Hokage Doujin - Spring Water Ding Dong

"Haven't you come back yet..." Izumitake, who was leaning on the pillars in the corridor and wearing a rust-red furisode kimono, said to Kakashi who was standing in the yard watering the flowers and looking out from time to time.

"Ah?" Kakashi turned around and saw the anxiety and worry on Izumitake's face, so he smiled and comforted people for the first time, "It's okay! Dad is definitely fine for an A-level mission! Maybe It's just that something happened and it was delayed... Maybe I'll open the door and come in after a while!"

"...Hmm." Izumi Take nodded, looking at Kakashi, feeling indescribably moved.

"Ms. Hatake, is Mrs. Hatake there?" At this time, a female voice with mature charm came from the door, and the voice had a kind of gentleness that could comfort people's hearts.

"I'm here. Please come in!" Quanzhu quickly walked to the door with small steps and opened it, only to find that it was the proprietress of Zhihui's kimono shop.

"Really, I'm sorry to bother you early in the morning." The proprietress smiled and bowed slightly to express her apology.

"Miss proprietress, you're being polite." Quanzhu also bowed, returned the gift, and stepped aside, "Miss proprietress, please come in!"

"Hehe, I'm sorry." The proprietress smiled, lifted her skirt and stepped into the Hatake House.

"Then..." Leading the proprietress into the courtyard, Quan Zhu asked, "What's the matter, proprietress?"

"Ah, that's right." The proprietress smiled and stopped to explain, "Actually, when I was arranging the wedding dresses of Mr. and Mrs. Hatake last night, I found that it would look better with some decorations on the hem of the skirt. So I rushed to work overnight on my own initiative. I just took it for you this morning to have a look, if you are satisfied, just keep it as it is now, if you don’t like it... I can also remove it. "

"That's right." Quanzhu smiled, "I'm really sorry to trouble you... May I take a look?"

"Of course!" The proprietress nodded, "Speaking of which, your yard is really beautifully manicured! Mrs. Hatake is indeed an ingenious woman."

"Where, the proprietress is absurd." Quanzhu smiled, and stretched out his hand to invite inside, "Go inside."

"Okay." The proprietress nodded.

"Kakashi, help the proprietress prepare some tea." Quanzhu turned back and said to Kakashi in the yard.

"Oh." Kakashi nodded, and put down the watering can in his hand.

"Ah, it's so pretty!" With the help of the proprietress, Quanzhu put on the processed kimono, looked in the mirror, and exclaimed: "The proprietress also said that I am handy. Let me see, the proprietress's hands are really skillful-after processing, It looks even better!"

"Hehe, as long as Madam likes it!" The proprietress smiled, "Also, Madam doesn't need to call me 'Madam Boss'. My name is Zhihui Tianzi, Madam can just call me Tianzi."

"Then Tianzi don't call me 'Ma'am' anymore." Quanzhu was not restrained, "Call me Xiaozhu."

"How good is this?!" Tian Zi refused.

"Then I have no choice but to continue calling Mrs. Boss!" Quanzhu shrugged and smiled.

"...Heh, well, I'll just rely on Xiaozhu." Tian Zi smiled and nodded, "No wonder Mr. Hatake loves her husband so much... Xiaozhu! Xiaozhu is really a likable person."

"Thank you!" Quanzhu smiled at Tianzi, turned around and looked in the mirror, and asked, "Then, how should the price be calculated?"

"Huh? Ah, Xiaozhu doesn't have to worry about this!" Tianzi stretched out his hand to help Quanzhu straighten the skirt, "Mr. Hatake has already ordered in advance: 'As long as you can make her eyes full of happiness, then you let go Let’s do it! Don’t worry about the price, I, Sakumo Hatake, can still afford it.”

"That's right." He listened blankly to Tian Zi repeating what Shuo Mao said, and Quan Zhu's face looked radiant without makeup.

"Xiao Zhu is so happy." Tian Zi looked up at Quan Zhu and sighed sincerely.

"En." Quanzhu also nodded, admitting that he was really very happy.

"Xiao Zhu!" At this time, the sliding door of the room was roughly opened, and then saw the water door who had kept calm at all times and rarely lost his calm like this rushed into the room covered in blood.Seeing Quanzhu's radiant appearance in the wedding dress, Minato was obviously taken aback for a moment, then regained consciousness immediately, "Xiaozhu, come with me!"

Saying that, Minato led Quanzhu to run out, which was a pain for Quanzhu, who was wearing a wedding dress and was inconvenient to move, and almost tripped several times.Seeing this, Minato could only say "I'm offended" and picked up Izumizhu, speeding up.

Not long after, it seemed that they had reached their destination, and Minato let Quanzhu down.Quanzhu found that not far ahead, there were many people watching something.With a 'thump' in his heart, Quanzhu lifted the hem of his skirt and was about to run over.

"Wait!" Minato held onto Izumi Zhu, put his hands on Izumi Zhu's shoulders, stared calmly at Izumi Zhu, whose face turned pale instantly, and said, "Little Zhu, promise me! No matter what happens, Don't be impulsive!"

"Let me go!" Yang slapped Minato's hand away roughly, and Quanzhu's almost broken voice showed how scared she was.

Lifting the hem of the skirt, Quanzhu ran towards the center of the crowd, leaving Shuimen frozen in place, not knowing what to do.

Pushing aside the crowd, Quanzhu rushed to the center of the crowd.Not surprisingly, I saw Shuo Mao lying on the ground covered in blood, surrounded by Tsunade, Tianshan and other people in the medical class who were trying their best to rescue the seriously injured Shuo Mao.

Seeing this scene, Quanzhu's eyes darkened, his body tilted, and he almost fell to the ground.Fortunately, the onlookers next to him stretched out their hands to help him, so he didn't faint.

Without thinking about thanking him, Quanzhu staggered to Shuo Mao with the hem of his skirt, pushed away the ninja from the medical class who was blocking him, and knelt beside Shuo Mao.

"Suo Mao... I'm here..." It took a lot of effort to barely speak a more complete sentence, and Quan Zhu leaned over to look at the dying Shuo Mao.

"Yeah... you're here..." With a weak smile, Sakumo said, "Really... that bastard Minato... I told him... I don't want you to see me like this ..."

Quanzhu could hardly answer, and could only shake his head desperately, causing the hair that was originally coiled to fall loose, and it was as black as ink.

"Ah... you look really good in the wedding dress..." Shuo Mao raised his hand to touch Quanzhu's pale face, but halfway through the lift, he fell down due to lack of strength, and was caught by Quanzhu just in time , put it on the side of my face, "Hehe... I'm so useless... I almost can't even touch your face... Don't cry..."

"...Suo Mao..." His lips trembled uncontrollably, and Quanzhu managed to find his own voice, "If it looks good... If you think it looks good... I will wear it for you every day...until you Till I get tired of watching..."

"Fool..." Shuo Mao smiled, and raised his finger to wipe away the tears falling from Quan Zhu's big cat eyes, "There's no such thing as a wedding dress that you can wear every day... You won't be afraid of being laughed at if you say it..."

"I don't care, I want to wear it!" Quanzhu's tears kept falling, but no tear dared to block Quanzhu's eyes, desperately trying to record Shuo Mao's face, "Whoever laughs at me, I will No matter! As long as Shuo Mao likes it... I only wear it for Shuo Mao to see..."

"Hehe..." Shuo Mao's smile was powerless, "Quanzhu...can I hug you..."

"Of course, of course!" Quan Zhu nodded desperately, leaned over and hugged Shuo Mao, and pressed his face to Shuo Mao's face, "I said that I belong to Shuo Mao, and Shuo Mao can do whatever he wants... But, don't leave me ...OK?" The tone was pleading, so pitiful that it made Tianshan, who was doing his best to rescue Shuo Mao, red-eyed.

"Little fool..." Shuo Mao smiled, but didn't answer yes or no.The needle-like pain in his chest made Shuo Mao speechless for a while.After finally holding back the pain, Shuo Mao opened his mouth and raised a hand with great difficulty, placing it on Quan Zhu's back, "Quan Zhu, promise me a few things... okay?"

"Tell me, I'll listen." Tears finally blurred his eyes, and Quan Zhu couldn't stop nodding.

"That's great...Izumitake...how happy I am..." Sakumo narrowed his eyes and smiled, with stars shining in his eyes, "The first thing...I want to ask you to take care of Kakashi..."

"..."

"I'm a very irresponsible father..." Sakumo sighed, "When Kakashi was young... in order not to delay the mission... I put him at the neighbor's house... occasionally waiting When I got home, I would be too tired to take care of him...and even forget to pick him up...and when he grew up and went to school...I never prepared any stationery for him... ...He bought it all by himself...Then I heard from the neighbors...Kakashi is really sensible...He can take care of himself at such a young age...When I am decadent...It is also Kakashi The child stayed with me silently, didn't say anything, blocked all the pressure by himself...he didn't say anything, didn't want anything...but I know...that child wants...a warm home..."

"...You are really irresponsible..." Quan Zhu commented.

"Haha... yes..." Shuo Mao smiled, "but now... I can give him a home soon...but I have to leave again..."

"Don't talk about it...I understand..." Quanzhu didn't want to hear Shuo Mao talk about his death anymore, although he also knew that Shuo Mao was bound to die.

"Then let me talk about the second thing..." Shuo Mao continued, "Quanzhu...no matter what happens to me...you must not hate..."

"Why... I can't even hate..." Quanzhu gritted his teeth and asked.

"Because my Spring Bamboo...is the best for laughing..." Shuo Mao explained, but a reason without power moved Quan Zhu, "You are so beautiful when you smile...every night since I met you... As long as I think of your smiling face... there will be a feeling of being saved..."

"...Okay..." Quanzhu nodded, "I promise you...is there anything else?"

"Well, it's not over yet..." Shuo Mao nodded weakly, "Quanzhu...you asked the people in the medical class to stop injecting chakra into my body...it hurts..."

"...Okay." Quanzhu said, reluctantly raised his hand, picked up the white tooth knife that fell beside Shuo Mao from the ground, and waved his hand to the side, which was injecting chakra into Shuo Mao's body to maintain his life. The ninja said unceremoniously, "Back off!"

"This..." The threatened medical ninja hesitated.

"Stand back!" Quanzhu turned his head and stared fiercely at the innocent doctor, "Otherwise I'll kill you!"

"... Maeda, step back." Seeing this, Tianshan waved his hand.

"Yes." Maeda nodded and backed away.

"...You are really strong..." Seeing this, Shuo Mao smiled and said to Quanzhu.

"I should also be stronger with you." Quan Zhu put down his hand and whispered in Shuo Mao's ear, "If I had put a knife to your throat at that time...you wouldn't have left that room to perform that damn mission ..."

"Hehe..." Shuo Mao laughed, "I'm running out of strength... Quan Zhu... I'm going to say one last thing now... You must promise me..."

"I promise you...you tell me." Quanzhu closed his eyes, covering up the despair in them.

"Quanzhu..." Shuo Mao took his last breath and said, "I love you. So...forget about me..."

Quanzhu suddenly opened his eyes wide, feeling Shuo Mao's hand slipping from his back, and the words just now seemed to be the last words in his life.

"Suo Mao..." Quanzhu murmured.

The rising sun shines directly on the land.Quanzhu felt that maybe she was wearing too much, maybe the sun was too hot today... She felt dizzy, inexplicably dizzy; The heat source—Suo Mao's arms—still felt bitingly cold.

"Xiao Zhu! Xiao Zhu!" Quan Zhu vaguely heard a familiar voice calling him, and tried to pull himself away from Shuo Mao's arms, "Xiao Zhu! Xiao Zhu..."

—I probably have heat stroke.

Quanzhu thought so.

- I might need a break...

Gradually closing his eyes, Quanzhu soaked himself in the boundless darkness and coldness.
