Is it an illusion that as an Uchiha, I am always captured by strange loves?

The thin blanket wrapped her thin body, giving her meager and sporadic warmth in the endless darkness. Seli closed her eyes tiredly.

Her body was a little tense, and even when she fell asleep, she was not completely relaxed. There was no light in the silent room, only the faint sound of breathing and the slight sound of turning over.

early morning

Feli got up very early. She is not a person who sleeps much. What's more, a stranger stayed in her home last night, which inevitably made her sleep uneasy. She gently opened the door a small crack. The damp wooden door made a creaking sound, awakening Se-ri from her sleep.

Se-ri opened her eyes blankly, blinked, and woke up but not completely.

"Good morning, did I disturb you? Sorry, I have to go out in a while. If you want to sleep, you can continue sleeping." Feli walked to the bathroom, holding a toothbrush in her mouth, and greeted Seli while washing up.

"It's okay, I'm already awake. What is Feli going to do when she goes out? Maybe I can go out with you?" Seli folded the blanket and placed it neatly on the sofa and asked.

"I'm just going to buy some medicine." Feli seemed a little surprised to hear this answer. She turned her head and glanced at Shili's thin body, "But you are still injured, you should have a good rest."

"It's okay, please don't worry about me, my injury is not a problem."

"Then let's go out together."

There are very few shops on Luo Wei Street. If you want to buy things, you need to go to the nearby city center. The Sky Arena is the most prosperous place economically in this area, but it is limited to this. The capital here is not circulated, and 90% of the wealth can be controlled. In the hands of a very small number of people, this can lead to chaos.

When a person spends his entire life unable to fight against capital, violence will ensue.

Feli took Seri and walked for a long time before they arrived near the Sky Arena. The industry here is very developed and there are a wide variety of shops. It is known as the city of desire where as long as you have money, you can buy it.

She doesn't come here often on weekdays. She usually goes to the old pharmacy at the street corner to buy some medicine. But in the past two weeks, the owner of the old pharmacy, who had been closed for three days, was found dead at home for a long time, and his The son seemed to have no intention of continuing to work as a medicine shop, so he could only walk to the Sky Arena to buy medicine.

She found the pharmacy here and skillfully named the herbs she needed.

"Do you take all the medicines you take?" She suddenly heard Shili ask.

"Yes, it's an old problem, so I know what to eat without seeing a doctor."

"Let me do it next time..."

"what?"

"Let me buy medicine for you next time. This road is not very close. It seems that your body needs to rest."

"I have memorized the route. As for Feli, just wait for me at home." Shili took the packed medicine, raised his head, looked at Feli and said.

"Ahem, then I'll take you around here a little longer. I can't let you get lost while helping me buy medicine." Feli was a little surprised that Seli wanted to help her share the burden, but she didn't refuse. After all, walking such a long way did have some effects on her body. Just like now, she couldn't suppress the itching in her throat and started to cough.

She held Seri's hand, walked slowly, and began to introduce this commercial street to Seri.

From buying medicine to the bus stop, she even talked about where the crepes are better. Feli rarely talks so much, and few people listen patiently to her about trivial matters that are not very important. , this fresh feeling made Feli novel and happy, like a depressed black and white painting suddenly injected with a hint of color and became vivid, so she told everything she knew, and Seli also listened attentively. I secretly wrote down the route in my mind and had a general understanding of the city in my mind.

"What is that building?" Shili asked, pointing to the tallest building here.

"..."

The cheerful mood came to an abrupt end, as if thinking of some bad memories, Feli's face began to darken.

"That's the Sky Arena, stay away from there, it's very dangerous there."

Feli seemed to hate this place. Seri silently noted this, said hello, and said she wanted to go back.

After returning home, Feli seemed to have relaxed a little. She boiled water and boiled the herbs she bought together. The air was filled with a thick medicinal smell, which even made her eyes smoky.

There was some silence in the air for a while.

Maybe it was a sudden memory, maybe it was a listener who was not familiar with her past, which made Feli suddenly want to say something.

So she sat down slowly and said, "When I was a child, I didn't live here. My father was very good at crafts. He opened a dessert shop near the Sky Arena. Our whole family lived here." over there."

"Our family's business is not bad, and we have never had any grudges with anyone. I thought we would be ordinary and happy for the rest of our lives."

"But suddenly one day, a man came out of the Sky Arena. He lost the game, so he deliberately made trouble and smashed up our dessert shop. My father resisted but was beaten up. He called the police. When the police came, , that scumbag has already run away."

"He obviously did bad things, but he didn't get the punishment he deserved. In the end, he was cruel to us."

"He killed his father who was out shopping for goods, then came into the house and killed his sleeping mother. He also wanted to kill me. Hearing the sound of the police arriving, he stabbed me and ran away."

"I survived, but my lungs also had problems. From then on, I had to drink medicine every day to stay alive. I didn't dare to continue living there. I was afraid that he would find out that I was still alive. I sold my property and moved here. , I don’t dare to go out at will, except to buy some necessities, I just stay at home all day.”

"So many years have passed, and the criminal has not been caught. The police have given up long ago. The heavy life has finally become just a case stored in the database. Se-ri, as a child of a rich family, you should not be too worried. I can understand this feeling. The dignity and life of ordinary people are being trampled on, but the laws of this country cannot protect them."

"This is so scary. I have thought about it more than once. If I had money, the police would not have closed the case so hastily, and the murderer would get what he deserves. Or, if I was strong, I could pick it off myself. His head was sacrificed to my family, but I am just an ordinary person, even an ordinary person with a short life, and I can't do anything, I can only hide."

Seri looked at Feli's moist eyes and tried hard to understand what she said, because in the world of ninjas, as tools, ninjas' status is no better than that of civilians. Class status is a gap that can never be crossed. , Article 3 of the Ninja Code: During non-mission periods, civilians shall not be harmed in any form.

Civilians grow food, produce goods, and develop the economy. The daimyo governs the country, controls food and the economy, and thereby controls the ninja. Therefore, harming civilians during non-mission periods is a violation of the ninja code. Violation of the regulations will be called "waste".

So Se-ri didn't fully understand why the cart was put before the horse here, but that didn't stop her from giving Feli a hug and said, "It's okay, Feli, you don't have to hide, I will protect you."
