At two or three in the morning, Konoha's enthusiasm gradually subsided.
It was already getting late, and the forest in the distance was shrouded in a layer of darkness, which seemed to be spreading towards the village.
The lights in Konoha Village were extinguished one after another, and the whole village returned to silence.
The streets were deserted, with only a few pigeons chirping on the eaves, and the world seemed to have fallen into deathly silence.
Shizune dragged her tired body back to the deserted ancestral home of the Thousand Hands Clan.
"Dolphin~"
"Dolphin~"
In the dark corridor on the second floor of the ancestral house, the draft at night actually made people shiver.
Shizune looked around and called a few times cautiously, but there was no response.
In the entire corridor, there was no sound except for the echo of the mute voice and the "dong-dong" sound of shoes on the floor.
Shizune carefully groped and moved in the darkness.
In this environment, Shizune seemed to be able to hear her heart pounding.
As a woman, Shizune is not very courageous, and it is inevitable for a person to be a little afraid of the dark.
I want to turn on the lights in the hallway, but I don’t want to get up and turn them off later.
After all, because of Tsunade's gambling, the two of them had basically no money in their pockets.
Shizune naturally developed the habit of frugality.
"Gugu~"
Several black bird shadows suddenly passed outside the corridor, shocking Shizune's instinct.
A bad premonition suddenly arose in my heart.
The heartbeat is getting faster and faster.
"Dolphin~"
"Dolphin~"
There was a little sweat on Shizune's head, and she started to get a little anxious, calling anxiously all the way.
He came to the bedroom where he lived and reached out to fumble for the light switch on the wall.
Soon, Shizune touched the switch.
The lights came on and the room was empty.
The room was warmer than outside. Looking at the familiar decorations in the room, Shizune breathed a sigh of relief.
Being in a bright environment, Shizune's slightly tense nerves relaxed.
"This guy, I don't know where he went to play again."
Shizune complained and closed the bedroom door.
He came to the window again, closed the window tightly, and drew the curtains.
Finally, I looked at the tight room. I don't know why, but I still feel a little bit frightened.
Maybe it's because women are naturally timid.
Shizune didn't dare to turn off the light, so she just lay on the soft bed and started to rest.
"Gugu~"
"Gugu~"
"Wow~"
There was a gust of wind outside, which made the trees in the courtyard rustle and disturbed the birds resting on the trees.
Perhaps because she was worried about Tsunade, Shizune tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
In the end, I just lay on the bed, staring at the chandelier on the ceiling and counting sheep.
"One sheep, two sheep, three sheep..."
The strong incandescent light was a bit dazzling, making Shizune look a little blurry.
She closed her eyes and wanted to turn her gaze elsewhere, but she was always a little scared in her heart.
Even though she was in the room, she still felt uneasy.
I began to fantasize about whether there would be someone else in the room, or whether there would be something dirty that could not be seen with the naked eye.
I was constantly thinking about various scenarios in my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more panicked I became.
After a while, Shizune decided to keep staring at the chandelier.
At least this will give you a little more security.
"Huhu~"
The wind picked up again, and it seemed like someone was pushing the window hard, making a loud rattling noise.
Because the ancestral house is too old, many parts have decayed. When the wind blows like this, there is a clanging sound everywhere.
"Zizzizi~"
The light seemed to have a problem with the circuit. It flickered feebly for a few times and finally went out.
The entire room was plunged into deathly darkness, except for the window-shaped light and shadow outlines on the curtains.
"Gulu~"
Shizune swallowed subconsciously and retracted her feet into the quilt, letting the warmth brought by the quilt stabilize her mood.
I don't know how long it took, but the wind outside seemed to quiet down and was no longer as noisy as before.
Shizune yawned, feeling sleepy and slowly fell asleep.
In the hazy moment, Shizune was awakened by a strange sound.
As a ninja's basic qualities, Shizune judged that the sound came from downstairs.
It's just that the sound seems a bit small, and you can't hear it if you don't listen carefully.
Shizune stood up quietly, then knelt beside the bed, slowly lowered her head, and put her ear to the floor, listening to the sounds coming from below.
"Shua~"
"Shua~"
This is......
It sounded like the sound of kunai rubbing.
Did someone break in?
Shizune's eyes narrowed and she quickly stood up, ready to go to the first floor to find out.
However, just when Shizune was about to take action, a scene suddenly flashed in her mind, and she was stunned for a moment.
He slowly leaned down, staring directly at the bottom of the bed, and slowly poked his head down.
Suddenly, Shizune's pupils shrank suddenly, and her body seemed to be mechanical.
I saw a string of pearl necklaces lying quietly under the bed.
Damn it!
Shizune grabbed the pearl necklace in her hand, stood up suddenly, pushed open the door and ran towards the first floor.
The pearl necklace has been worn around Dodo's neck from beginning to end, and Shizune has never seen Dodo take it off.
But now that the necklace was left under the bed, it was very likely that someone had entered his room before and captured the dolphin hiding under the bed.
It must have been when Doudou was struggling that the necklace fell to the ground.
The circuits in the entire ancestral house seemed to be out of order, and the light switch in the corridor was still muted and would not turn on no matter how hard it was pressed.
Soon, Shizune descended from the stairs to the corridor on the first floor in a dark environment.
But what's strange is that the room across the corridor is lit.
And this room is directly below my bedroom.
This is...the kitchen.
Shizune took out her kunai and carefully followed the innermost part of the corridor to the kitchen door.
Shizune held her breath and observed that there was a slight gap in the kitchen door.
Dang even quietly moved his head over, wanting to observe the situation inside through the crack in the door.
However, the moment Shizune's eyes came to the crack of the door, the lights in the kitchen instantly went out, leaving Shizune's eyes in darkness and unable to see anything.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
Just then, a creepy chewing sound came from inside.
Shizune was about to open the door and rush in.
Sudden!
A bloodshot eye appeared on the other side of the crack in the door, staring straight into Shizune's eyes.
Shizune's mind went blank for a moment, and the necklace and kunai she held in her hands fell to the ground.
I wanted to scream but found that something seemed to be blocking my throat and I couldn't scream.
"ah!"
Then a shrill scream sounded.
Shizune sat up straight in bed.
"Gugu~"
"Gugu~"
"哐啷哐啷...."
There were constant sounds of birds chirping outside the house, and the sound of strong wind blowing the windows.
Shizune's whole body was soaked in sweat at this time, and she kept breathing heavily.
Turning her head to look at the curtains reflecting the outline of the window, Shizune breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, a pale smile appeared on her face, and she laughed at herself:
"It turned out to be a nightmare, it scared me to death."
After saying that, he completely relaxed, closed his eyes, and lay down on the bed.
Shizune, who had been in a tense state of mind, felt extremely comfortable at this moment, and turned over lazily, with her back to the window.
Sudden!
Shizune's eyes widened suddenly.
He saw a figure standing next to his bed.
The figure mechanically held a long knife and looked at him quietly.
Shizune recognized the person in front of her through the dim light coming in through the window.
Uchiha Tunan!
I saw that Uchiha Tunan's face was pale, without any blood.
The twisted face seemed to have a strange smile, and he slowly raised the long knife.
Shizune felt as if her blood had become cold and stiff, and her entire body had lost consciousness.
I can only watch helplessly as the long knife pierces my abdomen and then slides slowly...
This feeling......
It's like the specimens on the operating table are being dissected.
"Crunch, crunch, dong, dong, dong~"
In the kitchen on the first floor, Uchiha Tunan ignored the violent vibrations coming from the ceiling above his head.
He is concentrating on spreading the boiling sake on the golden and crispy headless roast suckling pig.
After pouring the sake, Uchiha Tunan calmly tied the white napkin around his neck, picked up the knife and fork and began to enjoy.
Cutting off a small piece of meat and putting it into his mouth, Uchiha Tunan frowned slightly, shook his head and said:
"It's a little less fishy than before, but the ingredients are a bit too fatty."
Although the taste is not that good, it is a rare ingredient after all.
In line with his thrifty nature, Uchiha Tunan ate up the roasted suckling pig in one bite.
Not to mention, after eating the Uchiha Tu South Africa, I didn’t feel greasy and disgusting. Instead, I had a lingering fragrance on my lips and teeth, with endless aftertaste.
“High-end ingredients...”
Uchiha Tunan murmured, then took off his napkin and gently wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth.
The only pity is that there is only wine and no tea.
Don't scrape oil after meals.
By this time, the vibrations on the ceiling had gradually subsided.
Uchiha Tunan's mouth curled up slightly, he shook his head with a chuckle, stood up and started clearing the table.
After all, if you come to someone else's house uninvited and have a feast, you have to clean up and leave without leaving any trace.
Uchiha Tunan poured the leftovers into the trash can and carefully wiped every corner of the kitchen with paper towels.
Make sure no traces are left.
After cleaning up, Uchiha Tunan picked up the garbage in the trash can and turned off the kitchen lights.
Everything seemed so natural, as if I were at home.
When he arrived at the electrical main switch at the end of the corridor, he took out various tools from his tool bag and began to connect the previously short-circuited lines.
At this time, Uchiha Tunan no longer seemed to be a ninja, but a professional electrician.
The movements of the hands were very fast, as if they were extremely skilled.
This corresponds to that sentence.
Too many skills don't overwhelm the body.
Connecting different threads, others would be dazzled just by looking at it, and some could not tell the beginning from the end, but Uchiha Tunan was like a fish in water, everything was smooth and smooth.
All lines will be restored to their original state.
Uchiha Tunan was finally done, put away his tools, picked up the garbage bag and left.
In a quiet alley, a group of stray dogs huddled together next to a trash can to keep warm.
They were hungry, cold, and whining.
According to the rules, as long as they can survive until early tomorrow morning, someone will take out the garbage and throw it away.
In this way, they can find some food to satisfy their hunger.
Suddenly, the noses of these stray dogs twitched slightly, as if they smelled something, and they stood up in unison.
At this moment, a figure appeared at the entrance of the alley.
The moment the figure appeared, the group of stray dogs fled towards the alley, hiding at the other end of the alley and watching the figure from a distance.
Uchiha Tunan glanced sideways at these poor stray dogs, and then looked at the trash can in the alley.
Throw the garbage bag in your hand gently and drop it accurately into the trash can.
The alluring aroma wafted into the noses of these stray dogs, and the scent overflowed from their mouths and dripped onto the ground.
In the end, the stray dogs couldn't resist the temptation and ran to the trash can and jumped in one by one.
The next moment, the sound of tearing and chewing echoed in the narrow alley.
When Uchiha Tunan saw this, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he whispered softly: "Happy New Year."
After saying that, he tightened his windbreaker and strode towards the Uchiha clan.
The next day.
Sunlight shone into the room through a corner of the curtains, as if a beam of light stood in the room. Shizune turned over on the bed.
Subconsciously blocking the light with his hand, he frowned and opened his hazy eyes.
My mind paused for two seconds, and then I felt that all the cells in my body were clamoring for pain.
"what happened?"
Shizune endured the pain and sat up, stretched out her hand to press her temples and shook her head, trying to shake the pain out of her head.
But it didn't help, it even made the pain more severe.
The memories of last night came to mind in bits and pieces.
"What a terrible nightmare."
Shizune looked at the ray of sunlight that shone into the room infatuatedly, and suddenly felt a sense of alienation in her heart.
He looked down at his sweat-stained clothes and murmured, "Is it because the nightmare lasted too long, causing the body's instinct to tense up for too long?"
Thinking that she still had to take care of Tsunade, Shizune planned to change into clean clothes before going to Konoha Hospital.
But when Shizune came to the closet and was about to open it, the man standing next to her in her dream with a strange smile suddenly appeared in her mind.
Immediately, I couldn't help but feel a chill running down my spine, my hands were trembling slightly, and I didn't dare to open the closet.
It already appeared in my mind that when the closet was opened, the man in the dream would be standing inside.
"Huh~"
Shizune let out a breath and shook her head to get rid of the random thoughts in her mind.
How could it be? It was just a nightmare, not real. Stop thinking about it.
After that, I comforted myself several times in my heart before regaining my courage.
Then open the closet.
I saw rows of clothes hanging in an orderly manner in the closet. It was not the boring scene I imagined.
Shizune breathed a sigh of relief, and her anxious heart was finally relieved.
So he laughed to himself and said: "It turns out that I am so timid without Tsunade-sama."
After a while, Shizune changed her clothes and was about to take away the sweat-smelling clothes.
But for some reason, he shifted his gaze to the bottom of the bed by accident.
