Konoha: Reincarnated by Orochimaru in the beginning

Lingchuan drew a line on the notebook with a pen and said: "Next, I plan to buy a sesame cake. The sesame cake near the entrance of the village is very delicious. I recommend you to try it."

"Do you do this every day?" Nagato took the notebook and saw that it recorded all kinds of little things, bits and pieces, including what to eat today, which restaurant is the cheapest, and what the boss's preferences are. Say something more to get a chance to get a discount on the product. Which child's grades have improved, what gifts should be brought, etc.

"Not necessarily. Occasionally, I will go for a walk outside the village when encountering special circumstances."

"Special case?"

"Want to eat sesame cakes?"

"..."

Nagato's first child was Tic Tac Toe. This person only spoke half of his words every time, as if he was deliberately teasing him. He wanted to hit someone, but his reason reminded him that now was not the time to think about such things, but - he was really angry.

Arriving at the sesame seed cake stall, Nagato felt that the people around him seemed more agile than the last time he saw them. Maybe it was an illusion?

At this moment, something suddenly blocked his sight: "Do you want to eat it? It's delicious."

I saw the freshly baked sesame pancakes in front of me, sprinkled with sesame seeds, and the aroma like waves of heat rushed to the tip of Nagato's nose.

Nagato frowned, slapped the things in front of him away with his hands, and said with a cold expression: "I'm not hungry."

Hmm... If Zerokawa hadn't seen the slight swallowing movement at Nagato's neck, he might have believed it.

"Really?"

I saw Lingchuan half-crouched in front of Nagato, took a bite of the sesame seed cake, smashed it in his mouth, and exhaled hot breath: "That's such a shame. If you don't believe me, smell it, this sesame seed cake is really fragrant."

Because the distance between the two was too close, just when Nagato frowned and took a step back and was about to say something, a sesame seed cake was suddenly stuffed directly into his mouth.

"Don't throw it away. It's a shameful waste. If there's something wrong with this thing, I'll rip off my head and play it as a ball for you."

Nagato: "...Have you ever bitten it?"

Lingchuan curled his lips and said, "I bought two. Yours is new. I'm not stupid. How could I give it to you before I have to eat it?"

Nagato: "..."

After a while, after purchasing the necessary things, Lingchuan flexed his wrist and said, "It's time to go. I'll take you home first. I also have to go back and prepare for the classes I will take later."

At this moment, Nagato suddenly whispered: "You were hit in the heart and are about to die."

"What?"

no impression? Nagato rubbed his forehead. He couldn't tell what his mood was at this time. It should be considered good news. Regardless of whether it was true or not, it at least proved that Liikawa was probably still alive: "It's nothing."

Hearing this, Lingchuan did not choose to continue questioning.

When he reached the door of Nagato's 'home', Reikawa touched his pocket, finally took out a candy and put it in Nagato's hand: "This is the prize for your serious study today."

In response, Nagato did not refuse, but after putting away the candy, he said: "Will it still be at the same place tomorrow?"

Lingchuan pondered for a moment and said: "Not necessarily, you will know when the time comes. Although you won't listen, as long as you don't violate the rules I told you today, it is actually very safe here."

As he spoke, he knocked on the door in front of him.

Safety? Maybe, Nagato couldn't deny it. If it was really safe, then he wouldn't be like this.

Watching Liikawa leave, just when Nagato was about to follow him quietly, the door of his 'home' suddenly opened. 'Father's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Nagato, and he was so excited that he wanted to give him a kiss again. Hug, but with the lessons learned from the past, Nagato easily avoided this 'attack'.

At the same time, 'Mother' followed and walked out. She also wanted to hug Nagato, but Nagato still avoided him. Unexpectedly, 'Mother' froze on the spot, and her eyes suddenly dimmed. But he quickly cheered up again, grabbed the 'father' who was frowning and was about to say something, and shook his head: "Maybe the child has grown up and is shy. Let's not talk about it for now. Today is a happy day. remember?"

Hearing this, 'Father' blew out a breath from his nose and pretended not to care: "Of course I remember, a certain brat can talk. We spent a lot of money to buy all kinds of delicious food and gifts today. But that brat won’t even let us hug him.”

For some unknown reason, Nagato did not choose to leave directly. Instead, after listening to the two people's chatter, he suddenly said: "I'm sorry, I'm not your child."

Of course, this wave of self-identity was not Nagato's whim, but this sentence violated one of the rules that Zero River told him when he taught him a lesson before: do not reveal your identity to others, and try to play your role well.

As for the consequences of revealing his identity, Lingchuan did not go into details, but judging by his tone, this rule did not seem to pose much danger.

And Nagato wanted to see what would happen after breaking the rules.

Unexpectedly, the 'father' did not get angry because of this. Instead, he took a deep breath to suppress his emotions and then calmly said: "Brat, since you said you are not our child, then who do you think you are?"

Nagato glanced at his 'father'. So far, breaking this rule didn't seem to cause any special reaction?

"...You don't need to know." After saying that, Nagato planned to leave here. After all, if he loses track of him this time, who knows what he will look like next time.

'Father' suddenly shouted: "Wait! Nagato! We don't know what you want to do. Children should have their own ideas when they are older, but no matter what, please ensure your own safety!"

'Mother' took a step forward, holding something in her hand and approaching Nagato, but this time Nagato did not avoid it.

'Mother' knelt down and tied the red ropes on both sides around Nagato's neck. Hanging on the red rope was a jade stone with a gradient of green and white. Although there was no carving on it, she knew the value of this thing just from this. It's not cheap, especially in this village where it's likely to attract prying eyes from other people.

'Mother' said softly: "This pendant was passed down from my mother, but I don't know why. I forgot what my mother looked like. I only remember that she was a very gentle and strong person. Now I will give this to you." , I hope it can keep you safe, I think you should be able to have something like this now, and it will not be taken away by others."

'Father''s voice was a little dull: "Okay, anyway - if you encounter something you can't handle, you can come back. Home will always be your safe haven."

"..."

After that, Nagato didn't know how he left his 'home'. Only the necklace around his neck told him that everything just happened.

As if lost in thought, Nagato lowered his head and murmured:

"Illusion..."
