Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

"call--"

Yuina was still in shock, feeling both embarrassed and happy at the same time, her face suddenly turning red with embarrassment.

"Ito!!"

She turned around and punched Ito Toru with her little pink fist without hesitation.

"what!"

Ito Toru deliberately showed a look of pain.

"I was kind enough to help you up and keep you from falling, and this is how you repay me?"

"oops!"

Yukina quickly broke free from his arms, then came forward with a worried look on her face: "Are you okay? Let me see where you're hurt."

"I'm hurt here."

Ito Toru pointed to his left and said, "You've hurt my heart."

"..."

Yuina clenched her fists, and anger reappeared on her pretty face.

"Hahahaha! I'm just kidding."

Seeing that Yuina might punch him again at any time, Ito Toru quickly stopped smiling and looked serious.

"Stop saying these weird things in the future."

Yukina held her forehead with her hand.

What she just said was so strange that it made her scalp tingle.

"Okay, okay, I understand..."

The two chatted casually and unknowingly reached the top of Hokage Rock.

This is a platform with railings on the edge to prevent people from accidentally falling off.

Normally, there would be many ninjas resting here.

Because it is located very high, the wind is strong and you can also overlook the scenery below.

But now, the platform was empty, with only the sound of leaves blowing past.

“Are you afraid of heights?”

Toru Ito looked at Yuina. She was a little afraid to walk to the edge and could only move towards the railing carefully little by little.

"Of course I'm not afraid! Who said I'm afraid?"

Yuina first grabbed the railing, then raised her head confidently.

"I'm not afraid at all!"

"really?"

Seeing Yuina in this state for the first time, Toru Ito showed a wicked smile on his face and walked over here.

"What are you doing! Don't come close to me!"

There was a hint of panic in Yukina's eyes.

"Don't be afraid. We are here to take a walk together, so of course we should enjoy the scenery together."

Ito Toru came to her side and turned to look at the Konoha Village below.

“It’s really easy to see everything from here…”

Looking down from a high place, the houses and people seem to have shrunk, which is another wonderful perspective.

Strangely enough, after Toru Ito came to her side, the uneasiness and nervousness in Yuina's heart suddenly disappeared.

She also looked down along with Ito Toru.

"..."

Sure enough, even though he was by my side, I was still a little nervous when I saw this scene...

Yukina thought to herself.

She had never stood so high before.

Her heart was beating fast, thump thump, and Yukina twisted her legs nervously. Fortunately, her legs didn't feel weak, but just a little...

"Yukina?"

At this time, Toru Ito, who was standing by, just withdrew his gaze from the distance. He noticed something unusual about Yuina and came over.

"What's wrong with you? You don't look well?"

He looked at Yukina with concern, a worried look on his face.

"Didn't you get enough rest?"

"I'm fine!"

Yukina quickly raised her head and happened to meet Ito Toru's eyes.

This guy is still quite good looking...

When she saw Ito Toru's clear and handsome face, for some reason, a strange thought suddenly emerged in Yukina's mind.

She muttered to herself: How strange, I never thought it was so beautiful...

It’s like a piece of jade that has been in the dark is suddenly illuminated by the sun.

Yukina didn't know why, she only knew that her heartbeat was speeding up unconsciously.

Like a deer running around.

"Ok?"

Toru Ito saw her face slowly becoming flushed with a lovely blush, so he deliberately teased her and moved closer to her.

"Hey, do you have a fever? I heard that if you put your foreheads close together, you can measure whether your temperature is normal. Do you want to try it?"

"really?"

"Just try and you will find out."

Then they put their foreheads together.

Yuina felt a cool sensation on her forehead. Because they were very close, she could smell the sunflower-like scent emanating from Toru Ito's body.

Just like blooming brilliantly under the scorching sun.

It made her heart beat faster for a moment.

At the same time, for some unknown reason, a bold idea suddenly came to Yuina's mind.

She closed her eyes, mustered all her courage, and moved forward gently.

Booji.

? !

Now it was Ito Toru's turn to be stunned.

The soft touch and the hot breath, just at this moment a mountain breeze blew, Yuina's hair swayed gently, exuding the fresh scent of gardenia.

Time seems to be frozen at this moment.

"Well!"

Yuina didn't move away until she could hardly breathe. Her eyes seemed to be filled with a pool of spring water as she looked deeply into Toru Ito's slowly opening eyes.

"Yukina, you..."

While Toru Ito was still savoring the touch just now, Yuina's face suddenly turned red!

The courage I had raised up faded away like the tide at this moment.

What came up again was confusion and panic.

What have I done?!

Ahhhh what should I do!

Yukina's mind was in a mess, but her body reacted instinctively like a ninja.

"I, I'm leaving first!"

She stammered, and without waiting for Ito Toru to answer, she used the instant body movement technique and disappeared in an instant!

"Hey!"

Toru Ito subconsciously reached out his hand, just like Erkang, but he had already lost sight of Yuina.

“Just left like that.”

She pursed her lips, and the scent of gardenia seemed to still linger on them.

The afternoon sun was exceptionally bright, and large white clouds were floating across the clear blue sky.

Toru Ito stood alone in the bright sunshine.

Recalling the girl's shy blushing cheeks, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

"It's a nice day."

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was smiling like a chrysanthemum.

In the glass ball in front of him, a scene of Ito Toru smiling appeared.

"Such a pure love is really wonderful."

The haze cast in his heart by the events that had happened during this period was also swept away at this moment.

He was like an old man who had found candy. He took off his glasses and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes while smiling.

These are touching tears.

Because he suddenly remembered something that happened a long, long time ago.

It seemed that he had once stood on that platform with someone, looking at the Konoha Village below, sitting and drinking tea and chatting.

"Danzo, your sacrifice was not in vain..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and turned off the telescope jutsu.

He originally wanted to find Toru Ito to discuss when to go out to support Mito Kado En.

But now, let's take it slow...

There are not many moments like this in life.
