"We meet again, huh? What a coincidence, Shizune."
Haruki's voice startled Uchiha Shizune, who was deep in thought.
"Ah? You... Good morning, Haruki."
[Uchiha Shizune feels fear, harvesting 100 emotion points, current emotion points: 600]
Seeing Uchiha Shizune subtly move away from him, Haruki didn't insist on anything.
"Shizune, you seem to be very afraid of me?"
A mischievous smile played on Haruki's lips.
"Not at all, it's just that I'm not used to being with people."
Uchiha Shizune was a bit timid.
This girl, as expected is still not good at communicating with people.
"Besides Haruki, I wasn't the only one with a long blade yesterday. Why did you choose me?"
Uchiha Shizune was a little curious.
In this dangerous world, Uchiha Shizune could only make herself appear relatively normal.
At least, she couldn't be targeted by this dangerous boy beside her.
"Perhaps, you're cuter?"
"Cuter? Senju Haruki, don't joke around. A genius like you shouldn't be interested in an ordinary person, right?"
Uchiha Shizune immediately waved her hand, but thinking that she seemed to have already been targeted by Senju Haruki, she couldn't help but shiver.
[Uchiha Shizune feels fear, harvesting 100 emotion points, current: 700]
Her father in this world sacrificed himself on the battlefield, and her family only had her mother. According to her memory, it was just an ordinary single-parent family.
"Hmm, you're very right."
"That actually... huh?"
Uchiha Shizune originally wanted to say that she had someone she liked, so that Haruki would give up on her.
But Haruki's answer really made her mind go blank.
"Let's go, it's time for class."
Haruki smiled slightly and led Uchiha Shizune into the classroom.
The tables in the classroom were long, integrated tables, with four seats in the middle and two on each side.
Almost half of the students were already in place. This was a lecture personally given by the Second Hokage.
These students were naturally very enthusiastic.
Upon seeing Senju Haruki, who had stolen the show yesterday enter the classroom, the sound of their discussions instantly quieted down.
"He's here, that kid is here."
"He looks quite handsome, why didn't I notice before?"
"Now it seems we'll have another genius to contend with."
...
Ignoring the discussions around him, Haruki found the seat which was empty.
It was in the very middle of the first row.
Turning back, Haruki began to look for his little girlfriend's figure, clearly noticing that Uchiha Shizune deliberately curled up her body a bit because of his gaze, looking silly.
However, his little girlfriend's seat was a bit far back, the second to last row on the right by the window.
Who arranged these seats anyway??
Haruki cursed inwardly.
The people around him immediately tensed up when they saw Senju Haruki stand up.
"Haruki? Where are you going? It's almost time for class."
Hiruzen Sarutobi beside him immediately spoke up to remind him.
"Handling some business."
Haruki simply replied and walked towards the back of the classroom.
People he passed by lowered their heads, fearing that Haruki would pick on them.
Uchiha Shizune was the same. She only found out what a Hokage was last night when she asked her mother.
Equivalent to the person with the most power in a Village.
And this guy wasn't even afraid of the Hokage. Uchiha Shizune couldn't imagine if she could still live if she got involved with such a dangerous person.
"Hmm, coming for me?"
Danzo Shimura's eyes narrowed slightly. Seeing Haruki heading straight for him, his tone was unfriendly.
He was already dissatisfied with being placed at the back. If Haruki came looking for trouble, he wouldn't shy away from a fight.
His name was Danzo, not a rice ball.
"Whoosh~"
Uchiha Shizune patted her chest. Hearing Danzo's word, she secretly rejoiced that it probably wasn't him he was looking for.
Danzo glanced sideways. He naturally felt Uchiha Shizune's relaxed mood beside him.
This brat wouldn't think Haruki was looking for her, would she? Such a mere brat is truly arrogant.
Influenced by the Senju Tobirama, Danzo had no good feelings for the Uchiha Clan's brats.
Danzo proactively stood up, ready to make the first move
"Haruki, I didn't expect you to be so perceptive, to actually sense my attention on you. A competitor like you... huh?"
He watched as Haruki walked past him without stopping, and naturally sat down in his seat.
Danzo was utterly confused, somewhat slow to react.
Haruki actually ignored him.
"Miss Shizune long time no see, what a coincidence."
Uchiha Shizune blinked. That's right, this silver-haired boy actually sat beside her.
"Haruki..."
"Haruki! What do you mean, this is my..."
"Let's switch seats, I don't like being in the front."
Haruki's calm words successfully made Danzo back down.
"Is that true?"
Danzo was a little surprised. That front seat was a good opportunity to make an impression on Hokage-sama.
"Your father should never deceive you, right?"
"What do you mean? But, um... my father has never lied to me."
"Then that's right, go back to your seat. The teacher will be here soon."
"Then don't go back on your word."
Danzo always felt like he had been taken advantage of, but he didn't mind. Hiruzen Sarutobi, this time I can finally have a good match against you!!
"Miss Shizune, the obstacle is gone now, hehehe~"
Haruki looked at Uchiha Shizune, who was sitting on the very edge of the long bench, and deliberately approached her with a mischievous grin.
"Hi... Haruki, you're too close..."
Uchiha Shizune's eyes were filled with fear.
[Uchiha Shizune is feeling fear, harvesting 200 emotion points]
As expected, she's not good at dealing with people, but teasing her like this is quite fun.
"There's no designated area here, so if that's the case, your activity area is just this much."
Haruki took out a pen and, with Uchiha Shizune sitting upright, drew a line on the chair.
This line forced Uchiha Shizune to the edge, with almost no room to move.
"Hi... Haruki, can you stop bullying me?"
Uchiha Shizune lowered her head, feeling a little wronged, but she didn't dare to speak loudly. Haruki's fierce gaze from yesterday was still vivid in her mind.
[Uchiha Shizune feels fear, harvesting 100 emotion points, current emotion points: 1000]
.....
"Cough cough!! Class is starting, everyone quiet down."
As soon as Senju Tobirama entered the classroom, he saw Haruki bullying Uchiha Shizune at the back of the classroom.
Although, he was a little surprised why Haruki was sitting at the back.
However, this kid was indeed his son, he didn't disappoint him. The evil Uchiha brats should be personally punished.
