Chapter 17 Mom, listen to my explanation

During the war, the security in the Land of Fire was much better than in peacetime. After all, the bandits had long been wiped out by the newly graduated Genin, and they left in uneasiness.

A few days later, they arrived at the Konoha Ninja Village. The girl with the scorched hair was Ide Chinatsu. She looked at the tall and majestic gate and covered her mouth with her hands and exclaimed. She had never been out of the Frost Country since she was a child. She had only heard of the Konoha Village from the merchants who traveled all over the country. Although she had infinitely exaggerated the scale of the Konoha Ninja Village in her mind, her experience limited her imagination. The size of the Konoha Ninja Village was really very large.

In a broad sense, the scope of Konoha Village includes a rectangular forest with a circumference of about 150 kilometers. According to the old people in the village, it was the divine power of the first Hokage that created this forest. Yeshan just listened and he didn't quite believe it; in a narrow sense, the scale of Konoha Village is not small. The circular city wall planned in the early days failed to restrict the development of the village. Outside the city gate, many towns have been formed. Yeshan estimated that the population of Konoha Village at this time is no less than 50!

You know, strictly speaking, Konoha is a militarized village. Its peak strength has attracted a large number of people to come here. Everyone knows that it is good to be under a big tree. The dense population has spawned a variety of industries, and the degree of commercialization has increased year by year. From the outside, you can't tell that this is the strongest bandit nest in the ninja world. It is just like an ordinary big city.

Taking out the wartime application form, Ye Shan came to the entrance and exit office, knocked on the door, and waited for the low sound of someone coming in before he pushed the door open and walked in.

The office was not big, about 20 square meters. Two ninjas were sitting in front of the large desk. One of them looked up at Ye Shan, then lowered his head to write something on the paper, and asked, "What's going on?"

"What can you do here, you Muggle..." Ye Shan said softly, speechless, "Apply for outsiders to live in the village permanently."

"There are too many applicants now. Come back another day."

The smile on Ye Shan's face froze, and a flash of MMP flashed through his mind, but he still asked.

"Can you please make this a special case? I have to leave the village tomorrow."

The man who had been keeping his head down waved his hands impatiently, as if shooing away a fly, and said, "What do you mean by special treatment for special matters? Everything must be done according to the rules. If everyone wants to cut in line, won't it be a mess?"

WDNMD......

Ye Shan could no longer control his anger. He slammed the application form on the table, snatched the pen from the other party, signed his name in the guarantor column, and turned away.

The ninja, who was a little confused by Ye Shan's smooth operation, was about to call for help, but the silent man on the side quickly kicked him, stood up, kept saying sorry, and enthusiastically escorted Ye Shan out of the office.

After Ye Shan and his companions walked away, the ninja who was kicked rubbed his leg and complained, "It's just a Chunin, why did you kick me, Naoto Nanyun? It hurts."

Naoto Nanyun scolded: "It's better to be in pain than to be killed in the battlefield without knowing what's going on."

"How can a single Chunin like him have such great power?" The man who was kicked said in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

"Humph, I've told you so many times, the most important thing in our line of work is to have good judgment. That Chunin is nothing, but if you offend Tsuchitaka Ogata, you will not have a good ending!"

"Tsuchitaka Ogata? The one who died in battle a while ago? It's okay to offend him."

Nanyun Naoto looked at the stupid teammate in front of him with a painful expression, and said in a very ironic way: "Tsuchitaka Ogata is dead, but his friends are still alive, idiots!"

"......"

"By the way, those people just now failed the routine inspection, right?"

Naoto Nanyun was completely speechless and didn't want to talk to him anymore, as he felt his intelligence would be insulted. He was not blind, so he naturally knew that there was no routine inspection. But even if there were problems with the people who were put in, the higher-ups would find the people from the security team when they investigated. Do they really think they are so important? Don't think that anyone can take the blame. Taking the blame is a technical job that requires professional talents, not two half-baked people who only know basic ninjutsu.

In a bad mood, Ye Shan led a few people behind him and walked quickly towards Tsuchitaka Okata's house, ignoring the shouting of Ide Chinatsu and wishing he had a few more legs to walk faster.

As a powerful jonin in Konoha Village, Tsuchitaka Ogata naturally enjoys good housing resources. He owns a dual-purpose three-story building in a commercial street where every inch of land is valuable, which shows his wealth. In the ninja tool shop on the first floor, Ye Shan saw Tsuchitaka Ogata's original wife for the first time, a wealthy housewife. In terms of appearance alone, the wife and the mistress are evenly matched, but you can't just look at the face when marrying a wife. In other aspects, the mistress is crushed.

Ye Shan, who originally thought that the original wife would beat up the mistress, was doomed to be disappointed. Although the original wife's face was unchanged, she didn't say anything. I think there are other people behind the scenes who are trying to persuade her. You are really good, Toulong Ogata. When it comes to handling funeral affairs, I, Baiyun Ye Shan, would like to call you the best!

The queen politely invited everyone to the living room for a rest. After confirming that the simply dressed child was the son of Tsuchitaka Okata, she and the mistress hugged each other and cried bitterly, which made Ye Shan very embarrassed.

Not long after, the queen, who had arranged food and lodging for Xiao San and the other two, brought a cup of tea to Ye Shan and Ide Chinatsu. After sitting down, she thanked him, "Thank you, ninja, for bringing the orphan of Ogata from the distant Frost Country. I hope you can accept this little gift." As she spoke, she placed a bulging envelope in front of Ye Shan.

Ye Shan couldn't help but look up to this widowed first wife. He had visited Ogata's home several times before, but she was always indifferent to him and didn't even know his name. It was not easy for her to adjust her mentality in time after Ogata's death and put down her status to please her former subordinate.

But Qian Yeshan would not take it. People should be content and grateful. The transaction between him and Tulong Xufang had already benefited him a lot. It would be inappropriate for him to take other people's money. Besides, he also needed the other party's help.

After gently pushing the envelope back, Ye Shan said, "It's just my job. Lord Ogata has already paid the reward, so there's no need for you, madam." He paused, pointed at Ide Chinatsu and continued, "This is an old friend I brought back from the Frost Country. I want him to stay here for a while. Is that convenient?"

Without waiting for the original wife to speak, the impatient Qianxia stood up and asked, "Didn't you say you would take me home? You liar!"

After saying that, he ran out quickly, determined not to stay here.

The original wife was in a sensitive period. After hearing what Chinatsu said, the look she gave Ye Shan instantly changed. Bah! Scumbag, those who look honest are all scumbags.

Under the gaze of his ex-wife, Ye Shan's face slowly turned red. He opened his mouth to explain something, but he didn't know where to start because he did promise to let Chinatsu live in his house temporarily and move out after the formalities were completed.

After saying "Goodbye," Ye Shan fled.

Standing on the busy street, Ye Shan was still feeling anxious. He found Ide Chinatsu who was catching goldfish as if nothing had happened, and was about to pull her away from the place that made him a scumbag, but then a white and tender hand reached out to him.

"What for?" Ye Shan was confused.

"Pay." Chinatsu pointed at the boss who had already stood up.

"..."

Although Ye Shan was extremely unhappy, he still paid the money. Konoha was a civilized village in the new era, and anyone who got something for free would be "friendly" invited to drink tea. It didn't matter whether there was money or not, the main thing was that the tea was not good.

.........

Konoha Hospital's inpatient department is in a wartime, and beds are in short supply. Ye Shan used a lot of connections to get his mother admitted. Ye Shan, who had given many instructions to Chinatsu along the way, carefully arranged his clothes outside the ward, and opened the door with a smile on his face. The voices of the people who were chatting in the room paused, and they all looked at Ye Shan.

"Hey, Nami, your son is here to see you. The boy is getting more and more energetic."

"Isn't it? He has grown up now. There is a girl from my third aunt's family who works in the hospital. Can you contact her later, Ye Shan?"

"Haha, if you ask me, my girl is the best. She is hardworking and takes care of the family. Ye Shan, don't listen to her. Look at mine first."

Facing the pimps of several people, Ye Shan smiled skillfully, greeted them one by one, came to his mother's bed, and shouted in a deep voice: "Mother, I'm back."

Yeshan's mother, Nami, sat up and looked her son up and down. After making sure that he was not injured, she held his hand and asked him to sit on the bed.

At this moment, a little head poked in from the door, and the black and white eyes turned a few times smartly, and said crisply: "Hello, Auntie, I am Ide Chinatsu who lives in your house. I followed Ye Shan to see you."

The ward fell into silence. Ye Shan closed his eyes in pain, hating himself in his heart for not being able to resist the temptation of ninjutsu.

A few blushes flashed across Ye's mother's pale face, and her eyes burst into a fascinating brilliance. After shaking off Ye Shan's hand with disgust, she gently patted the bed and said, "Girl, come and sit here. Ye Shan, what are you doing standing there? Go and peel an apple for someone, pick a big one!"

Ide Chinatsu walked in timidly from outside. When they saw the full view of the ward, their eyes lit up and they secretly said, "What a pretty girl!"

Ye's mother was about to get out of bed, and Qianxia hurried to the bed, holding Ye's mother's arm, and said, "Auntie, please lie down. There's no need to do this. Ye Shan and I are very familiar with each other."

Mother Ye took advantage of the situation and held Qianxia's hand, carefully examining it, nodding in her heart. She was extremely satisfied. She glanced at Ye Shan who was standing there like a log, and said unhappily: "Ye Shan, where is the apple I asked you to peel? Even I can't make you do anything, huh?"

Ye Shan shuddered, took out an apple helplessly and was about to peel it.

"No, no, Auntie, I don't eat apples. Don't bother Ye Shan."

"It's okay. I'm free anyway. Let's have an apple."

"I like to eat oranges."

"Ye Shan, peel another orange. No, peel five. I'll treat everyone to oranges."

Ye Shan: "......."

Mom, did you misunderstand something? Mom, please listen to my explanation!!!
