"Um... Liuli, what are you doing? What happened?"
From the corner of Shiraishi's eyes, he saw clearly that the person who appeared silently behind him was Liuli, and he smiled relaxedly.
Speaking of which... Standing silently behind him, Baishi felt that Liuli's strength had become much stronger.
Uchiha's bloodline is truly terrifying, and Ruri who can easily control the power of this bloodline is even more terrifying.
Liuli didn't take the kunai away from Shiraishi's throat, and the voice was close to her ears, suddenly ringing in the dimly lit laboratory:
"You probably didn't hide anything from me before, right?"
"Eh? Why do you say that?"
Baishi was stunned for a moment, and scratched his head in confusion, as if he was very confused by Liuli's words.
"Your behavior today is a bit strange. Usually when you go out to buy things, you just leave directly. There is no need to come to my place to say hello. But when you went out today, you came over to say hello to me. So, I I have been thinking just now, are you hiding something from me?"
The expression on Liuli's face was careless, and her eyes were the same as usual, but it gave people the feeling that nothing could be hidden from those eyes.
"Um... Liuli, when did you learn to joke? This was just a sudden whim."
Yes, it was just a whim. Shiraishi is also hypnotizing himself in his mind.
"It only happens once every few years on a whim. It's quite accidental. So I've been wondering if you're meeting someone behind my back."
"You have misunderstood me. You should be very clear about my interpersonal relationships, right?"
"That's true, but because of this, I feel a little bit wrong. I always feel like you smell like someone else, and you're still a woman."
Liuli also specially sniffed Shiraishi's shoulders a few times.
It’s not like the nose of the Inuzuka clan, your surname is Uchiha! Shiraishi was no longer able to complain.
Just when Shiraishi was about to say something again, Liuli took the kunai away from Shiraishi's neck, and his tone was not as cold as before:
"But forget it, whoever you meet has nothing to do with me, right? I'm no one like you."
When he said this, Liuli had a faint smile on his lips. Because of this, Shiraishi felt even more terrifying.
Generally speaking, Liuli would not joke.
"Well, you really think too much."
"You really haven't met anyone secretly?"
He also said he didn't care, but he obviously cared very much.
His eyes became darker, and murderous intent almost burst out from his eyes.
"Of course, don't you know who I am? I never tell lies."
Shiraishi looked at Liuli with sincere eyes.
"Then how do you plan to explain this photo?"
Liuli took out a photo, which showed Shiraishi and Ayane together, and the location where the photo was taken was in front of the door of Shiraishi's original residence. When the two opened the door and were about to go in together, they were captured.
"..."
Shiraishi found that he had eighteen mouths and could not speak clearly. His brain went into a state of death and stopped functioning.
"Really, you were too careless to be caught by me so easily. If others had done the same, your secret would have been exposed long ago. Then it won't be like this, but a special interrogation by the mountain clan."
Liuli sighed at this time, feeling a little resentful that iron could not become steel.
Huh?
No scolding, no beating, no anger?
This is not right!
"That, that...this is..."
Seeing Shiraishi's confused expression, he probably didn't know what was going on.
"Although you have many merits, you are too naive in many aspects. You also do not realize the importance of immortality, which is more important than you think. Two or three years ago, when you started to study immortality At that time, I had asked my parents to prepare two hundred wild cats of different breeds for me, and transported them to Konoha through various formal channels to serve as my spies."
Because it was an ordinary cat, not a ninja cat, and there were a lot of stray cats and domestic cats in Konoha, even the ANBU didn't notice any problems.
After all, these cats were sent to Konoha in batches over several months through normal channels.
Moreover, these cats are not roaming in the core of Konoha. They are just like ordinary cats and do not do anything deliberately. Even if they transmit information, they do it in public, meowing a few times and using code words. Even more so, no one noticed such a thing.
"..."
Shiraishi petrified directly on the spot.
Seeing Shiraishi's almost petrified expression, Liuli smiled with satisfaction:
"But in the process, I accidentally discovered some of your little secrets, which I didn't expect. Are you still studying the caged bird of the Hyuga clan?"
Liuli didn't know exactly what Shiraishi and Ayane exchanged after meeting, but he could infer some information from it.
"Ah, um... how should I put it, my thoughts are a bit confused right now... In other words, you already knew?"
"It was about a year ago. Although it was a bit careless, you had your own channels and methods for contacting Ayane. If you didn't pay great attention to this aspect, it would be really difficult to notice. Even if you notice it, in the eyes of outsiders, it will not be obvious. It's just a short meeting between friends. In an era when wars break out frequently, the ANBU has limited manpower, so they don't have the time to pay attention to you."
ANBU's manpower available was always between sixty and seventy.
A team performs secret missions abroad or collects important intelligence.
One detachment is to stay in the Country of Fire to prevent the enemy from sabotage work, and can report in time and strive for the arrival of supporting troops.
The remaining two teams have to patrol the entire village. Those they want to monitor are dangerous ninjas with obvious reactionary ideas of Konoha, or spies lurking in from the enemy.
Shiraishi's actual combat performance was mediocre, he was excellent in the Will of Fire exam, and he had no reactionary tendency towards Konoha. The reason and motivation for the surveillance could not be found at all. It can be said that he was a Konoha ninja with a good foundation.
As for having too much contact with Uchiha, the upper management of Konoha will not pay too much attention to Shiraishi.
Although there are not many civilian ninjas who have good relations with Uchiha, there are definitely many. Dozens or hundreds of them can still be found, and many of them are jounin and chuunin.
After all, Uchiha is also a member of the village. Some ninjas have no special prejudice against Uchiha. Instead, they believe that powerful Uchiha is a trustworthy companion on the battlefield and can effectively enhance the team's mobility. Over time, the relationship will naturally become very good.
Just as a precaution, Liuli put two hundred cats into Konoha to act as his spies, eradicating possible accidents as soon as possible and further ensuring Shiraishi's safety.
When it comes to magic, Liuli cannot be as careless as Baishi.
Although in Shiraishi's own opinion, he was hidden and safe enough.
Shiraishi slowly closed his mouth at this time. He originally thought he was hiding well, but now it seems that Liuli is responsible for all this.
Should he be said to be a talented ninja from a big family?
Whether it is the mastery of the main body of the plan or the effective measures implemented in case of accidents, they are all watertight.
He can identify some future situations in the ninja world based on the knowledge he has learned, as well as from a historical and political perspective, but there will obviously be some deviations in the details.
"call……"
Being discovered by Liuli, he didn't know why, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
Baishi smiled bitterly and said, "I really can't hide anything from you. You have been so sensitive to things since you were a child."
"It's because your life has made you comfortable in the past few years, and you haven't made any progress at all. Remember to be more careful next time. Okay, now go out for dinner."
Liuli put the kunai into his ninja bag and took the lead in walking ahead.
"Liu Li, were you caring about me just now?"
Behind him, Shiraishi's laughter came.
Liuli stopped, turned around, looked at Shiraishi with a cold face, as if he were an idiot.
"How can you tell that I care about you?"
"Eh, isn't it?"
"You idiot, I'm just interested in magic. Stop being so sentimental. Power is the only thing. What you do and what you get are just a matter of thought. It's best to wake up and talk about your sleep talk."
After saying that, Liuli turned around and stepped forward, her black hair rising slightly due to the rotation, her figure aloof.
"Really? I'm very interested in dominating others...can I think so?"
As he walked forward, no one answered his question.
Shiraishi scratched his hair helplessly, it was such a messy day.
...It shouldn’t be a big problem.
However, in other words, next time he can bring Ayane here openly for a physical examination?
