Early next morning.

Ninja's Routine Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Ooji woke up very early.

After the two looked at each other, they stood up silently, then left the room without disturbing the family, and cleaned themselves up a little. Immediately afterwards, they returned to the room, using last night's stove and last night's women to wash

A pot of hot porridge was cooked in the clean pot.

So the Narita family woke up with the fragrant smell of rice. The moment they woke up, except for little Yumiko who was not very sensible yet, the corners of their eyes were moist for some unknown reason.

For a moment, they felt that they were back to the past, they felt that everything in the past was a nightmare, and they felt that life had never become cruel...

However, these are just dreams, and nightmares are reality.

"Uncle Hashirama!" Xiao Yumiko put on her thick coat and jumped straight into Senju Hashirama's arms - in fact, in such an environment, this family has not washed their hair or bathed for a long time, although as much as possible

I wiped my face clean with snow water, but in such a cold weather, using ice water to wash my hair and wipe my body is just a suicide. Therefore, from the elderly to the children, the whole body exudes an unpleasant smell.

Senju Hashirama is a person with an extremely sensitive sense of smell, but he hugged the little girl without changing his expression from yesterday to today. He hugged the little girl with a smile and weighed her: "Good morning, little Yumiko~" Then,

Putting her on the ground, he picked up the toothbrush, toothpaste and cute little cup prepared for her, "Go brush your teeth and wash your face, and then get ready for breakfast." They walked around the family's house for a while in the morning.

If I don't see any similar items, I think I'm out of ammunition.

Uchiha also smiled and handed similar things to other adults. The latter took the things with some embarrassment, and then couldn't wait to wash up. Although you can brush your teeth with fingers and snow water, is there any toothpaste?

, it feels so different. Human beings who have just entered this "nightmare world" are still not so easy to abandon their past living habits so quickly.

So on this early morning, the Narita family brushed their teeth and washed their faces for the first time in a long time, and then drank a meal of hot porridge. Such comfort made people both flattered and reluctant to leave, so much so that...

When the two guests said goodbye politely, they felt a strong sense of reluctance.

"...Uncle Hashirama, are you leaving?" Xiao Yumiko blinked and reluctantly pulled the hem of Senju Hashirama's kimono with her little hands.

Senju Hashirama's affinity is really strong. Although they only got along with each other for a short time, this child... or not only this child, the whole family has developed a strong feeling of trust and even dependence on him.

.

"Yes." Senju Hashirama rubbed the little girl's hair, which was inevitably a little oily because she hadn't washed it for a long time, and said in a soft tone, "I bothered you from yesterday to today. See you next time, Yumiko."

"Well, see you next time." The little girl nodded obediently.

And the moment the two of them turned around...

Narita Kaede suddenly shouted: "Please, please, can you take Yumiko with you?"

As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent.

Immediately afterwards...

It was Mamoru Narita scolding: "Kaede, what are you talking about! This is causing trouble to Mr. Hashirama and Miss Ochi, please apologize!"

"But..." Narita Kaede's lips trembled, he lowered his head and whispered, "It doesn't matter what happens to us adults in the future. Can we... at least take Yumiko with us..."

She knew the situation at home very well and could not last much longer. Although these two kind-hearted guests gave them some food, snacks, daily necessities and charcoal, if things continued like this, sooner or later they would run out. By then, they would

Why do you make a living? Do you really want to plunder other people with weapons? Or do you want to kill those people and then...

No, she didn't want her daughter to live that kind of life.

As an adult, she had long been prepared to commit suicide at the end of her rope, and others must have been the same, but...

Her daughter Yumiko is still so young, is she really going to die with them like this?

Therefore, even though she knew that her request was very shameless, as shameless as a parasite, she still couldn't help saying it. It didn't matter whether she was laughed at, scorned, or even scolded and beaten. She just wanted to

Fight for a chance to live for my daughter...

However, there is no doubt that this kind of thing should not be laughed at or despised, because it is the most basic desire to survive - not for herself, but for her children.

There was silence.

Yumiko shouted: "I don't want to leave my parents, my grandparents!" As she said this, she threw herself into her grandma's arms.

While stroking her granddaughter's hair, the latter showed a helpless and bitter smile - it's not up to them to decide whether to take it or not.

Senju Hashirama subconsciously opened his mouth, but for some unknown reason, he closed it at the critical moment, then stretched out his hand and gently pulled down the sleeve of the person next to him.

Uchiha blinked, then, in turn, pulled his sleeves, led him to other rooms, and closed the door.

The moment he closed the door, Senju Hashirama immediately said: "Hoshi-chan, I want to agree." He paused and added, "Not just the child, but also their family. Let's take him with us." Facts

First, he originally wanted Hoshi-chan to quietly leave some supplies and come back to see if he had a chance in the future. But it would not be a bad idea or even better to just take people away, because he is powerful enough to protect many people.

of confidence.

"I know." Uchiha Oichi said without any surprise, "But, Brother Hashirama, why didn't you agree directly just now?"

"Because I want to hear what you think, Hoshi-chan." Senju Hashirama said this while staring at the girl in front of him unblinkingly - he is actually a very arbitrary person. This is evident from his younger brother Tobi.

It can also be seen from the countless times of anger. So, how much do you cherish and respect someone before you forcefully suppress your instinct and instead want to seek another person’s ideas and support first?

"..." Uchiha looked at the person in front of him sincerely, and said sincerely, "Brother Hashirama, I support your idea." Because Senju Hashirama is such a man, he will never be able to do the same.

Will not ignore others' requests for help.

If you ask him why he wants to help someone or some people, then no matter how many times you ask him, the answer may be the same -

Because they asked me for help.

Of course, being kind and helpful does not mean that there is no bottom line. It is precisely because this family has always adhered to the most basic bottom line of human beings and is considered the only group of "innocent victims" in this community, so Senju Hashirama does not mind helping them

A handful. And people who have broken through the bottom line...sometimes, maybe they can no longer be called "people".

After hearing this, Senju Hashirama's face suddenly bloomed with an innocent and bright smile like a child. He naturally grabbed the hands of the girl in front of him and said happily: "I knew you wouldn't

Stop me, Hoshi-chan, you're so kind~" Even if he is dragging him down, she will be willing to drag him along, because she is so good and has the same interests as him.

"Hey, hey," Uchiha took his hand back naturally, "Don't send me good guy cards so early in the morning. Go tell them about this now."

"Hmm~"

When the Narita family heard about this, they were all very happy - although the future with these two people left was unknown, but they would definitely die if they stayed. Compared to the unknown future, they chose to be only three or four years old.

The older Yumiko worked hard to create a way out.

"Then... let's pack it up..." Narita Koichi said.

But in fact, apart from the bedding, there is nothing to pack. The thickest clothes are already worn on the body, and the only remaining food and the things Uchiha gave them before can be packed in a few bags. The daily necessities are either scrap or waste.

has become fuel.

"Miss Otoko, these..." Mamoru Narita pointed to the box containing charcoal in the corner and asked hesitantly, "Do you want to put it away?"

The Uchiha hesitated for a moment and then shook his head: "Forget it, just stay here." Someone will definitely come in to "explore" from here. Although those people...but, forget it, just stay here for the charcoal.

, she doesn’t lack these things either.

"Okay." Narita Mamoru nodded and said nothing more.

Even so, when it was time to leave, the family was full of reluctance to leave the house they had lived in for a long time. Because it is completely conceivable that after they left, a group of people would run in and "raid" the house.

At that time...

Maybe, everything will come to nothing?

"Let's go." After Narita Koichi took a deep breath, he opened the door of the house with the hunting log and let himself be exposed to the cold air outside. Then, he walked out at the lead and stepped on

Entering the snow outside the door.

Senju Hashirama, who was holding little Yumiko in his arms, walked in second place, and the others followed him. Uchiha Oiko chose to walk last.

Then, a group of people left the community while other people in the community looked at them in surprise and with malicious intent.

Not long after, someone left his room and ran towards the place where the family originally lived. Soon, more people appeared. In the process, of course there were various conflicts and even some people bled to death, but all of this,

They have nothing to do with the Narita family who chose to leave.

The physical fitness of ordinary people is no better than that of ninjas, not to mention that Senju Hashirama and Uchiha are still the best in the latter. The former have not been out for a long time. So after a while, most of the people in the Narita family became

There were some signs of being out of breath, but everyone, including Xiao Yumiko (the child had just left the community and asked her to leave by herself sensibly), was trying hard to persevere, and no one said anything about taking a rest or even giving up halfway.

After Senju Hashirama saw this, he raised his hand and scratched his head, and subconsciously looked at the girl beside him. The latter tilted her head and thought for a moment, then gestured to him. His eyes suddenly lit up and he said

"Wait for me!" Then he turned around and ran away.

Narita family: "???"

Little Yumiko raised her hand and tugged at the hem of Uchiha's belt: "Obi-sister, what are uncle Hashirama going to do?"

That's right, Uncle Hashirama, and Sister Obito - it can only be said that the world through the eyes of children is indeed very...real.

Senju Hashirama was a little depressed about this, but what could he do? When candy and chocolate couldn't change the child's name, he was not an adult who would be cruel to the child just because of this.

After a while.

Senju Hashirama came back with "smoke and dust billowing".

Everyone was extremely surprised to find that behind him was a simple but sturdy two-wheeled wooden cart. There were several vines tied to the front of the wooden cart, and it was being pulled by him.

…Where does this transportation come from?

The Narita family feels more and more that these two people are a bit mysterious, but - we don't dare to say, and we don't dare to ask.

"Get in the car." Senju Hashirama said with a smile, "You guys get in, and we'll pull you along."

After the Narita family looked at each other...

Mamoru Narita took the initiative and said: "Mom, Dad, and Yumiko, please go up. Kaede and I are young people and have the strength to pull the cart away." To be honest, it felt uncomfortable to be completely dragged down, so they also wanted to do what they could.

things.

"Okay." Senju Hashirama had no objection, or in other words, he was willing to protect the self-esteem of ordinary people, "Then let's do it this way."

So Narita Mamoru and his wife helped their parents get into the car, and then they hugged their daughter up and put the luggage they had been carrying on top. In this way, the two of them pulled up the vine together, and it was a little difficult to stand side by side.

The cart is walking. But don't mention it, once you start walking, it seems to gradually become less laborious, which means it takes a lot of effort to "start" at the beginning.

Uchiha Ochi looked at the confident and relaxed smiling faces of the couple and winked at Senju Hashirama: Keep it secret~
Chapter completed!
