Naruto Flower Stem

Chapter 57

So we went in without causing too much commotion.

First of all, we followed Temari sister to the reception place, waiting for the guide of this exam to welcome us.But no one came after waiting for a long time.Impatiently, I stood up and lay down on the window to look out. I could only see trees and houses.

Somewhat disappointed, Gaara sat back, Gaara beside him was still very silent.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and a young man walked in, with a tall and straight body, black mid-length hair tied behind his head, eyes half-opened, and a lazy look that could not wake up. Keep muttering "It's so troublesome... so troublesome..."

This guy hasn't changed at all... Except that he's grown taller and more mature, his personality really hasn't changed for thousands of years.

I stood up in surprise and shouted "Shikamaru!"

When Shikamaru walked in with his head down, he didn't notice us at all, but when he heard my cry, he raised his head, and a trace of surprise finally appeared on his lazy face, "Stalk? Why are you here..." He shifted his gaze to the side, and was even more surprised "I. Gaara is there too?"

"Hey... Long time no see!" I greeted him.

He put his hands in his trouser pockets, and smiled at me, "Yo... I haven't seen you for two years, you haven't changed much..."

Leaning over to look at me, he seemed to want to say something but didn't say anything.

But I know if he doesn’t say it, he must want to say that apart from my hair growing and my face more delicate, my stature has hardly grown, and I am still the same as when I came to take the Chunin exam...

"But I didn't hear that you and Gaara would also come... Isn't Gaara Kazunari?" After a brief reminiscence, he began to pursue this issue again.

This is also a matter of course.

I explained patiently, "We took this opportunity to come to Konoha specially... so we will not participate in any activities related to the Chunin Exam."

"Gara is also here to play...it's really rare..." Shikamaru raised his eyebrows, looking at Gaara who was quietly sitting on a chair and staring at my back.

"Yeah." Gaara didn't explain much, just nodded indifferently.

"By the way, Shikamaru, I heard that you are the staff member of this Chunin exam?"

As soon as I heard this, Shikamaru started to scratch his head, "Yeah, I'm in trouble..."

I covered my mouth and looked at his funny look and laughed softly, "You are really afraid of trouble as always."

"Okay, let's stop talking about the old days." Temari came over, stood next to me, looked at Shikamaru opposite and said, "I didn't come here to play, you are the guide this time, hurry up and get down to business Well, really...every time I see you, you look so unmotivated..."

"Well... that's right, the task entrusted to me by the five generations, if I don't finish it well, I will be scolded..." Shikamaru yawned, raised his hand and dug his ears, he seemed to be a little energetic, originally lazy His half-closed eyes also opened.

It seems that he is not so slack when he is energetic...

"Hana, Gaara, I'm leaving first, and I'll meet you at the hotel later." Temari went to the door and opened it, turned around to say hello, and walked out.

Shikamaru followed closely behind him and also planned to go out.

I stopped him, "Hey, Shikamaru, do you know where everyone is?"

Shikamaru stopped and thought for a while, "Now only Kaiban and Sakura are still in the village, and everyone else has gone out to perform tasks."

"That's it... I see, thank you!" I nodded at him, smiled and walked to Gaara, ready to start discussing how to play these few days.

After all, time is limited.

"Then you guys have fun in the village, I'll go first." Shikamaru said and also pushed open the door and disappeared in front of our eyes.

But for me, who is now very curious, his departure really does not arouse any interest in me.

I just want to see Konoha's other friends soon.

In the Chunin exam two years ago, everyone became good comrades together.Now that Shikamaru has grown taller and handsome, the others must have changed too...

My excited face flushed slightly.

Gaara stood up and rubbed my hair "Are you happy?"

"Ok!"

Relying on my memory, I dragged Gaara around, and finally found the training ground where Kaiban has been practicing.

If everyone has no change, then their habits should not change either.

Come here and look for it, maybe you can run into them by chance.

However, as soon as we set foot around the practice range, I overheard a conversation that was both familiar and embarrassing.

"Teacher Kai! What is today's training?"

"Aha, of course it is to continue to fight for youth! Sweat! Li! Let us shout for youth!"

"Oh! Teacher Kai!"

"plum……"

"teacher……"

"Okay, then let's run 100 laps around the playground against the setting sun!"

"good teacher!"

Undoubtedly it was Xiao Li and his teacher Kai.

Hearing this, I seem to see a blue sea in front of me, the fiery red sunset is about to set, and the two kappa in green tights are facing the sea.

I quickly shook my head to clear the strange picture from my mind.

If it goes on like this, it really should be influenced by this pair of master and apprentice, shouting long live youth all day long.

Looking for the source of the sound, we got closer.

"Who?"

Suddenly, a vigilant voice floated into my ears from an open space not far away.Immediately afterwards, a kunai shot straight through the dense bushes, so fast that I couldn't dodge it in time.

Gaara pulled me behind, and the absolute defense was activated, blocking Wuku's attack.

I let out a long sigh of relief.Angrily, he rushed out of the woods and wanted to see who was so vile and attacked others casually without seeing who they were.

As soon as I rushed out, there was an open space in front of me, and the person's body was warmed by the bright sunlight.

There are four people standing in the middle of the driving range.

They are the owners of the two voices I heard just now, the guy who threw Kunai here just now, and the lovely Tian Tian.

Gaara followed me out because he was afraid that I would be attacked again, and stood behind me.

Looking at the four people not far in front, I felt a sense of intimacy and familiarity, and the joy I had not seen for a long time made me completely forget the unhappiness when I complained about the person who threw the kunai just now.

"Long time no see! Xiao Li, Tian Tian, ​​Ning Ci, Senior Kai!" I ran over like an excited bird and stood in front of them.

When they saw me suddenly appear, they all looked at me with surprised eyes, and they didn't react for a long time.

Xiao Li's reaction was quicker. As soon as he saw me running towards them, he rushed to the front first, and asked me with my familiar tone and address, "Miss Huajing! Why are you here?"
