Sensei Kakashi frowned and turned away.

I didn't chase after him.

I had already made sure that there was no place for me in his memory.

In other words, he hopes that I don't exist in this world.

So he saw me but seemed not to know me.

If I hadn't told him that I was "Asaroya", perhaps I would have become a transparent existence in his memory world, no one could see me, no one could hear me, just like what happened just now - Obito and the other students were completely unaware of my existence.

After all, the master of the memory world is like a god in the memory world.

It’s just that Teacher Kakashi doesn’t quite understand his own power, so he can only use his power subconsciously.

But the kind of orders that one does not even realize what they are doing are the most dangerous.

What should we do next?

If you tell someone who is deeply trapped in memories of the past that this is the world of consciousness, not the real world, he will not believe it.

Fortunately, generally speaking, the flow rate of time in the memory world is different from that in the real world, otherwise I really wouldn’t be able to take it slow.

I have to make him look me in the face.

Only when he truly sees me can he realize that if I am "real", this world is "fake".

But for now, let's just act as if this world is the real world...

I returned to the classroom, and when the class started, Teacher Kakashi had not come back yet. However, the teacher did not say anything when calling the roll. Even the children knew about this special situation, so the adults would only understand it better.

It wasn't until school was over that I realized an extremely real dilemma - I was in Konoha and had no place to live.

If there is no place for me in Kakashi's memory world, there will obviously be no space for me to live in the welfare home, let alone the Uchiha residence.

Naruto and Shikamaru are not born yet, so is Rin's house empty?

But... I don't even know where Lin lives.

"Zhaolu, aren't you leaving yet?"

Unexpectedly, someone actually took the initiative to talk to me.

I turned around and was flattered to see it was Obito.

"Ah...I, are you going home?"

"Are you worried about Kakashi?"

"Eh?"

"Didn't you run after him just now?"

"You saw... me?"

"Why do you say that?" Obito tilted his head in confusion: "Weren't you sitting next to me just now?"

Although Kakashi-sensei refused to recognize me in his memory world, he seemed to think that Obito must know me.

Or maybe, because Rin and I look the same, he thinks Obito will definitely not remain indifferent?

An idea suddenly flashed in my mind: "Obito!"

"what?"

"Can I stay at your house tonight?"

“Hmm?” He seemed to be unresponsive for a moment, “…Hmmmm???”

"Ah."

"Why don't you go home?"

"Do you know where my home is?"

Obito was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

I said truthfully, “I don’t know either.”

"What? Who doesn't know where their home is?" He laughed but didn't argue with me: "Okay, come with me."

I followed him and headed towards the Uchiha's base.

I looked at his profile and thought, this is the Obito in Kakashi's memory... Does this mean that the real Obito is like this...?

"…Are you looking at me?"

"Ah."

Obito was a little confused: "Is there something on my face?"

I shook my head. “It’s just that I’ve never really looked at you before.”

Obito also turned his head and looked at me. His eyes were like black jade, sparkling with a warm light.

He smiled brightly at me: "Why do you say such things? It's embarrassing."

When he smiled, I couldn't help but soften my tone: "What do you think of Kakashi?"

"What else can I say? He's just an arrogant genius who looks down on others."

"So, what do you think of Lin?"

"Rin?" Obito hesitated, "Who is that?"

I was silent for a moment, "Nothing. Does Obito live alone?"

"Yes."

"Have you ever thought about who you will team up with after graduation?"

"Isn't that what the teacher arranged?"

"But everyone has friends they want to be with, right? Where's Obito?"

"I also can."

"How about I team up with Obito?"

"But... there's no need for Chaolu to become a ninja, right?"

I was slightly stunned, and suddenly I felt that this sentence was very familiar: "Why?"

"Being a ninja is very dangerous. You have to fight many dangerous people... You might die at any time." Obito lowered his eyes. "As long as Chaolu stays in the village, I think she will live to be a hundred years old."

I don't know if Obito would say such words or have such an expression, but in my memory, those are the words and expressions of Kakashi-sensei.

In this world, all existing characters are constructed from the memories of Kakashi Sensei. In this sense, everyone can be considered an incarnation of Kakashi Sensei himself.

His consciousness can travel through different bodies, stay anywhere he wants, and play whoever he wants.

——Just now, I didn’t take the initiative to talk to Obito and he responded to me passively. He was the one who took the initiative to talk to me.

If this Obito is more than just a shadow of the past, when he moves on his own and can make decisions, he often represents a part of Kakashi's inner world.

What Kakashi can't face, let Obito face it.

What Kakashi couldn't bear, Obito had to bear.

If Kakashi couldn't say anything, he let Obito say it.

If Kakashi can't do something, let Obito do it.

...Could it be that Teacher Kakashi also realized that I had nowhere to go, so he transformed himself into Obito and came to my side to give me a place to stay?

If this is the case, there is no need to get close to Kakashi. Even if he stays by Obito's side, he can awaken Kakashi's will, because they essentially share the same will and are the same existence.

I tried, "Then... can Obito stay in the village with me?"

"Me? I can't do it."

"why?"

"Because someone has to be a ninja!" Obito scratched his face and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Otherwise, there will be no one to protect us!"

"But Obito will also encounter danger."

"...That's true. But, Chaolu, you're different."

"What's the difference?"

"What's the difference..." Obito showed a confused look, "Because Chaolu, you are still alive."

I whispered, "But you are still alive."

Kakashi-sensei...

"But it's better for you to be alive."

"why?"

Obito looked ahead, his still young face showing a calmness and depression that was not in line with his age: "Because, if I keep living, I will see important people leave one by one... I don't want that. The feeling of being abandoned is terrible... If Chaolu can stay until the end and watch me leave, I will feel very happy."
