Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 78 Hyuga Clan

As for those who are truly innocent, the interrogation methods of the Security Department are not as professional as those of the Anbu, so it is normal that they have not yet been found out.

After a day's work, Shisui found Uchiha Dohuan and asked Itachi to see the evidence.

After thinking for a while, Uchiha Douhuan agreed to Shisui's request.

After all, if these things could make Uchiha Itachi face reality, Uchiha Dohuan could save a lot of effort.

However, when Uchiha Dohan and Shisui went to find Uchiha Itachi, they got the news that Uchiha Itachi had already left.

After hearing the news, Shisui searched the village alone for a whole night, but Uchiha Itachi's strength had reached the level of an elite jonin, and he was hiding intentionally, so even Shisui could not find his whereabouts.

The next day, Uchiha Douhuan looked at Shisui's distraught look and understood what was going on.

"Didn't you find him?" Uchiha Douhuan asked.

"Yeah." Uchiha Shisui's face was filled with visible fatigue. He rubbed his brows lightly and said distressedly, "I don't know where that kid ran off to."

"Forget it, there's no need to look for him. It seems he has made what he thinks is the right choice." Uchiha Douhuan's eyes flashed.

"Doohwan..." Shisui pursed his lips and wanted to say something to defend Itachi.

"Shisui, don't you understand the Uchiha character? Now that he has made his choice, there will be no turning back." Uchiha Dohuan's voice also turned cold, "It seems that he didn't listen to what I said to him last time."

Uchiha Douhuan patted Shisui's shoulder and said, "If you're tired, go back and rest for half a day."

"Don't we need to worry about him anymore?" Uchiha Shisui was stunned when he heard that.

"No need." Uchiha Douhuan said coldly, "I told him that in the face of the general trend, the power of an individual is insignificant. It seems that he is very confident and wants to try to challenge it."

Shisui was speechless, shook his head helplessly, and sat back in his seat. At this time, Uchiha Douhuan looked out the window, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

……

In the following days, as the investigation progressed, the truth of what happened that year gradually came to light. Most of the victims were from some small ninja clans in the village with blood inheritance, such as the Moonlight clan who possessed the blood inheritance of Toutou. In the past ten years, three children had been killed by them.

After receiving justice and compensation, the families of the victims were naturally grateful to the Security Department. In contrast, the assets of the three clans of the Mito clan and the Shimura clan shrank by a full two-thirds, and the Shimura clan even returned to the time before the village was built overnight. Uchiha Touhan's series of actions captured most of the powerful members of the Shimura clan, leaving only a few Chunins and one special Jonin. This branch had clearly expressed its dissatisfaction with Danzo's continuous withdrawal of clan members into the Root when Danzo was still alive, and thus had been suppressed by the clan. This marginal branch can no longer even support the name of a ninja clan.

The Security Department, responsible for the interrogations, had also made astonishing progress. Over a dozen high-ranking members of the Utatane and Mito clans, including Kei Utatane, had confessed to all the crimes documented in the evidence. The entire investigation was nearing its conclusion. All that remained was a compilation of the interrogation records, which would be submitted to Sarutobi Hiruzen for review, and the final batch of seized clan property from the three clans distributed to the victims' families. This would conclude the matter successfully. "Everyone's been working hard lately," Uchiha Touhan said with a smile, clapping his hands in the interrogation room. "After we hand over this final batch of stolen goods to the victims, I'd like to invite everyone to gather. I've already booked a private room at BBQ Q, and I hope you'll all enjoy it."

"Captain Douhuan, you are too polite." Several Anbu who were sent here said hurriedly. In the past few days, they really experienced why the ninjas in the village said that the treatment in the security department was good.

During the past two days in the Security Department, in order to give an explanation to the victims as soon as possible, everyone worked overtime until very late every day, and they didn't think it was a big deal. Years of experience in the Anbu made them accustomed to working overtime on an empty stomach.

But from the first day they worked overtime, the Security Department prepared sumptuous supper for them every night to help them replenish their energy. This was not a big deal. What was more important was that Uchiha Douhuan paid them overtime pay directly according to the Security Department's salary standards. Their income in the past few days was almost as much as a month of hard work in the Anbu. This was a brand new experience they had never had in the Anbu.

And now, Uchiha Douhuan told them that there would be benefits after completing the mission, which made them flattered.

The last remaining batch of clan property seized from the three clans was worth about 1.5 million taels, accounting for about % of the total stolen goods. The remaining victims who had not yet been compensated were mostly from the Uchiha, Inuzuka, and Aburame clans, as well as some relatives of the Fourth Hokage who died in the Third Shinobi World War. It is not difficult to see that these things were the dividends left by Uchiha Dohuan for his own people.

In addition to these, there are also several members of the Hyuga clan on the list of victims.

Uchiha Douhuan picked out several of the best shops from the pile of confiscated land deeds, then took the Hyuga clan section of the victim list and said to the others in the interrogation room, "I'll personally deliver the Hyuga clan items. You guys take the rest to the victims' families according to the list, and then go to the barbecue Q and wait for me."

"Understood!" The members of the joint investigation team nodded one by one.

……

Uchiha Douhuan came to the door of the Hyuga clan leader's residence with the title deed and the list.

Uchiha Douhuan knocked on the door. When the branch family member guarding the clan gate opened the door and looked inside, he smiled and said, "Please tell the Hiashi clan leader that Uchiha Douhuan, the captain of the security team, is here to visit."

Hinata Hiashi, who had just finished teaching Hinata the family's soft fist technique, soon got the news.

"Captain of the security team?" Hinata Hiashi frowned slightly. If Uchiha Douhuan was just paying a normal visit, he should have called himself the head of the Uchiha clan. But now Uchiha Douhuan called himself the captain of the security team, so it was obvious that the other party came for official business.

"The family should have had no contact with the security team recently." Although he was full of doubts, since Uchiha Douhuan had already come to the door, there was naturally no reason to leave him outside.

Hinata Hiashi instructed the servants of the branch family to prepare tea for the guests, while he personally rushed towards the gate. No matter what, Uchiha Dohuan was the patriarch of the clan, and it was reasonable for him to go out and greet them in person.

"Chief Hiashi." Uchiha Douhuan greeted him with a smile when he saw Hinata Hiashi walking out of the door.

"Clan leader Douhuan, please." Hinata Hiashi also smiled standardly and invited Uchiha Douhuan into his home.
