【Ming Zuo】Walking Alone in Darkness

"I want to eat ramen tonight!"

"No."

"I didn't eat yesterday, I said!"

"But I ate it the day before yesterday, you eat too much instant food!"

"But I really want to eat... Ichile's ramen is really delicious, Sasuke..."

"...All right! Let's eat tonight, but only one bowl is allowed!"

"Sasuke is really the best, I say!"

"..."

Shikamaru stared at the two people in the seat in front of him named Naruto... Forget it, he didn't want to think about Shishi, it was really incomprehensible.

When did these two get along so well...

And were these two guys like the character they are now?

I feel that Sasuke should be more able to put on airs, and Naruto should be more mischievous, right?

...Ah, here we go again.

Shikamaru saw that the little girl with a red bow was holding something in her hand, and rubbed it against it.

"Sa, Sasuke-kun..."

Sasuke turned his head and was stunned when he saw Sakura.

For a while, he didn't recognize this person as his former comrade-in-arms. He only had a vague memory of what he looked like at this age during the same period. Although he had been back for a while, he spent 90% of his time on behalf of the crane. Don't worry, I really didn't pay much attention to the people next to me.

Sasuke saw the pink thing in her hand, it was... a letter?

Six years old, Sakura is also six years old, can you hand over love letters at this age? ?

Although ashamed, Sasuke really didn't have much idea about whether he was handed a love letter when he was young. He sighed in his heart and raised his hand to stop the girl opposite her from speaking: "Thank you, I know what you want to say, the answer No."

The little girl pursed her mouth, tears rolled in her eyes, turned and ran away.

Sasuke was a little embarrassed and sighed.He's really... not good at dealing with this kind of thing.

Of course he didn't hate her, and he was ashamed of her, but...it was still impossible, and she shouldn't run after him anymore.

Turning his head, he saw Naruto staring at him angrily.

Ah... Speaking of which, this guy used to like Sakura.This is... unhappy?

Sasuke was affected by the memory of his previous life, and always felt that Naruto was going to be with Hinata, so he subconsciously looked up in the classroom, and then saw Hinata secretly looking at Naruto a few seats away .

"Look over there." Sasuke turned Naruto's head to look in Hinata's direction, "How do you feel about her?"

Hinata blushed and quickly lowered her head.Naruto was dazed for a moment, and then realized that Sasuke asked him to look at the girl, and knocked off Sasuke's hand forcefully with a "slap", and roared: "Sasuke is a super idiot, I say!!!"

"...?" Sasuke was a little confused.

Naruto sat on the branch of the big tree where they used to have lunch together, still holding his breath.

But a six-year-old child only knows how to act on his intuition, and he can't say what he is angry with.

He just felt that someone else wanted to be so close to Sasuke, and he was very unhappy. Sasuke paid attention to others seriously, and he was also unhappy. Sasuke actually asked him to pay attention to others, and he was so unhappy that he exploded.

"Hey, Naruto." Sasuke stood under the tree with his head up, beckoning to Naruto, "Come down."

"No way!"

Sasuke sighed, how can a guy who hasn't practiced chakra control climb so high...not afraid of falling.Chakra was ignited at the soles of his feet, and he walked up the tree trunk step by step, hanging upside down on the branch above Naruto, and Naruto's eyes were straight.

"Sasuke Sasuke!! How did you do this!"

"Then I'll teach you." With a smile in Sasuke's eyes, he removed Chakra and turned over and landed next to Naruto, explaining the main points to Naruto, "Don't use brute force at the beginning, there is skill."

Speaking of this... Back then Sakura was going to tell herself the skills, but she didn't listen for the so-called "fairness", and rushed up the tree like two idiots with Naruto...

It was not by controlling Chakra at all, it was climbed to the top of the tree with slight control, run-up and death...

As if mentally retarded, why don't you ask about the skills and practice together?Sasuke silently deleted this memory, he was too mentally retarded to admit that he had experienced it.

Sasuke stood by the tree and watched Naruto practice carefully, and suddenly said, "Don't worry about it just now."

"Ah?" Naruto was shocked, turned to look at Sasuke, and was instantly happy, "Huh! You know you are wrong, you are not allowed to do this kind of thing in the future!" Don't follow others, and don't want me to follow others!

Sasuke said seriously: "Indeed, although I think Hinata is more suitable for you, but if you like Sakura, I can't stop it. It's really up to you to decide... Hey Naruto!"

Sasuke rushed forward and caught Naruto who fell from the tree.

"What are you talking about!" Naruto was furious, "Who do I like! You are my good friend, but you are the one who looks at others every day! Sasuke is stupid! Idiot!"

……Eh?

So the object of jealousy is Sakura and Hinata?

Sasuke felt that this was different from what he remembered... Could it be because when he was six years old, he was not interested in the two of them, but only in himself?

He was only six years old, anyway, it was too early, and he should think about this kind of problem later.

Sasuke didn't feel that his thoughts had drifted to the Land of Thunder, and he said naturally: "Okay, then don't think about them. Will you have a ramen for dinner?"

"Good!!" Naruto was elated, and the topic was successfully changed.

The child's breath lasted only 10 minutes, and Naruto was as usual when school was over, holding Sasuke's hand and talking happily, Sasuke responded occasionally, but he didn't think he was annoying.

"Then I'll 'bang' - hit the ground, then 'thump', and then... eh?"

Sasuke next to him stopped suddenly. Naruto kept holding his hand, staggered for a while, looked back puzzledly, then followed Sasuke's line of sight, and saw a gentle boy standing beside them In front of them, he smiled at them.

"Hello." He greeted Naruto politely, and Naruto responded with a little embarrassment, and turned to look at Sasuke, feeling his heart skip a beat.

Sasuke's expression is wrong! ?

Who is this! ?

Naruto's intuition told him a strong sense of crisis, and Sasuke sure enough!Let go of his hands!let go! !

"Brother, why are you here? Aren't you busy at work?" Sasuke walked over in surprise, his eyes sparkling, and his face unconsciously showed a smile that would never be shown except in front of Itachi, and he didn't notice that there was a cat beside him The golden hair has been sour to ferment.

"Come and see you." Itachi raised his hand with a smile, and lightly poked Sasuke's forehead, "You're busier than me, and you haven't been home for dinner lately. Today's work is over early, so I want to pick you up After school. Do you want me to practice shuriken with you?—Take your friends with you."

Sasuke looked back at Naruto, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I promised to eat ramen with him today, and I will go home after eating."

Itachi looked at Naruto with probing eyes, but didn't ask any more questions, smiled softly, and rubbed the top of Sasuke's head: "Okay, I'll go back first."

Sasuke has been back to this world for more than half a month. Although he asked his mother to make an extra bento every day, and would accompany Naruto for dinner at night, he never thought of bringing Naruto back to the Uchiha mansion.

Uchiha's status in the village is already in jeopardy. He is a child, and no one will mind if he is close to Naruto, but if Kyuubi is connected with the Uchiha clan, I am afraid that no one in the high-level village will sit. Living.

Although he can't bear to let Naruto live alone, Sasuke can't risk the whole Uchiha clan, at least for now, he can only let Naruto be alone for a while.

"Hello, Sasuke."

Sasuke looked back at him, and saw Naruto grabbing the meat from his bowl openly.Sasuke ordered tomato noodles, only two slices of beef, and an extra fish plate.Maybe Sasuke at this age should be angry and fight with Naruto, but this Sasuke in his 30s didn't feel provoked, instead he pushed the bowl over and gave Naruto another piece of meat and most of the fish board.

Naruto was so angry that he had nothing to say.

"Sasuke really likes your brother..."

Yile's boss sniffed, why did he smell a sour smell?

Sasuke was thinking about family matters, so he didn't pay much attention to Naruto's mood, but said: "Well, I have something to do at home these days, so I won't have dinner with you tonight. You go to the restaurant to pack some food and go home, don't always eat instant noodles. Is there enough money?"

"It's enough..." Naruto was still listless, Sasuke turned around and looked at him strangely: "What's wrong?"

"Sasuke likes your brother, it's more important than my brother..."

Sasuke was a little taken aback.

He thinks more than Naruto, now he has everything, and Naruto...has nothing.

Because seeing himself getting along with Itachi made him even more sad, right?You might even think that you will lose your only friend.

"Don't think so much." Sasuke said helplessly, "It's just that there is something wrong at home recently, but it can be resolved in a few days. After that, it will be the same as before, and I will have dinner with you at night, okay."

Naruto turned his head to look at Sasuke, there was a slight smile in the delicate child's eyes, he was so beautiful, Naruto's face turned red unconsciously, he chuckled, dropped his chopsticks and hugged Sasuke vigorously.

"Sasuke is really the best!"

"Hey idiot... let me go and eat your noodles!"

In the next few days, Sasuke not only did not accompany Naruto at night, but even skipped class during the day.Naruto was a little apprehensive, it seems... is there really something going on at home?Is it serious?But I went to ask Iruka and said that Sasuke just asked for sick leave and said he was not feeling well.

Then why don't you go to Sasuke's house to see...

It was only then that Naruto realized that Sasuke often went to his house, but he had never been to Sasuke's house, and he didn't even know where Sasuke's house was...

"Iruka-sensei!"

"Huh?" Iruka asked strangely, "It's really rare, Naruto, you're not the first one to run away after school, what's wrong?"

"Is Sasuke sick?"

"Said yes, and he took two days off."

"Do ordinary friends visit each other?"

Iruka was amused, and squatted down to look at Naruto at the same level, and rubbed his messy hair: "Yes, Naruto wants to see Sasuke? Sigh, it's been a day, right?"

Naruto scratched his head embarrassedly.

"But Sasuke's house is far away, do you know the way?"

"I don't know...that's why I came to ask Iruka-sensei!"

Iruka showed him the way: "The place where the Uchihas live has a big gate, which is still very conspicuous, but it's far away. The teacher also has something to do today, so don't go alone. I'll take you there after class tomorrow. "

"how far?"

"Hmm... It's very far away, children can't walk that far by themselves."

"Oh."

"Okay, go home early!" Today was the day when the teacher went to report, and Iruka told Naruto a few more words before running away.

Naruto put his schoolbag on his shoulder and walked along the path pointed by Iruka.

Only after walking through it once did he know how long the road was.

Usually, he only plays in the center of the village, and his house is not far from Huoying Rock, which is his favorite place to play.But now, after walking for a long, long time, farther than the farthest grove he has ever been to, he managed to see the gate engraved with the same family crest as on Sasuke's clothes.

It was getting dark already, and the tall building somehow gave people a cold and gloomy feeling, and Naruto felt a little scared.

...Usually, Sasuke had dinner with him and it was basically dark. Does he have to walk so far alone every day?

Naruto suddenly felt uncomfortable and rubbed his eyes hard.

"……Naruto?"

Naruto quickly put down his hands, and when he saw someone he was familiar with, he wanted to cry even more: "Sasuke..."

Sasuke was startled, why is this guy crying?He jumped directly in front of Naruto from a distance: "What's wrong with you? Why did you come here... Hurry up and go home, didn't you eat at night?"

"I..." Naruto wanted to apologize to Sasuke, he felt ashamed and hated himself for not knowing how to repay, but he didn't say a word with his mouth puckered.

Sasuke was a little helpless, turned around and said, "I'll send him back first."

"Won't it take too much time?"

It was an unfamiliar voice, Naruto had never heard it before, but I felt that this person's voice was clear and stable, it was the kind of natural voice that would make people feel at ease.

After that, he doesn't know.
