Chapter 66: The Reference Room
When the fourth generation and the Nine-Tails fought fiercely, Kakashi Hachiki, who was a subordinate and former teammate, could not help.
It's not hard to imagine the blow to Kakashi Hagi.
There was a deathly silence in the room.
Even without speaking, Itachi Uchiha could clearly feel the deep sadness that came out of the man who had hidden almost his entire face under the mask.
"I'm sorry, Captain Kakashi. I'm just curious ... ”
"It's okay, I should thank you...
Kakashi Hachiki struggled to break free from that despair and said softly.
"No one has ever asked me this question. If no one ever mentions it again, I think I'm probably about to forget about it ... ”
He lowered his head, was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked:
"Why did you suddenly think to ask about this? You should have been five years old and probably remember it ... ”
I just heard the captain say that "Huang's" relatives died in the attack of the Nine-Tails, so I asked more... ”
Uchiha Itachi smiled, trying to break the heavy atmosphere,
"All I know is that many people blamed the Nine-Tails incident on the Uchiha clan afterwards. The village leadership neither confirmed nor denied it. Perhaps this is a big reason why many people are hostile to the Uchiha clan. ”
"You don't have to take the rumors to heart. The rumors stop at the wise man, the Uchiha clan is part of Konoha in the first place, and things are not as serious as they seem on the surface... ”
Kakashi Hachiki comforted,
"But the events of that night, from beginning to end, were weird...
Looking at Uchiha Itachi's blazing eyes, he hesitated for half a second and continued:
"There should be investigation materials on the night of the Nine-Tails attack in the data room, and if you really want to track down, you may be able to find some clues."
He suddenly thought of something, and shook his head again,
"However, those materials have been classified as top secret and cannot be accessed without the orders of Hokage-sama. So... ,Let him pass the past.。。。 ”
"Yes, Captain...
Itachi Uchiha had already gotten the answer he was looking for from Kakashi's words.
The two tacitly stopped discussing this matter, and the previous conversation seemed to have never happened.
。。。。。。。。
Itachi Uchiha has been joining the Shadows for a month.
In addition to the Hokage's office guard work and daily training with his teammates, Itachi Uchiha acted like an outsider, only watching others move in and out of the station, performing some covert missions.
Ever since he joined Kakashi's team, even Kakashi's team seems to have been treated with special treatment, and the tasks assigned to Kakashi's team are extremely ordinary.
Although he has always gotten along well with Captain Kakashi Hachiki, the attitude of the other shadow ninjas has become worse and worse.
And the "Tiger" of the same team follows Uchiha Itachi almost every day, which makes him feel like he is thorned in his back.
"There's information on the night of the Nine-Tails attack in the data room. . . ."
Kakashi Hachiki inadvertently gave him the information he most craved.
All I need now is a chance ...
If God doesn't give me this opportunity, then I'll create it myself...
He thought to himself.
。。。。。。。。
At the end of the day's boring work, Itachi Uchiha walked down the aisle at the edge of the driving range towards the exit.
The distance to the exit passage from where the office is located is not too far.
Turn right and you will see the dilapidated wooden door at the end of the road.
However, Uchiha Itachi chose the furthest path.
He went out and turned left, preparing to leave the road after going around the driving range for most of the circle, as he had done in the past.
The "tiger" hung like a tail, far behind him.
In the first few days, Uchiha Itachi's actions were unanimously ridiculed by the Shadow Ninjas.
All the ninjas in the training ground treated the black-haired boy who behaved strangely with idiot-like eyes and foul language that ordinary people could not tolerate.
But Uchiha Itachi ignored all of this.
Over time, many people gradually found it boring, and the laughter and scolding also decreased.
Of course, there are exceptions.
"Yellow" is one of them.
Insulting and provoking the Uchiha Itachi has become a daily necessity for him.
He showed extraordinary enthusiasm for this matter, and even took the initiative to extend his working hours.
The Uchiha Itachi calmly walked towards the end of the passage.
At the end of the passage, turn right and go straight and turn right again, he needs to walk twice as far before he can leave.
His gaze stayed on the small black door at the end of the straight.
There, the reference room.
A place where Konoha confidential information is stored.
Because of the importance of these materials, the data room was housed in the Shadow Quarters.
It is also only here that these confidential documents can be guaranteed not to be stolen.
Even in his previous life, Uchiha Itachi didn't have a chance to enter the data room.
The small black door seemed to be closed forever, and only when you passed very close to the small door could you detect the slight chakra fluctuations and human voices coming from inside.
The only thing he knows for sure is ...
The data room is guarded 24 hours a day.
It's just that he doesn't know the number of guards, their strength, and the time of shifts.
He had asked Kakashi Hachiki tentatively, but the answer he received was disappointing.
Even Kakashi, who had been in the shadows for many years, didn't know anything about the situation inside.
The only information I got from Kakashi Hachiki was that the data room was guarded by a team personally assigned by the three generations of Hokage Ape Tohichi.
"The Uchiha clan is really a place for freaks, and if there is a shortcut, you have to take a long way. Is it true that the Uchiha clan was born with rusty heads? . . ”
The insults of "Huang" rang out on time like a clock.
Itachi Uchiha continued on his way with a blank face, an level of insult that was as boring to him as a woman's spill.
"Yellow's" face became more and more difficult to look at, and Uchiha Itachi's attitude looked more like a silent insult.
He pondered angrily, and finally his gaze fell on the ninja who was far behind Uchiha Itachi, the "tiger" who was also a newcomer to the shadows.
"The masked kid, are you a dog raised by Uchiha's imps, following his ass every day...
Itachi Uchiha almost burst out laughing, sounding like "Yellow" had misunderstood the relationship between him and "Tiger".
"Tiger's" eyes were almost on fire.
He stopped, turned and glared at "Yellow" who was leaning against the railing at the edge of the driving range.
"Huang" was stabbed by his fierce gaze, but the smug look on his poker face became more and more intense.
