Rule 1: Assassination missions must leave no body behind, and the perpetrators must know how to eliminate any trace of the corpse.
Rule 2: When performing tasks under normal circumstances, masks must be worn and personnel must be referred to by code names.
Rule 3: All orders have the highest priority, according to the Hokage.
"Gu Mu, what is your mask?"
After changing her clothes, Uchiha Shizuru, wearing a fox mask with red stripes, came to his side.
"Pfft~"
"Just as you expected, you bad dog."
"You little brat, do you want to be bullied?"
Gu Mu looked up and saw Uchiha Shizuka in a black bodysuit beside him, his eyes lighting up slightly.
Uchiha Shizuru had her hair tied in a high ponytail, and a teasing smile graced her cool face, making her look like a cunning fox. In particular, her figure, which was like a budding flower, was graceful and already taking shape, like a flower about to bloom.
"Ah."
Gu Mu rested his chin on his hand and nodded with considerable satisfaction.
"What? What's the problem?"
Uchiha Shizumizu's eyes held a hint of doubt.
"It's nothing. Would you like me to prepare a glass of milk for you every morning from now on?"
The teasing words made Uchiha Shizumi react instantly. Following Koki's gaze, she immediately clutched her chest in a panic: "You lecherous scoundrel, you're such a pervert!"
"A gentleman is attracted to beauty but not to licentiousness; his emotions arise from his feelings but are restrained by reason."
"You rascal, you've even put your knowledge into practice."
Uchiha Shizumi gazed at Koki's face, a hint of reminiscence on her lips.
If she remembered correctly, she had personally explained this sentence to Gu Mu when she was learning classical Chinese in her previous life.
The meaning is that a gentleman appreciates women but is not licentious; his admiration for women stems from genuine affection, but he uses propriety to restrain his behavior (ensuring it does not cross the line).
"Of course, what can I do? I'm sitting next to a top student."
Gu Mu remained silent for a moment, and only spoke up after confirming that no one was around.
Having a top student as his deskmate made him feel a little embarrassed to slack off during high school.
"What, you're still not satisfied? Are you still thinking about that junior high school girl who confessed to you when you graduated from high school in your past life?"
"That junior schoolgirl is so sweet and fragrant, and she always calls you 'little brother' so cute, she'll make you lose your soul."
Uchiha Shizumizu muttered to herself, like an annoyed cat, and as she spoke, her face darkened.
"Ahem... Stop, stop. No junior schoolgirls are any prettier than my little wife."
"Humph~"
Upon hearing the word "wife," Uchiha Shizumi's face immediately showed a hint of panic.
"A man's words are deceitful; you'd better cook for yourself today."
After Uchiha Shizumi finished speaking, she headed towards the room. However, in her final moments, a faint smile appeared on her lips, as uncontrollable as a lake touched by a spring breeze.
"No, don't you know what I can cook?"
The old tree was on the verge of tears; besides fried rice, the only other option was the ever-reliable instant noodles.
Chapter 36 Arrogant, you want to eat me, right?
In the kitchen.
The two began cooking separately: one side prepared delicious and colorful Chinese stir-fries, while the other side made plain boiled noodles.
"Gudong~"
Gu Mu looked at the familiar braised pork in the pot and swallowed hard, a rare occurrence for him.
If Jing Shui hadn't come into this world, Gu Mu might have thought that he would never have tasted delicious braised pork in his entire life.
"Humph~"
Seemingly sensing the strangeness in the ancient tree, Uchiha Shizumi's lips curled up slightly, letting out a haughty hum, as clear and melodious as a nightingale's song. The smile on her lips never faded.
After being bullied for so long, I finally won against him this time.
[Uchiha Shizuru is happy...harvesting 200 emotion points]
Looking at the system's prompt, Gu Mu felt helpless. This girl's temperament was something he could easily handle.
See, he can easily make his girlfriend happy with just a little expression.
"Here you go, I don't like eating meat."
At the dining table, Uchiha Shizuru pushed the braised pork he had cooked in front of Koki.
Reddish, glistening, and trembling, it looks incredibly appetizing.
"Hmph, it's not because I'm soft-hearted, it's just because the braised pork I made this time didn't taste good, that's right, it didn't taste good."
Uchiha Shizumizu snorted softly, tilting her head to the side, looking like a proud little kitten, which was exceptionally cute.
"Yeah, I like this kind of food. The food here is too bland."
Gu Mu picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. The first taste was sweet and savory, with a meaty aroma reminiscent of barbecue. The meat was tender and melted in his mouth—truly wonderful.
"I knew it, my wife is the best."
"Cough cough cough...."
Uchiha Shizumizu, who was drinking water, choked when Koki suddenly called out to him.
"Nonsense... You're always talking nonsense. When did I become your wife?"
Uchiha Shizumi's eyes were filled with panic. In her previous life, she had already been looking forward to the days after their marriage.
Unfortunately, they were taken away in a large truck right after their engagement.
Can regrets from a past life be made up for in this one?
Uchiha Shizumi didn't know that she just hoped she could grow up quickly so that she could perhaps complete the things she hadn't been able to do in her previous life.
"How is it? How does it taste? It's a pity there aren't many seasonings here."
Uchiha Shizuru rested her chin on her hands, her eyes filled with a hint of satisfied anticipation.
"Then the taste has to be on point! My little wife's cooking skills are just amazing. As the saying goes, this taste should only exist in heaven, and it's rare to see it on earth. If we open a restaurant in the future, it will definitely be a huge success."
"You're just being cheeky. It's not that exaggerated."
"How could that be? I'm a good person, um... I never lie."
Gu Mu ate them one after another; at his age, he was still growing, so naturally he couldn't resist this kind of food.
"Here you go. I know you don't like greasy food. You little glutton, you're probably drooling in secret."
Koki pushed the remaining lean meat in front of Uchiha Shizuru with a comical smile on his face.
"Nonsense, I didn't drool."
Uchiha Shizusui's eyes widened in panic. Damn Koki, don't I have any dignity?
"I'll wash the dishes later, you can leave them in the kitchen. I'm going upstairs to take a shower first."
As Gu Mu spoke, he walked upstairs.
Watching Koukina's departing figure, Uchiha Shizumi opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
She knew that Gu Mu was probably busy with his own affairs again.
Just as Uchiha Shizuru had thought, Koki changed into a black trench coat and night clothes as soon as he entered his room.
With a single, instantaneous Flying Thunder God technique, he vanished from the spot.
They reappeared inside the Shimura clan's territory.
Although Furuki knew that Shimura Tano would take advantage of the Shimura clan's elder being seriously injured to seize power.
However, you still need to be sure about everything yourself.
"Ok?"
Shimura Yamashita seemed to sense the movement behind him. He turned around and saw the black-robed figure standing on the rooftop.
I immediately tensed up.
"Don't worry, it's me."
The ancient tree leaped and came to the foot of Shimura Mountain.
The familiar voice brought a sense of relief to Shimura Yamashita.
"Sir, is there something you need?"
After looking around at the foot of Shimura Mountain to make sure no one was around, he cautiously asked.
"Take me to see the fields."
