[Comprehensive] living to death

We ate lunch at home, and my father came back.Everyone sat around the dining table, and my elder sister helped to serve the dishes prepared by my mother, and then ordered Sasuke to serve the rice. Sometimes I joked with my father that he was still as motionless as a mountain. Adults dine.It's not right to make my father run so angry, it's not to be angry, and I grabbed the bowl at last, and majestically told my sister to sit down quickly.

But there was a distinct smile on the corner of the usually strict father's mouth, and even his eyes were gratified.

Sasuke thought, this is something only an older sister can do.

When my father was around, everyone was generally silent during meals.But with my sister around, it's different.In the past, she would tell the interesting stories of the day at the dinner table, or the gossip she heard from nowhere, but now she talks about what she has seen and heard from around.There are four people at a table, mainly she is talking, and sometimes she will be reprimanded by her father if she laughs too much, she is not depressed, she nods with a smile, and continues to chat.Sasuke observed his parents' expressions calmly, and then looked at his sister's beaming face, and suddenly made a new discovery: in this family, his sister seemed to be the only lively and cheerful optimist, who was so talkative and laughing that he almost chattered.The parents and Itachi, as well as himself, all prefer restraint and restraint.

It's not against the peace to say that it's Naruto's older sister... No, what are you thinking, Naruto is much noisier than his older sister!

"It would be great if Itachi was here." The elder sister temporarily ended a long series of words, and started to poke the grilled fish in a very bored way, "Although he is also busy at this age... Dad, when will Little Itachi come back? ?”

"It's taboo to inquire about the itinerary of the ninja on the mission. You really forgot everything you've learned before." The father glared at his sister.

"Oh, then I ask to go through the back door, I want to be a related account. Please, the great Konoha Police Force Headquarters, please be sure to inform your poor daughter when her brother will return."

"Oil cavity slippery!"

Even so, but looking at his father's stretched eyebrows, he knew that he was very useful.With the expansion of the village in recent years, the members of the police force have also undergone great adjustments.The father's position remains the same, but his title has changed, which is essentially equivalent to an important promotion.Sasuke knew that his father was very proud of this matter, and he was surprised that his sister could poke his father's itchy so lightly and make him happy.

The father also really answered the sister's question. "Itachi was supposed to come back these two days. But there might be something wrong, and the time was delayed. However, Hokage received a report saying that nothing happened. Don't worry." At the end, the father added: "Itachi is stronger than you were back then."

"Of course. Didn't you say when you were young that you wanted Itachi to take care of my ineffective 'sister' as an actual 'brother'?" My sister didn't care, "I think little Sasuke is also very successful, is it better than that?" I'm much stronger."

The comforting meaning of this statement is too obvious - at least Sasuke thinks so.He put down his rice bowl and glanced at his sister with displeasure. "Sister, you don't need to comfort me." He said bluntly, "I know that I am not as good as my brother now."

"Huh? I didn't compare you to Itachi. You're all very nice."

No, there is always a difference.Sasuke thought secretly.

There should always be a distinction.

"Sasuke, don't be too sensitive. Your sister didn't mean that," said the mother, "and neither did your father or me."

But the father said, "No, I don't think so. It's good for boys to be competitive."

Sasuke remained silent.The restaurant fell silent again.In fact, this kind of dull silence is the family atmosphere Sasuke is familiar with. The briskness and liveliness created by his sister just now is more like a childhood dream.

"Mingyue, how did you come back this time? Didn't the village notice you? Also, how did you manage those flowers that suddenly appeared?" Father changed the subject.

"It's a power that belongs to other places. It's different from the ninja's chakra. It's a bit like the space magic in the novel."

"Why, can't you think of a way for ninjas to learn it too? This is a very useful ability."

"Well, there is no way, it sounds like letting ordinary people learn to use Chakra."

"Really? It's a pity." The father smacked his mouth, and it sounded very regretful. "If the child Sasuke can have such power, I have nothing to worry about."

There was something condescending in his father's words, which aroused Sasuke's discomfort.He clenched his fists, driven by some inexplicable anger and irritability, and was about to speak impulsively against his father.Before he could speak, his mood swings seemed to be conveyed through his facial expressions and body language, as his mother's eyes tightened and his father's quickly turned harsh and oppressive.

His sister held his hand.

"Hahaha, of course, Dad, you can't wait to bring all the good things in the world to Sasuke, so that you may feel a little relieved. However, too much pampering is not conducive to the healthy growth of little Sasuke." She said with a smile Said, "Besides, little Sasuke's growth in the end will definitely exceed your imagination. Let's forget about the matter of growing up."

My sister held his hand tightly.It was a stable temperature, warm but without the slightest burning sensation.

The father's eyes moved to his sister and back to him. "Sasuke?" His tone was still stern, "How about it, ask yourself if you can bear this trust and expectation?"

Sasuke broke away from his sister's hand, quickly shook her back, and then straightened his back even more.He suddenly calmed down.

"Of course, I promise."

The mother breathed out silently, smiled and filled another bowl of rice for the father.At this time, my sister came to his ear and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito: Look, what mom means is, you can eat yours, don't open your mouth.

"Pfft-"

His parents looked over suspiciously, and he quickly stopped laughing, shaking his head and sitting upright, but the hand under the table had to pinch him to stop laughing.The father stared at his sister suspiciously, obviously knowing who the culprit was.

Obviously mother also understood, so she smiled and brought up another matter: "Mingyue, how long do you plan to stay this time?"

"Ah, that's what I was going to say. I plan to live outside the village. I will stay for more than three months, probably until August."

"Sister? Why do you live outside?" Sasuke paused, "Because..."

"Well, the fact of 'resurrecting the dead' is too mysterious, and it will cause trouble." The elder sister's tone was still so light, "Although Hokage knows about this, other people's minds are still very subtle. Illusion can be deceived for a while , but it is impossible to fool them for a long time. It involves too much to explain, so let’s just leave it at that.”

Everyone stopped talking for a while.The mother's expression was obviously depressed, and she only smiled reluctantly, but the father nodded in agreement, saying that it's really good not to make extra troubles.

Sasuke knew what "don't overdo it" meant.Some time ago, I didn't know what happened to the top management. The Fourth Hokage was suspended, and Itachi, as his confidant, was in a delicate situation in an instant.Although Naruto looked carefree, it didn't look like it was a big deal, but Itachi still carefully chose a long-term assignment to avoid some hidden reefs in the village.Father valued this very much, and what he thought about every day was how to pave the way for the matter of "making Itachi a Hokage". Even Sasuke was warned by him every now and then, saying not to cause trouble for Itachi.If possible, Sasuke really wanted to quarrel with his father.

Why is even my sister a "trouble" now?Really boring.

"I'm done." Sasuke stood up, "Then, I'm going out."

It was the father who turned his face down first. "Sasuke! Your sister just came back. As a younger brother, shouldn't you accompany her?" He put down his job heavily, "What can be so important to you?"

The former sentence can still be heard, but the latter sentence is unbearable.Sasuke gritted his teeth patiently, and only stared at the dining table, feeling that even the leftovers were too intrusive, so it would be better to just overturn them.

"Dad, don't be so fierce, you scared me, baby. Young people have young people's business, even if it's okay, people are not allowed to go out to play?" My sister can still joke so lazily.

"Mingyue, shut up."

"Yes, but please let me say one more thing. Sasuke, are you really going out? I also said that if parents and you are free, I want to take you to meet someone."

My sister's smile seemed to be always relaxed, as if no matter what happened, it would not put her under pressure, let alone affect what she wanted to do.Sasuke felt a little envious of this, and then thought it was because he was too weak to be as indifferent as his sister.Come to think of it, isn't it the same with Itachi?His abyss-like elder brother is always calm and reticent, but he acts vigorously and resolutely, and no one can stop him.Is it true that among the three people, is he actually not like his sister and brother?

"Yeah." Sasuke twitched the corner of his mouth and said calmly, "It's nothing important, so let's listen to my sister's arrangement."

Sasuke didn't really understand what his sister meant when he said this.In fact, the only one who really understood it immediately was the mother.

"Ah, could it be that..." Mother was a little surprised and worried, "Is he a boyfriend?"

Sasuke was stunned.At this moment, he subconsciously looked in the direction of his father, and his father was also looking at him.The two men looked at each other in disbelief, and immediately reached a wordless tacit understanding: What is a boyfriend? !

And the older sister, who was always free and easy, smiled shyly. "Oh, how should I say it, should I say 'boyfriend' or 'husband'? Well, I don't mind if I say 'wife'." She held her face and said with a smile, "In short, we will always be together people."

"Where is that man?" Father frowned, then suddenly hesitated again, "It's a man, right?"

Sasuke didn't expect his father who was always serious to ask such a question, so he didn't know what expression to make.He wanted to laugh a little, but when he thought of "my sister has a boyfriend or even a husband", he felt very strange.It suddenly occurred to him that those cards that his sister jokingly wrote, those implicit sentences about love, maybe they were not just handwritten, but... but what?After all, what exactly are "like" and "love"?

The elder sister sat there upright, her appearance impeccable.Sasuke tried to imagine that there was someone else beside his sister, a strange man he didn't know, he would stay with his sister as a matter of course, and then his sister would become...become...

In short, she is no longer the free-spirited older sister who would take him to skip class and go out to play.It's different.Somehow, he remembered last week's confession, and Naruto's awkward and shy look today, and then Sakura's persistent words that followed him, and the ambiguity of other peers he noticed .Those worries and entanglements are all related to the so-called "love".

Like a fish entangled in weeds.

Sasuke suddenly felt a sense of resistance.

He went to see his father again, trying to get some silent support like before, like forming a silent alliance, but his father had already looked at his sister with concern, ignoring his gaze.Sasuke was immediately ashamed of himself for asking for support.He clenched his fists, trying to suppress the irritability in his heart, so as not to be seen by his family.

His sister knew nothing about his mood.As soon as she mentioned "that person", her eyes were shining and she was completely immersed in happy emotions, her smile was like a flying butterfly, and even the air around her was lighter than elsewhere.

"I rented a homestay near Bamboo Street, not far from here. If it's convenient, we can go there later."

Bamboo Street is not very far from Konoha, but my sister did not know what to do, and completed the scene transition quietly.Bamboo Street is a community of people living independently of Konoha. It is called "Street", but it is actually a bustling town with very convenient life.Sasuke came here a few times when he went out to complete the mission. In his impression, there are people coming and going here at any time, and every shop is very lively.

In short, it is by no means the appearance of the surrounding area that is slumped and dusty like it is now.The root cause of all this is the two people who are still fighting over there.Sasuke took a look, and was immediately attracted by the lightning-fast shots from both sides.Although the smoke and dust are lingering, it is obvious that one side's advantage lies in speed while the other's advantage lies in strength... No, it is easy to misunderstand. In fact, neither side has shortcomings, but one side's speed is too fast, and The strength of the other side is too strong, so it seems that each has its own advantages.

Dazzling.It took a long time for Sasuke to realize that one of the parties in the fight was Itachi.But why is itachi here?Even fight with someone?He hates fighting the most.

And that white-haired man... so strong, is it a ninja from which village, or a traitor from a certain organization?Sasuke thought secretly.

Until my sister took a long breath.

"My God..." She seemed a little dumbfounded, "I think I can give him some wax first."

"elder sister?"

Sasuke had a bad feeling.

"Well, that's it." My sister nodded calmly, "That's my boyfriend."
