A sharp scream cut through the quiet night sky of Konohagakure, clearly transmitted into Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.
In a split second.
Everyone in Noodle House heard this sound clearly.
Aoba's expression was indifferent and without any reaction. He calmly took out a bunch of Dango from the box in front of him.
The first bite he took was a green Dango. He slowly chewed it and tasted it.
En.
Sweet.
The texture of glutinous rice.
It tasted like tea.
Aoba knew that the scream outside had discovered something, but the speed of this discovery was slower than he had imagined.
When they heard the scream.
Fugaku jumped up from his chair and then glanced at Mikoto beside him.
He did not say anything.
Just a look.
Mikoto understood what he meant.
"Go ahead."
Mikoto nodded. She was not a member of the Konoha Military Police Force yet. She could not cause trouble for her brother Fugaku.
"Okay."
Fugaku immediately ran out. As a Konoha Military Police Force member and future Konoha Military Police Force Captain, he could not pretend that nothing had happened when encountering such a thing.
Fugaku moved very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, he ran out from Ramen Ichiraku.
"I'll go and take a look too."
Minato put down the Dango in his hand and quickly ran out.
In an instant.
In addition to Teuchi, only Aoba, Mikoto, and Kushina remained.
"Aoba, aren't you going out to take a look?" Kushina immediately stared at Aoba and asked.
"I'm not interested in these things." Aoba shook his head and began to eat a second Dango color pink. He then said indifferently, "It's too troublesome."
"Mikoto, you stay here. I'll go out and take a look!"
After hearing Aoba's reply, Kushina immediately made a judgment in her heart.
Now, she could go out with Minato and leave space for Aoba and Mikoto.
The most important thing was...
It could satisfy her curiosity about what happened outside!
Perfect!
After saying that, Kushina ran out directly.
At this time.
There were quite a few people who heard the sharp cry just now.
All of them ran out.
Everyone went to watch.
People liked to watch the excitement, whether it was Konohagakure or Kumogakure, the Ninja World, or Aoba's Original World.
As long as something happened.
Everyone liked to do the most to gather together to watch the show.
It won't take long.
This matter will spread throughout Konohagakure.
It will become the topic of conversation for people in the streets and alleys.
In Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.
Mikoto watched as the few of them went out to watch the show. Even though she was quiet, she still could not help but have the urge to go out and take a look.
However.
Aoba was inside Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.
This was a rare time of being alone.
This made her very conflicted.
Of course.
Brother Teuchi could no longer be considered a human in her line of sight. He was more like an NPC selling ramen.
"En..."
Mikoto hesitated for a moment. She stood up and walked towards Aoba. She stared at Aoba and said, "Thank you for the Dango."
"I brought it for Brother Fugaku," Aoba said indifferently. His tone was distant.
This was not only targeting the Uchiha clan but also Mikoto.
He faintly felt that something was wrong with Mikoto.
This was a situation he did not want to see.
The more it was like this.
The easier it was to encounter trouble.
He did not want to have anything to do with the Uchiha clan.
"You... Are you blaming me?"
Mikoto's expression changed instantly. When Aoba's words fell into her ears, it became that he was jealous of Fugaku.
"Blame you?"
Aoba frowned slightly. He immediately thinks of what Mikoto means.
What did this mean?
Why could he not understand it?
For a moment.
Aoba was a little confused.
He was not good at dealing with girls.
Not to mention this kind of girl who looked quiet and introverted, but in fact, she was a girl who took the inner route.
This type of girl usually did not say a word, but their imagination was extremely strong. Sometimes, when she looked at others, she could imagine different things.
"Actually, things are not like what you think..." Mikoto tried to explain.
"?"
Aoba was stunned for a moment.
Even he did not know what she was imagining.
He could not help but feel a little regretful.
If he had known that this girl had such a rich imagination, he would have said more in the past.
No wonder Itachi and Sasuke were so good at acting...
Inheritance!
It was definitely inherited!
Aoba put down the Dango that had not been eaten in his hand and immediately got up and walked out.
"I think I should go take a look..."
Aoba suddenly felt that it was more comfortable to deal with the corpses outside. He could not understand the thoughts of the girl in front of him.
Before he transmigrated, the most he heard was that the girl's thoughts should not be guessed.
But...
After he said these words to Mikoto.
A strange thought suddenly arose.
It seemed...
Mikoto was clearly expressing her thoughts.
But Aoba was too lazy to guess it!
What does she think has anything to do with Aoba!
Instantly.
Aoba quickly walked out of Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.
"Ah? Wait! I'm going to take a look too!"
Mikoto did not expect Aoba to go out so directly. She quickly chased after him. She was even more sure that Aoba was dissatisfied with her brother Fugaku. She could not help but be anxious.
...
Aoba stood in front of Ramen Ichiraku's entrance and did not continue to walk forward. Instead, he quietly looked at the scene in front of him.
At this moment.
Many onlookers emerged from the dark and quiet streets.
These people should have been attracted by the voice just now.
Good fellow.
They didn't sleep.
When Aoba came out just now, there was no one on the streets.
Now it was full of people.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Konoha Military Police Force!"
Just at this time.
One by one, people wearing the Konoha Military Police Force uniform walked over. Each of them had a proud expression on their face, and their tone was full of undisguised arrogance.
Step, step, step, step...
At this time, Mikoto came out from Ramen Ichiraku. Her eyes fell on Konoha Military Police Force's team members, and her eyes were full of yearning.
"Is this Konoha Military Police Force?"
Aoba said indifferently. He had already seen the arrogance of these members that did not put anyone in their eyes.
This was definitely not something that could be cultivated overnight.
They did not realize their problem at all.
They did not feel that they had any problems.
As the Konoha Military Police Force members used a relatively violent method to push away the surrounding crowd and ignore the crowd's angry eyes.
Aoba looked at these small details.
He had already seen through Uchiha's usual style of handling things.
It had completely developed into a habit.
People could still endure it now, but sooner or later, they would not be able to endure it.
No wonder...
When Aoba watched the anime in the past, he did not understand why the villagers did not seem to react much when the Uchiha clan was exterminated.
Now he understood.
Perhaps many people wanted to see the Uchiha clan pay the price for their arrogance!
When things reached the extreme, they would always rebel.
Joy begets sorrow.
You can't do anything too far!
Aoba sighed silently in his heart. Although he was the cause of this incident, his perspective was completely outside of the event.
"My dream is to join Konoha Military Police Force!" Mikoto said proudly.
"Then I wish you good luck."
Aoba shook his head and did not say anything else. He turned around and walked back to Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.
He had never planned to come out.
He just didn't want to interact too much with Mikoto.
However.
Now he came out.
Mikoto also came out.
Then he could only go back.
Just as Aoba was walking back, Kushina also came back. She glanced around and felt that it was meaningless.
Compared to a dead man.
She was more curious about how her best friend Mikoto and Aoba were getting along.
She just wanted to hide outside the door and eavesdrop on the sounds inside.
But she saw Aoba leave Mikoto alone.
Such a scene.
Kushina suddenly felt bad in her heart.
She was very confident in her best friend, Mikoto. If even Mikoto can't make Aoba treat her with a straight face...
For a moment.
She felt that Aoba was even more abnormal.
The vigilance in her heart suddenly increased.
Just as Kushina was about to go over and comfort Mikoto, she suddenly saw Mikoto's delicate hands clenched into fists and asked Aoba.
"Aoba, are you avoiding me?" Mikoto suddenly turned to look at Aoba. Even she did not know where she got the courage to ask such a question.
When Kushina heard this sentence.
The fire of gossip in her heart suddenly burned.
It could be said that she was even more curious than Mikoto.
What exactly was going on?
Was Aoba an ordinary boy?
For a moment.
Kushina bit her lips and listened attentively, raising her attention to the extreme.
"En." Aoba paused for a moment, then nodded. He felt that it was better to make things clear.
"Why?" A big question mark popped up in Mikoto's head. She did not feel that she had done anything excessive.
"I'm afraid that Brother Fugaku will misunderstand!"
After saying that.
Aoba directly left Mikoto behind.
He returned to Ramen Ichiraku.
"Huh?"
Mikoto was stunned on the spot. Her face suddenly became very ugly, and her thoughts were the same as before.
Sure enough.
Aoba was angry.
She was jealous of Brother Fugaku!
Ever since Aoba saw her walking with Fugaku, he had distanced himself from her.
Although they had never been close before!
Mikoto stood outside the door, her mind beginning to wander, not knowing how to break this deadlock.
On the other side.
After hearing these words, Kushina suddenly widened her eyes.
In her ears.
Aoba's words.
It turned into another meaning.
"Could it be..."
"Aoba and Fugaku..."
"It can't be..."
"Mikoto is too pitiful..."
"I need to keep an eye on my Minato..."
Kushina was a little stupid.
As the saying goes, rotten eyes look at people's words from different perspectives.
After hearing Aoba's normal "I'm afraid that Fugaku will misunderstand", what she thought was not that Aoba did not want to disturb Fugaku and Mikoto's life, but that Mikoto would disturb him and Fugaku's life.
It was precisely because of this preconceived concept.
When she saw Mikoto standing foolishly at the entrance.
In an instant, she mistakenly thought that Mikoto had changed from a sought-after beautiful girl with double spare tires to a frustrated and heartbroken person with double lovelorn.
"That..."
As Mikoto's best friend, Kushina couldn't ignore her at this time. She immediately rushed up and gently hugged Mikoto's shoulder.
"Mikoto, it's okay. You still have me." Kushina comforted.
Mikoto looked at Kushina, who was beside her, and her face was full of grievances.
This was what best friends should be!
But...
Aoba was obviously jealous of Fugaku!
"What should I do?"
Mikoto's face was full of pain. She suddenly didn't know how to balance the relationship between these two people.
She knew that Brother Fugaku liked her.
Now, according to Aoba's jealous behavior, she understood Aoba's hidden feelings.
This way.
She found herself stuck between the two of them.
She didn't know how to choose.
"It's okay, don't be too sad. It's not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame that disgusting Fugaku for not making it clear. That's why you're in an awkward situation." Kushina quickly comforted her best friend. She felt more and more pitiful about her best friend. Who would have thought that Aoba and Fugaku would actually do such a thing behind her best friend's back?
"Is this Brother Fugaku's fault?" Mikoto's eyes flashed with confusion. She didn't know what to do.
"Of course, He should have told you about the matter between him and Aoba. It's too much." Kushina said indignantly.
"Huh?" Mikoto was stunned for a moment. These two people were rivals in love, and they were competing with each other. She was stuck in the middle and did not know what to do. Moreover, it was hard for them to say this kind of thing, so she said, "How can they tell me this kind of thing!"
"That's true..."
Kushina could not help but sigh in relief. At least from the current situation, they did not involve Minato in it.
