"Um..."

With a soft groan, Hua Hui slowly opened her eyes.

As she wandered around the lake, she straightened up, and then subconsciously rubbed the swollen and sore back of her neck.

At this time, there was a slight unnatural noise beside him, as if someone was there.

The ninja's vigilance instinct made Hanae quickly turn around. At the same time, her right hand reflexively reached towards the ninja tool bag behind her. She looked ready to pull out the kunai. Her petite body was tense, and the look of confusion on her face was also there. Fade quickly.

However, when the model lake faded from her sight and she instantly saw the scene in front of her clearly, her body suddenly relaxed.

"You're awake, Hanae."

The one who spoke was the leading jounin of Team [-], Baiyun Caiyu.

I saw her leaning quietly on a stone slab, with bandages wrapped in many places on her body. In some places, dark red blood could be clearly seen oozing out, as if she was recounting the story of how she had single-handedly challenged five Yueyin. The jounin's battle was so brutal.

After Hayato's careful treatment, her injuries did not worsen and she recovered to a certain extent, but she was unable to regain much mobility in such a short period of time.

It was a bit difficult to even move around, let alone quickly shuttle through the forest as usual.

Therefore, after the shadow clone of Hayabusa who helped her to this stalactite cave disappeared, she has been leaning quietly on the stone slab, motionless, slowly waiting for her injuries to recover.

"Ah."

Hua Hui nodded, and then rubbed the painful back of her neck, feeling a little uncomfortable there.

"Teacher Iroha, where are we?"

"I don't know, I just know it's a hidden cave."

"Eh? Stone cave? How could I..."

Halfway through Hanae's words, she didn't know what was going on, but what she was about to say next came to an abrupt end.

Immediately afterwards, she suddenly shrank and her face suddenly changed.

"wrong!"

As consciousness returned, her memory and cognition gradually became clearer.

"Hayato!

"

She suddenly shouted Hayato's name loudly, and at the same time stood up suddenly, almost instinctively raising her feet and wanting to rush outside.

"I said, Xiaohua Hui, do you want to leave the teacher alone?"

Hua Hui's expression suddenly froze when a light word came out, and then she gradually slowed down and finally stopped in place.

"Teacher, I want to save Hayato."

Hua Hui clenched her fists and said with a firm expression.

"Pointless action, isn't it?"

Baiyun Caiyu said calmly.

"If the enemy is a master who can't even deal with Hayato, you will just die if you go there. In this case, Hayato's thoughts will be wasted on you."

Hearing this, Hua Hui's eyes suddenly trembled.

She knew very well that Baiyun Caiyu was right. With her strength, it was impossible to really help Hayato. After all, Hayato was too good, so good that the people around him felt desperate.

Isn't this how their former companion Sato Hokuto gave up on the path of ninja?

She also felt the despair that Beidou felt in Hayato at that time. If it weren't for the persistence in her heart, she would have given up on being a ninja long ago.

But, even so, she still insisted on her idea.

"This is not a question of whether it can be done." Hua Hui took a deep breath and continued: "It is a question of whether it should be done."

"Teacher Iroha, I really cannot accept Hayato's sacrifice calmly..."

"Is it..."

"Yes!"

Hanae nodded heavily, then hesitated, and then said: "Teacher Caiyu, was this place found by Hayato-kun's shadow clone, right? With his cautious and meticulous habits, there should be a barrier or trap set up nearby. A defensive measure, right?”

Caiyu instantly understood what Hanae meant.

"You know him quite well."

She raised the corner of her mouth slightly, glanced at Hua Hui up and down, and a subtle smile slowly appeared on her cute little face.

"You guessed it right. Before Hayato-kun left, just in case, he did set up a lot of detonating charm traps and induction spells nearby, and he also erased the traces and smells of the actions, usually ninjas and beasts. You basically can’t find it here.”

"That means it's safe here, right?"

"Yes."

Hearing this, Hua Hui suddenly relaxed.

"That......"

She opened her mouth and was about to say something, but the moment her lips and teeth moved, Caiyu interrupted slowly:

"Indeed, what the teacher just said was a joke for you. In fact, even if you leave, I can recover from my injuries here alone without any problems. But... you have really made up your mind to support Hayato. You?"

Hearing this, Hua Hui couldn't help but grit her teeth.

"Well, I've already thought about it."

"Don't be so judgmental."

Caiyu moved her body a little and put a little pressure on her feet to make her back leaning on the stone board comfortable and rub it for a while.

"Thinking about problems must be comprehensive. You cannot rely on preferences and wishes and only consider answers that are deeply inclination in your heart. Otherwise, you will ignore many key things and make irrational choices, which may even lead to regrets throughout your life. "

Hearing this, Hua Hui paused inexplicably.

The result of a lifetime of regret...

She couldn't help but care about this sentence.

"Teacher Iroha, what do you mean..."

"Let's take the simplest example."

Caiyu turned her head, looked at Hanae, and then said softly: "Have you ever imagined such a situation."

"If Hayato-kun encounters not an enemy that he cannot deal with, but an opponent that is evenly matched, when he is in a stalemate with the enemy, and you suddenly appear without knowing anything, will you be the key to breaking the deadlock? Or even more In a bad situation, if you are caught by the enemy and used to hold Hayato into submission..."

Hearing this, Hua Hui's heart trembled.

She subconsciously simulated this situation in her mind.

After a moment, her delicate little face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes were full of wavering.

"You should know that Hayato is a person who values ​​his companions very much."

Caiyu lowered his eyes, withdrew his gaze, and then said as if to himself: "If it evolves into that situation, how do you want Hayato to deal with and make choices when facing his companions who are caught and held hostage?"

"Ignoring the safety of my companions, sitting back and watching my companions be killed by the enemy, and then bearing the pain that cannot be erased in my life..."

"Or, choose to sacrifice yourself, and end up depressed with extreme regret and strong self-blame?"

"Have you really imagined this situation?"

Snap...

Hua Hui's feet softened, and her whole body collapsed to the ground, as if her strength had been drained instantly, unable to move.

Baiyun Caiyu is right,

People are more inclined to believe what they want to believe.

She really hadn't considered this. She only thought that Hayato was now fighting alone, facing a large number of moon ninja troops, and was in danger. No matter what, as Hayato's companion, she couldn't leave him alone.

She is not afraid of death.Even if he and Hayato are killed by the enemy in the end, it doesn't matter.

But...it was impossible for her not to care whether she would hold Hayato back.

If it had the opposite effect, whether Hayato ignored her own safety or Hayato was killed by herself, she would not be able to accept either outcome.

Amid the inner entanglement and gradual torment, the string that had been tight in her heart was broken.

"There are only three situations that Hayato encounters now. The first is that the enemy is too strong. In this case, you will die if you go there; the second is that the enemy is evenly matched with him. If you go, in addition to holding back and giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of, It has no effect. It is a typical example of good intentions leading to bad things. The third type is that the enemy is not very strong and Hayato can handle it alone. In that case, it doesn’t make any difference whether you go or not.”

Baiyun Caiyu analyzed various situations for Hua Hui very rationally, as if he was staying out of the incident, keeping the bystanders awake.

However, while saying these words, her little hands hidden under her body were inexplicably clenched, as if she was enduring something.

"Okay, that's it. If you still want to go, the teacher won't stop you, as long as you don't regret it in the future."

After the words fell, Baiyun Caiyu didn't speak again.

Neither of them spoke. For a while, in the dark and humid cave, all that could be heard was the sound of the whistling wind, and the crisp sound of water dripping from the stalactites above, creating ripples on the lake below. sound.

A deathly silence spread.

After a while, Hua Hui stood up reluctantly, holding on to the wall beside her.

She bit her lip lightly and struggled to ask: "Then... Teacher Caiyu, are we staying here and doing nothing?"

"Other than that, I can't think of a better choice."

Baiyun Caiyu said expressionlessly.

If Hayato were here, he might not be able to help but pick up this cute, calm and sensible legal loli and give him a kiss.

If Hanae suddenly rushed into the battlefield at this time, Hayato could not imagine how difficult that situation would be.

In a dangerous battlefield, surrounded by enemy ninjas who are risking their lives, if you are not careful, you may be stabbed to death by a kunai flying out from an unexpected place, or you may accidentally fall into the enemy's trap and be killed. A bunch of detonating symbols exploded to death.

Novice ninjas like Hanae, who had just graduated, were far different from battlefield ninjas who had grown up in life and death battles again and again, both in terms of strength and experience.

Although her talent is not bad, at a young age, she can refine enough chakra through her own efforts to perform seven or eight offensive ninjutsu, and her physical fitness is already considered excellent among her peers. Moreover, he works very hard and spends most of his time practicing when there is no task.

With talent and hard work, even if she is not as good as those top geniuses, she is actually outstanding compared to other peers. If everything goes well, she will at least be a special jounin when she grows up.

But now she has been a ninja for too short a time and has not grown up at all.

It is true that she cares about her companions and that she disregards her own safety for the sake of her companions is worthy of recognition, but sometimes good intentions may not necessarily be good things, especially when others do not need them.

In silence, Hua Hui clenched her fists violently, then suddenly released them with a look of struggle, then clenched them again, and then released them.

After going back and forth for a while, she sighed dejectedly and sat down on the ground.

"I...I know, I won't cause trouble for Hayato."

Hearing this, Baiyun Caiyu was calm on the face, but secretly he breathed a sigh of relief.

This stubborn guy was finally persuaded.

Shaking her head, she suddenly looked at the stalactites dripping with water not far away, with an inexplicable look in her eyes.

So, next, it depends on whether that guy will abide by the agreement and come back here...

If you promise others, you will definitely do it.

So, he will definitely come back, that guy...
