"I'm sorry... I'm sorry. But I... really... have no... options."

Higashino Youmeng sat back on the sofa, her voice gradually choked with sobs.

She didn't cry during the painful dozens of days in the cottage, but now she started to cry.

She was just pregnant at that time, and she was never afraid of death, but she already had a child at that time, and she betrayed her savior because she was timid because of the child.

"Is there no other way? As long as you tell me the truth, I will provide you with protection. The other party has no reason and will not attack Uchiha directly because of you. They don't dare!"

Runyu sighed softly. He was once moved by the strength of the person in front of him, but today he became soft-hearted because of her tears. He finally swallowed the decision that he originally wanted to say.

The situation in the ninja world is so tense now. Konoha needs the Uchiha clan and will not be severely damaged before World War II.

The height you stand determines your field of vision. Higashino Yumu definitely doesn't know what the situation is in the ninja world, nor does he know the current weight of the Uchiha clan in Konoha Village.

"If you lose my protection, it will be easy for them to take away your life."

It is probably because she was preparing for pregnancy at home that Higashino Yumu saved her life. If she still went to work as usual, she would definitely be attacked and killed quickly.

Cutting out any exposed risks is their code of conduct.

"They didn't hurt you, they just didn't want to arouse my vigilance, or they didn't want to at that time. You once had an unbreakable protective umbrella, but today it was pierced by your own hands."

Higashino Yumeng may have hidden deep panic because Runyu found out about her meeting with the root.

In fact, he just came to visit Higashino Yumeng out of boredom, but he didn't want to cause such a thing.

"Don't leave the Uchiha clan after giving birth. They may attack you at any time. And don't cry. It's not good for the child in your body."

Runyu stood at the door and said to the choked Higashino Yumeng. He turned back and took one last look at the decoration of the living room. He might never step foot here again.

Dong Ye Youhua, who was exercising in the yard, took the initiative to say hello to Runyu, who nodded in response and then opened the door and left.

"Should we kill them?" Uchiha Reige appeared next to Runyu and suggested.

She has always had pure murderous intent towards betrayers. Even though she has gradually transformed into an accounting girl, her cold-blooded nature cannot be changed.

Although she is now an accounting girl, she always knows that protecting Runyu is the top priority. If Runyu is harmed, she will be blamed for his death.

"It seems that the account books you are asked to manage are still too few. You have to kill and kill all day long."

"Sir, do you really believe that she rejected that ninja instead of not having the chance to poison him?" Uchiha Reige asked.

Master Runyu saved their lives, provided them with the food they needed, and allowed them to live with dignity. How dare she betray Master Runyu?

Uchiha Reige's murderous intention towards Higashino Yumu has reached its peak.

"Who knows?" Runyu shook his head. He actually knew the truth. When Higashino Youmeng said that she rejected the ninja, Runyu didn't notice the deception. "In any case, she didn't resist at all.

Her confession also proves that her heart is filled with guilt."

"You are too soft-hearted." Uchiha Reige said quietly. She has witnessed everything Runyu has done. It can be said that she is the person who knows Runyu best in the world.

But if the two of them were let go so easily, Uchiha Reiyue felt very unwilling, and in an instant, a plan came into her mind.

"Drive them both outside the Uchiha clan and leave them to fend for themselves."

Since they have chosen to betray, they are no longer qualified to live here.

"If they leave the Uchiha clan, they will definitely be wiped out. In that case, it is better to kill them now. At least they will have a burial place."

Runyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but Uchiha Reige actually started to play tricks on him, openly borrowing a knife to kill people.

"She chose to hide it from me because of her child."

He observed many details that Uchiha Reige didn't notice. For example, during that time, Higashino Yumu had already found out that she was pregnant.

Originally she was brave, fearless, strong and calm, but after having a child, she developed weaknesses.

Human nature has a lot of self-interested parts, which also results in people being selfish and thinking about themselves first. But there is also a selfless part in human nature, which creates many touching stories.

Just like things have two sides, yin and yang. If the yang is too strong, it will be strong and easy to break. If the yin is not born, it will die easily.

This world is too intense, too extreme, and too pure, which is not a good phenomenon.

"So what?" Uchiha Reitsu asked, betrayal is betrayal, this is a fact and has nothing to do with the reason.

No matter how noble the reason is, it cannot change the fact of betrayal. Deception is deception, and well-intentioned deception is also deception.

"It was my mother who sacrificed herself in exchange for my birth, so I have deep respect for those great mothers."

Runyu looked up at the blue sky and said half-truthfully.

He indeed admired those great mothers, but it was not just because of his own mother, but because he came from a place so far away that he could never return.

"I will report this matter truthfully to Lord Uchiha-san." Uchiha Reige left in an instant and hid in the darkness again.

It was obvious that she was very emotional, and Runyu was used to it. Every time she felt emotional, she would report to Uchiha-san, but it was of no use. After all, it was the kind of kiss his father gave him.

But... I have to say that Uchiha Reige's small report is still somewhat useful.

After the meal, Uchiha-san gave Runyu an ideological criticism and education, mainly targeting Runyu's soft-heartedness. After all, when he gets old, the enemies Runyu will have to face will all be ruthless. Intelligence alone is not enough.

You have to have some ruthlessness.

"Father, letting Sister Dongye go or killing Sister Dongye will not have any impact on me. If it is someone who really affects my safety, I will make a decision. Rather than saying that I am soft-hearted, it is better to say that I am compassionate."

Runyu has never been soft-hearted towards those who have become enemies. Just like Higashino Youmeng's betrayal of him today, although Runyu is not happy, in the end the crime will not lead to death.

If I have to say it, Runyu's view of life is different from that of Uchiha-san and Uchiha Reige.

He respects the weight of life.

"As long as you make your own decision." Uchiha Sanfu said, after all, with his physical condition, he can still be Runyu's protective umbrella for a long time.

As long as he hasn't fallen down yet, no one else can try to bypass him and hurt Runyu.

When Nonoyu came back, he brought news that the ANBU began to contact her and wanted to incorporate her into the ANBU. Fortunately, she was blocked by Tsunade in time.

Whether it is the dark part or the root part, Runyu doesn't know.

Although Mr. Tuan's power has been reduced, the root cause has only been transferred from the public to the secret. There are still some people who are willing to obey his orders.
