The days of being a puppeteer in Konoha

Chapter 214 Searching and searching
In the infirmary.

The children quickly lifted Izka onto the bed and began to frantically treat him.

Nono could no longer sit still after seeing everyone's unskilled techniques, and finally, he gritted his teeth and got up and walked over.

"Let me do it. I've learned a little bit of medical ninjutsu."

Nono asked as he checked Izuka's body.
"What on earth happened? How did Izka get injured like this?"

A young security guard named Eugene gritted his teeth and said:

"It's just his own fault."

"In order to find Atla and the others, he actually went to the mafia where he used to work to inquire about the situation."

"He had already cut ties with the other party when he left. Of course, it would turn out like this if he went to ask for help now."

"How can you say that!"

Another team member couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed Eugene by the collar and said angrily,

"The captain said that everyone in the orphanage is a family."

"He is also trying his best..."

Seeing this, the other team members began to persuade them to stop fighting, but Nono said in a rare serious tone:
"Izka needs to rest now, if you want to quarrel, go outside!"

"And the rest of you, get out too, and don't interfere with my healing work."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment when they heard this, but they finally obeyed and after looking at Izka again, they left the infirmary.

Only Nono, Izuka and the little girl who was responsible for helping were left in the room.

Nono also began to use medical ninjutsu to treat Izuka. He felt very uncomfortable when he saw that Izuka had marks of beating all over his body.

Because she knew very well that although Izka's intentions were good, they were doomed to be in vain.

How could an ordinary underworld organization have information about Yinhu's organization?

But she also knew that this kid was definitely not a fool since he could be promoted to the captain of the security team in a short period of time.

He should also know that the chances are very slim.

But for even a slight possibility, he acted without hesitation.

Just like what the kid just said, this is indeed stupid.

But Nono was extremely envious at this moment.

I envy the children for having someone willing to sacrifice so much for them, and I also envy Izka for having something he is willing to protect at his own risk.

Because no matter how harmless she pretended to be in the past, once Lord Danzo gave the order, she would still have to do something that would hurt the people around her.

After all, what she cares about most is herself.

The Rabbit who will do anything to survive is the underlying color of her personality.

And this mission, of course, will be no exception.

but……

Although Nono kept convincing himself.

But why did she still feel so conflicted in her heart?
……

At the same time, in the Hidden Leaf Village.

The news that a group of children from an orphanage had been abducted had spread throughout Konoha.

Because under the arrangement of Hideki's puppet clone, Konoha News is repeatedly broadcasting related news and issuing rewards for useful clues.

Everyone's reaction was slightly better than Hideki had imagined.

In addition to the entire police department being mobilized, many ninja clans also used their respective intelligence channels to help inquire about the situation, trying to do Hideki a favor.

Although the villagers could not help much, they were also vigilantly keeping an eye out for any suspicious people around them.

Especially because Nono did not appear on the morning news, everyone quickly learned about her injury, and everyone was outraged.

As a result, the entire Konoha turned into Chaoyang District.

Thanks to the reports from enthusiastic villagers, the police department actually uncovered a number of undercover agents and criminal dens in enemy villages.

Unfortunately, there was still little information about the key human trafficking organization, which made Fugaku, the captain of the police force, feel that something was wrong.

Because they were able to avoid the intelligence channels of the major ninja clans so perfectly, only the largest ninja clans and organizations in the village could do so.

No matter which force is found to be related to the human traffickers, it will cause a huge earthquake in the village.

Fugaku, who originally wanted to use this opportunity to revive the reputation of the Uchiha clan, is now somewhat discouraged.

The external environment of Konoha is so bad now that it can't withstand this kind of torment.

He just hoped that Xiu Shu, who had no idea where he was going, would stop while he was ahead and not get too involved in the matter...

……

In a small town near Konoha.

A young man in ragged clothes was walking in a dark alley, secretly paying attention to the gazes from all around him from time to time.

Even if you are a student of the Ninja School, if you don't look carefully, it would be difficult to recognize that this young man is the second son of the Hokage, Asuma Sarutobi.

Asma is certainly not running away from home now, but is pretending to be a wandering orphan.

The purpose, of course, is to attract the attention of human traffickers and then follow the clues to find the children in the orphanage.

He received so much help from Mr. Hideki last semester, but he did not give anything in return.

People even said that it was because he caused such a commotion during the final exam that Mr. Hideki lost the award for outstanding teacher.

So whether it was to repay his teacher or to prove himself, he certainly would not miss such a great opportunity.

In fact, many students had similar ideas. They spontaneously walked the streets, looking for suspicious people and places, and everyone looked like a human trafficker...

But he was different from his classmates who were still wandering around the village like headless flies. He knew that even if there really were human traffickers, it would be impossible for them to commit crimes in the village now.

That's why he secretly ran to this small town near Konoha to try his luck.

But I don’t know if this place is not far enough from Konoha, or if the other party has predicted his prediction.

Anyway, he had been strolling around for quite a while, and nobody came to attack him.

Now he was a little confused and didn't know what to do.

At this moment, a panicked girl's cry for help reached his ears:

"Wait, who are you and what do you want to do to me?"

Although he felt that the voice was a bit exaggerated, Asuma still hurried to the corner ahead where the voice came from.

"Let go of that girl!"

As Asuma was about to shout out this as he turned the corner, and then act out a heroic act to save the damsel in distress.

However, the scene before him surprised him.

I saw a few guys dressed as gangsters walking out cursing.

A girl in a dress hugged a gangster's thigh and refused to let him go, trying to keep him:
"Wait, why did you run away as soon as you saw my face?"

"You are human traffickers, right? Then show your professional ethics!"

The gangster who was dragging the girl couldn't help himself and swung his thigh and yelled:
"Get out of here, you ugly bastard!"

"You're so ugly. Even if we are really human traffickers, we won't be able to sell you for money after kidnapping you, and we'll even lose money on food expenses!"

Then everyone pulled and tugged, and finally pulled the girl away. They kicked her so hard that she lay on the ground with her arms and legs spread, and then they quickly ran away.

"Um...are you okay?"

Asuma was so stunned by the scene that he forgot to chase after those suspected human traffickers. He first came to the girl and asked kindly.

Of course, he was more out of curiosity, wanting to see how tragic this girl looked that made the human traffickers avoid her.

What he saw next was a heavily made-up face that would probably give him nightmares tonight.

And this isn't the kind of routine where you can turn into a beautiful girl by just wiping off the makeup. Judging from her facial features alone, this girl isn't that great at all.

And the more Asuma looked at him, the more he felt that this guy looked familiar...
