Kind Uchiha

Chapter 299 12. Paper Angel

Snow-white sheets and thin quilts revealed a slender and thin figure underneath. His pale face was bloodless, his lips were pursed, and his eyebrows and eyes were quietly closed.No painful dreams, no comfort with a smile, just such a peaceful sleep.

Asaji turned the doorknob, and pushed the door open.

The nurse behind the gauze curtain was startled, and turned around to ask, "Who are you and how did you get in?"

As he said that, he was already holding the syringe tightly in his hand.

Asaji gently closed the door, disabling the transformation technique.

The nurse was startled, but no doubt more wary.

"What happened to her?" Asahi asked.

"What?" The nurse was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was asking the woman on the hospital bed.

"What does it have to do with you, you haven't said yet" the nurse was about to scold.

Sharingan appeared in Asaji's eyes, but the next moment, his eyes moved, and he glanced behind him from the corner of his eye.

The nurse still had a horrified expression of seeing a ghost, covered her mouth, and looked into his eyes.

The door behind him was pushed open, and Naruto walked in with a wry smile.

"You still found out." He said helplessly.

"Master Hokage." The nurse greeted quickly.

"Well, is she okay?" Naruto asked.

"everything is normal."

"Okay, you go out first."

"he"

"I'll handle it."

"Yes." The nurse gave Asaji a careful look, and quickly backed away.

Asahi had already walked to the bed.

The woman on the bed is Xiao Nan. After more than ten years, her appearance has not changed much, but she is colder and thinner, and her complexion is like an angel, but it is just before she is about to wither.

Including the paper flower in her hair, she looked dispirited.

"It was thanks to you that I saved Senior Sister." Naruto said.

Asaji let Xiaonan go, but it was not he who rescued her from Obito's men, but Chan, but Konan didn't say anything, Naruto and the others thought Asaji's "conscience was still alive" and did not kill her.

"What is she?" Asahi asked.

"She came to Konoha with a serious injury more than a month ago, but she fell into a coma before she could say anything, and she hasn't woken up until now." Naruto said in a deep voice: "Before that, Xiaonan had been living in Yuren Village, We also sent people to investigate later, but nothing unusual was found, which is still a mystery."

Asagi looked at him, "Then why are you keeping it from me?"

Naruto was silent for a moment, and said: "Just a while ago, when Sasuke was investigating the ruins of Otsutsugi, he found some clues, which may be related to Xiaonan, but because of Urashiki, he hurried away before he could confirm it. I'm back."

Asahi was still looking at him.

"You just came back, we are also worried about your temper." Naruto spread his hands, "I'm afraid you will mess around."

Asagi snorted, "Am I messing around?"

Naruto breathed a sigh of relief, "Hey, I'm Hokage now, and Sasuke is married, only you are still the same as before, who knows if your temper has restrained."

"When are you going to investigate?" Asaji asked.

Since Xiaonan has been living in Yuren Village, it means that he was attacked there, and maybe he can leave valuable clues.

"There are very few traces of the battle, and it is speculated that it should be at sea. There are still reconnaissance teams searching nearby, but the situation is not optimistic, and there are still too few clues." Naruto said: "Even the shadows are very vague."

In fact, Asaji knows without asking, that the shadow in the dark is the "shell" organization.But it is useless to know the title, and he doesn't know the stronghold of the group, and he doesn't even know anything about the other members except for the name of Otsuki Ichishi.

His 'prophet' has not worked until now.

"Is there nothing Tsunade can do about Konan's injury?" Asaji asked.

Naruto shook his head, "Mother-in-law Tsunade has treated the damage to the body and meridians of the brain, but the consciousness has not recovered yet, and the reason has not been found yet."

Asaji looked at Xiaonan who was breathing weakly and calmly on the bed, but didn't speak.

He has no friendship with Xiao Nan, at most he made a deal under his own deception and threats.But after all, she is also a poor person who has turned back. Her old friends passed away, and only she is left to live alone in the world, looking at the world for them, and finally ended up like this.

She struggled to come to Konoha, perhaps not to survive, but to send the news to let Naruto, whom she trusted and hoped for, know.

But it's a pity
"Actually, there's no need to hide it from me." Asaji said.

Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment, and said yes with a smile.

"You can let me know when you have any clues," Asaji said.

"Are you planning to participate then?" Naruto's eyes lit up.

"Yeah." Asagi nodded silently.

……

Naruto came with a doppelgänger, and after apologizing, he dismissed it.

Asaji left the hospital and walked down the street.

The sun is just right, making people feel warm, and I want to find a place to rest and doze off.

Now he has been able to accept parting and pain calmly, so when he stood in the sun again, he swept away the haze and regained his tranquility.

It's still the same place, Yile Ramen, no, it should be Yile Noodle Restaurant now.

It used to be a small place with five or six people, but now it has become a large store, with simple but elegant decoration, and the waiters greeted with smiles after entering.

Asaji sat down at the nearest table.

The back kitchen is no longer visible, and I don’t know if the hand-beating uncle is still there, but I still see Chang Pu, who is now the manager of Yile Noodle Restaurant.The once youthful and lively girl is mature enough to be steady, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes tell of the passage of time.

"Guest, what do you want to eat?" Calamus asked with a smile just as he came over, still enthusiastic.

"Seafood ramen." Asaji smiled.

"Okay." Calamus wrote it down carefully.

After a while, she came back again, holding her chin, and said suspiciously: "Why do I feel that you look familiar?"

"Really." Asaji thought for a while, "I should have been here before."

"Yeah." Calamus was still pondering, "I should have an impression of the handsome guy."

At this time, two short men ran in outside the door, a man and a woman ignored each other as if they were angry.

"It's Boruto and Zuo Liangna?" Calamus greeted.

"Hello, Sister Acorus." The two responded politely, and then they saw Asaji who was sitting there.

"Hey, handsome uncle?" The blogger asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

He ran over very familiarly, blue eyes full of curiosity.

Zuo Liangna tugged at the hem of her clothes, the original impatience on her face had melted away, and she sat down obediently and politely.

Seeing this, bloggers rolled their eyes.

"Do you know each other?" Calamus asked.

"He is a very good friend of Dad." Bo Ren laughed.After thinking about it, I still didn't mention Uchiha's identity.

"So that's how it is. I said, why does it look familiar?" Calamus suddenly said, "What do Boren and Zuo Liangna want to eat?"

"Yeah, a big bowl of seafood ramen!" Boruto shouted.

"Tonkotsu ramen, thank you." Sarana secretly glanced at Asaji.

After Calamus left, the blogger threw himself on the table and approached, "The handsome uncle hasn't answered my question yet."

On the contrary, Asagi stared into his eyes, as if he wanted to see something, but failed, Xiaotao was very cunning, and she was still playing dead right now.

"I'm hungry, let's eat noodles." He said.

"Well, do you also know this Yile Ramen?" Blogger said with a smile: "Dad said he loved it the most when he was a child, and I like it too."

"Me too." Asagi smiled.
