Naruto: I open a pet shop in the Ninja world.

Chi Qing looked at the man standing aside, seeming to be worried about something.

"It's okay, you can just say it directly." The Third Hokage still trusted the people around him.

After taking a deep breath, Chi Qing told everyone about the undercover agent in Konoha.

The Sandaime seemed to understand what Chi Qing meant: "You didn't say just now that you suspected that there was an undercover agent in your investigation team?"

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Shisui explained some suspicious details of the return process.

"The reason they failed this time may be because they underestimated the strength of Shisui and me." Otherwise, they would definitely send stronger people to stop them.

The Sandaime had a heavy face and said, "You have done a good job. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Go back and rest, kids."

···

Chi Qing and Shisui left the Hokage building together, neither of them speaking.

It was not until the fork in the road that Chi Qing said, "See you next time."

Shisui hummed lightly.

The first thing Chi Qing did when he got home was to wash himself inside and out.

But no matter how he washed, Chi Qing felt that the smell of blood on his body could not be dissipated.

Just lying on the bed and closing your eyes, the terrified-looking ninja from the Land of Lightning appeared in front of you.

It was not until this moment that Chi Qing truly realized that where he was was no longer virtual, but everything was real.

They are real people with flesh and blood.

And I just took their lives like this.

I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so I just gave up, changed my clothes, and ran up the mountain.

The wooden stakes for practicing physical skills have been replaced one after another by them.

Even if it is replaced with a stronger material, it won't last long.

After Chi Qing exhausted all his energy to vent his feelings, he lay back on the ground, and the bright moon just illuminated this area.

Chi Qing couldn't believe that a life had just passed away from his hands.

The feeling of the worldview being shattered at this moment: "Fuck this world."

"Are you crying?"

Chi Qing was shocked when he suddenly remembered another person's voice.

"No." Chi Qing covered his face with his hands. He didn't cry, but his expression now was definitely uglier than crying.

Chi Qing rubbed his face and said, "It's the middle of the night. Why are you running here instead of sleeping?"

"Didn't you also come here in the middle of the night without sleeping, like you were crazy?" The child retorted to Chi Qing.

"No more chocolate for you."

"childish."

The two half-grown children just sat and lay there without saying anything.

A long time passed, so long that Chi Qing thought Uchiha Itachi had fallen asleep, then Uchiha Itachi spoke.

"What's wrong with you today? It's unlike you." Chi Qing always gave him the impression of being as calm as the surface of a lake.

"......" Chi Qing did not speak. The ninja's mission could not be revealed.

"I could probably guess it even if you didn't tell me." Uchiha Itachi knew that Chi Qing and Shisui had gone on a mission for the first time, and they had failed.

But the Third Generation privately praised Chi Qing and Shisui, and he heard his father mention this tonight.

Being able to make the usually gentle Chi Qing lose her composure like this must be a hurdle that every ninja has to go through.

"I don't know what the situation was, but if you didn't do it, you and Brother Shisui would be the ones to die, right?"

Chi Qing's heart felt like it was hit hard.

Yeah, he was just trying to survive.

If he hadn't killed the Lightning Ninja at that time, more of Konoha's companions would have died.
