81 Listen To The News

Half an hour later, these children had already eaten their fill, and their faces were not as numb as before.

Uchiha Tunan smiled and flicked away the food residue from the corner of the little girl's mouth. Then, he said to the children,

"Let's go, I'll take you to take a bath."

These children had already put down their guard against Uchiha Tunan at this time, and they followed behind Uchiha Tunan to the bathroom in the mansion.

Although it was called a bathroom, it was actually no smaller than a bathhouse.

After all, Uchiha Tunan was the captain of the North City Guard, and could be considered an average official in the Fire Capital.

A group of children soaked in the bath pool did not seem crowded at all.

Since they were still young, Uchiha Tunan did not separate the man and woman.

It was unknown how much dirt these children had gotten on their bodies, but the water in the pool was dyed black the moment they entered the water.

However, Uchiha Tunan did not mind at all. In any case, the water in the bath pool was water.

After a while, Uchiha Tunan felt that they were almost done soaking, so he called them up one by one and rubbed their bodies next to each other.

As Uchiha Tunan wiped the foam on the little girl in front of him, his heart ached as he said, "Poor child, your body is so dirty."

The little girl's mouth was shriveled and her eyes were hazy with tears. She shouted weakly, "Sir..."

Uchiha Tunan smiled and gently flicked the little girl's forehead with his finger. With a doting face, he said, "You don't have to call me that. Just call me Oniisan."

The sudden gentleness made the little girl who had been scared for days could no longer hold back. She threw herself into Uchiha Tunan's arms and sobbed, "Oniisan ---"

Uchiha Tunan smiled gently and patted the little girl's back. Then he said to the children in the pool,

"You can call me that in the future. Just treat this place as your own home."

"Mm..."

"Oniisan ---"

"Oniisan ---"

...

After washing the little girl's body, he washed it with clear water.

The water that was washed was inevitably splashed out and fell to the side of the pool.

"Alright, let's soak for a while longer. This water is all hot spring water that is good for the body."

Uchiha Tunan put the little girl into the pool and then pulled out another little boy.

While wiping the foam, he asked,

"What is your name?"

The little boy tried hard to search through his memories, but he found no clues.

He immediately shook his head with a blank face.

Uchiha Tunan smiled and said,

"Don't you remember?"

"It doesn't matter. In a few days, I will find a teacher for you and let the teacher name you."

The little boy hesitated for a moment, then leaned over and kissed Uchiha Tunan on the face. He said weakly,

"Thank you, Oniisan ---"

Although the little boy was not very sensible, he really liked the man in front of him who gave him a strong sense of security.

Uchiha Tunan reached out and gently rubbed the little boy's hair. With a doting face, he said, "Good boy."

The water in his hand wet the little boy's hair, and his wide palm seemed to be able to wrap his entire head.

At this time, when Sarutobi Shinnosuke heard about what happened this morning, he rushed to the northern city guard's Manor.

Jin welcomed Sarutobi Shinnosuke to the living room and sat down. He made a pot of tea for him and bowed, "please have some tea and wait a moment."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke nodded and looked around, but he did not find Uchiha Tunan. He asked, "Is Tunan not at home?"

Jin smiled. After putting down the teapot in his hand, he pointed to the backyard and said,

"Lord Tunan is bathing those orphans. Do you need me to inform him?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke rubbed his chin.

Shaking his head, he said, "No need. I'll go find him myself."

After that, he got up and walked towards the backyard.

In a certain aspect, Sarutobi Shinnosuke still inherited Hiruzen Sarutobi's true character. After all,' a tiger father does not have a dog son '.

When he passed through the bathroom window, Sarutobi Shinnosuke stopped and looked through the window to see the scene in the bathroom.

He saw that Uchiha Tunan was gently guiding these children while washing their bodies.

His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting these fragile orphans.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke smiled knowingly. He only stayed at the window for a moment before returning to the living room. He sat down and drank tea while waiting.

He thought to himself,

Even if his father did not say it, from the details just now, it was not hard to tell that Tunan was different from the other Uchiha clans.

Not only was he very kind, he was also very good at taking care of people.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, this was a good moral quality, a rare advantage.

But for Ninjas, if this characteristic was pinched, it was a fatal flaw.

However... it was easier to control people with shortcomings.

Bathing the children was a big project.

Uchiha Tunan busied himself from morning to afternoon before finally cleaning up all the children.

After washing, he led the group of children to the dormitory that they had prepared for them.

The dormitory was clean and warm, and it was specially ordered by Uchiha Tunan to clean it up so that these children who did not have a home could feel the warmth.

After experiencing so much, the children had long been physically and mentally exhausted and finally had a warm place to live.

Perhaps it was because their previous experiences were still fresh in their minds, but these children did not dare to cry out loud even though their eyes were filled with tears.

"Alright, you must not have rested well last night. This is your bedroom."

"If you are hungry, eat some snacks at the head of the bed and rest for a while."

Under Uchiha Tunan's arrangements, the children obediently lay on the bed and looked at him with a look of attachment.

When Uchiha Tunan saw that the children had finally relaxed, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Uchiha Tunan had long known that a new help had come to visit. When he had settled the children, he came to the living room.

The moment he saw the new help, Uchiha Tunan began to perform. He pretended to be surprised and said,

"Senior, why are you here?"

As he spoke, he seemed to be deeply apologetic as he quickened his steps and bowed to Shinnosuke before sitting down.

"I'm really sorry for waiting so long. I've been busy the entire day."

"Why didn't you let the attendant inform me?"

Shinnosuke had a smile on his face and didn't mind his neglect. He just looked at him and said,

"It doesn't matter."

"I heard that you did something amazing this morning, Tunan."

Uchiha Tunan smiled and shook his head.

"It is my duty. After all, I have accepted this task. I should do my best to do it."

Shinnosuke saw that Uchiha Tunan was very responsible for his tasks, and many things he had to do, and he admired him even more.

Thinking about this kind of person, if he was loyal to him in the future.

With the thought of getting close to Uchiha Tunan, Shinnosuke began to chat. "How have you been recently..."

....

The two chatted a lot.

Shinnosuke kept talking to Uchiha Tunan.

On the contrary, Uchiha Tunan just smiled and nodded.

However, Shinnosuke was not familiar with Uchiha Tunan and could not find any common language.

There was nothing else other than those words of concern and consolation.

Uchiha Tunan was a little impatient when he heard this, but he would not show it on his face.

Uchiha Tunan secretly shook his head in his heart. He had not yet been loyal, but he was so enthusiastic.

Little did he know that although he seemed to be close, it would only make people think that he was eager to recruit and urgently needed talent.

To make the other party think that he had no bottom line, it would only make others lose their respect for him.

What a rough control method.

Uchiha Tunan coughed lightly and wanted to change the topic. "The work in the famous mansion must be very boring."

Shinnosuke paused and did not notice Uchiha Tunan's intentions. He replied,

"I don't. After all, I am guarding His Highness at night. I am basically fine."

Uchiha Tunan casually asked while mixing tea for his Shinnosuke, "Is His Highness easy to get along with?"

Shinnosuke received the tea and nodded to express his thanks. Without much thought, he said, "His Highness the First Prince has a very good personality, but he looks a bit too honest.

"But compared to His Highness the Second Prince who only knows how to play all day long, he is much better."

Uchiha Tunan nodded. During this period of time, he had also learned a lot of important people in the capital of fire through special channels.

"His Highness the Second Prince should not be old, and it is normal for him to like to play."

Shinnosuke gulped down the tea in the teacup and said, "His Highness the first prince is twenty years old, and His Highness second prince is already sixteen years old."

"I heard that their father has recently considered finding a teacher for the two of them."

"First, he wanted to teach His Highness the complicated affairs of government affairs."

"Second, he wanted to take good care of His Highness' naughty temper."

"I estimate that there will be news soon."

Looking for a teacher?

This might be an opportunity...

Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes and wrote down the news. He began to plan in his heart.

"How is Asuma recently? He should be going back to take the graduation exam soon."

When Shinnosuke heard Uchiha Tunan mention Asuma, a sad look appeared on his face and he sighed,

During this period of time, he went out to fool around with a few playboys. Last time, I even caught him smoking secretly.

I don't even know how to explain it to Father when I go back.

Uchiha Tunan smiled and comforted him,

"He might just be curious for a moment. It's good that the novelty has passed."
