Chapter 42 In Konoha

Under the setting sun, the two doors that took up three-quarters of the height of the gate wall were still there. Looking at the Konoha logo between the two characters for "Ninja" on the gate.

I couldn't help but sigh that unlike the last time he returned to the village after a mission, Okamoto Dousuke looked very clean and tidy this time.

Namikaze Minato was in front, Okamoto Dousuke and Kakashi were behind, and Obito and Nohara Rin were at the end. The five of them walked towards the door together.

"Minato jonin, are you back from your mission?"

"Minato jonin..."

Seeing Minato Namikaze leading the way, the two ninjas at the door stopped their inspection work and greeted him.

Minato smiled and nodded in reply.

Walk into the village, at the stone bench at the entrance of the village.

Namikaze Minato stopped, turned around and looked at Okamoto Dousuke and others.

"This mission has been successfully completed. I will notify you to collect the mission commission in a few days. And I hope you can keep this mission confidential."

"Yes, teacher." X3

"Yes, Minato-san."

"Then let's disband for now. Doujie, if you have any questions about training, you can come to my house to find me anytime."

"If I don't know how, there is a master of sealing in my family!"

Hearing what Namikaze Minato said, Okamoto Dousuke was slightly moved. "Thank you, Minato-san."

"Teacher, you're giving him special treatment? You're being partial, aren't you, Kakashi and Rin?" Obito shouted in a jealous tone after hearing what Minato said. He even winked at Kakashi and Rin.

Lin smiled but didn't say anything.

Kakashi still had a cool expression on his face, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and ignored Obito.

"You guy, you can come to the teacher's house anytime, okay?" Namikaze Minato touched Obito's head and said with a smile.

"Alright, Team Minato, disband for now. Dousuke, Jiraiya-sensei said you are now a free status, and if there is a mission, Tsunade-senpai will let you know."

"I understand, Minato-san."

After saying goodbye to each other, the five people left in different directions.

Okamoto Dousuke walked quickly towards his home.

Looking at the low bungalow not far away, Okamoto Dousuke couldn't help but quicken his pace.

He took out the key from his tool bag and opened the door with a creak.

The dim interior shows that the lighting inside the house is not good.

With the remaining light of dusk, Dousuke Okamoto felt for the switch on the wall.

Pull down the switch and change the dim light of the past.

The bright white light illuminates the items in the house, making them spotless.

"Wow, when did you change the light in my room? And this furniture?" He walked slowly to the brand new table in the living room and took out the clothes from his backpack one by one.

While packing my clothes, I looked around my house with a fresh eye.

Completely different from the last time he came back from a mission, this time the furniture in the house appeared spotless, and it was obvious that someone regularly helped him clean it.

Take the packed clothes, put them into the washing machine, press the switch, and the washing machine will start filling with water automatically.

Walking into the bedroom, Okamoto Dousuke found a letter next to his bedding.

He walked over, bent down, and picked up the envelope. It said, "From Doujie."

"Is Sister Lihui going on a mission?"

After reading the letter, Okamoto Dousuke realized that Hinata Ritsu had gone out on a mission the day before yesterday.

Sister Hinata Tachie often helps me clean the house, no wonder it’s so clean.

In the letter, Hinata Ritsu also mentioned that she helped him replace the new fluorescent lamps when he was away, and that the new furniture was also replaced by Hinata Ritsu, and the old furniture in the house was put in the basement by her.

Okamoto Dousuke put down the envelope and walked to the refrigerator in the kitchen.

When you open the refrigerator door, what comes into view is a layer full of pickles packed in exquisite glass jars.

Each can has a label on it, "Dozen, this is very spicy!" "Dozen, this promotes absorption!" "Dozen, you have to wait until I come back to eat this can together!" "Dozen, the longer this can is stored, the better it tastes."

Reaching out and touching the pickles, Okamoto Dousuke's eyes became slightly moist.

So this is the feeling of being cared for and remembered.

After closing the refrigerator door and calming down a little, Okamoto Dousuke lay down on the tatami.

There is a warm smell of sunshine when lying on the quilt. There is also a light fragrance that makes people feel particularly energetic.

"Gurgle, gurgle..."

Okamoto Dousuke wanted to just lie quietly on the tatami and enjoy the quiet moment, but his stomach disagreed.

"Hey, let's take care of dinner first."

There was no food in the refrigerator except for the pickles made by Hinata Tachie. The instant noodles and other fast food products he had stored before were gone, probably because they were disposed of by Hinata Tachie.

Taking the money, Okamoto Dousuke walked out of the room.

A person was walking on the street, walking aimlessly.

"Hey, isn't this Dousuke?"

Hearing someone greeting him, Okamoto Dousuke looked up and saw that he had inadvertently walked to the door of Ichiraku Ramen Shop, and the person who greeted him was Ichiraku Big Brother.

"Well, I was on a mission recently and just came back today."

"I was wondering why I haven't seen you here for a while. Would you like a bowl? I've recently developed a new type of ramen with a new sauce, but it hasn't been released yet. You're the first one, would you like to try it?"

Ichiraku Ramen used to be the only way for Dosuke Okamoto to go back home and to the hospital, so he often went back to Ichiraku Ramen to have a bowl of ramen for dinner.

"I'm so lucky. Brother Ichiraku gave me a big portion."

"Okay." After saying that, Yile skillfully began to stretch the noodles, and then the soup. All in one go.

Soon, a large portion of steaming ramen was placed in front of Okamoto Dousuke.

"I'm starting to eat." He opened his chopsticks and started eating with big mouthfuls.

After paying the bill, Okamoto Dousuke walked out of Ichiraku Ramen and went home.

Go back home and wash up.

Okamoto Dousuke was lying on the bed, playing with a gourd-shaped bottle in his hands.

Because of the playing, the dark blue hero water in the bottle kept shaking.

Carefully put away the hero's water and slowly fell asleep.

After getting up early in the morning, Dousuke Okamoto put the hero water on the bedside table into his backpack.

After a simple packing, Okamoto Dousuke walked towards the direction of Konoha Hospital. He didn't go to see Tsunade the first time yesterday. He didn't know if Tsunade would blame him after knowing it.

When he arrived at Konoha Hospital and walked into the lobby, he didn't recognize the nurse on duty. She might be a new person who came during his absence.

He walked around the hall with ease, went up to the third floor, and arrived at Tsunade's office door.

Beneath, bee, bee.

"Teacher, I'm back." Okamoto Dousuke knocked on the door.

There were sounds of footsteps in the house, but Tsunade's usual strong voice was not heard.
