Standing in the living room of the man's house, looking around, everything was in ruins.

Maybe it's not even a living room, it's just a small cubicle connected to the main entrance, with very few furnishings, except for the wooden table and chairs in the center that look a bit interesting.

The tables and chairs should be handmade by myself. The craftsmanship is good, but they are not painted and feel a bit rough. Considering that the man sells wood for a living, I don't think it's strange.

After a while, the door to the bedroom was gently opened, the man came out, and closed the door carefully.

Qiao Qiannuo asked: "How is she?"

Facing Qiao Qiannuo, the man was still a little scared, his eyes evaded and said: "Asleep."

Then the man came forward again, held a photo in his hand and handed it over, saying: "Master Ninja, please look, this is my daughter."

Qiao Qiannuo took the photo and looked at it carefully.

This is a half-length photo of a little girl, perhaps taken during a festival, and she was still wearing a kimono.

With just one glance, Qiao Qiannuo was immediately stunned.

The slightly outdated kimono cannot hide the girl's charm at all.

He had only heard Kakashi mention it before that the missing garden in Sanki Town was very beautiful. As for how beautiful it was, he didn't have a clear impression.

Now that he saw the photo, he realized that Yuanzi's original appearance could not be summed up by beauty at all.

Her long hair was tied up, her big black eyes seemed to be filled with stars, her small nose was beautiful and straight, and her red lips seemed to be smiling at any time.

Especially in the middle of the eyebrows, there is an eyebrow mole, which adds a charming touch to the girl.

This is just a child. If he grows up, it will be fine. The Fire Nation will be destroyed!

Of course, Qiao Qiannuo doesn't care at all whether the Fire Nation will be destroyed or not, but for people like him who like little girls, the girl in the photo is like a little angel. The fear melted away.

He just muttered: "What a pity!"

Unfortunately, the girl in the photo has disappeared forever, and the Fire Nation has escaped disaster. Although the girl's soul is still alive, it has taken over the body of another girl.

The girl who should have been called Keiko. Although she is very beautiful, she is completely incomparable to the girl in the photo.

Qiao Qiannuo couldn't help but think about what if Orochimaru had transferred Keiko's soul into Sonoko's body when he was conducting the immortal reincarnation experiment.

But as soon as the thought came to his mind, Qiao Qiannuo immediately shook his head.

No, no, how could a connotation-oriented person like me have such an idea?

Shouldn't I have appeared earlier and rescued both Sonoko and Keiko before Orochimaru was reincarnated?

What's more, what really moved him was Yuanzi's kindness and perseverance, her strong heart that she had to bravely support even if she was trapped in endless darkness.

And not just Keiko's beautiful body.

It is said that Orochimaru must be a psychopath. He can't stand the beauty in the world, so the more beautiful the existence, the more he wants to destroy it.

Continue to mourn.

A long time passed before Qiao Qiannuo reluctantly returned the photo to the man.

After the man took the photo, he seemed a little hesitant, as if he wanted to ask but didn't dare.

Qiao Qiannuo said coldly: "If you want to ask, just ask, I'm a fool!"

Qiao Qiannuo would not have a good look on this guy who made Yuanzi sad.

The man hunched over and smiled forcefully. The scene of grabbing gravel with clay hands just now still echoed in his mind. Qiao Qiannuo's status as a ninja always had a great deterrent effect on civilians like him.

But out of concern for his daughter, the man couldn't help but ask: "Master Ninja, what happened to my daughter?"

He didn't ask where his daughter was, but asked what happened to his daughter. So, the man must have recognized Sonoko.

Qiao Qiannuo snorted coldly and asked disdainfully: "Do you recognize it?"

What a masterpiece!

Doesn't this bastard know how much damage his actions just now will cause to Yuanzi?

In response to this, the man shook his head and said with a bitter look on his face: "I don't know, it's just that when I hold that girl, I can't help but want to get close to her, just like holding my daughter."

Is not this nonsensical?

She is your daughter, how can you resist getting close to her?

"Let me tell you this, she is indeed your daughter. It's just that for some reason, her appearance has changed dramatically, so you can't recognize her."

When the man heard this, his body froze suddenly, his eyes were panicked, and he couldn't believe it.

Qiao Qiannuo added: "Think about it carefully, if she is not your daughter, why would she not be able to help but call out daddy when she saw you, why would she throw herself at you, and why, when you held her, would I want to be close to her.”

"Or do you think I'm lying to you, that the girl is acting, and that the two of us are joining forces to plot something against you."

Then Qiao Qiannuo spread his hands, showed his surroundings, and continued: "But look at how poor your family is. You can't even feed yourself. I'm a ninja, but I can plot against you." What?"

After hearing this, the man sat down on the ground and murmured Sonoko's name.

Suddenly, he straightened up again and asked, "Ninja-sama, can I go see the garden again?"

This man finally believed Qiao Qiannuo's words. Even though he was still very confused about the huge change in Yuanzi's appearance, the flesh-and-blood love buried deep in his bones could not be faked at all.

This girl he had never seen before was his biological daughter.

Qiao Qiannuo waved his hand impatiently and said: "Go quickly, go quickly, do you need my permission to see your daughter?"

When the man walked into the bedroom, a stone in Qiao Qiannuo's heart finally fell to the ground.

As long as the man can recognize Sonoko, then his promise to Sonoko has been fulfilled, and then he can rest assured to look for Tsunade.

Well, it's time to leave.

But why, I always feel a little unwilling.

Now that I'm gone, I don't think I'll ever see Sonoko again!

As time goes by, Yuanzi may completely forget about him.

The benefactor who rescued her from the quagmire of despair, the brother who gave her light and hope, and personally escorted her back to her father.

But so what, he and Yuanzi are not the same person after all. He is the incarnation of the law and shoulders the tasks assigned by the mother of the sacred tree. His future is doomed to twists and turns.

And Yuanzi is just a commoner with no guarantee of strength. She grew up safely under the protection of her father and then lived a plain but peaceful life like those ordinary people. That was all she needed.

Well, let's go!

There is no need to even say goodbye, just treat it as an incidental episode in the long journey of life.

Looking back, everything is a thing of the past.

Gently, he walked out of the room, gently untied the horse rope, led the two horses and left quietly, for fear of disturbing the sleeping Yuan Zi.

But at this moment, a voice sounded.

"Ninja-sama, are you leaving?"

It was Yuanzi's father, standing at the door, looking in a daze.

Qiao Qiannuo looked over and replied casually: "Treat your daughter well, bye!"

He waved and walked away.

Unexpectedly, the man suddenly rushed over and knelt in front of Qiao Qiannuo.

"Ninja-sama, please, take Sonoko away!"

As he spoke, tears were streaming down his face.
