Chapter 30 Nothing is settled
Daimyo: "By the way, you finally came once, how about you eat in the palace today?"
Me: "Thank you, Daimyo. ”
Daimyo: "I still have something to deal with, so let's go around the city first." ”
Me: "Then I'll quit first." ”
I withdrew, left the palace directly, and returned to the inn.
"Hokage-sama, breakfast is ready. Two clerks with tea trays.
"Breakfast was a bit more prepared. ”
"We're going to re-prepare now. ”
"No, just put these in my room, you go and prepare some more, and I'll eat it with lunch. ”
"Yes. When they had put the tea tray on the table, they went down to prepare.
Three drawers of xiaolongbao, three bowls of milk, and one bowl of noodles.
“……”
"Even if I'm the Hokage, I can't eat so much. ”
Picked up the chopsticks and sandwiched a xiaolongbao, pork filling, although the taste is not the same as the original world, it is still very delicious. After eating a drawer of xiaolongbao, I started eating noodles.
At this time, the Minister of Defense came to the station.
The shopkeeper (the person who manages the inn, I can't think of what to call it): "I don't know if the adults are coming, and I miss the welcome." ”
Minister of Defense: "Is the fifth Hokage here?"
Owner: "He's on the third floor, room 301. ”
Secretary of State: "Thank you. ”
The Minister of Defense walked to the third floor and walked towards 301, when the shadows suddenly appeared, and the samurai who was guarding immediately drew his sword and moved forward, but was stopped by the minister.
Shadows: "Hokage-sama is resting, and you are not allowed to enter without permission." ”
Chancellor: "I'm the Minister of Defense of the Fire Nation, and I have something very important to discuss with the five Hokages. ”
The shadows glanced at each other, and one walked to the door: "Knock!
"Please come in. ”
"Hokage-sama, the Minister of Defense said that there is something important to discuss. ”
"Let him in. ”
"Yes. ”
The dark department went out and said to the minister, "Please come in." ”
The vizier said to the guards, "You will stay here." ”
After the minister went, the dark department closed the door and disappeared.
I got up: "Sir." ”
Minister: "Hokage-sama." ”
After saying hello, we sat down.
Me: "I wonder what the adults are looking for me?"
The minister handed me a letter: "Not long ago, we found a body in the forest outside the city, from which we found. It can be confirmed that he is a spy. ”
I opened the envelope and took out the letter, which I could understand, but I didn't know the message I was trying to convey.
Me: "Do you know the identity of the deceased?"
Chancellor: "According to the belongings, the deceased belonged to a thousand-handed clan. ”
Me: "Thousand Hands!?"
Minister: "Because of the special status of the Thousand Hands Clan, it ......"
Me: "A thousand hands...... Do you have a photo?"
The minister took out the photo, and I seemed to have seen this person, but I was not impressed.
Me: "Can you put the picture with me? When I get back to the village, I'll investigate it immediately." ”
Minister: "This matter is very important, I hope Hokage-sama will solve it as soon as possible." ”
Me: "But the daimyo will leave me for dinner, and I will only have to go back to the village tomorrow." ”
……
Me: "By the way, do you know which village he is communicating with?"
The minister shook his head: "There is no information available at all. ”
Me: "I can only go back to the village and investigate in detail." ”
Chancellor: "I'm sorry for your help. ”
The minister left a photo and an envelope and left.
"One thing is not settled, and one thing is again...... Is it because I became the fifth Hokage and completely changed the plot, so this is the case......"
(!————)
In the evening, the daimyo sent someone to pick me up at the post station, and when I arrived at the palace, I went straight to the restaurant.
Daimyo: "Oh, you're here. ”
Me: "Daimyo." ”
Daimyo: "Let me introduce you, this is my wife." ”
Mrs. Daimyo: "Hello, Goyo Hokage, I always trouble the ninjas in your village to help me find the cat." Don't look at my age, I'm only 40. Oh hehehehe......"
Me: "Ah......" I want to say that the cat ran away because he couldn't stand you.
Daimyo: "This is my son." ”
Daimyo son: "Hokage-sama is good. ”
Me: "Hello. ”
Daimyo: "This is my daughter." ”
Daimyo daughter: "Hokage-sama is good. ”
Me: "Hello. ”
Daimyo: "Alright, let's get the food served." ”
Servant: "Yes." ”
Daimyo: "You may be seated." ”
Me: "Sit down." ”
After the daimyo sat down, I pulled up a chair and sat down.
At this time, the person who looked like an official on the side wrote something in a large notebook, and there were words in his mouth: "This is the first time since the founding of the Fire Nation that the daimyo and the Hokage have dinner." ”
Daimyo: "Since the founding of the country, the first, second, third, and fourth generations have not eaten with my ancestors, and you are the first. Then the daimyo looked at his son, "After I abdicate, my son will inherit me, and at that time, I will ask you to take care of it." ”
The servant served about 20 dishes, and then everyone went down, and there were only five of us left in the whole restaurant, and the son and daughter sat in their seats with sad faces.
I smiled and said, "If you have anything to do, please tell me directly." ”
Daimyo: "What's the matter? I just want to have dinner with you." ”
I stood up and saluted: "Then forgive me for leaving." ”
Daimyo: "My son is gone." ”
……
Daimyo: "In his room, blood stains were found, but I searched the entire city and the surrounding area for dozens of kilometers, but I didn't find the body. ”
They all bowed their heads......
Me: "Any clues?"
The daimyo pulled out an unknown object: "I checked the room, and there was only one more thing." ”
I took it and looked at it over and over again, and I really didn't know what it was.
Me: "Who knows about it?"
Daimyo: "The whole city knows. ”
Me: "This ......" can't be used for troubleshooting.
Daimyo: "We searched all the suspects, but the suspicions were eliminated......"
……
Daimyo: "I'd like to commission the Shadows with an investigation. ”
I thought for a moment, "Can you take me to my room?"
The four of them got up, and I followed them out of the restaurant and came to a door.
Daimyo: "This is it. ”
I changed to a writing wheel, opened the door, walked to the middle of the room, and looked around, there was no barrier like a seal.
I thought, "I want to overlook something......"
I turned to the daimyo and said, "Are you sure it's your son's blood?"
The daughter whispered to her son, "Brother, that's the legendary Sharingan, right?"
The son also whispered, "It should be, after all, it's from the Uchiha clan." ”
Daimyo: "After a doctor's test, it wasn't my son's." ”
Me: "It's not the corpse outside the city?"
Daimyo: "Hmm. ”
I thought to myself, "It's getting more and more things going on......"
Me: "Rest assured, I'll look into it as quickly as I can." ”
Daimyo: "I'm sorry for you. ”
