"Director?"
When Xia Yan finished speaking, Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Sora both froze.
Sora truly knew nothing about Xia Yan's circumstances. She barely even understood his title of Squad Leader.
All she knew was that Xia Yan and Kakashi seemed to be on the same team, and that Xia Yan had become a Jonin and had even led Kakashi's team.

Even much of the information she learned afterward had come from other people.

He knew Xia Yan was an Anbu Captain. Otherwise, he could never have approached Xia Yan to get Shisui Uchiha into the Anbu.
