Everyone watched in shock as I Love You walked in front of the Saiki siblings.

Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi both stared at I Love You. Today was an important day for the transfer of medicine and puppets. It was inevitable that some people would want to cause trouble. This time, they wanted to use human pillars to cause trouble.

I Love You sensitively perceived the wary and fearful eyes of the people around him. He felt uncomfortable, but he also understood that it was what he had done in the past that deepened everyone's fear of him.

He quickened his pace, walked in front of the two people with his head down, and softly said, "I'm sorry."

Temari on the side was so shocked that she almost dropped her teacup.

Everyone watched in shock as I Love You took out two small clay gourds tied with a red string and handed them to the pink-haired boy and the black-haired girl.

I Love You was afraid that they wouldn't understand. "This is a thank you gift for yesterday's matter. Also, please forgive me, yesterday's matter …"

He carefully raised his eyes and shyly looked at the girl in front of him. When he saw her take the gourds, his face bloomed with a smile.

I Love You was relieved. He still cared about the eyes of the people around him. He looked around and left.

。

The people around were shocked when they saw this scene, but Temari was the most shocked.

Although I Love You was her younger brother, she was afraid of I Love You like everyone else.

Because her mother died because of him.

And because I Love You couldn't control Shukaku and often hurt the people around him.

If I Love You made her afraid before, she would still say a few words to I Love You. After all, I Love You trusted her more than anyone else.

But ever since Yakshamaru was accidentally killed by I Love You.

Tempura, on the other hand, was really beginning to be afraid of Gaara.

I Love You's temperament became unpredictable, and his whole person became bloodthirsty and aggressive.

He didn't distinguish between friend and foe. He only liked to kill.

Temju always thought that I Love You was her nature, until she accidentally heard her father's order — kill I Love You.

Tempura understood what I Love You was resisting — he could no longer trust the people around him.

Then, what was it that made I Love You change? Why did I Love You trust these two strangers?

。

。

。

While taking the medicinal herbs and healing medicine, he really ran into Grandma Chiyo.

Chiyo Popo is a serious old lady. She has her own unique views and views on herbs.

While Chiyo was inspecting the dried herbs, a group of people came over.

Chiyo didn't even lift her eyelids, "You have to carefully store these medicines. Many of them have conflicting properties."

"Also, don't let this water get wet."

"Put these on top. The texture is crisp and easy to break."

…

Under the command of Chiyo, everyone started to transport the medicinal herbs in an orderly manner, while Chiyo sat on the side and watched everyone busy.

"Hey, little girl, come here," Chiyo beckoned to Hoshi.

Hoshi blinked, "You called me?"

"Yes, it's you," Chiyo narrowed her eyes and looked at her, "You're Oda Shin's granddaughter?"

Hoshi walked over, "You know me?"

Chiyo's mouth hooked up, revealing a faint smile, "When your mother was sick, I helped her take a look."

Hoshi suddenly froze, mother?

Almost unconsciously, hot tears poured out of her eyes.

Although she had gradually forgotten those scenes, it seemed that those feelings had been firmly engraved in her heart.

"Come with me, I have something to say to you."

Her brother wanted to follow, but Chiyo shook her head.

As a result, the other ninjas also stopped.

"Before Oda Shin passed away, he gave me something."

Chiyo glanced at her, "He wanted to leave it to your mother — but your mother wasn't suitable."

Xing swallowed his saliva. Could this be the so-called hidden resource?

"Then what about me?" Hoshi asked.

Chiyo just looked at her and shook her head without saying anything.

Hoshi's head drooped.

"The previous you wasn't suitable," Chiyo suddenly turned around, her eyes were not tired like before, but sharp like an eagle, "Now you will need it."

Hoshi was a little flustered at this time, did Chiyo see that she was different?

Chiyo just took her through the maze-like corridors.

"You will only come this time, don't be deluded to remember these routes." Chiyo chuckled.

That laughter passed into Hoshi's ears like countless layers of echoes, shaking her a little.

These corridors were so similar, Hoshi felt a little dizzy.

She shook her head hard.

Suddenly a hand grabbed her collar, "Little girl, we're here.

Look. "

Hoshi rubbed her eyes, she didn't know when she arrived at this strange room.

The dim orange light, and the table in front of her had four red candles, the flames were dancing rhythmically.

On the offering table, there was only a worn-out book. It looked like a hand-copied book.

"You go and get it." Chiyo's voice echoed in her ears.

In Hoshi's eyes, there was only the flickering candlelight.

She reached out her hand and took the book. There seemed to be flames flickering around it.

But as if she couldn't see the flames, she clenched the book tightly.

"You're not afraid?"

The flames in front of Hoshi's eyes gradually dissipated.

"This fire is fake," Hoshi looked at Chiyo and blinked, "It's not hot."

"Your mind is firm, you weren't bewitched." Chiyo smiled, "This book is yours."

Hoshi laughed, she knew that this was most likely a test for her, and she underestimated the courage of a 21st century person who tried VR. She was not a real seven-year-old child.

"Let's go back."

Chiyo pulled her sleeve and led her back to the road just now.

Hoshi's face was bitter, she estimated that she would faint for a while.

。

。

。

"Brother?" Hoshi found that everyone present was looking at her, a little stunned.

"This old one is just returning an old friend's relic and entrusted it to her, it's not a big deal."

Konoha's people were clear, indeed, they also knew something about Saiki.

But Saiki noticed that the Sand Village's people gave Chiyo a warning look.

"Chiyo Grandma, your task has been completed, you should go and rest."

Chiyo Grandma snorted, "Throw it away after using it?

That's the style of the 4th.

Forget it, I, Chiyo, am not that kind of rebellious master.

I'm old, I can't manage so many things. "

Konoha's ninjas were silent.

。

。

。

"I Love You?" Hoshi asked Temari and found I Love You's residence.

But I Love You didn't answer.

She knocked on the door, "Are you home?

The community sends warmth. "

Still no answer, she knocked on the door again.

I Love You finally opened the door, carefully looking at the person outside from the crack of the door.

"What's wrong …" I Love You looked at the person outside the door, a little timid, he was different from the previous him, he was even more different from the girl in front of him.

She was too clean and too bright, but he was already dirty, and the blood on his hands couldn't be washed clean.

He had seen her before, at her father's funeral, he felt particularly happy at that time, why others could have such a beautiful life with parents' love, but only he was like that.

Now he simply couldn't face the girl in front of him.

"I'll treat you to watermelon!"

Hoshi looked at I Love You's pitiful eyes, he was still a child, but he suffered so much.

"Watermelon?"

I Love You was a little stunned, although he didn't usually eat these things, he also knew that watermelon season was over.

But Xing did not allow him to say anything, grabbed his hand and ran with him.

"I'll take you to eat fresh watermelon."

I Love You looked back as he ran, it turned out that the people on the street had all run back to their houses, showing expressions of disgust and fear, the sunlight suddenly became too dazzling.

I Love You didn't need Hoshi to run with him this time, he ran faster and faster, as if he could escape that kind of gaze.

‘

I Love You looked at Hoshi mysteriously took out a seed from his pocket and buried it in the sand, then took out a water bag from his waist and poured some water.

"Wait a moment." I Love You looked at Hoshi and made a strange hand gesture.

After a while, the sand shook, and a small green bud emerged.

I Love You widened his eyes, watching the small seedling grow bigger and bigger, the tender green vines spreading on the ground, and the leaves on them were also dense, and flowers bloomed not long after, and Hoshi hurriedly paired the two flowers.

Not long after, a watermelon actually grew, but it wasn't big.

"This …" I Love You looked at him with some shock.

Hoshi picked up the watermelon and handed it to I Love You. "This is for you, as a thank you gift for your gourd."

Seeing that I Love You was still in a daze, Hoshi urged him. "Quickly try it, it's Saiki's product, it's definitely the best."

I Love You broke open the watermelon and gave half to Hoshi.

"Is it sweet?"

"Mmm …"

The two of them didn't bring a knife or spoon, and chewed on the watermelon with disheveled faces.

Hoshi handed I Love You a handkerchief, and I Love You took it and wiped his face carelessly.

"Are you going back to Konoha?"

"I'll be back in a few days."

"What's Konoha like?"

"There are many trees, and there isn't so much sand. Our rooms all have big and bright windows, and fruits and vegetables are very common, and there are many delicious ones. If you have the chance, you must go and see for yourself!"

"If I have the chance, I will definitely go."

"Someone's here." The sand around I Love You suddenly became restless.

A strange and hoarse laughter came from afar. "Little girl, you're very good …"

It was a strange man. I Love You had seen him a few times before. He was one of Sha Ying's attendants, but at this moment, he felt very different from the one he had seen before.

In the past, I Love You felt that this person was completely unremarkable, but now he gave him a very dangerous feeling.

"Let's go back to the village."

I Love You stared at that person. He just stood in the distance, staring at the two of them ambiguously. When he saw them leave, he didn't go forward to stop them.

"Orochimaru -sama." Medicine Master looked at Orochimaru and curved the corners of his mouth. "Orochimaru -sama, it seems that your new body isn't very suitable."

Orochimaru also laughed hoarsely. "It's indeed not bad — I've taken a fancy to an interesting child, she'll definitely be very suitable for me."

"But Konoha's people are still here."

"Uchiha Itachi —" Orochimaru sneered. "I really want to thank him, but don't worry, did Sha Ying respond to our conditions?"

"She agreed." Medicine Master Kabuto looked at Orochimaru. "But she still has some concerns."

"It's no wonder." Orochimaru smiled, but his eyes were cold. "Uchiha Itachi and I used to belong to the same Akatsuki, and I was defeated by Itachi … Sha Ying also didn't dare to believe …
