Chapter 334: Investigation
In Hinata's account, the people who remained at the scene figured out the whole process of Hinata's attack.
"Ichiro, according to you, you don't know why those who attacked you sneaked up on you?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, I'm also confused about the reasons why those sneak attackers came to attack me!" Hinata Ichiro said.
Seeing that Hinata Ichiro affirmed his question, the three Hokages asked some more questions.
After asking all the questions he wanted to ask, the third Hokage said, "Ichiro, you're frightened tonight, go back and rest early!"
"I'll take care of the rest!"
"I'll let you know when the result is available!"
"Okay!" Hinata Ichiro agreed, "Hokage-sama, then you're in for you!"
After that, accompanied by Tsunade, Hinata Ichiro returned to the Hyuga family clan - Hinata Hinata also needed to stay behind to assist the three generations of Hokage in dealing with certain things, so Tsunade sent Hinata Ichiro.

Konoha State Guesthouse.
in a room.
A group of high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village gathered.
"The battle should be over!" "Looking at the movement outside the window that had calmed down, the high-level of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village led by him said, "Judging from Konoha's calm reaction, those chess pieces we sent out missed!"
"That's good!" said a high-ranking member of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, "Otherwise, Konoha will definitely search the whole city!"
"Have all the secrecy measures that should be done before notifying those chess pieces to go on a mission?" asked the senior executive of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, who was the leader.
"Don't worry!" Hearing this, the high-level of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, who was in charge of contacting the chess pieces, immediately replied, "When I summoned those chess pieces to announce the content of the mission, none of the secrecy measures that should be done were missed!"
"That's good!" said the top officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, "After all, I don't want the attack on Hinata Ichiro to affect the signing ceremony of the armistice agreement between our Cloud Hidden Ninja Village and Konoha!"
"No!" said the senior of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, who was in charge of contacting the chess pieces, "No matter how powerful Konoha's interrogation department is, it is impossible to pry open the mouths of those chess pieces!"
Hearing that the high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, who were in charge of contacting the chess pieces, once again affirmed that there would be no problems with those chess pieces, the high-level leaders of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village led by him were relieved.
Turning around, the high-level leaders of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village led by him glanced at the other high-level leaders of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, and said, "Everyone, since the chess pieces we sent to attack Hinata Ichiro failed, then Hinata Ichiro has at least the strength to threaten the two Yugi people!"
"Therefore, we should now quickly send information about Hinata's strength back to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, so that Lord Thunder Shadow can know!"
"Let's wait!" said a high-ranking member of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, "Although the operation of those chess pieces we sent to attack Hinata Ichiro failed, we still don't know how the chess pieces that we sent to attack Hinata Ichiro failed!"
"If the chess pieces we sent to attack Ighiro Hinata were defeated by Ichiro Hinata independently, then we should indeed quickly transmit information about Ichiro Hinata's strength back to the Ninja Village!"
"But if the chess pieces we sent to attack Ichiro Hyuga were not defeated by Ichiro Hinata alone, then we should weigh Ichiro Hinata's strength first, and then take a look at the results of the trade-off!"
"If the results of the trade-off show that Hinata Ichiro's strength is amazing, then we should send information about Hinataichiro's strength back to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, and if the results of the trade-off show that Hinata Ichiro's strength is mediocre, then we should not send information about Hinata's strength back to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
"That's right!" said another senior member of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, "I also think I should wait a little longer for information about Hinata Ichiro's strength to be transmitted back to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village!"
"Lest Lord Thunder Shadow misjudge Konoha because of the wrong information we sent back!"
"Okay!" Hearing the two high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village say this, the high-level leaders of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village led by him thought for a moment and agreed, "It's right to be cautious!"
"However, when it comes to finding out if Ichiro Hinata is the only one to defeat the pawns we have sent, act quickly - after all, we don't have much time left!"
……
After communicating in the room for a long time, the high-ranking people of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village returned to their respective rooms to rest - it was already night, and for Konoha who had just had a sensitive incident, it was very suspicious for anyone from another village to appear on the streets.
And on the second day, through contact with the core chess pieces buried in Konoha in the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village, a group of high-level officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village learned about Hinata's independent capture of the sneak attacker.
Sensing Hinata Ichiro's amazing strength, the top officials of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village immediately transmitted information about Hinata's strength back to the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.

Konoha Interrogation Department.
"Do you have any clue about the identities of these sneak attackers?" asked the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department.
"......" Regarding the questioning of the three generations of Hokage, the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department was speechless with a hesitant expression.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department looked hesitant and refused to reply, the three Hokages asked aloud, "Don't you have any clue about the identities of these sneak attackers?"
"No!" said the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department, "Hokage-sama, regarding the identity of these sneak attackers, our Interrogation Department already has an eyebrow, but it's just ......"
Speaking of this, the head of the Konoha interrogation department stopped the following words.
Seeing this, the three generations of Hokage frowned, and said in a commanding tone, "Go on!"
"Yes!" Hearing the commanding tone of the three generations of Hokage, the head of the Konoha interrogation department immediately replied, "Three generations of Hokage, these sneak attackers are all our Konoha ninjas!"
Although the three generations of Hokage had vaguely guessed the identities of these sneak attackers before coming to the Konoha Interrogation Department, after hearing that the person in charge of the Konoha Interrogation Department confirmed the vague guess in his heart, the three generations of Hokage were still visibly shaken.
"Not a single one from the outer village?" asked the three Hokages, "All of these sneak attackers are our Konoha ninjas?"
"Yes!" replied the head of the Konoha interrogation department, "Hokage-sama, there is not a single person from the outer village, all of them are our Konoha ninjas!"
"What is the reason?" Seeing that the head of the Konoha interrogation department answered so affirmatively, the three generations of Hokage said angrily, "Since it is our Konoha ninja, then why did they sneak attack Ichiro!"
"Tell me the reason why these people attacked Ichiro!"
"I'm sorry!" said apologetically the head of the Konoha interrogation department, "We haven't interrogated the reason why these people attacked Hinata Ichiro!"
"Ichiro captured so many people alive, and none of them spoke?" asked the third Hokage.
"Yes!" said the head of the Konoha interrogation department.
"Since they're not ready to speak, why don't you want to find a way to hack into these people's minds to find out the information?" asked the third Hokage.
"Hokage-sama, it's not that we don't want to, it's that we can't!" said the head of the Konoha interrogation department, "Although these people are not in important positions, they are also people with official status after all!"
"Without Hokage-sama's approval, our interrogation department has no authority to invade these people's minds!"
"Then I'll give you permission to hack into these people's brains to find out the information!" said the third Hokage immediately.
"Yes!" said the head of the Konoha interrogation department, "Since Hokage-sama has allowed our interrogation department to invade these people's minds to obtain information, then our interrogation department will definitely live up to its trust!"
After saying that, when the person in charge of the Konoha interrogation department was about to ask someone to invite the clansmen of the Yamanaka clan, a staff member of the Konoha interrogation department ran over with a panicked face.
"What's wrong?" the head of the Konoha interrogation department asked unhappily, "Why are you panicking!"
"My lord, it's no good, the people who were just sent in for interrogation are all dead!" said the staff of the Konoha interrogation department with an anxious expression.
Hearing this, the face of the head of the Konoha interrogation department immediately became extremely ugly - he had just made a promise to the three generations of Hokage that he would live up to his trust, but reality gave him a hard slap.
Hearing this staff member of the Konoha Interrogation Department speak, it was not only the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department, but also a large number of people, including the three generations of Hokage.
"Come and take a look!" said the third Hokage immediately.
After speaking, without waiting for the head of the Konoha interrogation department to lead the way, the three generations of Hokage took the lead in rushing to the interrogation scene.
Then, the other people who reacted also hurriedly followed behind the three generations of Hokage.
……
Interrogation scene.
Looking at the sneak attackers who were killed by the timed suicide ninjutsu set in advance, whether it was the three generations of Hokage or others, their faces were quite gloomy - judging from the way these sneak attackers died, these sneak attackers were just pawns used to sacrifice, and there must be masterminds behind them, if you don't find out the masterminds behind the scenes, then no one can guarantee that the sneak attack will not happen again!
"Check!" said the third Hokage, "Give me a closer look, I want to see who wants to make waves in Konoha!"
"Yes!" Hearing the three generations of Hokage say this, the masked shadow personnel behind the three generations of Hokage immediately replied.
After answering, the masked undercover officer walked up to the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department - he needed to take over the bodies of these sneak attackers and some related intelligence materials from the head of the Konoha Interrogation Department.
Due to such a situation at the interrogation scene, the three generations of Hokage and his party, which were useless to stay in the interrogation department, left the Konoha interrogation department.

The next day.
Morning.
Hinata Hinata and Hinata Ichiro are communicating.
"Father-in-law, are all the sneak attackers dead?" After Hinata Hinata finished speaking, Hinata Ichiro asked in surprise, "Not a single one left alive?"
"Yes!" Hinata said, "all the live mouths you captured last night died at the same moment!"
"It seems that the person behind the scenes is not simple!" Hinata Ichiro said, "The ninjutsu of timed suicide is not something that anyone can have!"
"That's good!" Hinata Hinata first affirmed, then looked at Hinata Ichiro, and asked with some concern, "Ichiro, do you really have no clue about the sneak attack you encountered this time?"
"Father-in-law, I really don't have a clue!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Although I have broken some people's thoughts, it shouldn't be those people who have targeted me!"
"Ichiro, what do you mean by breaking someone's thoughts?" asked Hinata Hinata.
Hearing Hinata Hinata ask this, Hinata Ichiro informed Hinata Hinata of the dispute between the four core executives of Konoha about the question of the two tails of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village.
"Ichiro, it shouldn't be them!" After Hinata Ichiro finished speaking, Hinata Hinata thought for a while and said, "Although your position is inconsistent with theirs, they are not going to sneak up on you for the sake of a different position - it's not worth it!"
"Father-in-law, I think so too!" Hinata Ichiro said, "Besides, even if they want to deal with me, then knowing that I can capture the second tail of the Cloud Hidden Ninja Village alone, they shouldn't have sent that group of weak sneak attackers so hastily!"
Speaking of this, Hinata Ichiro asked, "Father-in-law, do you think it is possible to find out the mastermind behind this sneak attack on me this time?"
"Ichiro, don't worry!" Hinata Hinata said, "The mastermind behind the sneak attack on you will definitely be found!"
"Hearing my father-in-law say this, I'm relieved!" Hinata Ichiro said, "After all, there are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves!"
After that, Hinata Hinata and Hinata Ichiro chatted about other topics.
……
——————————
Ever since the third Hokage instructed the Shadows to take over the investigation of Hinata's attack at the Konoha Interrogation Department last night, the members of the Shadows have begun to enter into intense investigations.
Because the group of people who attacked Hinata Ichiro were all Konoha ninjas, the investigation method of the dark department was to start with the group of sneak attackers in Konoha's residence, background experience, and interpersonal relationships.
After some investigation, although the members of the dark department did not get valuable clues from the group of sneak attackers in Konoha's residence, they found something from their background experiences and interpersonal relationships.
It's a pity that although the members of the dark department found some clues about the sneak attackers in terms of background experience and interpersonal relationships, it only proved that the group of sneak attackers were tempted and co-opted by external forces and became traitors who stole the village's intelligence and betrayed them, and did not find out which external forces the sneak attackers had become pawns of which external forces.
In this regard, the three generations of Hokage were not satisfied, and once again ordered the dark department to continue the investigation.
Of course, while ordering the shadows to continue the investigation, the three generations of Hokage were still a little fortunate - since that group of sneak attackers was not in the key department, the information leaked through that group of sneak attackers did not threaten Konoha's core interests.
