Chapter 52 Secret Cooperation

night.

The streets of Konoha are brightly lit and lively.

Uchiha Tatsumi had already changed out of his ANBU clothes and was wearing an ordinary, baggy sportswear.

The long black hair hangs slightly fluffy on the back, lightly tied with a white hairband.

Uchiha Tatsu has grown his hair a little longer, and he also pays attention to washing his hair every day. His fair cheeks make him look very clean.

A pair of eyes lit up with lights.

There was a girl beside him, her little hands had been retracted into the loose cuffs, and she was wearing the same black sportswear as Uchiha Tatsumi, only a few sizes smaller.

Blinking bright eyes.

The other hand dragged the boy into a shop.

"Aunt Keiko."

Uchiha Haru raised her hand and said hello.

A middle-aged woman in her forties smiled slightly when she saw Uchiha Haru and the boy walking in. The crow's feet at the corners of her eyes stretched slightly.

"I want four skewers of three-color meatballs."

"I still eat so much at this late hour and I'm not afraid of gaining weight."

Aunt Keiko, the owner of the meatball shop, smiled and shook her head.

The girl didn't answer either.

Hidden thoughts.

He just narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"hey-hey."

The white teeth are exposed, and the sweetness is just like the sweetness that fills the shop.

The street was very lively, but the small shop seemed much quieter.

The two of them sat on the table outside the shop, quietly enjoying the cool breeze, and took a bite of the sweet and glutinous three-color meatballs.

The first one is pink.

The sweet taste filled my taste buds, and I chewed it for a few more bites.

It's surprisingly delicious.

This is one of Haru Uchiha's favorite foods...

Of course, there are many more things she likes.

Uchiha Haru bit her meatball and looked at the endless stream of pedestrians on the street in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

It is rare for a girl to be silent.

Uchiha Tatsumi's eyes lingered on Qing's cheek.

The girl's cheeks gradually lost their tenderness, and she seemed to have changed a lot compared to the first time they met.

Then his eyes dropped.

Concentrate on the meatballs on your plate.

Then I heard the girl suddenly speak.

"Hello."

"kindness?"

Uchiha Tatsun raised his head, but saw the girl's rare solemn expression, and her eyes were slightly serious.

An alarm suddenly sounded in my heart, and I leaned back slightly.

Xuan even reacted, what was he doing?

Maybe it's just that the sudden serious look in his eyes just now looked very much like the same person.

He coughed lightly, readjusted his seat, and then spoke again.

"What's wrong?"

Qing was stunned for a moment when she saw the boy's operation, but she didn't care, and then hesitated before continuing.

"Let me tell you something..."

Pause slightly.

"The family wants to use you to communicate with Danzo..."

The girl first looked around cautiously and then spoke cautiously.

"I overheard it."

"But I don't know if this will be bad for you, so..."

Uchiha Chen was startled for a moment.

"The family wants to collude with Danzo?"

He didn't know about this at first, but it was obvious that it had happened now.

Because before going home during the day, he went to see the clan leader and handed over Shimura Danzo's secret letter.

It seems that Danzo also wants to cooperate with the Uchiha family on something.

It turns out to be something called tacit understanding.

Did you play the role of a communication bridge?

The young man bit the meatball and frowned slightly.

When they met with the clan elders today, they didn't say too many unnecessary things. They just asked him about his recent practice status, and then told him not to slack off in what elders say to younger ones.

After some polite greetings, Uchiha Tatsu said goodbye and left.

The clan elder did not mention anything about Danzo's cooperation, but he also told him not to spread the word about this letter and to remember to keep it confidential.

It seems that the family's cooperation with Danzo Shimura is still under wraps.

Perhaps the two parties, who appear to be on the same side as each other, can achieve better results by secretly cooperating.

Seeing Uchiha Tatsu's frowning expression, the girl also felt a little nervous.

"Chen, could it be that..."

"nothing."

Uchiha Chen's expression did not change, he just shook his head calmly and hid the matter in his heart.

For Qing, she doesn't need to deal with these things yet. What she needs now is to grow up healthily and happily.

Because of the huge age difference in psychology, Qing is like a little sister or an innocent and lively girl in his eyes.

He believes that he can handle these things well.

"Then... let's talk about your recent studies."

Uchiha Tatsumi changed the topic.

The girl seemed to sense Uchiha Tatsu's reluctance to mention it further, her bright eyes dimmed slightly, and she pursed her pink lips lightly.

Then he looked up again and showed a bright smile.

White teeth, curved eyes.

"I want you to help me make up some extra lessons..."

There was a pause.

"I also want to graduate early..."

The girl said softly.

Uchiha Tatsu saw the note and went to Qing's house for the first time to ask her out.

After all, Uchiha Tatsu has been elusive recently, and it is impossible for Haru to find traces of him.

That's why he took the initiative to find her.

I also met Qing’s father, a middle-aged man who has gone through many vicissitudes of life.

He had a very good attitude towards the young man, smiled slightly, and felt confident and bold in letting his daughter go out so late.

"If you want to make up lessons..."

Uchiha Chen was a little hesitant. He was very pressed for time now. He didn't have channels to obtain knowledge before, but now he has.

I thought that becoming a disciple of Orochimaru was a very scary thing.

But after a while, Uchiha Tatsu discovered that Orochimaru seemed to be no longer interested in the Sharingan, and he hid in the laboratory every day and didn't know what he was busy with.

Danzo has also been here several times.

This experiment is closely related to roots.

The level of confidentiality is extremely high.

But Orochimaru didn't reveal anything.

In addition to completing the minimum task quota for each month, Uchiha Tatsumi spent most of his time studying Orochimaru's library.

Seeing the hesitation in Uchiha Tatsu's eyes, the girl said nothing, but there was always disappointment.

She also knew that Uchiha Tatsu was now in the ANBU. Being absorbed into the ANBU system at the age of only seven was definitely an unprecedented achievement.

She was happy for Chen but also worried.

ANBU's missions are very dangerous and very busy.

'Maybe... I shouldn't bother him with this little thing.'

The girl thought silently in her heart, feeling a little bitter, even the sweet three-color meatballs had no taste.

Then I heard Uchiha Tatsu's voice.

"Every weekend, if I don't have any tasks, I will practice with you for a day."

The young man said softly.

Allocate a day to train Ninjutsu with Haru.

In the rest of the time, if there is nothing else to do, I would help Qing make up for her lessons.

"Really?"

The girl suddenly raised her head, her eyes shining with joy.

"of course it's true."
