Shizuka's breath finally stopped, and a figure appeared on the roof. It was Uchiha Fugaku who came hurriedly.

"Cong Fengmo, she is already dead..."

"I know!"

Mo Congfeng leaned over and gave her a final kiss, tears welling up in his eyes but they didn't fall.

"I met Hiruko on the way here. After a brief fight between us, I let him escape using his Wood Release clone. He was fully prepared for my illusion, so I didn't have a chance to use it." Fugaku said calmly.

"Ah."

"Yūhi Shinku died in battle. He died to protect the daimyo." Uchiha Fugaku glanced at the fat man who was still lying on the ground.

"Ah."

Uchiha Fugaku wanted to say more, but Mo Congfeng couldn't help but speak up, "Fugaku, leave me alone."

"Okay, Mo!" Uchiha Fugaku slowly landed, handed over a scroll, patted Mo Congfeng on the shoulder, and then escorted the daimyo away.

Mo Congfeng used the small ninjutsu taught by Beiruhu to condense water balls from the air, slowly cleansing the blood off Shizuka's body, tidying up her remains, and finally packing her up and sealing her with the scroll handed over by Uchiha Fugaku.

It was not until this time that Mo Congfeng felt the excruciating pain when he held the scroll. Mo Congfeng already understood that he had completely lost something.

Mo Congfeng suddenly found it difficult to breathe, the world was spinning, and a drop of cold liquid slid down his equally cold face.

Mo Congfeng stood by the wall, slowly moved to a corridor and sat down, not knowing where to go. He just opened his perception field and listened quietly to the sounds of the world.

About three hours later, Hatake Sakumo came to Mo Congfeng's side, and Mo Congfeng was a little surprised.

"I have met Uchiha Fugaku and know everything here.

After the Third Hokage received the second message from Uchiha Fugaku, he realized that the Daimyo of the Land of Fire might be in danger, and immediately sent two teams of ninjas, led by me, to come to the rescue of the Daimyo.

But you are still a step too late. What are you going to do next?"

After hearing this, Mo Congfeng was struck by lightning and filled with huge regret. It was his pretense of cleverness that delayed Uchiha Fugaku's request for help and wasted half a day, which was precious to Shizuka.

He killed Shizuka in order to get rid of some responsibility! Uchiha Fugaku said that the future has changed, and the change may be Shizuka's avoidable death!

This was the evil consequence of Mo Congfeng's constant attempts to be clever since he met Beiliuhu. Today, he finally tasted the bitterness of this evil consequence!

Mo Congfeng suddenly grabbed the clothes of Hatake Sakumo who was standing next to him and made a painful sound, "I killed them. It's all my fault. If..."

With a slap, Hatake Sakumo slapped Mo Congfeng, "I don't want to see you look so cowardly. This is the life of a ninja. This is not the first day you have been a ninja! Things in the world are unpredictable.

Now I ask you, what are you going to do next? What are you going to do next? "

Mo Congfeng came back to his senses, "I feel tired. I will take a rest here, and then set out again to track down Beiliuhu's trail."

Hatake Sakumo got rid of Mo Congfeng and sighed, "You are indeed tired. I think you have lost your fighting ability. Go back to the village and have a good rest for a while, and then we can talk about other things!

Besides, you may not be able to defeat Beiliuhu with your own strength now. Chasing him now would be tantamount to committing suicide!

We need to have a good discussion and form a new team to deal with Bei Liuhu!"

Mo Congfengmu nodded blankly, and Qi Mu Shumao let out a long breath and left.

……

Mo Congfeng finally returned to his home in Konoha and stood in the courtyard staring at the Kinoshita family. Standing here, he could no longer see that pretty figure.

Kinoshita's house was empty. Kinoshita Ichiro had gone out for something and had not returned yet. Mo Congfeng had not figured out how to explain to Kinoshita Ichiro.

When night fell in the evening, the children returned first. Mo Congfeng gave them some money and asked them to eat ramen by themselves and arrange their own rest. He said he needed some quiet time and wait for Kinoshita Ichiro to return.

After a long time, Kinoshita Ichiro slowly returned home.

Mo Congfeng called him while holding the scroll. Before he could speak, Kinoshita Ichiro burst into tears. "My sister has met with misfortune, right?"

Mo Congfeng nodded slightly stiffly, and Kinoshita Ichiro smiled miserably, "Sure enough, I knew it, otherwise you wouldn't have this expression!"

Mo Congfeng handed over the scroll, "How do you arrange Shizuka's funeral?"

"There is a public cemetery in the village, so we can bury Shizuka there as well." Kinoshita Ichiro took the scroll and pulled Mo Congfeng into the house.

"Tell me how she died. I must avenge her!" Kinoshita Ichiro gritted his teeth, "Is it the revenge of the Uchiha? Do they think we have lost our protection?"

“It has nothing to do with the Uchiha, it was done by Beiruohu, and I will be the one to avenge her.

Jingxiang told me a lot before she died. She knew everything you did for her. You were a competent brother! "Mo Congfeng chose to lie again.

Kinoshita's face changed slightly, "So she knew everything and told you everything.

She had just returned from a D-level mission that day, and I knew what had happened from the look on her face, yet she was trying to hide it from me.

I used the transformation technique to become her and quickly understood the general situation.

I regretted it so much. I regretted leading her onto the path of becoming a ninja. When we first came to Konoha, we had no one to rely on, and becoming a ninja was the best way out.

In the end, I lured that Uchiha to death, but it brought me even greater trouble. I always thought she didn’t know, but it turns out she knew everything, my poor sister…”

Mo Congfeng could no longer remember what Kinoshita Ichiro said afterwards. He just felt drowsy and finally returned to his home with the medical ninjutsu scroll written by Shizuka.

He covered himself with the quilt and slept soundly until he was woken up by the children. Mo Congfeng came out and saw that it was an Anbu ninja who told him that he was summoned by the Third Hokage.

Then the Anbu ninja personally warned Mo Congfeng that the first thing a ninja should do when returning to the village is to report to the Hokage, instead of going home to sleep.

Mo Congfeng nodded slightly to show that he understood, and asked the Anbu ninja to go back first and he would follow soon.

Mo Congfeng still led the children to have breakfast, and after watching the children leave, he walked towards the Konoha Hokage Building.

Mo Congfeng reported and pushed open the door to enter the Third Hokage's office. The Third Hokage put down his pipe and said, "Mo, you're here. I've been waiting for you for a long time.

Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo have already reported to me separately that you performed very well in the incident of Hiruzen's defection. First you saved the three ninjas and then saved the life of the Fire Country Daimyo.

You are the hero of Konoha!"

A sneer from Beiliuhu emerged in Mo Congfeng's mind.
