The strongest teacher of Naruto

Chapter 104 Inexplicable voice (asking for a monthly ticket, asking for a reward)
"Phew~ It's indeed the most high-end hot spring in the town, and the 1000 taels is worth it."

In the smoky hot spring, Hong, the oldest of the three women of different ages, enjoyed it very much.

"Well...it's okay..."

Quanmei, who was leaning against the rockery, responded copiously. Beside her was a black cat. I don't know why Xiao Hei, who is usually very clingy to Iruka, would always be in Iruka's bath. Run away, and followed Quanmei and the others directly into the hot spring this time. For this reason, Quanmei had to find a way to bring it in. After all, pets are not allowed in the hot spring.

By the way, shouldn’t cats be afraid of water?Why does this black cat seem to like soaking in hot springs?

Quanmei thought about this kind of thing suspiciously, and Hinata also looked at Xiao Hei curiously, but the well-informed Hong didn't care much about a cat who can enjoy hot springs, and saw her mature face An inexplicable smile suddenly flashed across his face, and then he said meaningfully:

"Speaking of which, Izumi, won't you have any problems in life if you live with a grown man, Mr. Iruka?"

Hearing this, Quan Mei was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Hong who seemed to be very familiar with her inexplicably. To be honest, although she is both a woman, she still doesn't like talking to people she doesn't know very well.

"No problem. After getting along for so long, even if there is a problem, I have long been used to it."

As if she heard the perfunctory meaning in Quan Mei's words, Hong thought for a while, as if she was organizing her words, after a while, she didn't know what she thought of, a smirk suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth, she suddenly turned her head, looked Hinata, who was hesitating whether to stretch out his hand to tease Xiao Hei, asked quite meaningfully:
"A few days ago, I heard from them that Iruka-sensei seemed to like a girl named Iris very much, hey~ Hinata, do you know about this?"

Suddenly hearing Hong calling her name, Hinata couldn't bear the curiosity and immediately stopped the hand that was about to reach out, and subconsciously put it back. Fortunately, she has been listening to Hong all the time, so she won't be unable to answer:
"Ah? Oh, I'm not very clear about Sister Iris's words, but Naruto and the others said so, so it should be true..."

"No! That's impossible."

Seems to be particularly concerned about Iruka's relationship issues, Quanmei's originally perfunctory tone suddenly became resolute and firm:

"I don't know why you have such a misunderstanding, and I don't know what happened to Iruka-sensei before I met Iruka-sensei, but I can be [-]% sure that Iruka-sensei absolutely doesn't mean that to Iruka-sensei."

Young girls are always very sensitive to feelings. Although Quanmei has already possessed the strength of elite jounin at a young age, and has also experienced the painful experience of extermination, this does not mean that her psychology is completely out of the original growth track.

Quanmei has seen the situation where Iruka and Iruka get along, and she can keenly see that Iruka really has a crush on Iruka. However, although Iruka's eyes are a bit strange when he looks at Iruka, it is definitely not love, that is to say , this is just calamus' unrequited love, and has nothing to do with Iruka's own wishes.

Plus the answer she got from deliberately asking Iruka about his mate selection criteria just now.
Thinking of this, Quan Mei's face could not help showing annoyance:

"And I once asked Iruka-sensei's criteria for choosing a spouse, but that guy said that he is not interested in any women whose age difference is beyond two years. Calamus should be similar to me, and it is not in that range."

After the words fell, Quan Mei suddenly found that Hong Zheng was looking at her with a smirk on her face, and she couldn't help but said with some doubts:

"What's wrong? Senior Red, is there something strange on my face?"

Hong shook her head, then suddenly laughed lightly, and said with a bit of ridicule:
"Sure enough, when you mention Iruka-sensei's relationship, Izumi, you will talk a lot more, and, like Iruka...you are very concerned that your age is not in the range of Iruka-sensei's mate selection?"

Hearing this, Quanmei was stunned for a moment, and Hinata on the side couldn't help looking at Quanmei in surprise after hearing Hong's words:

"Huh? Izumi-sensei hi. Do you like Iruka-sensei?"

"I……"

An intoxicating blush appeared on Quanmei's face, and she subconsciously wanted to deny it, but at this moment, no one noticed that a red light flashed in Quanmei's moving eyes. The next moment, Quanmei originally wanted to The words of denial turned into completely opposite meanings when she conveyed them:
"Well, yes, I... I like Iruka-sensei."

As soon as the words were spoken, Hong and Hinata hadn't reacted yet, but Quan Mei's face suddenly showed a look of astonishment, as if she didn't expect that she would say such shy words bluntly.

Say. Say it?How come... what's going on?how can i
For a moment, really only for a moment, countless thoughts flashed through Quanmei's mind, and the chaotic thoughts made her a little dizzy, but no matter what, the words she said were like splashed water, reality is reality, she was in this hot spring , in front of two unfamiliar people, said something that she would never have said except if it was normal.

For some reason, Quanmei felt that after speaking out the words that had been suppressed in her heart, her spirit seemed to break through some kind of shackles. At the same time, she felt that some kind of change in her eyes seemed to have happened to her, and she felt an unprecedented sense of comfort. A cool feeling gradually spread from the eyes to the whole body, making her whole body tremble. The next moment, when that strange feeling receded like a tide, her body softened, and she collapsed with her back against the rockery. There was an unnatural crimson on his face.

She never expected Quanmei to say the most difficult thing in her heart so bluntly. Hong finally realized it. Seeing Quanmei's collapsed appearance, she thought that her courage to confess was exhausted and shyness came to her heart. Normal reaction, could not help chuckling:
"It's really brave, Quanmei. When I was your age, I didn't dare to tell anyone I liked. It seems that you are much stronger than me in terms of strength and courage. Even my senior has to I admire you."

Hinata on the side didn't know what to think of, Quanmei's eyes were straight, and a pair of peculiar pupils were full of envy and admiration.

Quan Mei, who had finally recovered from her strength, suddenly frowned, and thought about it carefully, but she couldn't recall the strange feeling just now, and then saw Hong and Hinata looking at her, knowing that she was thinking about those things that she didn't understand. When she was looking for something, she immediately shook her head, tossed away those complicated thoughts in her mind, then tidied up the bath towel wrapped around her long black hair, and said rather helplessly:

"It's meaningless even if I say what I think in my heart. Don't look at Mr. Iruka's usual appearance of not caring about anything. In fact, he is a very principled person. The things that are really decided will never be changed easily. And his If I don’t change my views on mate selection, I won’t have any chance at all.”

I don't know why, after Quanmei told Hong and Hinata the true thoughts hidden in her heart, the original strangeness disappeared inexplicably, and was replaced by an inexplicable acquaintance. After crossing countless steps, I became a friend who can now talk freely about my thoughts.

If Iruka was on the sidelines, he would definitely sigh: Women's friendship really makes no sense at all.

Looking at Izumi who expressed her thoughts angrily in front of her, Hong knew that besides Iruka, Kakashi and Kai and several other elites who could communicate with her normally in the United States were more than Iruka. Tolerance of a more intimate existence.

Thinking of this, a smug look flashed across Hong's face.

Sure enough, even if she is as proud as Izumi Uchiha, she is still a girl after all, and it is much easier for her to establish a friendship with her as a woman and a senior than with other people.

"It may be that there is a possibility of a turnaround before things come to fruition. In other words, before Mr. Iruka has no lover, you have a chance."

Hearing this, Quan Mei immediately raised her head and looked at Hong expectantly.

Under her expectant eyes, Hong chuckled, and then slowly expressed her thoughts.

As the topic progressed, Izumi nodded from time to time to express her agreement, while beside her, Hinata's face gradually turned red, and she didn't know whether it was because of the hot spring or some kind of emotional sign, but even so she He still listened carefully to Hong's words, as if he wanted to learn something from it.

The three of them who were communicating earnestly did not notice that the black cat beside them who was enjoying the hot spring just like them pricked up their ears at some point, and the round pale golden cat eyes shone with an extremely humane light.
