[Hokage] Sasuke-kun's Melancholy

Orochimaru looked at the sobbing Hitomi with interest, narrowed his long and narrow golden eyes slightly: "Don't cry, he doesn't want you anymore."

Hitomi couldn't listen to his words at all, her eyes had become red and swollen from crying, and she kept wiping away the tears with her sleeves, but the tears still overflowed continuously.

"Why... why..." Crying and crying, Hitomi actually hiccupped, because she couldn't speak well, she cried even more sadly, "Sasuke...it's...hiccup...because... ... Hitomi... can't say... words... so... so... don't... hiccup... don't you want me..."

Dashemaru listened to her intermittent words with a headache, looked at Hitomi who was rubbing his eyes and crying there, he waved to her: "Come here."

Hitomi's crying became quieter, and he raised his head and looked at Dashemaru hesitantly, as if he was hesitating in his heart whether to go or not. Dashemaru kept the waving posture for a long time, until he felt that his arms were a little sore, Hitomi finally Slowly moved to his bed, lowered his head like a child who did something wrong, ears and tail drooping sullenly.

"Although you don't listen to me now, have you forgotten what I taught you before?" Orochimaru's gaze and his golden pupils became sharper, "Have you forgotten?"

"...No," although Hitomi was still sobbing, but gradually calmed down, "I remember, only the weak cry."

"Since you remember..." Orochimaru choked on what Hitomi said before finishing his sentence.

"But what do you mean weak?"

"..." Orochimaru silently looked at Hitomi who tilted his head in doubt, the corners of his eyes twitched, "Anyway, don't cry, Sasuke probably doesn't like the way you cry."

"Yes, is it?" Hitomi hurriedly wiped her face with her sleeve, "Then I won't cry!"

Orochimaru:"……"

It seems that moving out Sasuke is much more useful than him.

"If the owner of the fierce beast is unwilling, I do remember that it is..." Dashemaru looked at his weak hands with heavy eyes, "Sasuke doesn't know about this yet, and he will definitely come to pick you up when he knows, after all He is also from Konoha."

Saying that, Orochimaru smiled lowly: "Anyway, you can stay with me for now."

Orochimaru's words made Hitomi stay. Taking this opportunity, he also observed the scene where Hitomi's tail and ears gradually disappeared and retracted to his body at the end of the full moon. At that time, Hitomi also turned back to a pitch-black color, saying Speaking of this, Orochimaru said with some regret at the time that he preferred golden eyes.

But Hitomi doesn't care what Orochimaru likes, she only cares what Sasuke likes, standing in front of the mirror and looking at her black eyes, Hitomi happily said: "It's the same as Sasuke!"

"It's full of Sasuke Sasuke," Orochimaru snorted coldly, and turned a page in the book in his hand, "Have you forgotten who rescued you?"

"Hey," Hitomi smirked, "I know, it's Father Snake."

"..." Orochimaru's hand holding the book froze, and turned another page uncomfortably, "Who allowed you to call that?"

Hitomi blinked, and searched for the names of relatives similar to her father in her mind: "Uncle Snake?"

Orochimaru's hands tightened suddenly, and the book in his hand was wrinkled, and he said slowly, "You should be called Oshemaru-sama, Oshemaru-sama."

He emphasized the words Dashemaru-sama, and seeing Hitomi nodded seriously before continuing to focus on the book.

"Hey, Uncle Snake, why didn't Sasuke come to pick me up?"

Orochimaru:"……"

Sasuke, who had been missed by Tong Xin, was practicing hard in the forest clearing. He didn't know whether it was someone who missed him too much or what. He sneezed suddenly, and then stared blankly at the leaves that were gradually turning yellow. Winter was coming.

The country of Tianzhi is no different from Konoha in the country of fire. There are obvious four seasons here. The summer is very hot and the winter is also very cold. When some white snow covered the ground, a certain animal at the Orochimaru base became more and more lethargic, drowsy all day long, almost as sleepy every day as if it had entered the hibernation period.

The pocket who delivered the medicine to Dashewan on time every day glanced at Hitomi who was sleeping on the blanket, and then put the plate with the medicine on the table next to the bed: "Is this okay? The symptoms have already begun to appear."

"It is only when symptoms appear that I can be sure that what is said in the literature is true," Dashewan raised the corner of his mouth, "so that I can know whether that sentence is true."

"But the owner she recognizes now is Sasuke." Toru stretched out his hand to help his eyes, "Of course, Sasuke's body will belong to Oshemaru-sama soon."

"It's almost time to reveal that news to Sasuke," Orochimaru shifted his gaze to the sleeping Hitomi, "let the experimental subjects spread the word."

"Understood, Master Orochimaru." Todo nodded slightly.

Hitomi opened her eyes in a daze. Lying on her side, she looked at her hand in the field of vision. She struggled to get up but felt that she had no strength at all, so she could only lie down discouraged.She was able to move freely two days ago, but she often felt sleepy, and now she could barely move.

"Uncle Snake..." Hitomi called out softly, "Has Sasuke come yet..."

"Soon." Orochimaru flipped through the document in his hand, Hitomi's current inability to move was exactly the same as what was recorded above, if it continued like this, within a week, Hitomi would be greeted with death.

I didn't expect that a powerful beast would have such a weakness. No wonder there are no conditions recorded in the literature on how to become the owner of a beast. Presumably, once added, those beasts that are still alive in this world will definitely be used by humans who know the inside story , if you can control the will of the beast, it is no problem to conquer a country.

The final result is nothing more than becoming a tool for killing.

Hitomi tried very hard to stay awake, but she couldn't resist the heavier and heavier eyelids, and her whole body was dizzy. It didn't take long for Orochimaru to find that she had fallen asleep again.

"It's already extremely weak." Orochimaru murmured to himself in a low voice, and his fingers slid across some yellowed ancient documents, "Gradually, you will not be able to wake up, your muscles will atrophy, your organs will fail, and in the end, your heartbeat and Stop breathing together."

"What a sad fate, beast."

Orochimaru raised the corner of his mouth, raised his head and looked at the closed door: "It came faster than I thought."

As his words fell, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and the door was pushed open without even a knock. The black-haired boy who entered the door scanned around the room anxiously, and saw the wall. Hitomi, who was lying on the blanket with his eyes closed, exhaled slowly and looked at Orochimaru, "I heard something about Hitomi from the experimental subject."

"Even so, you are too rude," Orochimaru put away the documents in his hands calmly, "Or is there something important that can make you forget etiquette?"

"What's the matter, you should be the clearest, right?" Sasuke's eyes turned cold, "Is what they said true?"

"The one who doesn't want her is you, isn't it?" Orochimaru's narrow eyes narrowed, "Or, do you regret what you said at that time?"

Sasuke lowered his face, and his clenched fists made the sound of bone rubbing: "You just need to tell me, yes or no."

He stared closely at the change of Orochimaru's expression, although the answer was about to surface, but he didn't want to let the strange feeling of guilt arise in his heart, and Orochimaru also watched the change of Sasuke's expression as if watching a good show, After a while, he said, "Yes."

Sasuke clenched and loosened his hands subconsciously, hesitantly looked at Hitomi who seemed to be asleep: "Then she now..."

"As you can see, I'm already unconscious."

Sasuke frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, why didn't you tell me in the first place?"

"Since Sasuke handed her over to me, isn't the subtext that her life and death has nothing to do with you?" Orochimaru's tone became mocking, "Or, your determination is so easily shaken."

"..." Sasuke's somewhat restrained and angry expression was instantly put away by him, and turned into an expressionless face. He walked up to Hitomi without saying a word, and then stretched out his hands to hug her horizontally , "I'll take this guy away."

According to Orochimaru's aggressive tone just now, Sasuke thought that Orochimaru would stop him from taking Hitomi away, but Orochimaru just quietly watched his back disappear from the door without doing anything.

Hitomi was so light that Sasuke, who was not too tall, could easily lift her up. He couldn't help but frowned, and pinched her arm with his left hand. Sure enough, there was no flesh at all.

"Hey, Dashemaru, didn't you give her something to eat?"

When walking halfway, Hitomi barely opened her eyes, narrowed her eyes and looked at the person holding her: "Is it... Sasuke?"

"En." Sasuke responded softly, and she didn't know if Hitomi heard it, she closed her eyes again, but her hand had already tightly grasped Sasuke's lapel.

Because Hitomi was sent away, the bed that belonged to her had already been put away by Sasuke. After hesitating in the room for a few seconds, Sasuke gently put Hitomi on his bed, and pulled her hand from his lapel. down, and touched her forehead.

A piece of ice.

Hitomi, who was sleeping peacefully, completely lost the sense of noise when she was awake, and automatically huddled up on the bed. Sasuke couldn't help stretching out his hand to touch it, and suddenly felt his heart soften.

Faintly recalling the conversations of those experimental subjects, he frowned and remained silent for a while, with some struggles in his eyes, finally bent down, leaned close to Tong's ear and whispered:

"I won't leave you anymore."
