"Damn it... it finally came out!"
Walking on the streets of the night market, Qi spat out with guilt.
Leaving aside Uchiha Ayako who was already so angry that he was going crazy, Hyuga Hanako actually believed his own words, which was finally comforting.
At least, he won't be called a super pervert...
However, he also discovered one thing. It seems that he has gained some popularity in the village now, because after he reported his name, the first request from the other party was to ask him to use Ice Release once for verification.
"Strange, I don't know them at all, but they are very familiar with my Ice Release..."
Touching his chin, Qi narrowed his eyes.
"Is it possible..."
If Xiu and Tong did not do this themselves, it can only be explained that it was the intention of some people in their family, and based on my understanding of them, it is unlikely that they would be the ones to make such a joke on their sister.
Isn't that such a scam? Hyuga Clan and Uchiha are both standard and traditional blood successor families! How could those people who value their own blood successors more than anything else do such a thing?
"It seems I can only ask those two bastards..."
He murmured to himself thoughtfully, and before he knew it, he had walked into a shop.
"Welcome, guest!"
A heroic voice came, interrupting his thoughts. He looked up and saw an uncle looking at him happily.
"This is your first time here. Do you want me to introduce the features of our store to you?"
Um... when did he come in? He was still on the street just now. I didn't expect that my wandering personality has become so serious...
"Haha, since the guest is silent, I will assume that you agree!"
This uncle was really familiar. Seeing Qi's confused look, he stepped forward with a laugh and pulled Qi, who was still standing there, to the front of the stage and sat with other guests.
"Well, how about a bowl of noodle soup first?"
The uncle turned back to the stage, turned his back to Qi and asked with a smile. At the same time, he started moving his hands. Obviously, he didn't need Qi's answer.
Soon, the steaming hot noodle soup was placed in front of Qi.
"..."
Silently, Qi picked up a pair of chopsticks and stirred the noodles in the soup.
Really... it's exactly the same...
He picked up the noodles with chopsticks and took a bite. There was no difference in taste, which almost made him burst into tears.
Even after more than ten years of time, those memories and feelings rooted deep in my heart will never be forgotten...
"How are you, customer? Does it taste good?"
The uncle asked with a smile, seemingly satisfied with Qi's expression.
"This is the best noodle soup I've ever had."
Qi sighed sincerely,
"I thought I would never eat again..."
"Haha, as long as you like it, you can come."
The uncle suddenly beamed,
"For the sake of our customers who know how to appreciate delicious food, this time our store will let you consume it for free!"
"Thank you, uncle."
Qi gently wiped the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and a tear drew an arc in the air and disappeared before falling to the ground.
"It's been many years since it's been this warm. It's no exaggeration to say that it's the best place to eat!"
He stood up and looked at the uncle in front of him,
"Thanks for the hospitality, but it's time for me to go back."
"Oh? It's great that you gave our store such a high evaluation, but it's not good to waste food."
The uncle's eyes flickered,
"You have to finish the food properly."
"Is there any food here for me to waste?"
Qi sneered, and there was no memory or warmth in his eyes, but only naked indifference and murderous intent.
"If I use ninjutsu here, how many people can I kill?"
In an instant, all the surrounding sounds disappeared, and the guests and waiters around Qi all looked at him with a "snap" sound. They were all expressionless, and their eyes were lifeless, as if they were dead.
"Guest, what are you doing? Although you are a ninja, you can't be so unreasonable. This time it's free."
The uncle was still the same uncle, but he looked at Qi in surprise at this moment, and there was grievance in his voice...
"..."
Qi's face became even more indifferent. He gently raised his hand, and a trace of cold air emerged from his whole body...
The uncle's expression remained unchanged. He was just like an ordinary person. He even showed a look of fear and muttered.
"How could this be possible? How could this be possible? I invited you to dinner out of kindness..."
Faced with such a performance, Qi's face only became more indifferent, and the cold air on his body became stronger...
When the coldness had accumulated to a certain level, the uncle finally let out a long sigh. In his eyes, there was no longer anything comparable to "ordinary people".
"Children today... are really amazing..."
He smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head,
"I just showed off the girl, and now I want to attack the old man again, tsk tsk..."
These words made Qi's body stiffen suddenly, and at the same time, the murderous intention dissipated like running water, but the coldness around his body did not decrease.
"Hyuga Clan? Uchiha?"
He looked at the man in front of him and asked word for word.
"Haha, Hyuga Clan can't use illusions like mine."
The uncle looked at Qi with a half-smile but not a smile. His two pupils had now transformed into a pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and the scenes around the two of them were like mirror images, constantly falling apart and reorganizing. Judging from the reorganized parts, the two of them were now in a house.
"I kind of regret why I didn't give birth to a daughter, otherwise I would have let my daughter go today."
He smiled and said to Qi,
"Dismiss your ninjutsu. We have no ill intentions. We just want to have a good talk with you. Ah... By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the father of Obito."
