Chapter 14 Furukawa
"Hello, my name is Ryosuke!"
"Uchiha Qingming."
Looking at Ryosuke who came to the table, Qingming replied concisely.
After that, he looked at another person.
Mizutani Shizuko felt a little embarrassed by his gaze, shrank her neck, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "My name is Mizutani Shizuko."
After the three of them exchanged their names, they sat together after some negotiations by Ryosuke.
After that, it was Ryosuke who was talking, and Mizutani Shizuko responded intermittently, while Qingming basically remained silent.
From their conversations, Qingming knew that Ryosuke's parents were both Chunin, and both were technical talents, one engaged in code decryption work, and the other was a ninja in the barrier class.
But
Qingming didn't know why these two people would give birth to such a chatterbox like Ryosuke.
Could it be that he was holding it back at home?
Just when Qingming was secretly complaining, Ryosuke's voice suddenly interrupted him.
"Qingming, you haven't told me about your parents yet?"
"Sacrificed."
Qingming replied calmly.
Hearing this, Ryosuke was slightly stunned, scratched his head awkwardly, and said, "Um... Sorry, Qingming, I don't know."
"It's okay, it's all over."
Qingming replied calmly again.
Despite this, Ryosuke still closed his mouth embarrassedly.
Mizutani Shizuko on the side seemed to want to say something, but she mustered up her courage several times and finally didn't make up her mind to speak.
Seeing this, Qingming didn't take the initiative to ask.
It was nothing more than some comforting words, which the predecessor might need, but he didn't need.
·······
Time passed by minute by minute.
About half an hour later.
More than a dozen jonin came to the classroom.
Well.
Not all of them were real jonin, most of them were special jonin.
The so-called special jonin are some jonin whose strength cannot reach the level of jonin, but have unique talents in some aspects.
These people, called jonin, are actually just some ninjas between chunin and jonin.
Think about it, for their students, the potential of most people can be seen at a glance, and it is not worth wasting too much energy of jonin.
Now is the war time. As the backbone of the village, the jonins are in short supply. Although the training of reserve forces is also very important, it is not as important as the situation on the front line.
"Class 11, stand up."
A special jonin said on the podium.
Immediately, the three students named Nakajima Souta, Hanako and Feilong stood up.
After confirming that there was no problem, the special jonin led the people away.
Then the 12th and 13th classes
soon came to the 17th class where Qingming was.
"Uchiha Qingming? Mizutani Shizuko? Ryosuke?"
On the podium, a middle-aged ninja with a scar on his face stared at Qingming and the other two and said.
"It's us, teacher!"
The middle-aged ninja flipped through the files in his hand, nodded, and said, "Okay, follow me."
After that, he left the classroom.
Qingming and others followed immediately.
Ten minutes later, the group arrived at the tenth training ground.
This place is remote. Under normal circumstances, it takes half an hour to get here from the center of the village, but now it only takes half the time.
Therefore, apart from Qingming, Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko were exhausted.
Especially Mizutani Shizuko, she was a girl and had weak physical fitness, so it was not easy for her to run here in such a short time.
Despite this, Qingming did not think of helping the other party, because he was not sure whether this was a test from the previous jonin.
According to his observation, it was very likely that Shizuko Mizutani could hold on, so he just let it go.
"Okay, that's it."
Arriving at the center of the training ground, the middle-aged jonin finally stopped.
Seeing this, Qingming and the others also stopped one after another.
The middle-aged jonin's eyes swept over the three people, focusing on Qingming for a while, and then said: "You can keep up with my pace, which is considered to have passed the test initially."
"Test?"
Shizuko Mizutani panted and asked in confusion.
"Yes, it's a test."
The middle-aged jonin nodded and said: "On the battlefield, no matter what type of ninja you are, if your physical fitness is not up to standard, you are most likely to sacrifice."
Hearing this, Shizuko Mizutani was stunned, and her face gradually turned pale.
She really didn't expect that on the first day of becoming a ninja, she would hear such a serious topic about sacrifice.
Thinking of sacrifice, Shizuko Mizutani secretly glanced at Qingming, and secretly said: "I don't know how Qingming felt after hearing the news of his parents' sacrifice? I'm afraid he must be very sad!"
Qingming keenly noticed the other party's little action, but didn't say much.
The middle-aged ninja changed the subject and continued, "Okay, you guys take a break first."
Hearing this, Ryosuke and Mizutani Shizuko sat on the ground together to calm their breath, only Qingming stood aside, motionless.
This amount of exercise was nothing to him.
The middle-aged ninja glanced at Qingming, without saying much, just said, "Let's take advantage of the break time to get to know each other."
"Okay, teacher, we don't even know your name yet?"
Ryosuke, who hadn't interrupted just now, said immediately.
Hearing this, the middle-aged ninja nodded and introduced himself: "My name is Furukawa. As you can see, I am a jonin, 37 years old this year. I like playing shogi and hate people who don't follow the rules."
After that, he looked at Ryosuke and said, "You go first. Tell me your name and age, what you like and hate, and what your ideals are."
"Yes, Mr. Furukawa."
After responding, Ryosuke introduced himself: "My name is Ryosuke, I am ten years old this year, I like making friends, I hate any food containing coriander, and my ideal is to become a Hokage."
"Hokage? Another guy who has been brainwashed by the will of fire."
Qingming sighed in his heart.
Furukawa nodded expressionlessly, then looked at Mizutani Shizuko and said, "What about you?"
Mizutani Shizuko rested for a while and finally stopped panting when she spoke.
She just said, "My name is Shizuko Mizutani. I will be ten years old after the Chinese New Year. I like flower arranging and hate, uh."
Shizuko Mizutani thought for a while and shook her head, "I don't seem to have anything I particularly hate. As for my ideal,"
she looked around at the four people present and said with courage, "My ideal is to become a medical ninja like Tsunade-sama."
'Tsunade? '
Qingming glanced at Shizuko Mizutani and thought to himself, "Tsunade is really famous. No wonder she can become the fifth Hokage after leaving the village for so long."
Just as he was thinking, Furukawa cast his eyes on him and said, "It's your turn, Qingming."
"Yeah."
Qingming nodded and said, "My name is Uchiha Qingming, I'm ten years old, I like to practice, I hate trouble, and my ideal"
Qingming suddenly stopped talking about this.
It was because he found that he seemed to have never considered the distant future, let alone any ideals.
When he just crossed over, he was worried that his identity as an outsider would be exposed, so he practiced hard.
After fully accepting the experience and memories of his predecessor, he was worried about his survival in the Ninja World War, so he continued to practice hard.
The furthest thing he thought about was how to survive the disaster of genocide. He seemed to have never considered the future.
"Qingming?"
Seeing that Qingming suddenly stopped talking, Mizutani Shizuko poked his arm and called softly, "What's wrong?"
