Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 28 Police Department

This place was the junction of the inside and the outside, with many people coming and going. Sima Yi saw more than ten people coming in and out of this shop in just the time it took to finish a bowl of soup.

Unexpectedly, the woman sighed and said, "I can't make much money, I can only make enough to eat and wear."

Then he said nothing more and handed the change to Sima Yi.

Seeing this, Sima Yi left the shop without asking any further questions.

"Would you like some apples, gentlemen? This is the last batch of apples this year, shipped from the capital. The Hokage-sama said they were delicious after eating them."

"Apples? There are actually apples that are so well preserved in this season."

As soon as they walked out of the shop, they were stopped by a fruit vendor. The vendor was wearing a headscarf and looked festive.

"That's right. In order to transport these apples here, we have asked many ninjas to help. You two can buy some and take them back to taste!"

Sima Yi took an apple. Although he said that it was well preserved, in fact, the apples were already dehydrated.

But he did not refuse, but asked: "How much?"

"Not much, not much, just one hundred taels!"

"A bowl of mutton soup costs eighty taels, so a pound of apples costs only one hundred taels, which is really not much."

"One catty? No, no, no, old man, you misunderstood. It's one hundred taels each!"

Sima Yi looked at the wilted apple in his hand, then looked at the vendor with a festive look on his face, and after a moment of silence, he finally bought ten.

crunch~
Hui was carrying something and chewing an apple, and he said with a look of disgust: "This thing is dry and not tasty."

"Leave it for Shisui. He's still growing, so it would be nice for him to have some fruit."

"Shisui, that's true. Ever since the clan sent him to the Hokage, he has been either on a mission or on his way to a mission. I guess he hasn't had a hot meal for many times."

Hui shook his head and sighed. The number of tasks Shisui completed in one year was equivalent to what he had completed in the past twenty years. He was really working very hard.

thump~
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from about ten meters away from the two of them.

The sudden movement immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all leaned forward.

"Let's go and take a look." Sima Yi was also interested and followed the crowd.

"Hey, uncle, slow down, be careful of the crowd!"

The two followed the crowd to the center of the street. When they looked closely, they saw two young ninjas wearing the Uchiha clan emblem surrounded in the middle. They were wearing police uniforms and their faces looked very ugly.

There was also a wealthy middle-aged man lying on the ground, screaming in pain and grabbing the coins scattered around him.

In addition to some coins, there were a lot of leather clothes and an overturned stall on the ground.

"Another Uchiha, why is this happening?"

"How annoying! These Uchiha are bullying us again."

"Damn it, why are these people still in Konoha? Lord Hokage should kick them out."

“They are just doing what they are supposed to do.”

Hearing the noisy discussions in his ears, Hui's face changed. He frowned and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Sima Yi.

Sima Yi's expression was calm. He pulled Hui to a corner and watched quietly.

"what happened?"

As more and more people gathered around, police from other streets soon arrived.

The leader was wearing a tight black combat uniform with green Jonin mail on the outside. The Uchiha clan emblem was embroidered on both shoulders and he had a strange short brown hair.

This person is none other than Uchiha Yashiro, the captain of the second division of the police department!
Sima Yi narrowed his eyes slightly. He had seen this man yesterday, just behind the Great Elder. Seeing the arrival of the Uchiha Jonin, the people around him made way for him.

"team leader!"

"team leader!"

The two people who were surrounded also breathed a sigh of relief and immediately stepped forward and said, "Captain, we received a report that someone was illegally occupying the road and setting up a stall here. After we came here, we wanted him to leave immediately, but he refused to leave no matter what, so we had to..."

"I didn't, you're talking nonsense. I was just passing by and taking a break here, and you came up and overturned my stall. You are ninjas, how can you bully an ordinary person like me like this!"

Before the member of the police department could finish his words, the wealthy man who was still screaming in pain on the ground suddenly shouted, and then started crying again.

"I just want to sell some clothes to earn some money to buy some good food for the children who came back from the front. Why are you trying to cut off my livelihood like this?"

The roars accompanied by cries moved everyone, especially those whose family members had just returned from the front lines, who could relate to the situation.

"He's just selling some stuff. If you don't like him, there's no need to rip his stall off!"

"That's right, the Uchiha people always enforce the law violently like this."

"Get them out of Konoha!"

"You guys"

The young man became furious upon hearing this, and pointed at the wealthy man while shaking all over, his Sharingan involuntarily opening.

Another teenager beside him clenched his fists and said, "It was you who reported it, and then we came to manage it. How can it be our fault?"

His aura rose, and he began to secretly extract chakra.

The scarlet gaze made everyone shudder.

Uchiha Yashiro glanced at everyone and his eyes fell on a roof. Then he looked away and shouted, "Stop!"

The young man's breath stagnated, he snorted coldly, turned his head away and gasped.

"Since someone has reported it, let's take him back for investigation first."

Uchiha Eighth Representative looked indifferent and didn't argue at all. He waved his hand and two members of the police department immediately stepped forward and picked up the wealthy man.

"Wait, what are you doing? I'm not blocking the road. Are you trying to force a confession out of me, Uchiha? I want to see the Hokage, I want to see the Hokage!"

The wealthy man's face changed and he immediately started to roar. He kept struggling. The onlookers were all furious when they saw this. They kept insulting, advising, or threatening him, but no one dared to cross the line.

The crowd was getting excited. At this moment, there was a sudden movement on the eaves of a house on one side of the street. A masked ninja was squatting there quietly.

"Hokage-sama already knows about this matter. Since it is just a small misunderstanding, Captain Yashiro please let him go and don't gather here to affect the villagers."

After saying this, he left in an instant, leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.

"As expected of Hokage-sama, you figured it out so quickly."

"It's a good thing that Hokage-sama is here, otherwise someone else would have been wrongly accused by the Uchiha."

"Evil Uchiha, why doesn't Hokage drive them away?"

Faced with everyone's discussions, the young Uchiha were all very angry, but Uchiha Yashiro had a calm expression and his emotions remained stable.

"Since the Hokage has spoken, let him go. Help him set up his stall and close the team."

He has been in the police force for decades and has seen this kind of thing too many times, enough for him to ignore the words that once made him extremely angry.

Soon, the crowd began to disperse. Hui's expression was very ugly. He didn't expect that the situation of the Police Department was still so difficult after so many years.

And what about Sima Yi?
He just smiled and watched it all with interest.
