Chapter 27

Just like now, Uchiha Jin couldn't speak, but he didn't have that pressure.

However, regarding this.

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't answer; instead, after a moment of silence, he took a deep breath and spoke in a calm tone.

"Alright, I understand."

"Uchiha Jin, you may go back."

"But don't let a single word of today's events get out."

"Go on."

Uchiha Jin didn't hesitate.

Hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, he knew in his heart that the matter here had nothing to do with him anymore.

Clearly.

He was not qualified to participate in the subsequent discussions.

After bowing slightly, Uchiha Jin turned and left.

And after he left the office, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the Anbu beside him.

"Shinnosuke, you tell them."

Shinnosuke Sarutobi, who was in the position of a subordinate to Hiruzen Sarutobi and was the Anbu captain, didn't hesitate and briefly explained what happened last night.

Immediately after, he spoke indifferently.

"The death of the three Uchiha is not actually a big deal."

"Under normal circumstances, this matter should be left to the Uchiha clan to decide."

"But, an accident occurred."

"Last night, beside these three Uchiha, there was also the corpse of a Kumo ninja."

"And what is even more bizarre is that the brains of both the three Uchiha and the Kumo ninja have been destroyed."

"Even if the Yamanaka Jonin from the Analysis squad personally takes action, he cannot view their memories."

"So, a problem has arisen."

"I don't know if everyone remembers that two years ago, Kumo sent a squad to Konoha to steal Kekkei Genkai, but after an investigation, it was discovered that one Kumo ninja had gone missing."

"At that time, the Yamanaka Jonin naturally probed the memories of all the captured Kumo ninjas."

"The coincidence has arrived."

"When the Yamanaka Jonin looked at the Kumo ninja corpse from last night, he determined that it was the Kumo ninja who went missing two years ago and whom we could never find."

"So, the question arises."

"Is this another move by Kumo?"

"Or did someone inside Konoha do it, and this so-called Kumo ninja corpse is just a distraction to confuse the investigation?"

"After all, since it involves Kumo, we must treat it with caution!"

"This is also the reason why Uchiha Jin was called in for questioning; after all, Uchiha Jin had a grudge against these three Uchiha."

In an instant.

Accompanied by Shinnosuke's words, everyone fell into silence.

Everyone was thinking.

After a long time.

Hiruzen Sarutobi put down his pipe and spoke in a low voice.

"Alright."

"The situation is as such; let's all discuss it."

"First, let's discuss whether there is a possibility that Uchiha Jin is involved in this?" ===== CHAPTER 28 =====
