The sky gradually darkened, and Uchiha Mina felt like she wasn't in good spirits today.

While receiving guidance from Uchiha Tunan, she kept getting distracted.

"Mina, if you're not feeling well, you should go home and rest early."

Uchiha Tunan patted Uchiha Mina's shoulder, pulling her back to reality from her daze.

"I'm sorry, Tunan-kun, it might be because I didn't sleep well last night," Uchiha Mina said apologetically.

"Then you go back first, I still have something to do." Uchiha Tunan affectionately ruffled Uchiha Mina's hair.

Uchiha Mina nodded and walked home listlessly.

However, when Uchiha Mina arrived home, she found her cat dead in the yard.

There was also a note on the ground, detailing the location of a waterfall.

Her emotions erupting, Uchiha Mina activated her single- tomoe Sharingan, threw the note on the ground, and ran out like a madwoman.

Late at night.

Uchiha Mina moved through the forest and soon arrived not far from the waterfall.

Suddenly, Uchiha Mina stopped, concealing herself in the dense bushes.

She saw Hyuga Senrin emerge naked from the water, walk behind Uchiha Tunan, and embrace him.

"Tunan-kun, I love you."

Hiding in the shadows, Uchiha Mina was burning with rage, gritting her teeth and saying, "That bitch."

"I'm sorry, Senrin, I know you like me.

But I've always seen you as a sister.

I actually have someone in my heart."

Uchiha Tunan's firm voice came from the darkness.

"Who! Who do you like?"

"I've always liked Mina very much. My heart has been completely captured by her, and there's no room for anyone else."

Listening to Uchiha Tunan decisively reject Hyuga Senrin, Uchiha Mina's anger instantly dissipated, and a hint of sweetness rose in her heart.

"What's so good about her? How am I worse than her?

Tunan-kun, don't go. I'll do anything you want."

Hyuga Senrin roared hysterically.

"Senrin, please have some self-respect."

Uchiha Tunan forcefully pulled Hyuga Senrin's hand away and left without looking back.

Leaving Hyuga Senrin alone, slumped on the ground, weeping.

After about ten minutes, Uchiha Mina quietly emerged from the woods and approached Hyuga Senrin from behind.

This bitch not only killed Koyuki but also wanted to use her beauty to seduce Tunan-kun.

Kill her!

Kill her!

A devil's urging voice seemed to echo in Uchiha Mina's mind.

She subconsciously raised the kunai in her hand.

Hyuga Senrin, seemingly overcome with grief, didn't notice the movement behind her at all.

"Swish~"

The kunai sliced across Hyuga Senrin's neck, severing her head.

Only then did Uchiha Mina react, looking at the blood dripping kunai in her hand in horror.

I killed someone!

What should I do...

If anyone finds out, I'll be executed.

Uchiha Mina staggered back a few steps, a deep sense of regret rising in her heart.

Then she turned and ran towards Konoha.

After running only a few steps, Uchiha Mina suddenly stopped, a sinister look flashing across her face.

A voice suddenly echoed in her mind.

The Yamanaka Clan can investigate the memories of the deceased.

Uchiha Mina turned around, her crimson Sharingan fixed on the head that had rolled to the side, and began to form hand seals.

"Fire Style, Great Fireball Technique."

Uchiha Mina, who had never used the Great Fireball Technique before, successfully unleashed the fireball.

The massive fireball struck the head, instantly incinerating Hyuga Senrin's skull.

Having finished, Uchiha Mina no longer wished to stay there for another second and bolted towards Konohagakure.

However, at the entrance just before entering the village, Uchiha Mina bumped into Uchiha Tunan, who was walking alone towards the village.

"Mina, what are you doing here?" Uchiha Tunan asked, looking confused.

Uchiha Mina forced a calm smile and said:

"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk."

Uchiha Tunan nodded, not suspecting anything:

"It's so late, it's not safe for you to be out alone. Let me escort you back."

With that, he directly took Uchiha Mina's hand and walked towards Konohagakure.

The two passed through several silent streets, saying nothing.

Suddenly, Uchiha Tunan spoke, "Mina, actually I... like you. Will you go out with me?"

"Tunan-kun... I..." Uchiha Mina wanted to agree.

But she still had a life on her hands. Her mind was in turmoil, and she really wasn't in the mood for romance.

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Tunan suddenly turned, pulled Uchiha Mina into his arms, and leaned down, forcefully kissing her.

They kissed for a full minute before reluctantly parting.

"Tunan-kun, there's something I need to tell you," Uchiha Mina said, gazing dotingly at Uchiha Tunan.

"Go ahead."

"I just... impulsively killed Hyuga Senrin.

It was really impulsive. Do you think the village will execute me?"

Uchiha Mina became more agitated as she spoke, tears beginning to well up in her eyes.

"Hoo~"

Uchiha Tunan looked shocked and took a long moment to recover.

He then said sternly, "As your boyfriend, I will definitely protect you.

They will definitely investigate. Tomorrow, I will confess to Lord Hokage and beg him for leniency."

"But..."

"Calm down!"

Uchiha Tunan shouted, then took a deep breath and softened his tone:

"Listen to me. You don't need to worry about this.

Mina, I love you."

With that, Uchiha Tunan kissed Uchiha Mina's forehead, then knocked her unconscious with a chop to the neck.

In Uchiha Mina's room.

Uchiha Tunan's forehead was covered in sweat, and a hint of exhaustion flashed in his eyes.

He closed and opened his eyes, retracting his Sharingan.

He reached out and took the note clutched tightly in Uchiha Mina's hand, then left the room.

He went to the cat's corpse in the yard, placed the note beside it, and picked up the original note from the ground.

Everything was ready, and the scapegoat was arranged.

Uchiha Tunan leaped away from the spot, like a ghost in the darkness, heading towards his home.

When he found Uchiha Mina in the forest, Uchiha Tunan had already devised his plan.

First, he had Uchiha Mina eat a mushroom containing neurotoxin.

This mushroom could erase recent memories.

Although Uchiha Tunan also ate it, he had consumed the green mushroom with detoxifying properties from the beginning.

To ensure the neurotoxin would successfully erase Uchiha Mina's memories, Uchiha Tunan had also used genjutsu to continuously destroy her mental energy.

This allowed the neurotoxin to have the greatest effect.

Next, he constructed an illusionary world for her, allowing her experiences within the illusion to overwrite her original memories.

The final step was to swap the evidence.

He figured that for such a minor incident with clear evidence, the Konoha higher-ups wouldn't send overly professional investigators.

If there were any oversights or loopholes, he could only hope that Hiruzen Sarutobi could override dissenting opinions and protect him.

Constructing the illusionary world for Uchiha Mina had consumed too much chakra and mental energy.

Upon returning home, Uchiha Tunan collapsed into bed.

Tomorrow, a good show was about to unfold.
