"Anko-nee?", Aoba looked at her without saying anything, as she walked toward him like that, not knowing what she wanted to do.
Anko didn't speak, she just walked up next to Aoba, picked up a black silk-like item from beside him, and held it up in front of his face.
Smiling with narrowed eyes, she said, "Didn't expect Aoba would be interested in sothing like this from your big sister?"
"Ah, uh…"
Aoba looked at the thing that was almost touching his face, and it even carried a slight scent. It seed like it had just been worn yesterday.
He couldn't help turning his face to the side.
"I was just helping tidy things up."
"Yo, your face is red."
Anko leaned in even closer, and said in a small crafty voice, "If you're interested, I can give this to you, you know?"
As she said that, a mysterious smile appeared on her face.
Aoba didn't feel any trace of temptation from her expression, only that it was a bit pearverted.
"Anko, what are you doing?", At this mont, a chilly voice sounded. Anko's body stiffened for an instant.
Yuhi Kurenai, already changed into her clothes, was standing at the bedroom door, staring at Anko without blinking.
"Ku—", Before Anko could finish her sentence, Kurenai appeared in front of her like a gust of wind, snatched the item from her hand, and threw it straight into the trash can.
"Hey! I was planning to give that to Aoba as a keepsake!", Anko looked regretful.
The corners of Aoba's and Kurenai's mouths twitched at the sa ti. This woman is seriously hopeless.
Kurenai grabbed her ear directly, "How many tis have I told you, don't throw random things around in soone else's house!"
"That's because I drank too much yesterday… I know I was wrong!", Anko tried to act tough at first, but feeling Kurenai's grip getting stronger, she imdiately begged for rcy.
Seeing this, Kurenai released her hand. Only then did she realize the surroundings had already been mostly tidied up.
"Thanks for the help, Aoba."
Aoba shook his head and said with a smile, "I just did a bit of simple cleaning."
Having regained her freedom, Anko wrapped her arm around Aoba's neck again and said with a smile, "Even though that one's gone, I still have another one on . If you want—"
"Anko!", Kurenai gritted her teeth and gave her a solid iron fist.
After the three of them finished tidying up the living room together, they started eating breakfast.
Although Aoba had already eaten, he still held a at bun and took slow bites.
"By the way, Aoba, was there sothing you wanted when you ca to see ?"
After swallowing what was in his mouth, Aoba nodded, "Sensei gave a commission last night."
"Commission?"
Kurenai froze for a mont, 'Doesn't that an my vacation is gone?'
Her mood imdiately soured a little.
During this period, even though she hadn't done any commissions, she still had to accompany Yakumo every day to practice genjutsu, so she hadn't really rested either.
She was planning to rest for three days before taking on a commission. Looks like that's gone now.
"It's protecting a female actress while she films a movie in the Land of Snow. But the commission might involve the sovereignty of the Land of Snow…", Aoba briefly explained the details of the commission.
"Fujikaze Yukie? The one who played Princess Gale?", Anko's eyes lit up the mont she heard the na Fujikaze Yukie.
"Didn't expect a daimyo to actually beco an actress," Kurenai also sighed, then looked at Aoba with a deep gaze.
Aoba, being stared at, was a bit confused and asked, "Kurenai-nee, why are you looking at like that?"
Kurenai sighed helplessly again, "Feels like I've completely beco a mission tool now."
'Tsunade actually handed the mission directly to this guy.'
"You knew that ages ago, didn't you?", Anko next to her couldn't help patting her shoulder. Her eyes suddenly spun, "How about I take them on the mission instead of you?"
"We're both jonin. Hokage-sama won't have any problem with that."
"Heh!", Kurenai let out a cold laugh. Facing Anko's hopeful eyes, how could she not know what this woman was thinking.
If she let her go with Aoba, she didn't even dare to imagine what this commission would turn into.
"Just hurry and eat. After that we still need to go get Hinata and Yakumo."
"Tch!", Seeing that Kurenai ignored her, Anko pouted and viciously bit into her large bun twice.
Kurenai was so heartless. She even tried to assist her, yet Kurenai not only didn't help, she was even dragging her down.
Aoba didn't say anything and focused on eating his bun.
After finishing breakfast, the three of them went downstairs together.
"Haah, you're all going off on a mission, and I have no one to play with again," At the mont of parting, Anko couldn't help sighing.
"Don't be too lazy either," Kurenai said helplessly.
Anko, looking like everything went in one ear and out the other, said to Aoba, "When you et Fujikaze Yukie, rember to get a signed photo."
"No problem," Aoba nodded and agreed.
After saying goodbye, the two sides separated.
———
"Aoba, for this mission, did Tsunade-sama give any other instructions?"
On the way, Kurenai asked again.
"What instructions?", Aoba was stunned. He had already told her all the details.
Kurenai looked around, then quietly leaned close to his ear and softly said, "Like finding an opportunity to take control of the Land of Snow, things like that."
The corner of Aoba's mouth couldn't help twitching, "Kurenai-nee, your thoughts are too dangerous."
"Didn't we do that when we went to the Land of Waves last ti?", Kurenai asked, puzzled.
"...", Aoba had a serious expression, "In any case, there's no special instruction this ti."
"All right then," Seeing that there really wasn't any hidden mission, Kurenai didn't ask further.
The two walked a bit further.
"Aoba-sama?", A girl with dark green hair wearing a maid dress, Hyuga Natsu, appeared in front of the two.
She clearly looked surprised when she saw Aoba.
"Aoba-sama, are you heading to the clan grounds?"
Aoba didn't expect to et her and nodded, "Natsu, are you going grocery shopping?"
Hyuga Natsu's pretty face flushed, and she lowered her head, twisting her fingers, "Aoba-sama told to co see you after the Chunin Exams…?"
Aoba froze for a mont, then rembered that matter, and imdiately showed an apologetic expression.
"Our class has a last-minute commission outside the village today, so it'll have to wait a while longer, I'm truly sorry."
Hearing this, Hyuga Natsu quickly waved her hands, "It's fine, it's fine! Just tell when you co back."
Kurenai watched their interaction and frowned slightly.
'This guy doesn't even spare the maid.'
After the little episode, the two quickly gathered Hinata and Yakumo as well.
Even though their vacation ended early, neither Hinata nor Yakumo felt disappointed.
Because they were going out together with Aoba.
And the mission target was Fujikaze Yukie.
Both of them were very excited about that actress.
