Children around the age of six or seven do not know much about the world of adults, and they just learn the vocabulary that adults speak with a little understanding.

Futaba Tsumugi didn't fully understand what "shocked" words he said, but instead nodded complacently.

"illegitimate child?"

Nagi seems to have heard,

"It's not a nice identity, is it?"

Makoto Ito knew what he meant, but he was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to say it.

"That's it...Xiaomei..."

Tsumugi put his hands on his lips, and whispered in the ear of Miyuki,

"Your father cheated, and then you had an illegitimate child."

"What is cheating?"

Although Xiaomeiyuki is smart, she doesn't know much about these things.

"It's that your father fell in love with other women behind your mother's back, and then secretly gave birth to other children."

"what……"

The always calm Miyuki couldn't help but let out a loud cry, and immediately realized that peeking at others was still attracting attention, and hurriedly pulled Futaba Tsumugi aside and asked eagerly,

"Is what you said true?"

"If that Haruki is so similar to your father, then it's probably true... But it would be bad if your mother found out."

"But isn't Haruki an orphan? Without parents, how could he be an illegitimate child?"

"Because it is an orphan, it is possible to be an illegitimate child and cannot be known by others, so he was abandoned in an orphanage."

"That's... it's impossible..."

Miyuki secretly observed that Haruki from the crack of the door again, and the more she looked, the more she felt that Futaba Tsumugi made sense.

"what do I do?"

Tsumugi Futaba replied:

"Xiaomei, you have to deal with it carefully, it's best not to let your mother know."

"To keep it a secret?"

"certainly."

Xiaomei hesitated,

"But... someone will find out. What if someone tells my mother?"

"Then you secretly tell your father first and deal with it quickly..."

"is this okay?"

Xiaomei was a little uncertain.

"Don't worry, as long as you don't expose it, you should be fine, and it's fine to have an extra brother out of thin air!"

"elder brother?"

Miyuki, who has always been the boss, was a little concerned about this title, but after hesitating for a while, she still said firmly,

"No, I must have a good talk with my father..."

In addition to doing housework all day, my father just basks in the sun and sleeps late. I really can't believe that he will betray his family.

Although he is a useless father, he wouldn't do such a thing... With a heavy heart, Miyuki and her friends returned to the classroom.

The customs and habits of the ninja world are still very conservative. Because of the particularity of the profession of ninja, the personality is extremely public, and there are many cases of cohabitation before marriage and pregnancy before marriage.

However, once a relationship is established or even a marriage is established, there are very few cases of cheating or even divorce. It is not impossible to have illegitimate children, but it is absolutely rare to have children after cheating in marriage.

...

In the next course, Xiao Meiyu basically did not listen to it, and was disturbed by the "illegitimate child" and "father cheating".

"If it's true, what should I do? 』

Miyuki, who made up his mind to figure things out, has already decided that if his father makes a mistake, he must teach him a lesson. In addition, if Haruki is really a half-brother, what should he do?

Having been the only daughter for so many years, Xiao Meixing was also a little worried when she thought of having a brother who shared her doting favor.

After finally making it to the end of school, Xiaomei fortunately hurried home regardless of her friends' greetings.

She hurriedly pushed the door open, and Xiao Meiyuki saw her father sitting on the window sill leisurely reading a book at a glance.

"Xiaomei, you're back! Do you want to eat an apple? I've prepared it for you..."

Putting down the book in his hand, Shui Mu got up with a smile and took his daughter's heavy schoolbag.

"I'm not hungry now!"

Xiaomeiyuki put the baby bear into the carefully prepared nest, and then took Mizuki's hand with a serious face.

"What, do you have something to tell me? Did you get into trouble at school with such an ugly expression? Don't worry, your father and I are a big man with a big face and a big face. I can settle any trouble, and no one dares to give me face!"

"We'll talk about this later!"

Miyuki's face was stern,

"Today I saw a student who looks very much like me, a little older than me! Tsumugi said that it might be my half-brother, and also said that this matter should not be disclosed to my mother! Is what she said true? of?"

"what……"

Mizuki smiled in surprise.

"Why do you think so? I'm loyal to your mother, how could I cheat? It's even more impossible to have an illegitimate child."

Miyuki was a little suspicious,

"Why is that Haruki so similar to me?"

"It looks like there are many reasons, it's very likely just coincidence."

Mizuki stepped forward and pinched Xiao Meixing's stern face, and replied with a smile,

"Little guy, what are you thinking? Just want a big brother?"

"would not……"

Little Meiyuki pouted and pushed away Mizuki's mischievous hand,

"I just don't want my mother to be sad..."

"If you don't trust my father so much, you're not afraid of my sadness? I've never lied to you..."

"yes?"

Xiao Meiyuki thought about it for a while, and it seems that his father really never told a lie except for bragging.

"Well then, I'll make it hard to believe..."

"Well, are you relieved now? Wash your hands and eat?"

"Okay, I want to eat potato stew."

"It's ready... By the way, there is also a thick egg burn, do you want it? It's sweet and delicious."

"Then...let's have one."

The father who has nothing to do may be commendable for the good cooking skills he has developed.

...

As Mizuki expected, no one noticed Haruki's anomaly, but no one got involved.

The secrets of Konoha Village are not suitable to be disclosed. What I don't know is just a coincidence. I know some truths about Mizuki, and I turn a blind eye, just like Haruki is just an ordinary orphan.

The only one who knows part of the facts and clearly knows that it is Mizuki's somatic cell clone is a little worried. Is it not good for Haruki and Miyuki to have too much contact.

Knowing that Mizuki has cloning technology, Xiao Chun, who has a physical clone of himself, can't make a mistake, but the direction of worry is different.

"Don't worry, our daughter is very good..."

The gap between Haruki and Xiaomeiyuki is really too big. Whether it is background, qualifications, or education, the future of the two is not at the same level at all.

Just like Mizuki and Hatake Kakashi in the original book, although the two are the same age, they have no intersection at all.

In a peaceful age, in a society where classes are gradually solidified, it is not possible to achieve class promotion through individual efforts, which is not something that ordinary aptitude can do. At least the current Haruki does not show the potential to be superior.
