[Hokage] Thank you for loving me

In autumn, Muye Village once again ushers in the season of falling leaves.

Kakashi called Sasuke to the office and asked about the progress of the escort mission.Of course, the first topic of the meeting is, as usual, what Hokage cares most about—"Did anything happen between you and the third princess?"

Sasuke glared at him impatiently.

"It's not that I don't trust you because I'm afraid you'll attack her." Kakashi scratched his hair and smiled wryly: "On the contrary, what I'm worried about is what she will do to you. In short, during the mission , you must not be swayed by her seduction...uh, enthusiasm."

Do something to him?Although Sasuke has no interest in love between men and women, he has been surrounded by girls since he was a child, and he knows what behaviors are showing his favor.Although, out of pride in her status, Geunhee is more reserved in front of others; however, when she practices the piano or writes and leaves Sasuke alone with her, she will say some overly intimate words to Sasuke without a trace, or Engage in suggestive physical touching.

Sasuke is generally too lazy to say no explicitly, but he will back off or dodge without a trace to show his silent dislike.After coming and going, Geunji was not only not angry or discouraged; later on, she even took it as a kind of fun, and patiently showed her kindness to Sasuke every day.

It's a pity that when a person's heart is not on you, beauty is nothing, and patience is futile.

"When will this mission end?" Sasuke asked.

Kakashi shook his head, "The mission will not be complete until the gang of thieves are captured. However, they are really calm. It has been more than a month, and there is no sign of action at all." Index finger Tapping on the desk again and again, Kakashi seemed to be more anxious than the enemies hiding in the dark.

"Konoha is heavily guarded, and the other party will definitely not act rashly. As long as you stay in the village, the mission will not make much progress."

"Yes. The most effective way at this stage is to deliberately relax the defense around the third princess, put her in danger, and let the other party think that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it." Kakashi frowned and analyzed: "However, the daimyo My lord will definitely not agree; moreover, looking at the current appearance of the third princess, it seems that she intends to spend her life in Muye Village, and she will not cooperate with us." The whole person leaned back on the chair, raised his head, and he felt that the task The foreground was blank like the ceiling.

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, until the phone on the table rang.

Kakashi quickly sat up straight, and just after answering a few words from the other party, his face became serious; but when he finally hung up the phone, his eyes flashed with excitement and joy.

"The third princess was attacked just now!" The tone of this speech may be a bit too gloating, and the sixth Hokage quickly added: "Those guys finally appeared!"

The two rushed back to the hotel, and Anbu, a guard, immediately came forward and briefly reported the situation at that time:

Not long after Sasuke went to Hokage's office, Geunhee went into the bathroom to change clothes, while two Anbu guarded the door.Suddenly, Jin Hee's maid screamed in the room; after a moment of hesitation, two guards rushed in with their eyes closed.Because the eyes cannot see, the assailant easily won the battle, and hit another Anbe's right thigh with the iron country's pistol, and then escaped through the window while taking advantage of the commotion.Now, the injured guard has been sent to the hospital for treatment; as for Jin Ji, fortunately, the maid responded in a timely manner, and she was not injured in any way, only a little frightened, and after hurriedly putting on her clothes, she was sent back to her room to rest.

"I understand roughly." Six generations nodded, and said to the reporter: "You have worked hard. Sasuke has rushed back now, you should step back and take a rest."

Anbu took the order and left, while Sasuke and Kakashi walked along the corridor to Geunhee's room.

"Just now I was still guessing when the opponent would make a move, but I didn't expect them to give the answer so quickly." Kakashi pondered: "But...how did they sneak into Konoha?"

"You can ask people from the enchantment class and patrol class to confirm."

Kakashi nodded in agreement, and then said: "If they came in by force, it would be much easier to deal with. I'm afraid they came in among the ordinary villagers. After the attack, they can continue to hide in the villagers go among."

"Besides the infiltrating method, the timing of their attack is also very strange." Sasuke said, "Why would those thieves attack just when I was out? Before, whether it was me or the shadow, I guarded Geunji, and the other party did not No sign of any action; but they just showed up when they reported to the mission today. It's almost like knowing my itinerary in advance."

Kakashi looked serious, and asked, "You mean...there are those people's insiders in the village?"

"Neiying..." Sasuke murmured, "I'm afraid, it's not just as simple as inside..."

Analyzing the identity of the assailant along the way, the two came to Geun Hee's room.

The maid cautiously opened the paper door and said, "After the two of you go in, please be quiet for a while. The doctor sent by Konoha Hospital is treating Lady Jinji."

Sasuke looked up, and there was indeed a red figure half-kneeling beside Geunhee's bed. The warm chakra glowed faintly on the bedside, and the room was filled with a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere.

Jin Ji is a rich woman and a person of high status, so the person who came to treat her was naturally the best female doctor in Muye Village, Haruno Sakura.

Hearing movement behind her, Sakura couldn't help turning her head, and sure enough, she saw Kakashi and Sasuke walking into the room one after the other.Her eyes lit up immediately, flashing the excitement of reunion, but she opened her mouth, and there was only one name to greet: "Mr. Kakashi." She bit her lip lightly, then turned her head back.

Sasuke's face darkened, he stopped, and retreated to the corner of the room, kneeling silently as usual.

"Oh, Sakura came here so soon, so I don't worry." Sasuke squinted and walked to the side, and then looked at Sakura beside Geunhime's bed. Kakashi sighed secretly and continued to go walked over.

"Princess Geunhee, I'm really sorry." Kakashi knelt down on the side of the bed and lowered his head heavily, expressing his sincere apology; He looked at Geun Hee who was lying on the bed.Her face was pale, her lips were pale, and she was leaning on the cushion with a lazy and charming attitude, as if she had just recovered from a fright.

"If I had known earlier, I would have gone to visit Lord Hokage with Uchiha-kun, and I shouldn't have let him leave my concubine's side." Jin Hee glanced at Sasuke in the corner mournfully, as if complaining why he didn't Come over to care about yourself; unfortunately, the other party didn't meet her eyes, so she said again:

"Since those terrible people have appeared. Then from now on, Uchiha-kun must be more careful to protect my body and accompany me at all times." Concealed to reveal the intimacy and dependence on Sasuke.

Beside the bed, the hands covering Jin Ji's forehead trembled involuntarily, and Sakura's chakra breath also fluctuated chaotically, however, it quickly returned to stability.

At this time, I only heard Kakashi say: "Princess Jinji, don't worry, according to the clues they left behind in this attack, the intelligence team will definitely locate their whereabouts as soon as possible. As long as they know the enemy's hiding place, they can quickly Catch them quickly, and let you feel at ease soon."

"Then Hokage-sama will take care of you." Jin Ji smiled gently at Kakashi, and added: "Uchiha-kun should also work hard, what I hope is that Uchiha-kun can personally kill those people." Catch it."

Oh, oh, I really recognized Sasuke.Kakashi coughed in embarrassment, and glanced at the people in the corner: Although he didn't know why the third princess was so obsessed with Sasuke, Sasuke obviously had no interest in her.If the marriage is forcibly pointed out, as Sasuke's teacher, no, it should be regarded as a relative, he will never approve; but, as Hokage, it is inconvenient for him to clearly stand up against it.Therefore, it may be the only feasible way to let the Anbu and the intelligence team catch the bandit group first, eliminate the danger around the third princess, and dispel her excuse to stay here.

"Please don't worry, Your Highness, Sasuke will step up his guard if something like this happens." Kakashi responded perfunctorily to Jin Ji's words just now.Turning his gaze, he noticed that Sakura beside him was always lowering his eyebrows, not as energetic as usual, and he thought he was a little concerned about the relationship between Sasuke and Jinji.

"After all, for Sasuke, this is the responsibility of the mission." Kakashi deliberately emphasized the tone of the last two words, and Kakashi patted Sakura on the back encouragingly, and confessed: "Princess Geunhee, please treat me , I still have business to deal with, let's take a step first."

The atmosphere was so awkward, and there was only so much he could help here.

Young people's affairs, after all, still need to be handled by themselves.

After Kakashi left, the room fell into an eerie silence.After a while, Sakura withdrew her hand and asked, "Master Jin Ji, do you feel better now?"

The beauty on the bed nodded, "Thank you, Dr. Chunye, not only has my mood calmed down a lot, but I also feel comfortable all over."

"It's good that Jin Ji is satisfied." She has always resisted resistance to beautiful things, looking at Jin Ji's charming smile, Xiao Ying couldn't help feeling flustered, and her face blushed slightly.

Such a person, no one can't help but want to protect her and take care of her after looking at her, it's really... a bit envious...

When the thought flashed by, Sakura felt inexplicably shivering, and Sakura hurriedly looked away from Jinji's face, opened the medical kit and searched.Then, she took out a pack of medicine and said earnestly: "This is a medicine for calming the nerves. If Your Highness still feels scared or restless, you can take one."

"Thank you." Jin Ji lightly pointed to the cabinet next to her, "Put it there."

"Follow-up, if Master Jinji has any problems, please contact me at any time." Xiao Ying stood up, put away the medicine, put away the medical kit, and said, "Today, I will take my leave first."

Turning around, Sakura walked towards the door.Sasuke was sitting obliquely in front, his sense of presence was so strong, realizing this, she simply didn't know what expression to put on or how to walk.

The expression on Sakura's face began to become at a loss, her sight was like a kite with a broken string, fluttering leisurely in front of her, and finally, she circled around and landed on Sasuke in the corner.

Sasuke had been looking at her the whole time, and the moment he met her gaze, his gaze became hot.Sakura felt her breath was suffocated, and the expression on her face became even more rigid.

The two just looked at each other silently, neither of them said anything.

However, the room is only so big, no matter how slow the pace is, Sakura's toes have already touched the threshold.She really wanted to say something to Sasuke, no matter how bad it was, she could just say hello with a smile; but it was a bit abrupt to talk to him when she was at the door; besides, the princess was still lying behind her...

She sighed in frustration and reached out to open the door.

Sasuke stood up with a "swoosh", took the first step, and silently opened the paper door.

Sakura was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help showing a happy face.When she walked past Sasuke, she took one last look at him, her eyes were filled with complex emotions, anger and joy, complaints and reluctance.

Those eyes, like the continuous drizzle floating in the green pool, the circles of water ripples silently rippling in Sasuke Heart Lake.

After Sakura left, Geunhee said she wanted to rest for a while, so Sasuke left the room.

After confirming that Sasuke had left, Jinji called a maid, pointed to the dispensing medicine on the cabinet, and ordered: "Take that out and throw it away." The maid was about to take the order to go out, and she added: "By the way, Bring another lamp of incense, open the window, and dispel the vulgarity."

In the empty living room, she slowly lay back on the embroidered pillow.Staring at the ceiling, dazed for a while, Jinji suddenly grabbed the quilt tightly with her ten fingers, pinching deeper and deeper into the quilt, and the sullenness in her eyes became stronger and lasted for a long time.

In the middle of the night, Jin Hee had rested, and her physical condition seemed to have recovered. She suddenly said that she wanted to practice the piano, so she ordered the maid to call Sasuke to the Japanese room.

She was sitting in the upper seat, stroking the shamisen leisurely, playing a piece that Sasuke had never heard before, the melody was melodious, melodious and lingering.

Sasuke sat on the ball cushion on the lower right side, sitting quietly as usual.At the beginning, he concentrated on adjusting his breath and had no distractions, but the music gradually entered his ears, Haruno Sakura's eyes when he parted in the afternoon accompanied by the sound of the piano began to become clear in his thoughts, making him dazed again unconsciously.He closed his eyes in annoyance, but he could see the appearance of Sakura in his memory more clearly.Over the years, all kinds of eyes that Sakura looked at him are vivid in his memory. When he is happy, his eyes are full of spring, when he is in love, he is tender like honey, when he is angry, the dark fire flows, and when he is sad, he finds that he remembers them all very clearly.

While she was in a trance, the sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and Jin Ji put her hands on the strings, and asked softly: "Uchiha-kun, you are listening so intently, do you like this piece of music?"

Sasuke jumped out of the memories, and after a moment of shock, he slowly nodded and admitted.

"Do you know what story this song is about?"

"……what?"

Seeing Sasuke's rare questioning, Jinji smiled sweetly, and said, "This song is called "Chunqin Copy". It tells the story of a musician who is infatuated with his master, Chunqin."

"Musician and Chunqin's childhood sweetheart have been secretly in love with her since they were young, but Chunqin was born with pride and was never willing to accept the musician's love; until one day, Chunqin was disfigured because of her jealous appearance, and when she was dying of pain, the musician came to her In front of him. In order to prove that his love will not be changed by the destruction of Chunqin's appearance, the musician offered his own eyes and became a blind man."

"Finally, Chunqin was moved by the musician's deep affection and agreed to accept his heart. In this way, the musician served Chunqin as a lover and as a blind person. Until she died, she remained in love with her forever, and played every day. This song composed by her is to comfort the missing."

After narrating the story, Jinji paused and asked, "Sasuke-kun, do you know the name of the musician in the story?"

Sasuke raised his eyebrows, motioning for her to continue.

Jin Hee smiled and said, "That affectionate musician is also called Sasuke."

"Sasuke" who loves "Haruno" deeply, and Sasuke who once loved Haruno Sakura deeply?Suddenly feeling that this story was full of irony, Sasuke hooked the corner of his mouth in a self-deprecating manner.

Wait, what did I think of just now! ?

Love! ?

He loves Sakura Haruno?

For a long time, the emotion buried deep in my heart was suddenly given the name "love".Sasuke sat there in shock, his mind blank.

Geunhee on the opposite side didn't seem to be aware of Sasuke's abnormality, but was happy that he finally had an expression other than indifference.She put down the piano, slowly knelt and sat opposite Sasuke, and asked, "Does Uchiha-kun like my concubine's eyes?"

Staring silently at the pair of blue eyes like Haruno Sakura, Sasuke didn't answer.

Jin Ji sat a little closer to him, leaned forward a little more, and could lean her head on his shoulder.

"The appearance of my concubine can't attract Uchiha-kun at all. Fortunately, there are still these eyes, which can attract your attention. The way Uchiha-kun looks at these eyes of my concubine is really quite gentle. "The voice of soft words flowed out thinly, mixed with the breathing of the two, the atmosphere between them became ambiguous.

"Actually, I really like Sasuke-kun's eyes." Geun-hee changed her address naturally, and after Bitong gave Sasuke a slight slant, she changed into a sexy and charming tone, and asked:

"Sasuke-kun, are you willing to dedicate your eyes to the woman you love like the luthier in the song?"

Beloved woman?For Sasuke, who bears the blood of a family alone, he never thought that there would be someone in this world who is more precious than his unique eyes, so precious that he should sacrifice his eyes in exchange for that love.

But at this moment, he thought about this question seriously, and the answer that came to his mind was Haruno Sakura.

"Sasuke-kun?" Seeing that the other party had no intention of refusing, Jinhee moved closer to Sasuke's side by half an inch, and her body was almost attached to his body.

Sasuke lowered his head and stared at the eyes of the person in front of him, the eyes were so green that they seemed to drip water.

Unfortunately, no matter how similar the eyes are, they are not as beautiful as hers; no matter how gentle words are, they are not as warm as her sincere care.

Just because it's not her.

Sasuke stood up abruptly, and without looking at Geunhee any more, he said blankly, "Let's go to bed early", walked past her, and opened the paper door.

"Wait a minute! Sasuke Uchiha!" Jin Ji shouted sharply from behind.He has already flattered to this point, not only failed to capture the other party, but received unprecedented ignorance.In a rage, she thumped the tatami with her jade hands, her eyes changed suddenly, full of astonishment and humiliation.

It's a pity that for those who can't walk into his heart, Sasuke has never bothered to pay attention to their emotions.Turning a deaf ear to the movement behind him, he walked out of the Japanese room without looking back.

In the middle of the month, after Haruno Sakura returned home from the hotel, she thought about some things before going to Rainbow Country and the work handover, and also thought about when she would go to Sasuke again and reconcile with him. In a daze, he fell asleep soon.

In the pitch-black room, the space portal emerged, and the white light shone, reflecting the light and shadow on Sakura's sleeping face, alternating light and dark.

She blinked her eyelashes slightly, and her eyelids twitched twice, as if she felt something unusual.But the white light was fleeting, and the person who sneaked into the room completely concealed his breath. Sakura's vigilance faded away, she curled her lips, and soon fell asleep again.

Sasuke stood by the bed, leaning down to look down at her sleeping face.

Her eyes were tightly closed, and she couldn't see the pupils inside, but Sasuke knew that those eyes must be as bright as ever, green as spring.

He has always regarded Sakura as his most important companion just like Naruto.

It wasn't until he started to be jealous, angry and possessive that he gradually realized that she was special, and even, he understood what liking meant.

In the end, when he learned to constantly give up his pride, compromise, and accept every choice she made, he realized that he was already deeply in love.

He never thought that he would have the feeling of love, and he didn't know how much of his limited feelings was love.

But if it is Haruno Sakura, he is willing to try to love, and he is also willing to give all his love.
