Playing As Gojo Sato Chapter 369

Chapter 369: Chapter 369

Hatake Satoru walked boldly down the shopping street, not hiding at all.

Maybe his strange appearance and confident walk made him look nothing like soone skipping class.

Shisui and Itachi’s heads peeked out from the rooftop. The two of them looked down at Hatake Satoru, who seed completely unaware that there was anything wrong.

Uchiha Itachi had not yet graduated from ninja school, but he didn’t have anything too important going on there anyway.

Besides, regular schools let out much later than ninja school.

"The target of this mission seems to be that friend you ntioned before."

Shisui said, unfolding a piece of paper with Hatake Satoru’s photo on it.

"How could it be...?"

It wouldn’t be unreasonable if Hatake Satoru was the client, but it’s a bit strange for him to be the target of a mission, right?!

What kind of mission could involve that guy?

Uchiha Itachi curiously examined the paper, and then saw that [Hatake Satoru] left the school before the end of classes, repeatedly refused to change, and even when people were sent to find him, he couldn’t be found at all.

Sotis there were pictures of him slacking off, but they just couldn’t catch Hatake Satoru.

Occasionally, Hatake Satoru would be kind enough to go back to school early and let the studying students go ho, but most of the ti he would just disappear in the afternoon.

Late in the morning and leaving early in the afternoon, he didn’t seem like a teacher at all.

In a pile of pictures showing his terrible slacking, there was even a photo of Hatake Satoru lying on a rooftop, napping in the sun with a bunch of cats.

Under Shisui’s concerned gaze, Uchiha Itachi pursed his lips and looked away.

"What can I say, that’s just like him..."

Uchiha Itachi wasn’t good at badmouthing people, especially since Hatake Satoru was a proper teacher.

So when he talked about Hatake Satoru with Shisui, he mostly said that he was a reliable person.

Or that he was a nice guy; after all, so things are just jokes between friends.

As a regular person, Hatake Satoru was indeed a pretty good guy.

Shisui was a little surprised by this, since the person who had beco the target of a mission didn’t seem like a reliable person at all.

But in Uchiha Itachi’s description, he always seed like an easy-going, normal person.

For reasons like these, the two of them were curious and decided to stake out and catch the teacher, Hatake Satoru, who was good at skipping class.

Hatake Satoru seed completely unaware that he was being watched and was still buying food with his wallet.

Normally, with his attendance record, it would be hard for him to beco a teacher, but his grades were just too good. It didn’t make sense not to keep a student who was almost always the top of his class every year.

This was originally just a symbolic gesture, because people who reached Hatake Satoru’s level usually tended to get closer to the Daimyo.

What they didn’t expect was that Hatake Satoru would actually lower himself to be a teacher here.

"After all, I have a younger brother here, and I need to take care of him."

Hatake Satoru naturally used his family as an excuse to stay here.

At this ti, Kakashi had thrown himself into Anbu and didn’t even co ho, so Hatake Satoru’s words were complete nonsense.

Keeping him around turned out to be a burden, but it would also be a waste not to use such a talent, since Hatake Satoru being a teacher was actually a good thing.

Although things were much more peaceful now, there weren’t many people who stayed to beco teachers due to the war.

The school really did lack teachers, which is why they decided to keep Hatake Satoru despite his attendance record.

However, even after they kept him, Hatake Satoru seed to have figured out the school’s weakness, and he skipped whenever he could, doing whatever he wanted and not fulfilling his duties as a teacher at all.

As a last resort, they had to ask so Genin to bring Hatake Satoru back.

"I don’t think he’s noticed us at all..."

After running after him for a while, Itachi and Shisui couldn’t help but mutter to each other.

Hatake Satoru’s actions didn’t seem like he had noticed them at all. Not only was he out eating during work hours, but he was even walking around the shops without a care.

It was even better than taking a vacation.

"Then... should we catch him when he cos out of that store?"

"It shouldn’t be too hard."

Uchiha Shisui smiled at Itachi next to him, and then the two of them carefully watched the store that Hatake Satoru had just walked into.

However, they waited for almost twenty minutes without seeing anyone co out.

It was just a store. Even picking sothing out couldn’t take that long, right?

The two of them looked at each other and jumped down from the roof.

If Hatake Satoru didn’t co out, they would just go in and find him.

It wasn’t a big store, and two people blocking one person wouldn’t be a problem.

They had just thought it wouldn’t be good to interrupt the store’s normal business.

The two of them rushed inside one after the other, startling the old woman sitting at the cash register.

But there was no one inside. It was a used bookstore, and all there was inside was floating dust and the sll of old books.

"But... we didn’t see him leave."

The two of them were a bit dumbfounded. Shisui even checked around to see if there was a back door.

But a used bookstore like this wouldn’t have a back door. The entire dim little shop relied on the dim light coming in from the entrance to stay lit.

Shisui shouldn’t have been able to let an ordinary person get away, even if he was a little attached to used bookstores.

After all, he really thought there was no way that Hatake Satoru, a big guy who was quite eye-catching, could have slipped past them unnoticed.

But the used bookstore clearly didn’t have any sign of anyone there. There were only books.

"Let’s go out and take a look around here."

Shisui couldn’t help but frown and walked out with Uchiha Itachi.

As soon as their feet stepped out of the used bookstore, Shisui imdiately felt soone standing next to the bookstore entrance.

It was hard to describe what that felt like. Simply put, he didn’t realize soone was there until he ca out.

With the alertness he usually had, he should have noticed soone standing there.

Hatake Satoru, leaning on his leg, seed to have been standing there for a while, rather than just arriving.

He had a string of dumplings in his mouth. Because he was wearing an eye mask, they couldn’t see his eyes, but they could tell from the way he tilted his head that he was looking at them.

"You should be in class at this ti, why are you skipping too~?" [Spoon/scoop symbol].
