Chapter 27 The Third Hokage Specifically Asked for Uchiha Hiko!
"Fugaku, I heard that the child Uchihahiko's health has improved and he has returned to his post at the police department."
Although he was puzzled, Fugaku still followed the words he had thought of in advance and answered:
"Yes, Hokage-sama, Hiko's body has recovered very well. Although blood stain disease is very scary, over countless years, the family has also had some experience in treating blood stain disease. In addition, Hiko's discomfort was discovered in advance, and after treatment, it has improved. a lot of."
"That's it."
The Third Hokage nodded as if he believed it was true, but as to how much he believed it, I'm afraid only he himself knew.
According to ANBU's surveillance and investigation, Hiko didn't even go out of his house during his rest period, let alone go to Konoha Hospital for treatment. As for Uchiha's internal treatment...
Not even three generations or a single punctuation mark would believe this.
If Uchiha really had a cure for the blood stain disease, there would be no more clan members dying from the blood stain disease.
"Fugaku."
Sitting up straight and placing his hands on the desk, the Third Hokage finally stated his purpose:
"There are some problems in Daming Mansion this year, which has caused the funds allocated to the village to be delayed. I need to go to Daming Mansion in person, so I hope the police department can send a team to follow me to Daming Mansion. Who do you think should be sent? Is it more appropriate to go?”
"Going to Daming Mansion?"
This was something Fugaku never expected.
Because of this kind of task, it was not Uchiha's turn to come at all. The Anbu were almost all taken care of, and the higher-ups would not trust Uchiha either.
It was simply a fantasy for the Uchiha people to dispatch a team from the police department to protect the Hokage.
What was impossible, the Third Hokage made it possible for him.
What exactly does Hokage-sama want to express?
Suspicious in his heart, Fugaku answered truthfully:
"Lord Hokage, within the family, in addition to me and a few elders, there are also some clan members who work in the police department. I think Shisui is a more suitable candidate, but he has been transferred from the police department."
"Where's Uchihahiko?"
The Third Hokage looked at Fugaku and calmly said Hiko's name.
Fugaku's heart skipped a beat.
Good guy, feelings are waiting here!
Is it to target Yan, or to verify that Yan has blood stain disease?
Fugaku's mind quickly changed, and Fugaku said in embarrassment:
"Hokage-sama, Hiko's personal strength ranks among the best in the family, but his body has just recovered. I'm afraid he won't be able to bear this important responsibility."
Fugaku didn't want Hiko to come into contact with the Third Hokage at all.
It's a pity that the Third Hokage didn't.
I saw him showing a kind and approachable smile, and smiled:
"Fugaku, I believe him. After all, this kid is Hiko, but recently the limelight has overshadowed the two geniuses Shisui and Itachi. I think it won't be difficult, right?"
I’m so embarrassed, you’ve called me by name, and you’re talking about it, how can I refuse?
Do I have the right to refuse?
Without giving Fugaku a chance to refuse further, the Third Hokage said with finality:
"If there is no problem, then inform him to get ready and gather outside the village entrance at two o'clock in the afternoon."
The Hokage's outing was not a big deal, but it couldn't cause a fuss either.
"yes."
Now that things have come to this, Fugaku can only admit it.
After leaving the Hokage's office building depressed, he came to the police department with many worries and came to Yan's office in person to tell him about the incident.
"I?"
"Protect the Hokage to the Daming Mansion?"
Yan's reaction was just as Fugaku had guessed, he was surprised and looked incredulous.
Isn’t this the job of ANBU?
What does this old guy, the Third Hokage, want to do?
"yes."
Fugaku felt bad, but he had no choice but to comfort Yan:
"Maybe it's just a normal protection mission. Just prepare yourself. Bring two people with you. You choose the team members yourself. The team you lead is only responsible for the bright side. The one who really protects Hokage-sama must be the ANBU. Moreover, Hokage-sama's strength cannot be underestimated. "
Speechless!
Very speechless! !
I'm so speechless! ! !
Apart from being speechless, Yan really couldn't find any adjectives to describe his mood at this time.
"Gather outside the village entrance at two o'clock in the afternoon. The Hokage will be waiting for you there. Don't miss the time."
After carefully reminding Yan repeatedly to be careful and on guard, Fugaku left with a lot of thoughts.
Unlike the depressed Yan, Izumi was as happy as a jumping bird and very excited after learning that the team had to take on the important task of protecting the Third Hokage when he went to the Daming Mansion.
Sure enough, people who have never been beaten by reality have simple thoughts.
After thinking about it, Yan decided to take Quan Hefeng with him. As for Chi Yan and the others, it would be better to stay in the police department.
Although Uchiha Feng couldn't make a fart for a long time, at least he was stable, Izumi... just used her as a personal secretary, and Yan really couldn't expect her to do anything big.
After putting on his clothes and organizing his equipment, Yan set off with his men.
As for the forehead protector...people who work in the police department need to wear that thing?
Although he didn't understand the Third Hokage's insistence on mobilizing a police team for protection, Kakashi still dutifully led the team and distributed them around to protect the Third Hokage secretly.
Outside the village, on the path to Daming Mansion, the Third Hokage stood on the roadside, holding a pipe in his mouth and enjoying the pleasure of puffing away smoke.
A complete chain smoker.
After complaining in his heart, Yan led his people forward:
"Hokage-sama, we can set off."
"Yes."
The Third Hokage smiled kindly and nodded, and he did not forget to care about Yan's health while walking:
"I heard that your health has improved a lot, and the condition has been controlled?"
"Yes, because the family has a lot of experience in treating blood disease, so it is under control."
Yan tried to show his cold personality, reduce the conversation with the Third Hokage, concentrate on observing everything around him, and act very diligently.
Unfortunately, the Third Hokage kept talking in his ear.
"Seeing you, I seem to see my past self. At that time, I was like you, full of youthful vigor."
Yan: "........"
I beg you to shut up, can you say less?
Facts have proved that when you don't want to pay attention to someone, the other person keeps nagging in your ear, this feeling is really painful.
At this moment, Yan has been enduring, and the one who feels the same as him is Uchiha Feng.
This guy is usually a silent person, and he would never speak if he could take action.
He happened to meet the Third Hokage who kept nagging.
This time he has to endure it.
