Chapter 60: The Trap
"Lord Runyu."
Uchiha Reige suddenly appeared and stopped talking.
"Matthew was caught."
"Who caught him?" Runyu put down Zangfeng, and her somewhat relaxed nerves became tense again.
A moment.
Many possibilities came to Runyu's mind, Danzo? Hiruzen Sarutobi?
"Uchiha Security Department." Uchiha Reige gave the answer, but this answer was not within Runyu's expectation.
"What's going on?" If it was a trivial matter, Uchiha Reige didn't need to report it. He could just order him to be released. He still had some respect within the Uchiha clan.
"kill!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Runyu didn't believe that Matt Dai could kill anyone.
"The man who got drunk at Shuweiju last night is dead." Uchiha Reiyue continued.
"Let's go to the security department. I want to see Matt Dai." Runyu instinctively felt that things would not be that simple, so she turned around and picked up Zangfeng to be prepared.
"My lord, I won't let you leave the clan." Uchiha Reitsu advised.
"You can't stop me." Runyu walked around Uchiha Reiyue with eager steps.
It was impossible for Matt Dai to kill someone for no reason, and there was no record of this incident in the original work. He had reason to suspect that this was a plan against him through Matt Dai.
Under the leadership of Uchiha Reige, Runyu entered the security department unimpeded. People kept greeting Runyu on the way. Although he was already anxious, he still returned the greeting patiently.
In the blink of an eye, Runyu was taken to a corner room. Because of Runyu, the Uchiha clan did not torture Matt Dai to extract a confession, but the latter's face was full of panic.
"Lord Runyu, you have to believe me, I didn't kill anyone!" Matt Dai said eagerly when he saw Runyu.
He was exercising today, but he didn't want someone from the security department to come to his door and accuse him of committing murder. What made him unable to explain was that he had actually been alone with the deceased yesterday.
"I believe you didn't kill anyone. Calm down and tell me everything you know." Runyu said calmly. What is needed most at this time is to calm down and analyze the situation.
Runyu handed Mattdai a cup of hot water, and Mattdai took the hot water and drank a few sips before his excitement calmed down.
Next, Matedai told Runyu everything he knew, including what happened to the ANBU. After he calmed down, he had a vague feeling that it was probably the ANBU.
When Matt Dai mentioned ANBU, Runyu suddenly smelled the smell of conspiracy. ANBU was a private army led by Hiruzen Sarutobi. But this morning, Uchiha Shancai specifically reminded himself to be careful of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Have you asked the Inuzuka clan to assist in the investigation?"
The Konoha Security Department is mainly responsible for daily patrols on the streets and the screening of hostile spies. It is also responsible for some murders that occur within Konoha. When necessary, they can seek help from experts in Konoha tracking.
The Inuzuka clan is good at fighting between humans and animals, and the ninja dogs they cultivate are particularly suitable for finding people.
"The Inuzuka Chunin of the Inuzuka clan has confirmed that the smell of the deceased and Matt Dai has been the only ones in the house recently." The person who answered was Uchiha Yoshiharu, the main person in charge of the case.
"What's the conclusion given by the Yamanaka clan?" The Yamanaka clan can view the memory of the deceased, which can be said to be a weapon for solving crimes. If it were placed in a certain world, a primary school student might be directly unemployed.
"The murderer was none other than Matt Dai, who was wearing Shu Weiju's work clothes." Uchiha Yoshiharu replied.
It can be said to be irrefutable evidence. If Matt Dai had not been related to Runyu, he would not be sitting here now, but would be locked up in Konoha Prison.
"Who reported the crime?" Runyu then asked. Now he was very angry that he did not study "Ke Xue" well in his previous life and was so passive now.
"Parents of the deceased."
The evidence chain is perfect and the evidence is irrefutable. It can be said that in a sense, this case has been closed.
"If I want to save Matt Day, is there any way?" He couldn't let Matt Day be imprisoned, he had to find a way to save him.
"It's easy." Uchiha Yoshiharu said.
"The first method is to assassinate the parents of the deceased. Without the perpetrator, we have the final say on how the case is defined."
"The second type is to spend money to bribe the parents of the deceased. According to our understanding, their family background is not good and they have a young son to support. They should be easily bribed."
"The third way is to spend money to find a scapegoat."
Uchiha Yoshiharu talked eloquently and briskly listed three solutions.
Runyu: This is too dark!
Why does it feel so proficient, as if it has been done many times.
"But I don't think Matt Dai is the real culprit. Shouldn't our solution be to find the real culprit?" Runyu asked rhetorically. He didn't like the solution proposed by Uchiha Yoshiharu.
"This..." Uchiha Yoshiharu hesitated to speak. Considering his identity, he finally chose to remain silent.
He is just an insignificant chuunin, and he is not qualified to preach to the clan leader's son, the future star of the Uchiha clan.
"Dai, what do you think?" Runyu turned to Matt Dai, with some expectation inevitably welling up in her heart.
"I didn't kill anyone. I'm not afraid of death. I'm even more afraid of living with a sin that doesn't belong to me. What I want is the truth." Matt Dai spoke out Runyu's heartfelt words, and what he wanted was the same.
the truth.
What really matters in this matter is not how to solve it, but the truth of the matter, and the truth is very important.
He sensed a huge and familiar chakra approaching the room.
Uchiha-san opened the door and glared at Uchiha Reige, then said to Runyu, "Come out with me."
Konoha Security Department, Minister's Office.
Compared to the cabin just now, this place is much more luxurious, with two rows of sofas, expensive wooden desks, and a nice fragrance in the air.
There is a huge Uchiha clan emblem painted on the wall behind the desk, and above the clan emblem are the eight characters.
Enforce justice fairly and protect Konoha.
It is said that these eight characters were the original intention of the Second Hokage to establish the Konoha Security Department. Runyu seems so ridiculous now.
"I just reminded you this morning to be careful of Sarutobi Hiruzen. Don't leave the Uchiha clan during this period. As a result, you came out in the afternoon. You didn't take my words to heart at all." Uchiha-san sighed helplessly.
Uchiha Mountain: dear, dear.
"My father has known about this for a long time, so he advised me to be careful of the Third Hokage."
"Yes, it is precisely because of me, Matt Dai, that I was not tortured to extract a confession." After Runyu came into contact with Matt Dai, Uchiha-san investigated Matt Dai's information.
Eight words to describe it.
Very poor talent, extremely mediocre.
He didn't understand how such a person was worthy of Runyu's investment, but he had no choice. Who told Runyu to think favorably of him? Uchiha-san had no choice but to instruct the Konoha Security Department to treat Matt Dai well.
