Chapter 287
But who would have thought that to Bee's inquiry, Mizunuki Ryosuke still shook his head indifferently, with a mysterious look.
"Then what exactly is it?"
A trace of seriousness flashed in Bee's heart; even though he had been "set up" by Ryosuke repeatedly today, Bee still felt that the unfathomable Fourth Mizukage must have deep meaning in every move.
"It's very simple."
"We've eaten, and it's dark."
"So it's time to sleep."
Mizunuki Ryosuke said seriously, and his sincere expression couldn't see any sign of joking at all.
"You!!!"
At this moment, Bee was almost choked by a breath and almost passed out.
Seeing Bee's expression, a trace of joy finally flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes, which also meant that his bad taste was finally satisfied to a certain extent.
"Let's go."
At this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke stood up directly and walked toward an ordinary hotel on the street of the Land of Frost.
Looking at Ryosuke's back, a black aura radiated from Bee's whole body.
But in the end, he could only shake his head helplessly and choose to follow Mizunuki Ryosuke's pace.
Although Mizunuki Ryosuke still walked forward indifferently, at an angle Bee couldn't see, the corners of Mizunuki Ryosuke's mouth gradually lifted an arc.
This was a small hotel; perhaps because there was no business, the hotel boss was dozing off on the hotel counter in boredom.
And seeing the arrival of several people, a sharp light flashed in the hotel boss's eyes, and he immediately greeted them enthusiastically.
Bee glanced at the hotel boss before him—a thin, balding, worldly middle-aged man.
Soon, under the arrangement of the boss, the four people stayed in three rooms.
Mizunuki Ryosuke naturally wanted to live in a room alone, Kaguya Yuta lived next door to Mizunuki Ryosuke, and Bee and Troy lived in one room together.
Ordinary hotel, ordinary boss, ordinary everything.
Bee secretly made such a comment in his heart.
That night, the scenery outside the window was pitch black, and the time had come to the dimmest moment of the day.
Although it was very late, Mizunuki Ryosuke still had no intention of resting; he stood quietly by the window, looking at the pitch-black outside, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Knock knock!!"
Suddenly, Mizunuki Ryosuke's door was knocked slightly.
He turned around, raised a finger slightly, and the pitch-black shadow immediately condensed into substance, pulled the door handle, and opened the door.
In the dark night, the omnipresent shadow is the most convenient tool.
A quiet figure walked slowly into Ryosuke's room.
"Mist Chunin, Honda Yuichi."
"Greetings, Mizukage-sama!"
At this moment, the quiet shadow knelt on one knee directly, and said to Mizunuki Ryosuke with an excited voice.
"No need for formalities, get up."
Mizunuki Ryosuke said slowly with a peaceful voice, while saying this, he placed his gaze on the figure kneeling before him.
The thin body, the bald head, and the worldly aura revealed all over his body—it was exactly the boss of this hotel.
"Chunin Honda, how did the things I entrusted you to do go?"
A glimmer of light flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes as he asked Honda Yuichi, who was the hotel boss in name but a Mist Chunin in reality.
"Yes!!!"
Hearing this, Honda Yuichi immediately responded with an excited tone, and then told all the intelligence Mizunuki Ryosuke needed one by one.
Perhaps it was because he didn't expect to see the Fourth Mizukage in such a place, Honda Yuichi's tone was always a bit excited.
"..."
For a long time, Mizunuki Ryosuke nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you for your hard work, Chunin Honda."
Mizunuki Ryosuke said softly, with a hint of praise in his eyes.
"You are too kind, my lord!"
"This is what I should do!"
"Being able to contribute to you and the village is already the greatest honor for us sinful people."
Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's words, Honda Yuichi immediately bowed to the ground; because he was too excited, his body was trembling uncontrollably.
"There is no need to mention the past; you will always be a part of the village."
"The village will not forget the contributions you have made to the village."
A trace of praise flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes, and his tone was also full of encouragement.
"Chunin Honda, your son graduated from the ninja school last year."
"He is very excellent and will surely become a good ninja in the future."
"Don't worry, the village will arrange for your family."
But subsequently, Mizunuki Ryosuke said again, and the meaning in his words was unusual.
"Yes!!"
"Thank you, Mizukage-sama!"
Honda Yuichi immediately responded, and a trace of complexity and peace flashed in his eyes.
For someone like him, this was already the best result; what else could he ask for?
After all, in the eyes of the village, he was already a dead ghost.
To this, Mizunuki Ryosuke just patted Honda Yuichi on the shoulder.
Mercy does not command soldiers; he naturally could not fully trust these spies who were far away from the emperor, so he naturally had to prepare some measures for counter-control.
This conversation, combining kindness and power, was his appeasement to Honda Yuichi.
When Mizunuki Ryosuke succeeded as the Fourth Mizukage, there was once a difficult problem placed before him.
That was, how should these Mist Anbu ninja who followed Yagura Karatachi to launch the rebellion be handled? Especially some die-hards who were once loyal to Yagura Karatachi.
To this, Mizunuki Ryosuke chose to only execute the evil leaders, and the others were released directly on the spot.
Even so, the former Mist Mist Anbu was almost an iron bucket under Yagura Karatachi's management, and a considerable part of the ninja within the Mist Anbu maintained a very close distance to Yagura Karatachi.
According to Mizunuki Ryosuke's handling method, hundreds of people were still inevitably implicated.
For this part of the ninja, Mizunuki Ryosuke made two arrangements.
Those who were stubborn were executed on the spot.
And those who felt guilty and sincerely repented, Ryosuke gave them a chance.
At that time, it happened to be the establishment of the White Shark Unit, and Mizunuki Ryosuke secretly recruited these ninja.
Externally, the Mist would announce the death of these ninja; but in reality, these ninja would serve as scouts for the White Shark Unit, go to various countries to lurk, and provide intelligence for the White Shark Unit.
Honda Yuichi was one of them.
With the development over the years, the intelligence network of the White Shark Unit had already covered the entire ninja world.
Even in a small country like the Land of Frost that no one cares about, there were White Shark members arranged in advance to lurk here.
In fact, the restaurant Mizunuki Ryosuke had been to before was also one of the strongholds of the White Shark Unit.
Ryosuke went there specifically to give the intelligence content that needed to be investigated, giving the dark scouts of the White Shark Unit time to investigate the intelligence he needed.
And it was such an arrangement that allowed Mizunuki Ryosuke to obtain extremely important intelligence at this moment.
