after smelling the tangy aroma, he couldn't help swallowing.

After the lottery for the Chunin Exam was completed, everyone disbanded on the spot. Hongdou was going to feed her little snake, and Itachi, who hadn't returned home for five days, wanted to go back and have a look. The three parted ways at the edge of the death forest and left.

Nothing to do, he simply came here to eat a few bowls of ramen to fill his stomach.

The taste of Ichiraku Ramen is indeed a first-class existence in Konoha. After Shisui came here once, he has come here many times by himself and has become a regular customer.

"Okay, a big bowl of tonkotsu miso char siu ramen." Turning around with his hands and getting ready, at the same time, he didn't forget to turn his head and ask, "When you came here before, you said that you were going to take the Chunin exam, how is it now?" ,cold.

Exam, no injuries. "

"Thanks to Uncle, I have already passed two rounds, and I only need to pass the third round to become an official Chunin."

Uchiha replied casually, the communication between the two is normal every time they eat noodles.

"It's not because of my blessing. This is the reward you deserve for fighting with your strength."

Smiling into a line with his hands and eyes, he seemed more excited to hear the news than any reward he got.

"If you pass, you have become a Chunin genius since you were seven years old. If you say it, you might bring a wave of popularity to my shop, hahaha."

Silently calculating the best time to cook the noodles in his heart, he suddenly said: "By the way, since you have passed two rounds, then I will replace the big bowl with a super big bowl this time. I wish you success in passing the Chunin exam."

He knew that this cheerful girl was already alone and could no longer enjoy the warmth of her family.

So every time the girl came to his shop, he would find various reasons to give her some small surprises, at least let her find a ray of light and warmth here.

Although the light is very small, sometimes it is a seed that gives people hope, turning into the last bright light in the endless darkness.

"Complete, a large bowl of tonkotsu miso char siu ramen with eggs, please take it easy!"

The moment it was served, the extremely rich aroma exploded in his nose like a bomb, and Uchiha Rin couldn't help but took a deep breath, rolling his throat a few times.

The soup and noodles are perfectly blended, with a light golden color.

"I'm starting." He said in a low voice, and under the gentle eyes of his hands, Uchiha Lin picked up the small spoon, intending to taste the thick and fragrant soup first.

Simultaneously.

The boy with short braids and a horizontal scar on his nose opened the curtain and walked in, his eyes were reddish, as if he had just cried.

"Boss, let's have a bowl of today's recommended ramen."

"Iruka, you're here."

Greetings with warm hands, this is also a poor boy whose parents died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion, one of the regular customers in the store.

"Well, Uncle Slapping, I'm here." He replied weakly, and he lay down on the table, his expression full of disappointment.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the girl with a sloppy face, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This girl, he knew.

Uchiha Rin, the genius of the Uchiha clan.

The two geniuses of that family who participated in the Chunin Exam at the age of seven are the subjects of frequent discussions among their group of ninja who graduated almost in the same year.

Of course, he is also aware of the gap between himself and the two of them, at least no matter what, he will not be able to last 5 minutes under the hands of Chunin.

Although he just graduated this year, his mentor Jonin still recommended them to take part in the Chunin exam.

However, probably the teacher didn't expect them to pass, it was just to see and see.

There was a wry smile at the corner of his mouth, even though he thought so, how could he be reconciled to how easily his team was knocked down by the fellow ninja Waicun's team and took away the scroll.

He always felt that he was holding back the other two teammates, which led to this result.

"Okay, Iruka, your ramen."

The slapped words interrupted his thoughts, and Iruka hurriedly responded, holding a large bowl full of ramen with both hands.

"Hand uncle, and specially gave me some more..."

His heart was a little moved, since his parents died unexpectedly during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, apart from the three generations of adults who occasionally came to see him, only the hand-slapping uncle cared about him like this.

Thinking of his deceased parents, coupled with the failure of the Chunin exam, when he took the first bite of ramen, a teardrop rolled down his face.

Sniffing hard, he didn't want to show such a vulnerable side in front of outsiders, who were still a little girl.

"Cry freely if you want to cry, no one will laugh at you, Iruka-kun."

Iruka, who was weeping silently, froze for a moment, showing an incredulous expression.

Subconsciously, she turned her head to the side, and her bright smile shone into her heart like a ray of sunshine.

Is she... is comforting me?

Because of his status as an orphan, Iruka, who had always been bullied, couldn't react for a while.

"When I go out to eat bowls of noodles, I can meet old faces from the original book. I'm not lucky." Uchiha Lin complained secretly, the smile on his face didn't change at all, it was still as warm.

He likes to help the elderly to cross the road, try to help as much as possible, etc. These are all the character designs created by him as Uchiha Rin. Someone is crying in front of him. If he doesn’t ask at all, it obviously doesn’t fit the character’s setting. .

Acting, he is a professional.

Of course, if he doesn't wear this layer of clothing, it doesn't mean that he won't do these things.

But with his character, he does good deeds conveniently, and he helps if he helps. It is obviously impossible to face the villagers with an almost selfless attitude like the one shown in the show.

"I... I didn't cry."

Raising his hands, raising his sleeves, rubbing his eyes vigorously a few times, Iruka managed to squeeze out an ugly smile.

"Look, I didn't cry at all."

As an adult who has come all the way from Iruka's age now, Uchiha Lin is very clear about the mentality of a young man who is forced to do nothing in front of him.

You can hide and cry secretly when you are alone, but if you are in front of outsiders, especially girls, you absolutely don't want them to see your weak side.

At this time, what to do is not to open the wound, let him cry in public regardless of the humble self-esteem in his heart, but to respond seriously, and not in the tone of facing a child, but in a relationship with an adult. Conversational tone, to communicate.

Sometimes, what they lack is this little bit, two words called "equality" and "respect".

"Iruka-kun, your performance in the Chunin exam was really handsome."

Iruka, who was holding back tears at the girl's words, suddenly widened his eyes.

At the same time, leaning against the outer wall of the store, wearing a red coat, a brown robe inside, and clogs, the middle-aged man with white hair and long braids, showing a meaningful smile.
