CH 21

When they got home, Keiko really lived up to expectations as when she saw Kanpū’s face, her face suddenly became stern.

“Kanpū-chan, how many times have I said that you must never fight at the Academy!”

Keiko seriously criticized.

Shinobi have great power. If every Shinobi does things with their own likes and dislikes, and fights with the others at every turn, their great power will become a threat, ranging from destroying a street to destroying a village or even a country!

Therefore, the Great Hidden Villages’ control of Shinobi is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Once you do something out of the ordinary, you will be controlled directly. If you resist, you will be directly suppressed and sent to prison for reflection. If you run, you’ll become Missing-nin. Not only will you have bounty, but the village will also send Anbu to hunt you down, endlessly!

The reason Keiko is worried that Kanpū fighting at the Academy is because she is afraid that he will not learn well. And if he encountered unhappy things, he will directly use his fist to solve it. In the Academy, this kind of behavior is the easiest way to resolve all disputes indeed, and if you are found, you will be criticized and educated by your teachers at most, but after you go out of the Academy, you are a Shinobi. And if you dare to fight with others at every turn, you will be sent to prison sooner or later!

Keiko remembers that many years ago, Tsunade, one of the Sannin, tamed a pair of brothers called Fūjin and Raijin. These two brothers were strong as an ox, but they were are stupid. And because they couldn’t eat enough, they started to cause destruction with their terrifying strange powers, and were finally sent to prison by Tsunade herself and locked up. From then on, she never saw any trace of these brothers!

Therefore, Keiko must not allow her son to follow in the footsteps of those two idiots!

“Aunt Keiko.”

At this moment, Hayate started to talk, “Big brother didn’t fight. He fell down the stairs because he saved someone.”

Kanpū sighed, and showed an embarrassed and melancholy expression.

However, Kanpū’s expression didn’t last long.

“Is that so?” Keiko looked at Kanpū annoyedly, “I am a medical staff, and I have to face all kinds of injured people every day. Kanpū-chan, do you think I can’t tell the difference that the injury on your face was caused by a fall from the stairs or was beaten by someone?”

The corner of Kanpū’s mouth twitched upon hearing this, ‘Damn, I forgot about it.’

‘In that case, it’s time to show the real technology: Ditch the car and keep it cool!’

Kanpū immediately turned his face and said, “Hayate, how can you do this! I know you are doing this for my own good, but you can’t lie, I’m so disappointed in you! I don’t need you now to speak up for me, shut up, I don’t need it, I don’t need it, I don’t need it…”

“I…”

‘It’s obviously big brother who told me to say that.’

(ಥ﹏ಥ)

Hayate looked at Kanpū aggrievedly, and he wasn’t feeling well.

“Kanpū-chan!!!” Keiko has saved more people than Kanpū has beaten. So how could she still not know what was in his heart. She was so angry that she was speechless.

When Kanpū saw his mother seemed to be really angry, he had no choice but to tell the truth: “Kaa-san, I didn’t fight, I just… was beaten.”

Then, he explained the entire process of development.

When she heard that her son was beaten up by angry people because he reminded his teacher to leave homework, Keiko’s expression softened.

“Kanpū-chan, you did nothing wrong!” Keiko said, “You are still students, so the teacher leaves homework after class is for your own good! If they hit you again next time, you need to go find that Yu-sensei, understand?”

Kanpū nodded.

Keiko said again: “Kaa-chan is proud of you in this matter.”

“Thank you, Kaa-san.” Kanpū breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next moment, his scalp was numb.

“Kanpū~chan! What did you just call me?” Keiko narrowed her eyes.

“…”

‘It’s just a title, why do you care so much about it?’

Kanpū is totally in disbelief, so he can only bite the bullet and pretend to be tender: “Kaa-chan is the youngest and most beautiful!”

“Big brother, you just lied to me!!!”

Hayate also stood up at this time and wanted to say something about what happened to him just now, “Apologize, big brother, apologize!”

Meeko turned around and went to cook with a smile. As for Hayate, she felt that children’s matter should be left to children to take care of.

Kanpū squinted at Hayate: ‘This Hayate sure is brazen, he wants me to apologize?’

‘Don’t you know what the words ‘big brother’ means?’

“Apologize, big brother, apologize, big brother …” Hayate grabbed the corner of Kanpū’s clothes reluctantly.

Kanpū sighed, reached out to pat Hayate’s shoulder, and said earnestly: “I lied to you for your own good, do you know what a white lie is?”

Hayate shook his head in confusion: “I don’t know.”

“It means for your own good. Everything I do is for your own good.”

Kanpū sighed. “I accompany you to train Kenjutsu because I hope that you will become stronger. I encourage you because I hope you can overcome any setbacks and stick to your dreams. And I lie to you because I hope you will not be affected by those messy things. I’ve done all of this for your sake. Now, you didn’t realize my painstaking effort at all. I’m very disappointed in you!”

Hayate hurriedly closed his mouth, he was a little afraid to look at Kanpū’s twinkling eyes, so his eyes dodged and looked at the floor.

“After dinner, I originally planned to accompany you to train Kenjutsu and help you fulfill your dreams. But now that you are like this, I am very sad. I can’t train Kenjutsu with you happily, nor will I be able to do it in the future.” Kanpū sighed and turned around, and then he said, “Go, you are already a mature younger brother, go and train Kenjutsu by yourself in the future.”

Hayate was made into a mess by Kanpū’s words. At this moment, he feels that what his big brother said made sense, but he actually blamed his big brother. But after a while, he felt that his big brother was making up stories to lie to him. So, he is doubtful to whether believed it or not.

When Hayate came back to his senses, Kanpū had already run into the kitchen.

The kitchen in Kanpū’s house is not big, and it can barely accommodate two adults, but fortunately, Kanpū is still small, so it doesn’t feel crowded.

“Kaa-chan, you shouldn’t make onigiri for tomorrow’s bento, okay?” Kanpū said euphemistically.

“Eh?”

Keiko looked down at Kanpū in surprise, “Kanpū-chan, don’t you like onigiri the most?”

Kanpū said earnestly: “I’m tired of eating it, I don’t want to eat onigiri anymore.”

Keiko then reprimanded: “Kanpū-chan, it’s not good to be picky eaters.”

Kanpū laughed dryly.

‘Picky eaters? P**s off.’

‘Adults will only buy what they like to eat, and if children don’t eat them, they are picky eaters!’

Kanpū has known this truth as early as his previous life.

So, he started to talk in a just and awe-inspiring way: “Kaa-chan, you are right. Until now, the one I eat the most is onigiri, which should not be right. There are so many other foods in this world, but I gave them up because of onigiri. I was wrong. I shouldn’t be picky eaters. I decided not to eat onigiri anymore, and I want to eat other foods. I can’t be picky eaters anymore!”

Keiko was stunned for a moment, ‘So Kanpū-chan is actually not a picky eater.’

Half-distracted, she came back to her senses, looked at him with a smile, and said: “Well, since Kanpū-chan said so, then I will make other things for your tomorrow’s bento.”

‘It’s done!’

Kanpū is breathed a sigh of relief, ‘I can finally say goodbye to those damned seaweed and sesame onigiri!’
