Chapter 41
The prices of these auction items were frighteningly high. Leaf watched with relish as the people below kept adding more and more money.
She felt that after she returned to Konoha..,
If she didn't want to be a ninja in the future..,
Maybe she could open an auction house. If Gui was willing to join..,
They might even be able to open an auction house that connected different worlds.
What a huge profit.
She didn't have any concept of money before..,
When she was in Konoha, there was her brother to support her. When she was in This Pill, there was a subsidy from the Government of the Hour..,
In Hell, there was the Ghost Lantern..,
In the Demon Realm, there was Haruaki..,
But after arriving here..,
She had to carry the banner of the entire This Pill..,
It could be said that it was very hard.
"Admiral."
Kendo Fujiro shook Leaf's shoulder, indicating that she should come back to her senses and pay attention to their mission target.
The man changed his sitting posture,
He seemed to be careless..,
But compared to just now..,
The posture and expression he was showing to the lady beside him..,
It was becoming more and more seductive.
The woman was completely dumbfounded.
Until the man saw that she was motionless..,
After frowning slightly..,
The lady came back to her senses slightly, picked up the sign beside her hand, and began to bid.
She wasn't skilled in using the beauty trap,
But who asked him to be good-looking..,
What flaws and loopholes..,
Under the halo of that handsome face, they were all ignored by the ladies beside him.
Beauty was misleading.
However, the auction item he was interested in was... a pair of eyes?
The ruby-like color reminded Leaf of the Uchiha in her village. However, these eyes were brighter than the red of the Uchiha clan, like a cluster of flames.
On the other hand, the Uchiha's Sharingan is much deeper, it's as thick and dark as the color of blood.
However, the Uchiha clan... she didn't know if little Obito had succeeded in opening his eyes. After she disappeared, would the child feel sad?
Thinking of the silly little Obito, she couldn't help but think of other people.
Ni-san, Kushina, Kakashi, Rin, Jiraiya -sama …
Everything in the past was like a beautiful dream. That dream was as fragile as a soap bubble, so Leaf didn't dare to think too much about it, for fear that she would accidentally burst it.
She couldn't go back, and the soap bubble couldn't be repaired.
He would collapse.
"General?
What's wrong? "
Kendo saw that Leaf had been distracted, and her mood began to be a little strange, so he quickly walked to her and touched her forehead. "Is there something wrong?
If you don't feel well, go back and rest. Your health is far more important than the mission. "
"Kendo, tell me, I can definitely find that path, right?"
"Of course, just like how we traveled through time and space to find you."
Leaf was stunned for a moment before she bent her eyebrows.
"Hey, after we go back, if there is still no news from Gui Gui, accompany me to the Yellow Springs."
"As you wish."
"Hey ~ Little Leaf ~ I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've changed lovers again ~ This little bean doesn't know much about romance ~"
An abrupt voice suddenly interrupted the conversation between the master and servant.
Kendo quickly drew his sword and blocked in front of Leaf with a dangerous look. "Who is it!"
"Uh-huh ~" Sisso carefully looked at the boy's configuration, and after thinking about it, he suddenly realized. "You ~ collected a lot of this type of men?"
Not all the swords and sabers had seen Xi Suo before. Most of the swords and sabers had only heard of his name but never seen him. Yao Yan was one of them.
But when he saw the boy suddenly take out a poker card from his pocket, and connected it to the pattern on the boy's face, he instantly understood.
This should be the perverted clown.
"Kendo, don't worry, put away your sword."
"Uh-huh ~"
Leaf sat up from the soft couch by the window, tilted her head, and looked straight at Sisso. In her hand was a poker card that was exactly the same as the one in Sisso's hand.
Kendo looked back and saw that the hair in front of the general's forehead was shorter. His heart suddenly clenched, and a sense of self-blame hit him in the face.
"When did this —!"
He didn't even know when the boy attacked the general!
"Don't worry."
Leaf patted his back, wanting him to relax a little, but unexpectedly saw the water in his eyes. If it wasn't for the fact that there were outsiders around, he probably would have cried.
These children are the perfect combination of weak and strong. If they want to kill people, they will kill people, and if they want to cry, they will cry.
"Sisso, don't mess around."
Another voice came from the door of the private room. Leaf glanced sideways and saw a freshly dressed Culolo, and behind him was the auction house's bodyguard who was lying on the ground.
Culolo entered uninvited and conveniently closed the door. The moment the door closed, Leaf clearly saw a big guy dragging the unconscious bodyguard away.
Leaf didn't say anything. She just reached out and pulled Kendo, who was standing in front of her, to the soft couch. Then she smoothly put the sword in his hand back into the scabbard, and said, "Let's watch together?
It wasn't easy for me to get in here, wouldn't it be a pity if I don't watch? "
There was only a soft couch by the window in the private room, but there were many chairs. So Culolo pulled a chair and sat beside Leaf, and even poured himself a cup of tea.
Sisso wasn't interested in watching the spectacle below, so he sat on the ground and played with his poker cards. But after playing for a while, he would raise his head and stare at the red-haired man on the first floor and giggle.
The atmosphere in the room seemed calm, but how many undercurrents were surging in private, only the people involved knew.
It wasn't until the auctioneer announced that there were only three items left for today's auction that Leaf threw the poker cards in her hand to Sisso, and it happened to smash the pyramid he had just stacked up, causing his big face to bulge like a bun.
He looked quite cute, but Leaf didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she kept feeling that his face was falling because of his movements.
Speaking of which, his face should be painted, right?
"Are you here to kill him?" She asked.
Although she didn't say it explicitly, Culolo and Sisso weren't stupid people, so they naturally knew who she was referring to.
"No."
Culolo put down the cup, and then, out of nowhere, a rose appeared and played with it in his hand, "Today, we're here to win the heart of a young lady."
"Heart ~"
Caeso didn't understand what was going on and imitated him. Ku Luoluo didn't pay attention to him and continued, "What about Miss Ye? Why are you here?"
"That gentleman's ex-girlfriend hopes that he can return."
Leaf raised her chin, and glanced at 'Sisso' who was on the first floor, and said, "I say, Sisso, as an exchange for me introducing Culolo to you, after I finish this task, you can do whatever you want with him, how about it?"
Culolo's expression froze, which was rare.
This guy, Sisso, was actually introduced by Leaf?
What did she do?
An employment agency?
And she actually said it so openly in front of him. Culolo didn't believe that this person would easily offend 'Spider' without a trump card.
It was impossible that she didn't know who Sisso was. Perhaps because she knew, she led him to 'Spider'.
This person's background and past, even chivalrous experts couldn't find out. It was as if she appeared out of thin air, and the men around her …
Interesting.
"But Culolo doesn't want to fight with me ~ Little Leaf ~"
Leaf felt that the other party's' mind 'suddenly expanded, and he was trying to squeeze downstairs. His goal was very clear, and it was obvious that he wanted to use this opportunity to extort money from Leaf.
"I know, when this is over, I'll fight with you."
"Oh, oh, oh ~ ~"
His eyes suddenly lit up, and the light in his squinted eyes could almost blind Leaf.
"It's a promise ~ Let's pinky swear ~"
He stretched out his pinky, and after Leaf hooked her pinky, he softly sang, "Pinky swear ~ Promise ~ Whoever breaks his promise will drink a thousand needles ~"
"… What everyone is about to see next is the last item of this auction!
That is what everyone has been waiting for – the heart of a mermaid!
A medicine that cures all diseases, a sacred item that can prolong one's life! "
After Sisso finished singing that strange nursery rhyme, the auctioneer's passionate voice came from outside the window.
The heart of a mermaid, Leaf's first reaction was that this auction house really liked to auction organs. Secondly, Culolo just said that they were here to win the heart of a young lady … Was it this' heart '?
"Culolo's goal?"
"Yes."
"Do you have enough money?
Do you need me to lend you some? "
"Hmm?"
Culolo smiled, as if he had heard a very funny joke, "When bandits want something, they don't need money, Miss Leaf."
"…"
This person was really damn good-looking, especially today's pure youth attire. Leaf felt that if the men around her were not good enough, she would have been fascinated by him.
"Ah, we're going to move, Sisso."
After saying that, the young man got up and walked to the girl's side. He removed the stem of the rose in his hand, knelt on one knee, and gently inserted the flower into the girl's ear. He also helped her tidy up the loose hair around her ear.
"You're very beautiful, it's not half as beautiful as you."
"… Thank you."
"Goodbye, Miss Leaf."
"Goodbye."
Kendo silently sat at Leaf's feet, looking at his general's flushed face after the young man left. Two words suddenly appeared in his heart.
It's over!
