11.

——But it wouldn’t be me if I didn’t act like this.

The sky outside was clear, and Konoha hadn’t rained for a long time. When Tsunade pushed the door and came in, I was stretching my muscles on the porch. I turned around and found that she was carrying a bottle of wine, a box of fresh milk and a plate of Spicy senbei.

"Let's have a conversation between adults this time." She found a place to sit down and greeted me, "Come, sit."

In the conversation between adults, I would have a chance to drink—I groaned, Tsunade found two cushions, and then poured me a glass of strawberry milk.I thought it was fresh milk, but when I saw the pink liquid, I felt dissatisfied with being looked down upon for my age.

Tsunade poured himself a glass of wine and said: "I was busy a few days ago, and today I finally asked for leave from the hospital. The ninjas on the mission have suffered too many injuries recently, so I haven't taken care of you."

I said blankly: "Actually, I have also turned around in the past two days."

"I didn't know about the fact that you are the next Jinchuriki, Chenai." Tsunade drank the contents of the glass, "To be honest, I knew at the beginning that I was also very... uncomfortable. But how to say Well. Later, I did think of this possibility. After all, grandma is really aging."

She calmly said: "Renzhuli is a must, Chennai, you also have the right chakra, so you are the most suitable candidate - what makes me feel unacceptable is that grandma has already decided your destiny so early , and didn't mention a word to you."

I nodded, eyes fixed on my strawberry milk.

Tsunade filled another glass for himself: "Since I came back, I feel that grandma treats you very well."

I nodded blankly and agreed: "Yes, Grandma Mito is very kind to me."

I can't describe my thoughts, I can only be a repeater.

Ever since Mikoto came, I felt a lot more relaxed in my heart, as if Mito grandma's false feelings for me as an actress were exposed, and Mikoto filled my void.

There is such a person who is sincerely worried about me.That alone warms my heart.

"I had a younger brother, Naoki." Tsunade pointed to my mug: "—Don't you want to drink it?"

I had to pick up the glass, admit that I was still a kid, and drank the strawberry milk.The taste is not bad, I kind of like it.

"Nawaki—when he died, he was actually about the same age as you are now. Probably two years older than you." Tsunade continued, "He died in the Second Ninja World War, and his internal organs were all emptied when he died. When I went to claim the body..."

Tsunade's tone had a slight tremor that couldn't be concealed.

"I didn't even recognize it was him."

I grip the glass tightly.

"He actually doesn't look like you at all." Tsunade said, "But you are very similar in your bones. Both of you are the same stubborn, and strong - Naoki is the last child left by my father, when my parents died He's only six months old, and my grandma raised Rope Tree, and loves him like her own eyes."

I touched the cup and felt a dull pain in my heart.

Tsunade said: "When he died, grandma didn't say a word, she just shed tears. When I went home during that time, I would see grandma sitting under the porch with snacks next to her. She looked at the sunset and said something. No. When I left Konoha, I was even afraid that she would completely break down my body and spirit."

"But after you came, I found that grandma had someone to accompany her, and the snacks made by auntie had someone to eat. After school, you would sit side by side with grandma and bask in the sun. . . . When you pass the test, I will take you to eat."

Tsunade said softly: "I originally thought that Naoki... After he left, grandma would miss him forever. A ninja lived to old age, lost his country and widowed, and his former companions either died of missions or wars, or died. Due to old injuries, now she even lost the chance to be under the knee of her grandson Chenghuan. This is a blow that is difficult to get over. But grandma finally found another sustenance."

Tsunade said: "The weaker she is, the less she dares to look you in the eyes. She is afraid of being found out about her sins and regrets. She is the culprit for your becoming Jinzhuriki, but her regrets are definitely not fake."

"She did this to you when she didn't know you, and decided your fate without authorization. But Chennai, grandma now treats you as a family member.—Me too."

"——you are her relatives. I know what you are sad about, and I hope I can make you feel better by saying this."

Tsunade looked at me.

There was bitterness in my mouth, as if I had eaten a lotus heart raw.Tsunade stopped talking about it, and instead advised me to drink the strawberry milk in the glass. I drank it obediently, but I couldn't taste the sweetness when I tasted it.

"I brought a few medical ninjas here today, and brought Grandma Mito to the hospital for a full-body examination... I guess the examination report is out now." Tsunade looked at his watch and complained painfully: "I'll go to the hospital first. The hospital—it’s enough, why are there so many messes in the hospital..."

"I'll go to the hospital to see her." I said shyly.

Tsunade smiled and said, "Thank you, Chennai, you are a good boy."

The wind gradually picked up outside the window, and the bright sunlight was shaken by the trees in the courtyard to shatter shadows on the ground.The warm summer wind blows through my red hair and Tsunade's blond hair.I think of the day when I first met her, I wrote down in my wish book that I wanted such beautiful hair as hers, but now when I think about it again, it almost feels like the sea has changed.

Tsunade stood up and straightened his coat, then bent down and whispered to me: "...Even if you lie to her, tell grandma that you forgive her, okay?"

I wiped off a little dust on the forehead, wiped the forehead along the groove of the Konoha logo, and then put on the white shorts I usually wear.After thinking about it, I still didn't wear the forehead protector after all--I have a test in my heart that I can't pass it no matter what.Then I put on my shoes, combed my long hair into a ponytail, and walked out of the empty Thousand Hands Mansion.

As twilight deepened, the sky of Konoha was dyed purple-orange, and was cut to pieces by branches.I walked down the mountain road.

I walked through the long mountain path and when I walked out of the mountain gate, I happened to see a very familiar blond boy standing in front of the flower shop in the mountain picking flowers.He picked out a bouquet of pink carnations at the florist.

I greeted him: "Are you here to buy flowers? Minato."

Minakame Minato asked with concern: "You are finally willing to go out. Are you feeling better?"

I immediately scratched my head in embarrassment: "...Forget it, it's better... So you also know that I stay behind closed doors."

Namikaze Minato didn't answer my question, but smiled at me and let me choose.

I thought about it, and picked out a few white and red carnations of mixed colors. Minato Namikaze asked the boss, "How much did she choose?"

The boss did the math and said, "250 taels, the two of you add up to give me [-] taels."

Namikaze Minato paid the money happily, and the two of us stood awkwardly at the door of the flower shop with carnations in our arms. I whispered awkwardly: "I brought the money——"

Namikaze Minato explained: "It's cheaper to pay together - if you really care, please treat me to barbecue next time."

"Okay, then I owe you a barbecue." I nodded in agreement: "What do you buy flowers for?"

Namikaze Minato: "I'm going to visit the Memorial Monument. I'm going to send flowers to my parents, how about you?"

I whispered: "I... I'm going to Konoha Hospital, Grandma Mito is hospitalized."

"It's not safe for a girl to be alone at night." Namikaze Minato said nothing, "I'll see you off."

I thought to myself how could my gymnastics be among the top five in our class, how could it be unsafe?But for some reason I felt a little bit of sweet mirth—so I nodded my head in a ghostly way.

Konoha's night lights are dim, like a falling book that can't be sung.The izakaya was brightly lit, and the two of us walked side by side.I looked at him sideways, thinking quietly in my heart, this boy has really good eyes.

The azure is as blue as the cloudless sky, and also as the tidal sea of ​​my motherland.

Namikaze Minato was a little uncomfortable: "Is there something on my face?"

I was guilty of being a thief, and was so scared by his words that I almost couldn't hold my flowers, and stammered: "No, no, it's very clean..."

Namikaze Minato——Minato, smiled and changed the subject: "Have you ever been to Konoha Hospital?"

Me: "I've been here, but I don't really remember the way...do you know how to get there?"

"Familiar." He smiled and pointed, "This direction."

I quickened my pace to keep up with him, and we went in through the alley on the side of the main road. The houses next to the main road of Konoha are probably more expensive-there are no balconies for drying clothes, and long windows protrude from every window. The poles are used to dry the wet clothes that cannot be dried in the house.

"It's on this street." Shuimen dragged me to run: "This direction."

I ran with him, and then stopped in front of Muye Hospital. Muye Hospital is a square building with cool lights, which seems to be shining with reason, and white sheets are hanging on the roof.

Namikaze Minato said considerately: "I will accompany you in."

I thought about sharp needles, vaccinations, and blood draws, and I shivered.But I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t pretend to be a coward. I put on a brave face and said, “No, I’m not afraid of the hospital. Cowards are afraid—afraid!”

Namikaze Minato suddenly said: "There are more people who died in the hospital than on the battlefield. The grievances of those who did not die on the battlefield may be here. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a barrel of grievances. There are more than thirty leaves in the mortuary. Nian Wraith, do you know that doctors are superstitious, right? Pay attention to Feng Shui, right? It’s all because of this.”

Although I'm pretending, you don't have to scare me like that—I shuddered again.Just when I was about to turn my head and swear that I was strong and reliable, I found that there was not even a shadow of Minato.

Mom... Damn it! !I was so frightened that I almost fainted, and the ghost story in my head was rehearsed to the fifth: What kind of ghosts died on the battlefield and made me and Minato mess with the wall today Kill this one tomorrow Kill this one Ah, they can return to the mortal world after summoning a hundred souls, messing up the world, and all the peace treaties are in vain. From then on, we became slaves of the undead, and then a few years later, a gray-robed wizard named Gandalf Collect Dragon Balls on the continent——

A cold hand from behind patted me, and my hair exploded: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!"

The person who patted me was Minato Namikaze, and he was out of breath laughing at this moment: "I didn't expect Chennai to be so timid, hahahaha——"

My hair exploded, and I yelled at him: "Namikaze Minato——you are a bad person!!"

"Okay, okay, okay—hahahaha I'm a bad guy." Namikaze Minato couldn't breathe from laughing, and dragged me to the hospital with my hairy hair.I was so shocked that I didn't realize that I should have punched him now.

Minato made a family visit registration at the triage desk: "Senju Mito's family, Uzumaki Kina——Maybe Tsunade-sama has informed you about it before, right?"

"Yes." The nurse smiled gently: "Bed 501, Room 27, Department of Cardiology, Fifth Floor, please try to end the visit before nine o'clock."

The stairwell in the hospital at night was empty, and I was dragged up five floors by that little bastard, Minato Namikaze, and entered the ward.Nurses in the Department of Cardiology pushed the trolley to check the room and record body temperature.After I explained my purpose, the nurse checked my carnations and asked me to go to the innermost ward.

Cardiology patients—or most internal medicine—are in this style.Most of the illnesses in internal medicine are incurable, but not immediately life-threatening. From patients to doctors and nurses, everyone is familiar with them.I was discharged from the hospital on the number bed today, and I may come back three days later, and I still live in that number bed.I stood in front of the door of Room 501 and took a deep breath. I looked in through the sticker on the glass of the door. The inside was foggy with the humidifier on, so I couldn't see clearly.

Namikaze Minato smiled at me gently: "Go, I'll wait for you outside."

I took a deep breath, nodded, summoned up courage - and knocked on the door.

"True".

The author has something to say: minor repairs on 12/13!
