Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Chapter 44: Danzo, I Need an Explanation!

"Fugaku, are you sure?"

Konoha Military Police Force's ninjas immediately looked at the young man who had just spoken.

The outline of this young man's face was clear, and he looked quite handsome. His long black hair was refreshing and elegant, and his whole body exuded a kind of spirit that could not be concealed.

Under the gaze of the Police Force's ninjas around him, the young man was not nervous at all. He nodded to confirm.

"I have seen his photos."

"As long as I have seen it, I will not be mistaken."

"This corpse..."

"It is Taichi!"

The young man said firmly, his tone full of confidence.

This young man was the rising star of the Uchiha clan of Konohagakure, Uchiha Fugaku.

"It seems that the disappearance case is not simple!"

Konoha Military Police Force's Captain sighed and then began to carry out the order in an orderly manner.

"Now, you will be divided into three teams."

"First team, you are responsible for salvaging the body and sending it to Konoha's hospital for identification, confirming the cause of death and the specific time of death."

"Second team, you are responsible for sealing the scene and see if you can find any clues."

"Third Team, immediately search for the river source and in the woods to see if there are any other corpses."

"Move out immediately!"

Konoha Military Police Force's Captain immediately ordered.

"Yes!"

After Police Force's ninjas responded, their figures flashed, and they went to do their own things.

...

At the side of the river, Konohagakure's people watched as Police Force worked.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. The village hasn't been peaceful recently, and not only do people often go missing, but now some people are dead. It's really terrible!"

"I think that our Konoha Military Police Force doesn't work well. They just take care of capturing people and don't do their duty to maintain law and order."

"Did you hear that? Just now, Konoha Military Police Force's people said that this body was the one who went missing during this period of time."

"In this way, it seems that the missing people are in danger!"

"I wonder when we will they be able to catch the murderer!"

"..."

The crowd of onlookers discussed. Initially, many people did not think too much about it, but after hearing the discussion of others, they began to worry and began to panic.

...

Not long after.

The case of corpses floating in Konohagakure's River had spread throughout the village.

As the saying goes, good things don't leave their names, and bad things spread for thousands of miles.

All the places were discussing this matter that shook the village people, and under the embellishment of some good people, it evolved into many versions, causing an extremely bad impact.

After all.

The unknown was the most terrifying thing!

...

In the afternoon, In Hokage's Office.

The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was in a hurry for an emergency meeting.

The people attending the meeting consisted of many Division Captain who maintained the security of the village. One of them was Konoha Military Police Force.

"What's the specific situation?"

The Third Hokage asked with a frown.

"It's like this."

Konoha Military Police Force's Captain took a step forward and reported in a deep voice.

"This morning, we found a floating corpse in the river of the village. After confirming the identity, it was Taichi who disappeared a few days ago. According to the identification of the medical ninja of Konoha, the time of death was between 8 to 12 o'clock last night. The reason was that he was hit in the head by a blunt weapon, and there were traces of binding on his body. It was suspected that he was killed when he broke free from the bondage."

Police Force said in a deep voice.

"This matter has something to do with the missing people case?" Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly, hiding the look in his eyes.

"I suspect it has something to do with it."

Konoha Military Police Force captain nodded.

"Then let Danzo deal with it."

Hiruzen nodded slowly, his eyes focused on Danzo. He took a deep look at Danzo and said, "Since they are related to the disappearance case, then investigate it together!"

"Yes."

Danzo replied indifferently without any expression.

"But..."

Konoha Military Police Force's Captain wanted to say something, but the Third Hokage interrupted him.

"This matter is settled."

Hiruzen waved his hand and turned to pick up the pipe on the table. He held it in his mouth and picked up a match. After igniting a flame, he lit the pipe.

Hiruzen took a deep breath. The smoke grass seeped into his lungs and slowly overflowed from his nostrils.

"You have worked hard during this period of time."

Hiruzen glanced at the Konoha Military Police Force's Captain and nodded gently.

"What you need to do now is to calm down the public opinion of the village. You can't let this panic continue to ferment. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

Konoha Military Police Force Captain immediately responded. He frowned and felt that something was wrong, but he did not say it out loud.

"Dismissed."

Hiruzen waved his hand and ended the meeting.

The people in the office of the Hokage dispersed one after another.

Many of them, including other Division Captain, who was in the meeting, left without speaking.

"Something is wrong!"

The Captain from the medical division muttered to himself as he walked out.

"This is no longer a simple missing person case, and it is a murder case that has caused such a big impact. Shouldn't we send more Ninjas to investigate? Why are we handing it over to Anbu?"

The Captain from the medical division was puzzled. He had doubts about Hiruzen's decision but only dared to mutter to himself and did not dare to say it out loud.

Of course, he was not the only one who had the same feeling.

The people attending the meeting more or less felt that the way they handled this matter was a bit sloppy.

...

At this moment, only Third Hokage Hiruzen and Danzo were left in the office.

"Danzo, I need an explanation!"

Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

"What explanation?"

Danzo's tone was very indifferent.

"Why did someone die?"

Hiruzen suddenly opened his eyes wide, holding a pipe in his right hand, not wanting to smoke any more.

"It's normal for people to die from human experiments."

Danzo said slowly.

"I'm not talking about dying from experiments, but how did that person die in the river? Are you trying to catch him by force?"

There was anger in Hiruzen's tone, and he said sharply, "How many times have I told you? When doing experiments, you need to find volunteers, and you can't forcibly take people to do experiments."

"You are too idealistic. How many volunteers do you think there will be? No one is willing to sacrifice themselves. How can we do the experiment?"

Danzo sneered. Every time this happened, he felt that the Third Hokage was too pedantic.

"I don't want to see such a thing happen again. If there is another time, no matter if there is any progress in the experiment, I will call for the cloning of Hashirama cells to be stopped!"

Hiruzen said coldly.

He had been thinking about this for a long time and no longer wanted to continue this experiment, and this event just gave him a reason.

...

In the Anbu dormitory.

Aoba had already returned to his dormitory and was lying on the bed, waiting for his vacation...
