The main Hokage man will only hinder my speed in making hand seals

Five days passed in a flash, and the second exam was over. Only 27 groups were left out of the 8 groups, and a total of 24 people passed.

The last exam is the individual competition, and before that, there is a preliminary round.

In other words, only 12 people at most can enter the final assessment.

Qinghe asked the two puppets who served as his teammates to give up, and then went to check the arrangements for the preliminaries.

"My opponent is Kiba, what about you?" Naruto asked the others curiously.

Sakura fights against Ino, and Sasuke fights against Konoha's former senior Akado Kai.

They all looked at Haruka.

"It's a bye."

In addition to Haruka's two puppets, a ninja named Kabuto also withdrew from Konoha.

There were 21 people, an odd number, so Qinghe was lucky enough to advance directly to the finals.

After finalizing the arrangements for the preliminaries, the embarrassed group who had just emerged from the Death Forest could finally go and rest.

Naruto was excitedly looking for Kakashi outside. He wanted to tell Kakashi that they were about to enter the finals!

Classes 3, 8, and 10 were quickly picked up by their respective teachers, but Naruto looked again and again but couldn't find Kakashi.

"Teacher Kakashi, he didn't come..." Naruto was very frustrated.

Sakura thought of Kakashi's usual style and guessed, "Maybe he's late again?"

Sasuke was also a little disappointed, but he was really tired, so he took the initiative to suggest: "Let's go back and rest and prepare for the preliminaries."

The preliminaries were about to begin, and they had to hurry up and get rid of the fatigue and tension of the past five days.

As for the good news, wouldn’t it be better to tell us after we reach the finals?

"Naruto! Sakura! Sasuke!" Iruka ran towards them while waving.

He was Naruto's teacher in the Ninja School and also Naruto's favorite teacher.

Iruka smiled and invited them warmly: "After you wash up, do you want to go eat barbecue? It's my treat."

"Kakashi is busy for the time being, so please let me celebrate with you."

Although the barbecue was very tempting, Naruto and the others were more concerned about Kakashi: "What happened to Kakashi-sensei?"

Iruka sighed and explained to them, "He was attacked the night before yesterday. Although he is not seriously injured, he still needs to be observed in the hospital for a few days."

"Who did this?" Sasuke frowned.

Could it really be Orochimaru?

"He said it's not convenient to tell me the details." Iruka scratched his head embarrassedly.

He could only try to tell them what he knew: "There are two people."

"One tried to steal Kakashi's eyes, and the other helped Kakashi, but then beat him up."

In short, it was a big brawl among the three of them. The noise they made was so loud that it alerted the patrolling ninjas.

The two men then fled and Kakashi was taken to the hospital.

"Kakashi told you not to worry, he will be discharged tomorrow."

Sasuke looked at the sky and discussed with Naruto and Sakura: "In this case, let's just prepare for the game."

The one who grabbed the eye was definitely Orochimaru, but who was the other one?

What other ridiculous things are waiting for them in this Chunin Exam?

Sasuke sighed sadly. Even if someone told him that Konoha was about to be destroyed, he would not find it outrageous.

-

Konoha Hospital, inpatient department.

Kakashi was lying on the hospital bed, but he still stubbornly covered the lower half of his face with the quilt.

Lin put down the dinner she prepared for him and casually asked, "Are you really going to be discharged from the hospital tomorrow?"

Kakashi's voice came from under the quilt: "It's just some external injuries, not serious."

Many people know that he has a Sharingan.

But since it was given to him by his best friend, its origin was legitimate, and not many people dared to rob it directly.

When Orochimaru was still in the village, he did not show any interest in Kakashi's Sharingan.

God knows why Orochimaru suddenly stared at this eye.

Kakashi's eyes were blank, he was still thinking about what happened that night.

Who is that person wearing the mask?

"Dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

Kakashi was startled awake and came to his senses: "Come in."

"Good~evening~" Qinghe drew out the words and greeted the two people in the room with his hands behind his back.

Lin replied gently, "Good evening, Haruka-sama, you must have had a hard time taking the exam."

Kakashi looked dead, "Why are you here?"

Don't tell him you're here to care about him, he won't believe it.

Qinghe did not answer immediately, but walked briskly to Lin's side.

She took out her hand hidden behind her back and drew a line on each side of Lin's cheek.

"Huh? What?" Lin reached out and touched it, but didn't feel anything strange.

Could it be another strange medicine?

Kakashi could see clearly, and he told Lin: "She drew two lines of purple paint on your face."

Oh, it's just paint, that's nothing. Lin was relieved instantly.

"I'm here to chat with Kakashi. Lin can go back and rest first." Qinghe explained his purpose.

"Uh..." Kakashi reacted and refused: "No, I'm fine being alone."

Go, take Qinghe away quickly, don’t leave her behind to torture him.

Lin smiled obediently, then stood up: "Kakashi, remember to have dinner, I'll be leaving first."

"Master Qinghe, please don't stay out chatting too late."

Lin left, the door of the ward closed gently, and the hope in Kakashi's eyes disappeared.

He stared at the ceiling with despair, silently reducing his presence.

Haruka sat down on the empty stool next to the bed: "Ah, Kakashi, you don't look like you want to pay attention to me."

"...No." Could Kakashi admit it? Of course not.

The main thing is that she always does some seemingly reasonable things to stir up his emotions and then make him cool down.

He couldn't argue with her, and in the end he could only endure it alone.

"Don't rub the paint on your hands on my sheets and quilt. There is water and paper towels nearby."

Kakashi was glad that he had been paying attention to her movements.

Qinghe calmly withdrew his hand and took two pieces of paper from the bedside table next to him to wipe the paint.

"Can I eat the apples in your fruit basket?"

Look, here it comes again.

Kakashi reluctantly promised, "Please."

He thought to himself that at least he had stopped her from soiling the bed.

There was no way to escape, so Kakashi took the initiative to start the conversation: "So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

No one comes to visit you for no reason. He absolutely did not believe that she would come to chat with him for no reason.

Haruka picked a plump apple and asked him, "Did you benefit a lot from fighting one of the three ninjas?"

Kakashi: “???” It turns out that she was the one who brought Orochimaru here?

Does he have a grudge against her? Why does he treat him like this?

“…Give me back the apple.”

Find someone to beat him up and ask him if it's fun... Are his human blood apples delicious? :)

"Hey, Kakashi."

Qinghe held the apple without letting go, but stared at him with curved eyebrows and eyes: "Did you see it?"

What did you see? Kakashi looked back at her, confused.

"That's right, the person you want to meet." Qinghe winked at him.

She felt that her intelligence and talent were fully worthy of the apple.

If Orochimaru is tricked into stealing Kakashi's Sharingan, then the original owner Obito will definitely not sit idly by.

After all, Haru and Haru had spotted Obito sneaking around in Konoha several times, and he was definitely secretly observing Konoha.

This is a win-win idea. What's wrong with her eating Kakashi's apple?

Qinghe would never return the apple, he'd better be sensible.

"Kakashi?" Why is he distracted?

“……” Kakashi felt that the quilt seemed to be too tight and seemed a little hot.

He pulled the quilt covering his face down a little so that his nose could breathe fresh air.

I have to say that warm light can indeed easily create illusions.

After the heat on his face subsided, he belatedly reacted: "You mean, Obito?!"

"Bingo~" Qinghe didn't quite understand, so he humbly asked: "What else? Are you changing your mind?"

"... Could you please use less subtle expressions?"

Kakashi was completely awake. As expected, he still had to remember the nature of this guy Qinghe.

"Wait..." He sat up suddenly: "So you asked Lin to go back just now?"

Qinghe smiled calmly: "Fishing enforcement."

Everyone told Obito that the Moon Eye Project was fake, fake! He just wouldn't listen.

Qinghe had caught him twice before, and since then he has refused to even go to the vicinity of Qing Kingdom.

Zetsu is gone, and the Akatsuki organization has been reorganized, but he is still insisting. I really don't know why he can be so stubborn.

He is Uchiha-like in his sensitivity and suspicion? He should use it where he should be suspicious.

If they can't persuade this stubborn donkey, they will let him go.
