Kirigakure Village

At noon, Wuxin's house.

In the living room, Wuxin placed the freshly prepared dishes on the table, served a bowl of rice, and was very hungry.

I don't know if it was because the food was too bad in the battlefield of Wind Country, or for some other reason, but in the three months since returning to Kirigakure Village, Wuxin's appetite has increased greatly, and he enjoys everything he eats.

On the table, there were braised pork, roasted pig's trotters, fish pieces, and a few stir-fried side dishes. Wuxin ate them with relish, and most of the rice in the pot was finished. If he hadn't thought about leaving some for his beloved ninja dog, I'm afraid all of it would have gone into Wuxin's stomach.

After finishing the meal, Wuxin scooped up the rice in the pot, mixed it with the remaining braised pork, pig's trotters, fish and soup, and walked out the door.

In the dog days of August, Wangcai lay in the shade of the porch at the door, a little exhausted. However, when he saw Wuxin carrying his own food, Wangcai immediately stood up, wagging his tail, ran to Wuxin's side, and rubbed Wuxin's legs.

Wuxin pointed to the doghouse in the yard and said:

"Bring your bowl and eat on the eaves."

Wangcai barked, jumped into the yard, holding his bowl, happily returned to the eaves, and placed the bowl at Wuxin's feet.

"What I eat, you eat, I'll get you some watermelon later."

Wuxin grumbled as he scooped the food into the dog bowl.

Wangcai didn't care about that, and when he saw the lunch, he immediately gobbled it up.

Bang! Bang!

"Wuxin, are you home?"

Accompanied by the knock on the door, a familiar voice sounded outside the yard door.

"Yes, Uncle Taro, wait a minute!"

Wuxin recalled the owner of the voice, Takeuchi Taro, responded, put the bowl back in the kitchen, and ran out to open the door for his boss Takeuchi Taro.

"Hey, who are you?"

When the door opened, Takeuchi Taro was stunned for a moment when he saw Wuxin for the first time, and asked a somewhat strange question.

This question made Wuxin confused. Wuxin pointed at himself and asked in confusion:

"Who am I?"

Taro Takeuchi looked Wuxin up and down, looked up and down seriously, and said unconfidently:

"You... Wuxin?"

Wuxin was a little embarrassed. He really hadn't been to Takeuchi Taro's shop for a while. He only met Takeuchi Taro when he just returned to the Hidden Mist Village from the Wind Country to report his safety and collect the reward for the sale of the treasure.

Then he was busy practicing ninjutsu and forgot about the work in the weapon shop. He didn't go there for three months.

"Uncle, what's wrong with you? It's just a few months since we last met, what's the big deal? Please come in!"

Wuxin was a little embarrassed, and at the end he turned aside and made a gesture of invitation.

Taro Takeuchi stepped into the yard, his eyes kept looking at Wuxin, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he said in a deep voice:

"You, have grown so tall all of a sudden?"

"So tall...?"

Wuxin was slightly stunned, remembering that the size of clothes had been much smaller recently, and he had been wearing his deceased father's clothes.

Being busy practicing and improving ninjutsu, and with no other activities, he didn't pay attention to these details.

I had grown taller, but I didn't notice it. It was only after Takeuchi Taro reminded me that Wuxin realized it.

Looking at Takeuchi Taro, who he used to look up at, but now only needs to look at him level, Wuxin, who was silent for a while, smiled and said:

"Hey, at your age, you must grow up, come in first."

After that, he led Takeuchi Taro to the living room and poured him a glass of water.

The weather was hot. After drinking water, Takeuchi Taro wiped his sweat and said:

"It's my fault for being careless. I forgot that you were still a little kid. You grew up in the blink of an eye."

Taro Takeuchi mentioned growing up repeatedly, which aroused Wuxin's curiosity and made him want to measure his height.

Wuxin touched his chin and said softly:

"I am a ninja, busy with missions and practicing ninjutsu, and I rarely pay attention to these things.

Uncle Taro, what brings you here today?"

Taro Takeuchi chuckled and said:

"Hehe, what else can I do? The store has been doing so well recently.

Customers who ordered treasures are urging me to place orders every day. I thought you would come to the store after you were done.

As a result, I haven't seen you for three months. You came here specially."

"I was busy practicing ninjutsu and forgot.

How many orders? How about starting work today?"

Wuxin did not refuse. After responding, he picked up the kettle and added some water to Takeuchi Taro's cup.

Three months ago, when Wuxin visited Takeuchi Taro, he received more than 60 million taels, plus 5 million taels for the mission.

Wuxin was actually well-off and had no motivation to make money.

However, he had received the attention of Takeuchi Taro earlier, and the two sides had a cooperative relationship.The duties that should be performed still need to be performed.

Although I work for three days and dry my net for two days, I won't just pat my butt and dump people.

"Today, that's the best. I came here specifically, and there are employees in the store to take care of it.

You don't know, in the past two years, weapons and ninja tools are simply in short supply.

I heard that there was a war in the ninja world. Wuxin, your treasure, those Mist Ninjas who bought it, all praised it. The orders are squeezed to more than 30."

Tarou Takeuchi was relieved to see that Wuxin's attitude remained the same. He talked about the recent events of the weapon store and responded to Wuxin's questions.

Wuxin smiled slightly upon hearing this and said:

"The ninja world is indeed a bit chaotic, with wars everywhere, and it is normal that the supply of ninja tools is in short supply.

However, it is too hot at noon. How about starting work a little later, around five o'clock, when it is not so hot?"

"Okay, okay, I should. It is indeed a bit hot at noon."

I don't know if it is because Wuxin has grown a lot taller, or because they have not been so close recently, Takeuchi Taro is obviously more reserved.

Wuxin smiled and said softly:

"Okay, then it's settled. I will go to Takeuchi Weapon Shop to find you around five o'clock. Then we will forge treasures together."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, that's it."

After confirming the time, Takeuchi Taro exchanged a few words with Wuxin, smiled and said goodbye.

After Wuxin saw Takeuchi Taro off, he stood in front of the courtyard gate, touching his chin, his eyes flickering.

"Grown taller? Come to think of it, my chakra has indeed increased dramatically.

I have been immersed in studying the art of rain perception for the past few months and have not paid attention to this.

It just so happens that my wardrobe really needs some new clothes, and I can measure my height by the way."

Wu Xin closed the courtyard door, walked through the streets under the sun, and came to a clothing store.

Wu Xin saw that the decoration of the clothing store looked pretty good. Wu Xin, who was rich and powerful, did not hesitate. He strode into the store and shouted to the boss lady at the counter:

"Boss lady, measure my size and see if there are any clothes that fit me."

The boss lady was a middle-aged woman. When she saw the customer, she stood up and greeted him with a smile. When she heard Wu Xin's request, she took a tape measure from the counter, walked to Wu Xin, and measured Wu Xin.

"Height 175, relax, I will measure your shoulder circumference."

Wu Xin was slightly stunned when he heard the boss lady's words. He didn't expect that in the past two or three months, he had jumped from less than 1.6 meters to 1.75 meters.
