Chapter 40: Sunagakure Spy!
Chapter 40: Sunagakure Spy!
"You're too serious."
Aoba shook his head and said in a relatively weak tone, "I'm just protecting the village in my own way."
"Aoba, you must rest well during this period of time. You must not be brave, and I don't want to see anything happen to you!"
The expression on Minato's face was extremely serious, and there was a faint hint of order in his tone.
"I understand."
Aoba let out a long sigh of relief. This time, he did not object but accepted Minato's request.
"I am relieved that you can think it through."
A smile immediately bloomed on Minato's face. At the same time, a smile also appeared on Kushina's face.
The Noodle House's environment became relaxed again.
And just like that, Aoba achieved his goal.
He successfully induced Minato to apply for holiday leave.
He believed Minato could accomplish this.
So their mood immediately became comfortable.
"Let's hurry up and eat noodles!"
With Minato's impatient tone, the three of them began to eat noodles.
During the time they ate noodles. The three of them talked about some unimportant topics, and most of it was about Minato's concern for Aoba's life in Anbu.
After all, in his knowledge.
Ninjas who spent most of their time in Anbu would be affected by many negative emotions. These kinds of ninjas could carry a lot of weight for the village were worthy of admiration.
...
After the three of them finished their noodles, they separated. But before they separated, Minato once again emphasized to Aoba that he must rest well and not overwork himself.
After Aoba promised Minato, he left Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House and walked into Anbu's dormitory.

"It's finally done."
Aoba muttered silently in his heart. He had been squatting in Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House for a full seven days. Finally, he had achieved his goal.
Now, he had successfully gone through Minato's back door.
Then, obtaining a vacation was just a matter of time.
As a result, no matter how much Konoha's missing people case had gone during this time. It was none of his business!
Of course., Aoba did not know if he was thinking too much.
Moreover, he did not know if Yuta's plan was as he had imagined.
But following his principle of caution.
Aoba was unwilling to take any risks.
He just wanted to quietly read memories in Konohagakure Intelligence Division bit by bit, obtain's reward, and increase his strength.
...
The next day, early morning.
Aoba got up early, put on the Anbu ninja uniform, the cat face mask, and set off for Konohagakure Intelligence Division.
Although Minato promised to apply for a holiday for him, it was not yet given. Now that the seven days of vacation Captain Eaton gave him was over, he needed to go back to work.
Passing through the dark corridor where there was no sunshine Aoba came to the dark compartment.
He just stood still.
After a while, he saw the guard leader leading a few guards to escort a middle-aged man over.
"You're back."
The guard leader greeted Aoba.
"Yes."
Aoba nodded. He and the guard leader were just acquaintances, and he was wearing a mask; the latter was also wearing a mask. Both of them did not know each other's true faces, and all of their relationships were only in this small black compartment.
"These days, when you are not here, the efficiency has slowed down a lot. I will leave this person to you. According to the witness, he sneaked into Konoha hospital.
There is a suspicion of stealing, but the specific event is not very clear."
The guard leader said in a deep voice.
"Okay."
Aoba replied indifferently. He had always been lukewarm and did not have much contact with the people here.
This could prevent these people from having any connection with him after they had done something wrong.
"Good."
The guard leader had long been accustomed to Aoba's temperament. He waved his hand and gestured for his subordinates to tie the middle-aged man to the wooden stake. Then, he left the small compartment to carry on with the follow-up work.
After waiting for these guards to leave, Aoba closed the door of the small compartment.
Then, he turned around and looked at the middle-aged man tied to the wooden stake.
Through the hole of the mask, a pair of dark eyes without emotion could be seen.
"I didn't do it."
The middle-aged man saw that the masked Konohagakure Intelligence Division Ninja in front of him was quiet, and he was a little panicked. He took the initiative to defend himself.
"You don't need to say anything."
Aoba walked directly to the front of the middle-aged man and raised his hand to touch the latter's head.
Hum!
All of a sudden, Aoba's body trembled slightly.
"Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained, Fūton, Kazekiri no Jutsu(Wind Release: Wind Cutter Technique)!"
A crisp electronic prompt rang out in Aoba's mind, and memories were loaded in his mind.
"Huh?"
Aoba was stunned for a moment, and his pupils slightly fluctuated.
Something was wrong with this person!
The people that Aoba was responsible for interrogating in this small compartment were ordinary people.
The rewards obtained were either chakra increase or spiritual energy increase.
But...
This time, what he obtained was a Ninjutsu.
This meant only one thing.
The middle-aged man tied up in front of him was not an ordinary person but a ninja.
"Interesting!"
Aoba stared at the middle-aged man's face. He was sure that the latter did not have any ninja forehead protector on him. This meant that this person was hiding his identity. At least the guard leader did not realize that this person was a ninja.
Look at his memories!
Aoba immediately began to browse through the memories of this middle-aged man.
Country of Wind, Sunagakure.
A Chunin.
Two years ago, he pretended to be a war refugee and sneaked into Konohagakure.
He concealed his name.
He used to work in restaurants in the village.
The place he usually goes to was...
Konoha Hospital!
Through this person's memory, Aoba understood the latter's task. He wanted to investigate Konohagakure's medical level deeply so that the advisor of Sunagakure Chiyo could make a poison in a targeted manner!
Good fellow!
Aoba was amazed!
He never thought that on the first day of his return to work, he would meet a spy from Sunagakure.
"It's a bit troublesome..."
Aoba frowned slightly. How to deal with this matter was very important to him.
If he let this middle-aged man confess according to the crime of sneaking into Konoha's hospital to steal medicine, he would at most be detained for a short period of time and compensated some financial compensation. Then, this Sunagakure spy would be released.
However, if he did not want him to be released, he had to hand him over to Captain Eaton.
However, a question came.
What should he say?
He couldn't just casually interrogate an ordinary person and ask them to use the mind-reading technique of the Yamanaka clan, right?
How could he ask for leave then?
"Then I can only play a bit more ruthless..."
After pondering for a while, Aoba quickly thought of a solution to the problem through the huge amount of memories he had obtained.
