Chapter 586: What Are You Reading? |
Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer Chapter 586 What Are You Reading?
The more Konan thought about it, the more she felt that this kind of thing was very reliable. Ramen Ichiraku was the place that Toneri had personally mentioned. In other words, if she moved and lived near Ramen Ichiraku, she might be able to meet Toneri often.
Of course.
She knew.
She might not be able to recognize Toneri.
But Toneri could recognize her, so it seemed okay.
After all...
As a paper user, Konan knew that Toneri's appearance was not his true appearance but a disguise.
She did not know Toneri's specific appearance.
This feeling...
It was like an online relationship.
Knowing that the other party might be a photo scammer.
You would still add various filters and auras in your mind and filter out all possible bad things, leaving only the good things in front of your eyes.
"If I suggest moving the Akatsuki Organization to Land of Fire, Konohagakure..."
"The biggest obstacle should be Nagato."
"It's still easier to talk to Yahiko."
"Nagato and Konohagakure have a parent-killing grudge."
"It seems that I will have to have a good chat with Nagato tomorrow."
Konan silently whispered to herself. Her thoughts began to float quickly. She had already begun to think about the matters behind her.
After that.
Konan immediately lay on the bed and closed her eyes. She wanted to sleep peacefully so that she could welcome tomorrow as soon as possible.
...
On the other side.
In the cave.
Nagato and Yahiko looked at each other. Neither of them spoke. They were clearly very good friends, but at this time, they seemed strangers.
In the minds of these two people.
They all regarded Konan's words as talking about them, which led to a very divided idea. They didn't even know what to say, and what impact every word might have.
Gradually.
Time passed by.
The members of the Akatsuki organization at the scene could no longer stay here.
However.
Nagato and Yahiko still hadn't moved, so they didn't dare to leave so easily.
"Everyone is tired. Rest early. Let's talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say."
Yahiko keenly felt the helplessness in everyone's hearts. He immediately waved his hands to everyone, indicating that the matter would end there for the time being, and then turned around and walked into the inner part of the cave.
"Phew..."
Everyone at the scene immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Yahiko was the nominal boss of the Akatsuki Organization. When Yahiko was present, they felt a sense of oppression in their hearts.
"Let's disperse too!"
"Yes, yes!"
"Konan and Nagato are back. There's nothing else to worry about!"
"It was a false alarm!"
"I'm going back to read!"
"..."
The members of the Akatsuki organization spoke up one after another. They all felt that there was nothing else to do here. So they once again placed their attention on the book that "Juko" had given them.
"Book?!"
Nagato suddenly thought of Teacher Bai's story in his hands. When he read it at that time, he felt that it was quite exciting, but he was worried about Konan's well-being at that time. His heart was filled with Konan, but he was attracted to the book's content. It was not quite right.
But...
The situation was different now.
Nagato felt that the distance between him and Konan had become further.
Rather than feeling sad on this lonely and cold night, it was better to shift his attention to Teacher Bai's story. At least the fragments in it can give his soul a little solace.
After that.
Nagato reached into his ninja pouch.
There were fine drops of water on his ninja pouch. After staying in the rain for a long time, the ninja pouch was already wet.
However.
Ninja pouches were waterproof.
This was a type of ninja tool specially made in the Land of Rain.
It could perfectly match the environment of rainy days.
The ninja pouch prevents the contents inside from getting wet, especially the important scrolls and documents in the ninja pouch.
Nagato began to walk in the direction of the cave entrance.
As he walked closer and closer, the air he could feel became colder and colder, especially the cold wind that entered the cave from outside.
Even so.
He still felt that this would allow him to become more clear-headed.
Immediately after.
Nagato began to silently read Teacher Bai's story.
...
Midnight.
Konan lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Logically speaking.
She must be very sleepy and tired, yet she was in good spirits.
Perhaps it has something to do with what she just thought about...
The more Konan wanted herself to quickly fall asleep, the more she couldn't sleep. In the end, she stared at the stones on the roof of the room with her eyes wide open. All she thought about was what Toneri said when they were chatting.
"Forget it!"
Konan immediately sat up from the bed and looked in the direction of the door.
"I can't sleep now."
"I can't sleep no matter what I do."
"Rather than wasting time like this."
"Why don't I go chat with Nagato!"
Konan immediately made up her mind. Right now, her heart was filled with things, and could not sleep at all. It would only make things worse if she could not resolve these matters.
Immediately after.
Konan lifted the quilt, got up directly, pushed open the door, and walked out.
The cave at night was cold, and the cave was very quiet. Occasionally, he could hear snoring sounds.
'Everyone was sleeping well!'
Konan muttered in her mind. It was not like she had never come out at this time in the past. Basically, everyone in the Akatsuki organization had gone to bed at this time.
However, the snoring in the past was a bit louder but now it was weak.
It could be seen.
The people here were all sleeping soundly.
In that case.
Konan's movements were much more relaxed. After all, everyone was already asleep, so he had nothing to avoid and walked out towards the outer circle of the cave.
However.
After Konan walked for a while, she found some lights.
"Huh?"
Konan was puzzled. Why was there still light? Is there still someone awake at this time?
This question appear in in her mind one after another.
Konan glanced around the cave and looked in the direction of the fire. In an instant, her gaze was fixed on the scene in front of her. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly because she could not believe what she saw.
The scene in front of her.
It was very strange.
Konan could clearly see the members of the Akatsuki organization gathered around a campfire. They were all holding books and reading attentively. Everyone's face was flushed. It was unknown if they were reading too seriously or if it was due to the campfire's heat.
"What are you guys reading?"
Konan softly asked. The moment her voice rang out, the ninjas who were reading Teacher Bai's story without eating or sleeping, were all startled. When they looked over, Konan could see that everyone's eyes were red.
"..."
When Konan felt that everyone was looking at her, she immediately felt very uncomfortable. The eyes of these people were so direct as if they could see through the clothes she was wearing.
This kind of gaze...
It had never appeared before.
There was a problem here!
A big problem!
Konan felt that the way these people looked at her was not normal, especially those red cheeks and the constant saliva swallowing. There was no longer the respect they usually had. They were more like hungry wolves, staring greedily at this rare piece of meat.
"Are you... alright?"
Konan's brows furrowed tightly. Even Konan couldn't stand facing such looks from so many people.
She suddenly realized.
Ever since she had been taken away by Toneri.
Everything here had changed.
It was strange everywhere!
Now that she was inexplicably stared at by these people, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. She secretly took a step back, as if she were afraid that these people would pounce on her like hungry wolves.
"Gulp!"
The sound of swallowing once again sounded on the scene. These people were still staring straight at Konan.
In fact, this was not difficult to understand.
Konan was originally the goddess of the Akatsuki organization.
Konan's position in the hearts of the members of the Akatsuki organization was the same. Still, they all knew that there was a very clear distance between them and Konan, so they could only silently fantasize.
The appearance of this book.
It gave them a specific plot in their fantasy.
When they were reading Teacher Bai's story, they unconsciously replaced Konan with Teacher Bai and began to imagine all kinds of scenes that had happened.
It could be said that...
Nine out of ten people in the Akatsuki organization imagined Teacher Bai becoming Konan.
At this time.
It was deep into the night.
They all read with great interest.
The fantasy in their minds had reached a certain level.
And at this time.
Konan appeared.
This gave them a very strange illusion as if the Teacher Bai in the book just walked out and stood in front of them.
"Cough cough..."
Konan cleared her throat again. She felt that there was something wrong with everyone's eyes. Something was really wrong. She needed to use this method to remind these people.
After such a reminder.
The people at the scene gradually woke up.
They gradually withdrew their unbridled gazes and looked at Konan with restrained gazes.
"Konan-sama!"
These people from the Akatsuki organization greeted Konan one after another. After that, they lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look at Konan's face again. They were afraid that they would think of something they should not think of and be noticed.
"Where is Nagato?"
Konan did not want to stay here for too long. She was going to discuss things with Nagato, but the eyes of these people were the main reason why she did not want to stay here any longer.
"At... at the entrance..."
A ninja near the campfire said. His voice was hoarse as if he was trying his best to hide his emotions.
After the person answered.
There was no more sound at the scene.
Moreover.
These people all lowered their heads.
No one dared to look at Konan.
They also did not continue to read.
It looked as if they had lowered their heads to think.
"What are you reading?"
Konan glanced at these people and almost asked this question out of the blue. However, she regretted it after she finished asking.
"It's nothing."
Konan quickly waved her hand and immediately walked carefully around the campfire. After that, she walked quickly toward the entrance of the cave. She didn't want to cause any trouble here.
"I'm going to find Nagato."
