"Heh heh heh, it's actually another family member of Danzo's Root causing trouble. Has he decided to throw caution to the wind? Or does he think he can do whatever he wants just because I'm not around?"
After reading the dossier Uchiha Mikoto had secretly copied for him, Hyuga Wuye let out a cold chuckle.
They said people learned from their mistakes, but the Pot Shadow simply refused to remember.
He probably really thought Wuye would be staying at the daimyo's residence for a long time. And since this involved Hatake Sakumo, while Wuye had also lost his position in the Konoha Police Force, Danzo figured it didn't matter...

Uchiha Mikoto's little face was full of anticipation.
"Of course it is. Extremely useful!"
Hyuga Wuye reached out and stroked her smooth, tender cheek, smiling lightly. "Thanks, my little spy!"
Uchiha Mikoto's face flushed again. "I'm not a spy..."

Wuye put on an act as he glanced at the dossier in his hand. "Then where did this intelligence come from?"
"I did it to uphold justice."
Uchiha Mikoto turned her head away, refusing to look at him.

Wuye drew out the sound. "Then why didn't you hand these over to the Third Hokage to uphold justice?"
Mikoto was at a loss for words. "B-because I think you're more reliable..."
"No," Wuye looked at her gently. "You just thought I might need them, so you kept an eye on these matters for me. If I'm right, this definitely isn't the only dossier you copied from the Police Force. There are plenty of others too, right?"
Mikoto lowered her head. "Mm..."
"Mikoto... thank you..."
Wuye stepped forward,
