Poverty Alleviation Princess

Because many well-known ninjas work beside Ji Jun, people actually don't particularly consider the identities of the people around Ji Jun.Anyway, it doesn't matter if a ninja is not a ninja, doesn't it?

Therefore, until Yuan said it, Mana didn't know that the two Nara-samas were no longer ninjas.

But... how is this possible?

"Long before coming to Huiye City, they were merchants."

It's not a ninja who wears the skin of a businessman to perform tasks, but a serious businessman—at most, the kind that has a little more connection with ninjas.

Thinking about it now, that was all eight or nine years ago... It was obviously a long time ago, but in retrospect, it always feels like a recent thing.

Ah Yuan still remembers the two brothers at that time.

Even though they said sales words with flattering expressions on their faces, their eyes were always wary.

He is not paying attention to the surroundings all the time, like a vigilant beast, always on guard against possible dangers.Even in a place that is theoretically safe, they are dealing with ordinary customers.

It is completely different from Shengyi who was like the old mother later, and Xianer who was always overworked for a long time and always seemed listless.A Yuan dare not say that working for herself is definitely the best choice, but judging from the changes of these two people, at least it will not be a wrong choice.

As for what the ninjas are very concerned about, not being a ninja is "betrayal" and "rebellion"... She never cared about it, and even always encouraged ninjas to get in touch with more industries.

Because of their professional characteristics, ninjas possess information and abilities that many ordinary people do not possess.In terms of employment choices, they are far more than ordinary people.Whether they are teachers, doctors, craftsmen, or even responsible for earthquake relief, rescue of people and flood control, they all have more advantages.

"But, but..."

Mana still finds it incredible.

"There's nothing wrong with it." A Yuan interrupted the girl's incoherent speech, she looked at the girl who was longing but flinching in front of her, her eyes were calm and firm. "I have always felt that ninjas have so many talents, and it would be a waste to limit themselves to the ninja industry."

She pointed to the busy street downstairs.

"The world is so big, there are countless possibilities waiting for you, don't limit yourself to this small place in front of you early."

She didn't advise Mana to do what she wanted, but she just wanted to tell her that even if she was born as a ninja, she didn't just have the choice of "being a ninja" and living as a member of a "certain clan".

As for whether to overcome difficulties and choose another route, to go in a different direction...it is up to her to decide.

Your own life should be decided by yourself.

For a moment, Mana forgot to breathe.

But seeing the implicitly encouraging eyes of the girl in front of her, her heart beat faster than ever.

She could feel the pounding sound in her chest, and she could also feel such a clear voice in her heart for the first time.

She wanted to try it.

Even if it will be very hard, even if there may not be good results.But... it was difficult to live in such a city that gave her a choice, and she didn't want to let this opportunity down.

"I'm back, the people downstairs are quite...huh? Where's Mana?"

When Ah Guang came back with food after difficulty, Ah Yuan was the only one left by the window.

"She said she left beforehand." A Yuan waved her hand, "Let's eat quickly, I heard that the second half of the celebration will be more lively."

"Ah, you mean there is that...float? There are also performances?"

Ah Guang put down the food, tried to recall the gossip he heard from other people, looked at the full food and the empty seat where the girl was sitting just now, and sighed.

"Really, if you are busy, you have to finish eating before you are busy. What can you be so busy that you don't even have time for lunch?"

"Maybe it's a major decision that subverts people's existing cognition."

"what?"

Because the surrounding environment was too noisy, Ah Guang couldn't hear Ah Yuan's words clearly.Seeing her confused face, A Yuan didn't repeat it, but just picked up the one he was most interested in.

"Eat quickly, it would be bad to miss the afternoon show."

Ah Guang: "Oh."

Uchiha Madara is packing his things.

Although he seems to have nothing to do with the word "doing miscellaneous things", in fact, the male ninjas of this era are not bad at hands-on ability.

After all, you can only take care of yourself when you are in the wilderness. If there are many times, no matter how stupid people are, they can learn it.

But this time, looking at the countless documents and things related to ninjas and families in the room, Uchiha Madara rarely felt that he couldn't do anything.

Obviously, he has been a ninja for most of his life, dealing with these things.But when he saw them a few years later, he had a faint feeling as if he had passed away.He looked at them like a world away.

It is clearly in front of you, but it seems to be far away in the sky.

It's like the wilderness that I used to sneak into when I was a child.

Under the body is thick green grass with some fresh breath, and above is the night sky full of stars. The long Milky Way divides the sky into two halves, and the end cannot be seen.

Everything was so peaceful, so calm that it was hard to believe that a few kilometers away was a battlefield where countless lives were buried.

The battlefield full of blood and death, and the wilderness with only grass and stars are like these two completely different worlds.Realizing this, Uchiha Madara suddenly discovered.

It turns out that the war has been gone for so long.

And I, like many others, have long been used to such a world without war.

It's not simply 'awareness', but changes have already taken place before one's own awareness.By the time I realize it, even the little things in my life have become what they are now.

It really makes them think about war again, and think about things that they used to take for granted and existed in their lives like breathing, but it has become something that requires deliberate energy and change of mind to think about.

"Yo, you were finally abandoned by Ji Jun?"

Nara Katsuichi with dark circles leaned against the door and looked at the man in the room.

With that look, it was as if he had finally seen the Chief Ouchi who had finally seen the concubine Yao fall out of favor.

There are three points of relief, three points of sarcasm and four points of joy in the eyes.

Nara Katsuichi seldom has yin and yang eccentricity—but today he found that yin and yang ambiguity is quite relieved, no wonder Xianji would say a few words like this from time to time.

He himself has nothing against the famous Uchiha Madara, but simply can't understand that this man follows Ji Jun like a rice cake all day long.

Yes, he is the hero who brought Ji Jun back.

But as a ninja, it is too much for him to ignore the behavior of sticking to Ji Jun.

What does this make others think?

It's not a big problem to admire Ji Jun, but it's his fault to cause Ji Jun trouble.

"A Yuan just went shopping first." Uchiha Madara stuffed the scroll in his hand back into the box, and replied calmly as if he didn't hear Nara Katsuichi's ridicule.

After going through so much together, he wouldn't worry about gains and losses because of such a small matter.

What's more, she left him a note before leaving.

— that's really cool.

No, is this guy bold enough to call Ji Jun by his name?

It was clearly here to vent, but for some reason Nara Katsuichi, who was getting more and more angry, rolled his eyes.

If Ji Jun didn't care about him...

He took two deep breaths.

If it's not that I can't beat him...

Then I will definitely not let him go like this.

But that's only if, now Nara Katsuichi can only snort coldly, and throw the box in his hand.

"Ji Jun picked it for you."

Really, Uchiha is smoking from the ancestral grave.It's fine if you can be in love with Ji Jun, and I will trouble Ji Jun to choose clothes for him.Besides, he really couldn't find a second reason to explain it.

"I see." Uchiha Madara accepted the box, with a gentler expression on his face, he looked at the man at the door, and thanked him.

Nara Katsuichi's complexion did not change for the better.

...He didn't want to hear this thank you at all.

Doesn't this make him look more like an outsider?

It's just that no matter how angry he is, there's nothing he can do.

After all, this is Ji Jun's choice.

He can think of countless ways to trip Uchiha Madara, and he can even combine many forces to put pressure on him.Ten thousand kinds of pressure, there is always one that makes him let go.

It's just that when he thinks that Ji Jun will be unhappy, he can't do anything.

After all, that was Ji Jun.

Hee-jun who chooses to save the world even if he suffers.Who could bear to make her sad like this?

So in the end, Nara Katsuichi didn't say anything.Just like when I came, I left quietly.

By the time Uchiha Madara changed his clothes and came to the street, the celebration had already reached the second half.

All kinds of activities have already started, and he also saw performances by psychic beasts.

Looking at the tacit cooperation, it is obvious that this is not the first time that a ninja and a psychic beast have cooperated. He doesn't know whether he is more happy or more complicated.

The psychic beast is a good helper for the ninja on the battlefield. If two ninjas of equal strength fight, the presence or absence of the psychic beast is often the key to the outcome.

——But it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

He walked slowly along the street.In addition to the tourists, there are also staff who are doing maintenance and preparations for the second half of the celebration.

Some booths were removed - they were only allowed half-time.Some booths have to be moved to make room for events.

There are still some places that need to be refurbished.

The staff who come and go are very busy, but it can be seen from the smiles on their faces that they actually enjoy the job.Playing is certainly a kind of joy, but participating is not necessarily a chore.

The sense of accomplishment is sometimes deeper than the joy of having fun.

"Madara! You're back!"

At this moment, Uchiha Madara suddenly heard a familiar voice. The loud voice and the undisguised enthusiasm in it made him pretend not to hear it.

Uchiha Madara followed the voice and saw the long-haired man squatting next to the lottery booth.

And a bucket of empty lottery tickets beside him.

Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes.

But the man continued to say as if he didn't notice Uchiha Madara's strange indifference: "Mara, long time no see, you look really good today, did you choose it yourself? It suits you so much!"

Uchiha Madara: "..."

I don't really want to hear your compliments.
