laboratory.
"One bottle...two bottles...three bottles..." Uchiha Ye counted the ration pills on the table, confirmed the quantity was correct, and then put them away.
As I left the lab, it was just past dawn, and pedestrians were slowly beginning to move about on the street.
Uchiha Ye decided to go home and take a shower before heading to the agreed-upon training ground, as there was a more advanced mission to carry out today.
The lab is relatively close to the house she bought, and she has been living here recently.
Back home, after a quick wash and feeding of his summoned beast, Uchiha Ye left the house without lingering.
As she descended the stairs, a question flashed through her mind: "How strange, it seems like she hasn't seen Kakashi for quite some time. Is she out on a mission?"
The thought only crossed her mind briefly before she quickly dismissed it. After all, it wasn't unusual for ninjas to go on missions that lasted anywhere from a day to several months.
"Furball, let's go. Take me to Training Ground Number Seven," Uchiha Ye called out.
"Okay, Ye." The fluffy ball flicked its tail and ran forward.
"I have to say, the summoning beast that Kakashi gave me is actually quite useful."
"Furball, this doesn't seem to be the way to the training grounds." Although she was acting strangely, the road was clearly wrong; this was obviously the Hyuga clan's territory.
The clothes she's wearing today have the Uchiha clan crest on them, which is really a bit ridiculous.
This situation was no challenge for her. Uchiha Ye simply put on a smile and greeted those who kept glancing at her.
"Sure enough, she wasn't embarrassed; it was everyone else who was."
As they passed a cake shop, a delicious aroma wafted into her nose. "It smells so good!" she exclaimed, and she and her dog stopped right in front of the shop.
Previously, it only ate a specific dog food called "Furball," but now its food has been spoiled by Uchiha Ye, and it has developed a strong liking for this kind of cake and dessert.
"Could this be the cake shop Neji mentioned?"
As Uchiha Ye entered the store, the aroma wafting through the air made her swallow hard.
She sweetly addressed a busy figure, "Beautiful lady, give me one of each flavor of cake and dessert."
The figure turned around upon hearing the voice, her face beaming with undisguised joy. Judging from her appearance, she was not young and should be around forty years old.
The cake shop owner came to the counter and frowned when she saw that the customer was an Uchiha clansman.
"Beautiful lady, has it not started selling yet?" Uchiha Ye asked again.
"But she called me 'beautiful sister,' and she's so pretty." The cake shop owner was overjoyed and no longer cared about whether she was from the Uchiha clan. He quickly packed up each flavor and handed it over.
"Oh, by the way, this box contains our new savory cake, it's free, take it and try it."
Uchiha Ye accepted the item with some surprise, "Okay, beautiful sister, I'll come back to give you feedback tomorrow."
After leaving the cake shop, she didn't rush to eat it, but planned to take it with Itachi, Anko, and the others to enjoy.
"Fur Ball, where are you taking me?!" Uchiha Ye's face was full of confusion. "Are you taking her to rescue someone?"
The fluffy ball stopped under a big tree. "We're here!"
"????"
Uchiha Ye was full of question marks. "There's no one here!" she said, walking around the tree in confusion.
Just as I was about to ask 'Fur Ball', I bumped into something. "Ah, my cake!"
Ignoring the pain in his forehead, Uchiha Ye felt sorry for the cake in his hand.
"Ye, what brings you here?" A lazy voice rang out above her head.
Just as Uchiha Ye was about to speak up to explain, Maoqiu interrupted, "Ye said she misses you and asked me to bring her here to find you."
"What?" Uchiha Ye looked at the fur ball in shock, as if accusing it of saying something outrageous. "Besides, which ear heard her thinking about Kakashi?"
Just as she was about to explain, the fur ball spoke up again, "Ye waits for you in front of your house every day. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I brought her here. It didn't affect your mission, did it, Kakashi?"
"Oh, by the way, Ye also brought something for you."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yoru completely lost her composure; she had actually been outmaneuvered by a mere ninja dog.
Kakashi was deeply moved by what he heard and pulled Uchiha Yoru into his arms.
"Kakashi-senpai, it's not what you think..."
Before she could finish speaking, her head was pressed firmly against Kakashi's chest, and she couldn't utter the rest of her words. "What a tragedy!" she lamented inwardly.
From now on, she will never summon the furball except to feed it.
About five minutes later, Kakashi finally let go.
Just as Uchiha Ye was about to speak to explain, the fur ball urged him on, "Ye, don't you still have a mission to carry out? Hurry up and give the things to Kakashi, let's go."
"Furry..." she shouted through gritted teeth.
Looking up and seeing Kakashi's expectant gaze, Uchiha Yoru, as if possessed, handed over the savory cake he was holding.
Kakashi frowned when he saw the cake; he didn't like sweets.
Seeing his confusion, Uchiha Ye kindly explained, "Kakashi-senpai, this is a savory cake, you can try it."
She took out a porcelain bottle from her ninja tool pouch at her waist. "These are soldier ration pills I developed. You can take one in advance if you encounter a strong enemy."
"Also, just now Mao..."
Just as Uchiha Ye was about to explain, Maoqiu interrupted him again, "Ye, your agreed time with your teammates is almost up, why aren't you leaving?"
After Maoqiu finished speaking, it grabbed Uchiha Ye's trouser leg and pulled it out.
She realized that the fluffy ball was doing it on purpose and wasn't letting her explain.
Even if she stayed to try and explain, she would probably still be interrupted.
"Never mind, I'll explain it to Kakashi when I get back tonight, and I'll also ask him what he thought of eating the savory cake."
"I'm so sorry to have bothered you, senior. I'll be going now."
After saying goodbye, she followed Maoqiu towards the training field.
After this incident, Kakashi, who had been feeling a bit down lately, instantly felt all of that gloom swept away.
"Sorry I'm late, something happened on the way."
However, what Uchiha Yoh said was not very convincing, and he was holding a large, brightly lit bag of cakes.
"Orochimaru-sensei, Anko, Itachi, how about we have breakfast first?" she suggested, a little embarrassed.
When Hongdou saw the cake in Ye's hand, she rushed over in one stride.
Uchiha Ye wisely handed over a piece.
"Ye, this cake tastes like it's from a cake shop in the Hyuga clan's territory. Why would they sell it to you?" Anko asked in surprise.
"Maybe it's because I'm universally loved and admired by all!" Uchiha Ye once again displayed her shamelessness.
This time, Hongdou didn't object. She glanced at her face and nodded seriously.
She stopped bantering with Anko and picked up the cake again, handing it over, "Orochimaru-sensei, Itachi, you should try some too!"
After they took it, Uchiha Ye gave one piece to the fur ball, and of course, he ate the last piece himself.
"We went too early, otherwise we could have bought more other flavors."
Uchiha Ye licked his lips with a hint of lingering satisfaction, letting out a silent sigh.
Itachi silently made a mental note of it, then took out the water he had with him and handed it to her. "Ye, have some water."
"Okay!" she replied, taking the water and drinking it.
"Oh dear, poor me and the teacher have no water to drink." Red Bean deliberately made a sound that instantly made Itachi's ears turn red.
"Cough cough..." Uchiha Ye, who was drinking water, choked.
Forgetting his embarrassment, Itachi ran his hand down her back and asked, "Ye, are you alright?"
"Oh my..." Hongdou drawled out again.
Uchiha Ye pressed his brow and immediately took out two bottles of water from the scroll and handed them over.
Red Bean took a sip, then looked at Uchiha Hatake and teased again, "Someone clearly brought their own water..."
Before Anko could finish speaking, Uchiha Ye snatched the water from her hand, saying, "Anko-nee, you don't seem thirsty at all, why are you talking so much?"
After she finished speaking, she turned and left, taking Itachi with her to prevent him from being teased by Anko again.
Red Bean wasn't about to let them off so easily; she had no sense of propriety whatsoever and followed them.
It's really shiny and bright.
Orochimaru watched them playfully bickering, a faint smile unconsciously appearing on his face.
