After a day of training, Shisui took the initiative to invite Obito to walk back to the Uchiha Clan Compound together.
On the way, Shisui asked, "Obito, are you going to the clan meeting at eight tonight?"

"A clan meeting? I would've forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. Elder Yashiro came to tell me yesterday." Only then did Obito remember that there was a clan meeting tonight.
"I don't really want to go. It sounds boring. I'd rather spend that time training a little longer," Obito replied.
