Konoha's Master of Illusion

Chapter 3 Graduation Dinner
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Tetsuya got his own ninja forehead protector.

A brand new ninja forehead protector means that the holder has been recognized by the organization "Konoha Ninja Village" and has become an official ninja with multiple responsibilities, a member of one of the most powerful violent organizations in the world.

The young man who returned home tied a forehead protector to his forehead and looked at it through the mirror. His slightly handsome face changed several expressions, and then he fiddled with the black hair hanging in front of his forehead a few times to try to look more pleasing to the eye.

"Tetsuya, why are you dawdling? Hurry up and leave!"

In front of the flower shop downstairs, Ino, who had changed into new clothes and put on a forehead protector, urged impatiently.

There are three other people beside her, namely Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Choji, as well as good sister Haruno Sakura.Obviously this was a celebration held for a successful graduation. Counting Tetsuya, a total of five people attended, four of whom were Ino's close friends.

In fact, Tetsuya was a little resistant to this kind of dinner party, but Ino showed her unique ability as a girl, dragging him along life or death.

It is worth mentioning that except for Choji and Tetsuya, the remaining three people have different understandings of how to wear forehead protectors. Sakura wears it as a headband in front of her head, and Shikamaru simply ties it under his right shoulder. , Ino directly tied it around his waist.

In short, it doesn’t matter which part can be protected, what matters is that it looks good.

After Tetsuya came down, Dingci was the first to jump up: "Woohoo! Let's go quickly!"

His tonnage gave Tetsuya the illusion that the ground was shaking.

Shikamaru looked impatient:
"Chouji, our pocket money is limited, you have to be more careful, at least don't end up owing the boss a sum of money like last time."

"Ah? What are you talking about?" Dingci pretended not to hear clearly and took the lead.

Shikamaru sighed helplessly and followed.

Ino and Sakura held hands and were glued to each other. Tetsuya followed slowly a few steps behind, chatting, and arrived at the destination after ten minutes of walking.

One of the largest restaurants in Konoha, the Akimichi Clan's Golden Den is famous for its wide variety of barbecue dishes.

I asked for a private room and several people filed in.

Choji glanced at the menu with bright eyes, and then started to tick the boxes with a brush. At the same time, the waiter brought a large can of ice-cold juice drink. Tetsuya, who finally sat down, took it and opened the glasses and filled them one by one.

Ino held the menu in hand and discussed with Sakura who was sitting next to her:
"Would you like to order a bottle of sake?"

Ino's bold idea instantly aroused another side of Sakura's heart, and she agreed with this idea almost immediately in her heart, but on the surface the girl still said very reservedly:

"No, we're not adults yet."

"Sakura, you are too timid!" Ino made a sound of contempt, and then looked at Tetsuya: "How about Tetsuya, would you like to order a pot, let's share the drink, there are five of us."

Zhe also knew in his heart what this guy was planning.

Obviously, if he agreed and was discovered by adults later, Ino would put the blame on him: "I didn't want to drink, but seeing that guy Tetsuya ordering wine, I was curious and took a sip. Besides, everyone drank. Well, I’m not the only one who made mistakes.”

This kind of childish calculation makes people laugh, and at the same time it has a kind of cuteness that belongs to children.

12 years old is just a half-grown kid after all.

"Okay, as you like"

Drinking a little alcohol is not a big deal. As long as you are not an alcoholic or even alcohol dependent, drinking a little bit will definitely not affect your health.Although several of them are still children in their early 12s, ninjas with chakra are certainly not that fragile. Even after excluding extraordinary powers, their physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary adults.

Plate after plate of barbecue was served, and the fat made a sizzling sound under the high temperature.

Ino picked up a small sake bottle, poured herself a small cup, put it in front of her nose and smelled:
"Tsk, what a strong smell!"

"I'll smell it." Sakura also sniffed a little bit, showing the same disgusted expression as Ino: "This is definitely not good, I'd better drink juice."

Then she simply pushed the cup in front of Tetsuya.

People who have never drank or never drank will naturally not like the special smell of alcohol. Zheya raised the cup in front of him, and the faint smell of alcohol penetrated his nose.The alcohol content of sake is undoubtedly relatively low, probably higher than that of beer, but far from the concentration of liquor.

Zhe also doesn't drink, even in his previous life, but he does have the habit of smoking.

He poured the sake from the cup into his mouth in one gulp, frowned and swallowed it with difficulty, then picked up the chopsticks and picked up a thin piece of barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth, resisting the urge to cough.

On the other side, Ino had already started to pour the second cup, and called to Choji and Shikamaru on the other side:
"Would you like to have a drink too!"

Choji ignored it at all and focused on spreading the large pieces of pork belly flat on the iron net. The slightest smoke could not make him blink and avoid it.

Shikamaru was also lack of interest, and slowly chewed the beef in his mouth listlessly and responded:

"I'm a good boy. I'll drink secretly for a few more years."

Ino turned his attention to Tetsuya again.

Zheya could only shake his head at this:

"I hate the taste of wine, you can drink it yourself if you want."

Ino suddenly felt bored. She had heard that drinking with friends was the only way to be happy.

"Hey, Sakura, would you like to have a drink with me?"

"No! It smells bad!"

"What's the use of just smelling it with your nose? It doesn't smell good to me, but I feel surprisingly good after drinking it. Come on, you won't lose any piece of meat after one sip!"

Zheye silently stuffed his mouth again and chewed slowly.

It can be said that it is a great enjoyment to eat the fresh meat that has been seasoned and grilled. The secret seasoning of this store is also very good, which brings this kind of appetite satisfaction to a peak.

During this period, everyone was chatting and laughing, and time flew by.

And most of the small pot of sake went into Ino's stomach.

Apparently she had had a little too much to drink.

At this time, the dinner party was coming to an end. Choji, who had a huge belly, had almost eaten, so it was naturally the end.

Shikamaru and Choji took the lead to clear the way. Tetsuya and Sakura helped Ino, who was starting to walk unsteadily, from the left and the right to leave the bustling barbecue restaurant. When they came outside, they felt much more energetic when the cool night breeze blew.

Shikamaru turned around and waved: "See you tomorrow!"

Tetsuya responded by waving his hand on behalf of Ino who was not quite sober.

Putting down his hands, he started thinking about how to bring Ino back. It might take more than an hour to walk slowly with support for more than ten minutes.
At this moment, Ino suddenly broke away from their hands and said:

"I don't want to leave, Tetsuya, you carry me~"

When she spoke, her voice was drawn out.

"Okay." As soon as Tetsuya thought this was a good idea, he looked at Sakura and said, "Sakura, please go back first. I'll just carry her back on my own."

"it is good"

Sakura responded and saw Tetsuya squat down, and then a drunken Ino jumped up with a cheer.

Tetsuya, who was unprepared, was almost knocked down by her.

The most obvious feeling of carrying this guy is that the piece of metal on her waist is a little tight, especially because she is not honest, shaking left and right.

"Be honest!"

There was no other way, Tetsuya could only scold him, otherwise it would be difficult to maintain balance while walking.

"Hehe. I'm happy!"

Ino was a little more honest, with his upper body pressed against his back and his head resting on his shoulders.Then he started to act mischievously again, one cheek was pressed against the side of Tetsuya's, and he rubbed lightly.

"Ino."

"What are you doing? Aren't you happy!"

Zheye took a deep breath, but then noticed the faint fragrance coming from the girl's body. The touch of his face seemed to become more delicate and soft, and his face began to turn red.

Forget it, don't argue with the drunk person and send her home quickly.
Sakura, who was not far behind, had been watching this scene, and did not turn around until the two of them disappeared around the corner of the street.

"These two people. Could it be?"

Her cheeks, which were red from the alcohol, added some color.
