Hokage - Mirror Love

"Holding, sorry..." Tong broke the silence, "Is this something important, I will help you fix it."

"..." Eri didn't respond to him, she turned her head and turned off the fire, frowning to clean up the charred matter stuck to the pot, the irritability in her heart was spreading, and even the sound of cleaning the pot surface became harsh.

"Eri... Are you angry?" Tong asked hesitantly, "Well, I promise I won't move your things in the future, okay?"

Eri lowered her eyes, gave a nonchalant acknowledgment, put the prepared dishes on the table, and then took the bowl to serve the rice, which seemed to be the same as usual.

"You eat first, I'll go outside for a walk." Ignoring Tong's stiff expression for a moment, Eri went to the entrance to change her shoes, closed the door and walked out without looking back.

She still had no friends, so she ran out of the house on impulse, and stood blankly at the intersection for a long time before realizing that she had nowhere to go.

Although it was still autumn, it was already close to winter, and the temperature in the evening was already a bit low. The cold wind rushed in from the gap at the back of her neck, and Eri flinched a little, and couldn't help but sneezed loudly.

Sighing slightly, Eri walked towards the commercial street, just now she was so angry that she didn't even eat, but she was actually quite hungry.

"Ah, isn't this Eri?" Her head was gently touched by a hand, Eri raised her head and saw Shisui protruding from behind her, "Why are you wandering on the street at this time, have you eaten yet?" ?”

When it came to eating, Eri suddenly remembered what happened at home just now, and the expression on his face suddenly became unattractive, as if it had written "I'm not happy".

Noticing her expression, Zhishui showed a trace of curiosity, "Did something happen?"

Eri shook her head, trying to respond with a smile, but found that the corners of her mouth were too stiff, she pulled the corners of her mouth dryly, and Eri forced a forced smile, "It's okay, I just came out for a walk."

"...I see," Zhishui elongated the ending meaningfully, and his eyes gradually filled with smiles, "If you don't want to tell me, you can choose someone else to tell you. I will tell you secretly that Itachi came back yesterday, and it should be here now. Practice in the woods."

Itachi is back?Eri asked with some doubts, "But, his mission will take a month..."

"If you finish ahead of time, you can come back early, stupid." He stretched out his finger and tapped Eri's forehead, Shisui showed a gossip smile, "Speaking of which, Itachi didn't look very happy when he came back from the forest last night. Ah, did you have a fight?"

...Leaving aside that they never quarreled, the problem is that she didn't go there at all yesterday!

Because she thought Itachi hadn't come back yet, and because Tong disrupted her life, she didn't go to the forest for many days, but she didn't expect Itachi to come back early.

Would Itachi be a little disappointed if he didn't see her in the forest? He clearly promised him that he would practice every day, but he didn't keep his promise. Would he feel that he was a person who broke his promise...

Thinking of this, Eri also became anxious, said goodbye to Shisui hastily, and quickly ran towards the forest.

However, she was late, and when she arrived, the open space was already empty.

Eri scanned the open space slowly for a week, but didn't feel anyone nearby.

But similar things happened before, could it be that Itachi didn't actually leave here, but just hid in a corner and waited for her, and when she came, stood behind her to scare her or something.

But this time Itachi didn't show up either, Eri sat on a tree near the open space for a long time, and didn't wait for the person who would often scare her with the ninjutsu she had just learned.

It was already dark, and the forest was gradually shrouded in darkness. It felt quite late, Eri sighed and jumped down from the tree to go home. After walking a few steps on the familiar path, he ran into him head-on. The familiar black-haired boy.

It's only been a month since I saw him, and he seems to have grown a little taller again.

"I thought you wouldn't come." Itachi looked at her with no expression on his face, "I met Shisui on the way back just now, and he told me you came to see me, so I came to see you."

"Itachi..." When she finally saw Itachi, Eri pursed her mouth. The strong sense of security actually made her nose sore, forcing back the tears in her eyes, and Eri explained in a low voice, "I didn't mean to I can't come because I have something to do at home..."

"What happened?"

"This..." Eri sighed softly, "A person who appeared out of nowhere claimed to be my mother's younger brother."

"Isn't that good, you don't have to work so hard." Itachi sighed subtly, then gently held her hand, and led her back. Eri behind her noticed that Itachi was not angry with her , and began to ramble about her dissatisfaction.

"That's not the case, Itachi, do you know that even now I cook the meals, can you believe that a 30-year-old adult actually asks a nine-year-old child to cook for him?" Eri thought of The scene that made her feel stuck not long ago, "But that's not the point, the point is, he actually touched my bear!"

Eri has always regarded the bear her father gave her as her father's incarnation, Itachi is very clear about it, but no matter how good the quality is, it cannot withstand the erosion of time.

The bear had lost its thread where it was connected not long ago, and Eri sewed it up herself. It seemed to be fine, but in fact it couldn't be moved at will.Eri had complained to Itachi several times about this matter, and Itachi more or less knew the importance of that bear to Eri.

Eri was about to say something with a passionate tone, but suddenly there was a loud grunt from his stomach, Itachi paused and turned around, seeing the embarrassment on Eri's face, "...didn't eat?"

"En..." Eri mumbled a little embarrassedly, "I ran out on impulse."

"..." Itachi changed direction, "How about ramen?"

"Yeah!" Eri nodded happily, "Sure enough, Itachi is the best."

Ignoring Eri's daily good person card, Itachi said lightly, "That person is your relative anyway, since you want to live together for a long time, don't get angry so easily."

"... Oh." Eri turned her face away, and responded with some reluctance.

"If you still don't like him, discuss with him to live separately." Itachi turned around and walked into Yile Ramen.

The ramen was delicious, and Itachi was still with her. If she ignored the person behind her, Eri should have been very happy.

"Eri, come back with me after eating."

Hearing what the person behind him said, Eri paused slightly with the hand holding the chopsticks, and then continued to pick up the noodles in the bowl, "I don't want to go back now."

"Then when are you going to go back? It's very late now. It's not safe for you to be outside alone."

"I'm not alone," Eri looked back at Kiri standing behind her, "Itachi is with me."

Itachi raised his head and looked at Eri, a family member who appeared out of nowhere.

"Uchiha?" Glancing at the family crest on Itachi's back, Tong raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It's a bit surprising. Everyone said that Eri has no friends. Isn't this a very powerful friend?"

Itachi frowned slightly and remained silent.

Eri's tone was a little impatient, "The so-called everyone must understand me?"

"No way, because Eri refused to tell me anything, so I had to find out by myself." Tong spread his hands to show his helplessness.

Eri suddenly felt as if her chest was holding her breath, and she wanted to refute but had nothing to say, so she could only bow her head angrily and eat the noodles.

"Okay, come back with me after eating."

"I'm not going back." Eri refused almost subconsciously, and the smile on Tong's face gradually disappeared, "Eri, you are too headstrong, if you don't go back, where are you going, are you sleeping on the street?"

"Of course I have a place to go!" Eri retorted immediately, but she thought about it carefully but couldn't think of a place to go. She raised her head and saw Kiri's calm face, before blurting out, "I'm going to Itachi home!"

Tong was stunned, "Itachi?" As he spoke, he looked at the black-haired boy who had been sitting silently beside him, "Are you talking about him?"

"That's right," Eri repeated slowly, as if for emphasis, "I'm going to Itachi's house."

"You trust this kind of kid?"

"Itachi is not a brat, he is much better than you."

Tong's complexion immediately became ugly, "I won't allow it!"

"Not allowed?" Eri looked at him speechlessly, as if mocking him for saying such words, "I haven't been in charge of my life for so many years, and you only come back for a few days to dictate my life? ?”

There was a strong hostility in the words, and an invisible gully was drawn between the two in an instant, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Tong stared at Eri expressionlessly, as if waiting for her to change her mind, Eri also looked at him with a sullen face and stubbornness, without the slightest intention of compromising.

After a stalemate like this for a long time, Tong sighed weakly, then stretched out his hand and grabbed Eri's wrist tightly, "Be obedient, follow me back."

Eri's expression changed immediately, and she pulled her hand back vigorously, trying to get out of his control, but his strength was too great compared to her own, and her wrist was tightly grasped, with a crunching sound from the joints, A dull pain spread from the wrist.

"Don't...let me go!"

Tong tried to take Eri away with a cold face, but his wrist was grabbed by another strong hand.

"Let her go." Itachi, who had been silent all this time, stared at him and said in a low voice.

"..." Tong and Itachi stared at each other for a while, then let go of their hands in silence, and looked at her with cold eyes, "Eri, it is not a wise choice to fight against me."

Eri, who had originally disliked him, became more and more disgusted with him when she heard such words, and said with a mocking smile, "I don't know if it's wise, but before that, please move out of my house as soon as possible." Bar."

"Oh?" Tong said coolly, "Then if I don't leave, what will Eri do, never go home?"

"Hey, don't go too far!" Eri suddenly stood up and said angrily, but suddenly stood there, she clearly saw the sinisterness hidden in Tong's eyes at the moment. ?
