爸爸找哥哥做什麼呢？佐助躺在飯廳地板上好奇的想著。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVi5rCnl1V
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYjSgSN4kn
是不是要偷偷給哥哥糖果呢？雖然爸爸平時看起來有點兇，但是有時候他下班回來，會在桌上放好幾顆糖。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrv7VYpNIw7
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h7xJdE6Jj
「是同事給的啊。」爸爸總是這麼說。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUb34M2AkL7
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OrYns0tOw
好不公平喔，爸爸這次帶糖回來卻只給哥哥。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjgBchSV0Z
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFTSVrFWiW
沒關係，等哥哥回來時再跟他要糖好了，哥哥一定會把糖果分給佐助的。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9ZPPtRqx6
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivdwMMQNt4
佐助想著想著嘴巴都嘟起來了，媽媽見狀便戳他像包子一般又熱又軟的臉頰笑問：「愛生氣，你又為了什麼不高興呀？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oeuHBPGs7
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWboS78B0c
佐助正揉著臉頰時，哥哥推開紙門，回到飯廳來了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx44DjeBjzo
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vbaHTDvaw
「哥哥！」佐助像是十年沒見到人家似的撲上去。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5NwQUvTZP
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0SJBZvUY3
「鼬，爸爸跟你說了什麼呢？」媽媽關心。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhh0OqtdAL
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaoEPXIASz
「關於任務的事。」鼬回答。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9cX2nOSNl
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhgDNnn0a1
一聽到「任務」，佐助頭上立刻豎起隱形的「緊張」雷達。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD9jXy5hNs
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbAuLRZ9Vk
此時，紙門再度被開啟，爸爸進到飯廳裡來。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhiVMFZqr5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5K7uaqDXP8
「你們要一起出任務嗎？」媽媽問爸爸。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55UrdNZpN4
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsqUJHf83s
「只會一起出發，我會走得更遠一點。」爸爸說。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF4mt0tfqV
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4S7uobwwy
「要去多久呢？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81XPb2noI6
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRimUgU0k9L
「一個月吧。」爸爸啜了口茶。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb0WWJumBS
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0feoO6eSb
「鼬也是？」媽媽有點驚訝。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRheibQc0hZ
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6F1yjKh2w
「不，鼬不會那麼久，詳細的內容也要明天開會才知道。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPgjBnsuBU
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22NRfkLmah
聽著父母的對話，佐助愈來愈不安。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6TPfng55N
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3duyUTok89
「什麼時候出發？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdImqd4DZOO
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydI4vedgfC
「後天。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHUPa9NmtF
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVRlkGvNXb
後天？這麼快？佐助抬頭望著鼬：「哥哥，你後天出發，晚上就會回來了，對不對？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W9kxhCmKs
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmFzUI2Lsf
鼬輕輕摸著佐助的頭苦笑：「對不起哪，我晚上不會回來喔。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzC8FHavcZ
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn8BXEOGP2
「那、你大後天會回來嗎？」佐助更著急了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8llr5DE5c9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByXSDj4yCY
「大後天也沒辦法。」鼬說。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLdRssAXXn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaCq8UG48v
至少兩天不能回家？那對佐助來說是好久好久了！佐助嚇得抱緊哥哥。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYPtmfLM4o
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoftffHB2d
「佐助？」鼬察覺到佐助的異樣。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii62hfGTDy
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe264S0yh2n
「哥哥不要出任務！」佐助的臉漲得紅通通的，眼角有淚水在累積了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCL9qX7nGX
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPR23zwzt85
「佐助……」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTObRPDsTX
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1Jypqdofw
「不行！」淚水任性的掉下來了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ptzJXPBRP
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRvkxSCMdi
鼬感覺到他上衣的下半部被佐助的淚水浸濕了，他小心的把佐助推離開他一點距離，蹲下身平視佐助說：「佐助，你好愛哭哪。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyq0QgI9GF
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnYNRDJptv
雖然鼬並沒有責備佐助的意思，可是佐助一聽到哥哥這麼說，卻恨不得馬上把淚水止住，而噘起了嘴巴。佐助嘴角翹得老高，淚珠掛在眼角要流下又不流下的模樣，在鼬眼中有一點點滑稽，使他嘴角忍不住上揚。 35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOPxfQzsyV
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKrS39QZP3
佐助發現哥哥臉上有笑意，更是難為情。到了要睡覺的時候，佐助故意把哥哥的衣角握得好用力。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRnnTd0ZHt
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAgy5xQ5hX
鼬用一隻手撐著頭，看著佐助的睡顏，覺得弟弟好像太依賴自己了，但又想到弟弟還這麼小，會這麼黏他是理所當然的。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZjBy34EYi
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAKvNebhWN
然而佐助其實知道自己留不住哥哥；他也知道哥哥要接的任務無法在短時間內完成，表示任務很困難，而有能力處理這次任務的哥哥真的很厲害，這讓佐助很驕傲。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcmhSlXFGy
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerIzQC5hZA
可是他就是不想跟哥哥分開哪。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dOq9XAZca
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5O4Mbd9To
哥哥一直都是和他一起，在木葉村裡玩耍、捉蟲子、看火車，在家裡做紙風車，又一齊在院子裡把番茄種子播下，並看著種子發芽。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNy1umVzq7
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5lnhCuFIz
葉子都還沒有冒幾片呢，兩天後，哥哥卻要跟他分開了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CGWkDSOnq
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QjliDZbUG
在佐助無法跟哥哥見面的時候，哥哥會碰到什麼事情？遇到什麼樣的人？佐助都沒辦法知道。這樣子感覺兩個人變得好遙遠啊，雖然佐助年紀還小，不會想到要用「遙遠」形容這種失落感。他只覺得，自己一定會很想很想哥哥。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AXXs0w3Kt
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV9p0ppie1
怎麼辦呢？35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0U1NIqw4H8
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY8lS5g45c
隔天早上，佐助醒來時，發現自己手中已經空無一物了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQ1R12QfP9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSxoHh9SIL
哥哥不在家的這一天，佐助也沒有出門，他幾乎整天都待在飯廳。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbTKO9kixC
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eU1rjCzbZ
媽媽很放心的在廚房做事，直到聽見佐助用不尋常的聲音喊著「媽媽」。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLJDscO67e
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSDhLc3qnc
她回頭一看，見佐助站在她身後，皺著眉頭，手指上有一道紅紅的傷口，他的眼眶又浮起一顆接一顆的泡泡了。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDpQ4dwtrp
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4HVtKHEV7
「你怎麼了？怎麼會受傷呢？」媽媽趕緊幫佐助擦藥，隨後回到飯廳一探究竟。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAPM8K5NPS
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TtzN0rK3P
她看到矮桌上扔滿文具，以及一些破碎的紙片，她再想了想，才了解佐助剛才在弄什麼東西，而會心一笑。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bNUKUAgKu
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMWa3tZ97E
「佐助，要不要媽媽幫你忙呢？」她回頭對佐助眨了眨眼睛。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2F8ZXVGiw
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fo6EWpSAo
可是佐助卻一點也不領情，氣勢十足的說：「不用，我要自己來！」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmjtCQYppC
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ036M0baWMo
「這樣啊，好吧，但是呢，」媽媽叮嚀佐助：「你要更小心一點，不能再受傷了，好嗎？」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9VYYQ65ds
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIl7XAMcTN
「嗯！」佐助使勁點頭。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29rpQKadGy
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp4GCTQ8R1
說是這樣說，但是直到晚餐時間之前，媽媽至少有三次又聽到佐助在她背後帶著哭腔喊「媽媽」。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbm56P7mgX
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4CApC4weF
吃晚餐時，鼬發現佐助手指上都是ＯＫ繃。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGUkV10DTv
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2oSSkjRhk
「為什麼你手上有ＯＫ繃？」鼬疑問。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpbTIBrEEC
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN4WQubJMO
佐助無法顧及哥哥的擔心，他的眼神因為不懂得說謊而只好往別的地方飄過去。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskUyK8fNLL
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaxCSbR8OB
「他打破了盤子哪。」媽媽幫著撒謊。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDetLTbxnA
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWJxYa3vOT
「真的嗎？佐助，拿盤子的時候要小心一點。」鼬無可奈何的說。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrm0C0bFAI0
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF6nfsBAxJ
佐助點頭，心裡偷偷鬆一口氣。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6CQeR0lrp
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7Y08qqEQE
「不過你手上的ＯＫ繃……也貼得太多條了。」睡前，兄弟倆趴在床上，鼬又提起佐助的手傷。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP1XYujBGT
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQPTGVHbb4
「沒、沒關係，」佐助把手藏進被子裡說：「我下次會小心。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97rOYyeYI3
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMMzVXn8pJ
「嗯。」鼬沒有再繼續追問的意思。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRVlfwmuxx
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFYlbNSVW2
出任務的前一晚，兩個人都捨不得睡覺。床頭燈鵝黃的光線給人溫暖的感覺，窗外吹進一陣微風，佐助綁在床四周的紙風車一起隨風轉動，在床墊上留下飛動的黑影。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESQRLDKhzf
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrYYZCx9k7
「佐助，我偷偷跟你說，」鼬主動提起隔天的任務：「明天我要去的地方，對你來說很遠。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldMd7kUSO1
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCfRUQPDjg
佐助睜大眼睛看著哥哥，忍住不抽動鼻子。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8rpc6LFkB
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcNtSyAGP8
「聽說那是個到處都有紙風車的村莊，大家都很會做紙風車，以賣紙風車維生，」鼬接著講：「那裡本來沒有忍者，非常祥和寧靜，但是現在有別村的忍者躲在那裡，所以我們要去把他抓起來。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGlM0rI6S8
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv13eZSrcX
佐助一聽到「紙風車」，眼神都亮了起來。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHit0ueZ2g
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6NgXWOFnp
「哥哥加凹屋──」佐助想大聲說話，但是哥哥即時按住了他的嘴巴。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNbjF5Kf8Y
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb22NjxuvGe
這可是秘密啊，所以不能大聲講哪。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4g3f76OaE
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7RYEFAdr7
「哥哥加油！」隔著鼬的手，佐助的聲音小小的傳了出來。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYuP8PJOFz
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZISREUKM7
「嗯，我會的，」鼬露出很溫柔的笑容說：「雖然我可能要待在外面好幾天，但一定沒有問題的，所以佐助也不要擔心。」35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRH8wQCLp5
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZ2O81qati
佐助點點頭，被鼬按住的嘴巴還發出「嗯、嗯」的聲音。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3CRuOnYqn
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSn6J65BV8
「睡覺吧。」鼬鬆手時說道。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZEysUDK3n
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLqKGgOHC3
「哥哥，你明天出門時要叫我喔。」佐助整個陷進被窩裡，又探出頭來說。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEntRIJxnO
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTdIZnrqkF
「我會的。」鼬笑答。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr4fZ3pjC9
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiqOInPgqR
佐助迷迷糊糊的睡著了，鼬提到的那個紙風車村莊，莫名的讓佐助感到安心。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRR8RLEYzOY
35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8J2Na4MdP
佐助做了一個夢。夢裡，天上出了個大太陽，身旁都是正在轉著扇葉的紙風車，地上是扇葉的影子，他夢到哥哥陪著他把番茄種下，番茄發了芽，長了很多葉子，愈來愈高，最後結了好多顆好多顆番茄。35Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgtPnL6NXC
