"Hmm, the fish balls in Kirigakure really taste great."
On the streets of Kirigakure, Seisuke, who had run out of the hospital for a stroll, was walking around while munching on fish balls. To be honest, the fish balls here were delicious, but as for the scenery, it was constantly shrouded in fog, and he could barely see anything, so he didn't have the mood to keep exploring.
After buying a big bag of fish balls, he left.
He was currently staying in the hospital. By simply transforming into an injured patient and lying on a hospital bed, no one could recognize him.
Recently, there had been more Kirigakure Anbu searching for him, but they still didn't dare to make it public for fear of causing unnecessary panic.
"Burp～"
After the stroll, he returned to the hospital and continued to act as the cleaner.
As he was mopping the floor, although the smell of disinfectant covered it up, there was still a faint smell of fish balls on him.
Bang!
A figure crashed into him from behind, knocking him straight out.
"That hurts!"
"Ah! I'm so sorry, sir. Are you okay?"
The nurse was in a flurry, constantly apologizing as she quickly helped Seisuke up.
"It's okay, it's okay."
Seisuke picked up the medical records on the ground and handed them to the young nurse. As he saw one of the records, he narrowed his eyes.
"Jinin Akebisa... This guy is injured too?"
This was the one who got away. If it weren't for his quick escape last time, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist would have been completely wiped out. Unexpectedly, this guy was also injured and in the hospital. This was a great opportunity.
He quickly memorized the information on it and, without showing any sign, handed the medical record back to the nurse, saying with a smile, "Be careful. You can't rush around in the hospital corridors."
"I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! But I'm in a hurry. I'm sorry. I'll treat you to a meal next time!"
The young nurse was very busy. She picked up the sorted medical records and left in a hurry.
Seisuke didn't mind. He picked up the bucket and the mop and returned to the storage room.
He quietly entered the women's restroom. Soon, a plump female nurse came out.
"My shoulders are so sore. I should have made myself flatter. I hope the kids of the nurse sister in Konoha won't go hungry."
This appearance and figure were modeled after the most popular female nurse in the Konoha Hospital.
He came to the pharmacy. The head nurses were walking around, extremely busy. An older nurse stopped him and said, "You, take this to Miss Terumī's ward. This is her medicine for today."
"..."
"Yes."
He took the medicine and left in a hurry.
As he walked, his graceful figure attracted the attention of many injured Kirigakure ninjas.
"Ouch, the stitches came loose." A Kirigakure ninja let out a scream.
"Wait, isn't the place you sewed..."
"Yeah, that's the place where the stitches came loose! Go call the doctor for me quickly!"
There was a commotion. He made his way with ease to the door of Mei Terumī's ward.
What was this?
Why did he end up here again?
He composed himself and pushed the door open. "Excuse me, Miss Terumī. This is your medicine for today."
"Oh, thank you. You two can go out too. I need to change my dressing."
"Yes, Lady Mei."
There were two other people in the room, Mei Terumī's previous two teammates.
Takeshi Kaguya was wrapped in bandages, while Gengetsu Hozuki didn't seem to have any obvious injuries, but he looked listless, with dark circles under his eyes.
They had also been injured before, but not as severely as Mei Terumī. They had been on missions recently and took the time to come and see her.
When Seisuke saw Gengetsu Hozuki, the appearance of his mission target made him quite happy, but he didn't show it on his face.
Gengetsu Hozuki and Takeshi Kaguya took a glance at him and then left.
Seisuke was puzzled. The nurse he transformed into was supposed to appeal to many people's preferences. How could these two be indifferent?
Was it like he had two hot - water bags on his chest?
He put the medicine on the bedside and was about to leave when Mei Terumī asked, "Where are you going? I can't apply the medicine by myself."
Apply... Apply the medicine?
His body stiffened, but he maintained a smile. "I'm sorry, Miss Terumī. I'm new here today. Because it's so busy, the head nurse sent me here. I didn't think it through. May I ask where you're injured?"
Mei Terumī didn't think much of it and said with a smile, "It's okay. My back is injured. Please help me."
"Back, back, back. Got it."
What should he do? He was so nervous!
Mei Terumī smiled and turned her back to him, taking off her hospital gown, revealing her white shoulders and slender arms. Other than that, the rest of her body was wrapped in bandages, and nothing else could be seen.
"Please help me."
Saying this, she turned her back to Seisuke and started to untie the bandages. Seisuke, who had been having some inappropriate thoughts, immediately put them aside when he saw the hideous wound on her back.
The wound was deep enough to expose the bone. It was only a little bit away from hurting the spine.
The person who could injure Mei Terumī like this should be a powerful ninja from Konoha.
Mei Terumī said with a bitter smile, "Those jounin from Konoha were too strong. My team and I encountered them. We used all our strength to kill them, but we were more or less injured. I was the most severely hurt. Will it leave a scar?"
Girls cared a lot about this. Seisuke said, "If it's not treated properly, it will leave a scar. But don't worry. Trust the doctor."
"Okay, please help me apply the medicine."
She lay on the bed, exposing her back. If Seisuke wanted to, he could have easily attacked and killed Mei Terumī at this moment.
However, he suppressed this thought.
After all, she had saved his life, so he couldn't harm her.
He wiped the wound with a cotton ball soaked in medicine. Mei Terumī broke out in cold sweat from the pain. Seisuke said softly, "Be good. It doesn't hurt. Just endure it for a while."
He applied the medicine to Mei Terumī as quickly as possible. And then it was time to... wrap the bandages...
Ah...
He was at a loss for a moment. What should he do?
No, he was a girl now!
What's wrong with a girl changing bandages for another girl?
No, there was nothing interesting about a flat chest.
Thinking like this, he calmed down, as if nothing could disturb him.
Well, a flat chest couldn't distract him!
The Mei Terumī who would become a great ninja in the future was also flat - chested when she was young.
The growth of humans was really amazing!
He was a bit flustered as he wrapped the bandages for Mei Terumī.
After putting on the hospital gown again, Mei Terumī said with a smile, "Thank you so much. What should I call you?"
"It's nothing. You can call me Kiyoko."
"Okay, thank you, Sister Kiyoko."
"This is what I should do. Saving lives is the duty of a doctor." He smiled and tidied up the blood - stained gauze, and was about to leave.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Excuse me."
A young man walked in. He had a blue spiky hairstyle, amulet - like earrings hanging from his ears, and an eye - patch covering his right eye. He had a square face and looked around twenty - something.
Seeing the person, Mei Terumī said in surprise, "It's Aoba. What's the matter?"
Aoba smiled and said, "I heard you were injured. I didn't have the time before. Now I'm here to see you."
