Why?
How could this happen?!
Under the scrutiny of passersby, the expression on Itachi Uchiha's face gradually stiffened. At that moment, he felt like a clown who'd been stripped naked in public—no, a clown wearing the Uchiha Uniform!
He had personally trampled his clan's honor underfoot, and this was all, all... That's right, it was all Gekko Hayate's scheme!
He'd deliberately approached him with false friendliness, making him think he was Shisui Big Brother, then made a fool of him!
Damn it!
As he looked at Hayate across from him, standing there on guard without a single opening, Itachi felt so aggrieved he was about to explode.
The passersby watched as they walked. Seeing that there was no more of a show, they quickened their pace and hurried away.
"Very well..." After using his vivid imagination to piece together the events leading up to this, Itachi Uchiha, a psychology graduate, quickly regained his cold expression. The deep nasolabial folds on his face made him look exceptionally ruthless and sinister.
After leaving behind a brief threat, Itachi turned and left without hesitation, leaving Hayate with a lonely and... utterly baffling view of his back.
"???"
Hayate wore a thoroughly bewildered expression. What on earth was that guy trying to pull?
It wasn't until he returned to his mansion and saw his "Shadow Clone" that Hayate finally understood.
"Did you just go see Itachi Uchiha?"
Hayate looked at the "himself" in front of him, his expression strange. No wonder Itachi had looked at him like a lovesick fool earlier. So you were the one behind it!
Shisui lowered his head slightly. "Sorry, I couldn't control myself and caused you trouble."
Hayate waved a hand magnanimously. "It's fine. I wasn't the one who got hurt in the end."
"..."
Was that any way
