Obito eagerly took the letter and scanned it quickly.

Sure enough, as Kakashi said, the simple greetings between friends did not contain the ambiguous content that Kakashi mentioned just now.

"You are so despicable, Kakashi, I almost got deceived by you."

After Obito breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes glared at Kakashi even more fiercely.

"Didn't you already get cheated?"

Kakashi blinked innocently.

"That was my carelessness."

"You have grown up, I take back this sentence. You are still the same as before. When it comes to Lin's affairs, your thinking ability is zero. For ninjas, this is a very fatal weakness."

"This has nothing to do with you. I have already sent the letter. Next, I am going to pay my respects to Teacher Minato and move my grandma's ashes. I don't know how long it will be until we meet again next time. Anyway, you should be careful in Konoha. I can

I don’t want to hear the news that you will die one day.”

Although he was unhappy with Kakashi's play just now, Obito still reminded Kakashi to be careful in Konoha.

He has no experience of being a spy, but he also knows that the life of a spy is not easy. It is not as easy as it seems on the surface. If you are not careful, you will be put in an irreversible situation.

After explaining this to Kakashi, whirlpool-like space ripples immediately appeared around Obito's body, swallowing his body and disappearing from the room.

It has been more than half a month since I entered Konoha Ninja School.

Ichihime gradually got used to the learning rhythm of Konoha Ninja School and seemed to be able to do it with ease.

Although it only lasted for more than half a month, I also had a written test and a practical class during this period.

Their grades were all ranked first in their grade.

In the eyes of others, this is a very gratifying achievement, but in the eyes of Yiji, it is just an inevitable result and nothing to be proud of.

As for interpersonal communication, the problem is also not big. She does not pretend to be superior to the top students, so even if she is a transfer student, it is easy to get along with the classmates and have her own group.

As for teachers, there is one thing that makes Yiji quite concerned.

That was the head teacher of Class A, Grade 2, who she was in. She seemed to be paying too much attention to her.

During class, he secretly observed her several times, making Yiji wonder if she had any strange hobbies.

So, after class one day, Yiji took the initiative to find her class teacher and wanted to ask for clarification.

"Teacher Fujimura."

"It's Mahiru-san, what's the matter?"

A middle-aged man named Fujimura was sitting there with a fat body and a big belly.

He stopped grading his homework and raised his head to look in surprise at the transfer student who seemed to have something important to discuss with him.

To be honest, he was very curious about Yiji's identity.

Ichihime is a transfer student that the Third Hokage personally ordered to take good care of. Generally speaking, it is too strange for a transfer student to appear at this time.

And to have the Third Hokage come and explain in person, one can imagine how extraordinary this transfer student is.

He thinks that this new transfer student in his class is a mysterious girl with many secrets.

At least for decades in Konoha, he had never heard of the surname 'Mahiro'.

"Nothing in particular, I just want to know why you want to secretly observe me in class?"

"Uh...is it that obvious?"

"Ordinary people may not be able to detect it, but to me, it's no different from being honest. Today, too, I was secretly observed a total of eleven times."

Yiji believed in her own insight, even though as a student, it was inappropriate to belittle her teacher like this.

But Kazuki believes that Teacher Fujimura is weaker than him. It is not difficult for Kazuki to notice that Fujimura is observing his actions.

"Haha, Mahiru-kun's eyesight is really sharp."

Fujimura scratched his head in embarrassment.

"In other words, Mr. Fujimura admitted it, right?"

"Yes."

Fujimura nodded. Since he had been discovered, he could only admit it frankly.

"So, what's the reason for secretly observing me? Or is it that Mr. Fujimura is actually a perverted lolicon?"

Kazuki looked at Fujimura with a dangerous look.

"Ahem, that's so rude, Mahiru-kun. Teacher, I don't have such bad habits. Why would you want to go to a place like that?"

Fujimura was frightened by Kazuhime's bold assumption.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the office, only him and Yi Ji were there. Otherwise, Yi Ji's words alone would have caused him a lot of trouble.

"Why is that? It's useless to lie in front of me. The teacher may not believe it. Even if you use violent means, I can still deal with a mere chuunin."

Yiji is very confident in her abilities.

Even if she doesn't break the seal inside her body, it's more than enough for her to deal with a chuunin.

Fujimura, who heard Kazuki's threatening words, did not feel angry, but looked at Kazuki blankly, as if he was caught in some memory.

"It's so similar, Mahiru-san."

"What?"

"Whether it's the serious expression or the contempt for the teacher's 'mere chuunin' tone, they are very similar to a student that the teacher taught in the past."

"Well……"

It seemed to be an unexpected answer. Kazuhime didn't expect that it was because of this kind of thing that she would receive Teacher Fujimura's attention.

"In other words, Mr. Fujimura secretly observed me just because I am similar to one of your past students?"

"Yes. Every time I see Mahiru-san taking class seriously, the teacher feels as if he is twenty years younger."

Fujimura said with emotion.

"It's really troublesome. Is it the self-delusion of a greasy middle-aged man?"

"..."

The look of contempt for him was indeed very similar, almost carved from the same mold.

If he hadn't been sure that those two people had left Konoha long ago, he would really have thought that Kazuhime was the child of those two people.

However, how is this possible?

They are already notorious rebels in Konoha. Even if they have children, they cannot appear in Konoha.

After clearing up the doubts, Yi Ji left the office.

Looking at Kazuki's back as she left, Fujimura subconsciously scratched the thinning hair on his head.

"Well, I'm getting younger and younger, and the feeling of going back twenty years ago is getting stronger and stronger."

Unfortunately, I can never go back.

Cultivating three outstanding ninjas is indeed a glorious thing that a teacher can be proud of throughout his life.

But when he thought about the students he valued most, they all later became Konoha's notorious S-class defector ninjas.

This is simply like a trick of fate.

But fate wasn't completely playing tricks on him, and now it gave him hope again.

As Fujimura, who has been engaged in education for 20 to 30 years, he can tell the difference between geniuses and mortals at a glance.

In his opinion, Kazuhime was a more outstanding piece of diamond than the original Uchiha Ruri, or even Uchiha Itachi, who graduated from the ninja school a year ago.

To train Kazuki into an excellent ninja, Fujimura was so determined at this moment.

In the laboratory.

"How is Kazuhime doing in Konoha?"

After returning from the Shiggou Forest, despite her nonchalant look on her face, Ruri still cared about Kazuhime's situation in Konoha.

After all, it is different from the Kingdom of Ghosts. If there is any emergency, it will be difficult for them to take care of it.

"Don't worry, according to the report, Kazuji has officially enrolled in Konoha Ninja School. And I have asked Kazuji to write two letters regularly every month and have people from the Shion Flower Merchant Association send them over. There will be no problems.

of."

Since his daughter was temporarily sent to study in Konoha, Shiraishi had already arranged everything.

Even if he encounters a mutation accident, he can transport Ichihime out of Konoha unscathed.

As long as Ichihime attends Konoha Ninja School honestly, does her job as a student normally, and doesn't do anything too eye-catching, there won't be any accidents.

The eyeliners of Konoha's top brass would not always keep an eye on a neutral princess.
