Return to the world

Human beings' desire to control makes the gods a little frightened.

I think the gods have been in the world for (not) countless years, have seen all kinds of human beings, and are good at watching and pointing out the country with cold eyes, but this is the first time Mami has experienced the power of a nagging middle-aged woman—to be precise, According to her observation of human beings, as long as they get old, human beings will become like this.

"Once you start talking nonsense, you can't stop, old men and old women are like this!" ← This is what the children of the ninja school used to complain about.

In other words, Mami loves preaching so much, maybe it's because she's getting old.

"Don't slow down your actions, don't just chat with boys when you have nothing to do. Chatting is of course fun, but I didn't hire you here for you to chat." Xing poked Mami's forehead lightly with her finger, and said: " If you dawdle any longer, be careful that I owe you less money."

Asami blinked, and removed the plastic bag from Itachi Uchiha.

The young man with black braids lowered his head a little, showing a look of embarrassment.He said: "I'm sorry, Yumi, I caused you to be punished by the elders."

"Huh?" Mami was taken aback for a moment, and said, "It's okay, it's okay", while carrying a few plastic bags, she followed A Xing's footsteps closely.A Xing said helplessly to Mami while walking: "Don't look at me so fiercely, it's actually for you, Kaori Oboro. I want you to develop a good habit of hard work and become a neat person who doesn't procrastinate in doing things." .”

——It seems very reasonable.

It is also said in "The Meaning of Life" that if a human being contributes his or her life to the world, then his/her sacrifice is glorious.Working hard in an izakaya...is it considered a contribution of life to the world?

However, the gods still don't know much about the human way of life.

She has learned to pretend to sleep, eat and drink, imitate ninja taijutsu, genjutsu and ninjutsu, tell bad jokes, turn on the TV, shop for curry online, and even wash and hang clothes, but the gods don't use the kitchen appliance. (Why a good god would do this is an unsolved mystery.)

Things like spatulas, ovens, and cutting boards are just too esoteric.

Xing tried to teach Mami some kitchen skills, but Mami really didn't have the talent in this area.The size of the fish fillets is not evenly cut, the chili powder and tomato powder cannot be distinguished, and the taste of several sauces is also dull.In A Xing's words, it is—"Okaori Kaori, you are a country girl who has never eaten, and you can't tell these smells!"

In the end, the poor god became the little girl responsible for wiping the floor, serving wine and paying the bill.

At night, Ah Xing's izakaya opened, and the red lights hanging from the eaves were shining brightly.At night, lights of various colors are lit on the streets, and they fall dimly on the ground one by one.The soft sound of pouring wine and the sound of footsteps coming and going mingled in my ears.

Yamanaka Kaiichi is a frequent visitor to this izakaya. According to Xing, he would bring Shikaku to drink with him from time to time, but Shikaku is notoriously afraid of his wife in Konoha Ninja Village, so he can't come to the tavern often.This time, when Lu Jiu saw Mami, he greeted Mami kindly, like an amiable elder.

"Miss Omiji, aren't you tired like this?"

Haiyi sat in front of the bar and ordered a glass of sake.Asami was squatting on the ground, wiping the wooden floor with a damp rag.She stepped on the ground with her bare feet, and wiped the white cloth back and forth with both hands.Hearing what Haiyi said, Mami raised her head and said, "Hey, to be honest, I think it's fun."

"Ah? It's fun?" Hai Yi was a little surprised.

"This child is so hardworking." A Xing brought sake from the wine cabinet and said, "Exercising more is good for physical development."

Asami was noncommittal.After wiping the floor, she wrung out the cloth towel in her hand, planning to pour the sewage in the wooden barrel out the door.When she walked to the door of the wine house with the wooden barrel filled with water, she happened to see a little man standing hesitantly under the eaves beside him. He looked very hesitant, but it was Itachi Uchiha.

He was wearing the black top he wore when he saw Mami during the day, white bandages were wrapped around his legs and forearms, a strong ninja bag was tied to his right leg at one time, the forehead protector was neatly worn on his forehead, and a few strands of black His long hair fell from his ears, brushing his high neckline.

Mami turned over the wooden barrel in her hand and poured the sewage into the ditch beside the road with a clatter. Then she shook the wooden barrel and asked, "What's the matter? We don't sell alcohol to minors here. Human. There are many harms of drinking alcohol. Momentary stimulation and paralysis can indulge oneself, but human beings can’t always be immersed in self-paralysis. It’s too shameful to drink so drunk that you forget your wallet or something in the hotel.”

Mami thinks - ah, maybe she is born with an aura that attracts Uchiha Itachi.

This kid used to like Mami-sensei very much, and now he seems to be interested in Mami, the little girl who wipes the floor.

"Well, I'm sorry that you were punished by your elders during the day." Uchiha Itachi took a step forward and said, "However, I want to take the liberty of asking a question."

"Hey, what kind of question is it?" Mami stood at the door of the izakaya holding an empty wooden barrel.

"Excuse me, is Mayumi...'s mother, Miss Futagawa Asami?" Uchiha Itachi asked.

puff--

What--?

Mami said dumbfounded, "What are you thinking? I don't have a mother."

"That's it." Uchiha Itachi was a little disappointed, and said, "I'm sorry to bother you. The appearance of Mami and Mami-sensei are very similar. If you calculate according to the age of the teacher... Although the age is not right, I... think You and Asami-sensei are relatives. Like mother, daughter, sister, etc..."

Mami became more and more dumbfounded.

The information revealed between the lines of this guy Uchiha Itachi is really incredible.God's will did not work on him. Not only did he not forget Asami Nikawa, but he also deeply remembered this teacher Asami. Now that he saw Mami, a girl who wiped the floor with a similar appearance, he boldly stepped forward to ask...

This is incredible.

Mami has never encountered such a situation - no matter what kind of world it is, she can be left to fiddle with it at will, and now there is a young child who jumped out of her control, which undoubtedly made Mami Very surprised.

"You're overthinking." Mami immediately said seriously, "I have nothing to do with Ms. Erchuan."

Originally, I wanted to add another sentence, "You and I are just strangers", but when the words came out, Mami became a little unhappy again.Uchiha Itachi is such a cute child, it is rare to arouse the interest of the gods, and he taught it by himself. It would be a pity if he was really classified as a stranger.

While the two were talking, Yamanaka Haiyi staggered out of the izakaya after finishing his drink.He was drunk, and it took him a long time to put on his ninja shoes, then he leaned against the door frame, and said to Asami who was holding the barrel in his hand, "Oh, Miss Omiji, you are really hardworking."

Mami, who was called, quickly turned around and smiled at Haiyi for a while.

Uncle Hai drank a lot, and even leaned on the door frame to look up at the moonlight, lamenting the beauty of the moonlight.Mami standing by the door couldn't bear to interrupt Haiyi's thoughts, so she could only watch silently.

Uchiha Itachi suddenly said: "It turns out that you... are not called Mahami."

"Huh?" Mami was a little confused.

"Is your real name Omiji? It sounds nice too." Itachi said.

Uncle Hai was suddenly called back to his senses. He patted Asami on the shoulder and said to Uchiha Itachi: "That's right! This child is the future successor of A Xing's pipa, Miss Omishi! But Ah Xing said it was a stage name, right? Omeizhi."

"Hmm..." Uchiha Itachi opened his black eyes wide, and said softly, "Then her real name is still Mahami..."

Because Mami went out to pour water and did not come back, A Xing's noisy voice exploded impatiently in the izakaya, and she shouted outside: "Kaori Oboro——Kaori Oboro—where have you been? "

Uncle Hai slapped Mami on the shoulder again: "Omiji, A Xing's pipa depends on you to pass on!"

Uchiha Itachi's doubts deepened: "Isn't it really called Mahami?"

A Xing was still shouting: "Okaori Kaori, where have you been to be lazy?!"

"Ogilvy!"

"Ma Yumi..."

"Hazy Kaori!"

The god's head was about to explode from being squeezed by these people.

She hugged the empty wooden barrel tightly in her arms, frowned and said to Uchiha Itachi: "Those are not my names, they are stage names given to me by Mrs. Axing. My name is Mami, Hirotsu Asami, Itachi-kun."

Uncle Hai was still holding the door frame to appreciate the moonlight, but Uchiha Itachi's complexion gradually softened.He first showed a very gentle smile, then calmed down the smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Sure enough, your name is Mami. But... I don't remember, I told you my name."

A bolt of lightning struck Mami's mind.

--Oops!forgotten!The great god took care of His Royal Highness Fenghong!Stumbled!

Mami quickly put a hand on the drunk Uncle Haiyi, and said, "Mr. Haiyi told me your name."

At this critical juncture, Uncle Hai, who was drunk and delirious, suddenly straightened his body, and said clearly, firmly and smoothly: "Omishi, I never told you Uchiha Itachi's name!"

— Isn't this guy drunk?Why are you still so clear-headed!

"You told me, uncle, you're drunk, you forgot!" Mami quickly patted Uncle Hai's arm.

"I never lie." Hai Yi's tone became firmer, emphasizing with some exaggeration: "I never told you..."

"Okay, that's what Mr. Lu Jiu told me, I remember wrong..."

"Not even Lujiu! Omiji!"

Mami hugged the barrel, staring at her toes.

Ah, the will of the gods has failed, and now I don't know how many troubles will be caused.

I hope... only Uchiha Itachi has not forgotten.

In other people's memories, there should only be a person named Futagawa Asami, who has been dead for many years.But where she lived, who she studied under, what relationship she had, and what she looked like were all blank.

"Don't worry, Mami." Itachi said: "...There will be many opportunities for you to explain this problem in the future."
