"Shut up, who the hell are you? You attacked our captain for no reason. So many eyes saw it. Do you think I'm slandering you?"
"I didn't attack him, I just pushed him..."
Hiro was in a panic, feeling like he couldn't explain himself even with ten mouths. The people around him were scared and quickly avoided him. Their strange looks seemed to say: You're so brave, daring to attack even members of the police department.
In Konoha, attacking members of the police department was a serious offense, especially doing so openly on the street.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Hiro felt that no one would believe his innocence.
"Get him!!!"
Surrounded and with no chance to argue, Hiro eventually chose to surrender.
He had only casually pushed someone, yet now he was burdened with the accusation of attacking a police department member.
If he dared to resist, it could escalate to resisting arrest, which would worsen his charges.
Although he was innocent, he had to cooperate. He couldn't afford to anger this group of Uchiha elders any further. He believed that innocent as he was, he would soon be released.
It was all just a misunderstanding.
It was true that the Shimura clan had Danzo's support, but having his support didn't mean they could act recklessly in the village. On the contrary, they needed to keep a low profile.
Because Danzo's identity and position were too special, if the Shimura clan's surname became too prominent, Danzo himself might be forced to take action against the clan.
"You just stay quiet."
Locked in the prison cell, Hiro was still confused.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
"Captain, are you okay?"
Kazuki, who had just seemed quite unwell, returned to the rest area looking completely fine, surprising Izumi.
Even though she was naive, by now she understood why their captain had pretended to be injured.
It was a setup!!!
"When did I have a problem?"
After straightening himself up a bit, Kazuki walked into the office and sat down, crossing his legs:
"Please make me a cup of tea, thanks."
"But you just..."
Izumi followed him into the office.
"What did I just do?"
Kazuki asked in confusion.
"...Never mind."
Izumi sighed and obediently went to make tea.
Although she didn't understand why Kazuki did this, as his assistant and secretary, Izumi knew there were things she shouldn't inquire about. Don't meddle in matters that weren't her concern.
The captain must have had his reasons for acting this way.
Soon, people in the police department noticed a strange phenomenon: many people brought in from patrol teams were arrested.
The charges varied, but they shared a common thread: most of those arrested were from the Shimura clan.
There were both ninja and civilians among them.
"Is the Shimura clan crazy? Why are they all causing trouble together?"
"Who knows, maybe their minds are messed up?"
"Hahaha, maybe their minds really are messed up."
Although they were puzzled, it didn't stop them from enjoying the spectacle, reveling in others' misfortune.
After all, who kept provoking the Uchiha?
Who made Danzo a member of the Shimura clan? It serves them right.
Since they enjoyed the benefits Danzo brought, they should also bear the troubles he brought.
In the police department, the Uchiha wouldn't sympathize with the Shimura clan.
Shimura clan territory.
*
Clan leader's residence.
"Clan leader, many of our clan members have inexplicably been targeted by the police department, directly taken to the police department and all locked up. The police department even refuses us visitation."
"The police department?"
The Shimura clan leader, who had a hobby of planting flowers and was trimming excess branches and leaves, put down his shears.
"Yu, are you sure you didn't say it wrong? Why would the police department target our clan members?"
"I don't know."
Shimura Yu was still puzzled.
If it were just one or two people, it could be ignored, but within a day, more than a dozen were arrested. Even senior ninjas who had just returned to the village after completing missions were taken away.
The charges were all over the place.
"Some are suspected of past offenses and are requested to undergo police department investigations. Some clashed with the police department, and more seriously, Hiro and Kuri were even accused of attacking police department members."
"What? Attacking police department members?"
The Shimura clan leader was no longer calm.
Suspicions and investigations could be dealt with, perhaps cooperating for a few days' detention at most. The police department wouldn't dare to hold them indefinitely.
But attacking law enforcement officers was a serious charge.
One misstep, and they could end up in jail.
"Go with me to the police department immediately. I want to see what Uchiha is up to!!!"
The Shimura clan leader was about to change clothes to go to the police department in person.
But before he could step across the threshold, he suddenly stopped.
"Yu, could this be related to yesterday's incident?"
There was a serious brawl on the commercial street, which was no small matter in Konoha.
The news spread throughout Konoha within a day, as such incidents greatly affected the village's reputation.
Everyone was paying attention.
Most people were just enjoying the Uchiha's misfortune.
If the two incidents were unrelated, it was simple. But for the clan leader, the reason was clear. The family's big shots, Danzo, had been targeting the Uchiha.
Given yesterday's events, it was almost certainly his doing.
If these two incidents were connected, it meant the Uchiha were retaliating.
They couldn't directly target Danzo, so they turned their sights on the Shimura clan.
If they couldn't deal with Danzo, did they think the Shimura clan would be at peace?
"I'm afraid there's a big connection."
Similar incidents, similar methods, had occurred several times before.
With their clear conscience and understanding of their family's elder's favorite methods of smearing others, the Shimura clan even participated.
Overall, it wasn't a mistake for Uchiha to target them.
"Wait here. I'm going to see Lord Danzo."
The Shimura clan leader changed his mind and decided to visit Danzo first, rather than causing a scene at the police department. He wanted to see how Danzo would respond.
Maybe, without the clan causing a ruckus at the police department, Uchiha would release everyone and maybe even apologize to them.
Changing into fresh clothes, the Shimura clan leader went straight to see Danzo.
Regarding his visit, the ANBU treated it as if they hadn't seen anything and let him in.
"Lord Danzo."
Although he was the clan leader and had a very close blood relationship, the Shimura clan leader dared not be casual in front of Danzo.
Their meeting wasn't like clan members meeting; it was more like superior and subordinate, even though they were cousins.
"I told you, don't come to see me casually at critical times."
Danzo frowned and reprimanded him.
Scolded to the point where he didn't dare to stand up straight, the Shimura clan leader softened his tone:
"Speak, what did you come to me for?"
