Zongman: I am in Shuchiin, my last name is Uchiha

Uchiha Ling turned his head and looked at Yanyun.

"By the way, Yanyun-chan, I haven't taken you for a walk yet, right? Come on! I'll take you out for a walk today."

Yanyun sauce: “???”

Chapter 50 The Innately Kind Uchiha

Uchiha Ling first brought Yanyun to the vicinity of Fengzhizaki, and then used transformation techniques to disguise himself as a student of Fengzhizaki and sneaked in.

"Class, is Natsume from Class C here?"

Taking advantage of the fact that it was just time for get out of class to be over, Uchiha Ling stopped someone and asked about Ou Doudou.

"Natsume, he asked for leave today. He seems to be sick."

"Sick? Thank you, classmate."

Natsume also took a leave? Given his physique, it should be difficult for him to get sick. It seems that he encountered something unusual.

Uchiha Ling's expression gradually became serious, and he ran back to Aunt Tazi's house as fast as he could.

Just when Uchiha Lin was about to go in and ask Aunt Tachikawa where Natsume had gone, he saw Natsume walking out slowly with the cat teacher.

"Eh? Natsume!"

"Brother Ling! Why didn't you go to school?"

Uchiha Ling put Yanyunjiang down and said, "I should be the one asking you this. I've asked for leave. What's wrong with you?"

Xia Mu's eyes dimmed a little. "Last night, I heard that the house in my hometown might be demolished, so I planned to go back and take a look today."

"Is that so..."

"But I just plan to go back and take a look. After all, I now have you, Aunt Tazi, and Uncle Zi. After I have my family, I will not look back easily."

Uchiha Ling smiled, walked up and patted Natsume's shoulder.

"Since you've already taken leave, this is really a coincidence. Let's go... I'll go back to your hometown with you."

Uchiha Ling, who thought Natsume had encountered a monster, was relieved immediately. Anyway, there was nothing to do today, so he might as well accompany his gentle Ou Doudou to go around.

Natsume's hometown is not in Tokyo, so they plan to take a train there and probably won't be back until the evening.

What Uchiha Ling didn't expect was that the distance to Natsume's hometown was really far, as if it spanned half of the Sakura Country.

I still remember that Natsume once said that he was sent here and there by relatives before finally coming to the Fujiwara couple.

As for why Natsume was disliked by his relatives, it was because of his eyes that could see monsters. However, Natsume did not resent those relatives who disliked him because he had met people who could treat him gently.

The world will never be gentle to people, but gentle people will treat the world well.

Compared to Natsume, Uchiha Ling felt like a bad guy. No! I am a kind-hearted Uchiha, and I am also very gentle, okay!

The two walked behind, and the two cats walked in front. Natsume looked at Yanyun-chan and couldn't help but laugh.

"Mr. Cat, can't you turn around and see what the size of a real cat is? You are already over the standard."

The cat teacher looked at Natsume with disdain, but Natsume smiled and took out a pudding from his bag.

Teacher Cat: "Pudding~!"

The gentle Natsume will definitely give it to herself. The cat teacher quickly came to Natsume's feet, and then saw Natsume open the pudding and put it in front of Yanyun.

Teacher Cat: "My pudding!!"

Yanyun sauce: "Not bad, not bad, it's really delicious."

Seeing Yanyun eating the pudding that originally belonged to him bite by bite, Mr. Cat became nervous. He felt that his family status seemed to have fallen again...

Natsume chuckled and shook his head, then took out the second pudding and placed it in front of the cat teacher.

"Was Mr. Cat jealous just now?"

"Huh? What are you talking about! I'm a handsome and powerful cat teacher, how can I be jealous of a kitten who only knows how to act cute!"

Uchiha Ling looked at the two cats eating pudding, "Natsume, you like cats very much."

Natsume seemed to be reminiscing about the past. "Seeing them reminded me of the cat I met when I was a child."

"It's a very cute cat, about the same size as Yanyun-chan, and it has a special scent of the master."

Uchiha Ling also laughed, "Is it the cat I met when I was a child? It has a scent on its body, so it must be a cat with an owner, right?"

Natsume shook his head. "I don't know. I just remember that when I was the most lonely, it was that cat that hugged me... and made me feel so safe."

As if he had thought of something, Natsume suddenly raised his head.

"That's not a cat! Now I remember, it was the monster in the tree near my hometown!"

When Natsume was a child, he was often seen as a monster, so he was regarded as a weirdo by his classmates. He was also regarded as a burden by his relatives and was constantly sent back and forth.

At an age when he should be playing with everyone, Natsume experienced endless loneliness. Similarly, the monster on the tree seemed to be bored and often teased him.

At that time, after being teased by the monster, he always looked very angry, but now... Natsume looked back on this matter and realized that if it wasn't for that monster, he would have been even more lonely.

Although Natsume was very scared when he was little, he now wants to see her again and say...thank you.

As Natsume continued to talk, Uchiha Ling seemed to understand everything.

"What a gentle monster. At that time, she should have been teasing you and constantly appearing beside you, accompanying you as a monster."

"Well... I don't have any human friends, but I can see the monster on the tree every day. But when I moved away, I didn't say much to the monster."

Natsume wanted to return home as soon as possible. He wanted to find the monster again and say sorry to the monster that he could not understand and hated at first.

"Do you want to go find her?"

Although Natsume didn't say it explicitly, Uchiha Ling had already seen what his younger brother was thinking.

"Well, I'm going to go back to my hometown and find this monster. If possible, I'll bring her back! Brother Ling, do you want to come with us?"

"Of course, I'll go with you."

Uchiha Ling sighed. After seeing Natsume's eyes, he really couldn't refuse.

Because Uchiha Ling understood what Natsume had been through, he had such a gentle look in his eyes.

After buying a ticket and boarding the train back home, Natsume showed an expression of anticipation, but also a hint of uneasiness and fear.

He was afraid that he would never be able to find the monster, and he was also afraid that the monster would feel resentful because he left without saying goodbye.

"After not seeing each other for many years, are you still here?"

Chapter 51 Next, leave it to me

Natsume still remembers that it was when he was in elementary school. It was a roadside cherry tree and a female monster with light green hair.

The monster might be very lonely too. She would sit on the tree bored and watch the children passing by, and occasionally suddenly jump in front of them to scare them.

Unfortunately, no one could see her. The monster on the tree sat on the tree year after year and day after day, observing the people passing by, but no one could find her.

As an elf born from a cherry tree, she cannot stray too far from her body and can only stay on the tree all year round, enjoying her long life while observing the people passing by alone.

Until that day, the monster suddenly appeared in front of a group of children as usual. When everyone else ignored her, a child sat on the ground in surprise.

He... was scared of himself!

The other children turned their heads and stared at Natsume as if he was a monster or an idiot, but Natsume... looked at the monster in front of him with fear.

The monster smiled. She had found an interesting guy. She had also found someone who felt the same way as she did.

After graduating from elementary school, Natsume left the city and was sent to a farther place by his relatives. But the cherry tree monster still sat there, waiting day after day, year after year...

"Why... that little guy didn't come today? Isn't he going to school..."

...

Natsume's hometown is in the countryside. After returning to the home of his adopted relatives to say hello, Uchiha Ling followed Natsume to his former elementary school.

The elementary school where I went for six whole years but didn’t make a single friend.

"Are you sure this is the road from your relative's house to the elementary school? Why didn't we see the cherry blossom trees you mentioned when we walked along this road?"

Uchiha Ling stood at the entrance of the elementary school, while Natsume was constantly reminiscing about the past.

"Maybe the road is under construction. Let's try going back this way."

This country town has been under constant renovation for six years. It took Natsume a long time to finally find the way home.

However, just as Natsume quickened his pace and moved forward, he was stopped by a construction team.

Uchiha Ling stopped a staff member and pointed to the front and asked.

"What are you doing up front?"

"Oh, the road here is already very old. After so many years of wind and rain, it's time to repair it."

Natsume also came up and asked nervously.

"What about the cherry blossom trees planted on both sides of this road?"

The staff member smiled and said, "Of course we dug them all up. Otherwise it would affect the road construction. But we will plant new ones when the time comes!"

All... dug up?

Natsume took a deep breath, "When did this happen? Is the dug up tree still there?!"

"Um... we chopped it down this morning and then dug it up. As for the wood, it should still be in the field. The truck will arrive soon and will help transport the wood away."

Unexpectedly, this worker was so easy to talk to. After he told her everything he knew, Natsume looked at Uchiha Ling anxiously.

"Well, let's go straight in!"

The two people and two cats did not stop at all, but walked straight towards the construction road.

"Hey, two little brothers, the road ahead is a prohibited road. Please take a detour."

Uchiha Ling turned around and cast a few illusions. Then the other party seemed to have not seen them at all and continued to do his own thing.

Where is she? She should be nearby!

It was the first time that Uchiha Ling saw Natsume look so nervous.

Finally, Natsume and the cat teacher stopped under a felled cherry tree. The whole cherry tree was cut into two sections, the huge trunk fell to the ground, and the stump was dug out together with the roots.

Natsume fell into silence, while Uchiha Ling opened his Sharingan, patted Natsume and looked towards the tree trunk.

"Natsume! Look!"

Natsume, who was originally feeling depressed, suddenly looked up, and the familiar fragrance lingered around his nose again.

And inside the broken tree trunk, there was a woman with an illusory body, looking at him in surprise.

Perhaps six years have passed, but the cherry tree fairy still remembers the boy. Even though he has grown up, she still recognizes him at first sight.

"You are... Natsume?!"

Looking at the fairy whom he had not seen for six years, Natsume Takashi walked up to the fairy without hesitation and smiled at her that he had never shown to her before.

Natsume... has grown up. He has become more gentle than before... He must have met someone who is just as gentle, so he has such a gentle smile.

"Natsume! You're back to see me~"

The monster also smiled and rushed towards Natsume. Unfortunately... she pounced on nothing. Because her body had become illusory. Even the monster's entity could not be maintained.

The cat teacher silently stepped aside, and Uchiha Ling did the same.

Natsume: "I've always wanted to say sorry to you, because I was so stupid at that time, and I didn't say goodbye to you in the end. I even resented you, but now, I understand your gentleness, so I will become a gentle person too!"

"But you..."

The cherry tree fairy smiled but said nothing.

The life of plants is tenacious, but also fragile. When the cherry tree was cut down, its roots were pulled out. She could only wait for death to come...

The trunk is not dead yet, but it is beyond repair.

No matter how many springs, summers, autumns and winters have passed, I have never forgotten you. And you also remember me, understand my tenderness at the beginning, and still come to me actively, that's enough. It's enough...
