Great writers and philosophers

"Hey, it's this structure, and it's the first time I've seen it too. Uchiha-kun, come here, come here, let's go see the nursing home~"

I haven't seen you so energetic when running laps...

Uchiha Itachi smiled and followed quickly.

Qiye Ying looked very excited, looked left and right, and finally chose a room she was most satisfied with without knowing what criteria to use.

"Uchiha-kun, I will reserve this room for you in my nursing home after you come to my nursing home! The light here is super good!"

ah?Wasn't it a joke before? ? ?

Uchiha Itachi was startled.

Hotaru Qiye let out a chuckle and fell down on the white sheet, her skin almost blending with the sheet, "Hahahaha I'm just joking~ How could Uchiha-kun be so pitiful that he wants to come to a nursing home... Well, but I still hope you I can come here once in a while, because I must be lonely if I am alone, if I can't talk to you, I will be dying of loneliness because of loneliness before I grow old..."

Uchiha Itachi sometimes really wants to ask Nanaya Hotaru some questions very seriously, such as——

"You really don't think there's anything wrong with saying that???"

He can stay with her forever!

However, as expected of Uchiha Itachi, who grew up with the name of a genius since he was a child, today he is still calm and reliable, holding back what he shouldn't say in his stomach!

On the other side, the girl who didn't know it was still turning over on the bed without caring about her image at all, still muttering words.

"However, what will Uchiha-kun look like when he is old? What if he is excluded because he is too good when everyone votes for the 'coolest grandpa'? Then we have to build a good relationship with the old ladies in advance... Well, the prize If so, it will be a hundred plates of three-color meatballs! I am the dean, and I can use the public to help my own interests!"

Wait, wait, wait... The more you say it, the more outrageous it is...

Uchiha Itachi felt helpless, but he couldn't stop the smile on his face, so he sat on the side of the bed with a smile in his mouth, blocking the girl who almost rolled out of bed.

He really wanted to touch the girl's messy hair, but in the end he just put his hands on his knees decently.

This room is really well lit, the sun shines in through the window, greedily hiding in the girl's eyes.

Uchiha Itachi saw his own reflection in Nanaya Hotaru's eyes.

He really likes himself in Qiyeying's eyes.

"Uchiha-kun."

Both of them were distracted.

Uchiha Itachi was stunned before asking: "What's wrong?"

"When you get old, our hair color will be the same!"

As if she had discovered some great secret, Qiye Ying grabbed his sleeve and shook it in surprise.

How could her mood change so quickly? Before he could react to the last sentence, she immediately became depressed after the next sentence.

"Oh...but I'm wrinkled when I'm old, I must be ugly, I don't want to be old..."

He felt that her worry was meaningless, and there was no need to worry at all, after all, they were the same age, but she was more innocent than Sasuke... Even if she was old, she must be as cute as a child.

"No, Qiye-san looks good even when she's old."

"……real?"

"Really, absolutely."

"Then you have to vote for me when you vote for 'Most Beautiful Granny'!"

Uchiha Itachi finally couldn't help laughing out loud, took off his fingers from his sleeves and hid them in his palms, he tried to be serious, "Well, I will definitely vote for you, no matter what the selection event is, I All the tickets are for Qiye-san."

After Uchiha Itachi joined Anbu, the time he could freely control became less and less.

His explanation for getting busy was "wanting to protect Konoha in the dark".

Qiye Ying half-understood - of course, because he deliberately ambiguous.

She didn't understand, but she still asked worriedly with the same metaphor: "Then what if you fall down because you can't see the road?"

His blankness must have been obvious at that moment, because the girl watching him showed a very, very worried expression.

That kind of concern was too real and passionate, and he couldn't find the right words to cover it up for a while.

But Qiye Ying did not ask, she was always very sensitive to the pain of others, so she would never want to hurt others, so she had to hurt herself.

"...is there anything I can do?"

When the girl asked this question, Uchiha Itachi felt that Nanaya Hotaru was about to cry.

Uchiha Itachi even saw the blades of grass in her palm being crushed.

How pitiful, when she rationally told her that there was nothing she could do, but she still wanted to help him emotionally.

Asking a question that people can only give a negative answer, is it for the pain of being denied?

Do you want to punish yourself with that pain?

But no need.

Really useless.

"Qiye-san just needs to be happy and live with his own ideas. As I said, it is a very happy thing to see others pursue their dreams and keep moving in the direction of their dreams. If that person is Qiye-san's words are even better. Rather, this is the happiness that only Qiye-san can give me. So, just continue to live in your own way."

Uchiha Itachi is rare to be honest, and I hope Hotaru Nanaya can understand.

In Uchiha Itachi's memory, that conversation was the first and only time in so many years, and it ended with Nanaya Yingying's incoherent speech.

In the future, after a long, long time, he will know that it is very dangerous to pretend to understand just to please a girl, even if it is to please a very favorite girl.

But he didn't know that at that time, so when Qiyueying held his arm nervously, staring at him with clear and bright eyes without blinking, as if waiting for his approval, when she said that she was right... ...and he really nodded.

He saw that Qiye Ying seemed to be completely relaxed, and smiled innocently and happily, with a charming look of expectation in his eyes, so he also put those incoherent words behind him, and regarded it as another girl. Feeling about to confide, he laughed along with her without any distractions.

12,

Itachi Uchiha never thought that Hotaru would leave Konoha.

But after Qiyeying said it, no matter what the first reaction was, all reason told him that this was a very wise decision.

Indeed, Qiye Yingying would live happier if it was in a quiet and peaceful village.

Uchiha Itachi thought of the heavier and heavier burden on himself, and became more and more sure of this decision.

It just seems that I have been silent for too long, if the girl misunderstands that he disagrees, I will be in trouble...

"Oh right, right, I forgot to add, just now..."

"I know," he interrupted Qiyeying uncontrollably, "that's not your original poem, I know."

The girl covering her face hesitantly put down her hand nervously, he quickly smiled and met Qiyeying's puzzled gaze.

The sensitivity of the other party is sometimes a troublesome thing.

Uchiha Itachi turned his mind quickly, and finally found a reasonable question that could perfectly explain the words and deeds just now when the silence time was about to reach the limit.

"Nanayo-san, if I, as a ninja, do too many things that ordinary people think shouldn't be done, will you deny me?"

Yes, it is reasonable for him to ask this question at this time.

Uchiha Itachi calmly pulled away from his emotions, evaluated and examined objectively, until Nanaya Hotaru's high-pitched voice exploded in his ears.

"How?! If I deny you, then all my actions will be meaningless! I will never deny you! You are not allowed to think of me like that!"

The invisible fragments formed by the explosion near the ear drilled into the body, stuck in many vulnerable places, and there seemed to be thorns in the throat.

Itachi Uchiha deepened his smile, and comforted the nervous and angry Hotaru with a reassuring look.

Itachi Uchiha breathed a sigh of relief when Hotaru Nana finally showed her smile again and excitedly described what she would do after leaving Konoha.

so close.

Almost asked out.

Really close.

……

……

……

After sending Nanaya Hotaru back to a place where there will soon be no more Nanaye Hotaru, Uchiha Itachi walked on the dark and silent street, asking the air around him the questions in his heart.

"Those are not your original words, then, when you said those words to me, did you really think so?"

After listening to the air, he didn't know the answer, he was very distressed, he was so entangled that he wrinkled up, blowing up a gentle wind after another, winding around his calm face, and the broken hair around his ears scratched his ears a little itchy.

All winds wind around his soul.

The wind died down quickly.

Uchiha Itachi finally felt that it didn't matter, so he walked slowly and firmly to where he should go.

13,

At dusk, I saw my friends and my younger brother hugging each other and arguing about myself. Such a time is really blissful.

Itachi Uchiha walked slowly behind the two of them, bypassing the woods, bypassing the secret base, and stopped in front of a small hill.

The hill was covered with lush rushes, but the top was bare, and there was a stone, half sunken in the earth, which had once been clean and shimmered in the sun with an old ocher gleam. .

He remembered that Qiyeying suddenly pointed to the hillside once, saying that she liked it very much, it was super cute.

When he looked over, he couldn't see anything cute about it, it was just a small hillside that can be seen everywhere. The only thing he remembered was that one day, she was sitting on the rock at the top of the hill, with her calf bent and her chin resting on it. On the knees, the tail of the hair is slightly curled, lingering on the arms and chest.

He pushed aside the waist-high rushes and walked up, and she sat at the finish line and watched him, kept watching, and when he finally walked in front of her, she suddenly smiled.

Then he stood up without any warning, jumped down and hugged him, and when he was still in shock and worried about her twisting his feet, he said loudly: "Uchiha-kun is the most beautiful existence in the world!"

If you praise someone, you really just open your mouth...

He originally wanted to remind her not to be so reckless in the future, but he couldn't restrain his happiness at all. Who would laugh and preach?I had no choice but to stop talking.

"...Brother, brother!"

"Uh, huh? What's the matter? Sasuke."

Uchiha Itachi came back to his senses, and found that his friend and his younger brother had already walked a long distance. At this moment, his younger brother ran over, stood in front of him, looked at him with his hands behind his back, pouted and said: " Really, I have called you many times, brother, when did you have the bad habit of distracting your mind, you always do this recently! You were not like this before, what do you do when you are fighting?"

Makes sense.

Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but tapped his younger brother's forehead with his fingertips, and said with a slight smile, "Sorry, I was thinking about something just now, let's go home."

The way the younger brother stares at him while covering his forehead is so cute, no wonder Nana Ye-san always likes to tease Sasuke.

Uchiha Itachi was walking in the sunset, and finally looked back at the hillside for the last time when he was about to turn a corner.

At that time, Qiye Ying looked at him, and he focused on pushing aside the lush grass unconsciously. At that time, what was she thinking?

He will never know.

Also lived away.

Also died.

Uchiha Itachi subconsciously exerted force on the hand pinching Shimura Danzo's neck to prevent the other party from continuing to yell at Polaris.

He literally nearly killed him.

so close.

The boy with blood-like eyes tried hard to control his strength, one word was like a hole in the ice.

"Don't make irresponsible remarks about her."

14,

Uchiha Itachi chose to protect Konoha in the dark when he was ten years old, and Hotaru Nanaye chose to put a star in the dark when he was ten years old.

On the day of Uchiha Itachi's birthday, the stars shine brightly in the darkness, and his future is bright.

He possessed the light, but lost everything other than the light, including the light itself.
