In the scorching summer, Meizhi bought a lot of popsicles and put them in the refrigerator. She still remembered asking Naruto to come over to her after class to cool off yesterday, but when it was almost dark, the blond boy was nowhere to be seen.

Sasuke has finished washing the dishes and walked out of the kitchen. He doesn't stay in Meizhi's house every day. Except during the day, he insists on going back to sleep at night, even though the house is empty and he is the only one left. This is his last insistence up.

Meizhi was watching from the door, she turned around just in time to meet Sasuke coming out, seeing that he was about to leave, Meizhi stopped him: "Wait a minute."

Sasuke found out who she was waiting for just now, and the guy who came the most frequently in the past few days was Naruto.He thought that Meizhi had discovered something, so he pursed his lips stubbornly, stood there stiffly with lowered eyebrows and eyes, waiting for her to speak.

Because it is summer, Meizhi is very afraid of the heat. At home, she only wears a beige cotton suspender skirt that reaches above the knee. Even if it is loose, it still shows the curves that a girl should have at this age. A wooden hairpin was held behind her head, and some broken hair fell on the back of her slender neck. She pulled Sasuke to the refrigerator, squinted her eyes to feel the coolness of the frozen layer, opened a section, and asked him to choose one before going back.

"The weather is too hot recently," she put a cube of ice into her mouth, making a crisp sound when it collided with her teeth, her voice was vague, "It's hot on the road, I bought a lot of flavors... Sasuke chose one Let's go."

Seeing her squinting happy expression, Sasuke bent down and took out one: "The popsicle is too sweet."

Unlike Itachi, he doesn't like sweets.

Even so, he accepted the kindness, unpacked the popsicle, and began to eat the popsicle.

It's just that the expression is not very good.

And when he took his second bite, Meizhi suddenly asked: "Did Naruto go to class today, Sasuke?"

His teeth ached from the cold, the black-haired boy paused and bit down hard, and answered her expressionlessly, "Yes, it's done."

Mei Zhi corrected her standing posture, and Sasuke and Naruto were in the same class, so it would be much easier for her to obtain Naruto's information.

"Did he get scolded by the teacher again today?" Meizhi didn't notice that Sasuke put down the popsicle, and she was already showing displeasure about her asking too much about Naruto. She looked out of the yard again, "Called him yesterday. Come here to eat popsicles, have you forgotten..."

Sasuke didn't say a word, his dark pupils stared at the reflection on the floor, and after hearing Meizhi's words "I'll go and see him", he strode out, clutching the popsicle tightly.

"Hey, Sasuke...where are you going?"

Uchiha Sasuke walked quickly back to his home without turning his head. He closed the door forcefully and did not turn on the light. He leaned against the door in the hot night and let the popsicle in his hand melt away. The sweet water was sticky on his palm. , fell to the ground, and could no longer attract his attention.

He waited for a long time, the sweat on his forehead slipped down the brow bone, and finally fell into his eyes, the burning pain woke Sasuke awake.

Meizhi didn't come to him——

He didn't even hear Meizhi call his name, obviously before... Even if she drove her away, she would put food in front of her door, tolerate his temper, and give everything she could without asking for anything in return.

Obviously at the beginning, she only cared about her own.

Everything has changed now, that Naruto guy...

Diverting Meizhi's attention, even now, two of the three sentences he said are about Naruto's situation, and he is not Naruto's follower!What does the bullying at the end of the crane have to do with him!

He slammed his fist on the door angrily, turned on the light angrily, and started to clean up and melt the popsicles. He didn't take a bath anymore, and ran back to find Meizhi anxiously.

In her mind, she was wondering if she didn't notice his anger at all, and really ran to find Naruto.

When he ran over with sweat on his face, Meizhi was sitting in the corridor dangling his legs and eating popsicles, and seeing the black-haired boy come back, he smiled and waved to him: "Shall we go for a walk together?"

Sasuke couldn't seem to find a reason to refuse. He originally wanted to talk about the tail of the crane, but finally swallowed it, and replaced it with a simple answer: "Yeah."

Like Uchiha Itachi, he became less talkative. Obviously before, he followed Uchiha Itachi like a little tail and talked non-stop, but except for that incident, it is understandable that he became silent.

It's not a good thing for a seven-year-old to think too much. Humans live in groups. He will be bored one day if he is bored alone. Meizhi doesn't think she can help. She doesn't know ninjutsu, even if Even if he wanted to chat with Sasuke about the class, he couldn't start.

If he has friends, maybe he will be in a better state than he is now.

Said it was a walk, and Meizhi went around to Naruto's residence, Sasuke naturally discovered this too, but when he faced Mizhi's moist and clear eyes, he couldn't say anything harsh.

Compared with others, his perverseness and temper have been restrained a little bit. After he lost everything, Meizhi is a faint light that appeared when he fell into darkness, just like a crescent moon that appeared at night , not too dazzling and hot, the moonlight sprinkled on his body and on the ground, illuminating the road in front of him.

But the moon does not belong to him alone, her light spreads everywhere it can shine, even the guy at the end of the crane that he hates, shouting to be Hokage, is also illuminated, that is something he can't stop As a result, but he will not pretend to be generous and look at Meizhi being kind to Naruto, without doing anything.

He was not angry, he didn't want to, it was clear that Meizhi and he were the only ones left in the Uchiha family, the blood flowing on their bodies was blood that no one else could penetrate, their hair was the same color, not like Naruto Such insolent gold; their pupils are equally black, with Uchiha's special blood lineage... These appearances are enough to prove that the two of them should be in a relationship that needs mutual support, and no one else is needed to join in.

He stood at the door of Naruto's house and didn't intend to go in. Meizhi rubbed the top of his hair. She also admitted that what she did was not good, but she was really worried that Naruto was alone at home, but after she mentioned Naruto With such a strong reaction from Sasuke, she worried that if she came out alone to find Naruto, Sasuke would think too much.

"After all, you are classmates." Meizhi had never been to school before, and was quite envious of the life of studying and playing together in class. She took Sasuke's sleeve and gently pulled it in, persuading him in a low voice, "I haven't gone yet. Naruto's house is a guest, come in and have a look..."

Sasuke let her move: "I won't go in."

Meizhi couldn't force her, so she let go of her hand: "Then I'll go in and have a look, and I'll come out in a while."

The hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist after hearing her words, he gave a cold face and gave a blunt hum, watching Meizhi knock on the door.

After knocking for a while, there was a sound from inside.

Naruto yawned and opened the door, and asked before he woke up, "Who is it?"

When he rubbed his eyes and opened the door to see Meizhi, his sky blue eyes lit up: "Sister Meizhi!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the black-haired boy standing not far away from the corner of his eye. He pursed his lips tightly and stared at him with dark eyes and warning.

Wanting to let Meizhi come in and sit down, he got stuck in his throat. Naruto coughed with his eyes wide open. He unnaturally avoided Meizhi's movement of wanting to pat his back for him, and coughed while holding the door After a while, after stopping, because the avoiding movement was too obvious, he scratched his cheek in guilt and annoyance, then raised his head and grinned dryly at Meizhi: "...I, I'm fine! I suddenly choked. It's here...look at me, I'm not alive and kicking right now!"

Meizhi was amused by his actions, and greeted him to have dinner at home tomorrow.

Naruto's eyes flicked across Sasuke, scratching the back of his head and rejecting her with low confidence: "I'm not very used to going to other people's houses for dinner."

Meizhi noticed that he was starting to be estranged, she glanced back at Sasuke, said goodbye to Naruto, turned and left.

On the way, Sasuke didn't talk much, although he didn't like to talk much on weekdays, but today was very different.

Meizhi suddenly became quiet, she didn't ask or say anything, which made Sasuke a little uneasy.He began to look at her frequently, pursing his lips as if trying to wait for her to speak.

As long as she opened her mouth, he could continue with the words, and she would not tell him in advance that she was here to find Naruto, and he would not be angry with her, as long as she spoke instead of being strangely silent like now.

But Meizhi didn't seem to intend to speak.

She returned to her door and waved goodbye to him.

Sasuke Uchiha stood in front of the door, and he seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, staring at her with dark eyes: "Are you angry? Why are you angry? Because of the tail of the crane?"

He asked three questions in a row, and Meizhi looked at his face, which was more angry than her own, and stretched out her hand to put her palm on his forehead.

Sasuke was taken aback by the photo, Meizhi's face was already very close to him, he could feel a small part of Meizhi's breath hitting his face, with a little warmth, but it seemed to be warmer than a summer night It was so hot that the base of his ear burned up.

Taking a step back unnaturally, Sasuke wanted to wave her hand away, but he stopped abruptly remembering that she was an ordinary person. He waved lightly and did not knock off Mei Zhi's hand, and said in a muffled voice: " what are you doing?"

"Sasuke..." Meizhi suddenly called his name, and the boy frowned impatiently, looking at her and waiting for the next sentence.

Meizhi let go of her hand: "Isn't it you who are angry? Why are you angry?"

Sasuke wanted to lean over and shout into her ear: Don't you see this? !

But with an expression of unwillingness to explain why, he froze there and turned his face away to look away, but didn't speak.

"Is it because of Naruto?"

Sasuke snorted through his nose.

As if he had opened the gate, he said in a cold voice with a little grievance: "Why do you care about him? A crane tail..."

Having said this, he gritted his teeth again, and Meizhi looked at the moon behind him, and sighed with some empty eyes: "Because he looks like a person."

He hadn't been born when Obito died, so naturally he didn't have the memory of such a person.

She sat in the corridor, blowing the evening breeze: "My brother... also said that he wanted to be Hokage, and he was also a crane tail, and when he laughed... he was just like Naruto."

Just as Sasuke was about to ask her brother where he was, his mind was spinning rapidly, but he stopped immediately.

"So," Meizhi turned her head and smiled softly at him, with memories in her eyes, "I also imagined that I could use my ability to protect him, and I hope...his smile can be kept forever, just like the sun, Never fall into darkness."

But her ability is limited, and there are not many things she can give.

Sasuke didn't speak, just walked over and sat with her in the corridor watching the moon for a long time.

The next day, when Sasuke came back, there was a blond boy behind him, his laughter could be heard from a long distance away, Meizhi poked his head out, Sasuke saw that his expression was not very good, he turned his head and scolded Naruto: " Come wash your hands and don't touch that thing—"

This is the first time they have eaten at the same table, and Naruto's brows are stretched. From time to time, he talks about some unnutritious topics with Sasuke, and Sasuke will reply angrily when he is annoyed. Even Sasuke became infectiously lively.

Meizhi was quite relieved. She experienced the time of raising a child. To be honest, it is really not easy. Fortunately, Naruto and Sasuke are simple-minded, and they seem to be able to get along well with a little guidance.

The summer festival started. When Kakashi took her to pick out yukatas, she picked out two for Naruto and Sasuke. Kakashi raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything.

But at night, the set that Kakashi bought for her was lost, and Meizhi saw another set of yukata in the room, and there was a note on it, which was to bring Dirt handwriting - wear this suit.
