Please answer Hokage

Chapter 318 I just passed by
Makoto bowed politely, exited the room, closed the door, and when she turned her head, she saw a man and a woman coming up to her.

Startled, she knew the girl, the long pink hair was like her name, she was one of her senior sisters under Tsunade-sama, Haruno Sakura; and the boy next to him had yellow hair, and his expression was suppressed eagerly, as if he had something to say. The way he said it.

This initial impression of scratching my head... seems very frivolous.

"You, senior sister..." Mai said suspiciously, and cast her eyes on Sakura.

Naruto, who didn't have too many detours, took the first step, and said straight to the point: "You are the one with Teacher Yubai, right? I have something to say!"

Ah, huh?
Maiko's expression was dazed and a little bit of sudden shock, what, what do you mean by being together, she frowned slightly, realizing that things were not that simple, she subtly restrained her expression and felt guilty.

"Naruto, can you not be so smart when you talk?" Meeting without warning, but now without even saying hello, Sakura held her forehead with a headache, and then punched Naruto's back unceremoniously.

"Sorry, Mae, that's how he is."

In the end, Sakura was talking to Mai. The two were already familiar with each other. ...is it okay?
Naruto rubbed his back, his face was normal, he knew that he was impatient when he heard what Sakura said, adjusted his state, and said to Mai seriously: "Hello, my name is Uzumaki Naruto."

Some familiar names provoke fragments of information in my mind, they are Brother Yubai's former students...Mai probably understood what was going on.

From meeting Yu Xiaobai to returning home, she had already made a lot of mental preparations.

"I heard that your team met Tomoyubai in the wild north of Kyoto, and I want to know about him." Naruto said seriously, "Please."

At the end of the corridor, the soft night is covering the corner of the sky by the window, and the street lamps are quietly turned on.

It wasn't a big deal, Mae turned his head and glanced at the place where he just came out, the door was grand - he had just come out of Hokage's office to ask questions.

Sakura just tapped on Naruto's shoulder and smiled awkwardly. "That's it, Mae, hehe..."

The two seemed to have been waiting for a long time, Mai nodded and said, "Okay."

……

Mae's return to the village is great news for those who have been paying attention to the situation.

Needless to say, the original team members were sent back to the village after the "attack". He returned safely, and he should be back soon.

In addition, those who put more positions at the high level are relieved that the outstanding young ninjas in the village are safe and sound, which means that there is no need to show immediate and resolute hostility in certain aspects.

This saves a lot of hassle.

And what happened later, when Naruto and Sakura approached Mai to inquire, it can be considered a spontaneous extra action.

The conversation took place in a restaurant.

This is a new and quite popular restaurant in Konoha, with elegant decoration and soft lighting. It sells a lot of novelty and exquisite food and drinks different from the previous vulgar restaurants. At the forefront of the restaurant industry in Ninja World.

"That's pretty much the way it is."

Mai looked down at the glass of bright juice in front of her, and finished her speech.

The night light and lights at the door blend together in a slight noise. There are many guests at night, they sit in the sofa booths, and the music played slowly flows in the air.

Mai "disappeared" for about a day, not too long or short, and under the circumstances at that time, from the perspective of an outsider, it was natural that he had contact with the S-class rebels, and it was also a fact, otherwise there is no way to explain it, Mai I know I can't get around this.

The experience at dusk that day, the bumps on the back, the discussion on the second day, all the details, the warm emotions connecting the past and the present time, all have to be hidden. They only belong to me and Brother Yubai, a secret that cannot be revealed. .

The girl with a lively mind knows not to cause trouble for each other. After returning to the village, she accepts the official questioning. She uses "the other party seems to care about her special sensory ability, because she has detected the hidden other party before, and then asked herself No malice."

It sounds strange, but it is also impossible to force doubts.

In the minds of the three generations and other people, Chaoming Yubai is very good at killing, but not a bloodthirsty person.The attitude towards Konoha all the time is also the reason why they are willing to "don't bother teachers and mobilize people, but only send people to pay attention".

As for the reasons why Chaoming Yubai left Konoha, many people may never know.

Facing Naruto and Sakura, Mai recounted what he said in Hokage's office.

After Naruto finished listening, he scratched his hair and thought for a while.

"You just talked about perception, and then Teacher Yubai left?"

Makoto took a sip of his drink, nodded and said, "Well, I confirmed the direction afterwards, and when I returned to the original place, I found no team members, so I waited until the next day and decided to go back to the village first."

"Do you know which way Teacher Yu Bai is going?" Naruto continued.

I don't know, I won't tell you.Mai really wanted to say that, but because of what he learned in Yukino Town, Anbu couldn't hide it when he got there, so he said in an uncertain tone: "Maybe... I heard that he went to the north."

Naruto quickly fell into his own reasoning world, "Where is the north, beyond the border..."

Sakura helplessly glanced at Naruto at the side, smiled and pushed the dessert on the table forward, facing the cute junior, she couldn't make the atmosphere too stiff, "Hey, Mai, the mango The cakes are delicious."

"Yeah, okay, Miss Sakura." Mai Acting Online.

At this point, she understood that she couldn't get any key information. Sakura sighed inwardly, feeling a little regretful, but these had nothing to do with Mai. She contacted her, and the two girls chatted about their own light-hearted topics.

Naruto had a glass of boiled water in front of him, and he had already drank it all. It was not suitable for him to appear on such an occasion with his rough nerve head. He raised his head and asked Mai unwillingly.

"That...he really didn't say anything else?"

Teacher Yubai was still as strong as ever. After so long, he finally got news but could not get any useful information. Naruto clenched his fists in confusion.

"Oh, it seems there is." Mai seemed to suddenly remember something, Naruto's eyes lit up, "He asked me how Naruto Uzumaki was doing."

"Huh?" Naruto's mood was mixed for a while.

"Then what did you say?" Naruto unconsciously became cautious.

Holding the glass, Mai said nonchalantly, "Oh, that, I said I'm not familiar with it."

"..."

"Then what about me?" Sakura became interested and pointed at herself, completely ignoring the depression of the yellow-haired boy.

"Oh, Miss Sakura, of course you and I have talked a lot." Mai suddenly seemed to be a different person, smiling enthusiastically, "I just said...then the other party..."

The conversation ended smoothly in the chat between the two girls, only Naruto was a little sad.

The guests come and go, the glasses are empty, and the lights seem to dim with the night.

When it was time not to continue disturbing, everyone came outside, Sakura waved goodbye to Mai, "The flower shop on Guyu Street... have time to play together!"

"Alright Miss Sakura."

Afterwards, Sakura wiped off her sweat, turned around and drove away Naruto with a straight face, and told him to go home and sleep honestly.

The village has gradually quieted down, and there are few pedestrians. She walks along the glass outside the restaurant, and the street lights are colorful and dim.

When turning the corner, Sakura accidentally saw a figure, wearing a mask that has not changed for thousands of years, leaning against a street lamp, the shadow cut out a small circle.

"Kakashi-sensei?"

The other party also saw Sakura, and smiled undulatingly on the face stuck under the mask, her silver-white hair shook slightly, and her forehead pointed to the restaurant over there, "I heard that you have gone to see Hase Mai."

Sakura was stunned, then stuck out her tongue, "Teacher, do you know this?"

"The people you stopped at the Hokage Building, you want to hide it from someone." Kakashi said in a flat voice, but at the same time he was a little speechless.

"Haha...that's it."

With a light cough, Kakashi stood up straight from the position of leaning on the streetlight, "Is there anything wrong anyway? Especially Naruto."

He mainly came to worry about someone who was full of enthusiasm after returning from practice, and Tsunade also told him to pay attention by the way.

Sakura shook her head, "It's nothing, Naruto has already gone home."

Kakashi nodded, indicating that he understood, and didn't say much, looked around jerkyly, and found that there was nothing to talk about.

Then he turned around and raised his hand coolly, "Since I'm fine, I'll go back."

"Hey wait." Sakura looked Kakashi up and down strangely, "Kakashi-sensei, you came here on purpose, except Naruto, didn't you ask what Mai said about Yubai-sensei?"

It's late at night, and I ran into you here as soon as I went out. It doesn't look like a coincidence, does it?

As teachers and friends who used to get along day and night and are still familiar with each other, the people in Class [-] can guess their thoughts.

Kakashi turned sideways, his half-opened right eye under the street lamp looked like a salted fish, his demeanor still seemed lazy, and he didn't show the slightest wave, "I don't have it, I have anything to ask, I'll just pass by."

Sakura tilted her head strangely.

——As for that matter, I asked Anbu to ask clearly.
