"Have you heard that the Uchiha clan has rebelled?"

"Huh? What's the matter?"

"Just a few days ago."

"It's scary."

"It doesn't matter, Hokage-sama has already wiped out the traitors."

"Great!"

……

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"what?"

"Only Sasuke and his brother are left in the Uchiha clan."

"How pitiful."

"What's so pitiful, they are traitors!"

As soon as he entered the classroom, Naruto heard whispers among his classmates.The content of the discussion made him stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Sasuke.

The boy was still the same as before, with no expression on his fair side face.He crossed his hands under his lips, still in that tugging look.Different from the past, the group of nympho girls didn't look at him red-eyed, the students whispered and looked at him with a hint of fear.

Perhaps because he was a little impatient with those people's words and secretive eyes, the little boy suddenly stood up from his seat, making the students jump.

He saw Sasuke walking towards him.There was no self in the young man's eyes, and he seemed to see something in the dark pupils, which made his heart shrink suddenly.

Just standing there stupidly, watching the young man walk past him.

Uchiha's home was already uninhabitable due to the destruction of the war, so Lord III sent them another location.

The unfamiliar environment made him pause, but he still walked in.

He took off his shoes and said out of habit, "I'm back."

The house is not big, but it is empty.The boy's voice circled around the house before slowly dissipating without any response.

When Sasuke was about to go upstairs, he saw his brother sitting at the table in the living room in a daze, with a shuriken in front of him.Holding a white cloth in his hand, he looked like he was maintaining the cutting tool, and his empty eyes seemed to be in a daze.

His brother's face reminded him subconsciously of the scene that night, and the terrifying memory made him take a few steps back as if he wanted to dodge.

The collision between the body and the wall made a muffled 'bang', which directly awakened the brother who was in a daze.

"Sasuke, you're back." When he came back to his senses, Itachi saw Sasuke standing at the top of the stairs, perhaps because of the pain, his face wrinkled into a ball, looking a little cute.

It turned out that the phrase 'I'm back' just now was not an illusion.Itachi thought about it endlessly, he looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and the time displayed on it made him feel something was wrong.

"Sasuke, isn't it time for school to end?"

Squeezing his hands, Sasuke turned his face away, "Those people are too noisy."

A trace of bitterness suddenly surged in his heart, and the expression on Itachi's face was still very gentle: "Does Sasuke care about what they say?"

"No!" He yelled this sentence directly, and after he finished speaking, he felt that this was more like covering up something, and finally he just said rather awkwardly, "It's just that they are too noisy."

"Even so, Sasuke can't skip school."

"I know!" Sasuke kicked his feet and muttered, as if thinking of something, "Speaking of which, why did my brother stay at...home?"

When he said the term home, he subconsciously paused, obviously Itachi also noticed this.But he pretended not to notice, and answered Sasuke's question, "Master Sandaime asked me to rest for a few days."

"Oh."

After there was no topic, there was silence, and the two brothers stayed in place as if they had been petrified.

After a while, Sasuke seemed to have regained his senses, and hurried upstairs as if escaping, only saying, "I'm going up."

The door was closed directly with a 'snap', Sasuke was panting slightly despite not having exercised much.

Head down, hands clenched into fists.The hair on the temples slipped down the side of his face, covering his face, making it impossible to see his expression.

Obviously, this is not the case.

It seemed that there was wind pouring into the room from the window, and into his heart, making him shiver uncontrollably from the cold.

Squatting down along the door panel, he circled his body, as if he could guard his own world.

Is this loneliness?

Really, so cold.

The appearance of his brother suddenly appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.Immediately afterwards, blood seemed to cover his elder brother's face, with large swaths of red, and his usual gentle appearance seemed to turn ferocious in an instant.

He just felt a little out of breath.

Why did it become like this?Obviously it is the existence I like the most, but now it has become a pain.

Obviously my favorite brother.

Wrap yourself tightly, let yourself curl up into a ball, as if this can make yourself less cold, as if this can make yourself less painful.

With his index finger slightly bent, he was about to knock on the door, but his knuckles stopped suddenly when they were only one centimeter away from the door.

Sasuke's eyes full of resistance came to mind. At that time, he saw Sasuke looking like he was about to collapse.

Obviously, he shouldn't have seen all this.

——"Itachi, I'm sorry for letting Sasuke see that scene."

——"It's not your reason, Lord III. I suspect that someone deliberately let Sasuke see that scene."

--"How to say?"

——"Obviously Sasuke was guarded by An Ninja, who also put a barrier on there, and specially cast illusions on Sasuke to let him have a good rest, but Sasuke still found out. Although the war was about to end at that time, but only by With Sasuke's ability, it's really strange to be able to come to the scene unscathed."

——"That's it, then the possibility of man-made is very high. Then, what is the purpose of that person?"

——"Sorry, Lord III, I don't know."

——"Yes, then Itachi, you should rest for a few days."

——"...I see, Lord III."

The fingers tightened directly, and Itachi's eyes became sharper.

Sasuke, brother will protect you.

Blinking his eyes blankly, he felt someone coming, and left quietly.

Is it... brother?

The night fell quietly, and he still returned home alone.

Turning on the light with a 'snap', the room was in a mess, and he didn't bother to clean it up.

When I left today, the windows were not closed, the night wind poured into the room, and the puppet on the bed swayed with the wind.

He habitually stretched out his fist at the puppet, but stopped a little away from the puppet.The puppet is ugly, but you can vaguely tell who the owner is.I don't know why he couldn't do anything today.

Throwing his body directly onto the bed, the eyes of the boy who closed his eyes appeared in his mind.

Turning his body sideways, he couldn't help curling up.

He suddenly remembered where he had seen this kind of look, that look was like seeing his own eyes in the mirror every day.

Really, exactly the same.

Like a fish out of water, Naruto tossed his body, and even the bed sheet was wrinkled.

Rubbing his hair desperately, the boy showed a bright smile as usual, but that smile was inexplicably sad.

"What are you thinking about! Don't you have an older brother!"
