Naruto Uchiha: Two or three things

"he is....？"Terumi Mei looked at her movement, then narrowed her eyes in confusion.

"Momochi Zabuza?"

Nan Ming nodded, looked at Terumi Mei who seemed to be hesitant, and spoke slowly.

"What's wrong, madam, are you still worried that he will accidentally kill his teammates?"

Terumi Mei shrugged,"Although I know he doesn't have that ability, I don't want to distract myself from my teammates when facing the enemy."

At this time, Zabuza walked over slowly.

"Hey you." He pointed at Zhen Ming,"I am willing to be your teammate, but in the meantime I have to say that I will only act with you in group tasks. If you get into any trouble when acting alone, I will not will help you."

Although these words sounded very unpleasant, Nan Ming still nodded.

The situation is urgent now. If we follow what Mei Ming thinks and find a teammate who can get through it, has a docile personality, and is still holding back, we can The current personnel reserves of Kirigakure are simply impossible to reach the sky. Those who are capable usually have personalities, but for Zabuza, Nan Ming is not completely unsure of assimilating him into a normal person.

For example, Zabuza in front of him, Although what he said was still so unpalatable, at least his expression was no longer particularly fierce.

Nan Ming turned to look at Terumi Mei at this moment, asking her opinion with her eyes.

Terumi Mei looked at her and looked at her twice. Eye Zabuza then nodded.

"Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, we will gather at the first training ground to get used to it first."

Zabuza didn't say anything after seeing this, turned around and left.

Looking at his back as he walked away quickly, Nan Ming stretched himself, looking as lazy as a black cat basking in the sun.

"Okay, then....Captain Terumi Mei, as compensation, should you treat me to a massage?"

Terumi Mei crossed her arms and curled her lips.

"Yes, yes. But don't call me that. Nan

Ming chuckled when he heard this, and walked forward one body ahead of her.

"Okay captain, no problem captain."

More than ten minutes later, the two of them were walking home side by side.

The Terumi family's mansion can be said to be in the busiest area of ​​​​the entire Kirigakure. The streets in the southeast, northwest and northwest are all filled with various vendors. If you wander around for a while, your eyes will be dazzled.

Although Terumi Mei is a very down-to-earth young lady, she has almost zero contact with things like street stalls over the years. As for the reason, Nan Ming can think of it with his toes. It must be It's her extremely controlling father who doesn't let her eat from these food stalls. The reasons are bad for your stomach, unhygienic, and cutting off your living expenses. Any of these reasons can deprive Terumi Mei of her right to touch them. So when Nan Ming asked her When there were any delicious stalls around, Terumi Mei racked her brains to think of them, but couldn't think of any.

Nan Ming was not in a hurry when she saw this. It happened that she remembered that she still had money to pay back, so she looked up. Around me, I draw a road map in my mind

"follow me."

Although Terumi Mei didn't know what the other person wanted to do, she still followed the man's footsteps with great trust. After walking for five minutes, the two stopped in front of a small blue shop.

Terumi Mei looked up and down at this place. Instead of going to a big stall, my eyes fell on a few bright yellow characters.

"A-Sichuan-grilled-squid-fish" is followed by a string of slightly smaller characters.

"Kirigakure specialties."

Terumi Mei frowned and didn't seem to think too much about it. This stall was obviously not very eye-catching on a street, but there was a lot of smoke and fire here, and there were five or six customers queuing up to buy skewers in front of the grill.

Seeing that there were still a lot of people, Nan Ming quickly ran to the nearby shop and bought two crispy bone balls to bake, ready to fill his stomach first. When he came back, he saw Terumi Mei was still staring at the shop and didn't know what he was thinking, so he walked back to her side silently , reached out and waved the bunch of things in front of her eyes.

"What are you thinking about? Terumi

Mei suddenly came back to her senses, her eyes focused on the crispy bone pills in front of her, and then she breathed out softly.

"nothing...."She stretched out her hand and took the skewers naturally, her eyes still looking at the man who was grilling the skewers silently under the pale yellow light.

Wondering why so many people buy it even though the store is not big?

Terumi Mei's eyes widened slightly after being told the truth, and the movement of biting the bamboo stick stopped abruptly.

Nan Ming did not continue to explain, but turned around and said hello to the man with a smile.

"Oh, Uncle Chuan, long time no see."

Unknowingly, the queue in front of the stall had dispersed at this moment, leaving only the two of them standing in front of them.

Chuan Wenyan raised his head from the rising heat, and was briefly stunned after seeing Nan Ming's face. For a moment, then a smile bloomed

"I remember, you are Nan Ming, right?"

Nan Ming couldn't help but twitching her lips when she saw that Chuan still remembered her.

"Yes, Uncle Chuan, I fulfilled my promise and came to pay back the money."

Nan Ming took out a five-hundred-yuan coin from his wallet and was about to hand it to the other party, but unexpectedly, Xiangchuan pushed Nan Ming's hand away with a serious look on his face.

"Girl, why should I pay back this little money? Let’s talk about it later."

When Nan Ming saw this, he was just about to continue pushing and pulling. Terumi Mei, who was behind him, walked slowly to her side, took out two thousand-yuan bills and placed them on the wooden table.

Nan Ming followed the sound and looked at her, while Terumi Mei Ming Ze raised his chin at the coin in her hand. Nan Ming immediately understood and placed the coin on top of the banknotes.

"His name is Uncle Chuan, right?" Terumi Mei glanced at the man,"I don't know what's delicious here, please just serve the two of us within the range of two thousand yuan."

Chuan looked a little embarrassed when he heard this. After all, he didn't know the taste of the two people in front of him. What should he do if he was served a dish he didn't like?

"Don't worry, Uncle Chuan, we are not picky eaters, as long as we can eat enough."Nan Ming said.

After listening to Nan Ming's words, Chuan smiled again.

"OK! The two of you will sit next to me for a while, and your food will be ready soon."

The two of them walked slowly to the wooden table nearby and sat down. Nan Ming looked at each other and spoke slowly.

"Um....Going back to the previous question, do you understand it now?"

Terumi Mei was startled for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she slowly spoke.

"Because the food is delicious?"

"That's right. Nan Ming chuckled lightly,"Vendors such as barbecue stalls generally do not work all year round. They mostly work in summer." Because of the hot weather, everyone likes to play in the water to cool off, not to mention the unique geographical location of Kirigakure Village. In summer, those who gather at the beach are not all about money."

"But in other seasons, barbecue is actually not very popular. For people like Uncle Chuan, it is most likely that he has accumulated so much popularity because of his good craftsmanship and his personality of not caring about trivial details."

"Look, just for a moment, the team lined up again."

Nan Ming raised her arm and pointed to the barbecue stall behind her with her thumb. Terumi Mei also followed her movements and saw that there was a long queue of people in front of the stall. While chatting, a few people The plate had been brought up by Chuan, and Nan Ming squinted his eyes and observed what was on the plate in front of him.

A pile of various barbecue skewers that almost formed a hill, two large skewers of squid, two bowls of seafood chowder, Two bottles of lemon tea for relieving tiredness.

Terumi Mei could not help but widen her eyes slightly when she saw the portion of the dishes in front of her.

"Two thousand yen....Can you buy so many things?"

Nan Ming was already eating fried rice with skewers. She looked at the surprised look in his eyes and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Miss, not everyone can live a wealthy life."

As soon as she finished speaking, Terumi Mei quickly rolled her eyes at her. Nan Ming was not angry when she saw this. She chewed the grilled fish in her mouth, and her thoughts couldn't help but go back to a few years ago when she still had to risk her life to do tasks to make money. At that time, she was isolated by most of the Uchiha clan. Shisui was the only one who accompanied her to and from school, shopping and eating. But in fact, Nan Ming didn't need Shisui's care. She could live a fulfilling life by herself. , it’s just that he is relatively poor in terms of money. And Shisui also understands that he just wants to be able to confirm every day that Nan Ming will not go to the rooftop to free fall because of troubles.

Unconsciously, there was only a man and a woman left in front of the stall. Talking leisurely with Chuan

"Ouch, Ah Chuan, in this entire Kirigakure Village, I have never tasted grilled squid better than yours. To be honest, I was allergic to seafood before. When I first started dating my wife, she didn’t know about me, so she excitedly came to take me to eat your barbecue. I couldn’t refuse, so I just took the first bite. I knew I would never be able to forget this taste in my life."The man said.

The woman on the side pinched the man's arm hard first. After hearing the other man's cry of pain, she looked at him distressedly.

"Ah Chuan, do you think he is stupid? He had a large rash on his body as soon as he got home after the barbecue, and he was sent to the hospital overnight."

But the man giggled twice. He touched the woman's head, with a happy smile on his face.

"Isn't this just to chase you?.....As you will know later, I come to Ah Chuan every week and order ten skewers of grilled squid at one o'clock. In the end, I desensitize myself by eating it."

"Okay, okay, let’s not talk about it for now. It’s our wedding in a month. Achuan, you must come. Chuan nodded, then wiped the sweat from his forehead with the white towel hanging around his neck, smiling warmly and honestly.

"OK, definitely!"

Seeing that the conversation between the three of them was over, Terumi Mei came back to her senses, looked at the half-eaten squid in her hand, and murmured to herself.

"you say.....Is there really the kind of person who will remember a store for a lifetime?"

"some. Nan Ming stirred the lemon tea in his hand with a straw,"But the focus is not on the store, but on the people who run the store.""

Somehow, the figure of Naruto Uzumaki suddenly appeared in Nan Ming's mind. A few years later, on a rainy night, he would carefully hide behind the Ichiraku Ramen store and secretly watch Uncle Ichiraku's busy work. Back view. It was Ichiraku's kindness that allowed Naruto to not be hostile to others during that period, and to still face things and things optimistically and cheerfully.

"The warmth in the world cannot be measured with cold money. Nan Ming smiled."I know.".....It's hard for you to believe what I said now. But it doesn't matter, just take your time. At least before your father kicks me out, I will take you outside to play often."

The little sun that is strong and can warm others, I don't know when it will be until I and Naruto meet in a real sense.

But Nan Ming knows that by that time, he will be fully capable of killing the enemy with his own hands. , it is also the time when she is fully capable of protecting the people she cherishes.

Before that, she still has a long way to go. Only she can understand the pain of being stripped away.

Terumi Mei looked at the appearance of the person in front of her, and her heart suddenly rose. She has developed some other feelings. Growing up, all she has faced is use and lies, family hatred, and flattery. She has seen these things so many times that now she has lost the courage to contact others again. and motivation.

But the person in front of her was different.

She unexpectedly read two words from Nan Ming's eyes, actions, and words.

Sincerity.

The corners of Terumi Mei's mouth raised slightly, and her inner liking for Nan Ming increased a little.. She still hasn’t realized that her subconscious hostility towards Nan Ming has almost disappeared.

"Alas, having said that, after eating it for so long, I haven’t heard your evaluation yet."Nan Ming asked.

Terumi Mei paused and looked at Nan Ming with a hint of recognition.

"They are all good, but when it comes to fried rice....It's still a bit worse than what you did."

Hearing this rare compliment, Nan Ming couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Does it shock you to praise you?"

Nan Ming nodded immediately, but when he saw the look in his eyes that was about to kill someone, he immediately shook his head.

"Since the eldest lady has praised me so much, I will reluctantly give you this opportunity. Whatever you want to eat, as long as I can get the ingredients, I'll make it for you"

"Who wants you to be a chef? You'd better focus on getting used to the team in the next few days. I don't want to be accidentally injured by the two of you."

Nan Ming chuckled lightly, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.

"Don't worry, it's not difficult for the leng-headed boy."
