Qianyu: "My heart and my deeds are clear as a mirror. Everything I do is justice!"

Because He Was Kind!

Late at night, Konoha.

It should have been a night with a full moon, but the sky was completely shrouded by heavy, gloomy clouds. The entire village had sunk into pitch-black darkness.

Even the towering Hokage Rock Mountain was reduced to thick, ink-black outlines in the dark night. The statues of the four previous Lord Hokage stood in silent vigil over the village.

Suddenly, a shrill scream shattered the stillness of the night.

"You... you worthless gambling addict!"

"You actually took our son's life-saving money to gamble, and lost every last bit of it!"

"Now our son has already... already..."

What followed was a hysterical, heart-wrenching wail.

"Even now, you bastard, you still want to go gambling tonight?!"

"You... are you even human?!"

"Let go of me! You crazy bitch!"

A loud slap rang out, followed immediately by a flurry of punches and kicks, one after another, accompanied by the woman's miserable cries.

The man's furious cursing was mixed in as well.

"You crazy bitch! Our son is already dead, so what the hell is the point of saying any of this now?!"

"If he really has a spirit in heaven, then he should bless his old man to win every bet from now on!"

"This is the last bit of money we have left for me to win back what I lost!"

"I'm going to win back everything I lost!"

"As long as I have money, I can eat and drink my fill in Tanzaku Castle and enjoy endless wealth and glory! When that happens, who the hell will care whether you crazy bitch live or die!"

Those words became the final straw that broke the woman.

She completely lost her mind and viciously bit down on the man's leg.

"Ah!"

The man's scream tore through the night. Then he fiercely kicked the woman in the head. She gave a muffled groan, went limp, and fainted on the ground.

Yet the man merely glanced at her before cursing under his breath and striding away.

Under cover of the night, he weighed the last little bit of money in his wallet. Thinking about how he could have another good gamble in Tanzaku Castle, he could not help but itch with anticipation. Even his bones seemed to itch...

"Damn it, once I win my money back this time, I'll find the best hot spring hotel in Tanzaku Castle and enjoy myself to the fullest. Then I'll call over a few young, pretty girls and have some fun..."

As the husband and wife's fierce argument continued, lights came on in many neighboring homes.

However, seeing the man's crazed appearance, no one dared step forward to stop him.

Watching the man's gambling addiction flare up to the point where he did not care whether his wife and child lived or died, everyone was filled with righteous indignation. But they all knew that once this man went mad, he was worse than a rabid dog. No one dared provoke him.

They could only gather together and discuss it among themselves. Some sighed and shook their heads, while others glared angrily, but in the end, no one dared step forward.

Only after the man strode away did a few neighbors hurry over to check on the unconscious woman.

"Haruko... wake up..."

"Are... are you all right?"

The woman named Haruko slowly opened her eyes at her neighbors' calls.

However, judging by her expression, she seemed to have lost all strength.

"My son is dead. I don't want to live anymore either..."

"But that gambling addict, he... he truly has no regard at all for our marriage..."

The neighbors beside her all sighed.

"That kind of man would be better off dead! He even gambled away his son's life-saving money. He's worse than a beast!"

"Yeah, sooner or later, heaven will take someone like him!"

"Really? But in this world, good people often die young while bad people live for a thousand years..."

Everyone fell silent.

Haruko shook her head. "E-even so, he is still my husband. Our son is already dead, and he is the only one I can rely on..."

Everyone was dumbfounded. "He... he's already like this, and you still..."

Haruko shakily rose to her feet and staggered after the man in the direction he had gone.

"I... I'm going to find him and persuade him to come back..."

The neighbors all followed after her.

"Hey, Haruko, that kind of man is beyond saving. He can't possibly turn back..."

At that moment, the man was happily weighing his money pouch as he raced toward the village entrance.

He was imagining himself making a killing at the gambling house before indulging in all sorts of decadent pleasures in Tanzaku Castle.

Suddenly, a figure seemed to appear in the darkness ahead, blocking his path.

"What the hell is that?"

"A good dog doesn't block the road. Move aside for me!"

But the shadow did not move.

Though the night was black as ink, he could clearly see that the figure's eyes were emitting a deep, chilling gleam.

The man felt his scalp tingle. The alcohol in his stomach seemed to evaporate instantly, and cold sweat broke out across his forehead.

"You... are you human or a ghost?!"

"Hmph, even if you're a ghost, I'm not afraid!"

"Don't get in the way of me going gambling, or you'll regret it!"

After this delay, Haruko and the neighbors following behind her had caught up as well.

"W-who is that?"

One of the neighbors raised the lantern in his hand, dispelling some of the darkness and illuminating the small area around them.

"Th-that uniform is..."

"Konoha's Police Force?!"

"It's... it's a Uchiha clan member!"

Someone could not help crying out, their voice trembling slightly.

If it had been an ordinary Police Force officer, encountering one at a time like this would have been like finding a savior.

However, Konoha's Police Force consisted entirely of Uchiha clan members...

In the eyes of ordinary villagers, those Uchiha clan members were like demons with blood-red eyes. They inspired respect, but even more fear.

"The Police Force?"

The man was startled as well, but he relaxed instead.

Since they were not ghosts, what was there to fear?

"Even the Police Force can't control me!"

"So what if you're Uchiha clan members?"

"You think you can stop me from gambling?!"

The figure ahead remained expressionless and still.

At that moment, two more figures wearing Police Force uniforms darted over from the left and right, taking up positions beside the shadow.

"Captain, there really is no need to concern ourselves with such trivial matters..."

"Our Police Force is supposed to maintain the village's public order. This man may deserve to die, but it isn't our place to meddle in his private affairs..."

"Yeah, Captain. The Uchiha clan already has deep conflicts with the village. We should avoid creating more trouble, or it will be difficult for the clan head as well..."

The man vaguely heard what the two said, and his courage grew even further.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"Mind your own business!"

"So what if you're Uchiha? So what if you're the Police Force?"

"Even if Lord Hokage himself came, he couldn't interfere with my family's affairs!"

After saying that, he weighed the money pouch in his hand again, sneered, and arrogantly strode past the three Police Force officers.
