Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

“Wow, it’s really delicious!”

Yahiko finished the food in the bowl quickly, a satisfied smile on his face, and seemed to be still immersed in the wonderful taste.

Slurp~ Slurp~

He was so unsatisfied that he even licked the bottom of the bowl clean.

"There are still kind people in this world!"

He said with full emotion.

I feel warm in my belly and I believe in the light again!

"Uh-huh!"

Xiaonan, who was standing beside her, also nodded in agreement. Then, she calmly pushed the half-finished bowl of meat porridge in front of Yahiko and said gently, "Eat this too, Yahiko. I can't eat any more."

"Okay! Then I won't be polite to you~"

Yahiko smiled widely, happily took the meat porridge handed to him by Konan, and drank it with relish again.

Gulu gulu~

Xiaonan was standing next to him and watched him drink it all, and his eyes became warm.

After eating this bowl of delicious lean meat and vegetable porridge, the two felt their whole bodies filled with warmth and strength.

It was as if the thick dark clouds in the country were parted, and the whole body was illuminated by the warm sunshine, feeling comfortable and cozy.

"Let's go, Xiaonan."

Yahiko slowly stood up, patted the rain off his body, and his eyes became firm again.

"It's time for us to head to the next town," he said softly, his voice calm and steady.

Xiaonan stood aside, nodded silently, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

After all, this place was a rare one where people could feel a little warmth, but she also knew that they were destined not to stay here for long.

"Well, let's go."

Just as the two were about to turn around and leave, Yahiko suddenly frowned, as if he heard some unusual noise.

He immediately stopped, looked around vigilantly, then quickly squatted down and motioned Xiaonan to hide with him.

Seeing this, Konan bent down without hesitation and hid in the dark corner with Yahiko.

She watched the movements around her nervously, her hands clenched into fists, her nerves tense.

As time passed, the atmosphere became more tense and depressing.

Finally, the sound of light footsteps reached their ears - someone was coming!

Yahiko and Konan held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

"No one discovered it?"

"Definitely not!"

In the darkness came the sound of two men talking in low voices.

"Those two brats from Konoha Village are too arrogant!" One of the men said viciously, "We must teach them a lesson!"

"That's right!" Another voice echoed, "These two brats have been making a lot of money recently! Tsk tsk tsk, it's such a waste for a kid to have so much money. We might as well take it away and let the money do what it should do!"

"And these are originally the silver coins of our Rain Country!"

"That's right, it makes a lot of sense!"

"Quack, quack, quack!"

In the darkness, three unpleasant voices laughed, like a meeting of crows.

"But... can we really do it with just the three of us?" After laughing, someone suddenly hesitated: "I heard that the little girl is quite skilled and seems to have received professional ninja training. She might even be a ninja!"

"This..." Another person was also a little hesitant: "Although the three of us can fight, we are nothing in front of the ninja!"

"Useless! What depressing words are you talking about?"

The man who spoke first sneered: "Do you think I can't think of it? I have already expected it! So I specially invited a real ninja to come to help! With him, nothing can be impossible."

"Of course, he will take the lion's share of the money that comes later."

"That's definitely no problem, as long as we can succeed! The three of us can live freely again!"

"Quack, quack, quack!"

Another burst of unpleasant laughter.

what? !

Yahiko and Konan looked at each other, shocked and angry at the same time. These bad guys actually wanted to deal with the rare good people in the Rain Country!

And we also asked ninjas to help!

"That's great! Let's go! We'll go and cause trouble for them now! They are all from Konoha anyway, so it doesn't matter if they die here!" Some people couldn't wait any longer.

"Don't worry, the ninja master hasn't arrived yet, let's see them first and don't let them get away!"

After chatting for a while, the three of them dispersed, each found a direction, and began to wait.

Yahiko and Konan hid well and did not come out until they were sure it was safe.

"What should we do? Yahiko!"

Xiaonan was a little anxious: "These people are really too much!"

"We can't just stand by and watch. We have to find a way to remind them!"

Yahiko took a deep breath, his mind racing: "I remember they've sold out of porridge, let's find out where they are first!"

"it is good!"

It didn't take long for the two to find the unaware Toru Ito and Yuina on the next street. They had found a seat at a breakfast stall.

"Two servings of oden! A plate of pickles! Five skewers of BBQ and a bowl of ramen."

Ito Toru shouted, then said to Yukina, "I've finished ordering mine, what do you want to eat?"

"..."

You guys really can eat!

Yukina was quite speechless: "I want a skewer of grilled chicken and five kimbaps."

"Will this be enough to fill you up?"

Ito Toru looked at her with concern: "No need to save money, we have been making a lot of money recently!"

"As a ninja, you must always be hungry!"

Yukina glared at him, so Ito Toru shrugged and stopped trying to persuade her.

"The steamed dumplings are ready, please enjoy~"

The stall owner brought out a plate of fragrant, steaming dumplings.

"Let's eat first."

Toru Ito was eager to eat and picked up his chopsticks, ready to start enjoying the food.

"You really don't want to come?"

Before eating, he did not forget to ask Yukina: "This steamed dumpling is really delicious!"

"I really don't want to eat it, just eat yours."

Yuina crossed her arms across her chest, looking like she was going to watch you eat.

"alright."

"Then I'll start!"

Toru Ito stretched out his chopsticks to the plate and was about to pick up a steamed dumpling to taste it.

Swish-!

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out from the side, picked up the steamed dumplings on the table and ran away!

???

Toru Ito was stunned immediately, with the chopsticks still in his hand, and hadn't reacted yet. He just stared blankly at a familiar orange-haired figure, who was carrying his plate of steamed dumplings and running farther and farther away!

"Be bold!"

The stall owner was furious: "Where did this little thief come from? He even stole the things of such a kind person!"

"If I catch you, you'll be in big trouble!"

He was ready to roll up his sleeves and chase after this ignorant little thief!

"Forget it."

Ito Toru quickly spoke up to dissuade the boss: "He's still a child, he must be very hungry, just give me another plate, and that one will be on my account too."

"You are such a kind person!"

The stall owner showed an admiring look and stopped chasing.

"Wait a minute, the steamed dumplings will be ready soon!"

Yahiko was running madly all the way, and after running a few hundred meters away, he turned back and found that Toru Ito and the others had not caught up with him, but had ordered another one!

???

It's over! Now I'm going to be misunderstood as a thief who repays kindness with enmity!

He felt ashamed and anxious. He originally wanted to use this method to lure the two kind brothers and sisters to catch up with him, and then tell them secretly.

But in the end he failed because of the other party's kindness!

"Ugh……"

Yahiko sighed, turned around to look for Konan, and was about to discuss what to do next, but his pupils suddenly shrank!

"Yahiko... I'm sorry..."

Konan, with a look of fear and anxiety on her face, had a kunai held to her neck. Next to her was a Rain Ninja wearing a gas mask!
