Chapter 5: I Was Expendable Too
The sky gradually turned pale.
Yako stood before the window of his second-floor room in the Crane Moon Izakaya, watching the full moon in the sky slowly fade beneath the morning sun.
'If I die this month, I should resurrect right here,' he thought.
After leaving Konoha Hospital, he hadn't returned to the Anbu headquarters. Instead, he stayed at the izakaya.
He spent whatever he earned. If he didn't spend it, it would just end up benefiting the captain.
Yako turned and looked at the bed.
Kyoi was fast asleep. Her leg, exposed outside the blanket, was smooth and toned.
After interacting with her for half the night, he still hadn't found any proof that Kyoi was a spy.
Perhaps his investigation hadn't been deep enough.
