After walking up for a distance, they arrived at the top of the Hokage Rock, which is a huge large space with five layers of railings set up along the edges for safety. Small colorful lights wound their way up from the base of the mountain along the path to the flat area at the top.

"Naruto! It’s dangerous, come back here."

Ino stood inside the innermost railing, watching Naruto standing on the outermost railing, with his tactical boots perched on a six-centimeter-wide steel pipe. The night wind howled from high above, and Naruto’s whole body swayed with it.

"It's fine, I do this all the time."

Naruto was facing Ino, with nothing but the cliff behind him and a string of dango in his hand.

This action was incredibly dangerous, and Ino felt her heart nearly leap out of her chest. Her eyes were glued to Naruto standing on the outermost railing, her heart was pounding in sync with his slight swaying, and her mind was filled with fear.

Even though she wasn’t the one standing there, Ino was terrified, afraid that Naruto might disappear from the railing in the next second. The psychological insecurity made her body tremble slightly, and her throat constricted, making it impossible to speak.

"Don’t." Ino took several steps forward, crossed three railings and tried to pull Naruto down.

She saw Naruto was smiling, with his hands behind his back, seemingly enjoying the moment.

"I’m not going to jump." Naruto stepped down from the railing, then walked over to Ino and said, "The village's night view is quite beautiful."

"You scared me to death just now." Ino said.

"Ha ha, sorry about that." Naruto said with a chuckle, "Actually, it's very safe to do that. I often come here when I’m feeling down. Even if I accidentally fall, the protruding part of the Hokage Rock would catch me."

"Even so, it’s too dangerous." Ino muttered, " Don’t do things that make people worry!"

"Got it."

"Naruto, why did you forfeit that time?"

"No particular reason, I didn't want to take the exam anyway." Naruto said, "By the end of second round, the Chunin Exams was already over for me."

"What about the rest of it?"

“The rest didn’t matter.”

"Huh?" Ino was puzzled, "Wouldn't it be better to become a Chunin sooner?"

"Not really. I don’t want to do troublesome missions." Naruto said bluntly, "Besides, I am still too inexperienced. Even if I won all the matches, I wouldn’t be promoted to Chunin. So it’s just a complete waste of time."

Ino was completely baffled by Naruto’s logic. She covered her face and said, “Alright, fine.”

The two did not stay for long, nor did they talk about anything specific. About half an hour later, they left the Hokage Rock together.

As they parted at the crossroads, Ino waved at Naruto and asked, "Naruto, will you come to my family’s shop to buy flowers?"

"Huh?"

"You have a month off now, right?"

"Well, I plan to use it to catch up on sleep."

Ino: “…”

Naruto scratched his head, ‘Buy flowers? Are you saying I should buy them for Sandaime in advance? Wouldn’t that be a bit too much?’

…

“Ah, it feels good!”

The electric fan made a creaking sound, which was quite annoying, but after three creaks, it finally started to spin slowly. Naruto lay on the ground, letting out a weak moan.

It was a hot summer day, and the outside temperature was rising.

Naruto had ordered two air conditioners yesterday, but the installation personnel took a leave of absence, so the installation was postponed to today.

There was a knock on the door, and Naruto thought it was someone coming to install the air conditioners. He quickly got up and walked to the door, pulling it open with a bang.

"Huh?"

What caught his eye were two huge air conditioners, but there was no sign of the installation workers.

"Uchiha Sasuke? Are you the one who ordered the air conditioner installation service at the store yesterday?" A girl in a uniform, about the same height as Naruto, peeked out from behind a cardboard box. Her eyes immediately met Naruto's, and she froze on the spot.

‘That look couldn’t be wrong… Tayuya?’

"Are you Uchiha Sasuke?" The girl frowned, glanced at the card in her hand, then gave Naruto another look.

Tayuya didn't admit it, and Naruto didn't expose her either, and continued to fool her.

"Yes, that's me. I'm Uchiha Sasuke."

"I remember that the Uchiha Clan has no blondes." The girl muttered.

"It was dyed." Naruto lied without batting an eye.

"Oh, I see." The girl glanced at Naruto again, then displayed astonishing strength, directly carrying the two large air conditioners inside.

Air conditioners were a luxury item that appeared around the same time as refrigerators, but they are expensive enough that ordinary civilians couldn't afford them. Fortunately, Naruto was not an ordinary person. He bought two at once, which could be regarded as helping the store make a profit.

"Just install one, the other doesn't need to be installed, just leave it there." Naruto instructed.

"Okay."

The installation process was long and boring, with Naruto watching the entire time. He handed a popsicle to the girl with a swish once the work was done.

"Thank you." The girl didn’t refuse. She sat cross-legged on the ground skillfully, enjoying the cool breeze from the air conditioner.

"Um, you recognized me, didn't you?"

"Sort of." Naruto licked his popsicle, lying on the ground and asking, "So you've just been doing odd jobs during this time?"

"Yeah." Tayuya nodded, "The other three idiots couldn't learn, so I had to take over."

"Oh." Naruto thought to himself, ‘It turns out that undercover agents also have to do odd jobs, it must be tough.’

“So comfortable.”

"Yeah, it’s so comfortable." Tayuya agreed, imitating Naruto by lying on the ground and closing her eyes.

After who knows how long…

"Want to eat barbecue?" Naruto suddenly asked.

"Probably don't have time." Tayuya replied.

"That's a shame," Naruto said, "I don't feel like going alone."

"Mmm."

…

The next day, inside the seal space.

Kyubi looked at the pile of furniture that was like a small mountain and couldn't help feeling speechless. He then looked at Naruto, who was using a water pump to drain the waste water and said, "Human, is this how you use the Four Symbols Seal? To seal a bunch of home appliances?"

Upon hearing this, Naruto stopped what he was doing, rolled up his sleeves and shouted at Kyubi, "Just tell me whether you want it or not, bastard!"

"I will accept it with reluctance, but don't expect me to treat you kindly." Kyubi said proudly.

"Tsk." Naruto said without looking back, "Kurama, I'm not doing this for you. I just have too much money and don't know where to spend it. I was just bored, so I took pity on you and got you all these things."

"Hmph, you think I need your pity?"

"In that case, then this DVD player..."

"Pity me, please." Kyubi quickly gave in, and Naruto's mouth curled into a smile.

He had already let Kyubi experience the joy of using a DVD player, and this fox had become addicted to it. It was over for him.

"Alright, I'll pity you then." Naruto swiftly placed the DVD player within Kyubi’s reach, wiped his sweat and said, "That over there is an air conditioner. I doubt you'll need it, but it doesn't matter. It's a gift for you."

"That one over there is a refrigerator, and that one is..." Naruto listed a bunch of things, "Do you understand now?"

Kyubi didn't understand at all, but he nodded anyway.

"Human, don't underestimate my wisdom!"
