Chapter 107: When mentioning strange events, people think of the Uzumaki clan

"Eh? Ling is acting alone again?"

"This meow is just a non-combat summoning beast. Hong, if you want to find someone, you should contract a combat summoning beast meow."

Uchiha Hong raised his hand and picked up the sealed scroll that Xuewan brought back, and took out the things inside one by one, with a bitter look on his face, "The payment I need to advance this time is quite a lot..."

"Most of them are souvenirs that Ling's brother wants to bring back, meow," Xuewan licked his paw, "and next time if you only have an approximate location like this, meow will go on strike.

Meow, I repeat, meow is not a combat ninja cat. Don't apply your ninja's theory that you can do everything to me. Do you know how much effort and favors I spent to find the way? It's not easy to be a ninja cat, okay? As a human being, don't cause trouble for cats, meow..."

Uchiha Hiro had no temper at all towards the cursing and slightly irritable little kitten in front of him. He just coaxed it softly until Yukimaru released the summoning. Then he looked with a dark face at Uchiha Akihiko who was almost getting a stitch in the side from trying to hold back his laughter.

Uchiha Hong picked up the unopened text message from a pile of items with a dark face, raised his hand and threw it over, "Laugh if you want to, who are you trying to annoy by acting like this?"

“Hahahaha——” Uchiha Akihiko raised his hand to catch it and finally laughed out loud, while he couldn’t help rubbing his stomach with one hand, “Sorry, sorry, I really rarely see you get embarrassed, hahaha——”

"Hmph..." Uchiha Hiro pouted, "What's next? The time for [confinement] is almost up, are you going to look for Ling on the way?"

“Well… Although I really want to go to the Land of Lightning to find those Kaguyas, the country is going through a period of upheaval there, and going there at this time could easily lead to unnecessary national disputes—I don’t want to deal with those nobles.

Besides, this discovery is quite important, so it's better to tell Ling as soon as possible just in case," Uchiha Akihiko stood up, "I'll go to Ling's house again to see if the other ninja crow has returned."

"Take the things that troublesome kid checked in with you. I will study the combination of Sharingan and perception ninjutsu while I still have [confinement] time." Uchiha Hiro pointed at the wrapped souvenirs on the table, then took down the scroll from the main bookshelf, with a fierce look in his eyes, "How dare he plot against Uchiha... that ignorant thing."

"By the way, is there really an outsider's presence at the stone tablet?" Uchiha Akihiko sorted out the things on the table one by one and picked them up in his hands. "Ling, with such a high perception, didn't notice it."

"So didn't I say that?" Uchiha Hong tapped his temple, "The key is the Sharingan - Sharingan, I can't sense anything when I don't use the Sharingan.

This is really strange. Even a troublesome bloodline limit like the Transparent Release will leave traces in the perception. How did that guy deceive the perception? It is hard to understand. "

"I don't really understand you, the perception ninjas." Uchiha Akihiko threw the things over his shoulder, looking a little helpless, "But for things related to gods and ghosts - just look for the Uzumaki clan. They are at least involved in 50% of the weird things in the ninja world."

"Ah, that's true. Then how about we catch Uzumaki together for research?" Uchiha Hiro raised his head. "Although I am also good at interrogation by illusion, you are better at long-term mental control, right?"

"Well, that's true," Uchiha Akihiko said with disdain, "but in that case, not only do we need to bypass the seal, we also need to protect the opponent's brain, and we also need to divide a portion of our pupil power... Not to mention the trouble, the most important thing is that it will affect our strength."

Uchiha Hiro seemed to have remembered something disgusting when he heard this. He lowered his head and waved his hands impatiently, "Alright, alright, I'll tell you more when you come back. Go away now. I feel sick just looking at you."

"...Have you forgotten that we have worked together for a long time, and this is my home?" Uchiha Akihiko clicked his tongue, "Isn't it inappropriate for you to say this?"

"Let's not talk about the fact that I hate you. It won't stop me from working with you, and my mood won't change just because we change places..."

Uchiha Hong looked up in surprise, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "Could it be that opening your eyes caused a drastic change in your personality and made you fall in love with me, and because of the brief peace between the two of us in front of Ling, you had an illusion that you wanted to get along with me like a brother in the future?"

Uchiha Akihiko subconsciously imagined the scene, and felt a chill, and even glared at his Sharingan, "Why can you say such disgusting words?"

"If you know it's disgusting, please get out of my sight, okay?" Uchiha Hiro looked away in disgust and vomited, "I'm about to vomit."

……

After putting away the purchased food properly, Ling said goodbye to the gentle and enthusiastic couple, asked for directions, and then carried the kitten back to the direction of Leiming Gorge.

Because it was already afternoon and strange things had been happening frequently in Leiming Gorge recently, there were only this man and this cat on the road at this moment, which gave off a rare sense of leisure and peace.

"Well, there should be no one around here..." Ling stopped and lowered his head to face the little cat he had been holding in his hands all the way, "How about we have a frank talk?"

However, the kitten just made a lazy "purring" sound, and even turned over its belly to be polite.

Ling chuckled a few times, found a relatively flat rock to sit on, and began to rub the kitten's belly. The soothing feeling brought by his fingertips stroking the fine fur even made Ling sigh unconsciously in his heart, "Okay, let me start with me... First of all, I am a perception ninja."

The moment the words fell, the snoring sound that was full of enjoyment finally stopped, and Ling could feel the little guy in his hands tense up in an instant.

But Ling just chuckled and took his hand back, continuing, "Secondly, maybe it's because of your own peculiarity, or it may be because of the seal of the Uzumaki clan on you. In my perception, you... well, are a little special, which makes it difficult for me not to care."

"Hmph~ Boy, you are very courageous."

"Your voice is gentler than I thought." Ling chuckled a few times, placed the cane sword across his legs, and placed his hands on his left and right knees. "Like I said, Miss Nekomata, I intend to have a frank talk with you."
