"Ah, Hokage-sama? Are you still busy at this time??"

"Well... there are still some documents sent by Shikamaru. I want to finish today's work today, try not to develop the habit of procrastination, and finish it in one go.…………"

Kakashi waved his hand slightly to greet Shizune who pushed in the door.

Then, without waiting for the other party to speak, she immersed herself in the busy work.

From beginning to end, the woman did not raise her head.

She was so focused on government affairs that she didn't even have time to smooth out the few strands of silver that exploded around her ears.

This made Shizune on the side feel both satisfied and distressed.

"Hokage-sama, we can't go on like this... Work is important, but you also need to pay more attention to rest. During this period, you have been working overtime until late at night. Your schedule is too irregular."

"It doesn't matter. I'll have nothing to do when I go back anyway. I might as well stay in the office and work a little longer.……"

"But if this continues, the body will definitely be unable to bear it. As Hokage's exclusive secretary, I am responsible for your health"

"Don't worry, I won't miss a minute of basic sleep time... After all, no one wants to fall ill at work due to overwork. After finishing this last bit, I went home immediately."

Having said that, Kakashi still flipped through the various documents on the desk in an orderly manner, showing no signs of stopping.

His eyes were clear, his movements were capable but not stiff, and he was faintly calm, just like a machine.

Strangely enough, since he was"forced" to take over the throne of the Sixth Hokage, a certain Shiromao has gone from being a well-known late king in Konoha to one who has a strong sense of time and is extremely efficient. She is a workaholic.

On the surface, her personality changes are very smooth, but she is the only one who knows the bitterness behind it.

Who would be willing to be a model worker if given the choice?(≖_≖ )……They weren't all forced by that bastard fate.

Why don't I want to live a leisurely retirement life in which I spend my good years aimlessly? ?

Work at sunrise and rest at sunset every day. Do not stay up late or work overtime and comply with the laws of nature.

When I feel really bored, I follow the example of the idle old men and women in my neighborhood, planting some flowers and plants in the yard that I can’t even name, and occasionally watering them and catching insects.

To be fair, such a simple life is not particularly difficult to achieve, right? ?

But why did it become an unattainable luxury when it came to me? ? ?

Kakashi was puzzled.

Looking out the window at the sycamore trees that almost blended into the dusk, she pursed her lips and smiled bitterly to herself.

However, complaints are complaints.

While complaining, work was never delayed for a moment.

Women know very well the principle of"doing their own thing in their position".

Kakashi doesn't have very high ambitions, and he really can't shamelessly shout some impassioned fake slogans in public.

She just wants to work hard to fulfill her obligations. She doesn't expect everything to go well, but she wants to have a clear conscience.

As a key generation linking the past and the future, Kakashi's Hokage inauguration ceremony was far simpler than expected. It is no exaggeration to say that it was the most low-key event in history.

Moreover, because the old tailor who sews the God's robe for the Hokage is getting older, the original completion date has been delayed again and again, and it has been postponed for a full month now.

Now, as the Sixth Hokage, Kakashi has no exclusive uniform to wear. He only has a hat and the words"Six Fires" temporarily printed on the back to barely support the scene.

Even when meeting important foreign guests yesterday, the woman chose to wear casual home clothes that were mainly comfortable.

Due to the lack of obvious features of his clothing and the fact that he was wearing a mask throughout the whole process, Kakashi was mistaken for the ANBU who specially accompanied the Hokage on escort missions, thus causing a series of ridiculous farces.

Tsk, I almost forgot...tomorrow we have to hold a three-party meeting with the Raikage Tsuchikage and the others on the content of border trade cooperation.

It seems that the speech is not finished yet... miserable(╥_╥), I have to stay up all night coding again tonight.

Kakashi rubbed his increasingly groggy brain with a tearless look on his face.

Because she stayed up late these days, dark circles under her eyes became a standard feature on her face. She looked like she was wearing smoky makeup and looked very haggard.

Her skin has lost a lot of luster compared to before, and she doesn't have time to take care of her long silver hair that she is proud of. It is always piled up in a mess. She doesn't even have time to wash up in the morning. She often wipes her face in a hurry and rushes to the Hokage without stopping. building.

There was no way, Konoha, which had just experienced the Fourth Ninja War, was short of supplies, was in dire need, and had countless problems that needed to be solved.

Such a situation is doomed for leaders to live in peace.

For politicians, the end of the war is not the end, just the beginning.

As the shadow of a village, Kakashi enjoys the power to give orders but also bears responsibilities.

Build roads and bridges, rebuild housing, resettle victims, expand diplomacy, apply for subsidies from daimyo, and appease the families of martyrs.…………All the above projects require her review and approval without exception.

Of course, being tired is the second priority. What Kakashi cannot accept the most are the various rules and regulations that restrict his"personal freedom."

For example... after putting on this hat, Tsunade and a group of elders forced her to quit the"Intimate Paradise" that she had been obsessed with for nearly twenty years on the grounds that the Hokage wanted to maintain the image of a great power.

This is undoubtedly a hundred times more uncomfortable than killing her directly.

Kakashi also resisted, but all ended in failure.

No matter how passionately she described the profound core of this wonderful book hidden under the superficial worldly descriptions, the old guys remained unmoved and stubbornly labeled it as a colorful book that was not suitable for children.

There was a hint of non-negotiability in both words.

In desperation, Kakashi could only bear the pain and abandon the treasure that had been with him for decades.

Nothing���Asked, the woman's heart bleeded at the moment the safe containing the complete set of"Making Love in Heaven" was confiscated.

For this reason, she was depressed for a long time, and she has not fully recovered from the blow until now.

………………………………

Tsk, I don't know if Naruto has studied the cultural classes I arranged for him seriously... I'll check the results in two days.

By the way...and Sako's side. Although the daimyo's pardon was approved, her place of residence after being released from prison was another problem.

The Uchiha tribe has now been divided into civilian areas. Where should the girl be placed? ?

We can't just let her continue to wander, right? ? ?

That might cause a lot of trouble, and we must find a way to firmly tie the leader who would start a revolution at any disagreement to Konoha.

Gee, that’s really not a worry.

Only this point, the two little guys have not changed from beginning to end.

Kakashi, who became more and more irritated as he thought about it, habitually stretched out his hand to cover his left eye.

She felt that the burden on her shoulders had invisibly increased.

"Hokage, come and have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself."

"Thank you~~ But if you can, please don't call me Hokage-sama. You know... I don't feel comfortable with that kind of call."

"I obey, Hokage-sama~~~"

"You... forget it, just pretend I didn't say it(´-ι_-`)"

Kakashi, who shrugged slightly and was speechless, chose to take the cup and drink it in one gulp.

The swiftness of the movement made Shizune, who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to see his true appearance, jump away.

The unique bitterness of cocoa stimulates the taste buds, slides through the throat, and finally flows into the stomach.

Although the taste is not flattering, coffee is indeed a highly effective refreshing drink.

After having a good drink, the woman suddenly felt much more energetic.

So, she finished processing all the remaining documents in one go.

After explaining the relevant contents of tomorrow's meeting to Shizune, a certain Bai Mao left the Hokage Tower first.

Due to today's extraordinary performance, it was not too late, and the nightlife had just begun... There were many pedestrians going in and out of pubs and barbecue shops on both sides of the street.

The moonlight fell from the sky like flowing water, coating the earth silently with a layer of silver frost.

Kakashi preferred the village bathed in twilight to the daytime.

For some reason, when passing by a flower shop, she unexpectedly stopped.

I haven't visited Akai for a long time. I heard from Xiao Li that he will be discharged from the hospital next month. It seems that he is recovering well~~~ I will have some free time after the meeting tomorrow. Let's buy some things and go visit him.

Kakashi suddenly thought and walked into the store.

"Ding bell~~~"

"Welcome~~Hey, isn’t this Hokage-sama? Why, are you here to buy flowers too? ?"

""Hmm... I plan to give it to a patient friend,"

Kakashi said straight to the point. The dazzling array of flowers on the counter was overwhelming.

Gently tucking her overly long hair behind her ears, she took advantage of the situation and picked up a pale flower. purple potted plant

"I think this flower is very beautiful...Boss, what's its name?"

��Do you mean the iris?"

"iris?"

"Well, the iris flower is named after its petals are shaped like an iris tail...the most common colors are white, yellow, and blue.………"

The flower shop owner explained seriously:

"However, Hokage-sama, the flower language of iris does not match the identity of the person you want to send it to. If it is a gift to a patient or friend, I would recommend carnations or calla lilies."

Flower language?"…………

Hearing this, Kakashi couldn't help but be startled.

She had learned some general knowledge about flowers and plants from Ino.

The woman vaguely remembers that different colors of iris have different meanings.

White symbolizes innocence.

Yellow represents enthusiasm, cheerfulness and lasting friendship.

Blue represents elegance and elegance or secret admiration. A small number of people believe that it represents the dissociation and broken passion in fate.

As for the mysterious purple color...if Kakashi remembers correctly, it seems to be love.

Moreover, it is not ordinary love, it is the kind of fleeting and uncaptured love, like fireworks rushing to the sky, grand but short-lived.

Like a moment of fragrance, more like quicksand on the fingertips.

So... can the scarecrow without a name just sit quietly in the rice fields as a dispensable spectator? ? ?

Kakashi's thoughts suddenly became a mess.

For a moment, the woman actually felt that she and the noise outside the house were in two completely different worlds.

Her world is empty and suffocatingly quiet

"Hokage-sama?"

"……"

"Hokage-sama? ?!"

"……"

"Hokage-sama, are you okay? Don't play tricks on me, I'm so timid!!"

"……Sorry, I just got distracted"

"Do you still want your flowers?"

"…………Um"

"Great, I’ll pack it for you now!"

"etc.……"

"Any other instructions?"

"Please, besides the irises, pick out a bouquet of violets and……"

"and what? ?"

"and a white lisianthus flower."
