Chapter 36 The Dirty Natsume Utatami
Chapter 36 The Dirty Natsume Utatami
One corpse after another was dragged out.
Each body had no markings related to Konoha, but the corpses were relatively intact, and many of them were immediately recognizable!
Actually, when the second body was brought out, Yuki turned his head and noticed that a lot of villagers had rushed over to watch the commotion outside the gate.
The secret agents realized something was wrong and quickly appeared to maintain order, attempting to disperse the crowd of onlookers inside the building. Even the troublemakers were driven aside.
But it didn't work!
The secret service has four squads, one of which is stationed at the hospital.
It sounds like they're well-prepared, with a full quarter of the Dark Guard's forces stationed there to guard against any unexpected events.
In fact, the official organization of the Konoha ANBU squad consists of only seventeen people.
One squad leader, plus four classes with sixteen members.
Of course, the number of temporary workers, informants, and secret agents is counted separately.
Inside and outside the hospital, there were thousands of people, both causing trouble and watching the commotion!
Unless the Water Dragon Bullet technique is used, the seventeen people will fall into the crowd without even making a splash.
Obviously, the Anbu couldn't use ninjutsu to attack the villagers.
At the very least, you can't do something like that in front of the Hokage.
"No..." Upon seeing the Anbu appear, Utatane Natsumi's limbs went weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
"Jonin Utatane, how could you do this?"
She ran over quickly and helped Yuuki Utatamine up, her face full of anger. "The village has treated you well, why did you harm your comrades?"
"I thought you were just disobeying Lady Tsunade, but it turns out you had another scheme!"
With the discovery of the corpse completely exposed, Utatane Natsumi could only pray that Elder Koharu would save her while simultaneously feigning indifference and mocking others.
"You think you're so great, so arrogant! You're just lucky, born into a wealthy family, you had everything from birth. And me? What do I have?"
Yuuki sneered: "Say those words to the victims' families!"
"Evacuate the villagers! Evacuate them quickly!"
Uchiha Tomishi led the police department into Konoha Hospital and ordered several squads to evacuate the crowd.
The rioting crowd pushed and shoved into the hospital.
Upon hearing the news, Fu Cheng jumped out of bed and immediately led his team to the hospital.
They were stopped by the secret service as soon as they reached the entrance of the medical building.
They were only allowed to enter now.
The surrounding crowd quieted down when they saw a group of people with 'pink eyes' rushing in.
Make way for Uchiha Fusei to enter.
"What on earth happened?!"
Tomioka's gaze fell on Yuuki and Natsume Utatane.
"Minister Fu Cheng!"
Using job titles is a basic quality of working people.
Yuuki pointed at the corpses on the ground, his tone somewhat agitated: "I found a hole in the hospital, but Jonin Utatane kept obstructing the investigation of the hole, and in the end we found the bodies of many of our comrades!"
"Jonin, what do you want to say?"
Tomioka is actively aligning himself with Hiruzen Sarutobi, and is also quite polite to the Utatane family.
Turning to the next room, Mu Xia snorted twice and forced herself to say, "I... have nothing to say. None of this has anything to do with me."
You two both have the surname Uchiha, so you're in the same group. What are you pretending to me for?
Fu Cheng's face darkened. "With your attitude, I'm in a difficult position!"
"Take him away! Interrogate him!"
If it's too difficult, then let's not do it!
Fu Cheng, his face dark with anger, completely forgot that the police department did not actually have the authority to interrogate ninjas.
But the scene was chaotic, the ANBU were busy evacuating the crowd, and Yuuki was full of anger, so no one reminded him.
Yuuki reminded him:
"Personally, I think Jonin Natsume Utatane is not simple. Perhaps she chose suicide to hide a deeper darkness. Captain, remember to interrogate her quickly and don't drag it out too long. If someone tipes off us, all our efforts will be in vain!"
“I know.” Fu Cheng gave Yu Shu a deep look.
Who would have thought that sickly boy would already possess such power!
However, based on the bodies on the ground, they were indeed all fellow villagers.
From this perspective...
If we can pry some information out of Natsume Utatamine, we'll definitely gain the Hokage's favor!
Fu Cheng confidently escorted Mu Xia back to the police department prison.
Yuuki watched the main characters leave, marking the end of the main plot of the hospital scene.
"Everyone!"
Yuuki stood on the podium at the very center of the medical building, looking solemnly at the restless crowd.
Everyone who saw Yuuki's expression would immediately fall silent.
If they can't stay still, even the poison-destroying ants know a little bit about biting!
Soon, the entire hospital fell silent.
"Everyone must be very confused as to why such a gruesome sight as a pile of corpses would be found in such a sacred place as Konoha Hospital. To be honest, I don't understand it either!"
We, Konoha, are the most powerful ninja village in the ninja world! We, Konoha, have the most comprehensive management system! We, Konoha, possess the safest land for survival!
No one is allowed to compromise our safety!
Now, we must not panic; we must trust the most powerful Third Hokage.
No matter what, they will give us an explanation! They will give all the villagers an explanation!
Yuuki was very satisfied; the people's will was clear, so he was going to give the strongest Hokage a boost!
...
A man who says he'll be fast, should be fast!
Uchiha Tomioka completed the interrogation with lightning speed.
Under the watchful eyes of more than ten pairs of three-tomoe jade pendants, Natsumi Tsurugi knelt down with lightning speed.
Upon seeing the interrogation results, even Fu Cheng, who had some mental illness, felt that he was absolutely a normal person!
How could there be such a wicked person from Konoha?
Why would someone commit such a heinous act against their own compatriots?
I dare not delay.
Fu Cheng hurriedly took the scroll and set off to report.
As soon as I reached the door of the Hokage's office, I heard arguing and the sound of tables being slammed coming from inside.
He secretly wondered, "The only person who would dare to slam their fist on the table in the office is Princess Tsunade, right?"
It seems that Yuuki and Tsunade have a good relationship?
Pushing open the door, Fu Cheng walked to the desk and handed a scroll to the Anbu with both hands: "Hokage-sama, this is Natsume Utatane's confession."
Hiruzen Sarutobi was taken aback for a moment, his face darkened slightly, and he gave a soft "hmm".
This Fu Cheng isn't as honest as I thought!
He took the scroll and examined it carefully without making a sound.
It must be said that Uchiha Tomishi is quite capable, daring to interrogate prisoners in an emergency.
The scroll concisely and clearly described Natsumi Utatane's crimes, without retaining any superfluous text.
Unlike some departments, which start by praising the "Will of Fire" and then exclaiming "the Hokage's brilliant leadership."
However, when Hiruzen Sarutobi looked closer, his expression froze for a moment.
The case that comes into view is a major one.
That is, the case of "one person eating from both ends" that Yuuki discovered.
This is also the reason why there are so many corpses in the hospital!
The method of committing the crime was not complicated. Simply put, it was to "eat" the family members and then "eat" the village!
Konoha stipulates that the descendants of ninjas who die in battle will receive a pension, and ninjas injured in the line of duty will receive a medical allowance.
Both disbursements require certification from Konoha Hospital.
Using her power, Natsumi Utatane targeted ninja families with simple social connections, falsely claiming that the deceased was still receiving treatment, and tricked the children into signing their consent, thereby embezzling the compensation and medical expenses.
Later, too few of the deceased met the criteria.
Turning to the dormitory, Mu Xia deliberately treated the dead and wounded, charging their families for medical treatment, and informing them that the deceased were not killed in action and therefore would not receive any compensation or subsidies. Some of the children didn't even know about compensation.
After reading it once, Hiruzen Sarutobi had an even worse feeling about it.
These families were almost all ordinary ninja families.
Turning a group of children into orphans, especially those with ninja talent...
Where were they finally sent?
Is the deceased's body still intact?
Hiruzen Sarutobi handed the scroll to Koharu Utatane without saying a word.
Her eyes widened. Was this the same kind-hearted person who always gave her whatever she wanted?
Koharu, the girl in the Utatane-kun room, stammered, "This isn't right... Utatane-kun's Meka would be this bold? And... the location where the body was buried... it's too conspicuous!"
As expected of an advisor elder, he found the suspicious points in just a few glances.
Tsunade snatched the scroll, and after reading it, she had no interest in arguing and turned to walk out of the office!
It turns out that not all medical ninjas aspire to study medicine.
Perhaps, in the eyes of this group of people, people are not 'people', but 'goods'!
