Although there were some unexpected episodes in the middle, overall, the plan went smoothly.

The stronghold detained the captured intelligence dealer for one night, and then sent a few people to assist Harry and his party to escort him back to Konoha for further interrogation. This task was considered to be completely completed.

After handing in the task, Harry yawned, dragged his exhausted body back to his apartment, took a bottle of cold medicine, and then fell headfirst on the bed and fell asleep.

After deciding to stay in Konoha for a long time, Harry began to think about buying real estate.The accumulated income from reselling potions is enough for him to buy an entire mansion, but obviously, that would be too 'blockbuster'.

So he lived in the Anbu dormitory for three or four years, taking time to look around from time to time.When he collected and hoarded all kinds of potions and alchemy materials to the point that even the dormitory with the expansion spell could not be piled up, he finally found a house with a reasonable price and good conditions.

The apartment is located on the top floor, and the building itself is on a higher terrain, so it has a wide view, good ventilation and lighting.The whole apartment building is located on the edge of the core business district of the village, very close to the market, hospital, and school, but since it is next to a park in the middle of the street, it will not be too noisy.

Even better, the apartment building has two rooms per floor, and another apartment on the same floor happens to be for sale.

After thinking about it, Harry paid for both apartments, one for himself and the other for OrangeWater.

Although this decision received Orange Water's disapproving reply of "Who wants to live with you at the opposite door", he still treated both apartments equally and cleaned them neatly so that they could move in with their bags.

Cheng Shui insisted on staying in the Anbu dormitory, saying that anyway, he was so busy with his missions that he spent only a handful of hours in the village all year round, so it was more convenient to live in the dormitory.

Harry didn't think so - for various reasons, he preferred to have more privacy.So not long after the house was renovated, he quickly packed his luggage and moved into his new home.

Even if it takes two or three months to go home and sleep, at least this sleep can be comfortable.

Harry originally thought that this vacation would be the same as before, as short as one day or even one night, but he didn't know if it was because the Chinese New Year was approaching, and all forces were restrained, and no new missions were dispatched for a long time.

He was so happy that he started to prepare gifts for his friends.

On this day, Orochimaru happened to come to deliver the reward for a potion order, Harry asked casually, "Is there anything you want?"

Gifts are the embodiment of heart and friendship. Of course, you should think about what to give, but it doesn't hurt to refer to the needs of the person occasionally, isn't it?

Orochimaru glanced at him, and replied lightly: "No. You can give it as you like, except kitchen utensils made of thin iron."

Rare iron is commonly known as chakra metal.On Orochimaru's birthday a while ago, Harry gave him a kitchen knife made of chakra metal.Yes, it is a kitchen knife for cutting vegetables, meat and bones, specially for cooking.

Also included with the gift is a greeting card with Amway written all over it, to the effect that this knife is really easy to cook with, the blade is so sharp that it never needs to be sharpened, and even the hardest beef leg bones can be chopped off at once.

——Is this not nonsense?Chakra metal is generally used to make ninja tools and weapons, even small blades made of it, with the help of Chakra, can be decisive.

Because of this, the price of pure chakra metal is extremely expensive, and it is usually sold in grams. Most ninjas can buy a small dagger at their limit. ... No, this is not a question of whether it is expensive or not at all, because the sources are scarce, and chakra metals are often priced but not marketed, in other words, they cannot be bought even if they have money.

And now, someone hit a kitchen knife with it?kitchen knife? ?

Although Harry explained in time that the kitchen knife was made of a mixture of various metals, and the content of rare iron in it was not high, it didn't delay Orochimaru thinking that he was reckless.

So when he heard that he was asking for suggestions for New Year's gifts, Orochimaru brought it up again, and the meaning was very clear: stop making any messy innovative 'inventions', my little heart can't stand it, really.

Harry has inherited the pragmatism of wizards, and it is really difficult to understand the thoughts of ninjas—whether it is the change of the five elements of Chakra, or inventions such as sealing scrolls, they are all very useful technologies, but the ninjas only want to use them. They are used in combat, never thought of as improving the quality of life.This is not as good as ordinary Muggles, at least they all have the awareness of using advanced technology to liberate productivity.

However, the person involved clearly expressed his dissatisfaction, and he would not force it. He shrugged and said, "Okay, then I'll give you some magic gadgets." ——The small scale that can automatically weigh the weight last time feels good when you use it. How about it?"

"Yes, it's quite convenient." Orochimaru thought for a while, and then said, "I just don't know if it's been used for a long time, and it's not as accurate as it was at the beginning. I'll calibrate it for you next time I come over."

The two chatted for a while, and a figure suddenly jumped in from the window: "Oh, Orochimaru, you are here!"

Most ninjas have a habit: they don't like to go through the door, they only like to open the window.Harry's apartment was on the top floor, with eaves above the windows, which added to the inappropriateness.Except for Ichiga and Orochimaru who would ring the doorbell or knock on the door in a serious manner every time, other visitors basically entered the house through the windows.

Harry no longer made a fuss about it, and greeted the visitor freely: "Ji Lai? Long time no see."

Orochimaru also said: "Oh? You are finally discharged from the hospital? How is the half-month trip to the hospital?"

More than half a month ago, Jiraiya went to spy on the women's bathhouse as usual, and Tsunade happened to be there too, he couldn't hold back the prehistoric power in his heart, and exclaimed.

Taking it for granted, he was discovered, and Tsunade was furious on the spot, and he couldn't help but pin him to the ground with a hammer.When the onlookers who persuaded the fight rescued him, although his life was safe, there was no good bone in his body.

"Don't mention it." Ji Lai also had lingering fears when he thought about it, and he waved his hands again and again, "Lying in bed every day, you can't go anywhere, and you can only drink porridge and pickles. Life is really hard!"

Orochimaru raised his eyelids, and said angrily, "You should."

Ji Lai also laughed twice, turned his gaze around, and locked on one of the unwrapped gifts on the table next to him.

"Eh?!" He yelled as if he had discovered a new world, picked up the top book in the series, and flipped through it fondly, "The "Honey Love" series! It's still a hardcover collector's edition!... Ah Hui, you can read it too. this?"

The color scheme of the cover of that book is clichéd bright red and green, with exaggerated peach hearts painted on it, and the full title of the book is "The Hidden World: A Love of Sweet Love" - ​​you can tell from the name that it is not a serious book.

Harry shook his head: "I didn't see it, I bought it for others."

This is not a blunt excuse after being caught reading the little pornographic book, he really intends to give this set of books as a gift.

Because of what happened in the last mission, he was planning when he came back, thinking about buying a popular science education book on the physical health of men and women for Yihe to study hard.It's a pity that there is a reason for the lack of common sense among ninjas-no physiology knowledge textbooks have been published on the market.

He had no choice but to go to the most popular 'men's favorite' recommended by the bookstore owner.

It has to be said that, as an erotic novel, "Honey Love" really knows how to catch readers' eyes, the car is seen at the beginning, and the scene description is vivid, fragrant|flavorful and hot, even a man can't stand it.

It's okay, 90.00% of the boys grow into adults, and they can't do without the help of various books and magazines.With Hinata's strict tutoring, Yihe probably has never read pornographic books, so he still doesn't know anything at the age of nearly 20, and there is no harm in being enlightened.

So Harry waved his hand, packed and bought the full hardcover set, and prepared to give it to Yihe as a New Year's gift.

Jiraiya confirmed again and again that after confirming that this set of books was really bought by Harry for his friends, he showed a look of envy and longing.

"That's great! Why didn't anyone give me such a gift?" He glanced at his old teammates as he said, frequently hinting with his eyes.

Orochimaru turned a blind eye to Jiraiya's eyes that were blinking like cramp, and focused on advising Harry: "Isn't it inappropriate to give this kind of thing to someone?"

"I think it's okay...?" Harry thought about it for a while, and didn't think there was anything wrong, "Anyway, he's an adult, so it's not a big deal to read this kind of book. Besides, I think he needs it quite a bit. , and he doesn’t know how to buy it himself, so I can only give it to him.”

Zilai was speechless, and sighed loudly: "Look, friends from other people's family! Other people's friendship!"

Orochimaru was finally annoyed by him unbearably. He frowned and gave him a serious look: "You don't know how to buy it yourself? Your bookshelf is full of these books, and you still need a gift from me?"

"You can't say that, what you buy is what you buy, what you buy is what you buy, and the gift is what you have in mind!" Zilai also said forcefully. Forget it, we were assigned to the same team when we were six years old, and I have confiscated a few birthday presents!"

Orochimaru crossed his arms and sneered: "Okay, I'll supply it to you another day. But if we are a three-person team, it is more appropriate for two of us to send it together. Let me tell Tsunade what you mean?"

"—Don't!" Jiraiya jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on, and screamed to stop this dangerous thought, "Don't!"

Orochimaru was not surprised by his reaction at all, and gave him a glance: "Is this cowardly? It seems that half a month in the hospital is really not in vain."

Ji Lai also knew he was wrong, touched his nose, and wisely changed the topic.

The discussion about New Year's gifts has just been uncovered.On the eve of New Year's Eve, Harry sent several gifts separately to ensure that everyone could receive his blessing on time when the New Year's Eve bell rang.

As a result, on the first day of the new year, the return letter hadn't arrived yet, so Yihe came to the door first.
