now he was quite curious about how Mizunuki Ryosuke would handle this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he could see such a good show, Hanzo of the Salamander had no intention of pursuing the girl’s previous offense or Mizunuki Ryosuke’s \"uninvited arrival.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke sat down calmly, not using the kneeling posture, but sitting cross-legged very casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, there was a distance of about one centimeter between Mizunuki Ryosuke and the girl with heaven-defying long legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sized up the different expressions of the two people beside him, his eyes flickering slightly, but the smile on his face did not change at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little Haruko, why are you sitting so far from your husband?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke’s gentle and scholarly voice sounded again, his tone carrying a bit of intimacy, and he placed his gaze on the girl \"Haruko\" beside him, his tone and attitude seeming as if he were really talking to his lover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, a hint of strangeness appeared on Hanzo of the Salamander’s face, and the girl was already too shocked to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hanzo scanned back and forth between the girl and Mizunuki Ryosuke, his expression becoming increasingly strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s facial expressions and actions already showed that what she had just said was absolutely a lie; she was afraid of being exposed by Mizunuki Ryosuke for her lies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Mizunuki Ryosuke actually agreed directly, acknowledging his relationship with the girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of development was this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hanzo of the Salamander felt a bit messy inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention Hanzo of the Salamander, after the girl heard Mizunuki Ryosuke’s words, her heart \"thumped,\" and she couldn't stop wailing inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Undoubtedly, this \"Mizunuki Haruko\" was a name she had made up on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke accurately called out this name, which now seemed full of shame, which meant that from beginning to end, the girl’s words had all been heard by Mizunuki Ryosuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This also completely eliminated the last trace of luck in the girl’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s over, it’s over, it’s completely over!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she didn't understand why Mizunuki Ryosuke didn't expose her on the spot, the girl concluded that this was definitely not a good thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps she was going to be eaten by the Great Demon King!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, Mizunuki Ryosuke wanted her to get close to him; was this him preparing to take action?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How exactly did Mizunuki Ryosuke intend to \"handle\" her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it to tear her apart and bury her in the dirt as fertilizer; or to pull her tendons and bones, and then chop her into meat paste to feed the tigers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terrifying rumors about Mizunuki Ryosuke from the past all flooded into the girl’s mind, causing her inner defenses to collapse completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding the girl’s intense inner battle, it could be seen from her delicate face, which had already wrinkled into a ball; regarding this, Mizunuki Ryosuke was naturally clear at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the girl had not moved for a long time, Mizunuki Ryosuke intended to \"help her,\" so he immediately frowned slightly and made a slight nasal sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just this one sound made the girl’s body tremble as if struck by lightning; immediately, she acted nimbly, moving about one centimeter toward Mizunuki Ryosuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, for the girl, as long as she thought about getting close to Mizunuki Ryosuke, she was naturally ten thousand times unwilling, but hindered by \"pressure\" and \"threats,\" she had to choose to comply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, although she only moved one centimeter, this one centimeter was truly the girl’s limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s actions clearly did not reach the \"expectation\" in Mizunuki Ryosuke’s heart, so his eyebrows furrowed even tighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This slight change naturally fell into the girl’s eyes, and the girl’s heart trembled again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could only helplessly move about one centimeter toward Mizunuki Ryosuke again; regarding the girl’s moving speed, which was like squeezing toothpaste or a snail, Mizunuki Ryosuke was naturally extremely dissatisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So simply, he no longer continued to order the girl, but directly stretched out his sturdy arm and wrapped it around the girl’s slender waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Mizunuki Ryosuke’s arm made contact with the girl’s slender waist, the girl was like a rabbit whose ears had been pinched; her delicate body went soft and weak, and at the same time, her heartbeat was like a drum due to the fear in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Mizunuki Ryosuke’s slight force, the girl’s exquisite and slender body fell completely into Mizunuki Ryosuke’s embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the girl directly closed her large, clear, black-and-white eyes in despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wuwu...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm going to die...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl wailed in her heart, and she had already imagined the hundredth way she would die, not realizing at all how ambiguous the posture of the two was at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s head rested on Mizunuki Ryosuke’s sturdy and powerful arm, and her slender body was curled up in Mizunuki Ryosuke’s embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And a pair of heaven-defying long legs were resting on Mizunuki Ryosuke’s thigh, the ivory-like exquisite luster and slender, perfect curves full of temptation to commit a crime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After holding the girl’s charming body in his arms, Mizunuki Ryosuke held the girl’s waist firmly, not letting her leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must be said that the girl’s soft and glutinous body felt very comfortable in his arms, and at the same time, a faint fragrance came from the tip of his nose; this fragrance, which was like gardenias, should have originated from the girl’s body scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But for Mizunuki Ryosuke, the girl’s mouth-watering beauty was not what he desired; what was important was the major secret contained behind this girl!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke knew clearly in his heart that the value contained in this secret was absolutely far beyond ordinary people’s imagination!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, after this girl full of secrets came into his arms, she was completely his!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, the arc of Mizunuki Ryosuke’s mouth lifted slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, the first thing Mizunuki Ryosuke had to do was to firmly grasp this girl in his own hands, and to do this, the first thing was to prevent Hanzo of the Salamander before him from seeing the value of the secret contained behind the girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, at this moment, the girl was still nominally Hanzo of the Salamander’s captive, and the right to dispose of her was in Hanzo’s hands, not Mizunuki Ryosuke’s here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The relationship between the Rain ninjas and the Mist was sensitive and complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Mizunuki Ryosuke had to be careful about his actions when dealing with Hanzo of the Salamander at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the relationship between the two sides at this moment was clearly not intimate enough to be reckless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also because of this point, in fact, although they were in a state of cooperation, both sides were wary of each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To completely grasp the ownership of the girl in his own hands, the first step was to \"take away\" this girl from Hanzo of the Salamander in a reasonable and legitimate way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps he would have needed to go through some trouble, but the lie the girl told voluntarily, which seemed \"ridiculous and laughable\" and could be poked through with one touch, became the best reason for Mizunuki Ryosuke to intervene.\u003C\u002Fp>",1250,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.539Z","2026-06-17T05:05:38.859Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","a219dd3d0305e5a141791f0030cb807651896db8e386062fc3ac075ad0885290","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-399","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-397",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
