Chapter 2198 Japanese-Style Cabin (4,000 Words)

Well……

Is this the only way?

Call someone?

Turning their heads blankly, they looked at Nara Shikamaru who shouted, and a strange look appeared on the faces of Yamanaka Ino and Akimichi Choji at the same time.

"Hey! Is there anyone there?"

Then, after watching for two or three seconds, the two finally shouted.

Now, it seems that there is no better way besides calling people. In fact, calling people should be the best way at the moment.

Now that Shikamaru has confirmed that someone lives here, if they are willing to investigate this house, the best way is to obtain the owner's consent. As long as the owner agrees, then there will be no problem.

The most important thing to do now is to call someone.

As for whether the owner of the house agrees or not, whether it will allow them to investigate arbitrarily and ask various questions to the original owner of this Japanese-style cabin is not something they consider.

Just leave this kind of thing to Shikamaru.

They don't need to worry.

It is even very possible that now that Shikamaru has shouted out, he probably already has a way in his mind to face the owner of the house's disapproval.

What they should do is call people now.

These guys...

When Nara Shikamaru heard the two people's voices, he glanced at the two people who started to call the owner of the house seriously, and a hint of surprise flashed on his face.

Really are……

Then, amid this look of surprise, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Is there anyone? Excuse me!"

Then, amid this smile, Nara Shikamaru shouted again.

Suddenly, the voices of the three people came and went, resounding throughout the wooden house in the sea of ​​flowers.

Then, I kept shouting for half an hour, but there was no response.

The entire Japanese-style wooden house and the sea of ​​flowers were quiet, and a feeling that no one lived at all slowly emerged in the hearts of the three of them.

In an instant, the three of them stopped talking and looked at each other.

quiet--!

"What should I do? Shikamaru."

After being quiet for a while, looking at the entrance-like space behind the Japanese-style door that seemed a bit dark and empty with no lights ahead and little sunlight shining in, Akimichi Choji looked at Nara Shikamaru and couldn't help but speak. asked.

"Is it possible that no one lives here?"

At the same time, Yamanaka Ino also asked suspiciously.

"Um……"

But after hearing the words of the two people, Nara Shikamaru did not speak. Instead, he groaned, looked away, and looked back at the flower path behind him.

No one lives there?

However, this garden has obviously been pruned, and it has only been pruned for a short period of time. Moreover, it is impossible for this garden to maintain its current appearance of a sea of ​​flowers without careful care.

I walked all the way just now, and there was not a trace of weeds among the flowers.

Obviously, someone comes to take care of it often.

There is no dust on the door of this Japanese-style wooden house, and there is no obvious color difference between the inside and outside of the door.

Apparently there are people coming in and out often...

It shouldn't be uninhabited.

But in his heart, he began to think about it.

If the current situation hadn't made him feel that this Japanese-style cabin was uninhabited, he wouldn't have doubted whether anyone really lived here.

Whether it's the garden or the tatami on the floor inside and outside the door, it shows that people often come in and out of this Japanese-style cabin.

This can only happen if there are people living here.

"Do you still want to shout?"

Seeing that Nara Shikamaru was silent, Akimichi Choji asked again uncertainly.

"Wait a moment."

In response, Nara Shikamaru frowned slightly and did not answer immediately. He just asked Akimichi Choji and Yamanaka Ino to wait.

The door is open.

If no one lives here, the door should be locked.

As for the people living here, they have been living in such a remote place for a long time. If they have less contact with other people, it is possible for them to leave the house without closing the door.

That being said, there are indeed people living here.

This Japanese-style cabin is definitely inhabited.

At the same time, the thought flashed through his mind. Based on various inferences along the way, this Japanese-style cabin was definitely inhabited.

Just because this place is remote, many people don't seem to know that there is such a Japanese-style cabin here, so the owner habitually leaves the door unlocked.

Um?

Could it be, there is another possibility!

However, soon, an idea suddenly flashed in Nara Shikamaru's mind, and this inference was overturned by another thought that emerged.

In fact, no one lives in this Japanese-style wooden house, but there are people who often come to take care of the garden and clean this Japanese-style wooden house!

For example, Asuma-sensei, the best friend of the strongest ninja during his lifetime.

Although he has become a taboo, after all, he is Teacher Asuma's friend who will still mention, lament, pay tribute to, and grieve for after so many years.

The only thing left from his lifetime.

Asuma-sensei, or some other friend of the strongest ninja, would take care of this Japanese-style wooden house with a garden.

More than ten years later, Asuma-sensei still thinks that this strongest ninja must have good popularity.

Having a few more friends shouldn't be anything unusual.

Even his name is engraved on the memorial tablet, and he died as a hero.

Friends came to take care of him. Although the village made him taboo for some reasons, as a hero, the village left something of him to prove that there had been such a person in the village. It's not impossible.

In fact, it is very likely.

And this house should be the best preservation.

If you think about it this way, everything makes sense.

This Japanese-style wooden house was deliberately kept by the village and not allocated. It was a way to silently commemorate the strongest ninja whose name was engraved on the memorial tablet, but no deeds were passed down.

And it was precisely because the Japanese-style cabin had not been assigned that friends of the strongest ninja came to clean it.

created the current scene.

After the overthrow, his mind suddenly became clear.

Indeed, it seems that this house is inhabited now, but if we add a section to commemorate this hero whose deeds cannot be forgotten, and even his name is lost to everyone.

It definitely made sense that the house in front of me was unoccupied.

"Go in, maybe no one lives here!"

And thinking of this, Nara Shikamaru no longer hesitated, stepped into the Japanese-style cabin first, and said.

"Huh? No one lives there?"

After hearing these words and seeing Nara Shikamaru entering first, Yamanaka Ino and Akimichi Choji were startled, with a look of shock flashing across their faces.

Obviously, he didn't expect Nara Shikamaru to do such a thing, so he went in minding his own business.

Moreover, it is still unclear whether there are people living there.

What he just said was just a possibility. It can be seen that he is actually not sure about this.

Shikamaru wasn't sure yet if the Japanese-style cabin was inhabited.

However, under such circumstances, Shikamaru went in directly.

This has never been seen before, let alone unheard of.

If someone else had told them this, they would never believe it.

Based on their understanding of Nara Shikamaru, their friend was definitely the type who made decisions before taking action. Although he was known to be quick-witted, in essence, he was the type who decided everything before taking action.

They were astonished by such rash behavior as now.

"If there is really an owner of the house, then we will say that he entered by mistake. Because the sea of ​​flowers is so beautiful, we couldn't help but enter the house."

At this moment, Nara Shikamaru said as he walked inside.

Um……

Although the furniture has some unavoidable traces of obsolescence, because the wood chosen is very good, it only looks a little old.

You can tell that someone will come and clean it up.

Judging from the scrubbing marks on the long table, someone came here to wipe it again today or yesterday.

The shoes in the shoe cabinet are a bit old and can no longer be worn.

It can be seen that there should be at least two people living here.

Judging from the shoes in the shoe cabinet.

At the same time, this series of thoughts already flashed through his mind.

"Really...that's it."

But after hearing these words, Akimichi Choji and Yamanaka Ino breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

This is Shikamaru!

Isn’t this a backup plan?

Alright! Alright!

Shikamaru is not abnormal, he is still the same person who makes plans and then acts. No problem, let's go in!

At the same time, such a thought flashed through their minds.

Then, with this thought, the two of them simply entered the house and followed Nara Shikamaru.

On the left is the living room. This long table is probably used for eating.

On the right, well...is the kitchen!

It seems that the water supply has not been cut off yet, there is still water in the pool.

Um?

Is this water from a mountain spring? It's amazing to be able to maintain the water level all the time. I don't know who designed this water circulation system.

Although it is not as convenient as tap water, the mountain spring water is purer. Is it brought from Hokage Rock Mountain?

Amazing!

This agency!

Recently, Yamanaka Ino and Akimichi Choji began to look at it curiously. Subconsciously, Yamanaka Ino began to evaluate this Japanese-style cabin.

Moreover, I had a strong interest and admiration for a water circulation system in the kitchen.

Although the cabin was slightly dark, perhaps because the windows were not opened and the sunlight did not shine in, it did not prevent their curious eyes from searching for all useful information here.

cupboard……

furnishings...

It's all very simple!

However, there are daily utensils for three people. Are three people living here?

So, that is to say, the strongest ninja is...

impossible!

Forget about Uchiha Hirohiko, Hinata Yukina should be a member of the Hyuga clan, that's what Uncle Haiichi said.

How could members of the Hyuga clan live outside the Hyuga clan's territory?

Could it be that their relationship was too close, so there were traces of the two of them in the home of the strongest ninja.

At this time, when Akimichi Choji and Yamanaka Ino walked in, Nara Shikamaru, who came in first, had already checked the utensils in the kitchen and living room, and began to judge the people living in this house.

Um?

Is this a staircase?

At the same moment, when Nara Shikamaru closed the cabinet in the living room, when Akimichi Choji was attracted by the other rooms next to the living room and walked in, Yamanaka Ino's eyes had already left the corridor and fell on the room directly opposite. Above the back door and up the stairs on the back side.

Subconsciously, she walked up quickly.

"I'll go take a look on the second floor!"

And when her hand touched the smooth but cold wooden handrail of the escalator, she said this to Nara Shikamaru.

"Oh! Don't move things! It should be the bedroom above!"

In response, Nara Shikamaru, who heard this, moved his eyes away and spoke.

"I see!"

But before he finished speaking, Yamanaka Ino's response had already arrived, and at the same time, with this sound, there was the sound of thumping going upstairs.

Ah……

If there is an owner of the house, I hope to find all the useful information before the owner comes back.

I also hope that things will not become troublesome again.

Following the thumping sound of people going up the stairs, looking at Yamanaka Ino's impatient look, Nara Shikamaru breathed out softly, and a thought with some prayers flashed through his heart.

Um?

Then, at this moment, his eyes flashed.

Is this a backdoor?

He noticed the back door by the stairs.

After that, he moved his steps and headed directly towards the back door without thinking. After a while, he had already grasped the door handle of the back door.

At this time, he had already seen all the objects in the house that could be seen as writing. Although the cabin was not small, the objects inside were surprisingly simple. Except for the furniture that could not be seen, Just some simple everyday utensils and nothing else.

From here, he couldn't find any information.

Behind this backdoor, there may be other traces that can be used to collect some information.

After all, although people have come in now, the possibility that this cabin has a new owner cannot be ruled out.

Now they have broken into a private house.

In order to prevent things from becoming troublesome, we had to settle things quickly. Logically speaking, the upstairs of this cabin should be the bedroom, where the most information should be, but now Ino has already gone up. From the perspective of efficiency, it would be better for him to check other places for the time being.　　　　　　　　　　While having this thought, the door of this Japanese-style cabin was opened. "This! This!" The moment he opened the door and saw the scene at the back door, Nara Shikamaru's eyes opened slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across his face. "Hurry! Shikamaru! Come up!" At the same time, Yamanaka Ino's excited voice also sounded from the stairs at this time.
