Chapter 31: Hidden Crisis
"Stop!"
"Pu ci ---"
A kunai fiercely stabbed into the heart of Uchiha Meinai.
In the next moment, the two Guardian Ninjas arrived beside Uchiha Tunan and placed the two Kunai on his neck.
"Damn it."
Shunkawa stood in front of the iron bed, his face extremely ugly. He roared at Ryochi, who was staggering up at the door,
"Hurry up and inform Lord Ryo."
Ryochi had just woken up from the illusion, and he still did not know what had happened.
After being stunned for a while, he immediately ran out.
"Hehe..."
At this time, Uchiha Tunan smiled sadly, and two lines of blood tears flowed out of his eyes.
Ignoring the bitterness that was hanging around his neck, he moved his head to Uchiha Meinai's forehead and kissed her gently.
"Meinai... I love you..."
At this moment, Ryo who had heard the news also came in.
Looking at the scene in the interrogation room, he was slightly stunned and said,
"What happened?"
Shunkawa hurriedly said, "Reporting to Lord Ryo, the matter is like this..."
After listening to Yamanaka Shunkawa's report, Yamanaka Ryo was also silent for a moment. He looked at the grief-stricken Uchiha Tunan and said in a low voice,
"Record your memories to me, all of you can leave."
"Yes."
Uchiha Tunan did not pay attention to Yamada who came in and fumbled to untie the metal ring that bound Uchiha Meinai.
Only the blindfold was not removed.
Then he picked up Uchiha Meinai's body and walked out with a blank face.
"You..." Ryo subconsciously wanted to stop him.
However, he retracted his hand halfway and sighed,
"You can go."
Uchiha Tunan looked at Ryo with a pale face, and said in a hoarse voice,
"Thank you."
After saying that, Uchiha Tunan staggered away.
For some reason, looking at Uchiha Tunan's back gave him a sad feeling.
"You can already use the Sharingan proficiently? Even two Chuunin can't stop you. This talent..."
Ryo Yamanaka narrowed his eyes and looked at the record in his hand.
"Let the Hokage make the decision."
After leaving the interrogation department, Uchiha Tunan did not go straight to the graveyard, nor did he go to the clan.
Instead, they chose to take a detour and walk through the bustling street of Konoha Village.
How could there be no audience in this kind of scene?
Along the way, the people around them were pointing at them.
The people of the garrison wanted to go forward and ask, but they were stopped by the Anbu sent by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Where is he going?" In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi stared at the crystal ball in front of him and muttered.
Now, Uchiha Tunan's situation was very bad in his eyes.
Sarutobi counted. In these short three months, Uchiha Tunan had lost his clan brother, parents, classmates, and girlfriend.
Kinship, friendship, and love were all left behind.
Any child of the same age would definitely turn black.
Even if they didn't turn black, they would probably be dispirited.
"It's hard to handle. Why didn't I think of it before?"
"I should've protect that girl."
"Tunan, I hope you won't let me down."
Uchiha Tunan carried Uchiha Meinai's body and sat down on the swing outside the Ninja School.
In the dark, several members of the Anbu were watching from all directions.
"Meinai, this is the place where we first met."
"Without you, I don't plan to stay here anymore."
"After this semester ends, I will apply to graduate early."
"Take a look."
Uchiha Tunan reached out his hand and gently opened a gap in Uchiha Meinai's blindfold.
"Under the blindfold, Uchiha Meinai's beautiful eyes widened in fear."
"If you don't die in peace, then don't look, lest you scare others."
Uchiha Tunan pretended to sob, took back his hand that was holding the blindfold, and wiped the tears in his eyes.
Then, he carried Uchiha Meinai's corpse to the cemetery for burial.
After the burial, Uchiha Tunan knelt in the cemetery for a night.
Perhaps because Hiruzen Sarutobi had secretly given the order, no one came to disturb him during this period.
After all, this was the time when Uchiha Tunan was the weakest and needed the most comfort.
It was also the most suitable time to take advantage of this opportunity. How could he leave such a great opportunity to others?
Therefore, when the sky was slightly bright, Hiruzen Sarutobi arrived behind Uchiha Tunan.
"Tunan, cheer up. Meinai definitely does not want to see you like this."
When Uchiha Tunan heard Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice, he turned and stood up.
He pursed his lips and forced a smile.
"Yes, Meinai said that he likes mature and steady people. I can't cry... I can't cry..."
As he spoke, the tears in Uchiha Tunan's eyes rolled uncontrollably. He could only wipe them with his hands.
While wiping, he explained,
"The dust... went inside my eyes."
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at this scene and sighed. He reached out to stroke Uchiha Tunan's hair and said,
"Ah, you have experienced too much and lost too much during this period."
"But you still have the village and me."
"There are still many people who care about you."
"You are still young. The village will protect you, and I will protect you."
"When you grow up, you will have to protect the village."
Uchiha Tunan was stunned when he heard this. He stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi with sparkling eyes and said in a daze,
"Hokage Sama..."
"Tunan..."
"Hokage Sama... wu..."
Finally unable to control his emotions, Uchiha Tunan hugged Sarutobi and buried his head in his arms.
He looked like a child who had been wronged outside.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked down at Uchiha Tunan, who was sobbing in his arms. His eyes narrowed slightly, but no one knew what he was thinking.
At this moment, Uchiha Tunan, who was pretending to be sad, was also thinking.
Was it so difficult to get the approval of this old man?
It seemed that up until now, other than his parents, the other children who were recognized were all inexperienced children.
This system did not give a progress bar, it was really a headache.
Just like this, a short while passed.
The red sun in the sky gently jumped and rose from behind the flaming rock.
The golden sun sprinkled on the two of them, accompanied by the fluttering green leaves, the scene looked so harmonious and natural.
Uchiha Tunan saw that it was about time, he left the embrace of Hiruzen Sarutobi, took a deep breath, and forced a smile:
"Hokage-Sama, thank you. I will cheer up again and protect our village."
Hiruzen Sarutobi saw that Uchiha Tunan was no longer sad, and his heart was relieved.
He immediately showed a kind and warm smile and said,
"Can you go to school on time tomorrow? Do you need me to approve your leave?"
"I have no problem with that."
"Has there been any difficulties in life recently..."
....
The two of them chatted like this as they left the cemetery.
They walked together to the intersection of the commercial street before they parted ways.
What happened yesterday had now become the gossip that the villagers talked about.
On Uchiha Tunan's way home, the people around him were talking mysteriously and occasionally pointed at Uchiha Tunan.
As the person involved, Uchiha Tunan naturally had no objection to this scene.
Anyway, in this matter, he was innocent and sad.
Suddenly, Uchiha Tunan's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he regained his calm.
Right in front of him, a pale-faced man with long hair and waist was walking towards Uchiha Tunan.
"Look, look, one of the three Ninjas, Orochimaru-sama!"
"Orochimaru-sama!"
"Orochimaru-sama!"
The surrounding passers-by discussed and looked at him with reverence.
Orochimaru calmly nodded to the passer-by who greeted him.
It had only been a few years since the end of the second battle, and the three were the pride of Konoha.
When Orochimaru walked to Uchiha Tunan, he asked,
Uchiha Tunan put his hands on his knees, and his eyes also revealed a look of reverence. He bowed to Orochimaru and said, "Orochimaru-sama!"
Orochimaru did not pay special attention to Uchiha Tunan, and just nodded like he did to others.
The two brushed past each other.
However, just after Orochimaru walked for a short distance, his eyes narrowed slightly.
His intuition told him that someone was spying on him.
He immediately stopped and turned around to look.
He saw nothing strange on the vast street.
"Was it an illusion?"
Orochimaru glanced around again, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, he turned and left.
Just after Orochimaru left the street.
Uchiha Tunan took off his cap.
Just a moment ago, when the two of them passed by each other, Uchiha Tunan felt a special and familiar Chakra leak.
He quietly observed with his eyes.
In Orochimaru's Ninja Bag, there was a sealed test tube, which was soaked with a pair of Sharingan.
Has it started?
Looks like I have to be careful.
I don't think he will provoke me.
"Little guy, you look very handsome wearing this hat."
"Thank you, but I'm afraid I don't have money to buy it." Uchiha Tunan smiled at the shop owner and put the cap back on the shelf.
