"Again?" Uchiha Madara found that rather interesting. "So someone had been killed before."
"This..." The guard looked somewhat troubled.
"It's all right." Uchiha Madara smiled at the guard's hesitant appearance. "This matter has nothing to do with us anyway, so if it's inconvenient, we won't press you for details."
"It's not that." The guard hurriedly said, "This matter caused widespread panic, so our City Lord has forbidden anyone from mentioning it within the city."

"Is that really all right?" Uchiha Madara asked the guard. "If it puts you in a difficult position, then there's no need to say it."

"The same thing happened again?" Uchiha Madara thought for a moment. "Then it seems this murderer was quite brazen."
"And what was even stranger was that this victim was also a guard," the guard said.
"So this happened twice in your country, and including today, this makes the third time," Uchiha Madara
