Chapter 197

~4 min read 627 words

Uchiha Jin's expression was calm.

Even though he had just ordered an arrest, he still wore a warm smile on his face.

Obviously.

For him, he really didn't take such a small scene to heart.

Want to target him?

Do they really think he's one of those stupid Uchiha!

Yes.

Although there hadn't been an investigation yet, he had long concluded in his heart that these three guys were either from the Hokage's Anbu or Danzo's Root.

Since that's the case, what the hell is there to be afraid of!

Arrest them, then.

Anyway, they were already enemies; as long as he was within the rules, he wasn't afraid of fighting the Hokage faction.

He really didn't believe Sarutobi Hiruzen would dare to tear off the mask!

And, on the other side.

Perhaps because of the warm smile on Jin's face, the originally panicked Konoha villagers also began to calm down slowly.

Subsequently.

When everyone looked at the three arrested people again, they instantly began to discuss.

"I don't recognize these three people!"

"I haven't seen them either, how about you?"

"Don't recognize them!"

"..."

The Konoha villagers spoke one after another.

Everyone shook their heads; there wasn't a single person present who recognized the three people who had been arrested.

Seeing this scene.

A faint smile curled on Uchiha Jin's lips.

"Everyone, you should have all seen it." Uchiha Jin spoke faintly: "I felt very strange just now; it's just a mere thief."

"Whether we caught the right one or the wrong one, it shouldn't have caused such a big commotion."

"When things are abnormal, there must be demons, and the three guys I caught are the ones who were constantly sowing discord in the crowd just now."

"We'll talk about the thief later."

"I now suspect that these three guys are highly likely to be spies from enemy villages."

"So I want to interrogate these three people first, and I hope all the villagers can understand."

He had a smile on his face.

His words were also quite polite, almost giving everyone face.

Countless Konoha villagers naturally nodded repeatedly.

They were not unreasonable people.

In a world like the Hokage's, ninjas are the privileged class.

The Uchiha are even more of a powerful clan.

Perhaps behind their backs, with the village's support, they dared to secretly speak ill of the Uchiha.

But, on the surface.

No one dared to ignore the Uchiha, let alone Uchiha Jin, who was a high-ranking Uchiha and the Police Force Chief.

Being able to speak to you in a friendly manner was already giving you quite a lot of face.

"Yes, I support it!"

"I felt something was wrong just now; so they were spies from enemy villages."

"..."

The Konoha villagers nodded repeatedly.

And after obtaining everyone's consent, he turned his gaze to the three of them.

His tone was very flat.

"Speak, who are you?" Uchiha Jin said softly: "As long as you can prove that you are Konoha villagers."

"I, Uchiha Jin, will personally apologize to you!"

But, silence!

Facing Uchiha Jin's question, none of the three people who had been arrested had any intention of speaking.

At the same time, they were not panicked.

They even looked at Uchiha Jin with eyes full of disdain and mockery.

However.

They didn't know that Uchiha Jin hadn't expected them to speak.

Just by looking at their calm and composed demeanor, he was completely certain in his heart.

These three were not spies.

They were either from Root or Anbu!

It seems he guessed right.

This seemingly farcical thief-catching event today was deliberately orchestrated by the Hokage faction.

However, what was the purpose?

To test him? To ruin his reputation?

But even if they succeeded, what could they gain?
