Looking at Naruto's exhausted appearance, Sakura and Sasuke exchanged helpless looks.
The two of them carried Naruto to the bed
"Let Naruto have a good rest first."
Sakura said softly.
She glanced over the bed and noticed several open volumes of Scroll filled with complex Formula annotations scattered on the floor.
While she carefully rolled them up and put them away, she gently pulled the pillow that was knocked askew when Naruto was lying down and almost slipped to the corner of the bed back to its original position. She patted it carefully and placed it in the most comfortable position under Naruto's neck.
Sasuke stood beside the bed, looking at Naruto's brows that were still furrowed in his deep sleep. He nodded and said in a low voice, "We'll talk about the mission after Naruto recovers."
Given their level, they were tasked with catching cats, walking dogs, and escorting farmers.
Sasuke One person can solve it.
After Naruto settled in, Sakura rolled up his sleeves and started tidying up the room.
She neatly sorted the scattered Scroll and tidied up the living room and kitchen, her movements so gentle that she was afraid of waking up Naruto who had just fallen asleep.
At the same time, Sasuke quickly rushed to the assembly point to report the situation to Kakashi.
After listening to the narration, Kakashi narrowed his eyes in understanding. "Then let Naruto sleep a little longer."
He closed the task Scroll and signaled to Sasuke, "Let's go see the client first."
The two walked into the cinema.
When Sakura finally tidied up the living room and kitchen and packed up the garbage and put it at the door, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Get ready to go out to buy groceries and prepare some food for Naruto who wakes up and Sasuke who is about to come back.
She walked to the door of Naruto's bedroom, gently opened the door a crack, and looked inside.
The midday sun shines generously through the window, forming a warm beam of light that just covers Naruto's sleeping face.
His furrowed brows had relaxed at some point, and his face showed a long-lost, unprepared tranquility.
The cheeks that looked dull due to excessive fatigue seemed to have regained a trace of color under the care of the sun.
The room finally returned to its usual tidiness, the dust settled, items were returned to their places, and a reassuring calm filled the air.
And her companion, Naruto Uzumaki, who is always energetic and like a little sun, is currently immersed in this extremely precious deep sleep exchanged for exhaustion.
The corners of Sakura's mouth unconsciously raised a gentle arc, and his eyes stayed on Naruto's peaceful sleeping face for a moment before carefully closing the door. The soft "click" sound seemed to bring a perfect end to this peaceful time.
She left the apartment quietly, leaving the room filled with sunshine and tranquility to guard the sleeping Young Naruto.
"I'm so sorry..."
Naruto struggled to open his eyelids that seemed to be stuck with glue, and while rubbing the swollen Temples with his palms, he said vaguely.
My voice when I first woke up was hoarse and dry, like sandpaper rubbing against wood.
A heavy feeling of fatigue enveloped him like a soaked quilt, making it difficult to even lift his fingers.
'This time I really lost my temper...'
This thought flashed through his chaotic mind.
In order to master the mysterious Flying Thunder God Technique as soon as possible, he stayed up for an unknown amount of time as if possessed.
Shadow Clone went out to perform tasks, and there were several Shadow Clone who were studying together to superimpose fatigue on Flying Thunder God.
Naruto could cook at first, and then asked Shadow Clone to buy food. Finally, when he was hungry, he ate Bing Liang Pills, almost forgetting the passage of time, and got to the point where he "didn't know what the world was."
At this moment, the sequelae of over-squeezing his mind and body surged back, making him dizzy, his eyesight blurred, and even his thinking became abnormally slow.
'Next time... next time you can't fight like this again.'
He warned himself sternly and with a bit of annoyance in his heart.
But then another voice came out: 'But... that's Flying Thunder God!'
Just like Danzo cannot resist the temptation of Hokage Ceremonial Robe, Naruto cannot resist the temptation of Flying Thunder God.
"It doesn't matter, you can eat first."
Sakura's voice pulled him back from self-reflection.
She held a warm lunch box and placed it gently on the small table in front of Naruto. Her tone was as gentle as the spring breeze blowing through the willow leaves, without any complaint.
"After eating, we have to go find Kakashi-sensei and Sasuke."
"Thank you."
Naruto glanced at Sakura gratefully and took over the job.
The tempting aroma hits your face - it's barbecued pork rice!
After eating the meal, he felt that all the fatigue in his body had dissipated a lot.
Sakura sat quietly on a stool nearby, without urging him, just watching him eat gently.
Seeing that he was eating in a hurry and his cheeks were bulging, I did not forget to remind him in a low voice, "Eat slowly, Naruto, be careful of choking."
She carefully pushed a glass of water to his hand.
After filling my stomach and replenishing my physical strength, Naruto felt a lot refreshed.
Sasuke leaned against the wall with his arms folded in displeasure, while Kakashi stood aside, his exposed eye filled with helplessness.
"What's wrong? Did the mission not go well?"
Naruto was keenly aware that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and looked at Kakashi with concern and asked.
"Hmm."
Kakashi sighed, and the sigh was full of the flavor of "it's hard to explain". He raised his hand and scratched his iconic silver hair.
"The client is unwilling to cooperate."
His tone was slightly troubled.
"The client is unwilling to cooperate?"
Naruto and Sakura asked questions almost in unison, with confused expressions on their faces at the same time.
Why is the client unwilling to cooperate even though he has issued the commission?
"We are on an escort mission this time."
Sasuke, who was leaning against the wall, spoke coldly, with obvious impatience. He glanced at the closed door of the back room, "But the person being escorted -"
"Refuse to go to the place specified by the client."
This is simply a waste of their Ninja time and efficiency in performing their tasks.
"Abducted?" Naruto frowned subconsciously.
The news of abduction and fraud that he had seen in his previous life flashed through his mind, making him immediately alert.
But it shouldn't be!
Konoha probably wouldn't take this kind of job.
"No, no, no, how could it be abduction?"
A middle-aged man wearing glasses hurriedly walked out of the back room, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"The following is Miss Asama Sandayu, Yukie's agent."
He pushed up his glasses and continued to explain, "Actually, we want to entrust everyone from Konoha to escort us to Land of Snow for filming. But Miss Yukie seems to be very resistant to returning to Land of Snow..."
Land of Snow? Escort mission?
Naruto's heart moved - could this be the plot of "Xue Ji Ninpo Tie"?
"Miss Yukie?"
Sakura's eyes lit up instantly, and his voice was full of incredible surprise and excitement.
"Is it Miss Yukie Fujikaze who plays Princess Gale?"
This is exactly the heroine of the "Princess Gale" series of movies that has recently been shown in major theaters Konoha to full houses!
She is a loyal movie fan!
