Chapter 33: Aoba's Brainstorming!
"You guys..."
"What a one-track mind!"
"Can't you use your brain more?"
"You can't even find an ally!"
"Not everyone in the Nara Clan is that smart!"
The corners of Aoba's mouth curled up into a disdainful smile. These people actually still needed to pay attention to evidence when they were doing things.
What era was this now?
A peaceful era?
A democratic society?
You actually want to use evidence to overthrow the Third Hokage...
Don't you know that the Third Hokage has a pot king as a shield?
Why don't you turn enemies into friends!
Don't you know that the King of the Pots also wants to take down the Third Hokage?
It really was...
Aoba didn't know what to say.
From the memories, he read from Yuta. They hadn't done anything else for the past 20 years and constantly competing with Danzo!
"I have to find a way to get myself out!"
Aoba raised his right hand and pinched his chin, putting on a pondering posture. His thoughts began to run quickly.
He understood through reading the memories.
Yuta did not want the truth, and he also did not want the answer.
He only wanted to expand the influence of this missing person case so that the Third Hokage would not be able to clean it up.
"Yuta came to find me because he felt that I would not speak nonsense. His goal was not to investigate the case, but to find a way to guide the case to the Third Hokage, or to create more cases!"
Through the memories, he saw and the contents of the meetings that these people talked about, Aoba gave a preliminary judgment.
Based on this judgment.
He realized even more deeply how this muddy water and he absolutely could not get involved!
"If I were Yuta, how would he pull me in?"
"What is the purpose of pulling me in?"
"Let me think..."
Aoba frowned slightly. He could not think of anything from his own perspective, and he wanted to put himself in Yuta's perspective.
Aoba calmed his mind in an instant, and Yuta's memories kept flashing back and forth in his mind.
Scenes after scenes, he quickly absorbed and analyzed them...
The idea was displayed in Tetsu's quotations!
The experiences and habits of handling cases over the years!
The core topics discussed in recent meetings!
And the scene that Yuta saw every time he saw him from the other perspective.
"If I were Yuta..."
Aoba rubbed his temples with both hands. This was the first time he had brought himself into the memories of others as much as possible to use other people's methods to make judgments and decisions.
"Yamanaka Aoba, this kid, is very tight-lipped. He can be used. I won't worry about our plan being exposed, but this kid is too cautious. I need some methods to use!"
The look in Aoba's eyes gradually became sharp.
"If it's not this kid's mission, this kid won't accept anything. If I want to use this kid, I have to let him have a mission."
"The key to having a mission is Konohagakure Intelligence Division's, Captain Eaton. I have to give a mission through Eaton."
"Eaton doesn't have the qualifications to investigate the missing person case. Then I have to investigate other cases to attract the missing person case."
"That's why we need to commit the crime!"
"We need to do a case that is different from the people disappearance case so that this case can enter Konohagakure Intelligence Division. Then, through my Yuta's qualifications, if this kid doesn't know, let Eaton hand the case over to this kid."
"As long as there is a mission, this kid will investigate. The mission can't be designed too hard so that he can find the person who committed the crime without too much effort."
"..."
"Then how do we connect the culprit with the missing people case?"
Aoba has begun brainstorming. He started to calculate from the Root Organization, and at this point, he hesitated for a moment.
"Yes!"
"Let the culprit go missing!"
"This way, the person who committed the crime will become a part of the missing people case!"
"But if it's just this, it's enough to be directly caught by the Root. That kid is useless!"
"Then let's be a bit more ruthless!"
"Point the missing clues to Root and spread rumors among the people, claiming that the people at Root are suspects."
"When that time comes, that silly boy will investigate Root and the missing people case. As long as we reveal some false evidence, we can directly point the spearhead at Third Hokage."
Aoba's eyes became clear again, and his eyes were full of caution and calmness.
"Good guy!"
"Such a good guy!"
"Maybe there are some minor details that are different. That should be what they think."
"I will become the gun they used to snipe the third Hokage."
"In this way."
"No matter what the final result is."
"I will thoroughly offend Danzo for Third Hokage or even Orochimaru!"
"This is the human heart!"
Aoba, relying on his near-paranoia and his deduction based on memory information and had almost seen through Yuta and Tetsu's plans.
"I'm sorry."
"Whoever wants to do this gun can do it."
"I won't do it."
"I won't offend Danzo."
"I won't offend the Third Hokage."
"Including you, Yuta, and Tetsu, I will not offend them."
"This kind of political struggle."
"You guys can play by yourselves!"
Aoba's eyes became determined, and he immediately recovered from his thoughts. He immediately got up, opened the dormitory door, and walked towards Konohagakure Intelligence Division's small black room.
The whole thing had a key to breaking it.
It was a mission.
As long as there was no mission, everything would be in vain.
Since he found the key, let's start with the key!
Ten minutes later.
Aoba arrived at Konohagakure Intelligence Division's small black room.
Before he could walk over, he heard screams coming from inside.
At this moment, Eaton was interrogating a man.
The man was tied to a wooden stake. His skin was torn, and his flesh was badly mutilated. However, he did not say any words to beg for mercy or reveal any information.
"Captain Eaton!"
Aoba walked to the door of the small black room and immediately saw Eaton, who was holding a small whip in his hand and wearing a black trench coat.
"Aoba?"
After hearing the voice, Eaton turned to look at Aoba, his eyes flashing with doubt. He asked, "Didn't you ask for leave? Why are you here?"
"I have something to discuss with you."
Aoba whispered.
"Okay."
Eaton rubbed his wrist. It just so happened that he was tired of whipping people. He threw the little whip in his hand on the ground and then walked towards Aoba.
"What is it?"
Eaton asked curiously. In his impression, Aoba had always been a very worry-free person. After entering Konohagakure Intelligence Division, he had never looked for him because of personal problems.
"Captain Eaton, it's like this. I have been carefully interrogating prisoners for the past six months, and my head is full of negative things, which makes me very tired."
Aoba put on a pitiful look. After reading Yuta's memory, he had awakened the talent for acting.
"So I want to ask for leave from you to rest for a few months!"
"I want to help the village do some charity in this period of time, purify the heart, and feel the warmth of the world!"
"Moreover, I want to have more time to exercise my body so that I can fight for Konohagakure Intelligence Division's career for a hundred years with a more full and energetic appearance!"
