After several minutes, Kurenai Yuhi came out of the hotel.
"The client still needs to make some purchases in Konoha. You must gather at the village entrance at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Kurenai Yuhi instructed, "After the group is dismissed, go back and prepare some clothes for changing, as well as tents and quilts for camping. It's better to prepare some food pills. If you can't fit your things, go buy a storage scroll. You can afford the remuneration during this period."
"Yes."
Team 8 nodded in response.
"Gather at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Remember not to be late." Kurenai Yuhi reminded again, and then disappeared in an instant.
Izayoi and Hinata also said goodbye to Shino Aburame.
"Izayoi-kun, you don't need to buy a storage scroll. I'll bring one tomorrow." Hinata said softly.
Izayoi pinched Hinata's little face and teased, "As expected of a rich lady, you want to support me so soon?"
"Support...support..."
Hinata's face flushed instantly, and her voice became trembling.
"I'm just kidding."
Izayoi touched Hinata's head, then held her hand and said with a smile: "You don't need to bring the storage scroll. I'll just bring a backpack. If you need to camp in the wild, I'll keep watch and protect you."
Hinata's face turned even redder when she heard this. She subconsciously lowered her head and looked at her hand interlocked with hers. A happy smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her lips.
Her heart was as sweet as honey.
Although the relationship between the two has not been completely broken, the relationship between Izayoi and Hinata has long been no different from that of a couple.
If it weren't for the consideration that announcing the relationship might spread to the family and attract some obstruction from the elders, Hinata would have taken the initiative to confess to Izayoi.
When she and Izayoi both become jonin, or can become the clan leader and the elite jonin of the trump card, they can be together completely.
Even her father and the elders can't stop them.
That day will definitely not be long.
Hinata suddenly clenched Izayoi's hand and thought to herself.
Izayoi didn't know what Hinata was thinking, otherwise she would have smiled with relief again.
Hinata, whose personality had changed, was already good enough.
Hinata, who had a goal, would become even better.
With more guidance, the princess with white eyes would shine brightly.
...
The next day, at 7:50 in the morning.
Izayoi and Hinata, each carrying a backpack, came to the entrance of the village.
There, Aburame Shino, who was also carrying a backpack, had been waiting for a long time.
"Good morning."
"Morning."
"Shino, don't you bring a tent?"
"I brought it, and put it in the storage scroll. If you need a ration pill, come to me."
"Thank you, but Hinata has already prepared it for me."
"..."
After greeting each other as usual, Izayoi started chatting with Aburame Shino.
But this time, it was not the 'cold' Aburame Shino who killed the chat, but Izayoi himself. Aburame Shino, who was inexplicably fed with dog food, did not show any changes on the surface, but was in a very bad mood.
However, he was not a person who could do anything weird, so he could only choose to remain silent.
Seeing that Aburame Shino was silent again, Izayoi could only whisper to Hinata aside.
To avoid being overheard, Izayoi only talked about normal topics and did not tease Hinata.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Not long after, Yuhi Kurenai's voice drew Izayoi and the other two's attention.
A convoy of more than a dozen people suddenly came into their sight.
The leaders were Kurenai Yuhi and a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes.
The middle-aged man was looking at the three of them at the moment, with a warm smile on his face. Through the window of his soul, he could see his joy.
And the three of them found that the other party's eyes stayed on Hinata the longest.
But it was not because Hinata was proud of her figure among her peers, but because of her eyes.
Izayoi released his perception and did not feel any malice on him.
It seemed that it was not because of Hinata's Byakugan that was aimed at Hinata, but because there were Byakugans in the escort team.
The Byakugan of the Hyuga clan is the most famous perception eye in the ninja world.
With 360-degree farsightedness and perspective, it can see through all low-level invisibility techniques.
Even if you can blend your body into the ground to escape from the eyes of the Hyuga clan.
With the Byakugan, the team can detect danger in advance and escape in time.
The commission for the C-level mission can invite a member of the Hyuga clan, which is simply a good deal.
No wonder the middle-aged man is so happy.
After thinking this through, Izayoi didn't care.
"Let me introduce you to our client. You can call him Mr. Nishimura." Kurenai introduced the middle-aged man to Izayoi and the other two.
"Mr. Nishimura."
Team 8 greeted him politely.
"Hello, I'll trouble you next."
Mr. Nishimura was not arrogant at all, but kept his attitude very low.
Seeing that the client was so easy to get along with, Team 8, who had encountered strange clients in D-level missions and finally got good reviews after a little effort, was also relieved.
"Let's go, we can set off."
Kurenai and Mr. Nishimura handed the village exit certificate that had been processed in advance to the gatekeeper, and Izayoi and the other two walked out of the village where they had lived for twelve years for the first time.
At first, Hinata and Aburame Shino were very much looking forward to the outside.
But when they passed the first town, they were greatly disappointed.
Although there are many prosperous commercial towns like Tansho Street in the Land of Fire, there are more ordinary towns and villages, and their construction is naturally not as good as Konoha as a military base.
Moreover, most of the nobles now travel by sedan chair or carriage.
High-tech like trains will take many years to come out.
In less than a day, Hinata and Aburame Shino lost their expectations and focused on the mission.
Ninjas move very quickly. If they travel at full speed, they can reach the Sand Village in the Wind Country from Konoha in the Land of Fire in about three days. In more than a week, they can reach the most remote place in the Ninja World.
But that is for ninjas.
If there are ordinary people in the team, it depends on the speed of the other party.
The mining team has more than a dozen people, two carriages, and no goods on the return trip, so the speed is much faster than walking.
Even so, the team still stopped and walked, and it took eight days to leave the Land of Fire.
"Hinata, how is the surrounding situation?"
As soon as they left the territory of the Land of Fire and turned from the forest road to the mountain road, Yuhi Kurenai asked Hinata, who opened her white eyes and had veins bulging on both sides of her temples.
"There is no danger within a radius of 20 kilometers."
"What?!"
Hinata clearly gave a safe answer, but it almost shocked Yuhi Kurenai and Aburame Shino.
There was nothing they could do, they were all shocked by Hinata's data.
