Seeing that the person in front of her didn't say much about this and just chose to rest against the tree, Lin's tense nerves relaxed a little.

At the same time, she also regretted her recklessness. This man was so powerful, and he might even be a legendary ninja. Why did she want to comfort him before?

But - obviously everyone in the gathering place was very friendly, so even if it wasn't necessary, she didn't understand why this person was so hostile, even to the point of wanting to kill her?

At this time, Obito finally calmed down. He couldn't get out of the space ninjutsu. Could it be an illusion? The Infinite Tsukuyomi was probably not activated yet. If he was already in the Infinite Tsukuyomi, then this Rin should be Nohara Rin!

After an unknown amount of time, Lin finally mustered up the courage to say, "Well, I'm sorry for disturbing you before. Can you let me go?"

The injury on her neck has not recovered yet, and Lin still felt some pain in her neck when she said this. However, she has been out for a long time, and her grandma will be worried if she doesn't go back.

Ninjas must not be offended. Lin kept this in mind. She just wanted to go home and stay away from this person. Although ninjas have many strange abilities and are very powerful, few of them would do good things.

I heard from my grandmother that many ninjas are a group of bandits who kill people without blinking an eye. After seeing the performance of the man in front of her, Lin became more convinced of this.

Being interrupted from his thoughts, Obito looked at Lin in silence for a while.

Seeing this, Lin suddenly became nervous, and her muscles were tense, as if she was waiting for the judgment that would decide her fate.

Finally, Obito said in a calm tone: "Let's go."

Hearing this, Lin turned around and ran without any hesitation.

During the time when Lin was unconscious, Obito had already figured out the situation here clearly. The space here was not large, either as an illusion or as a different space.

To describe it specifically, it's like cutting out a corner of the ninja world. There is a very small gathering place about a thousand meters away, not even a village. There seem to be some people living here normally. 'Indigenous'?

He saw an old man looking for Lin, but Lin was not running home, but running away quickly in the opposite direction of the gathering place.

Everyone's behavior was too "normal". Obito's mind seemed to be empty. If it was Nohara Rin, he would probably do the same, right? Good people should be rewarded. If a girl like this doesn't get rewarded, then it means that the ninja world needs to be cleansed!

Obito followed behind Lin and watched her run to the boundary that he had explored and found impossible to cross, just as the girl stepped across that boundary.

Suddenly, Obito's vision blurred. At the same time, the scene around him changed, and he returned to the gathering place inexplicably.

And - ahead, Lin was walking towards him, as if seeing him for the first time, her eyes were full of inquiry and curiosity.

Lin took a step forward and asked, "Hello, are you a refugee who recently fled?"

Obito: "..."

Obito looked towards her neck, only to find that the wound he had previously inflicted was still there.

Logically speaking, judging from Obito's current attire, he could not be considered a refugee in any way. Even if we assume the best, he is just a weirdo wearing a mask.

Obito looked at the girl in front of him and asked, "What do I look like in your eyes?"

"Ugh?"

Although she was a little confused as to why the man asked this, Lin still responded seriously: "You look tired and exhausted, and there is some dust on your face, but you don't have to worry too much about it. After all, even so, you are still handsome among these refugees."

When Obito heard this, his expression was a little unnatural, and even the anger in his brows dissipated a bit. He had never heard such a comment before, and it was even less likely to be heard after he put on the mask.

As for this handsomeness, he automatically brought it back to how he looked before half of his body was destroyed.

Obito: "Yeah."

Lin blinked before realizing that the person in front of her was answering the question she asked before.

"If you are a refugee, I have a map here. It contains some relatively safe routes that only I know about. It doesn't cost much. As long as you have food, anything, even a piece of fruit, you can exchange it for this map."

"Can you show it to me first?"

Lin shook her head: "Many people have good memories. I just want to take advantage of this time to collect some food. The battle has reached here, and I have to leave as soon as possible."

Obito frowned. He didn't have any food with him. "I can keep you safe. Is there a way to the 'outside' on your map?"

Lin pursed her lips slightly: "...Are you a ninja?"

"Run away! A ninja is coming!"

"Lin! Let's go! Why do you care about these people?!"

A man just ran over and looked back at Lin, hesitating for a moment, but still stamped his feet and said: "Lin, I know your temper, you have the right to know this, those ninjas seem to have beaten your grandmother!"

"What?!" Lin was a little flustered.

Obito said, "Which direction? I'll take you there."

Unexpectedly, Lin seemed not to hear what he said, or completely ignored his existence, and ran wildly in this direction.

Obito wanted to hold her but found that his palm went directly through her: "What's going on?!"

After discovering this, Obito wanted to try to grab the man, but he found that his palm still went straight through. The man seemed unable to see him, and he could no longer exert any influence here.

This seemed to confirm a certain suspicion in his mind that this place was fake and everything he saw was just an illusion.

I don't know how long it took, Obito was like an audience, he could only watch the development of things. Just like before, no miracle happened, and the girl died after all...

As for how she died? Obito had forgotten a little. After Lin's death, he seemed to have regained the right to "communicate" with this place. He could touch her. The girl looked like she was asleep. Except for a few red spots on her body, she looked no different from when she was alive.

Oh yeah, what's wrong with those ninjas? They were just testing the medicine. After all, they couldn't let their companions do such a thing.

Lin's luck was good, but also bad. There were no problems when she tried the drugs for the first few times. In the end, those ninjas just wanted to know the specific time and symptoms of the poison taking effect. This was very "normal". After all, errors in actual combat could very likely cost one's life. Using an ordinary person's life to exchange for information was undoubtedly a very cost-effective deal.

As for the old man? They didn't touch her, it was just that the building accidentally collapsed during the battle, and the old man was trapped underneath.

If someone is willing to come to your door and take the initiative to cooperate, they can't refuse, right?

The white part of Obito's eyes was bloodshot because he discovered a problem. If he had known that these things would happen, he would have killed those people in advance or taken Lin away while he could still interfere here. , seems to avoid this situation.

In a daze, as if in response to Obito's wish, all the surrounding scenery began to move back as if they were traveling back in time.

The girl's painful whine in Obito's ears gradually disappeared, replaced by a soft voice: "What's wrong with you? You look sad?"
