Hiruzen Sarutobi Takes the Blame

At 8:30 in the morning, Qingcheng was awakened in the minister's office by the sounds of people coming and going. He stretched, got up, and looked at the beautiful woman beside him.

Qingcheng thought to himself, "This Uzuki Yugao's lips Shinku. At first, I thought it was lipstick, but I didn't expect it to be natural. Is this what they call fiery red lips?"

Seeing that Qingcheng had gotten up, Uzuki Yugao said awkwardly, "Qingcheng-kun, I'd like to ask for the day off. My stomach is really upset."

Looking at the exhausted Yugao, Qingcheng smiled and said, "If you want to rest in the future, you don't need to ask for leave. I'll approve your annual leave. You don't need to work this year. You can take a paid vacation!"

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Uzuki Yugao looked surprised and said, "Is this really okay? Should we deduct some of my salary? Otherwise, I won't feel at ease when I'm on leave."

Qingcheng looked at Yugao, who was blushing, and said with a smile, "Why deduct money? All that deducted wages just end up in my pocket anyway. It's too much trouble to go in and out all at once. I might as well just give it to you in one go."

Upon hearing this, Yugao's face was filled with astonishment. She thought to herself, "Qingcheng is a straightforward person; he doesn't beat around the bush when he does things."

Yugao covered her stomach with her right hand, slowly put on her clothes, and said with a weak expression, "Qingcheng-kun, I'm going home now. If you suddenly miss me, come to my house to find me."

Upon hearing this, Qingcheng said with a serious expression, "You don't need that house anymore. It's only a little over forty square meters, almost like a doghouse. Move to the Uchiha Clan! Kurenai has always wanted you to come and keep her company."

Yugao nodded, looking embarrassed, and said, "I know, but wouldn't it be abrupt for me to go over like this?"

Seeing that Yugao was still a little reserved, Qingcheng smiled and said, "How about we find you a sedan chair carried by eight men?"

Upon hearing Qingcheng's words, Yugao thought to herself, "Qingcheng-kun is so romantic. Senior Yongcheng's demands are too harsh. If a woman has to give birth frequently, her body will be deformed."

Then Yugao said earnestly, "Qingcheng-kun, I hope you can find a few more girls, so that the pressure on me and Senior Hong won't be so great."

Does Yugao like Qingcheng? Of course she still likes him a lot, but she's a little afraid of his twisted demands. Back then, Qingcheng impersonated Yongcheng to deceive Kurenai Yuhi, hoping to rack up more system rewards and avoid upsetting her by making her own harem. Now she's putting a lot of pressure on them, which has backfired.

Qingcheng thought to himself, "I still need to find them more playmates. It would be so much fun if they could hold hands and play together."

Uzuki Yugao waved her hand and said with a smile, "Qingcheng-kun, I'll head back now," and then left the department head's office, heading towards the Uchiha Clan.

Looking at Yugao's unsteady steps, Qingcheng thought to himself, "It seems like we've gone too far. This talent for Strong Kidney and Body Strengthening and improving the body means that even if we fight for three days and three nights, we won't run out of mana. But Yugao and the others don't have a system or Sage Body. They can't withstand it. They can't withstand it at all."

Meanwhile, all members of the Konoha Police Force received a notification to attend a meeting at 9:00 AM, and the members of the Police Force gradually arrived at the Police Force.

Shouhon Yihan had put on a new pair of gold-rimmed glasses this morning, which, combined with her round face, actually gave her a touch of elegance.

Because Shouhon Yihan performed exceptionally well last night, Qingcheng plans to reward outstanding cadres so that all members of the Police Force know that good performance in the Police Force is rewarded."

The second point is to encourage members of the Police Force to engage in shady activities, collect fines, skim profits, and profit from the tribute taxes paid by Konoha shops, thus turning the Police Force into the tyrants of Konoha.

This made the Konoha nostalgic for the old Uchiha Clan Police Force. After all, back then, they dared to spit on and curse at the Uchiha Clan clansmen while enforcing the law, and the Uchiha Clan clansmen didn't dare to fight back because they had the Third Hokage and Danzo protecting them.

However, this time Hiruzen Sarutobi the blame because he signed off on the Beautiful Konoha Village Plan, and ultimately, the Third Hokage has to pay the price for offending people.

Once all the members of the Police Force had arrived, Shouhon Yihan, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, immediately stood up and counted the number of people.

After Shouhon Yihan finished taking inventory, she was surprised to find that there was one more person in the Police Force. She then said sternly, "Who is so bold as to sneak into our Konoha Police Force? Do you also want to skim some money?"

Shouhon Yihan said in a deep voice, "Our Police Force is just starting out, and you're already thinking about getting a share of the profits. Isn't that overstepping your bounds?"

Upon hearing Shouhon Yihan's words, Yamanaka Fu and Aburame Torune immediately turned around to look, noticing a girl walking a dog in the fourth row.

Upon seeing this, Yamanaka Fu said with a serious expression, "You don't seem to be a member of our Police Force. Are you trying to steal our Police Force's intelligence? Pay the fine first."

The girl, looking equally surprised, explained innocently, "My name is Inuzuka Hana, and I'm a member of the Police Force. Before, the Police Force was headed by Shirauo. Captain Shirauo and I took a day off to train Hanamaru in the forest, but I never expected that when I came to work at the Police Force today, it would be headed by Minister Qingcheng."

After she finished speaking, the large wolfhound beside Inuzuka Hana barked twice in perfect unison, "Woof woof," indicating that Inuzuka Hana was a member of the Police Force.

Seeing this, Shouhon Yihan sternly rebuked, "That good-for-nothing Sarutobi Shirauo got stabbed by Minister Qingcheng! You didn't come to the meeting yesterday, nor did you participate in our raid. That shows you disrespect our Minister! Guards, take him out and execute him!"

The tone suddenly changed, and Shouhon Yihan said in a deep voice, "I'll fine you one million Ryo as a warning. Go and pay the fine first, and then we'll talk about the next step."

Upon hearing Shouhon Yihan's words, Inuzuka Hana was immediately surprised and shocked, saying, "I have no problem paying the fine, but you still want to kill me. Why should I pay the fine? I'm going to die anyway."

Looking at Inuzuka Hana who refused to pay the fine, Shouhon Yihan shouted directly, "Our Konoha Police Force is a place that specializes in issuing fines. If you're handsome, we can fine you; if you're ugly and insult the village's appearance, we can fine you too. This is the power that the Third Hokage gave us."

Shouhon Yihan said with a fierce expression, "Inuzuka Hana, are you going to pay the fine or not? Stealing secrets from our Konoha Police Force, what is your crime? However, our department head is magnanimous; if you pay the fine, you will be spared."

Yamanaka Fu echoed sternly, "Inuzuka Hana Kanen is a first-time offender. We're all from the same village. Pay the fine, and the department head will give you a chance."

Several members of the Inuzuka Clan directly advised, "Hana, go pay the fine first! We're cousins in the clan, and colleagues here. Minister Qingcheng Konoha. Take my advice, if you can solve the problem with money, you should definitely spend it."

Inuzuka Hana looked on incredulously and said directly, "The Third Hokage would actually agree to something like this?"
