*****************
When he came out of Ichiraku Ramen, Colt realized it was snowing outside.
Snowflakes fluttered across the sky and fell on the roofs and trees of the houses, bringing a layer of pure silver to Konoha Village.
Looking from a distance, several Hokage faces on the monument had also changed their hair color with the snow.
Colt thought for a while and walked towards the commercial area.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
This was the first snow of winter, and the temperature was sure to go even lower. People needed to prepare some charcoal at home for the cold months.
In fact, technology in the Ninja World was still quite developed, and many buildings had heating systems. However, the independent house where he lived was very traditional, and he could only honestly make a fire himself.
When passing through a forest, Colt heard the faint sobbing of a little girl, as well as the complacent cries of a few rough-looking children.
"Your eyes are disgusting!"
"Are you actually a monster?"
"You white-eyed monster!"
"Haha, haha!"
Hearing their words, Colt couldn't help but look over.
The girl had short lilac hair, and pure white eyes, with grievance and fear written on her doll- like face as tears involuntarily flowed out.
In front of her, three children smirked at each other, proudly letting out sharp laughter.
"Hyuga Hinata...long time no see," Colt whispered, looking at the crying little girl.
He was thinking about something, but his feet didn't stop.
"Hey, you..."
The first child felt someone calling him and turned his head subconsciously. Boom!
A powerful fist hit him directly in the face, and then he let out a tragic cry.
"Ah! It hurts!"
Seeing their companion squatting on the ground covering his bloody nose, the other two children reacted as well.
"Damn, you actually attacked! You didn't talk and straight up beat him!"
Yelling, they punched at Colt. These children were all five or six years old and thought that numbers were an advantage.
It was a pity that Colt's current physique was comparable to a normal Genin, making it easy to deal with a few children.
As soon as he dodged their attacks, he bullied them back.
One left hook, one right hook.
Boom! Boom!
This time, all three children squatted on the ground, clutching their bleeding noses and bursting into tears.
Hinata, who had been crying while covering her face, stared blankly at the scene not responding until Colt walked in front of her.
"Why are you surprised? Don't you know me?"
Colt looked at the cute Hinata with tears in the corners of her eyes.
Don't talk about it, good-looking people look good even when crying, like Yamanaka Ino for instance.
Hearing his words, Hinata finally came to her senses and thanked him with a blushing face.
"Thank you, Colt-kun."
Obviously, she still remembered him.
"It's good that you remember me. Come to think of it, we haven't seen each other for almost a year. The last time was also in the snowy season."
Colt sighed a little, this was not the first time he and Hinata had met.
A year ago, while running around the village, he accidentally ran into Hinata who had sneaked out of the Hyuga Compound.
Seeing her sitting in the snow crying, Colt had also kindly helped and sent her back to the mansion.
"I'm sorry, Colt-kun." Hinata's voice was weak, poking her index fingers together, "Father has not allowed me to go out at will since last time."
Colt was stunned, he probably guessed something. It must have had something to do with the Cloud Ninja trying to kidnap Hinata. In order to protect her, Hiashi Hyuga simply refused to let her out.
"Woooooo!"
"I'm bleeding, I'm going to find my mother!"
The three children were still squatting on the ground crying. Colt was a little upset hearing
them.
However, he could also use them as an experiment.
"Wait for me now," he said to Hinata, as he walked up to the three arrogant children.
Then their cries grew louder.
"Stop crying, or I'll beat you up again!"
Hearing his threat, the three immediately held back their tears and looked at him without
daring to move.
Those who didn't know thought Colt was the bully.
A cloud of green fluorescence lit up in his hand, and Colt used it on everyone's face.
"I'll spare you this time. If I see you bullying others again, I'll break your legs!"
Feeling that there was no more pain on their faces, the children flashed traces of joy in their
eyes and said respectfully,
"We know our wrongs!"
Then they apologized to Hinata, and the kind-hearted Hinata naturally forgave them.
And a message also appeared in Colt's mind.
[Healing Children x3, Gained Constitution +0.3]
The 0.3 increase to his constitution was not as much as a day's training. However, how long
and how much chakra did he expend to heal these people?
The efficiency was already heaven-defying.
Waving them away, Colt looked at Hinata who was hiding behind him.
Feeling his gaze, Hinata's face immediately flushed, and it continued to spread.
"Please...Colt-kun...don't look at me like that..."
Colt thought.
'What did he do? No, what could he do at his age?'
Hinata's shyness was too exaggerated, just staring caused such a big reaction. What If he
asked her to help him have children in the future...?
Shaking his head, Colt immediately stopped thinking, as if he'd thought too far.
"Let's go, the snow is getting heavier, I'll take you home."
Not knowing she was almost envisioned being a mother, Hinata nodded obediently and
followed Colt.
Along the way, the two did not communicate much. Mainly because he felt that if he said something improper, the Hyuga lady might faint from shyness.
He could be hunted down by the Hyuga clan.
Hinata followed closely behind, even stepping in Colt's footprints in the snow.
This was the second time she had been escorted home by him like this. Thinking of this,
Hinata's little face turned red again.
Looking at the swinging sleeves in front, she wanted to grab them, but her timidity prevented
any action.
Finally, the two came to the gate of the Hyuga Compound.
"Don't make your family anxious, go back quickly, Hinata."
Colt waved his hand and turned to leave.
But Hinata had the courage to ask him, "Colt-kun, can I come play with you in the future?"
Colt nodded, "Of course, but sometimes I have training and things to do, so you may not find me."
He gave Hinata his address and explained the situation. After seeing him agree, Hinata's little face finally showed a smile.
What neither of them knew was that this scene was also seen by an old man who likes to
peep...
