[Naruto Storyline] Wandering

The first time Haruno Sakura saw Xiang Rin was in the dungeon where He Yuan was stationed.

Heyuan's dungeon was cold and dark. After showing his identity card, Haruno Sakura was allowed to enter.Under the guidance of the guards, along the long corridor of the dungeon, Haruno Sakura came to the door of the cell where Xiang Rin was held. The red-haired woman was still wearing Akatsuki's military uniform, and she was sitting expressionlessly on the bed in the corner of the cell. After hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiang Rin raised her head, and when she saw Haruno Sakura standing at the door of the cell, she couldn't help laughing.

"Doctor Haruno, this way please." The guard Haruno Sakura opened the door of the visiting room, and then led Xiang Rin out of the cell. The sound of handcuffs and footcuffs was quite ear-piercing in the silent dungeon.

At both ends of the table in the visiting room, Haruno Sakura finally saw Xiangrin's face clearly, and the other party also looked at Haruno Sakura with a half-smile.After a long time, Haruno Sakura broke the stiff atmosphere: "I heard your name in the news, Karin Uzumaki, it was you who assisted Sasuke in rebelling and escaping from Konoha."

Xianglin did not deny Haruno Sakura's words, she squinted her eyes, and smiled at Haruno Sakura with her fingers curled around her long hair hanging on her chest: "I have seen you too, Haruno Sakura, in the photo on your bedside, that It's a photo of you and Sasuke, am I right?" Seeing that Haruno Sakura didn't speak, Xiang Rin put her arms on the table and leaned forward to get close to Haruno Sakura: "Your bed is very comfortable, and the bathroom is also very comfortable. very beautiful."

At that moment, Haruno Sakura's body froze, her breathing became rapid, and there was a dull and distant pain in her heart. She remembered the conversation between Sai and Itachi she heard in the country of water, but Haruno Sakura never thought of one of the parties involved. Sitting in front of me now.The banter on Xianglin's face was infinitely magnified in Haruno Sakura's eyes, and every word Xianglin said made Haruno Sakura feel her soul being pulled out of her body.Haruno Sakura held the edge of the table tightly with her hands, forcing herself to maintain a calm posture, she raised her head to look at Xiang Rin's face: "You don't have to try to provoke me, don't you think that in terms of the current situation, you are more pitiful than me Haruno Sakura sighed, "Sasuke abandoned you, the fellow officers complained about you, and the soldiers didn't want to listen to your orders and fled in all directions."

Xianglin leaned against the back of the chair, her lips were tightly closed, her gaze was a little erratic: "It's not that Sasuke abandoned me, it's that I was willing to fight for him to the last moment of my life. Sasuke is my general to me, If the general dies in battle, then this war is meaningless to me."

Haruno Sakura chuckled and shook her head: "You are somewhat similar to me before, no matter what, you think it's good to give everything you have..."

"No." Xianglin interrupted Haruno Sakura, "I am different from you. In this process, we choose each other. I chose Sasuke, and Sasuke chose me. You use your so-called love to bond I followed Sasuke's footsteps, and I tried my best to send him to his goal and peak, which is why Sasuke finally chose me instead of you."

"Then why did you choose him?" Haruno Sakura asked after a long silence, "Why Sasuke and not someone else?"

Xianglin thought about it seriously, seemed to be lost in memory, and murmured to herself after a long while: "Only after he knew my past, he was not curious about my life experience, or inquiring about my entanglement with the Uzumaki clan, It’s not about guessing my various relationships with Orochimaru, but saying that I’m overqualified.” Xiang Rin’s eyes became brighter, “In his eyes, there was a light that was unwilling to be dull. At that time, I knew that he was not Will be willing to let the rest of his life rot in the soil of Konoha, the greenhouse, he will turn into an eagle, a ball of fire, destroy everything, burn everything, and let everyone remember his name."

"Do you know how long it took me to extinguish the burning fire of revenge in his heart?" Haruno Sakura closed her eyes, "He could have lived his life peacefully."

"He was not born for peace. You have known Sasuke for so long, have you never noticed his ambition?" Xiang Rin snorted, as if mocking Haruno Sakura.

"It is precisely because I know that he is not willing to be mediocre that I voluntarily gave up my military status for him so that he can smoothly enter the General Logistics Department of the Konoha Army, gain a firm foothold in Konoha, and then step by step to achieve what he wants to achieve. location." Haruno Sakura spread out her hands, "Only in this way can he revitalize the Uchiha clan that was destroyed back then."

"But have you ever thought about whether he can accept your kindness. With all due respect, Haruno Sakura, this way of expressing love has no effect except to make Sasuke feel even more destitute." Xianglin said, "Sasuke's partner must be a woman who can fight side by side with him and finally stand on the pinnacle of glory with him. I thought, this person would be me, but I don't regret it at all, compared to you who never really know him In my heart, at least Sasuke has been honest with me, from heart to body."

Haruno Sakura sat on the chair in a daze, she suddenly felt that she was such a failure, even the chair seemed to have thousands of needles, which made her extremely uncomfortable, facing Xiang Rin's words, Haruno Sakura felt that she had nothing to do. Powerless, although she has been able to frankly talk about the past between herself and Sasuke, it is still difficult for her to admit the fact that she has known Sasuke for more than 20 years, and as his former classmate, friend and wife, she is not as good as her present This woman who had known Sasuke for less than five years.

"No matter what you say, it's hard to change the fact that Sasuke left you and left the battlefield alone." Haruno Sakura sat up straight, "Back then Sasuke could have taken you away from Konoha and the Land of Fire, so of course he could have taken you away from the battlefield." With you leaving this battlefield that is about to fall, whether you are willing to stay or whether he is unwilling to take you away, I am afraid that you know best in your heart."

Haruno Sakura's words seemed to pierce Xiang Rin's pain, her eyes suddenly dimmed, looking at the silent Xiang Rin, Haruno Sakura also understood most of the reasons: "You and Sasuke used to be colleagues, then you should know, Five years ago, I returned to Konoha from the country of water, and I was under investigation for some things. At that time, Konoha Central told Sasuke that as long as he was willing to draw a line with me and dissolve the relationship between husband and wife, he would be transferred to the finance department."

"I know." Xianglin showed a forced smile, "In the end, he stepped on you and climbed to the position of the finance department."

"That day, he came to see me in the detention center and told me about it. I thought, this should be the last time I can help him, so I took the initiative to ask for a divorce. However, when I saw him immediately from the When I took out the divorce agreement from the handbag, I suddenly understood in my heart that he came to me for the divorce, he understood that he was my weakness, and he understood that I would definitely compromise for him again." Haruno Sakura stopped Shut up, sigh lightly, "I say this, not to deny any of your views, because the Sasuke I know may not be the same as the Sasuke you know. At least I have known Sasuke for so many years, he is not willing to Sharing his heart with others, and even after we got married, he never shared his thoughts with me."

"what do you want to say in the end?"

"What I want to say is that only you know your position in Sasuke's heart." Haruno Sakura said, he looked into Xiang Rin's eyes, "in his heart, there is actually neither you nor me, what do you think? "

Xianglin didn't speak, her eyes seemed to lose focus, and she looked blankly at the sky.

Haruno Sakura stood up and was about to walk out of the visiting room. When she reached the door, she stopped and asked Xiang Rin without looking back, "Miss Uzumaki, do you love Sasuke?"

"In this world, you can't simply distinguish between love and not love." Xianglin's voice came faintly, "We just met each other at just the right time, and he chose me to be his pawn, and I also I am willing to be the sword in his hand and fight everywhere for him. He doesn't love me, and I...don't love him..." Her voice became weaker and weaker, until finally, she asked Haruno Sakura, "What about you?"

"This question has long been meaningless to me." After Haruno Sakura finished speaking, she left the visiting room.

In the dark night, a black military vehicle of Xiao's was bumping and driving fast on the vast plain, and their destination was the country of rain.

The man in the driver's seat is Obito Uchiha, and Sasuke Uchiha is sitting in the passenger seat. Obito is watching Sasuke's expression while driving. Since they left the country of sound, Sasuke has been in a state of silence. State, frowning.The two drove alternately, stopped to fill up the gas tank when they encountered a gas station, and stopped to have a meal when they encountered a restaurant. After driving like this for several days, they finally passed through the country of soup and the country of birds, and entered the Within the territory of the country of Sichuan, there are only less than two days away from the country of rain.

"Why, aren't you going to explain?" Obito parked the car on the side of the road, "Come on, let's get out of the car and have a meal." He pushed Sasuke out of the car without any explanation.Sitting in the restaurant, Obito and Sasuke ordered a bowl of ramen alone. There were bright oily flowers floating on the hot noodle soup, exuding an attractive aroma.

"Explain what?" Sasuke squinted at Obito who was buried in eating noodles.

"You really left that little girl alone?"

"It's no big deal." Sasuke stirred the noodle soup with chopsticks, picked up the noodles and ate them, "That woman is really stupid, I don't have any value in me that she should follow."

Obito raised the corners of his mouth with great interest when he heard the words: "Everyone's definition of value is different. Things that you think are worthless may be the most important things in their eyes." Sasuke raised his head and brought Tu seemed to have something in his words, but Sasuke was irrefutable, he didn't answer, and silently lowered his head to eat noodles.

After eating the bowl of noodles, Sasuke turned his head and whispered to Obito, "Anyway, please come to Otono Country to pick me up this time."

Obito laughed, and accepted Sasuke's thanks frankly.After paying some money, Sasuke replaced Obito and sat in the driver's seat. Obito adjusted the angle of the back of the seat and found a comfortable position to lie down halfway: "Let's go, Payne said that the famous KMWRC on the black market The person in charge, Nobuo Sakuma, offered to cooperate with Akatsuki, and he is still waiting to meet me in the Land of Rain, and he heard that he wants to discuss some interesting things with me."

"whats the matter?"

"Kyubi completion plan, have you heard of it?" Obito said with a smile.

Sasuke repeated it suspiciously, then shook his head, "I don't know."

"Interesting." Obito pursed his lips and smiled.
