And from a distance, after confirming this from the rear field of vision with his white eyes, a cold arc appeared at the corner of Hinata's mouth.

That's right, just like his own efforts, the characters in the original book had better suffer a little bit one by one.

"Hehe~ I feel a little better at last~"

————

Ugh... After all, why do you do such a thing yourself...

Shikamaru gave a big yawn, then rubbed his eyes hard, while staring at the pile of tables and figures in a daze.

Undoubtedly, this is the list used to calculate the sales data of "Fox Talk" in the country of fire. According to the actual number of copies sold and the number of scheduled copies in each region, the most appropriate release sequence is calculated.

These data are undoubtedly quite cumbersome. Even Shikamaru's IQ has to stay up all night to be able to finish it.

"Ala~ Shikamaru? Why haven't you slept so late?"

Nara Shikahisa opened the door of Shikamaru in surprise. It was only when he woke up at night that he found out that the light in his son's room was still lit. This made the father extremely surprised. In his impression, he was an extremely lazy person. My son never stays up late.

"There's no other way... After receiving other people's money, you have to finish the task that others ordered..."

Looking at the calculation data in front of him, Shikamaru tiredly filled in the last calculated number into the table in front of him. Anyway, this chore was finally completed temporarily... Although... according to that woman so far In terms of the motivation and character that has been shown so far, there must be more than one drudgery like this...

No way, the best way is to delay the deadline for completing the task for a few days...

"Huh? It's so rare that someone can buy you off? Well, let me guess, how much did she give you? One hundred taels? Or two hundred taels?"

Lu Jiu was almost amused by his son's words. After all, Shikamaru was only an eleven-year-old kid. It was indeed quite funny to say this kind of 'use other people's money to do things for others'.

"Not much... two hundred thousand taels..."

"Hahaha~ I bought you for only 200,000 taels... poof~!!"

Lu Jiu, who was laughing instinctively, almost choked to death on his own saliva before he finished speaking. Looking at his son with two dark circles in front of him in horror, Lu Jiu chose his own words with difficulty. He is very clear about the character of his son, Shikamaru is too lazy to tell such a meaningless lie. 200,000 taels, this is basically equal to the total profit of the Luwan family's pharmacy in the normal period of two months, even if Lu Jiu wants to make such a huge sum of money, it is not so easy: "Wait. .. Shikamaru? Are you kidding me?"

"No... I'm also wondering why she has to spend a lot of money to invite me to do things... No matter how I look at it, I'm just a kid who hasn't graduated yet..."

Holding his chin feebly, Shikamaru pursed his mouth and looked at his father who unconsciously posed the bottom seat in front of him: "Hey, hey... Dad, it always feels like I'm doing what I did when I was 30. .."

"No...that's what one should do at the age of thirty..."

Glancing at the dense data on Shikamaru's desk, Lu Jiu knowingly didn't ask Shikamaru's work, but raised his hand and pressed his son's head sympathetically: "Try to rest as soon as possible, I will let my mother tomorrow. I'll boil some herbs for you to refresh your mind."

"Ah...good night, Dad~"

Tiredly taking off his clothes and lying on the bed, Shikamaru fell into a deep sleep depressingly.

Z~!

Accompanied by a harsh burning sound, a white smoke came out of the iron casserole in front of Hinata. The sound was nothing but Hinata's left fist that clenched and hit the iron sand.

Even though Hinata had used her maximum strength, her fist still only penetrated the iron sand to a depth of less than three centimeters, and the burning sensation on it made her almost unbearable.

It's still a long way off...

Retracting her left fist, Hinata gritted her teeth and looked at her already red hands. Although she has tried her best to increase the chakra coverage on her hands today, at least it can protect her hands from being scorched. But this whole day of practice has almost exhausted her chakra, and the incidental damage to her hands is second only to severe burns.

"Cough cough~~"

Sasuke's difficult cough came from the side, clutching his left arm. The second young master of the Uchiha family was also exhausted. Like Hinata, he tried his best to strengthen the chakra coverage of his hands. But he still couldn't put his fist into the iron sand.

As for Naruto on the side, it wasn't much different. Compared to Hinata and Sasuke, the golden retriever's fists were already dripping with blood, and even the iron sand in front of him seemed to be a little bloody.

However, on the whole, at least this time is much better than the first tragic situation. At least the three of them have learned to get used to the cruel practice now.

And this is already the fifth day.

"...This is the end of today's training... Pack up, let's eat barbecue."

Walking to the cauldron on the side, Hinata untied the bandages on her hands, and then immersed her hands in the medicinal liquid, stinging the fresh burns with the strong herbal medicine. This doubled pain almost made her snow-white. Cold sweat immediately spread on his forehead.

But fortunately, the therapeutic effect of the medicinal liquid is also very obvious. In the severe sting pain, a cool feeling gradually covered Hinata's hands. These precious herbs are at least much better than the actual medicinal effect, and can quickly Catalytic cell regeneration and enhancement. Of course, this means that when the injury is not too serious, the kind of injury that needs to be hospitalized, like Hinata's first practice, cannot be cured by a medicated bath.

Sasuke and Naruto on the other side also left the iron casserole, and then dipped their hands into their respective pots of medicinal liquid. He didn't say a word. Obviously, Hinata's silent victory during yesterday's treatment made the two teenagers feel extremely dissatisfied.

After soaking for about ten minutes and confirming that the injuries on both hands had basically healed, Hinata exhaled lightly, and then left the cultivation cave first. Cultivation is an extremely physically demanding thing, so she plans to go today. Barbecue house to satisfy cravings.

By the way, it seems like it's time to confirm how the other people are doing.

"Barbecue Barbecue ~ I'm starving to death~!"

Touching his deflated belly, Naruto stretched his lazy waist vigorously. Hinata, who was walking in the front, looked slightly sideways. The barbecue house was on a very busy street. By this time, it was basically dinner time. When passing a shop window, Hinata couldn't help but stop. his own footsteps.

Because of the lighting, the images of the three of Hinata were clearly reflected on the glass window. The costumes of the trio were almost the same as in the original book. Hinata was still in his gray-white coat and rustic black trousers. Sasuke and Naruto are the same short jackets and shorts and orange sportswear.

To be honest... this image is really bad...

Hinata's white eyes were slightly wrinkled. Although she was not a person who cared much about appearances, the current image really made her a little unbearable.

"What's wrong?"

Sasuke frowned slightly. After this period of cultivation and coexistence, he had almost gotten used to communicating with these two 'companions'. Although he still didn't speak much, it was already cold compared to his almost silent attitude in school. So much better.

"You two... have really poor taste in what you wear."

Looking at the reflection on the window, Hinata spoke coldly, but this made Naruto stunned: "Ahhh~ Hinata is too much~! My taste in clothing was carefully selected!"

"Yes~ It's like a talkative orange, it's really suitable for a fool like you."

Sasuke didn't waste the time to dismantle the stage. Obviously, this Erzhuzi had long been unhappy with Naruto's orange tracksuit.

"Shut up the two of you. It seems that you have to get a similar outfit first."

Taking a step back, Hinata looked at the store in front of him. It was obviously a very fashionable store, and the neon sign on the sign showed 'Hongcun Modeling House'. Obviously, this was not just a single store selling clothes. storefront.

"It's boring, the appearance is all right."

Sasuke, with his hands in his pockets, expressed his opinion coolly, while Naruto on one side nodded in agreement: "That is to say~ I'm sorry, let's go to the barbecue house quickly~"

"Shut up! I disdain to continue to comment on your current bad looks. You can have two choices: first, obediently go in with me and change your look. Second: stick to your stupid refusal, and get out now."

Hinata's icy words made Sasuke and Naruto snort unnaturally, and pushed open the door of the modeling house in front of them. Hinata glanced at the modeling house. The environment was clean and there were all kinds of props. It seems to be very complete, whether it is ordinary clothes or some uncommon accessories can be seen in the window.

A middle-aged woman with colorfully dyed hair straightened her waist from behind the counter diligently, and then said sweetly: "Oh~ this lovely lady, and two handsome little brothers, welcome. I'm a stylist. Hiromura Miko, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Ah~ you have a big business."
