Hyuga Kei was actually not so sure whether the disguised Will of Fire could truly gain the trust of Hiruzen Sarutobi after this trial.
The third generation is indeed the one who has been in charge of Konoha for many years. Even Hyuga Kei can't feel his true emotions from him.
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen admired him very much on the surface and even entrusted him with important tasks, Hinata Kei felt that he could not let down his guard yet.
Just like the Hyuga clan, he originally thought that the clan, which didn't have much ink in the original work, was like that, but what happened?
Hinata Yasuhiro not only sent Hinata Haru, but even Hinata Akira to test him, and this may not be the end.
The last time he almost got tricked made Hyuga Kei understand a truth: never look down on others just because you are foresight, otherwise you will suffer consequences sooner or later.
After coming out of the Hokage Building, Hinata Kei went home directly. Just when he was thinking about what to do in the afternoon, Hinata Haru appeared. She said, "The clan leader and the great elder want to see you."
"Okay, here we go." Hinata Kei said.
Side by side with Hinata Haru, Hinata Kei was thinking about this unexpected meeting while walking.
The family wanted to see him at this time, most likely because of his fight with Uchiha Tiehuo in the morning.
Because of thinking, Hinata Kai didn't leave very quickly, and Hinata Haru didn't rush him. But when she was approaching the clan area, she suddenly asked: "Have you already gained the strength of a jounin?"
Hinata Kei was now sure, so he said: "It should be there, but I'm not sure."
Hinata Haru was silent for a while. She looked straight ahead. She quickened her pace slightly and walked in front of Hinata Kai. She said, "If you have anything to say, don't hide it."
After saying this, Hinata Haru quickened his pace again, completely distanced himself from Hinata Kai.
"Thank you, Haru." Hinata Kei expressed his thanks with a gentle smile.
"Don't get me wrong, if you dare to do anything that harms the family, I won't help you." Ri Xiangchun's tone was very serious, and it was obvious that he was not joking.
Hinata Kei quickened his pace and caught up, walked to Hinata Haru's side again and stood side by side with her. He said, "You know me, I am just an ordinary psychiatrist, how can I do these things?"
It is said that distance creates beauty, but from a psychological point of view, shortening the distance will make both parties closer. The premise is that the other party does not hate you, otherwise it will only have the opposite consequences.
Hinata Haru wanted to distance herself again, but when she saw the warm smile on Hinata Kai's face, she hesitated and did not choose to do so again.
The two walked side by side to the Irumune family residence. Hinata Haru stayed outside, while he walked into the meeting hall alone.
Sensing Hinata Hizashi and Hyuga Yasuhiro sitting on the chairs, Hyuga Kei smiled and said: "Master Patriarch, Great Elder. Are you looking for me?"
Hinata Hizu nodded and said, "How are you doing during this period of rest? Do your eyes still hurt?"
"It's much better, thanks to my family's love for me."
"Why did I hear that you got into trouble?" Hinata Yasuhiro said with a serious expression, "It's better to fight with the Uchiha people!"
"Great Elder, don't blame Qi. Young people are sometimes impulsive."
Hinata Hinata tried to dissuade him, and then comforted him by saying, "Kai, if there is any misunderstanding, explain it to the elder immediately. He just cares too much about you juniors."
Hinata Kei looked at the two people singing in front of him, keeping a respectful expression on his face, but in his heart he felt that their behavior was a bit ridiculous.
It is obvious that Hinata Hiashi and Hinata Yasuhiro are now using a very classic psychology.
In management psychology, people call the phenomenon of positive and negative psychological effects of praise and criticism: the white-faced, red-faced effect.
The white face here actually refers to criticism, which prohibits people's negative behaviors from a negative perspective. Red face refers to praise, which positively motivates people to produce positive behaviors.
By hitting and caressing, it is easy to dispel people's wariness, so that the target is willing to actively cooperate.
"I'm sorry, I caused trouble to the family." Hinata Kei apologized in the direction of Hinata Yasuhiro. He said: "This incident was caused by Uchiha Tiehuo's suspicion that I was related to Shisui's death..."
He told the general story of the matter without any concealment, and Hinata Kai simply admitted his mistake.
"So that's it. It seems that you are not entirely to blame for this matter."
Hinata Yasuhiro's expression softened slightly and he asked: "But how did you suppress Uchiha Tiehuo? He is a jounin, right? If I remember correctly, you should be a chuunin."
This time, Hyuga Hizu did not speak, but Hyuga Keize said calmly: "On the one hand, he underestimated the enemy, so he was suppressed by me after getting close. On the other hand, it is because my strength has improved."
Hinata Hizu showed doubts at the right time, and asked: "Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter as being promoted to jounin earlier? The elder was worried that you would suffer a disadvantage."
"Sorry for making the family worried." Hinata Kei lowered his head slightly and said, "Actually, this is because I am not sure whether I have the strength of a jounin."
"You also know my current situation. I can't use my Byakugan ability. Even if my strength improves, I'm afraid it will be useless."
Pointing at his gray-black eyes, Hinata Kei showed a sad expression and sighed deeply.
"It seems that I misunderstood you." Hinata Yasuhiro's face finally stopped being serious, and he said: "You don't have to be sad, there will always be a way to deal with the eyes."
"I understand. Thank you to the great elder and clan leader for your continued concern." Hinata Kei said.
Hearing Hinata Yasuhiro's answer, he knew that the matter was over.
Although it is a bit shameless for a man of his age to be miserable. But there is no way. Psychological resonance and sympathy can sometimes have excellent results.
As he said, he is just a blind jounin now. As a Hinata, he can't even use his Byakugan. Such an existence does not pose any threat at all.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, it's good to resolve it." Hinata Hizashi stood up and walked to Hinata Kei. He said: "In order to avoid the Uchiha side who may come to trouble you again, you should stay at home honestly during this period. out."
"But I still have something to do here, and I have to go out during this period..." Hinata Kei looked embarrassed and wanted to refuse.
However, before Hinata Kai could finish his words, Hinata Yasuhiro interrupted. He said without any doubt: "Don't refuse, this is the clan leader who cares about you. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it later."
Hearing this reason, Hinata Kei couldn't help but admire in his heart that some people can be so shameless.
It was obviously a disguised attempt to increase control over him, but now he could say it in such a high-sounding way.
Facing the impending imprisonment, Hinata Kai did not panic.
If he had faced this situation before today, he might not have been able to do anything about it, but it was different now.
