Island Tour

After reaching a temporary settlement with the little girl, Haru first went to the village to meet Yuma and was warmly welcomed again.

However, after hearing that Haru was going to live in Uzushiogakure recently, he could not help but feel a little regretful. It was obvious that the thought was not real, which made Haru a pain in the ass.

Then Haru went back to Uzushiogakure, which made both Ashina and Shima relieved.

If he really could not return, they would really take people to break into the temple.

However, if that happened, they wouldn't be able to stay here any longer.

However, when he found out that Haru had met God of the Sea and had even gotten a job, he became even more surprised!

However, he didn't say much. He enthusiastically asked Haru to stay here and even gave him a house.

It was only until the evening welcome meeting ended that everyone went back to sleep. Ashina didn't ask him why he was here.

Sometimes, not speaking was actually a kind of answer.

After all, Haru had already said it very clearly before. In addition, there was also a letter from the waterman, so the two sides should be well aware of his intentions.

But now, it seemed that he really might have to return empty-handed.

The night was silent.

The next day, Haru did not take the initiative to mention this matter. Everyone had a some understanding and did not speak.

Meanwhile, the little girl, Kanna, came jumping over alone.

"Big bad guy, come out quickly. We are going to patrol the island!"

Because this matter had already been told to Ashina and the others, the atmosphere this time was no longer tense. On the contrary, because the aunt liked the little girl's cuteness, she took some snacks that her family made for her.

The little girl probably had never experienced this kind of thing before, so she immediately turned from arrogant to helpless and uneasy.

She wanted to eat but didn't dare to eat. She didn't even know where to put her little hands.

At this time, the little girl's savior finally appeared.

Haru directly put the snacks that everyone sent into a basket, and then stuffed them into the little girl's arms. Then he took the opportunity to touch the little girl's head.

"Let's go. It's the first day of work. We can't be late. Remember to thank uncle and aunt."

"Thank you, uncle and aunty..." After a short period of hesitation, the little girl followed suit and thanked them. Then, she carried a basket of delicious food and caught up with the big bad guy in front of her with her short legs.

She was so happy that her eyes became crescent moons. She even forgot to be angry about being touched by the big bad guy.

"By the way, why don't I see Dori? Are you alone?"

The little girl was still immersed in the joy of someone giving her a basket of snacks. She casually said, "Dori has gone to patrol the sea. You can follow me for the next few days."

Haru did not care. She just felt that the God of the Sea was somewhat big-hearted. She was wearing such a beautiful dress, but her daughter was wearing a coarse linen dress. She stayed in the gorgeous palace all day long to sleep, but her daughter was playing around outside every day. She even called herself the gatekeeper.

What was even more outrageous was that even though the little girl had been forbidden from coming into contact with humans in the past, now she was at ease to let her daughter stay with a human who had a previous 'history', which was really too odd.

If not for the fact that the little girl could also transform into a mermaid, he would really doubt whether these two were really mother and daughter.

There was too much difference in every aspect, completely different.

Haru couldn't figure out whether the God of the Sea was too confident or if he really didn't care about the little girl.

It can't be a split personality, right?

"What are we going to do now?"

The little girl stammered for a long time but did not say anything. Then, her big eyes suddenly turned and said, "The patrol island is a very dangerous activity, so I need to do a few tests on you first."

Haru looked at her with interest. He did not say anything and said, "What test?"

The little girl pointed to the small forest in front of her. "In a while, I will hide inside. If you can find me, even if you pass the first test, this is to test your observation. Yes, yes, the most important thing in the process of patrolling the island is observation."

After saying that, the little girl could not help but be proud of her witty reaction.

However, under the meaningful gaze of a certain someone, the little girl, Kanna, suddenly felt a little guilty and blushed. Her eyes were fleeting, and then she reacted. She immediately bared her teeth and showed a fierce but stupid expression. "What kind of look is that? Do you think I will lie to you?"

Yes!

And it was all written on her face.

Haru laughed, but he said seriously, "Observation, what you said just now, so I was just trying to admit that I was really observing you."

The little girl immediately blushed and continued to say fiercely, "Turn around and count a hundred numbers with your eyes closed. You are not allowed to peek!"

Under the little girl's nervous and expectant eyes, Haru did as she was told. Then, the little girl could not hide her excitement and ran into the small tree forest to hide.

She had seen many children playing this game before. It seemed to be called hide-and-seek.

She had always wanted to play it once, but her mother did not allow her to touch these humans. The only people who could play with her were Grandpa Turtle and Dori. However, Grandpa Turtle was old and ran too slowly. Dori did not even understand a hundred figures.

But now, someone could finally play with her!

This was also why she came alone to find the big bad guy today.

There was actually no need for patrolling the island, because if there was a conflict that needed them to resolve, there would definitely be people heading to the temple, and it would be the same if they rushed over.

There was no need for them to resolve the conflict, and even if they met them, they would immediately reconcile.

So to put it bluntly, the little girl wanted to use this opportunity to play for a few days.

Haru had already seen through this point, but he couldn't see through it.

In any case, it was only five days. It didn't matter whether these five days were patrolling the island or playing games.

After five days, he would lay his cards on the table with the people of Uzushiogakure.

At that time, no matter if anyone was willing to go with him, he was ready to leave.

So he just took it as relaxing.

".. 98, 99, 100!"

"I'm coming in!"

Before entering the small tree forest, Haru did not forget to remind the inside of the forest loudly. Then, he began to search casually.

However, the development of the matter was beyond his expectations.

As he was walking, he suddenly shouted, "Come out, I found you!" When he was walking, a little girl suddenly fell from a tree.

"Ouch!"

The little girl got up and rubbed her butt hard. She widened her eyes and asked, "How did you find me? I hid myself so well!"

Haru was speechless. How the hell would I know? I was just kidding. In the end, you were so scared that you fell off the tree. How could you ask me how I found out?

There was a sense of deja vu that you fell down before I even made a move.
