Chapitre 46: Chapter 46 : He taught me a lesson? ?
...
The mission hall is located in the commercial centre of Konoha. In the past, when Watanabe and Tsunade went to the grove to practise, they often passed by the door of the mission hall but never went in.
It's different now. Watanabe, who is wearing a ninja forehead protector is now qualified to enter, unlike the young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of him who was ridiculed by the guard as soon as he walked to the door.
"Maito Dai, are you here to embarrass yourself again?"
The young man with thick eyebrows clenched his fist and told the other party seriously: "I am here to take the mission!"
The guard rubbed his temple and said impatiently: "I've told you a hundred times that, except for the client who issued the mission, only ninjas can enter the mission hall, or they can be led by ninja companions. But are you a ninja? Do you have ninja companions?"
The young man with thick eyebrows blushed and was speechless.
He was not a ninja, and no ninja would invite him to be a companion.
"Please let me in, I really need to take on missions and make money right now!" the young man with thick eyebrows pleaded.
"I advise you not to waste your energy." The guard glanced at him sideways and he was unmoved.
"For someone like you who is not even a ninja, it is impossible for you to be sought after by clients. The right thing to do is to find a job and do hard labour."
"Even if I'm not a ninja, there are still some tasks I can complete alone!" Maito dai replied.
"Forget it."
The guard waved his hands, as if shooing away a fly: "Only a fool would believe you. Anyway, I won't let you in. "
The young man with thick eyebrows loosened his clenched fist. He was looking gloomy and lonely——
"He is my companion, so it's okay for me to take him in."
At this time, Watanabe's voice sounded and he walked to the side of the young man with thick eyebrows.
The young man with thick eyebrows was startled and turned to look at him.
The guard looked at Watanabe suspiciously, and suddenly asked in surprise: "Are you Watanabe? The one who got first place in the graduation exam yesterday?"
Watanabe was also a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that he would be so famous.
After thinking about it carefully, he was not surprised. Being the first in the graduation exam was equivalent to being the topper in the college entrance examination in his previous life. It was normal for him to be more well-known. Moreover, there were so many people in the audience yesterday, and they would spontaneously promote him afterwards.
"Yes, it's me," Watanabe admitted.
The guard was instantly in awe. The young man in front of him was much more than just the top graduate. From what he heard, he was the son-in-law of the Senju clan. He was definitely not someone he could afford to mess with.
"Of course it's fine for you to bring Might Dai in." The guard smiled, "But I have to remind you that Might Dai is not even a Genin. He will only be a hindrance if he is your companion."
Might Dai's heart was tense and he looked at Watanabe eagerly.
Watanabe saw the desire in his eyes, and combined with his previous conversation with the guard, he felt that he must be in great need of mission rewards to make a living.
If they were not forced to do so, who would be willing to go to someone who looked down on them and be humiliated?
"Don't worry about that. Let's go."
Watanabe said calmly, walking into the mission hall, and Might Dai quickly followed.
"Little brother, thank you for teaming up with me. You've helped me a lot!" After leaving the guard's sight, Might Dai immediately expressed his gratitude to Watanabe.
"It's just a small favour. You're welcome."
Watanabe felt that this young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes should have a generous personality, so he said directly: "Actually, I came to the mission hall for other things, so I can't team up with you. You can find a mission to take on by yourself."
Might Day looked embarrassed, thinking that Watanabe was afraid that he would hold him back, so he said that on purpose.
"Well, well, go ahead and do your work... Thank you very much anyway!"
Watanabe nodded and walked towards the stairs next to him.
Might Dai watched him the whole time, until he could no longer see Watanabe, then he took a deep breath, forced himself to cheer up, and he cast his gaze towards the crowded commission area.
The mission hall is divided into three floors. The missions on the first floor can be accepted by anyone below the level of Chunin. The missions on the second floor must be led by a special Jonin. And soon
The higher you go, the fewer people there are.
Watanabe went straight to the rooftop.
Pushing the door open, three figures appeared in the field of vision.
Both Higurashi and Hyuga Zero had their backs to him, motionless as statues.
Uchiha Chiri leaned against the railing and looked into the distance. Her profile was extremely beautiful and cold, her waist-length hair fluttered in the wind, and her two long legs wrapped in black stockings were particularly eye-catching. Watanabe instinctively glanced at her twice.
"You are late."
Uchiha Chiri turned her head and she said in an unhappy tone.
"Sorry, I was delayed at the door for a while." Watanabe lowered his posture.
"That guy isn't even a ninja, why did you bring him in?"
Watanabe was stunned for a moment, and it took him a moment to realise that she was asking about Might Day.
'Did she see me from the rooftop?'
"He wanted to come in, so I brought him in," Watanabe said.
"Stupid."
Uchiha Chiri scolded with a cold face: "You think you are helping him, but in fact you are hurting him."
"If ordinary people take on ninja missions, do you know how high the mortality rate is?"
Watanabe disagreed: "As far as I know, there are still some missions that are not dangerous and easy to complete, but the rewards will be lower."
"Do you think he will never take a dangerous mission? Stop being so self-righteous. You don't understand the world of ninjas at all." Uchiha Chiri continued to scold. She wanted to give Watanabe his first lesson after becoming a ninja.
Watanabe was speechless. After a long silence, he asked back:
"Teacher, have you ever been poor?"
Uchiha Chiri frowned.
Watanabe admitted: "I have been poor."
"When people are so poor that they can't even afford to eat, as long as there is an opportunity to work hard to make money, they will do their best to grab it."
When he first travelled to Konoha, his parents' pension was exhausted. Watanabe had to eat instant noodles every day and he had to sleep hungry every night. At that time, he even wanted to perform on the street, and if someone punched him, they would give him ten ryo.
If the situation had not been really difficult, he would not have thought of dropping out of school to find another way to make a living. Fortunately, he became friends with Tsunade soon after, and with her help, his life was no longer difficult.
Uchiha Chiri's face changed slightly. Although Watanabe's tone was calm, it made her feel inexplicably heavy in her heart.
"Teacher, you may not understand the world of poor people. When they need help, they really hope someone can give them a hand."
"So I don't think I did anything wrong. Even if Might Dai died during the mission, I wouldn't feel guilty." Watanabe said frankly.
How Uchiha Chiri views him is her business, as long as he has a clear conscience.
Uchiha Chiri's eyes flickered, but in the end she did not refute Watanabe. She turned her head and continued to look into the distance in the same posture as before.
Uchiha Chiri kept thinking about Watanabe's words in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was wrong.
'The world of the poor common people...'
'I was taught a lesson by him in return?'
Uchiha Chiri suddenly felt very unconvinced and she felt that she had lost face.
