Chapter 24 Pan-Fried Saury

The Sixth Hokage and His Female Disciple

Hatake Kakashi was walking on the road with a rare edition of "Kindness to Heaven".He holds the novel in one hand, and puts the other in his pocket at an angle.

Today is a rare free day for Sixth Hokage.

Naruto, who had asked for a day off to go on a public trip with Sasuke before, came to Hokage to sell his vacation today. Kakashi mercilessly enslaved a young disciple who had countless times more energy than him, and all the troublesome documents accumulated these days It was left to him to deal with, and the euphemistic name was "A test on the ability of future Hokage heirs to handle documents".

Even if Naruto wasn't fooled, he was tied up in the office and couldn't move, struggling to handle the documents with his hair in pain.

The Sixth Hokage, who had already been trained, quickly finished dealing with that part of himself, and walked out of the Hokage Building with ease during the rare free lunch time, ready to go to the lunch appointment with another disciple of his own.

When they walked to the gate of Konoha General Hospital, the girl with cherry hair was already waiting there.Seeing Kakashi approaching from a distance, he waved his arms to greet him.

Kakashi took out his hand from his pocket, waved it a few times as a response, and speeded up his pace thoughtfully, walking to Haruno Sakura's side.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Kakashi. Have you decided where to go to eat?"

The female disciple who hadn't seen him for a long time walked beside him in a red dress and asked curiously.

Since Naruto became the assistant of Hokage, the time Kakashi and his other two students met has been greatly reduced.

Sasuke went out of the village to look for Kaguya's ruins, and it was fast to come back once every ten days and a half months. Every time he came and went in a hurry, he must see Naruto but not necessarily Kakashi; There is a stable and busy job in the general hospital. As a medical ninja with excellent ability and a disciple of the Fifth Generation Senju Tsunade, he is relied on by many people in the village.

Coupled with the fact that Kakashi himself became the Sixth Hokage, the follow-up of Konoha's Fourth Ninja World War was enough for him to be very busy, and even the time for mourning his old friends was compressed again and again, let alone caring for Naruto other students.

Kakashi recalled this, and felt a little owed to Sakura.

The three students in the original seventh class are of great significance to him.

Naruto is the son of Minato-sensei, and he is very similar to that person back then, he is his most concerned disciple; Sasuke is Itachi's younger brother, the orphan of the Uchiha family, and he is so similar to himself back then, he is his most proud disciple; As the only girl, Sakura is also a medical ninja. Although her temper is not at all similar to that of Lin back then, she still gets Kakashi's rare pampering and care in comparison with the two boys.

Now Sakura has become the one he misses the least.It can be said that things are impermanent.

It was also set off by those two uneasy male disciples.

"Sakura, is there any shop you want to try?"

Hatake Kakashi frowned, smiling softly on the face under the mask.

"I don't have any good choices." Sakura recalled for a moment, and answered very simply, "Ms. Kakashi will decide."

"Then let's go to the restaurant that Naruto recommended last time." Kakashi thought for a while and said, "It's rare, Sasuke also said that the food at that restaurant is delicious."

"Is it the shop recommended by both Sasuke-kun and Naruto?" Sakura didn't know what she thought of, her beautiful leaf-green eyes were thoughtful, and then she smiled and said, "Okay."

So Kakashi followed the map Naruto narrated in his memory, led Haruno Sakura to turn left, left, right, then left and then right again, and finally came to a secluded corner of Konoha Village, and finally found the shop

Homestay.

Kakashi looked up at the signboard, and a subtle sense of familiarity emerged in his heart.

So this is the store, he thought.I've been to this store before.

No wonder Shikamaru said that the store he recommended to Naruto was not at all.Presumably Naruto remembered the wrong way, and he and Sasuke accidentally entered here by mistake.

He recalled his previous experience and discovered details that he had never paid attention to. His heart was shaken for a moment, and his posture froze there.

It turns out that from that time, from that time...

"Kakashi-sensei?"

The student's voice called his attention back.

When Kakashi came back to his senses, Sakura was staring at him worriedly.He smiled at the girl, indicating that he was fine, but he was just in a daze: "It's fine. Let's go in, Sakura."

When he walked into the store, Kakashi was slightly dazed by the familiar furnishings as before.However, he didn't want to worry the students, so he concealed it well, so no one would be able to see the flaw.

Walking to the counter, the person standing inside was still the old boss, his appearance hadn't changed at all, he was still a white-haired and brown-skinned young man in his early twenties, not even a trace of the passage of time in his sharp gray pupils.

But Kakashi is no longer the boy who was in Anbu.

Feeling nostalgia and kindness for a long time, Kakashi recalled the meeting many years ago, and smiled at the owner at the counter: "A fried saury, a bowl of rice, please."

The white-haired boss glanced at him, nodded, made a note, and turned his gaze to Haruno Sakura.

The pink-haired woman browsed the signboard for a while and said, "Then please give me a cherry blossom puff, sorry for the trouble."

After ordering, the two found an empty table and sat down. A young waiter came over and poured them a cup of hot tea.

Kakashi held the warm teacup with both hands, and asked with a smile:

"Are you only going to have one dessert, Sakura? Today is the teacher's treat, so don't worry about your wallet."

Sakura sighed: "I didn't think about the teacher's wallet. I'm trying to lose weight recently, so I don't eat dinner at noon."

Kakashi smiled, noncommittal.

He knew that at this time, he must not ask like Naruto, "Then why do you want to eat dessert, Sakura-chan?" Middle-aged and elderly men like him cannot withstand the iron fist sanctions directly inherited from the fifth generation like young boys.

Skimming this topic very naturally, Kakashi and Sakura talked about work together.

Sakura holds a position in the hospital that is neither high nor low. She has a good personality and has two Hokage teachers. She is very popular, so she has a clear view of the hospital's ups and downs.As the current Hokage, Kakashi is very aware of the division of power and the specific situation in Konoha Village, and asked some news that only the medical ninjas in the hospital know, and gave some suggestions and encouragement for the difficulties she encountered in her work. , when I stopped talking, it happened to be serving time.

"Here is your pan-fried saury, sakura puffs and rice, please take it easy."

The beautiful girl with black hair and twin ponytails brought their meals on a tray, and then left abruptly.

Kakashi and Sakura stopped talking and focused on their respective dishes.

Four silver-gray saury were neatly arranged on a white porcelain plate, both sides were fried to a golden brown, sprinkled with yellow shredded ginger, bright green minced celery and small pieces of bright red pepper.The most simple home-cooked cuisine, but because of the freshness of the ingredients and the skillful hand of the chef, it has an incomparable allure.

Even this dish looks the same.

Kakashi sighed, picked up the chopsticks, gently tore off the meat from the belly of one of the saury, and put it in his mouth.

The seafood taste that he has always liked swept from the tip of his tongue, like a vast ocean wave rushing towards him, dragging him into an endless ocean of aftertaste.The marinated fresh fish is salty and delicious, and the shredded ginger sprinkled during the frying process can effectively remove the fishy smell of the saury itself, allowing the umami taste in the salt to evaporate better.

Chewing lightly, the unique aroma of cooking wine radiates between the lips and teeth. The fragrance of celery powder and the sweet taste of pepper are intertwined, turning the soft and slightly burnt saury into a dish worth remembering. A work of art in general dishes.

Hatake Kakashi confirmed the familiar taste in his memory, reached out for the bowl of white rice, and ate it with saury.

Rice with pan-fried saury is another feeling.The marinated fish is really a perfect match with light white rice.They exaggerate the flavors of each other. The umami of the saury is dyed with the light rice aroma of the rice, and the tasteless rice neutralizes the salty taste of the saury, making the taste of both mild and palatable, which makes people unable to resist. Want to eat again.

By the time he realized it, he had unknowingly finished eating four saury and a bowl of rice.

Kakashi put down the empty bowl and chopsticks.

The cherry on the opposite side is still tasting slowly.The pale pink puffs, which are similar in color to her hair, are tender and girlish, with a small cross-shaped slit on it, and pure white cream like a flower emerges, which is very beautiful.

Seeing Kakashi finished eating, Sakura smiled while holding the puff in her hand, and pushed the plate in front of him:

"Mr. Kakashi, do you want to have one too? Not only does it look beautiful, but it also tastes good, and it's not very sweet."

Kakashi couldn't bear to disappoint his female disciple's kindness, so he took a small puff and put it in his mouth.

The feeling that was too sweet for him instantly exploded on the tip of his tongue, and the fluffy and light cream filled his mouth.

Kakashi tasted it slowly while lowering his eyes in a daze.There was hot tea at hand, but he somehow didn't want to use hot water to dilute the sweetness that he didn't like.

If it was that person, he would definitely like it.

Because the desserts in this shop are really delicious.

Kakashi thought.

He recalled an experience from long ago.If Obito's mask hadn't been shattered during the Fourth World War, it would have been nothing more than an unremarkable, even bleak, trifle not worth remembering.But because of the old people who had never met face to face, this story has the value worth remembering.

A long time ago, after Obito and Rin died, he entered Anbu.

In addition to performing tasks, the most important thing every day is to visit the graves of the two companions.

Back to Konoha after performing the mission that day, Kakashi wanted to visit the graves of Obito and Lin, but found that the store that sold the sweets that Obito always liked to eat was closed.

Weary, he was wandering the streets in the afternoon, and found this shop by accident. He was attracted by the "Today's Special Dessert: Red Bean Milk Cake" marked on the sign at the entrance, and went in and ordered a pan-fried saury grass to satisfy his hunger. , packed a red bean milk cake and left, going to see my companion who died young.

Just as he was about to walk out of the store, a black-haired man in a red cloud robe with a black background pushed open the door of the store, passed him by, and walked into the store.

At that time, Akatsuki hadn't been famous in the Five Great Nations, and Kakashi couldn't recognize what the single-hole orange swirl mask on the human face represented.He just listened indifferently to the ninja who came and the ninja in the same attire beside him talking and laughing in weird tones, staggered away from them, opened the door and walked out. The last vague memory was that the person walked to the counter and asked for the same red bean milk cake.

The sweets he put in front of the tombstone later did not know where they went.

The flowers placed in the water bottle were scattered all over the ground, decayed and lying on the ground dying, just like Kakashi's heart at that time.

After a long time, Kakashi recalled the afternoon when he passed by by chance, and he was able to bend his eyes and smile again.

Every minute and every second that that person left in his memory is an incomparable treasure.

Such erroneous fate is also the guidance of fate.

He thought of his old friend's immature and bright smile when he was innocent, and the helpless smile when he left.

That is his own, eternal hero's memory——

The author has something to say:

I have always wanted to write something for Mr. Kakashi, and today I finally wrote four saury (laughs)

I am very sorry for Brother Ying. I originally wanted to write a single chapter for her, but later I found out that it was not the time.

One more today.
