"Hey, don't go!"
Satoru doesn't want to use force here, but these people were just too difficult to deal with.
He turned around a few times, but no matter where he was, there seemed to be people around him.
At this moment, Satoru's gaze suddenly found a familiar face.
The person panicked and wanted to avoid the group of people, but the street was already blocked, and she was also involved.
Satoru saw the right opportunity, pulled her into his arms, and said loudly: "I just want her, everyone leave!"
The person who was pulled into his arms subconsciously wanted to struggle, so Satoru lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Shh, be quiet."
"Sen... Sensei."
Sakura was surprised to find that the person holding her was actually Satoru.
Her flustered mood was suddenly stabilized after this realization, she was no longer afraid, instead, she obediently snuggled into the Satoru's arms.
Satoru's embrace gave her an indescribable sense of security.
Others laughed when they saw that Sakura was a stranger and looked like a minor.
"She looks quite young, doesn't she?"
"That's right, I didn't expect onii-san to like this style."
"If the onii-san likes this kind, I also have it in my store!"
One of the reasons they were laughing was because Sakura was wearing a ninja outfit and had such innocent goofiness on her face. There were also children of this age in this flower street, but after a long time in this "romantic" place, their faces could no longer show a trace of innocence, and even if there were, they were very fake.
"I know her, that's why I want her!"
After Satoru spoke, he forced his way out of the crowd.
This time he used a little bit of chakra, most of the girls there had no fighting power, they were easily dismissed by him, and then watched him leave from there at a very fast speed with regretful eyes.
"Why are you here?"
After walking to a street corner with few people, Satoru let go of Sakura and asked.
"We came to look for you, because we heard that the situation in Kirigakure is very special, but we travelled slowly. This is the only place where people can stay while traveling through this route, but after entering, we found that this place is not very—ahem children-friendly."
Sakura blushed and didn't dare to explain any further with words.
Even though she was a little girl, she doesn't know everything. When she passed by some flower houses, she could hear some ambiguous moans, sound of laughter and clinking glasses.
Satoru knew from her appearance, but he didn't want to talk about such things with her, so he could only change the subject.
"Okay, what about Naruto and Sasuke?"
Mentioning the two, Sakura grabbed Satoru's arm on the spot.
"Sensei, I got separated from them, there are too many people here, let's hurry to find them!"
"Finding people here is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack."
Satoru turned his head to look out of the alley, and Sakura followed suit.
Indeed, it was very lively, everyone's face was flushed, and it was not known if it was because of the wine or something else.
"Then what shall we do?"
"Find a place to live first, and talk about the rest later."
Naruto and Sasuke's strength was growing rapidly now, he was not worried about the personal safety of those two.
The two searched around for a few times, and finally found a hotel with a sign "This store is only for drinks and stays, nothing else" hanging on the door.
Although there were often beautifully dressed women and samurai with open chests coming in and out, it still looked not so serious place, but compared with other places, it was already considered moderate.
Satoru wanted to go in, but was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"My guest, we don't accept guests under the age of sixteen."
"Why?"
"Because it's not safe."
The boss was honest, and this could be regarded as an admission that his hotel indeed had some incidents of not very rule abiding customers.
But Satoru still insisted on staying in, "With me by her side, she is very safe."
"Although you are indeed in great shape, how can I trust you?"
"I'm Konoha's ninja, the teacher of the seventh squad, Elite Jonin Yagyu Satoru, since this is the junction of the three nations, just ask any know-it-all, and you should be able to get my information."
The boss was stunned for a moment, seeing that Satoru didn't look like he was lying, he looked left and right, and finally gave way.
"Come in, I'll only keep you overnight, leave quickly tomorrow morning."
"Thanks."
It was too late now, and there was only one vacant room left in the whole hotel.
When Sakura heard this, she blushed behind Satoru, but Satoru didn't seem to care at all, he took the key and went upstairs naturally, Sakura could only follow quickly.
When they got to the room, Sakura sighed, it was reeking the smell of alcohol everywhere.
"I don't like this kind of place."
"Then go to bed quickly, get enough energy and get ready to leave."
"What about Naruto and Sasuke? What about them?"
"I'll find them, you sleep."
'According to what he said, does that mean he won't sleep?'
Sakura originally thought that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity might be able to get closer to her teacher, but after thinking about it, the timing was too bad, so she had to forcefully clear the redundant thoughts in her mind, move out the bedding and spread it on the tatami mat.
She also made a bed for Satoru, right next to her. When she lay down, although what she saw was the empty bed on the ground, it also made Sakura feel an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
This was very good, this is already something she didn't dare to hope for before.
Sakura slowly fell asleep, while Satoru was drinking on the fourth floor.
The wine there tasted good, thanks to the fierce competition in that area.
Satoru threw the peanuts in his mouth and ate them while thinking about the recent things in his mind.
He tried to find some clues from what he had seen and heard, and tried to connect everything together.
However, there were still too few clues, and even his current suspicion had no real evidence.
It was already late night without knowing it, and seeing that the time was almost up, Satoru thought that Sakura should have fallen asleep, so he was going to go back to the room and take a nap.
But when he pushed open the door, he found that Sakura's window was empty.
Sakura was gone!
In addition to the smell of wine, there was a very peculiar smell in the room, but it dissipated as soon as the door was opened, and he didn't even had the time to catch it.
"Boss! Boss!"
Satoru hurried downstairs to find the boss, who was propping his chin, as if he was about to fall asleep.
Being slapped so hard by Satoru on the table, his heart almost jumped out.
"Hey, guest, you almost scared me to death, what's wrong, this is… ah!"
