I'm in the Dragon Clan, bound to the Naruto Counterattack System

Ahmed helped everyone carry their luggage into the hotel and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Rest at the hotel for a day first. We'll drive to Abu Simbel Temple tomorrow morning. We should be able to finish the mission in about a morning. I've already put the diving and transmission equipment at the temple. You can just go directly there when the time comes."

"Thank you for your hard work." Shudeya bowed slightly to express her gratitude.

Ahmed scratched his head and chuckled, "It's nothing. After all, I'm practically a host, so I'll definitely make sure you're all taken care of."

Cheng Sui lay on the soft bed and stretched comfortably.

He shared a room with Ye Sheng, while Jiu Deya Ji had a separate room.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. Please make yourselves at home," Ahmed said, turning to go to his room to rest.

Watching Ahmed leave, Cheng Sui turned to Ye Sheng, who was packing his luggage, and said, "I felt something was strange before, and now I finally understand why."

Ye Sheng loosened his tie and raised an eyebrow: "Junior brother, what did you discover?"

Cheng Sui picked up the bottled water from the bedside table, took a sip, lay down on the bed, leaned against the wall, and began to analyze.

"Look, Ahmed didn't come to Cairo before, and his explanation to Professor Mans was that his son was sick and he couldn't leave. But it's about a three-hour drive from here to the Abu Simbel temples, and he chose to stay next to us. So who will take care of his son during this time? Why isn't he worried about his son's illness now?"

Ye Sheng changed into a loose-fitting outfit and said thoughtfully, "Perhaps his son's condition has stabilized, or someone else is taking care of him. But it's always better to be cautious."

"I don't know what illness his son has," Cheng Sui said.

Ye Sheng patted Cheng Sui on the shoulder: "The Secret Party has been trying to control Kassel College for years, and there are many factions within the Executive Department. You never know when someone might betray you while you're on a mission."

"So, this Egyptian might also betray us?"

"That's why we need you, junior brother," Ye Sheng smiled. "You were recommended by Principal Angers, so Aki and I trust you completely. After we go into the water, our safety is in your hands."

"Don't trust me so much, I'm under a lot of pressure." Cheng Sui shrugged.

"Being alone in a foreign land, and considering we're from the same hometown, I'd definitely trust you the most."

"What about Aki-senpai?"

"Ahem, Aki has been working with me for so many years, so she's still a little bit ahead of you, junior brother."

"..."

As night fell, Cheng Sui and Ye Sheng lay in bed, neither of them able to fall asleep.

Moonlight streamed through the sheer curtains, illuminating the ceiling. Cheng Sui stared at the spots of light and couldn't help but ask, "Senior Brother Ye, when are you planning to confess to Senior Sister Aki? You can't keep putting it off like this."

Ye Sheng sat up, using a pillow as a backrest: "Junior brother, do you know what it feels like to be in the water?"

"I don't know," Cheng Sui answered honestly.

He brought up this topic not because he wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with Ye Sheng in the middle of the night, but mainly to test when Ye Sheng planned to confess to Aki, so that he could complete his mission sooner.

Ye Sheng stretched out his palm and watched the moonlight shine through his fingers.

"Underwater, there was nothing around my body except seawater. It felt like I was floating in space. The visibility was less than a meter. There was endless darkness all around me. The only thing I could touch was the girl beside me. Holding her hand and feeling the warmth from her palm, my heart calmed down."

"Senior, you're just like a high school boy experiencing his first crush, telling your roommate about the girl you have a crush on, saying you'll definitely marry her someday, but you only dare to steal a glance at her when you pass by her classroom window."

"Maybe," Ye Sheng lay down, covering half of his body with the blanket. "Men are boys until they die. Maybe deep down I'm actually a pure-hearted high school boy."

"Forget it, a pure-hearted boy in high school wouldn't stand at the finish line during swimming class and pat his butt to mock the girl he likes for swimming too slowly. Actually, you're pretty twisted too, senior."

Ye Sheng blushed: "How come Aki told you even this?"

"Actually, it was Nono who told me. I think it was Aki-senpai who told her privately."

Ye Sheng put his hands behind his head and hesitated before saying, "There's another reason why I don't dare to confess. I'm not sure what kind of feelings Aki has for me. What if I confess and fail? Wouldn't that be quite embarrassing?"

"Of course you like her. You probably didn't notice that you were drunk the night you left Kassel College, but Senior Aki's eyes were practically drooling over you."

Cheng Sui now desperately wants to drag Ye Sheng to Jiu Deya's room to confess his feelings.

How can someone so old be so stubborn? How am I supposed to complete my task if you keep acting like this?

Ye Sheng sighed and didn't say anything more.

"Senior, do you snore?"

"I won't fight."

"Oh, then you should go to bed early. My roommate says I snore."

"..."

the next day.

Ye Sheng slowly woke up from his bed and found that Cheng Sui's bed was empty. He rubbed his slightly messy hair, squinted his sleepy eyes, and started brushing his teeth.

"Junior brother?"

Ye Sheng walked to the balcony and looked at Cheng Sui on the balcony. His eyes went from sleepy to clear-headed and then to terrified.

In the morning sunlight, Cheng Sui, shirtless, gripped the balcony railing with his bare hands and did handstand push-ups on it.

Beneath his seemingly slender frame lies a body of well-defined muscles, resembling an ancient Greek sculpture under the sunlight.

It should be noted that Ye Sheng and Cheng Sui's room was on the tenth floor, and the balcony was dozens of meters above the ground.

Cheng Sui had not prepared any safety measures. If he fell, there would be four or five Cheng Suis in total, not by using the clone technique.

Upon hearing Ye Sheng's voice, Cheng Sui exerted a little force with both arms and leaped off the railing, landing silently next to Ye Sheng.

He picked up a towel to wipe his sweat and said nonchalantly, "I'm used to morning exercises, so I couldn't resist doing a little workout."

Ye Sheng's lips twitched: "Junior brother, are your daily training sessions always this insane? I'm not jealous at all that you're getting stronger."

"Senior, this is youth, you wouldn't understand."

Cheng Suichong and Ye Sheng gave each other a thumbs up, then turned and walked into the bathroom.

Actually, his morning exercise wasn't as scary as it looked. He had attached chakra to his hands, and his palms were firmly attached to the railing as if they were glued on with super glue. He wasn't worried about falling at all.

Even if he falls, with his physical abilities, he can easily adjust his posture in mid-air and use his chakra to absorb the buildings during his descent to stop falling. At the very least, he can use the recoil force of the Vacuum Ball as a buffer just before hitting the ground.

A moment later, Cheng came out of the bathroom and changed into clothes suitable for movement.

Ye Sheng had already washed up and put on a tight-fitting suit for diving, then casually put on a casual outfit over it.

"Let's go, let's go to the temple now, and get it done quickly so we can get some rest."
