Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 154 The Girl's Eye Technique: A False Alarm

"Is she trying to trick me?"

Uchiha Gin, who was pretending to be dead, remained motionless with his cold and stiff face. Even though his heart was in turmoil, how could a professional actor be ruined by a single sentence?

"Mr. Yin, do you think I'm bluffing you?"

???

Oh no! While Xiao Zhili was opening a kaleidoscope, she also awakened a mind-reading system, and she now knows exactly what she's thinking.

"I was really sad just now, Mr. Gin~"

It seemed the girl hadn't awakened her mind-reading system. Uchiha Gin immediately breathed a sigh of relief; it was almost another bad point.

Seeing that Uchiha Gin was still pretending, the girl was in no hurry to expose him. Instead, she looked relaxed and continued to stroke Uchiha Gin's curly head.

"Wow~ It feels so good, I've wanted to do this for ages!"

Six years ago, when Uchiha Gin first met her, she was deeply attracted by his unusual curly hair. However, the cautious girl could only bury her feelings deep in her heart. After that, whenever they met, she only dared to imagine it in her mind.

"As expected, Mr. Yin, as long as you persevere, your dreams will eventually come true, won't they?"

After ruffling Uchiha Gin's hair into a messy, disheveled style, the girl whispered in his ear,

A warm, cozy scent, mingled with the unique fragrance of a young girl, left a faint mark on Uchiha Gin's face.

"Heh~ Still pretending?"

The girl glanced at the unmoved Uchiha Gin, chuckled softly, and her eyes held a hint of unease.

Seeing that her words received no response, the girl reached out her playful little hand, brushed it across Uchiha Gin's nose, and let it flow down, grazing his flat chest, before continuing downwards without pausing.

"Mr. Yin, I didn't realize you'd been secretly training all this time!"

A teasing voice rang in his ear, and a pair of small hands pressed tightly against his lower abdomen, her soft fingertips rhythmically playing the piano on his bulging eight-pack abs.

"If you don't respond to me soon, I might get angry!"

Even though his abs were taut and hard, Uchiha Gin, a professional actor, remained lying there without changing his expression. He was gambling that the girl was only acting crazy over her own corpse because of excessive grief.

After all, for the Uchiha clan, this is just basic stuff.

"Mr. Yin, I'm going in now~"

The girl's smile remained unchanged. Since Uchiha Gin was enjoying himself, she would go along with it.

He felt the girl's warm little hand brush across his lower abdomen, deftly unlocking the last line of defense in his lower body.

"Damn it!!!"

Uchiha Gin's terrified voice suddenly exploded in the girl's mind. The intense mental shock made Uchiha Gin dizzy. Fortunately, the girl had just awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, which greatly increased her mental strength. Otherwise, she would have definitely fainted before.

Upon hearing the familiar voice echoing in her mind, Uchiha Rinko paused, a hint of disappointment flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Wow! I was so close, otherwise I would have won!

"Mr. Yin, are you not going to keep up the act any longer?"

After withdrawing the mischievous little hand, Uchiha Rinpoche's gaze returned to its indifferent state, and he began to communicate with Uchiha Gin in his mind.

"Oh dear, if I don't speak up soon, I'll ruin my reputation!"

That was close! I almost made a mistake and lost the banquet!

Uchiha Gin looked shaken. How could he let a young girl take his virginity after preserving it for so many years?

"I had no choice; otherwise, why would Mr. Yin have responded to me?"

The girl answered in her mind, while observing the chat interface in her mind with a curious look.

That's interesting. When I get back, I'll ask Mr. Yin to teach me so I can secretly ask him academic questions privately.

"Who taught you to use this method!"

Uchiha Gin was momentarily speechless. How could such a good kid like Gin know such underhanded methods? Someone must have taught him.

"Uh, yes, it's Mother. There's a book called 'The Secret Techniques of Female Ninjas' under her bed. I learned everything from that book, and this is the first time I've put it to use."

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Gin would ask this question. Uchiha Gin was momentarily speechless, but fortunately, she was naturally quick-witted. With a few words, she came up with a very convincing reason.

I'm sorry, Mother, from now on, our relationship is no longer simply that of mother and daughter.

"Oh dear! Mrs. Yongmei, how can you leave something like that where a child can reach it!"

Uchiha Gin said helplessly that he would definitely have to do a thorough home visit when he got back, and have a long talk with the Uchiha clan about their growth issues in a room.

"Little Zhili, remember your master's words. That kind of move can only be used after you grow up and when you are with someone you like."

In his mind, Uchiha Gin's spiritual form stood up, walked to Uchiha Osamu, patted her head, and earnestly admonished her.

"Hmph! Who told Mr. Yin to make such a joke? If you really died, many people would be heartbroken!"

Although it's a spiritual entity, it still reacts when touched. Uchiha Rinpoche pouted and said angrily.

Hmph! Why are you still treating me like a child?

"Hehe, this is just a temporary measure. My cousins' skills aren't keeping up with the latest version. This script was finalized after repeated discussions. Not bad, right?"

Uchiha Gin smiled. Since Uchiha Rin already knew his secret, telling her wouldn't make any difference.

"Um, can I say it's terrible?"

Upon hearing the smug, curly-haired man's boastful remarks, Uchiha Rinpoche couldn't help but roll his eyes and offer a very fair assessment.

Uchiha Gin, OUT!

"Mmm mmm mmm"

Unexpectedly, his meticulously crafted script was scorned by a teenage girl. Uchiha Gin was immediately devastated and made an "orz" gesture in his mental world.

However, things have come to this point, and the outcome is good. Everyone has learned something, so all the hard work wasn't in vain.

"By the way, Little Administrator, how did you know I was pretending?"

After forcibly comforting himself, Uchiha Gin, having regained some of his composure, curiously asked the girl whose face had returned to its gentle state,

His feigned death skills were unmatched, even by his future cousin. Moreover, none of the other powerful individuals noticed, so how come only this little girl, Uchiha Osamu, discovered it?

"Mr. Ego, to be honest, after I activated the Mangekyou Sharingan you mentioned, I comprehended a very peculiar eye technique within it."

A ninja's trump card is usually not revealed unless he is facing his closest person or a dying enemy (so that he can die knowing why).

The girl trusted Uchiha Gin more than most people, and she hid nothing from him. She then began to explain the eye techniques she had learned.

"The eye technique I see is called 'Xianguo Jade,' and its ability is time reversal."

"Xian Guoyu? Time travel?"

Uchiha Gin was startled, and his brows furrowed. It was another eye technique he had never heard of before, and there was no record of it in the original work.

The girl organized her thoughts and slowly explained her awakened eye technique to Uchiha Gin, word by word.

"Simply put, I can use these eyes to lock onto a specific person or thing, trace back time to find it, and glimpse all the details of what happened before."

After listening to the girl's explanation, Uchiha Gin's brows furrowed as if they were locked with several large padlocks.

If Uchiha Zhi's eye technique was truly as she claimed, wouldn't his secret of time travel be completely exposed? This eye technique caused him immense inner turmoil.

"Then you saw it."

Ultimately, he calmed himself down and cautiously asked the girl, hoping she hadn't seen his secret.

"Xian Guoyu's abilities, although they sound impressive, are not as terrifying as I described."

The girl sensed the hesitation in Uchiha Gin's tone and immediately began to explain.

"I can only see the footage from the first few minutes before it happened; after that, it's all darkness."

Indeed, the girl had subconsciously used "Manifestation Ball" on the corpse, and as a result, the scenes of Uchiha Gin's last few minutes before his death played out frame by frame in front of her eyes.

The girl, who was originally mourning and grieving, saw a continuity error in the scene after Uchiha Gin's death: he secretly opened his eyes and looked around.

The girl, who thought she had misread the scene, risked going blind by watching the footage dozens of times until her eyes started bleeding profusely before she finally stopped.

"ha?"

Upon hearing the girl's words, Uchiha Gin was filled with remorse. He never expected that his small action would ruin the entire show, making him a sinner for all time.

No! I absolutely cannot let anyone else know about this, otherwise my path to becoming a famous director and my honor of third place in the elementary school group will be ruined!

Thinking of this, Uchiha Gin's eyes, which were fixed on Uchiha Ryo, became extremely deep, as if he were brewing some huge conspiracy.

"Small-scale governance~"

Uchiha Gin's eyes shone brightly, his face radiating righteousness, and his tone was firm and unyielding as he addressed Uchiha Zhi, who was still pondering how to coerce him (?).

"You must understand, all the sacrifices I've made are for the future of the Uchiha clan!"

"Now that we've achieved our goal, wouldn't it be alright to tell the young clan leader and the others the truth?"

Uchiha Rin raised his beautiful eyebrows, a hint of enticement flashing in his eyes, but his words were ambiguous.

"Ahem. Actually, it's not necessary to tell them, is it?"

Upon hearing the girl's very rational statement, Uchiha Gin completely overturned his prepared remarks, his tone tinged with timidity.

"Why? If the young clan leaders knew of Mr. Yin's incredibly kind intentions, they would be eternally grateful to you!"

The girl's lips curled into a devilish smile, but her face wore the expression of an innocent child. In a strange tone, she spoke to Uchiha Gin, whose face was covered in cold sweat.

Ugh, why is there no window in this mental space? It's so stuffy I'm sweating buckets!
