'The Body Revival Technique's scroll… is gone!'
'Lost?'
'Impossible!'
'I already checked it before taking the clothes off!'
'So, was it stolen?'
'Who is it?'
'Who stole it!'
'Might Duy?'
'But he has always been under my sight and has no chance to touch my clothes at all!'
'So, it's Might Guy?'
Shinnō recalled the situation when Guy was hanging his clothes on the hanger just now, and confirmed that Guy did not do any extra movements. Moreover, Guy is wearing green tight-fitting clothes, and did not have a ninja bag tied on his body, so there was no place on his body to hide the scroll!
'Who else is there?'
'Wait, could it be Gekkō Kanpū?'
Shinnō's expression is gloomy. After thinking about it carefully, the reason why he took off his clothes was because Kanpū splashed him with boiling water!
'However, Gekkō Kanpū had already left before I took off my clothes.'
'Even if Gekkō Kanpū came back halfway, how could he steal the scroll silently under my nose?'
Although he must be distracted during this process, even so, with Shinnō's sense ability, if someone wants to steal the scroll from the entrance silently, at least Elite Jōnin himself must take action!
'Gekkō Kanpū is Elite Jōnin?'
'Don't joke around!'
Even if Shinnō was killed, he would not believe that the kid who claimed to be only 5 years old would be an Elite Jōnin!'
'The most important point is that, in the entire Shinobi World, except me, no one else know about the Body Revival Technique's scroll in my body, so no matter who stole the scroll, where did that person get the information?'
'Wait, is it Fukakusa Tavern?'
Every time Shinnō returned to the Fukakusa Tavern from Duy's house, he would immediately record Duy's data on the scroll. If it is exposed, it will only be possible at that time!
'In Konoha... is someone watching me?'
'To be able to avoid my sense and monitor me… Could it be Konoha's Anbu?'
Shinnō's heart sank. If it was indeed Konoha's Anbu taking action, once the content in the scroll is exposed, with Sarutobi Hiruzen's character, he will definitely ask Shinnō to cooperate with the investigation immediately. If Shinnō has never done anything wrong, he is naturally not afraid, but his true identity is the leader of Land of the Sky, so no matter how well he pretends, he will not be able to withstand Konoha's thorough investigation!
Thinking of this, Shinnō felt a sense of urgency in his heart, and wished to leave Konoha directly, but he was a little unwilling. Firstly, he hasn't got all the data of Duy's body, secondly, in case it wasn't Konoha's Anbu taking action?
Shinnō's thoughts drifted further and further, gradually deviating from the truth.
"Doctor Shinnō, what's wrong?"
When Duy saw Shinnō standing in the entrance without moving, he felt that it is a little strange.
"Nothing."
Shinnō suppressed the irritability in his heart, and left without looking back.
The heavy rain poured down outside, and some of naughty raindrops crossed the umbrella, slapping Shinnō's face.
At this time, Shinnō was faced with two difficult choices: to leave, or to stay?
Back at the Fukakusa Tavern, Shinnō has just returned, and the enthusiastic waitress took out five bottles of sake. Shinnō was in a very bad mood and wanted to get wildly drunk, but he didn't dare!
...
At the same time, Kanpū was also struggling to move forward in the heavy rain, but he has overdrawn his body and was beaten by the heavy rain. At this time, he was almost unable to hold on.
"Isn't this Kanpū-chan? What's wrong?"
Suddenly, a slightly familiar old voice came from the side.
Before Kanpū had time to recall who the voice was, his vision darkened and he fainted.
When Kanpū opened his eyes again, his eyelids were a little heavy and his mind was a little dizzy. He then realized that he had caught a cold.
"Big brother, are you awake?"
Seeing that his elder brother woke up, Hayate hurriedly leaned over on Kanpū's shoulder to look at him.
Kanpū pushed him away in disgust, completely instinctive, and then he remembered what happened before he fainted.
"Scro..."
Kanpū closed his mouth halfway after shouting, almost bit his tongue, and then struggled to get up from the futon.
"Big brother, Grandpa Inoue brought you back. Aunt Keiko said that you have a cold after checking it, so you need to rest more, big brother, are you hungry?" Hayate kept talking.
Kanpū's head hurts. At this time, how can he be in the mood to eat!
He… grumble grumble.
'…All right.'
"I'm indeed a little hungry, Hayate, go get me something to eat." Kanpū said expressionlessly.
"I understand!" Hayate ran out immediately.
When Kanpū saw Hayate leave, he hurriedly checked his pants. No surprise, the clothes he had worn before had been soaked in the rain so it had been changed.
The scroll is naturally not on him either.
'I just managed to steal it.'
Kanpū was shocked and anxious, but at this time, he had to calm down. The worst scenario he is facing now is that scroll was seen by his mother and even Inoue who was brought back by him. If so, how should he explain it?
Kanpū wanted to make up a story to fool the two, but as soon as he used his brain, his head started to feel dizzy.
With a cold, he couldn't concentrate at all.
At this moment, Hayate had already pushed open the sliding door with a bowl in his hand and walked in: "Big brother, you can have some onigiri first, it is seaweed and sesame flavor."
"…"
'Nonsense, can it at least be another flavor?'
'Wait! This is not the time to complain!'
Kanpū asked, "Hayate, where is Grandpa Inoue who brought me back?"
"Grandpa Inoue has already left." Hayate said.
"What about my mother?" Kanpū asked again.
"Aunt Keiko is cleaning." Hayate said.
Kanpū then finally asks the important question: "Hayate, where are the clothes and pants I changed?"
"In the bathroom." Hayate said proudly, "Big brother, I helped you take off your clothes, pants and ***."
Kanpū's face turned black, 'Why do I feel that I'm not pure anymore?'
"Then, what about the things in my pants?" Kanpū asked with a black face.
"Is it that scroll?"
Hayate stood up and ran to the side, picking up a scroll from the corner.
When Kanpū saw it, he breathed a sigh of relief and took the scroll from Hayate. While looking at the navy blue scroll, Kanpū asked casually: "Has anyone seen it?"
"I want to see it, but Aunt Keiko didn't let me see it, saying that it belongs to big brother."
Hayate said.
"Hayate is really good." Kanpū stretched out his hand to touch Hayate's head.
"But I couldn't help it, so I see it anyway." Hayate said with a smile.
"I..."
Kanpū almost couldn't control his hand, and finally sighed weakly. He retracted his hand, and asked, "Beside you, have my mother, and Grandpa Inoue seen it?"
"No." Hayate said triumphantly, "I opened it secretly, so they don't know."
'It's still safe!'
"Then, do you understand?" Kanpū asked.
Hayate shook his head and said with a bitter expression: "There are some words on it that I don't understand, and they are so difficult to read."
'Thank god it's difficult!'
This time, Kanpū was completely relieved, but he still had to instruct Hayate, so he said, "Hayate, about the scroll, don't mention it to anyone in the future, understand?"
Hayate nodded subconsciously, and then asked carefully: "Why?"
Kanpū said: "This is big brother's secret. I can't let anyone know, otherwise, I will be in great trouble!"
Hayate was convinced and nodded: "I understand, big brother, I will never say it!"
Through these days of getting along, Kanpū knows that Hayate's mouth is still quite strict, otherwise, he couldn't hide from Keiko about how he pretended to be sick.
"But, big brother, what should I answer when Aunt Keiko and Grandpa Inoue ask?" Hayate asked.
"You can say it was the three basic techniques, I wrote it down at the Academy to teach you, understand?" Kanpū said calmly.
Hayate nodded vigorously: "I understand, big brother!"
