After learning the news that Hisana had been assassinated, Yayoi rushed back to Inner Court to check on Hisana's situation.

In the courtyard, not only Hisana and Hazy, but also Kicho heard the news and rushed over to see if Hisana was injured.

However, after seeing Hisana sitting in the corridor, eating thumb cookies with a calm expression, the corners of Yayoi's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

This guy had a really good mentality. He had just been assassinated, and after he came back, he continued to eat as if nothing had happened.

Uh... It seems that nothing happened. The spotless clothes on Hisana proved that she was not substantially injured in the assassination incident just now. She was at most a little shocked.

"My lord husband, why are you here?"

Seeing Yayoi coming over, Hisana's eating movements slowed down obviously.

"Such a big thing happened, of course I have to come over and take a look. How are you, are you okay?"

Although Yayoi knew that Hisana was fine, he still asked a lot.

"It's okay, I'm not injured... but I accidentally beat someone to death with my fist. Will anything happen?"

Hisana put down the snack bag, shrank his neck, and sounded a little nervous.

It can be seen that her heart is far from as calm as she appears on her face. Maybe she ate just now to relieve the psychological pressure caused by killing.

Before this, she had never even killed a chicken, but now she suddenly killed a person, and the sudden panic after the incident has always been with her.

"What do you think?"

Yayoi asked in return.

Hisana suddenly turned pale with fright, thinking that he had gotten into some big trouble.

"I, I didn't mean it. I just punched him a little harder. Who knew he would die like that... I shouldn't be killed, right? In that case, can I eat enough before I go on the road?"

Hisana opened his mouth to explain incoherently. At the end of the sentence, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he even had the naive idea of risking his own life.

After all, she had heard that the person she accidentally beat to death seemed to be the envoy of Kusagakure, and he was also a Jonin, and his status in Kusagakure was definitely not low.

Before Yayoi said anything, Kicho chuckled lightly, touched Hisana's hanging little head, and comforted her:

"Well, my husband does not mean to blame you. Although that is Kusagakure's messenger, according to the rules, the other party should have left Land of Night half a month ago, but now the other party deliberately hides in Land of Night and does not leave, and also attempts to assassinate you... It is our side that needs to ask Kusagakure for an explanation."

Having said this, a biting coldness flashed in Kicho's eyes.

Yayoi nodded.

"Just like what Kicho said, you are the victim in this whole incident. Even if you want an explanation, I will ask for it from Kusagakure."

In this incident, the only uncertainty about Yayoi is what happened on Kusagakure's side to suddenly take the opportunity to attack Hisana.

Judging from the fact that the Grass Ninja messenger hid in the dessert shop that Hisana frequented and took over the identity of the original shop owner to get close to Hisana, this was by no means a temporary assassination.

Although the plan is not very sophisticated and there is only one assassin, being able to figure this out means that the other party has been targeting Hisana for some time.

At least the other party knows that Hisana will leave General's Residence once a month to go to that dessert shop to buy things.

Therefore, this Grass Ninja messenger must have accomplices.

Because if you want to know this, you need a lot of time to visit the locations. It will take at least several months of careful observation and comparison before you can accurately get the whereabouts of Hisana.

And this Grass Ninja envoy only arrived at Nightview City to discuss trade cooperation more than a month ago. Before him, his accomplices had already gathered information for him, and they were waiting to kill him with one blow.

Hearing Yayoi say the same thing, Hisana knew that he was just thinking too much. In order to stay calm, he quickly stuffed a few cookies into his mouth to calm down his shock.

Yayoi and Kicho were both speechless. This guy really didn't have any consciousness at all.

How did she come up with the idea that one life is worth one life just now?

What's more, the fault is not hers. She really doesn't know what her identity represents, and she still measures things based on her simple moral values.

Hisana is too well protected by the Uzumaki Clan. Apart from studying Ninjutsu, his biggest interest is eating, drinking and having fun. Politically, he is a complete idiot.

If it were Kicho who had been crawling among the dead since he was a child, going to Kusagakure without leading anyone to kill them all would be an act of mercy, but he still wanted to take his own life?

It's not just the older generation who can be regarded as the relics of the Warring States Period. People like Yayoi and Kicho are also genuine remnants of the Warring States Period.

When they encounter this kind of assassination involving their own safety, the first thought that comes to their minds is to take the family tree and kill the whole family of the other party!

Of course, ideas are just ideas, and actual operations will also be affected by practical factors, but a tough attitude must be expressed.

"My lord husband, what are you going to do next? According to my idea, we don't need to worry about private matters for the time being, but cooperation at the national level should be completely stopped with Land of Grass for the time being."

What Kicho said perfectly fits Yayoi's inner thoughts.

On the one hand, it can put pressure on Land of Grass and Kusagakure; on the other hand, it leaves some gaps among the people. From a national level, there is a certain detour so that there is no room for negotiation.

Both she and Yayoi roughly guessed that some unknown incident might have occurred inside Kusagakure.

The attitude needs to be shown, compensation needs to be obtained, but the real murderer must also be found, and the person who is behind the scenes must not be led by the nose at will.

"I think so too. Kicho, lead the team to Kusagakure to check the situation on my behalf. I want to know what happened inside Kusagakure."

Only by knowing what happened to Kusagakure can he make the next judgment and solve the matter perfectly.

Although he is a little angry, he will not let his anger go to his head. It can be said that things like compensation are irrelevant. He only needs Kusagakure to show an attitude of apology. What he really cares about is the real mastermind behind it.

He will completely crush the dangerous elements who are targeting Land of Night.

"What about attitude?"

Kicho accepted this assignment calmly.

"You can be a little looser or a little tougher. The main thing is to let Kusagakure issue an apology statement, cut ties with the murderer, and provide corresponding compensation."

The main reason is that Hisana's side is unscathed, and both parties have a lot of room for maneuver in negotiations.

Therefore, Yayoi is unwilling to open fire with Kusagakure if there is no military conflict.

On the one hand, the peace agreement signed by Five Kage will not allow conflicts of this level to occur. When the big powers intervene in mediation, even if he wins, he will not be able to get half of Land of Grass's land.

This kind of conflict will result in the loss of troops and generals, and there will be no profitable war. It is typically fought in vain.

On the other hand, Yayoi knows very well that the biggest problem in war since ancient times has never been how to start, but how to end.

Nowadays, the mainstream trend in various countries is that people's minds are determined. In the past few years of peace, war-weariness is extremely high, and no one wants a war to break out. Land of Night is no exception.

Kicho nodded, knowing Yayoi's accurate attitude. As for how to negotiate with Kusagakure, she had already thought about it.

Then the two comforted Hisana for a while, and then left one after another.

The assassination incident is just the beginning, and the follow-up needs to be dealt with as soon as possible and cannot be delayed.

"Is it really okay?"

Seeing Yayoi and Kicho in a hurry, Hisana couldn't help but feel worried.

"I think it should be fine. After all, Mr. Hisana, you are the victim."

Hao comforted her.

"I hope so. If I had known earlier, I would have used less strength. Who knew he wouldn't have been beaten at all? I just used a little more force..."

After muttering to this point, Hisana was also very depressed.

She had no intention of killing anyone. After punching subconsciously, the most she thought about was to injure the opponent, preferably to the point of being unable to move.

After hearing Hisana's complaint, I didn't know how to reply to her.

To open the chest and make the ribs and internal organs squeeze together like meat, it's not as simple as just using a little force.

However, considering that Hisana has never participated in any actual combat, it is understandable that he lacks judgment on his own strength.

And in her opinion, Hisana killing the opponent directly is completely the right way to avoid risks.

When she gets used to killing people like eating biscuits in the future, she won't have such strange thoughts.

"Thank you this time, Hazy. But how did you find out that there was something wrong with the other party?"

Hisana turned to look at Hao, curious as to how Hao discovered that there was something wrong with the 'female store manager' and was able to suddenly use a knife to intercept the other party Kunai.

"No, I didn't notice the other party's problem. I'm just wary of any stranger who comes into close contact with you, Mr. Hisana."

Hao shook his head and answered this question.

Although the 'female store manager' is an acquaintance of Hisana, unfortunately, in her cognitive system, she is a stranger who needs to be wary.

"Uh... thank you for your hard work."

Hisana is really working too hard. At first, I thought that I was a little fussy about doing things. But now, I feel that I feel a sense of security.

"Let's do this. My husband will definitely come to my place tonight. You can work hard with me."

"..."

The face under the mask turned red.

Wouldn't it make you work harder this way?

Looking at Hisana's natural expression, she wouldn't regard this as a reward, would she?

I am not that kind of dirty woman!

She also doesn't want to open Byakugan like Hyuga Clan!

But when the words came to his lips, Hao swallowed them back.

Because Uzumaki Clan is still responsible for her future, this... This is all for the sake of the family. General is threatening her, what can she do?
