[Naruto] A date in the future

"Rope Tree, I'm here to see you."

This is the simple tombstone she asked Fujiwara to build by the river, and this is also the last gathering place for the three of them before departure.Although Muye Village also has a place for sweeping graves, she knew that Shengshu would definitely not like it.

Caressing the cold marble, the future drooping eyes seemed to be caught in the memory, Naoki's brimming smile was still vivid in her memory, and in a blink of an eye, an unrecognizable picture flashed in her mind, she pursed her lips, sobbing silently.

"Sakai-san." Fujiwara who was silently watching from the side reminded her in a low voice.

"Ah, I'm sorry. I accidentally remembered something from the past, Naoki, don't worry, I will take your share with me and laugh happily every day."

"I think Nakoki also hopes so." Fujiwara echoed.

"Hmm..." The dead are gone, and the living can only rely on such thoughts to comfort themselves.

"Um... Sakai-san, you haven't come back to Konoha for a long time, why don't I take you around? It just so happens that I also have something to say to you alone." Fujiwara scratched his head, appearing incoherent Panicked, Mirai nodded silently after listening to him patiently.

"Yeah." Coincidentally, she also had something to say to Fujiwara.

Konoha has indeed changed a lot. In my impression, many buildings have been demolished and remodeled, and there are also many shops that did not exist before, such as the popular Ichiraku Ramen recently. Fujiwara was very excited when he introduced Ichiraku Ramen. He said that he must invite everyone to eat together someday.

But what has changed the most is the fact that everyone has become a jinnin. Look at yourself in the future, but you are still a jinnin.

The Chunin Exam is held every three years, and it happened to be held once last year. This year is the second year. Even if you want to take part in the future, you will have to wait until a year later.

"That, Sakai-san..."

Fujiwara suddenly stopped and called out to the unknowing future in front of him. Unknowingly, the sky was approaching dusk and the sun was setting. They were standing on the bridge. When the future heard the sound and looked back, Fujiwara stood up nervously. body, with a flushed face bent at ninety degrees, and shouted loudly, "Sakai-san, I like you!"

This was the third time he had confessed to her, and perhaps it would be the last.

When Jiraiya was wandering on the road bored after reporting, he happened to come across such a scene, but even he himself didn't know why, he subconsciously chose to hide, hiding behind a tree and watching the two secretly.

"Fujiwara, I..." Future just said something, but was interrupted by Fujiwara again.

"It doesn't matter if you don't accept it!" Fujiwara raised his head, "I know that Sakai-san has always regarded me as a companion, not as a member of the opposite sex, because I, like Napeki, have been watching The figure of Sakai-san. I just want to tell you well, and it can be regarded as a victory against Nakoki."

Fujiwara smiled, which was different from his usual carefree smile, filled with a sunny smile.

"Thank you, Fujiwara." Mirai also smiled back, and that was all she could say.

Fujiwara seemed relieved, and finally conveyed the words in his heart, "Sakai-san, although I know it's impossible, I will not give up. I will wait until the day you accept me."

"Hmm." Future nodded.

Seeing Fujiwara waving goodbye before running away, Mirai stood there for a long time without leaving, scratching his head even when he came, and walked to her side with some embarrassment, Mirai realized and looked at the past.

"Just now, you saw it all."

"Uh, I didn't mean to take a peek." Ji Lai also pretended to cough, "Why didn't you accept it?"

Mirai closed one eye and looked at Jiraiya with a playful look, "Don't tell me you really want me to marry early and leave you?"

"Of course not..." Ji Laiya retorted subconsciously, but suddenly realized that the words were slightly ambiguous, and there was something wrong, "Oh, no, what do you mean by that?"

"Who knows~" Future smiled, without any intention of explaining, "I was just joking."

Seeing the future walking happily, Zilai also froze in place, could it be his illusion?How do you feel that there is something in the future talk just now?

"Jiraiya, if you don't follow me to dinner, I won't have your share."

"Don't wait, my little future!" Ji Lai also said "ah" and immediately chased after him.

Looking at Mirai Sakai walking ahead who has grown to the height of his chest, Jiraiya couldn't help but think of the topic he and Tsunade talked about during the day.Combined with what Mirai didn't finish just now, Jilai couldn't help but start to make sure, could it be that Mirai didn't accept Fujiwara because of him?

"Little future, are you really not sure about getting a boyfriend or something?" As far as he knew, all her friends seemed to have someone they were dating.

"Today's Zilai is really strange, why do you keep asking me this question." Although she pretended not to care and changed the subject, Zilai also saw through her intentions at a glance.

"Answer me. Mirai Sakai." If it was what he thought, Jiraiya would never allow himself to be a burden to Mirai.

Mirai lowered her head, and her walking pace became slower and slower, and finally stopped gradually. This was the first time Jiraiya called her by her full name. What do you want me to say about this kind of question, this kind of thing... If I don't meet someone I like, I can't rush it."

Zilai also sighed, "If it's because of me, then I'd better move out."

"..." Future looked at him in surprise, with an expression of disbelief, "Zilaiya?"

"To be honest, I've always been thinking, you'll get married one day when you grow up, is it really okay for me to keep you by my side so often?"

"What are you talking about... Jiraiya, are you kidding me?"

"Little Future, you are already 16 years old." Zilai also raised the corners of his mouth, "I should let go and let you grow up alone."

She never thought that Zilai would say such words to her, her heart stopped suddenly for a second, and the colic-like feeling caused her spirit to gradually collapse. Why did she feel such pain when she heard such news? Bastard, why do you feel like you will never see each other again after hearing Jiraiya's words.

Will Zilai also leave, and will she be left alone again? And unlike the previous departures, this time, she may never come back.

He didn't look at the girl's disappointed expression anymore, and Zilai also looked away. He also felt uncomfortable when he said such words, but if he didn't do this, he would never truly grow up in the future.

"Jiraiya, have you ever thought that you will give up your happiness in the future because of you?"
