Fugaku's house.

Fugaku is sitting in the courtyard with a tea tray in front of him, while Mikoto is sitting opposite Fugaku.

The kettle puffed, reminding everyone that it was boiling.

After making a pot of good tea, the two of them drank the tea leisurely.

This kind of comfortable life is quite enjoyable for the two of them.

What the two of them didn't notice was that on a big tree not far away, a figure was watching all this.

Inside the indifferent Sharingan, there was a little warmth.

'Tou-san, kaa-san, I am back.'

Fugaku put down his tea cup and said with a smile: "Mikoto, your skill has improved again."

"Haha, after stop working as Shinobi, this has become my new hobby. This kind of plain life is very good." Mikoto said with a smile. It's just that inside that smile, there was a sorrow.

Seeing this, Fugaku asked: "What's wrong?"

"Fugaku, that child, Itachi has left Konoha for eight years. When will he come back? Akatsuki has already attacked Konoha openly. With that terrifying power, is Itachi really okay to be an undercover spy there?" Mikoto asked worriedly.

On the tree, Itachi's body trembled slightly, but soon he recovered his calm.

Fugaku sighed when he heard this and said: "Mikoto, what we can do now is to believe in Itachi."

"But, that child, Itachi..."

Fugaku suddenly said: "Someone is coming."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto immediately withdrew her previous words.

"Tou-san, kaa-san, are you two here?"

The familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voices made Itachi's eyes softer.

The handsome face, the Shinobi's uniform, and Konoha's forehead protector that was worn on his forehead.

That person is none other than Sasuke.

"Sasuke, why are you still at home today? Don't you have to perform mission?" Fugaku asked.

"Tou-san, I'm about to leave."

"Okay, go early and return early."

"Yes, tou-san."

Sasuke left quietly, taking his parents and Itachi's relieved gaze.

The boy back then has gradually grown up.

'Sasuke, you have grown up well.' Itachi secretly thought in his heart, and the smile on the corner of his mouth continued to expand.

And in the next moment, Itachi left.

At the moment when Itachi left, Fugaku looked at the big tree with a puzzled look.

'I seemed to have missed something.'

On Konoha's main street, Itachi changed into a different appearance and walked on the street.

He and Kisame came here three years ago, but after three years, there are a lot of changes in the village.

The previous Pain's invasion also affected this area, and some unlucky shops are being rebuilt.

After walking a few steps, Itachi saw a familiar shop.

Dango shop.

It's not time for meals yet, so the place looked empty.

The familiar scent evokes Itachi's craving.

Without thinking much, Itachi walked towards the shop.

At this moment, a beautiful figure passed by Itachi, and at a faster speed, walked in.

Itachi was taken aback for a moment as he felt that the figure's back looked so familiar.

'Izumi...'

"Boss, is my dango ready?"

"Izumi, you are really punctual as ever."

"That is of course."

"Here you go, the dango you want."

"Thank you boss."

Izumi smiled while holding the wrapped dango.

That look is enough to cause ripples in the hearts of most men.

Izumi took the dango and was about to leave.

But she suddenly found a gaze fell on her.

Izumi looked at the source with some doubts, and saw that it is a young man.

His face was a bit strange, but his eyes gave Izumi a feeling of deja vu.

The two looked at each other. Itachi's eyes are indifferent and gentle, while Izumi's eyes are full of suspicion.

'Why do I have a strange feeling about this person?'

"You are not from Konoha, right?" Izumi suddenly started to ask.

Izumi's direct questioning surprised Itachi, but he immediately said, "Yeah, I am just a tourist."

"Is that so? But why do I feel that you are familiar?" Izumi asked.

"Maybe it is because I am popular." Itachi said with a smile.

"Really?"

Izumi still feels that something is wrong.

Itachi ignored it, walked past Izumi, came to the owner, and said, "Hello boss, I want some dango."

" Okay, wait a minute, it will be done soon."

Izumi looked at Itachi, and said: "Do you like dango too?"

Itachi nodded.

"I have a friend who likes it too."

Itachi was taken aback, and said, "That's a good coincidence."

"Is this the first time you have come to Konoha?"

"No, I have been there many times."

"To come so many times, do you like Konoha?"

"Yeah."

Izumi looked at the person in front of her, and suddenly felt that he was inexplicably similar to Itachi.

If it hadn't been for Izumi to know that Itachi, who is a missing, would not be able to appear in Konoha, he would have thought that this person was Itachi.

"Well, this young man, your dango is ready."

The boss packed the dango and handed them to Itachi.

Itachi reached out to take it, and said, "Thank you, boss."

After that, Itachi walked out of the store.

Seeing this, Izumi hurriedly followed after him.

Itachi was a little confused and said: "Young girl, why are you following me?"

A blush appeared on Izumi's face. After all, it was really embarrassing to suddenly follow a strange man like this.

"That, aren't you a tourist? There must be a lot of things you don't know about Konoha, right? How about I become your tour guide?"

Itachi was taken aback. He never expected that Izumi would make such a request.

"In that case, I will trouble you." Itachi said with a smile.

Itachi didn't know why, but the refusing reply in his mouth can't come out, and it suddenly turned into agreement.

When Izumi heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief.

'If I was rejected, it would be too shameful.'

"Yeah, let's go."

Izumi led the way, explaining Konoha's history and culture to Itachi, as well as some legends.

Not long after, the two walked to a pond.

When Izumi looked at the pond in front of her, she couldn't help but was stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect to walk to this place unconsciously.

"What is this place?" Itachi asked with a smile.

"Sorry, this is actually the place where I used to eat dango for the first time with a friend. I didn't expect to come here unconsciously. Maybe it's because you are somewhat similar to him so I was treating you like him." Izumi said with a smile.

Hearing this, Itachi's heart shook slightly.

'This silly girl.'

"Is that person important to you?"

Izumi lowered her head when she heard Itachi's question. A trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.

"Yeah, he's very important. He is my most important person."

"Really?"

Izumi nodded heavily, and then said: "It's a pity that he has gone and never came back. I don't know if I can see him again in this life."

After Izumi said that, her expression became even sadder.

"Maybe he will come back one day." Itachi said with a smile.

"Really?" Izumi looked at Itachi and said in a low voice.

"Yes, it will definitely be."

Itachi said, and handed the dango to Izumi.

Suddenly, Izumi seems to see the familiar face again.

"Itachi..."
