Chapter 47: Ch.47 The Dawn That Dispels the Darkness!
"Huh, what's this?" Haku, who had been unexpectedly invited by Uchiha Shinji for a late-night meal, returned to his apartment and found a note on his desk.
He walked over, picked it up, and after reading it, his expression became serious.
At the same time.
Karin, who had returned home late, also found a note on her bedside table.
She hesitated for a moment, then picked up the note and read it, her face changing instantly as she instinctively glanced at the clock on the wall.
Inside Uchiha Shinji's apartment.
Just like when he had prepared for the previous invasion, he neatly laid out all his shinobi tools on the bed, carefully sorting and packing them into his tool pouch.
Then, he secured the silken thread he had obtained as spoils of war from last time around his wrist, hiding it up his sleeve.
After finishing all this, he glanced at the clock, then lay down on the bed, closing his eyes to rest.
The apartment became silent, with only his soft breathing and the monotonous, precise ticking of the clock's gears.
9 o'clock. 10 o'clock. 11 o'clock... Time slowly passed, and finally, the clock's hands pointed to 12 o'clock.
