Chapter 68: Teaching in Konoha, the System Says I am Tsunade's Student, Chapter 36
Was she too busy with tree-climbing training? Or had she developed antibodies from watching Kitazawa for so long?
"It's better if you give up!"
Sakura Haruno said happily, "Sasuke is definitely mine!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
Ino Yamanaka replied to her and then saw Hinata Hyuga sitting in her seat.
She had already packed her stationery but hadn't left yet.
"Hinata."
Ino Yamanaka took the initiative to speak and asked, "Going home together?"
Because of the tree-climbing training, she had already come to see Hinata Hyuga as a good friend.
"Eh?"
Hinata Hyuga was stunned for a moment, looking a bit flustered, and said, "I... you guys go ahead."
Seeing this, Ino Yamanaka didn't push it and left the classroom with Sakura Haruno.
Hinata Hyuga immediately let out a sigh of relief.
After the classroom was empty, she picked up her schoolbag and went to Kitazawa's office.
A knock on the door sounded.
"Come in."
Kitazawa, who was grading papers, looked up and called out.
"Tea... Teacher Kitazawa."
Seeing him, a faint smile couldn't help but appear on Hinata Hyuga's face.
"Why aren't you going home?"
Kitazawa put down his pen and asked.
"I... well..."
Hinata Hyuga almost had a heart attack upon hearing this, and a blush appeared on her face.
She had followed her habit of running over for lunch, but it seemed Kitazawa didn't have any corresponding arrangements for this noon.
For a moment, Hinata Hyuga felt embarrassed.
"Since you're here, let's eat together."
Kitazawa guessed what she was thinking and said with a smile.
He really hadn't expected Hinata Hyuga to come again this noon.
After all, the afternoon was a holiday, and tomorrow was the practical exam.
"Yes!"
Hinata Hyuga felt a leap of joy in her heart and quickly took off her shoes and walked in.
Seeing Kitazawa grading papers, she sat on the sofa, her pair of white, tender jade-like feet tapping the ground lightly with her mood.
Time reached twelve o'clock.
Kitazawa let out a breath and put down the test papers and pen.
He looked at Hinata Hyuga and found her sitting obediently on the sofa, motionless, like an exquisite doll.
Kitazawa's gaze fell on her snow-white legs.
If she wore white silk stockings... no, no, don't think about it, it's criminal, truly too criminal!
Kitazawa banished the sudden thought from his mind.
The reason was simple: he liked driving big cars.
"Hinata, lunch is ready!"
Kitazawa chuckled and teased.
Hinata Hyuga woke up instantly, jumped off the sofa, and stood straight.
Only after meeting Kitazawa's half-smiling expression did she realize she had been tricked.
Her little face turned red rapidly.
"Let's go, let's eat."
Kitazawa beckoned to her.
Hinata Hyuga suppressed the shyness in her heart and walked to his side.
Kitazawa patted her head and then took her to the Ichiraku Ramen shop.
After eating, Hinata Hyuga returned to the Hyuga clan.
Kitazawa continued his morning work of grading test papers.
Dusk arrived, and all the test papers had been graded, and the rankings had been made according to the scores.
Kitazawa looked at the first-place Hinata Hyuga and nodded with satisfaction.
The special training during this period hadn't been in vain.
The second place was a bit unexpected; it wasn't Sasuke Uchiha, but Sakura Haruno.
But it was also normal, because in the original story, Sakura Haruno was the theory first place in the whole class.
Her ability to be selected for Team 7 had a lot to do with her theory scores.
Besides that, it was her so-called bond with Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.
Kitazawa's gaze moved down, and he soon saw Naruto Uzumaki's name.
Good news: he was no longer the dead last.
Bad news: he was stuck in the middle, at twenty-eighth place.
How should he put it?
There was a lot of room for improvement.
Just then, three lines of text appeared before Kitazawa's eyes.
[Current Mission: Help your lifelong rival Naruto Uzumaki get into the top ten of the class in the next monthly exam.]
[Mission Reward: Yin Release.]
[Do you accept?]
Kitazawa was a bit surprised, but not much.
After all, there had been similar missions before.
But what surprised him was that the requirement this time wasn't second place, but tenth place.
Why did even the system have no confidence in Naruto Uzumaki?
Kitazawa exclaimed, "Good guy."
But from another perspective, Naruto Uzumaki was also the student who started preparing for the next ranking mission the earliest.
*Cough, cough.*
Kitazawa chose to accept the mission.
Having Yin Release would make it more convenient for him to master genjutsu.
