Hokage's Strongest Teacher

Chapter 170: Attempted Indecency

“Intentionally, it must be intentional…”

Behind Iruka came a small voice, but the volume that happened to make him heard. He couldn’t help but cough twice to cover up the embarrassment caused by the accident caused by the sudden acceleration, and calm his inexplicably restless heart. , He took the initiative to speak to Quanmei:

“Na~ Izumi…”

However, as soon as he spoke, Izumi interrupted his speech altogether:

“compensate!”

The simple and easy-to-understand vocabulary immediately made Iruka’s face stiff, maintaining the Chakra that allowed the slate to continue to accelerate. Iruka turned his head mechanically, and then he saw Izumi, who still had a little blush on his face, looking straight at herself:

“It must be compensated, and this time you will never be perfunctory like last time, Mr. Iruka, please be aware of it.”

Hearing this, I recalled the feeling of being slumped after shopping with Izumi before, Iruka’s whole body suddenly became ill, but he was obviously not a person who bowed his head and confessed his life. In any case, he will try to make the last resistance:

“I really didn’t mean it. I thought this level of acceleration could be dealt with with your reaction speed. How did I know that you would fall as easily as an ordinary person.”

“In front of you…” Izumi’s eyes suddenly showed something familiar to Iruka, which made him stunned, and then Izumi’s light voice was transmitted into his brain through the tympanic membrane. :

“I will only be an ordinary person, dull, ordinary person without any vigilance.”

The violent wind that was inevitable under the rapid flight was raging wildly. Although Iruka used his ability to offset most of it, there was still a slight breeze of a slippery fish that blew in through the barrier layer, swinging Iruka slightly like a pair of gentle hands. The long black hair then flew towards Quanmei through the gaps in the hair as if conveying something indescribable.

The long black hair that was put down in a non-combat state swayed back and forth on Quan Mi’s impeccably perfect face like a misty veil, rippling with an inexplicable and moving breath.

And the heartstrings were touched, in this lonely sky, who else besides Iruka?

Iruka knows what that feeling is, because in the previous life, he felt it once in a young girl.

The concretization of the soul touch, the trembling from the heart, is the so-called throbbing.

Humans’ instinctive yearning for beautiful things is an innocent emotion, but for Iruka, the end of this emotion is the cruel and coldest——

betray!

In Izumi’s eyes shining with a certain expectation, Iruka, who recalled the past, suddenly turned around and faced forward, and then her tone suddenly became indifferent:

“Grasp firmly, I want to speed up, the village is likely to have something wrong, we must hurry back as soon as possible.”

Hearing Iruka talking about the extremely urgent situation for her as a Konoha Shinobi, Izumi’s face did not show the slightest urgency. For some reason, her face became pale, even a little stiff, not so much she I heard the content of Iruka’s words, it is better to say that she felt the tone of the words.

Quanmei gritted her teeth, her body trembled slightly, her face seemed to be holding back something, her tone of voice was trembling:

“I…I know…”

The atmosphere became dull for a while, and I don’t know whether Izumi knew about the situation in Iruka’s words, or she thought she understood the meaning of Iruka’s inexplicable indifferent tone.

The answer was completely blurred by the violent whistling sound of the slate flying at high speed.

After flying for more than half an hour and only five minutes away from the village, neither of them said a word. This dull atmosphere finally made Iruka feel a strange feeling.

‘I thought that after so many years, I didn’t care anymore. I didn’t expect to think of that guy’s affairs under this accidental touch. Sure enough, even if the touch became cold in the end, I couldn’t forget it…’

Iruka shook her head, but it was because Izumi inadvertently said something similar to Yumeyin, and her calm heart was shaken so violently. I thought that the bloody wound deep in my heart had healed, but now Iruka has I can clearly realize that the scar called betrayal is just a temporary scar.

As long as life continues, the memories that I thought I had forgotten will resurface because of the touch caused by accidental trivial things, and the scars on the wound that will never heal will be opened fiercely, and once again feel that it made him tear his heart apart. Pain in the lungs.

Being immersed in the past is not Iruka’s style. After the memory was selectively dusted again, his hazy face returned to his usual relaxed and comfortable after a deep breath, as if nothing happened in this world to him. .

Iruka turned his head and looked at Izumi, but the next moment he was stunned.

I saw Quanmei lowered her head and her narrow bangs drooped, covering most of her face. She couldn’t see the expression on her face. All she could see was the two shallow lines on her cheeks on both sides, which seemed to reflect. Traces of her mood at this time.

When I noticed Izumi’s tightly clenched fists and a small spot of water on her feet, Iruka suddenly understood something, and then he suddenly burst into a bitter smile.

“That tone of voice just now, it’s the first time she saw me like that. Although it was not aimed at her, it was still a bit too much…”

The previous indifference was just a mental portrayal of recalling a certain memory segment that I wanted to forget, and it had nothing to do with Izumi, but even so, he was undoubtedly the cause of Izumi’s sobbing at this moment.

Then, what to do is simple.

Iruka walked up to Izumi, stretched out his hand and placed it on Izumi’s soft hair, rubbing it lightly while feeling the warm touch from the palm of her hand.

“Sorry, Izumi, I suddenly remembered something unhappy just now, so the way of speaking is a bit weird, don’t take it to your heart~”

I don’t know whether it was reacting to Iruka’s rather affectionate movements, or was affected by Iruka’s rather soft tone, Izumi stopped the sobbing, and then raised her hand to keep rubbing the corner of her eye under the cover of her bangs.

I don’t know if it was an illusion. Iruka found that Quan Meixiang was suddenly relieved. Through the gap between her hands, she could even see the looming relief on her face.

As if she felt ashamed of her appearance at this time, Izumi suddenly turned around and turned her back to Iruka.

Upon seeing this, Iruka couldn’t help but smiled gently. Although he realized that he seemed to instinctively care about Izumi’s feelings, he did not reject this instinct.

“By the way, I didn’t expect you to cry, I’m pretty knowledgeable~”

“You can control it!”

Izumi who adjusted her mood a little snorted, but Iruka could still hear the tremor in her words, and when she was thinking about how to apologize for her unintentional passing, she suddenly heard that there was something in her. An emotional voice that Iruka can’t understand:

“Compensation! This time, you won’t make excuses or change the subject anymore? Teacher Guihu who likes watching girls cry.”

Hearing that, Iruka smiled bitterly, but nodded:

“Well, well, make up for the compensation, and treat it as an apologize.”

Hearing these helpless words, the corners of Izumi’s mouth with her back to Iruka suddenly raised slightly, and a touching smile appeared on her face.
