I COULD EAT THE WORLD RAW The grass nin was immediately suspicious. Daichi couldn’t blame him, really, he’d come up out of nowhere and was clearly denoted as a Kiri shinobi. The sir was wildly unnecessary, though, and Daichi visibly cringed when he heard it.
Maybe it was the exhaustion talking, but the genin was incredibly forthright despite his suspicions… though that turned around in an instant, as if he had remembered that he was speaking to a foreigner.
Daichi laughed—not laughing at the genin, but at the thought of being a cop, which was depressingly funny.
"I’m not a cop,” he assured the other boy. "Just a spectator, I guess.” Again, not too far from the truth. Functionally, observing made up the bulk of his duties. "I think you’re underestimating yourself, honestly. Aren’t you in the second-place spot? I wouldn’t call that behind.”
He understood, though. It didn’t seem to matter how much training he pushed himself through, Daichi never seemed to feel up to par with his peers. Like Kurai, for example, who was a cop—they were the same rank, but he’d wipe the floor with Daichi any day of the week.
"I’m not, like, hunting around for the foreign participants’ secrets, if that’s what you’re worried about,” Daichi said after a moment. "I just do patrols around the area to make sure nothing bad’s come up.” Obviously the Kusa nin had no reason to take him at his word, but it was the truth, and Daichi’s earnesty was embarrassingly obvious. "I can go, though. Just wanted to make sure you were okay.” A beat. "‘n you must be hungry. Dorm kitchen’s probably still open, but there’s a little noodle shop nearby that’s not bad for being pretty cheap. I can point you towards it if you want something different.”
