佐助目不轉睛的盯著停在葉片上的蜻蜓。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIThXnpQ2bD
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrM6H6fE6K
　　哥哥說，只要在蜻蜓眼前用食指劃圈，蜻蜓就會頭暈，然後就能抓住蜻蜓。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgCSaCHV7A
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXCLwns9wN
　　佐助照著哥哥的話做了，可是蜻蜓卻飛了起來。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURHuIOrWHj
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgc21LY2kC
　　「啊，不要跑！」佐助叫著追了過去。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUbYu0P9Ei
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLV0rHubiE
　　蜻蜓像架戰鬥機似的飆著速度，飛越足下的綠色植物，往水池邊前進。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqT3hpraxo
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt72pMaM4Co
　　佐助追得很專心，沒有發覺腳下的土地愈來愈鬆軟，到後來變得濕濕滑滑的。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XjhGovw0K
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnohtChxgqW
　　到了水池邊，佐助的鞋子在泥巴上剎不住腳，整個身子朝地上跌了下去。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hi5YiixbR
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dCcI235zN
　　「呀！」佐助的眼睛一直看著已經飛到水面上的蜻蜓，說時遲那時快，一道黑影出現在他面前，擋住了蜻蜓的身影。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2OdpQ223x
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDTCRUWyh1
　　刺眼的陽光逼得佐助閉上雙眼。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmwnASKnsy
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqoqEkF9NY
　　「嘩啦！」耳邊響起池水濺起的聲音，但是佐助並沒有跌到水裡。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQAUkz5eXj
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbuxIGPlq4
　　佐助睜開眼，發現自己正坐在鼬身上；他爬起身，看見鼬代替他跌坐在水裡，只對他說了一句：「你沒事就好。」50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK14522ZWc
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgaCKk45qN
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DLPSb3gqt
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOBEplcgoO
　　「哇──！」佐助趴在鼬背上哭：「哥哥被我弄濕了！」50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7rANm7oPO
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu0KhXuZf9
　　「沒事啦，」背著佐助的鼬邊走邊笑：「你看我好好的呀。」50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bnQQxsnWN
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkXQy8oKAy
　　佐助仍然止不住抽泣。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9AvPUPzGT
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQpQdZ3V24
　　鼬聽著佐助低低的啜泣聲，只能無奈的微笑。他背著弟弟走在木葉村的小巷裡，身旁都是從住家石牆冒出頭的低矮樹叢。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRIJ55XaGG
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTD9BxFflA
　　迎面一串掛在牆頭的淡粉色花朵，原來是走到南賀神社外邊了。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesordzjVuk
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF0gVpLEBx
　　「佐助你看，櫻花開了。」鼬偏過頭對佐助說，隨即感覺到背後起了一陣小小的騷動。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63RylWXK1n
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsz6vA1Xne
　　佐助抬起頭，望見櫻花，眼珠子睜得圓圓的。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67gJi5G6sH
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa9I0p3g4k
　　一道水柱猛地衝了出來，鼬趕緊退後一步。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uXabmDbfG
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdFV1IcQB8
　　「抱歉、抱歉，我在灑水，弄濕你們了嗎？」神社住持擔心的探出頭來，他手上握著橘色塑膠水管。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafWy51gVGS
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoMDVwkCSh
　　「沒事，沒關係的。」鼬搖搖頭，禮貌的回應。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUf8Y1O4pc
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxf5oLEIuh
　　「哥哥，哥哥。」好一陣子沒有說話的佐助突然開口。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohmtcSVX4h
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzSiLjGpra
　　「什麼事？」鼬關心地問道。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3m066W5x9
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI94Nc5CF2
　　「彩虹！」佐助用誇張的嘴型，大聲而興奮的把單詞喊了出來。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrfzc5qTe3
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojUl3YYkUe
　　鼬和住持一起往佐助所指的方向看，從水管裡噴出來的水在陽光照射下，浮現緞帶一般的彩虹。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGn5i162DC
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkncjUWsKF
　　「真漂亮。」鼬輕聲讚嘆道。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v197zeor8

　　兩個小孩子回到家以後，被媽媽罵了一頓。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy0WdcfbV3
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzRHazCVY8
　　「真是的，鼬怎麼會濕答答的回來，佐助也髒兮兮的？」媽媽一邊幫小兒子擦頭髮，嘴上一邊叨念。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsMCSQe6ar
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW4hRLIwhM
　　「佐助在池邊滑倒，我為了救他而掉到水裡去，他大哭。」鼬已經洗好了澡也換過衣服，坐在屋簷下的木廊上。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIbr1rHavw
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbbyNjqdEn
　　「咦？佐助又哭了？佐助你已經四歲了，不能再這麼愛哭唷。」媽媽對著佐助按下了吹風機開關：「來吹頭髮囉！」50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNGdQp9ujn
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeWaoMsAn3
　　「唔──」佐助不情願的答應聲從轟隆的吹風機送風聲底下悶悶的傳出來。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZytd2gBiA
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJkvOXxHAZ
　　「四歲也還小嘛。」鼬淡淡的說。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ81H5prbtt
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW4VkWuMxN
　　「不一定喔，鼬四歲的時候已經開始學習忍術，很厲害了呢。」媽媽一邊回答鼬的話，一邊把佐助拉近面前說：「佐助來給媽媽聞一下，嗯，洗得好香喔。」說著就搔起佐助的胳肢窩，把佐助逗得好不開心。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3RsapuaZJ
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4KhCMAfP9
　　「……是嗎？」鼬聽著媽媽和弟弟笑鬧的聲音，若有所思的轉過頭看向夕照下的庭院。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvJWh2A9nh
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgSQXZDclN
　　佐助好不容易從媽媽懷裡掙脫出來，一下子又鑽到鼬懷裡，伸出頭來問：「哥哥，你在摺什麼？」50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNMOvOGNKi
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxhf1evoGf
　　鼬聞身低頭，見佐助朝他手裡不斷把玩的紙製玩具猛瞧。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLy3Wm9USM
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwgToh6uPY
　　鼬好玩的把玩具舉到臉前，對佐助說：「你對著我吹一口氣看看。」50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0uTwdjBIK
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ154mLSTNIU
　　「為什麼？」佐助疑惑。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4w2aNRsDtr
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEti6JkXmth
　　「吹嘛。」鼬笑道。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNHtqPpo88
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4AHHX9ltI
　　佐助聽話的深深吸了一口氣，把臉頰漲得鼓鼓的，然後像被鬆開的氣球一般，用力的把氣全送了出去。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBSzyQ8brp
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmdYCm5WYd
　　玩具的扇葉開始緩緩的轉動。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5q4XMgnwz
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxYxi3flWq
　　「在轉耶！」佐助很驚訝。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1ZNqS2EbL
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMsvvtqB3Q
　　「這個叫風車。」鼬微笑。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv67bMoHTz
50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgHdSE7S04
　　佐助趕緊再吹了一口氣，紙風車又徐徐轉動起來。50Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzPBea0Kn3
