Naruto's two-color pupils

Half an hour later, Sa Ren invited me to dinner.However, I discovered that this person actually has a phobia of choice.He had been staring at the menu with few dishes for a long time, but he hadn't made a decision yet.I looked at the clock uneasily and said, "Saren, can you please hurry up?"

"But I just don't know what I want to eat."

"Just order some."

"No. When you eat with your teammates for the first time, you must consider their feelings and be more generous." He covered his mouth with his hand and frowned while looking at the menu.

"Then what did you order when you came here before?"

"Before? I used to come here with a bowl of rice and a steak platter! But it's not enough for the two of us!" After saying that, he suddenly laughed evilly, "It's a pity that Kamio is not here, otherwise it would be better Yeah, that guy definitely doesn’t have a phobia of choice.”

"There are three people. Wouldn't it be worse to have more people?"

"How come?" he said with a smile.

"Why not?" I asked.

"Think about it, if there are three or more people, there will definitely be more than two boys. Boys eat better! But girls are different, especially when there is only one boy and one girl. Kamio He will definitely give me some advice." He said, "I don't know what you like to eat, so if I order less for you, I'll have more for myself, I'm so sorry."

I didn't expect Sa Ren to be such a face-saving person.

The custom in the Kingdom of Wind is that men are responsible for ordering food and women are only responsible for eating.Otherwise, the person who invites guests orders the food, and the person who is invited is responsible for eating.And most of the time it’s men who treat us.

At this point I was hesitating to look at the menu myself, but with that in mind I let it go.Although I heard that other countries do not have this custom, this is the case here.

I was getting impatient, and so was the guy behind the counter.I saw that the waiter wanted to come over and take our order many times. This would make him appear more polite and caring to the guests.But when he wanted to come over countless times, he found that Sa Ren hadn't ordered yet.He has glanced at our table numerous times.

I looked up at the restaurant.White walls, sofas and chairs wrapped in red cloth, and wooden tables.No matter how you look at it, it is an extremely ordinary restaurant.The surroundings were filled with the strong smell of coffee and a little smell of smoke.I felt disgusted when I smelled this.I turned around and saw a table of people sitting behind us. There were only four people in total, and three of them had cigarettes or pipes in their hands.I don't think I'll be able to taste the fresh air during this period.

I took one last look at the waiter who was almost twitching, and asked Sa Ren: "What do you want to give me?"

He replied without thinking: "I don't know."

Just when I was about to complain to him, he looked over the menu and asked me: "Yue Yexiu, what do you like to eat?"

He looked a little embarrassed.

"As long as it's not meat," I said. "If there are no vegetables, just raw meat."

"Do you like eating raw food?"

I shook my head.

"I don't really like it. But I'm used to it."

"why?"

"When doing long-term missions, ninjas must eat to replenish their physical strength. But if you eat cooked meat or freshly grilled meat, you will be easily discovered by the enemy, right?" I leaned back in the chair and said .

"So thoughtful." He said, "I'm not on a mission now."

"Eating raw food as soon as I'm on a mission will be very uncomfortable at first. I'll vomit and may get sick, so I've been accustomed to this kind of diet since I was determined to be a ninja since I was a child."

"I think... you should eat more meat." He said, "You look very thin..." Then, he looked at me from top to bottom.

I didn't answer.

So, he looked at me with a dull look for a while, and then immersed himself in reading the menu again.I heard him say in a very small voice: "It's over. From now on, when we do tasks, even I have to eat raw food."

"If it's not a special mission," I wanted to comfort him, "I can cook for you."

He looked up at me doubtfully.

"Really." I said dissatisfiedly, "If I want to say that what I am best at, besides physical skills, cooking is it."

He remained expressionless.Finally, he put down the menu and said happily: "It's ready!"

"congratulations."

The waiter at the counter immediately picked up paper and pen and rushed over, walked to the table, patted his apron, and asked excitedly: "Hello, have you finished your order?"

"Ah."

"Please say."

"Two steak platters." He also looked at the waiter happily.

Two servings?What do you want, Sa Ren?

The waiter began to write quickly on the paper and murmured: "Two steak platters... how rare is it? And ketchup or barbecue sauce? Our restaurant recommends 7% rare steak. There may be some bleeding." A little bit, but it will be tender and fragrant. If you use barbecue sauce, it will be a little spicy."

"One is 8-minute rare with tomato sauce, and the other is 1-minute rare..." As he was talking, he suddenly asked me: "Do you eat spicy food?"

"Don't eat."

"That's all ketchup."

The waiter was not surprised at all. He smiled and nodded. After writing it down, he asked, "Do you want any drinks?"

"Yes, and two iced orange teas," he said.

"Okay, please wait a moment." After saying that, the waiter left a pile of napkins and left with the paper and pen.

Sa Ren was happy after ordering the food. After taking a deep breath, he snorted happily.

"Well, let's talk!" he said.

"Ah."

"Let me tell you, Tsukiyoshi. My dream is actually to be a teacher in a ninja school. What do you think?" He crossed his legs and leaned back on the chair.

"Hmm. Isn't it a bit of a waste for a talent like you to become a teacher in a ninja school?"

He laughed. "That's true! I don't have any ambition at all, do I?"

I look at him.

"In terms of ambition, mine is much greater than yours." Finally, I snorted and said.

"Ok?"

"My goal is to become the strongest ninja in physical skills in this era." I said, "Furthermore, I must break through the boundaries of physical strength. My physical strength is no worse than that of you boys."

"Oh." He lowered his head and raised his eyes to look at me, "It's hard to say, Yue Yexiu. Although I don't want to hurt you, I have to say that after a certain period of time, a girl's physical strength will decline significantly, and it will not even be as good as before. . Boys are just the opposite... That's how I am. As you can see, I am a ninjutsu ninja who hardly uses taijutsu, but I can't say that my physical strength is better than yours!"

"Sa Ren, I have to say that you know a lot." I interrupted him and said, "Who did you listen to about these things?"

As soon as he thought about it, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"Hey! I didn't mean that!" He said quickly, "But what I said is the truth, don't you think? I'm telling the truth! It's just... I always chatted with boys before, so... you Just pretend I never said that word?"

&n

bsp; "When do you mean 'a period'?" I asked him grimly.

He showed an awkward smile and explained: "I heard it from my classmates. Really, it means...when girls reach the age of 12 or 13, their physical strength will decline."

"Are you very mature? Sa Ren." I said, "What are you thinking in your head?"

"Hahaha... No, no. Boys, don't they always care more about girls?"

I touched the bandage on my right eye, and Sa Ren's words reminded me of what Xiu had said to me before.

"I know you are very ambitious, but generally speaking, girls' physical strength is far inferior to boys. No matter how strong your physical skills are, they are within a certain range. I know you are unwilling to do so, so you have to have Ambitions big enough, you have to break through this boundary. Our new generation of ninjas is born to surpass the previous generation of ninjas. You are not an ordinary taijutsu ninja, Tsukiyoshi, you have extraordinary talent and chakra control ability .”

"So, Yue Yexiu has an older brother, right?" He suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"Well, that's it."

"how old is he?"

"He...should be 17 years old." I said.

"What a pity, I don't have any brothers or sisters anymore."

"Do you want one?"

"Of course, I used to always want to have a younger brother!" he said with some disappointment.

"I have one, how about giving it to you?"

"You have two brothers?"

"To be precise, I have 4 brothers in total."

He looked at me again with glassy eyes.

"I have three older brothers and one younger brother." I said.

"It's so rare." He said and sighed, "I really envy you!"

"Do you think having so many brothers is a good thing?"

"Isn't it?"

"My brother used to beat me a lot."

"Because you are disobedient?" he said in a strange tone.

"Probably so."

"Isn't this normal?" he said cheerfully.

"Stop gloating. I'm just giving you an example. Don't ask me any more questions about this."

He looked at me strangely, put his elbows on the table, and held his hands.

"Why don't you go see Mu Hua at night?" he suggested.

"He's probably gone home," I said.

"How could the injury heal so quickly?"

"Didn't you know that Bai Chuan was working in the hospital during this time?" I looked out the window at the large building in the vast white sand, where my mother was now.I haven't visited her for a long time, so why not go visit her tonight.

"Shirakawa..." He searched for this person in his memory, "Oh, I know. That medical ninja."

"Not yet, but he will be in the future."

Having said this, I suddenly felt strange.In my opinion, Shirakawa is probably the most difficult person in this class, but he failed the last genin test, which is really incredible.As far as I know, the so-called genin exam is a team of three people who have to compete with a ninja teacher.The stronger ones will join the ranks and become genin, while the weaker ones will go back and continue attending ninja school.

There were still top students in the class he was assigned to last time, so no matter how much the third person held him back, it shouldn't hinder them from showing their strength.

He also said that it was a pity that he didn't have genin last time, but it should be fine this time, and it would be possible to be assigned to the same class as me.

"What a shame," he sighed, "I wanted to invite him to finish the meal with me."

"Even if he wasn't hurt, he wouldn't be here," I said.

"why?"

"He's wearing a mask, which means he doesn't want people to see his face. How do you think people eat?"

He nodded thoughtfully.

"Yue Yexiu, do you want me to see you off?" he asked enthusiastically as he stood at the door of the store after eating.

Thinking of Sa Ren's face-saving aspect, I replied, "Sorry to trouble you."

"It's okay." He said, "Where are you going next?"

"I'm going to the flower shop to buy two tulips for my mother." I looked at the hospital building melancholy and bit my lip.

The white sand is like the Milky Way, flowing through the desert.The sand is often blown up by the wind and the dunes are constantly changing, but the desert is always here and will not change for hundreds of years.This is my hometown, this is the country of wind.

We are all mortals born in the desert, and everyone is the same.The desert never rejects any outsider.

I conveniently put two orange-red tulips into a glass flask filled with half a bottle of water.Tulips exude a fragrance, like a light veil, covering the ward filled with medicinal smell.

I glanced at the glass bottle again, then turned and walked towards the bed.Shoes make a different sound on the floor than they do in the desert.I sat down on the chair next to the bed without hesitation, sighed, and then looked at my pale mother.

A virus some time ago left her completely paralyzed, and she could no longer leave the hospital to see the outside world, depriving her of what little freedom she had.Now, only her left arm and neck can move freely throughout her body.

She turned her head towards me, and a strand of black and blue-purple hair hung down to her face.She smiled at me, and the smile on her face spread gently like ripples on the water.Her lips were colorless and her eyes were dull and weak. When she smiled, I noticed a few freckles on her face.

She stared at me with a pair of blood-red eyes, but it was as if she hadn't seen me, and her pupils were lifeless.She pursed her lips slightly and blinked tiredly.

"My child... how are you... lately?"

"I'm fine," I replied immediately in order to prevent her from saying too much, "Ryuuta is fine too, and Shuichi came back to see us recently."

I wanted to ask her how she was, but as soon as I saw her expressionless look, I felt there was no need to ask.

After hearing this, there was a hint of joy on her face, and she nodded, as if she wanted me to continue talking.

"I may be able to become a genin. Ryuuta also plans to go to ninja school next semester..." I said, "I will also have a new companion..."

She grinned, but no sound came out of her throat.I saw that she showed a row of teeth that were still white and neat, just like when she took photos before.The quilt beside her moved, and then she slowly stretched out her left hand from the quilt.I hold her hand.She has lost weight again, and I can feel the edges of the bones on the back of her hand.Her hands were very hot, probably because there was a heating pad under the quilt, which made her feel hot.

Her hands were losing strength and she looked tired.She turned her head and closed her eyes.

How much she wants to cook for us or sew clothes for us again, but now she can't even sit up.She really wants to live with us, she really wants to watch us grow up, she really wants to protect us in critical moments, she really wants to do so many things for us, but she can't do it now.

I know all this very well.She doesn't have much time...

"Mom..." I murmured.
