She ran away.
That's right, Kano ran away.
Originally, she wanted to warn Gaara to be careful of people wearing the same clothes as her, but now Kano couldn't say it. It was too embarrassing!
Once she returned to Konoha, she would deal with the issue of concert tickets.
As Kano's fame grew, more and more people from outside were coming to Konoha Village to see her concerts. Kano was determined to punish the black-hearted vendors who were scamming people from other villages!
If it weren't for these black-hearted vendors, Kano wouldn't have received a ticket from her own last concert as an apology gift.
In the future, ticket purchases must require real-name authentication and track serial numbers.
After running far away, Kano immediately took off the Virtual Idol Skin and changed into a different set of clothes.
Thus, the disguise was temporarily lifted.
Kano took out a blank scroll and began to write.
"Gaara of the Hidden Sand,
Hello.
Regarding your purchase of an expired ticket in my village, I am very sorry. Additionally, thank you very much for your help this time. To express my apologies and gratitude, you can take this letter to Konoha Village and find Uzumaki Karin to exchange it for three of the latest concert tickets and a bonus gift.
I hope you have a pleasant time in Konoha.
konoha songstress Kano"
After writing the scroll, Kano had Shadow Deer Tube run back to the place where they were just now with the scroll. Without the influence of the Virtual Idol Skin, Gaara should be able to recognize Shadow Deer Tube... At this moment, Gaara and Lee were also somewhat silent. Gaara felt very sorry for messing up the apology gift again. Lee also hadn't had the chance to thank her before she left.
"Um, is this ticket of mine really fake?"
"This ticket is real, but it's for the last concert, and it's already been used. Look at these two holes punched in it; that's proof it's been used."
Lee, being an honest person, told the truth.
"Then can you take me to buy a ticket for the latest concert?"
"I'm afraid that's not possible."
"Why?"
"Because the tickets are already sold out. The dedicated concert stage in Konoha Village is still under construction, and the temporary venue currently in use can only accommodate a little over a hundred people.
So very few tickets are released each time, and they basically sell out on the day they go on sale."
"That's a pity. I originally wanted to come and listen to a song Naruto told me about this time."
"Actually, you can hear them without going to the concert venue. Kano occasionally sings randomly somewhere in Konoha Village, sometimes with dancing; if you're lucky, you can see her.
After all, concert ticket prices are high, and ordinary people can't afford them. They were originally intended for nobles from home and abroad, hoping to give them a better experience."
"Thank you for letting me know. I'll go listen. If Naruto likes her that much, I should be able to like her too."
Not long after, Shadow Deer Tube arrived in front of Gaara with the scroll and gave it to him.
