Chapter 138 Hiruzen Abdicates, Tsunade Delegates Power to the Police Department

When you are about to be interrogated, no matter how angry you are, when you see the interrogator with a blank face and rude movements, your heart will jump and you will feel vaguely uneasy.

Is the situation getting serious?

Yan took advantage of this and made a preemptive move.

As expected, Hong was shocked.

She was so angry that she could only sit down and wait for Yan's interrogation.

"Sorry, the Hokage Office Building has issued a notice that the Hokage has admitted that the village has conducted human experiments. Now the outside world is in chaos, so it's very busy.

Your interrogation will start soon. You have five minutes of personal time. The bathroom is on the right turn when you leave the door."

"......."

I always feel like you are fooling me.

After hesitating for a while, Hong still stood up and said thank you, then ran towards the bathroom.

As for the announcement of the Hokage Office Building, she couldn't care anymore.

After sitting for a whole day, her bladder was about to explode. Who has the energy to pay attention to those things?

Five minutes passed quickly. After solving her personal problems and washing up, Hong returned to the interrogation room.

Yan motioned for her to sit down.

After Hong sat down, he got straight to the point.

"Yuhi Hong, what is your relationship with the prisoner Makino?"

"My father and Makino's parents are friends. After my father passed away, I received a lot of care from his family, so we have a good relationship."

Hong answered truthfully.

Yan recorded it quickly and continued to ask:

"When I brought people to your house, you promised that you would personally arrest Makino and bring him to the police department, but why did you hesitate?

Do you know how serious the consequences will be if you let him go?

You will also be implicated, and you may be locked up in Konoha Prison for a while."

"Now the family of the deceased hopes to severely punish Makino, the murderer who killed a ninja from the same village. Do you know the seriousness of the matter?"

"I didn't want to protect Makino, I just hesitated."

Hong's bones seemed to be pulled out, leaning softly against the chair, saying painfully:

"I just don't want to see his family disappointed. When Makino wanted to escape, I was ready to arrest him, but..."

"But you didn't expect that I was squatting outside? The criminal was caught first?"

"........"

Hong nodded and stopped talking. She didn't want to say anything anymore, nor did she want to defend herself.

"Okay."

Yan wrote the record neatly and closed the text.

"???"

Is it over?

It's very different from what I imagined.

Hong has heard a lot about those who take over the interrogation in the police department, facing endless interrogations of various kinds of digging holes, and they will never stop until they dig out your ancestors.

In serious cases, they will even use illusions to control you and make you confess everything. Not to mention secrets, you will even reveal the color of your underwear.

"Come with me."

"???"

Hong walked out of the police department with a confused face, followed Yan with a confused face, and came to the barbecue restaurant where the meat was cut last night.

It was not until the aroma of barbecue filled the tip of her nose that Hong came back to her senses in a daze.

Shouldn't I be locked up and sent to Konoha Prison?

Why am I sitting in a barbecue restaurant!

"You've been locked up for a whole day, aren't you hungry?"

Yan picked up the chopsticks and picked up the barbecue and blew it.

"So, I'm fine now?"

Being able to leave the police department means that Makino's affairs have nothing to do with her, but Hong is not sure, and looks at Yan cautiously.

While chewing the barbecue, Yan replied with a half-smile:

"It depends on my mood."

Hong: "......."

You are dereliction of duty!!

Hong wanted to accuse Yan of dereliction of duty, but she found that she couldn't say it, because Yan was dereliction of duty and she was the beneficiary.

"......."

Putting her fist on the table, Hong clenched it tightly. After a moment of silence, she loosened her fist and exhaled heavily:

"What about Makino?"

Yan raised his eyebrows: "It depends on my mood."

In fact, it really depends on his mood. If he is in a good mood, everyone is good. It is impossible to run away, and it is impossible to be innocent.

At most, the charge is lighter, and he will not be executed. He will be thrown into Konoha Prison and come out after ten years.

If it is more serious...you will be in prison for life if you don't die.

At this moment, Hong was completely numb.

Recalling her former ideals, Hong felt a little ridiculous.

"Look at it more positively. Think about Shimura Danzo, our Hokage assistant, who has done so many unscrupulous things. Just because he is a good friend and teammate of the Hokage, he will not have to worry about his life, but will be imprisoned in Konoha Prison and live a good life."

"Some things are too serious, and it is you who will suffer."

"Don't look at me, if you want to drink, just get it yourself."

Why do all the women I know like to drink?

Yin said he couldn't understand.

Yuhi Kurenai, who doesn't like sake on weekdays, drank a lot, even more exaggerated than last night. Looking at the bottles on the table, Yan was numb because he also drank some.

The atmosphere was right, and before they knew it, the two of them started to drink one glass each.

In the end, Yan didn't know where to go, he just knew that he was carrying a drunkard home to sleep.

The next day, Konoha, which was in the vortex of public opinion, once again issued a new announcement.

In the announcement, the Third Hokage explained to the villagers that he was too old to do the job, and he had no strength or face to take on the important task of Hokage, so he chose to resign, and the candidate for the Fifth Hokage was Princess Tsunade.

The announcement did not contain much content, but after it was announced, it directly caused an earthquake in Konoha.

Issuing such an announcement means that the Third Hokage has decided to retire and live a comfortable life. The person who will be the head of Konoha in the future will be Princess Tsunade.

From admitting the crime to removing himself invisibly, and then retiring, it can be regarded as an explanation to the village and the Daimyo's Mansion.

No matter how dissatisfied the Daimyo was, he could only accept this result.

Fortunately, the Fifth Hokage was Tsunade, who could be regarded as half of his own people, and the Daimyo was happy to accept Tsunade as Hokage.

Even sent a delegation of envoys to Konoha to congratulate Tsunade, and even brought the funds that had been delayed for a long time, and even doubled them.

Looking at the scroll sent by the Daimyo's Mansion, the Third Hokage almost didn't carry it in one breath.

I begged and pleaded for a little money, for the development funds of the village, but the daimyo refused to give it to me and made all kinds of noise.

Now, I just announced that I would retire. Tsunade became the candidate for Hokage, and the money came, and it was doubled! ! !

Forget it, it's already like this, there's no use regretting.

The Third Hokage can only hope that after Tsunade becomes Hokage, she will not bring up the old accounts again, and will not knock down people like Utatane Koharu.

As for him, he can only go home and retire with peace of mind.

Tsunade is not Minato, and she will not give him the opportunity to retire openly and still make trouble in secret.

The only choice for the Third Hokage is to go home and retire.

The Third Hokage retires, and Tsunade is about to become the Fifth Hokage. The village needs to arrange a lot of things, and the work of the police department will become busy.

And the rope that strangled the Uchiha has been loosened.

Although the rope has not been taken away, at least it will not be strangled by the neck as before.

The best proof is that Uchiha can expand the patrol area and handle more things.

In the past, these things were handled by the Anbu, and the police department had no right to intervene.

Tsunade has begun to delegate power.

Some rights belonging to the Anbu have been transferred to the police department.

Day and night, the dawn has finally come.

At this moment, Fugaku is full of energy.

As the police department's power expands and the number of things it can handle increases, the police department also needs to make many adjustments.
