Hokage: I Neji will never go offline

At the entrance of Konoha Village, Neji and Bai entered the village with the flow of people. Bai was more alert because he didn't know what was going on, while Neji behaved very casually, and sometimes looked around curiously.

"Hey! You two just came back from a mission?"

A voice suddenly sounded from the side, and it was greeted by a ninja wearing a bowler hat with hair covering half of his face on the right.

Bai's heart tightened, and he clenched his fist subconsciously, while Neji smiled and waved at the ninja.

"Ah, it's Izumo-senpai. That's right. We just went to pull weeds at the aunt's house in the next village. I'm almost exhausted now. I really want to go home and take a shower."

"Haha, is it? Then go back quickly."

"Well! Goodbye Izumo-senpai!"

Ning Ci waved at Shenyue Izumo again, took Bai's hand and ran into the village quickly.

Although Neji has been away from Konoha for six years, little has changed in Konoha Village. At a glance, it is prosperous, and because of the Chunin exam, the village is very lively at this time.

"Come this way, although you have already sneaked in, but you must also pay attention. Now is the time when the security of the village is the most tense. Once you make any special moves, it will attract the attention of Konoha Ninja."

Ning Ci lowered his voice and gave instructions to Bai, and led Bai towards his former residence. As he walked, Bai looked left and right, very curious.

"Lord Ning Ci, the people in this village seem to be very happy."

"Hehe, of course, this is the world's largest hidden village. Among other things, the third Hokage has always done a good job in terms of treating the people, but it's a pity that he is too old now."

Bai nodded thoughtfully, and the two quickly entered the Hyuga Clan's residence.

As soon as he entered Hyuga's residence, Neji's pace slowed down a lot, and he walked very carefully, but I don't know if it was because of the Chunin exam. At this time, there were very few people staying in Hyuga's residence, and most of them were not in the residence. .

Arriving at the door of the hut where Neji once lived, Neji took out the key that he had almost forgotten and opened the door that had been closed for many years.

The layout of the room remained unchanged from when Ningci left. The thick dust accumulated on the ground and on the table proved that no one had lived in this room for a long time, and Ningci could smell a damp smell as soon as he opened the door.

As soon as he stepped into the room, the dust in the room immediately floated up, making Ning Ci cough for a while, and quickly covered his mouth and nose.

"Cough, cough, cough! It seems that if you want to live here, you need to clean it up."

As soon as Bai entered the room, he immediately began to observe the surroundings, as if he was very curious about everything in the room.

"Is this the place where Neji-sama used to live? It looks pretty good."

Ning Ci closed the door, blew hard on a dusty chair and sat down.

"Ah, yes, it's really nice to live here."

His white eyes wandered, and finally stopped on a bento box on the table.

"Hey? Is this box Neji-sama used to eat?"

Ning Ci followed Bai's eyes to look at the bento box, a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes immediately, and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

"Ah, this box is the box that used to deliver meals to me every day. I have a good relationship with Tiantian since we were young. She usually likes to come to play with me. Later, I went to school every day. I don't want to go to school. I worry about me being alone every day. I will be hungry at home, so I prepare two lunch boxes every day, one for me in the morning and one for myself.”

"Hey? Is that so? Isn't Tian Tian very sad when Master Ningci left?"

Ning Ci immediately recalled Tian Tian's excited look when he reunited with Tian Tian, ​​and couldn't help but feel guilty.

"Yeah, I think she must have been very sad when she heard that I was taken away by Itachi. That guy is a very soft-hearted guy."

Bai was very keenly aware of the sadness that flashed in Neji's eyes, and realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, so he quickly changed the topic.

"One of the purposes of our visit this time is to take her away."

"Ah, yes, I won't make her sad this time, absolutely not!"

Ning Ci's eyes were firmer than ever before, but at this moment, the conversation between the two suddenly sounded outside the house.

"Hey? How do I feel that there is someone in this room?"

"Go, go! Are you hallucinating? This room is Hinata Neji's room. Since the day Uchiha was exterminated, no one has lived here. How could there be people?"

"But I really..."

The conversation between the two was getting closer, Ning Ci frowned, and his eyes lit up red.

Soon, the panicked voices of the two people came from outside the house.

"Hey! There's a strange guy over there, do you see it?"

"Ah! That guy is about to run away, hurry up! The Chunin exam will start the day after tomorrow, there must be no risk!"

The voices of the two became farther and farther away, and Ning Ci also heaved a sigh of relief, and the red light in his eyes slowly extinguished.

"Huh~~ Choosing to live here is really not a good choice. Fortunately, there are red eyes who can deceive them with illusions. Bai, let's go, we can't stay here any longer."

"Yes!"

Neji and Bai immediately left the house and left Hyuga's resident, heading towards the Death Forest.

Neci and Bai were very anxious when they left the station, but after entering the busy city, Neci and Bai returned to normal, walking on the street without attracting anyone's attention.

In the forest of death, Neji and Bai found a tree hole as a place to rest.

"Master Ning Ci, this forest seems to be more dangerous than ordinary forests. I saw no fewer than ten poisonous insects along the way."

Ningci and Bai often spend the night in the forest, and Bai will often go to the forest to find food at night, so he is quite familiar with ordinary forests.

Ning Ci shrugged, chose a dry place to sit down, and began to build the prototype of the bonfire with wood.

"Of course, this forest is called the Forest of Death, and it's also one of the venues for the Chunin exams. How could it not be dangerous? But for us, that's all."

Bai suddenly realized and nodded. Suddenly, Bai's eyes narrowed, and he threw three ice needles with his hands. The ice needles passed through the gap between several trees and nailed a half-meter-long centipede to the trunk in the distance.

"Master Ning Ci, shall we try to eat that tonight?"

In order to let Neji know what he was talking about, Bai pointed at the centipede in the distance with his finger. Neji threw a card at the centipede without even thinking, and the card immediately turned into lightning and the centipede was directly turned into coke. .

"Are you kidding me? Is it poisonous? And even if it wasn't poisonous, I wouldn't be able to swallow it."
