Sasuke came to the Uchiha Guard early in the morning and knocked on the door of Shisui's office.

"Sasuke, what's wrong?" Shisui put down the document he was correcting, and rubbed his neck, "Why do you look so bad?"

Sasuke found a random place to sit down, and gave Shisui an angry look.

"What else could it be?" He yawned and said, "I can't hold on anymore Brother Zhishui, I have to catch up with you."

Shisui indifferently made a gesture of please, Sasuke lay down relieved and sighed.

"Caring for children is more tiring than doing long-term tasks."

Sasuke's complaint made Shisui feel funny, "But it's also cute, isn't it? If anyone doesn't pester you, it means that he likes you as an uncle."

"I really hope that my brother will come back soon, and my baby will be taken by myself." He turned over, and after a while, he heard shallow, even breathing.

Zhishui felt a little helpless. Although it was very hot, the air conditioner in the office was still fully turned on.He found a thick autumn and winter coat from the closet and covered Sasuke with it, then returned to the desk and continued working.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhishui finally raised his head from the pile of documents, he stretched himself, picked up his cup and prepared to make a cup of coffee to refresh himself.

"Captain Water Stop!"

As soon as he came out of the hot water room, he was stopped by a girl with a ponytail behind him. Shisui turned his head and saw that she was holding a bento, with red cheeks and erratic eyes, but he didn't dare to look directly at him.

"Eiko, what's the matter?" Shisui took a sip of the coffee he had just brewed in the water room, it was a little hot.

"This is a bento I made myself, please don't dislike it." The girl named Eiko raised the box wrapped in the pink bento cloth in her hand and said in a low voice: "I don't think Captain Zhishui usually eats well."

Zhishui was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Hahaha..., thank you."

"Sorry for worrying everyone, I will pay attention in the future." He patted Eiko on the shoulder and said, "But I have an appointment today, so I'm afraid I won't have the chance to taste Eiko's craftsmanship."

Eiko was a little disappointed, she understood that this was probably Shishui's tactful rejection.

How could Zhishui not know what the little girl was thinking, but maybe he hasn't really let go yet.The dusty secrets in memory, I only hope that person will never know.

"You have an appointment?" Sasuke leaned against the door frame, witnessed the whole process that happened in the corridor just now, and said a little puzzled: "Brother Zhishui and his subordinates have a really good relationship."

Zhishui looked at him silently for a while, then sighed.

"You really are a brother."

"Hey!"

Sasuke was a little annoyed by his words, but was interrupted by Shisui before he had time to attack.

"Let's go to your house for dinner later."

"Huh?" Sasuke didn't realize it for a while, "Don't you have an appointment?" Shisui almost laughed out loud again with his blank look.

Holding back his smile, he looked at the young man in front of him who was much more energetic, and he couldn't help asking: "Aren't you going to sleep for a while?"

"Two hours is enough." Sasuke said coolly.

As the captain of the Uchiha Guard, Shisui really hasn't had a good rest for a long time.Although usually there are not many things, but if all kinds of things come to him, he really can't stand it.

"When did itachi come back?"

After the meal, Shisui lay down on the porch of the patriarch's backyard to take a nap, and Sasuke also sat on the side to enjoy the shade. Hearing Shisui's question, he casually said:

"I should be back in the next few days. Last week, I just received a photo from Sister Naye. It seems to be in the country of Kawa..."

"That's great, I really want to take a leave of absence to travel."

What responded to him was Sasuke's helpless wailing, "Brother Shishui, help me bring the dumplings to play for a while, I have something to go out for a while." After speaking, he used the teleportation technique to escape.

"Huh?" Zhishui opened his eyes and looked at the dumpling crawling towards him, a pair of big black eyes on Fenfen's small face.

"Xiaotuanzi woke up?" He picked up the dumpling and walked into the house, "Are you hungry?"

"Ah oh um..." Tuanzi, who can't speak yet, lay on Zhishui's shoulder, making a small milky sound.

"Hey, I finally decided to rest for a long time, and I still have to take care of you, little guy." While making milk powder for the dumpling, he couldn't help poking the dumpling Fenfen's face with his hand.

It made the dumpling "giggle..." laugh.

"The dumpling looks more and more like Itachi." After testing the temperature of the milk, he handed it to the anxious dumpling.

"That's right, it's exactly the same as when Itachi was a child." Mikoto came in from the outside, just in time to see Shisui making milk powder for the dumpling, and said with a smile: "Sasuke must be lazy and ran away, please Shisui to take care of the dumpling."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I often come to Cengfan, just treat it as a coolie in exchange for food." He smiled and hugged the dumpling that was sucking, "And the dumpling is also very attractive."

Meiqin was overjoyed after hearing his words. She looked at Zhishui with a smile, covered her mouth and joked: "It seems that Zhishui likes children very much, and he will be a very good father when he gets married."

Hearing Mikoto's words, Shisui felt as if ten thousand alpacas were throbbing in his heart, and the alpacas all had the face of a weasel, and they shot fire escapes at him one after another.

Zhishui smiled: "It's not in a hurry, I'm too busy with work and don't have time to think about it."

Fortunately, the patriarch who came home suddenly diverted Miqin's attention and rescued Shisui from Miqin's attempt to introduce him to a blind date again.

Zhishui had never felt that the patriarch was so dazzling. He gratefully cast a warm gaze on Fuyue, but was ignored by Fuyue...

Well, people only have the precious grandson in Zhishui's arms in their eyes.

"I haven't seen Xiaotuanzi for a long time, does he miss Grandpa?" The patriarch changed his normal state, completely unable to see his usual seriousness.

Tuanzi also seemed to like Fuyue very much, and when he saw Fuyue came back, he stretched out his hand and wanted to hug him.

Fuyue happily took the dumpling, pinched the dumpling's little nose, "Grandpa took the dumpling to see the goldfish."

When he walked to the door, he didn't forget to turn his head to ask Zhishui to come over, his serious expression made Zhishui wonder if the patriarch would change his face in Sichuan opera.

Aunt Meiqin covered her mouth and smiled at Zhishui: "He's been like this since he got a dumpling, don't mind it."

Shisui nodded, and followed Fu Yue to the pond in the backyard.The shade of the trees in the yard just blocks the edge of the pool, shading some of the scorching sun in the afternoon.

"What's the matter with the patriarch?"

Although Shisui often came to eat, and he and Itachi could be regarded as brothers, he was still a little restrained when facing Fuyue.

"You have been the captain of the security team for two years." Fu Yue teased Tuanzi and asked unhurriedly.

"Yes."

"You've done a pretty good job. In the future, I hope to entrust you with the responsibility of the Uchiha clan."

Fuyue casually said words that surprised Zhishui, and he raised his head blankly to look at the patriarch who was teasing the children, with mixed feelings in his heart.

"But……"

"You are more suitable than Itachi, I am relieved to leave it to you." He seemed to know what Shisui was thinking, and did not let him say it.

"Don't disappoint my expectations, Shisui."

"Yes."

After leaving the patriarch's house, Zhishui was about to go back to the office, but unexpectedly met Huizi at the second corner of the ground.

Eko was wearing a blue yukata, her soft long hair was tied to one side, and the tassels on the side were gently swaying because of her movements.

It was the first time Zhishui saw Eiko dressed like this, he almost didn't recognize it.

She seems to be waiting here deliberately, because no matter whether Zhishui is going home or going back to work, this road is the only way he must pass.

"Captain Zhishui!" She lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at Zhishui, her ears were already as red as her face.She said cautiously and softly: "Can you invite the captain to participate in tonight's summer festival?"

Zhishui instinctively refused, but was interrupted by a familiar voice.

"Oh, I found out the secret of Zhishui!" The sly tone was a bit intriguing, and she jumped from the roof, raising a cloud of fire in the summer evening.

"You're back." Zhishui looked at Naye who kept winking at him, annoyed and funny.

"Why are you alone, Itachi?"

Naye smiled teasingly at the two of them, "He went back to change his clothes, we rushed back to participate in Konoha's festival! Shisui, too, come with this lady."

"I really can't help you..."

He had no choice, if he dared to refuse, the young couple would have to pick him up.

On the bustling streets, there are always a lot of acquaintances, some of them are with their families, and some are secretly dating.

The air is lingering with the scent of food stalls, and Nanoha who is unwilling to fight with the paper net in front of the goldfish stall.

"Huh? Why is Zhishui the only one? Isn't that beautiful lady here this afternoon?"

She finally gave up and threw away the broken nets in her hands.

The crowds in summer made it even hotter, Zhishui sighed dumbfounded, "What do you think about every day, do you want to eat ice cream?"

"Ah, eat! I want chestnut flavor."

"It doesn't have that weird taste."

During the conversation, they were attracted by the sound of "boom~", Zhishui raised his head, and saw delicate flowers surrounded by the dark blue summer night.

"The fireworks display has begun."

"so beautiful!"

Naye looked at the fireworks that were constantly blooming in the sky, and Shisui saw her eyes were bright and her cheeks were red, like apple candy with two kopei candies on it?

Such an abstract metaphor, if she knew it, she would definitely chase after her, right?

"Zhishui has to give others a little chance." She didn't leave her eyes looking at the sky, and the endless words made Zhishui silent.

"Being alone for too long will even forget what loneliness is. But having a family makes you really happy."

"You mean yourself."

"Ah, yes."

She tilted her head and smiled at him.

Surrounded by the streets, behind her is the entire July fire.

"Well, I will."
