However, even if you are confused, you still can’t get any answers.

After all, she lost all her past memories.

He had an intuition that she should not have it, but this intuition was based on "understanding of the current Hoshi-chan". He was not sure whether this was accurate. After all, sometimes, a person who has lost his memory cannot be said to be a complete person...

…

Of course, he is not saying that this Hoshi-chan is false, or rather, she has lost her memory and is like a blank sheet of paper, and has completely revealed her truth. She is indeed a very, very cute little girl. But ah

, Memory is also a very important part of life. If he didn't remember Madara, Tobirama, and everyone...he wouldn't be the Senju Hashirama he is now, right? For this reason, he has always spoken from his heart

In my heart, I feel pity for the "little tree that has forgotten its roots", and I also try very hard to fulfill the responsibilities of the "old tree", taking good care of her and cultivating her, until...

Therefore, Senju Hashirama could only hide this doubt in his heart, then stood up and took the clothes she handed him with a smile, and walked towards the bathroom with a normal expression. Before leaving, he said: "Hoshi-chan, I'll take a bath

I plan to go to bed when I get back from the shower, so you should go back early."

The girl smiled and nodded: "Okay, Lord Hashirama."

When Senju Hashirama walked to the steaming bath, he felt that the chakra fluctuations of the girl and Kyuubi had completely disappeared.

...have you gone back...?

He lowered his eyes and stood there for a while, then came back to his senses, raised his hand to grab his hair, and picked up a hairpin to pull his long hair into a ball. But even if he

This way, there is no trace of femininity in him. After all, he is a masculine man in every sense of the word.

While Senju Hashirama was taking off his home kimono, he suddenly recalled the past. He and his friend Madara also took a bath together.

Madara...although he has an exceptionally good-looking face, he is a bit "rough" in every sense of the word. For example, when taking a shower, he would find a hairpin to pull up his hair when he didn't want to get it wet, but Madara was too lazy to do it.

These people always put their long hair down directly into the water, saying, "You can just wash it down with water afterwards. Anyway, you can just leave it alone and do it yourself." The Uchiha clan is good at fire escape, and Madara is the best among them. He is born with a body temperature bias.

High, the hair does dry quickly.

Once, he proposed to help Madara pull up his hair, but the latter refused, but in the end he could not resist his "plea", so he reluctantly nodded and agreed. Then he ran behind Madara happily and was warned.

"Hurry, don't stay behind my back for too long, it makes you feel uncomfortable." Then he stretched out his hands to help pull up his hair, but Madara's hair was really too much...

So much so that after they hooked up, his first reaction was to laugh out loud and complain: "She looks like an old woman selling meatballs on the street..."

Then, um, I was beaten, and even had Madara push my face into the bathtub to drink water, which was a bit tragic in every sense of the word.

Senju Hashirama couldn't help laughing out loud as he thought about it, then sat on the small wooden stool in the bathroom, scooped up hot water with a wooden spoon, and poured it over his shoulders.

After wetting his whole body, he soaped up his body, then took a bath. Finally, he raised the small wooden bucket and rinsed his whole body with the remaining hot water in it.

After doing all this, Senju Hashirama went to the bathtub and soaked for a while, relaxing his body and mind a little. When he felt that he was almost done, he got up, dried his body and put on clean pajamas, ready to go back to sleep.

Although he likes to rub and bathe with others, he is really used to doing this alone. After all, in a sense, he has lived alone for many years.

So, why bother to force one person's life to become two people in the last few years of his life?

There is no doubt that tonight, he thought of the previous proposal from the village and Tobirama.

After this trip, the Uzumaki clan should take the initiative to give up on the marriage after discovering that Konoha has a better way to control the Jinchuuriki. However, the importance of Hoshi-chan has been further highlighted. For many people,

In order to better "bind" her...

Senju Hashirama was deep in thought all the way back to his room. Then, he suddenly felt that something was not right. He subconsciously raised his head and saw a girl kneeling on the ground under the night light not far away. A girl with a smile on her face straightened up.

He made a "tiger pounces and bites" gesture toward himself, and let out a cry of "Ooooo--", but because it was so cute, it didn't look like a "tiger pounces on people", but rather like a "tiger pounces on people".

Cute cats attack”.

"...Hoshi-chan, didn't you go back?"

"No~" The girl who felt that her "prank" was successful replied with a smile, "If I didn't see Hashirama-sama, you have a good rest, how could I go back with peace of mind, and I won't be able to properly explain to Tobirama-sama when I go back~ How about it?

Jiu Lama and I are good at breath-holding techniques? Are you scared?"

Senju Hashirama: "..." It's not so much "fright" as it is "surprise", right?

Moreover, he had to admit——

"Excellent breath-containing technique, I didn't realize it at all when I took a shower just now."

It seems that Tobirama is also very good at teaching this matter, and she does work very hard.

Well, Kyuubi is pretty hardworking.

"What about the tiger's cry?"

"...Ahem, it's also very realistic." Senju Hashirama thought a little guiltily, the cat is just a little tiger, so what he said is not a lie, right? In order to prevent her from asking further questions, he walked over and said, "I would have known you guys

Before I left, I came out earlier. It’s getting so late, so you should go back earlier.”

"It's okay." The girl waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I'm going back with the Flying Thunder God, and I'll be there in a snap. It's super convenient~"

Senju Hashirama: "..." Well, he has never felt this kind of happiness after being shown off.

Then, the girl pulled him to the bed and laid him down on the bed.

Senju Hashirama grasped the edge of the quilt with both hands, and watched her without blinking as she lowered her head to tidy up the corner of the quilt for herself, and suddenly said: "Hoshi-chan didn't eat red bean cake today?"

"...Huh?" She was stunned for a moment and then asked, "How does Lord Hashirama know?"

"Usually when you do this in regular clothes, the sleeves often have the smell of red bean cake." Senju Hashirama grabbed the girl's sleeve, pulled it to her nose and sniffed again, "Today it doesn't smell at all."

"Yes, I didn't eat anything today." The girl sighed with some disappointment, "I forgot to pack some when I went out. What a big mistake." It's okay not to mention it, but the gluttons came up when I mentioned it. But, this

Even if you want to buy it now, Ganligan has already closed, right?

"It's okay." Senju Hashirama smiled and raised a hand to touch her young, cute and warm face, "Hoshi-chan, you now have a chance to make a wish~"

"Ah?" The girl tilted her head, looking confused.

"Before you came back, I was just thinking - if someone can give me a bowl of matsutake soup tonight, then I am willing to fulfill this person's wish." Senju Hashirama said seriously, "So, Hoshi-chan, please give me a bowl of matsutake soup."

Let me make a wish. For example, next time you come to see me, I can get enough red bean cakes to bury you whole." Oh my, if the boss of Gan Ligan got such a big order, I don't know if he would be so excited that he would cry or be frightened.

It makes me cry, but no matter what, as long as Xingjiang makes a wish to him, then he will definitely help her realize her wish.

"Is it okay to have any wish?"

"Of course, you can do whatever you wish."

"Then..." The girl raised her finger to her lower lip. After thinking for a moment, she stretched out her hand to hold the big hand on her face, lowered her head and showed a gentle and bright smile, "Just make a wish, Hashirama-sama.

May I have a good sleep and have a good dream tonight."

Although she had never been with Senju Hashirama all night, she was always there during his lunch break. Therefore, the girl also knew very well that the man in front of her had always had a bad sleep—

If he can suppress physical pain with his willpower and endurance when he is awake, then it is obviously difficult to do this while sleeping. Moreover, he has been having nightmares. Although he never talks in his sleep,

, she could tell this from the changes in his expression when he fell asleep. Not to mention, he had woken up many times, and every time he woke up, his eyes and expressions that he had no time to restrain were the same...

Grieving to the extreme.

Therefore, even once, she hoped that this man could have a good sleep and a good dream.

"..." Senju Hashirama fell silent.

"?" The girl blinked her big eyes and looked down at him, as if to say——

Lord Hashirama, is that okay?

Senju Hashirama asked softly: "Is this okay for Hoshi-chan?"

"Yes." The girl replied in the affirmative without hesitation, "That's fine."

"This is an opportunity to make a wish to Senju Hashirama, the first Hokage of Konoha Hidden Village," Senju Hashirama said half-jokingly, "Do you know how many people want to make a wish? So, I really just want to make such a simple wish.

?”

"As long as this is enough." The girl pulled off the man's hand from her face and carefully put it back on the quilt, thinking in her heart - this is not a simple wish, because this is the majestic Konohagakure

Is it something that Senju Hashirama, the first Hokage of the village, has never been able to do?

"Hey..." Senju Hashirama sighed as if accepting his fate, "It's really difficult... I've always been a man of my word..."

"Yeah, yes, Hashirama-sama, you have to keep your word~" the girl replied with a smile - since she made a promise, she must keep it. This is what he and Tobirama-sama have always taught her.

.

Senju Hashirama thought: That's why this matter is difficult to handle, because things like sleep are actually difficult to control. Although he has always had a somewhat "self-defeating" mentality and ignored it, he still can't

Make sure you can do it if you want to do it.

"So," the girl was keenly aware of Senju Hashirama's dilemma, "If there is anything I can do to help, Hashirama-sama, just say it. Ah, I will help you light the spices prepared by Tobirama." She said.

While saying this, he quickly stood up and lit the incense in the corner.

Smoke rises.

The soothing aroma soon spread to every corner of the house.

Therefore, Senju Hashirama, who was slightly in a daze, looked up at the girl who knelt down and sat back beside him. For a moment, he didn't know what he was thinking about or what he was thinking. Or, he didn't think about anything, just because of Dashu's thoughts.

Wanting to get close to the little tree, the big golden retriever had the instinct to get close to the little black cat. He suddenly opened his arms towards her and said with a smile: "Then, Hoshi-chan, give me a hug."

A warm, soft hug that is reassuring may give him a good night's sleep.

Then, he saw the girl's eyes widen slightly, as if she was a little surprised.

He didn't speak, just waited patiently.

Then, the girl smiled gently and brilliantly again, leaned down and gave him a hug that was indeed warm, soft to the extreme and extremely reassuring.

"Hashirama-sama, good night." She said softly as if she was afraid of disturbing his sleep.

Senju Hashirama tightened his arms little by little, took a deep breath, and felt that his nose was filled with the fresh scent of the girl, like the trees beside the spring.

"……Um."
Chapter completed!
