Konoha: Prepare to defect, the system is coming.

Konoha Medical Department.

When the villagers entered here, they could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the medical department suddenly became much more tense, and the number of medical ninjas had visibly decreased.

The task that originally required two people to complete together can now only be undertaken by one person alone.

Even the deputy director, who usually sat in his office to relax, moved a table and sat at the door of the medical department to personally examine the villagers in order to share the pressure of other medical ninjas.

“You are anxious inside, you should exercise more.

The corn I planted in my field is ripe now. You can go and harvest it. It will be fine after you harvest it! Oh, by the way, remember to bring your own dry food. I don’t provide food or water.”

The deputy minister picked up a pen and paper, wrote down the address of his two acres of land, handed it to the middle-aged man in front of him, and then shouted to the long dragon behind him.

"Next person!!"

Just as he finished speaking, a young man with long black hair and a cigarette in his mouth came over and said in a deliberately rough voice, "I have been suffering from insomnia at night recently and can't sleep well."

The deputy minister raised his head upon hearing this, looked him up and down, and then asked thoughtfully, "Young man, are you still having trouble breathing, feeling dizzy, or feeling nauseous?"

The young man gave the deputy minister a thumbs up. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the deputy minister's medical skills were so high that he could see all the symptoms of this body with just a few glances.

Afterwards, the young man was seen sitting carelessly on the chair, looking around at the long queues, and finally turned his gaze to the front and asked in a low voice.

"Deputy Minister, is my illness serious? Is it a terminal illness?"

"Nothing serious!"

The deputy minister shook his head slightly, then leaned back in his chair and instructed the medical ninja standing beside him, "Go find the Sandaime Hokage now and tell him that his son Sarutobi Asuma smokes four packs a day and his head is dizzy."

Asuma's eyes widened in shock, and the lit cigarette fell to the ground from the corner of his mouth, splashing a series of tiny sparks.

next second.

Suddenly, an angry voice was heard in the noisy hall.

"The atmosphere in the village is so tense now, and the store business has plummeted. I just want to help them at this time. As long as I help the store owner, he will have money to buy food, and then the merchants selling food will have money to buy meat, and the merchants selling meat will have money to buy vegetables.

Wouldn’t this revitalize the business environment?”

After saying that, Asma picked up the half-smoked cigarette butt on the ground, turned around and walked away, waving his hand behind him, leaving a few words, "A quack who can only treat illnesses but doesn't understand the importance of the business environment!"

Deputy Minister: “.”

The old man sat on the chair until Asuma disappeared, then he slowly raised his head and instructed another medical ninja, "I was wrong just now, Sarutobi Asuma not only smokes, but also eight packs a day.

By the way, tell the Sandaime-sama that his son still reads adult magazines without restraint and has kidney deficiency. "

The medical ninja standing nearby nodded in agreement, and with a flash of his body, he disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"This old man has a damn vengeful heart!" The deputy minister looked up at the ceiling, blamed himself for a moment, and continued to shout to the team, "Next one!!"

As he spoke, he looked at the long queue and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

As the deputy minister of the Medical Department, he is very sensitive to "war".

Since the day before yesterday, the village has gradually mobilized most of its medical ninjas. At the same time, nearly half of the reserves in the warehouse storing medicines have been called up in the past two days, resulting in the remaining medicines being able to barely support the village's daily medical needs.

"The war is really about to begin!!" The deputy minister smiled bitterly, and then he looked at the other medical ninjas who were busy receiving patients.

There are many patients and few medical ninjas now. Including the deputy minister, there are only five medical ninjas standing in the center of the hall.

Some of them had been working for more than ten hours in a row, and their eyes were already bloodshot, but when they saw the long queue in front of them, they forced themselves to cheer up and shouted to the team.

"Next!"

"Yugao Chunin!"

Hearing this familiar and gentle voice, Xiyan couldn't help but look over.

I saw Uchiha Mikoto standing in front of me wearing a light-colored skirt. Although she had a faint smile on her face, her brows inadvertently revealed a bit of uneasiness and worry.

"Mikoto-sama!" Xi Yan perked up, then pointed at the chair in front of her and asked curiously, "Are you still here because of what happened before?"

During the time when the teacher and the Hokage left the village to attend the Five Kage Summit, Uchiha Mikoto came to the medical department several times to consult her on psychological matters.

It's just that the questions the other party asked were very strange, which left a deep impression on her.

[The wife of the former head of the Uchiha clan, has been dreaming about other men recently.]

Xiyan, who is familiar with books on psychology, knows that big news is coming again.

Usually, dreaming about the opposite sex happens between couples in love, or those who are deeply in love, or those who have some "evil" thoughts.

The appearance of other male figures in Uchiha Mikoto's dreams may very well mean that the man has occupied a place in her heart.

Whether it is out of love or hatred, it is enough to prove the importance of the other person in her heart.

"I haven't heard of any entanglement between Uchiha Mikoto and other men recently."

Xiyan secretly observed the other party for a while, muttering in her heart, "She did have a big conflict with the teacher, but the conflict between the two has lasted for nearly two years. Logically speaking, the teacher is the least suspicious."

Seeing the purple-haired beauty in front of her suddenly lose focus, Mikoto gently waved her hand in front of her eyes and called out softly.

"Yugao Chunin!!"

Xi Yan suddenly came back to her senses and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Lady Mikoto. I was just thinking about what you mentioned last time. Can you still dream about each other at night now?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mikoto's smile froze instantly, and a blush quickly climbed up her cheeks and down her neck.

She subconsciously looked around and found that no one was paying attention to her, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, she leaned forward and answered in a low voice, "Occasionally. I used to dream about it every night, but now the frequency is a little lower."

Xiyan hesitated for a moment, and finally, relying on her status as a doctor, she asked the question in her heart, "Mikoto-sama, do you really not have a good impression of the "man" in your dream? If so, please tell me, it will be more conducive to treatment."

Uchiha Mikoto was slightly stunned when she heard this. She suddenly remembered the scene when her heartbeat suddenly accelerated at Asuka's house not long ago. She couldn't help but take a deep breath, as if to build up confidence for herself, and said in a firm tone.

"No, even if I dream about that person, I just want to defeat him in the dream, and I don't have the slightest thought of liking him."

Although she said so, Xiyan still looked at the other person with a somewhat strange look in her eyes.

"You can't defeat that man in reality, so you defeat him in your dream?" The corners of her mouth drooped slightly, and she shook her head subconsciously. "A typical method of spiritual victory and the desire to achieve self-affirmation."

However, when Yugao secretly observed Uchiha Mikoto and noticed the remaining redness on the other's cheeks, the gossipy heart that had just been suppressed surged up again.

"It's obvious that he has a crush on someone!!" After muttering to herself, she saw that Mikoto didn't seem willing to mention it, and Xiyan knew what to do and didn't ask any more questions. She just straightened her body and asked in confusion.

"Mikoto-sama, from my observation just now, I found that you don't seem to be sick. What is the purpose of your visit to the medical department?"

"I'm here to receive psychological counseling!" Mikoto whispered the purpose of her trip.

Ever since she guessed that war was coming, she had trouble sleeping, and her dreams were all about Itachi dying on the battlefield, which was why she seldom dreamed of Uchiha Asuka recently.

After leaving Asuka's house, her mood hit rock bottom.

Considering that the entire ninja world is facing a catastrophe, whether Itachi can participate in the Fourth Ninja World War in the future seems to be less important. After all, Asuka said that this battle is a "one-wave flow".

It was not until then that Xi Yan noticed that beneath Mikoto's exquisite makeup, there was an unconcealable haggardness.

She quickly stood up and called a medical ninja to take over, then led Mikoto into a quiet office, poured her a glass of warm water, and asked softly.

"Mikoto-sama, what happened to you?"

These gentle words seemed to have magical power, gently soothing some of the fatigue in Mikoto's heart.

She raised her head slightly and looked at the girl in front of her, and the memories of two years ago came flooding back.

At that time, she was just a rookie and had to call Uchiha Asuka to come and clean up her mess from time to time. Now, after a period of time, she has become an excellent medical ninja and her reputation has spread beyond the village.

"It's so lucky for a ninja to grow up in a peaceful era!" Mikoto secretly sighed in her heart, and then said softly, "I just feel that my life has suddenly lost its direction, and I don't know what to do."

After learning the enemy's intelligence from Asuka, she was filled with pessimism.

It's not that she has no hope, she just thinks the chances of the five major ninja villages winning are slim.

If the coalition of the five major ninja villages is unfortunately defeated and the ninja world is destroyed, Itachi and Sasuke will not be able to escape the disaster.

at this time.

Xiyan didn't think about it at all. Thinking of the topic that Mikoto asked about last time, "I often dream about a certain man", her thoughts instantly went off track.

After all, this kind of thing is very common.

As a well-known psychologist in Konoha Village, she receives many women who encounter similar problems every day, and most of these women are divorced.

For women, divorce means major changes in many aspects of life. They will be full of self-denial, despair about the future, and believe that they see no hope in this life.

Confusion will naturally arise.

Xiyan asked after thinking for a moment.

"Mikoto-sama, are you confused about the future?"

Mikoto nodded gently, and her gentle voice became much deeper. "I just feel a little unwilling and regretful. I always feel like I can do something, but I don't know what I can do."

"Reluctant? Regretful?"

Catching the key words in the conversation, Xi Yan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a flash of lightning flashed through her mind, "Is this guy unwilling to get a divorce?"

Recalling what Mikoto had consulted a few days ago, [frequently dreaming about a man and defeating him in the dream], she immediately had a guess in her mind.

"If that man is Uchiha Fugaku, then everything can be explained by the desire for control," Xi Yan murmured to herself, with a glimmer of enlightenment in her eyes.

Thinking of this, she looked Uchiha Mikoto up and down, and asked a seemingly irrelevant question in a tentative tone, "Mikoto-sama, the man you often dream about, could it be Uchiha?"

Mikoto raised her eyebrows slightly, but soon nodded.

It was not surprising that she could guess that the person in front of her was Uchiha Asuka's student.

If Uchiha Asuka hadn't dragged her to look through adult magazines that night, causing her body to feel strange and embarrassed, she wouldn't have met that guy in her dream.
