Konoha Hypocrite - Chapter 358: Handling Official Business
Morning of the Next Day.
The golden sunlight shone through the yellow gauze curtain to the room.
Uchiha Tunan and Boruto at the dinner table seemed to be covered with a layer of golden mist.
Boruto drank up the porridge in the bowl, leaned back in the chair with a satisfied face, and touched his stomach.
“I’m so full. Even breakfast is so delicious.
Unfortunately, I don’t know where Mr. Sasuke went. He definitely missed out on this.
Uchiha Tunan put down his chopsticks and wiped the corner of his mouth with a tissue.
Then he got up and went to the cabinet. He opened the drawer, took out a thick stack of bills and put them on the table.
“Take this money and spend it. You don’t have to save it from me.
I have to go to work now. ”
Boruto looked at the money on the table, and a shy expression appeared on his face. He reached out to pick up the money and put it in his bag.
Uchiha Tunan smiled and made a seal with his hand, and a shadow clone began to pour milk for Naruto.
Seeing this, Boruto used the topic to eliminate the awkwardness in his heart and said with a puzzled face,
“Does Uncle Tunan usually use shadow clones?”
Uchiha Tunan nodded and said,
” I usually uses shadow clone to take care of Naruto.
I don’t feel at ease letting someone else taking care of him.”
Boruto wanted to go out with Uchiha Tunan to play, so he immediately asked, “When are you going to get off work?”
Uchiha Tunan pondered for a moment and said slowly, “Two days ago was a special situation, so I was free during the day.
Usually, I would be busy from early to late, and even often stay up late to work overtime.”
When Boruto heard this, he immediately thought of Naruto and said with a disappointed face, “Are you as busy as Dad?”
At this time, Uchiha Tunan had already got up and walked to the side of Boruto. He reached out and gently rubbed Boruto’s hair and said gently,
“Do you want to take a look at my working environment and see the secrets of Konoha?”
The eyes of the Boruto suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise: “Can I?”
Uchiha Tunan showed a gentle smile on his face, and reached out his hand to Boruto and said: “If I say there is no problem, then there is no problem.”
Boruto looked at Uchiha Tunan’s hand, hesitated for a moment, and put his hand on it.
The relationship between the two seemed to be much closer because of the physical contact.
….
Half an hour later.
Boruto followed Uchiha Tunan all the way to the wide field of the Anbu base.
They saw that there were many light pillars shining with a dim yellow light.
The square was surrounded by layers of densely packed rooms from top to bottom.
Because Uchiha Tunan brought Boruto in through the main entrance of the mountain, Boruto knew that this was the inside of the mountain.
And those rooms were also built on the stone walls in the belly of the mountain.
Boruto looked up and sighed with a shocked face,
“Oh my god. Is this digging the entire mountain? This is too exaggerated.”
Uchiha Tunan smiled and patted Boruto on the shoulder.
“Usually, I don’t enter from here. Since it is your first time here, I will let you see the complete Anbu.”
After that, he led Boruto up the stairs.
On the way, Boruto looked left and right, and his eyes were full of novelty.
After a long time, Boruto saw that there was no member of Anbu for a long time, and immediately asked with a puzzled face,
“This place is big, but it’s too cold. Why is there no one here?”
Uchiha Tunan, who was walking in front, explained,
“Anbu has a special dormitory, entertainment room, canteen, and a variety of training rooms.
Here, these are the rooms.
They usually stay in their rooms, so they rarely see people.
But don’t barge into these rooms.
Some of the rooms are purely trap rooms, used to guard against spies.”
When Boruto heard this, he had an expression of seeing the world and nodded repeatedly,
“This is Konoha during the war. It looks very strong.”
Unknowingly, the two of them had crossed the highest stone bridge and entered Uchiha Tunan’s office.
Uchiha Tunan’s office was clean and tidy, and there were several rows of bookshelves made of mahogany in the room.
The bookshelves were filled with books and scrolls. At a glance, it was obvious that the owner of this room was very knowledgeable.
The whole room did not have the dark feeling of Anbu, but it was spacious and bright.
“It’s so spacious…
These things look very valuable at first glance. ”
Boruto sighed and reached out to caress the decoration in the room.
Uchiha Tunan brewed a pot of tea and placed the full cup on the table. He said gently,
“Sit down. I usually only have tea here. I don’t have juice.
Just give it a try.”
After saying that, Uchiha Tunan came to his desk and sat down. He reached out and pressed a button on the table.
In the next moment, a bookshelf against the wall in the room moved slightly to the side, revealing a dark passage.
An Anbu wearing a cat mask walked out of the passage with a plate in both hands.
Boruto looked closely and saw that there were scrolls neatly placed on the plate.
The Anbu did not even look at Boruto, and went straight to Uchiha Tunan’s table, respectfully placing the plate on the table.
Then, he took two steps back, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice, “Sir, this is the information that has accumulated over the past three days. Please approve it.”
Uchiha Tunan did not say a word, he took the scroll from the plate and opened it.
He waved his left hand casually, signaling the Anbu to retreat.
The Anbu stood up and bowed deeply to Uchiha Tunan with his hands on his knees. Then he turned and walked into the passage.
The bookshelf returned to its original position and blocked the passage.
For some reason, Boruto seemed to become a lot more reserved.
He sat down on the sofa, holding a cup of tea and watching Uchiha Tunan handle the documents.
However, Uchiha Tunan knew that this was the normal reaction of an ordinary person when they suddenly saw a big shot.
Although Boruto’s father is Naruto who is Hokage.
However, Boruto did not feel the majesty of Naruto, and Naruto’s personality seemed to be very difficult to have this kind of style.
After all, the times were different, and the current ninja world was in a war period, so naturally they had to pay attention to seniority.
While drinking the tea, Boruto curiously looked at Uchiha Tunan who was dealing with business, not wanting to be a bother.
He was afraid that he would make a noise and affect Uchiha Tunan’s work.
Time passed bit by bit.
The tea in Boruto’s teacup had already been drunk, but he didn’t dare to pour water.
Even if the teapot was on the table in front of him.
Looking at Uchiha Tunan who was working seriously, Boruto couldn’t help but think about it.
Uncle Tunan is so cool. Is this leader of the Anbu ? He is much cooler than the Hokage.
Are those scrolls confidential documents of the Anbu?
I really want to take a look. I can brag about it to Jounins when I go back.
At this time, Uchiha Tunan’s gentle voice suddenly sounded.
“It’s fine if you are curious. You are not from this era anyway. Even if you know these ordinary secrets, it doesn’t matter.”
Boruto was slightly stunned, and then a slightly shy smile appeared on his face. He scratched his head, got up, and came to the side of Uchiha Tunan and said, “How nice is that.”
Uchiha Tunan did not even raise his head as he pointed at the chair at the side.
Boruto immediately understood and moved the chair to sit next to Uchiha Tunan, staring at the scroll in front of Uchiha Tunan.
Several of them had information about the other villages.
Although there were no other secrets in the information on the top, it was still interesting to Boruto.
However, when the next piece of information was unfolded, a hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of Boruto.
What was recorded in the information was not words, but some kind of sealing technique.
Could it be that he encountered some big secret?
What would be sealed inside?
Boruto was thinking wildly there, yet this time Uchiha Tunan had already started to form a seal, and started to lift the seal.
He saw Uchiha Tunan reach out to press the scroll, and a white smoke rose.
In the next moment, the white smoke quickly dispersed, and the Boruto beside him suddenly cried out,
“Eye…ball…??”
What was released was a rectangular plate.
There were dozens of blood-stained eyeballs lying quietly on the plate.
Uchiha Tunan took out a document from the drawer with a calm face, ticked a certain task bar, and said leisurely:
“This is the assassination information that was just sent back.
Because this Anbu ninja has taken on several tasks.
Combined, these tasks are estimated to take several years
It was not convenient to send back the body.
Therefore, he simply used the method of cutting ears, digging eyes, chopping fingers, and so on to send them back to confirm through the scroll.”
After confirming it, Uchiha Tunan sealed these eyes into the scroll again.
He closed the scroll and gently put it back to its original position. He turned his head to face the shocked face of the Boruto and said,
“You have to understand that ninjas exist to kill.
These things can not be avoided.”
Boruto took a deep breath and suppressed the nausea. He said in a low voice,
“What did the person who died do?”
Uchiha Tunan rubbed his temples and thought for a while,
“He is a merchant from the Fire Country. During the war, he secretly transported supplies and sold them to the Cloud Ninjas stationed at the border of the Kingdom of Frost.”
Boruto nodded silently. He did not feel that the Anbu had killed the wrong person.
After all, this was the crime of betraying own country by colluding with the enemy.
Suddenly, a puzzled expression appeared on the face of the Boruto. “But, why are there so many eyes here?”
Uchiha Tunan said calmly:
“Cut the weeds and dig up the roots. His whole family was killed, along with the wandering ninjas he hired.”
The eyes of Boruto suddenly widened, and he said with disbelief, “Why do you do this? It is too cruel.
Aren’t you afraid of killing the innocent?”
When Uchiha Tunan heard this, a sad expression appeared on his face. He let out a long sigh and said,
“The entire Ninja Realm is like this. If you don’t treat others like this, others will do the same to you.
What the Anbu needs to do is to make the first move before the disaster comes to their own people.”
When Boruto heard this, he lowered his head and clenched his fists. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Uchiha Tunan ignored him and continued to work.
After a long time, the last scroll was finished.
Boruto raised his head and said carefully,
“Uncle Tunan, are you done with your work?”
Hearing this, Uchiha Tunan chuckled and shook his head. “It was just appetizers.”
After saying that, he saw Uchiha Tunan reach out to press the other three buttons on the table.
In the next moment, the three bookshelves in the room began to move, revealing the passage behind them.
Not long after, they heard footsteps coming from the passage.
Three ninjas in special department uniforms walked out of the passage with thick documents in their hands and placed them on Uchiha Tunan’s desk.
Then, they took a few steps back and knelt on one knee.
“Mr. Tunan, this is the trade list of the logistics department and the list of distribution.”
“Mr. Tunan, this is the research report of the medical department.”
“Mr. Tunan, this is the latest interrogation information. Please take a look.”
Uchiha Tunan glanced at these documents and waved his hand. He said slowly, “There is so much. You have worked hard these past few days.”
The three ninjas stood up and bowed deeply to Uchiha Tunan, then retreated one after another.
At this time, Boruto were already stunned by the scene in front of them. He was stunned and said,
“So much. Uncle, can you finish reading it all in a day?”
The corners of Uchiha Tunan’s mouth curled up slightly, and he said with a relaxed face,
“As long as you calm down and look at it carefully, it actually won’t take a day.
It just so happens that you can help me.
I think that you can help me seal the documents that can be approved and separate them into different categories.”
After saying that, Uchiha Tunan handed the seal to Boruto.
Boruto looked at the seal in front of him and his eyes flashed with excitement. He said solemnly,
“No problem!”
Was this seal of the leader of the Anbu?
It was just a stamp, it was simply a small matter.
However, the next moment, Boruto saw Uchiha Tunan’s speed.
He saw that Uchiha Tunan’s hand speed was very fast. He pulled over a document and quickly swept it over and immediately threw it to Boruto.
Of course, some documents could not be approved if there was a problem. Uchiha Tunan would put the document on the other side.
The speed at which Boruto stamped the seal was not even able to keep up with Uchiha Tunan.
Time slowly passed. Boruto took advantage of the gap between the seal and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He glanced at the focused Uchiha Tunan beside him.
Uncle was so serious when he worked.
Dad seems to be like this too. I wonder if Uncle will go home all day long because of work.
“You can’t be distracted during work time.”
Uchiha Tunan’s gentle voice suddenly sounded.
Boruto came back to his senses and found that there was already a thick stack of documents in front of him. He immediately said apologetically,
“Oh.. I’m sorry.”
At noon, with the cooperation of the two, today’s work was finally completed.
Boruto collapsed on the chair and gasped,
“I’m so tired. The leader of Anbu has so much work. Does he have to be this busy?”
Uchiha Tunan smiled with a relaxed face and pointed to the clock hanging on the wall.
“You see, it’s only noon now, and we have finished today’s work.
Those things look like a lot, but in fact, as long as you calm down and carefully complete them one by one, the difficulty is actually not as great as you think.
It was the same when facing difficulties.
There was nothing difficult in the world, but only people with a strong heart.”
When Boruto heard this, he was stunned and muttered,
“There is nothing difficult in the world… only people with strong intentions. Uncle, your words are so smart.”
Unlike my father, who was still so dumb even after becoming the Hokage.
He was busy with work every day and did not go home all day.”
When Uchiha Tunan heard this, the expression on his face instantly became strange. He said slowly,
“Wouldn’t it be a little rude of you to say my son is bad in front of me like that ?”
