? When Eri pushed open the door, Naruto rushed towards her immediately, "Sister! Welcome back!"

"Ah...en." Eri subconsciously caught Naruto, and then forced a smile, "I'm back."

Naruto looked up at Eri's slightly dark face, "What's wrong? Sister seems unhappy?"

"..." Eri smiled and patted his head, "No, it's nothing."

It's too embarrassing to say that she failed the ninja test, although she can't hide it for long.

Depressedly sighed in the bottom of my heart, I thought she was a little closer to Itachi, but it turned out that not only was she not close but she was farther away, Itachi had entered Anbu and became a leader in Konoha Village, but she was still just a crane tail.

What a sad story to think about.

Eri had to go back to school because she failed the test, and the other two seemed to have given up on being ninjas, because Eri didn't see them among those sent back to school.

Counting the number of people who were sent back to school, it was not too many. I heard that only a small number of those who failed the test returned to school, and most of them chose to give up the profession of ninja.

It turns out that after graduating from school, she will definitely become a ninja. She was too naive.

She still has one year to officially graduate from the school, which is also the time for Naruto to enter school. If she still fails to pass the ninja test by then, is she going to go to school with Naruto?

It's embarrassing to think about it...

Somehow Naruto soon found out that she had failed the test. After returning home that day and opening the door, Eri saw Naruto standing at the entrance looking at her with some concern, and she could tell from the expression on his face at a glance. Seeing what she was thinking, she was close to writing "Sister, you failed" on her face.

"..." Eri pulled him into the house, trying to divert his attention, "Sister, I bought a barbecue pie today."

Naruto followed her silently, his mouth pursed and he didn't say a word.

Even delicious food can't tempt him, it seems that he really cares about this matter.

"I'm so weak, will Naruto look down on me?" Eri patted his head helplessly.

Naruto froze, then shook his head desperately, and looked at her with wide blue eyes, "If my sister is weak, I will try my best to become stronger and protect you!"

"Aha..." Eri burst out laughing, and patted him on the shoulder, "Come on, Naruto, but if you can become Hokage, of course I will be able to protect my sister."

"Hokage?" Naruto was stunned for a moment, and then said firmly with his fists clenched, "Then, then I will definitely become Hokage! Let everyone in the village agree with me!"

"..." Eri froze for a moment, then rolled her eyes with a smile, "Naruto is indeed very powerful."

She is really much better than her. Even in adversity, she has the courage and faith to never admit defeat, which makes her a bit ashamed when she is older.

The man in the black cloak on the roof squatted there quietly listening to the conversation between the two people in the room. When he raised his head, the white animal mask under the hood was revealed. He lowered his head and listened to the movement in the room again, making sure that the two people had passed away. After falling asleep, the figure disappeared into the night with a whoosh.

Because Mr. Morihisa said that she is not strong enough, in order to pass the test next year, Eri can be said to have worked hard, increasing the practice time to twice the previous time, freeing up some time to sleep, and to be serious when eating. Naruto read the scrolls, and accidentally ate the green pepper she hated several times. Naruto seemed to be infected by her, and gradually he would take the initiative to read and study, but he was still a child after all, and he would yell after not reading for a while. Ready to go out and play.

"Sister, I want to go out to play." Naruto threw away the book with a bitter face, and rolled around coquettishly beside Eri.

"You go." Eri turned to the next page indifferently, taking notes carefully in the notebook.

"No, I want my sister to go with me..." Naruto carefully looked at Eri's expression, "It's fine just to go around the street."

Eri sighed silently, then snapped the book shut, "Well, anyway, the food at home is almost finished."

Naruto's eyes lit up immediately, and he happily ran to the entrance to change his shoes and was about to go out. Eri took the money and keys and followed Naruto out.

Konoha's commercial street is still as lively as ever. Naruto looked around happily. When passing by a mask shop, Eri held Naruto's hand and sank. Looking back, Naruto stood motionless at the door of the shop, his eyes blank. He stared blankly at the fox mask.

"What's wrong? Want?" Eri shook his hand, Naruto immediately shook his head when he came back to his senses, and then looked back at the mask with some reluctance.

...looks like I want it.

Eri smiled and patted his head, "I'll buy you one."

Although she wanted to buy it, the owner of the mask shop obviously didn't want to sell it. He looked at Naruto holding Eri's hand with disgust, "Go away, I don't want to sell it to you!"

A hurt look appeared on Naruto's face, and he lowered his head and looked away.

"..." Eri frowned slightly, "Boss, it's not that we don't give money, why don't we sell it?"

"It's not about the money, it's because I don't want to sell it!" The boss glanced at the crowd gathered around who were talking and pointing, snorted, took off the fox mask and threw it at Naruto's head, "Forget it, give it to me." You! Get out of here quickly, don't hinder me from doing business!"

But the thrown mask did not hit Naruto's head, but was caught by Eri's outstretched hand, and then looked at the boss with a cold face.

The boss froze, looking at Eri's gloomy gaze, a drop of cold sweat dripped from his forehead, he was actually frightened by a little girl.

"Since the boss gave it on his own initiative, I will accept it unceremoniously." Eri handed the mask to Naruto behind him, "Let's go."

After what happened just now, Naruto, who was originally excited, became depressed, and walked slowly behind Eri with his head down and without saying a word.

"Naruto, don't you still have the dream of becoming Hokage?" Eri pulled him to take a few quick steps, and Naruto also staggered forward, "If you can't even overcome such a small setback, you won't become Hokage. Oh Hokage."

Naruto raised his head and blinked, then nodded heavily, "En! I will definitely become Hokage!"

Ahh, she is so bad, enlightening him with a dream that is almost impossible to realize.

No, it's not impossible, she should trust Naruto.

"Eri?" With a familiar voice, Eri raised her head, it was indeed Itachi, he was still holding Sasuke by the hand.

"Itachi! Long time no see!" Eri greeted happily, "Sasuke is here~"

Sasuke looked at Naruto who was holding her hand, showing a puzzled expression, "Who is this guy?"

"He's Uzumaki Naruto," Eri tilted her head and thought for a while, "Speaking of which, Sasuke and Naruto seem to be about the same age, so they should be at the same age, right?"

Itachi nodded lightly, "Sasuke will go to school next year, it should be at the same time."

Sasuke glanced at Naruto, apparently not paying attention to him, but shook Itachi's hand, "Brother, hurry up and practice with me!"

Itachi smiled dotingly, and said to Eri, "Then, see you later."

Eri stared blankly at Itachi's leaving back, what does it mean to see you later?Does it mean to let her go to the small forest? ?

After failing the ninja test, she has been practicing at home or in the school practice field. It seems that she hasn't been to the small forest for a long time. No wonder she feels like she hasn't seen Itachi for a long time.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Eri came back to her senses, smiled awkwardly, "No...it's nothing."

I don't know if Itachi knew about the fact that I failed the ninja test... It's so embarrassing, so embarrassing.

Coaxing Naruto to stay at home obediently, Eri went to the small forest that she hadn't been to for a long time. The trail that had been stepped on by her had obvious traces gradually grew some weeds, covering the bare ground.

Seeing Itachi practicing shuriken, Eri breathed a sigh of relief, "Itachi, fortunately you are here."

Itachi stopped and looked at her, "It's been a while since I saw you."

"Uh, I haven't come here to practice recently..." Eri explained cautiously.

"Why aren't you wearing the forehead protector?" Itachi quickly realized something was wrong.

"..." He still doesn't know that he failed...

Seeing Eri's frowning and uncertain expression, Itachi raised his eyebrows calmly, "Didn't pass?"

"...En." Eri's voice was as soft as that of a mosquito.

"Who is your johnin?"

"It's Mr. Morihisa..." Eri said hesitantly.

"Mr. Moriku?" Itachi showed a clear expression, "I heard that no one has ever graduated from him, and he is too strict with students and is often blamed by the three generations of adults."

"Yes, is that so..." Although she felt a little better, her strength was indeed very poor. So, is Itachi trying to comfort her?

"Come here." Itachi beckoned to her.

Eri walked over without knowing why, and Itachi put his hand on her head logically, and patted her lightly.

"..." Eri said silently, "Itachi, you really like me very much, right?"

Itachi's hand stiffened, and he immediately retracted it, coughing uncomfortably, "Eri, I have a task tomorrow, and I may not return to Konoha for a while."

"..." The skill of changing the subject is still so bad, Eri nodded, "I know, I will practice hard and try to pass next year."

"Come on..." Itachi stretched out his hand habitually, and suddenly realized the habit he wanted to overcome, so his hand stopped in mid-air with some embarrassment, and then Itachi quickly retracted it pretending not to care.

Eri's heart was already full of laughter, and she said with a serious expression on her face, "Don't worry, I will work hard."?
