Chapter 45: Ruri's Parents and Returning to Everyday Research

"There will be no missions for a while, you can move freely, but it's best not to relax too much and maintain your combat readiness."

"Yes!"

After the three of Shiraishi had lunch, Shuo Mao found the three of them, gave a little advice, and went back separately.

Shiraishi naturally returned to the mansion in the Uchiha clan with Ruri.

Since he hadn't returned to the village for a few months, Shiraishi felt like a lot had changed as he walked along the road, but nothing had changed.

"How are you going to spend the rest of your days, Ruri?"

The rest time will not be too short, but it will not be too long, and it is estimated that in about half a month, the next difficult task will be ushered in.

"Cultivation."

Liuli replied succinctly.

"It's really like your style, I have a little new ideas in my head these days, and after these months of tasks, I feel that I can make some practical props to assist in the battle."

"How?"

Ruri seemed to be very interested in this.

"Although the smoke bomb is good, it is easy to be restrained by the ninjutsu of the Wind Escape type, and it will not last very long, so it can be used for surprise attacks...... But what if you add some poison gas to the smoke bomb? At that time, even if you use the wind to blow away the smoke, the enemy has already absorbed a lot of poisonous gas, and its strength will be greatly reduced. ”

Shiraishi spoke his mind and thought it was feasible.

"Ninjas are generally more or less resistant to toxicity, especially sand ninjas, if the toxicity is not strong enough, it will not have much effect on ninjas."

"No matter how good the anti-toxicity is, there is a limit. However, if you want to fight with poison gas, you also need to make an antidote in advance, so that others can take it in advance to avoid being accidentally injured. ”

"It is suitable for small-scale operations, and large-scale combat effects can be counterproductive."

Regarding Liuli's point-to-point opinion, Shiraishi also nodded in agreement.

In large-scale battles, the amount of antidote produced is a problem, and the poison gas is used with smoke bombs, even if the antidote is used to survive the poison gas, the view will be blocked by the smoke for a short time.

However, this tactic Shiraishi didn't want to promote it in the first place, so he just wanted to use it within the Shuomao team.

After such a long time, Shiraishi has long understood that their team is mainly carrying out some dangerous and important confidential missions, and it is very necessary to develop special tactics suitable for Shuo Mao's team.

When I returned to the mansion I had been away from for a long time, I suddenly saw a man and a woman standing at the door of the fallen leaves, waving to this side.

No, to be precise, they were waving at Ruri, looking very happy and excited.

"Acquaintance?"

Shiraishi hadn't seen this man and woman in the Uchiha clan in the past two or three years, and turned his head to look at Ruri.

"My parents."

Ruri replied calmly.

“!?”

Shiraishi was a little less calm.

It was the first time he had seen Liuli's parents, and he had always heard from Liuli that it was the first time he had met in person.

But speaking of which, since Shiraishi temporarily settled in Ruri's house, he hasn't seen Ruri's parents come home.

Even during the New Year, they only send some photos and letters to each other, and Liuli's birthday and New Year's gifts every year are also very simple, a passbook.

The passbook starts with a 1 and is followed by a lot of zeros.

This is the birthday and New Year's gift that Liuli receives every year, simple and boring.

"It's been a long time, Xiao Liuli, do you miss your parents?"

The woman was dressed in a gorgeous and noble dress, and her hair was neatly coiled up, with many ornaments on it.

It looks a little too gaudy and showy, but it doesn't give people a cheesy temperament.

How to say it, it seems that he was born with such a temperament.

As soon as she came up, she hugged Liuli into her arms, rubbing her face hard, making Liuli's little face wrinkled, and Shiraishi was afraid that Liuli would spit out a fireball at this time and extinguish her mother's ashes.

"It's noisy, I've said it many times, don't get saliva in my face."

Ruri's face tightened, as if she was seriously teaching her mother.

"Don't say that, Ruri, Mom hasn't seen you for a long time, just like when I was a child, let Mom love the cute ......"

Rumble!

Shiraishi holds his forehead in the back.

I knew it was going to happen.

A wall of the mansion next to it was smashed through by a fireball, and black smoke was emitting.

Liuli's mother's face was covered with cold sweat at the moment, her neck was turning mechanically, as if it was rusty, and the smile on her face became extremely stiff.

"Really, Xiao Liuli is not as well-behaved as she was when she was a child, obviously she used to ......"

"Want to be thrown out by me? Or burned? Being flooded can also be considered. ”

Liuli's eyebrows jumped, as if her patience was at the limit.

The woman in the gorgeous dress sighed, and had to give up the idea of continuing to ravage Ruri in her arms.

Such a cute daughter can't be like this, I knew that I had a boy to come out to play before.

The daughter is not well-behaved at all.

"Honey, how about we have another one? Xiao Liuli has grown up, and she doesn't want her parents anymore. ”

"It's obvious that you're not good, but you also know that Ruri has grown up."

The man, who had been watching the harmonious scene of mother and daughter from the side, seemed to feel distressed and scratched his head.

My daughter has a very strong personality since she was a child, and she is the only one in the family, and as a father, he has long been accustomed to it.

"Ah, you're the little friend of Baishi that Xiao Liuli often mentions in her letters, right?"

The gorgeous woman finally notices Shiraishi.

"Ah, yes, yes, please advise."

When he was finally noticed, Shiraishi hurriedly came up and bowed politely to the question mark.

"Don't be nervous, it's rare that Xiao Liuli can find a good playmate, when I was a child, Xiao Liuli often chased a large group of boys by herself."

Hearing the gorgeous woman say this, Shiraishi had already imagined such a picture in his mind.

If it's Liuli, maybe it's really possible.

"By the way, when are you two going to get married? When the time comes, I have to give birth to boys, because I suddenly think boys are a little more fun than girls. ”

The gorgeous woman asked with a smile.

“……”

The jump in the topic was a bit big, causing Shiraishi's brain to crash directly and become a piece of mush.

A tic-tac-toe popped up on Liuli's forehead and began to stamp.

Rumble!

Ruri's mother is called Miyoko Uchiha, she is twenty-eight years old this year, she is in her prime, she likes luxury, and she wears beautiful and luxurious clothes, like a princess.

And Ruri's father is called Uchiha Sosuke, thirty-six years old, an uncle with a mature face, dressed in a decent formal suit, looking much more serious than his wife Miyoko, and he looks more responsible.

But I think that Ruri is twelve years old this year, and her mother Miyoko is only twenty-eight years old, in other words, when Miyoko was pregnant with Ruri...... Only fifteen years old, underage.

Shiraishi looked at Uchiha Sosuke's honest face, and he didn't feel that Sosuke was honest at all.

Because the husband and wife don't have the talent to be ninjas, they still only have the strength of the middle ninja...... According to Liuli's standards, twenty or thirty years old is still a ninja strength, and he may really not have the talent to be a ninja.

Over the years, the couple has been working hard outside, and with some of the connections accumulated by the Uchiha clan, in the words of the two of them, business things are barely okay.

In the past few years, the husband and wife have not come back to Konoha to have a look, but because they are very busy with their careers outside, they just met with Ruri at the entrance of Konoha Village, and then left in a hurry.

This also led to the reason why Shiraishi did not see the two of them in Ruri's house.

Ruri and her parents get together, Shiraishi has no past, and he has gone to join in the fun, which will only add to the embarrassment.

Shiraishi returned to the underground laboratory, because he had to go out on a mission, so a lot of experimental equipment had been transferred in advance, but some of the less important ones remained.

There is a lot of dust in the basement and instruments, and Shiraishi needs to clean it well.

When I finished cleaning, there was the sound of footsteps on the stairs leading to the top, and Ruri came down the steps.

"Why, did you end the communication between relatives so soon? Don't be in such a hurry. ”

"You can catch up anytime."

"It seems that Uncle and they will stay in the village for a long time this time, is it because of the war outside?"

Shiraishi asked, thinking of something.

"They don't trade around the Fire Nation, but in the far west of the continent, so the war here won't have any impact on their business."

"It's not your real name, is it?"

"Well, it's all pseudonyms. They know some ninjutsu, but the information is not included in Konoha, and some elders in the clan operate in the back, so the two of them can do business outside with peace of mind. Over the years, they have also hired many well-known bounty hunters, both samurai and ninjas, to keep them safe. ”

No matter how it is, it is a wealthy family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the Uchiha's heritage and connections are not trivial.

For example, the ninja equipment of the Uchiha clan never goes to the land of iron or purchases it in the village, but purchases it from the ninja cat clan, a psychic beast.

Many times, the ninja cat clan will also act as the eyeliner of the Uchiha ninja and gather intelligence.

That's the Uchiha's connections.

And there are probably quite a few allies like the ninja cat clan, and even Konoha has an extremely difficult time obtaining this part of the information.

In the same way, the same is true of the Hyuga clan of the bloodstained ninja clan, how many connections there are in secret, only the highest rulers of the clan know all of them.

The real wealthy family is not only about strength and inheritance, but also about connections.

After that, Liuli used psychic techniques to channel some ninja cats out, and these ninja cats carried some scrolls, and there were many large research equipment sealed in the scrolls, which only needed to be unsealed and reconnected to the line.

Shiraishi, Ruri, and the ninja cats began to work together, placing the research equipment in their original positions and connecting the wiring as before.

After doing it, it was already two hours later, and Liuli let these ninja cat coolies go back, before leaving, these ninja cats showed humanized resentful eyes, until Ruri said that next time she would prepare good cat food for them to go back in a better mood.

Shiraishi looked at the huge research room at this time, and really wanted to find an assistant to come over.

But don't think about this kind of thing for the time being, many secrets here can't be made public, and can only be done secretly.

Fortunately, this is the Uchiha's clan land, and the Hokage's direct shadow department does not have the right to search here, after all, the power of the Uchiha garrison cannot be underestimated.

There are a lot of upper ninjas and special ones in it.,As long as the people in the clan enter the ninja unit.,The strength of adulthood is basically the middle ninja and above.,This is a very terrifying ratio.。

Especially after awakening the Sharingan, the strength of the Uchiha ninja will skyrocket, and it cannot be taken lightly.

And the next research target, Shiraishi has already found.

A combination of highly toxic smoke bombs, as well as matching antidotes.

Of course, the study of natural energy must also continue, and although the days in Konoha will not be too long this time, this precious time cannot be wasted at will.

Just as Liuli was about to go out, leaving Baishi here alone, Baishi suddenly said, "By the way, Liuli, can I ask you for some more things?" ”

"Tell me, do you need to get a new one?"

"Ah, no, these are enough to use for a long time."

"What's that?"

"Human experiments."

Shiraishi simply uttered these four words.

Liuli's pupils shrank slightly, and then he glanced at Bai Shi seriously, and Bai Shi also looked at her calmly.

"Do you know what that means?"

"Human experimentation isn't entirely evil."

As far as Shiraishi knows, many forbidden techniques are products developed based on human experiments.

The most famous of these is none other than Konoha's predecessor, Hokage Senjuma.

It can be said that the characteristic ninjutsu that many ninjas in Konoha learn today is the first source of this second-generation Hokage.

Liuli nodded thoughtfully and said, "I'll send you what you want tomorrow." ”
