Seeing that all the human traffickers except the one who fainted on the ground had fled, Ebisu wiped his sweat and said,
"We finally scared them all away..."
"Otherwise, even if we had this equipment, it would be difficult to defeat them all."
Obito scratched his head and said,
"But is it okay to let them go like this?"
"And Jerry hasn't been found yet..."
Asuma spread his hands and said,
"This is already the best result."
"Don't forget that they may take children as hostages...that will be troublesome."
As he said that, he looked at Ebisu and praised him,
"By the way, I really have a new appreciation for you this time."
"I didn't expect you to have studied this combat suit so thoroughly."
"You can even think of using the functions inside to play tricks and scare them away."
However, Ebisu, who was praised, did not show any joy. Instead, he looked puzzled and said,
"Wait, I just pretended to be a monster at the beginning. What happened afterwards was not done by me."
"I actually thought one of you guys did it..."
He and Asuma looked at Obito and Kai again, but the two of them also shook their heads in confusion.
"Then...what are those supernatural phenomena just now?"
Obito crossed his arms and said with trembling teeth.
In fact, he has always been unable to stand such supernatural things, especially the resurrection of the dead...
At this time, the sun had already set, and it was pitch black everywhere. A gust of cold wind blew, making the four people's backs cold.
Could it be that what those guys just said was actually true, and it was really the wronged ghost of the child who came to claim his life...
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded from a dark corner not far from them:
"Leave here..."
"You guys leave here quickly..."
"Ah!"
The four people were immediately frightened and screamed, then jumped far away, picked up their weapons and got ready, and then dared to look in the direction of the sound.
Then they saw two pupils emitting faint light appear in the shadows, and they became more and more nervous.
Then they were surprised to find that what came out of the shadows was just a little mouse in a robe...
"Jerry!"
Obito said in surprise.
But he was stopped by Asuma just as he was about to step forward.
"Wait a minute, as far as I know, although Jerry is a ninja beast, he can't speak yet."
The other three people also realized that something was wrong after hearing this, and stared at Jerry again with vigilance.
Jerry spread his hands:
"It's indeed commendable to be vigilant."
"But before that, didn't you recognize whose voice it was?"
Everyone was shocked just now, so how could they recognize it.
Now when they heard this, everyone realized that the voice was indeed very familiar...
"It's Teacher Hideki! Are you nearby?"
Akai was the first to react and looked around.
"I was still there just now."
Hideki's slightly helpless voice sounded again,
"It's just that some of the children in the orphanage have been transported to other places through the underground waterway."
"So my real body has followed."
"As for the situation on my side, it's a bit troublesome to talk about. You can just treat it as a kind of shadow clone."
In fact, what Hideki is using now is the puppet clone technique.
It's just that this time he was not controlling a puppet, but Jerry, who had just been secretly stolen back.
As for the puppet core that sealed the shadow clone, it was made into a backpack for Jerry to carry.
And the robe on its body was also to conceal the existence of the core.
It was definitely not for COS Splinter.
Hideki urged again:
"We will talk about other questions later. Let's leave here first."
"You'd better not show up in front of others in your current appearance..."
So you, teacher, also know that there is something wrong with this dress!
Obito complained in his heart, and then couldn't help asking:
"What about the children here?"
"And there are some children from the orphanage underground."
Hideki said: "Don't worry."
"You made such a big noise, the police officers who are investigating nearby will definitely arrive soon."
"They will make appropriate arrangements."
"We understand."
Asuma looked at everyone and said,
"But before that, we have to do one more thing..."
...
After a while, several police officers discovered the situation here and quickly reported it and requested reinforcements.
Not long after that, Fugaku, who arrived at full speed with his team, looked at the messy house and was a little confused.
Fortunately, one of his subordinates handed him a note found here.
After reading it, Fugaku raised his eyebrows slightly and began to give orders:
"The children in the orphanage are in the basement. Let's send them back to the orphanage."
"The other children should also follow the rescue process last time."
"Especially the children in the woodshed, let the medical ninjas give priority to their treatment."
"And there should be a lot of skeletons in this pond..."
"After we salvage them, find a place to bury them properly..."
...
Not long ago, in the sewer of the town.
"Teacher Hideki..."
"Although we need to find a hidden place to talk, you don't have to bring us to this sewer, right?"
Asuma looked around with disgust.
Even though the sewer was newly built a few years ago and they found a clean place,
the stench that kept coming into their noses still made them choke. It wasn't
until Hideki reminded them to use a respirator that they gradually recovered.
To be honest, Hideki came here just to match their outfit...
so he couldn't explain it, so he just changed the subject and updated them on the current situation.
Everyone then realized that the teacher had known the children's location for a long time, but had kept silent in order to find out the mastermind behind it.
"I thought we had done a great deed..."
Asuma said a little frustrated,
"Now this has disrupted your plan, teacher."
Hideki controlled Jerry and spread his hands and said:
"That's true, but a blessing in disguise?"
"After all, planning how to defend against the enemy in advance cannot ensure victory."
"Being able to adapt to circumstances is the real way to win."
"In fact, I was also worrying about how to lure out the enemy leader."
"And what can make people's hearts waver and reveal flaws are nothing more than desire and fear."
"Just like I wanted to use Jerry to arouse the other party's greed before."
"And you accidentally achieved another way..."
"Fear... Teacher, are you saying that those supernatural phenomena just now were caused by you?"
Ebisu said suddenly.
Hideki said: "Yes, I played the crying sound with a mini recorder, and I also controlled the corpse with the human body saigong."
"As for the sudden twitching of the opponent's body, it was because I activated the hidden electric shock mode of your weapon..."
"Of course, it was thanks to your performance at the beginning that they believed it so easily."
"To be honest, I designed the appearance of your suit to intimidate the enemy."
"I didn't expect to get unexpected gains."
Obito said puzzled:
"Teacher, we just scared them away. Is it really as powerful as you said?"
Hideki smiled:
"I saw that you were still scared just now, why don't you take it seriously now ?"
"You must know that the unknown is the most terrifying."
"Even if the police department destroys more human traffickers' dens, it can only make them quiet for a while at most. "
"Because they know that the police department will not always pay attention to them, and there will always be people willing to take risks for huge profits."
"But once the legend of the revenge of the vengeful spirit is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is equivalent to hanging a sword of Damocles over their heads."
"Because the revenge of the vengeful spirits is irrational and irrational..."
"Even if they don't suffer retribution, they will be suspicious all day long."
"When there is any disturbance, they will subconsciously attribute it to the vengeful spirits."
"If people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to lead the team."
"As long as they realize that being a human trafficker is not worth the loss, then this loose organization will collapse and cease to exist."
"By then, even if the leader alone doesn't show up, it won't matter."
"And this is exactly why I asked you to come here."
"Are you guys willing to leave your home temporarily for a while, and transform into vengeful spirits walking around Konoha, symbolizing the resentment of kidnapped children?"
