After Uchiha Mitsuki left, Yuhi Mako sat in the private room and thought for a long time.
During this period, the waiter came with people from the security department, but nothing happened, so they had to retreat.
Yuhi Zhenhong acted like a wooden figure from beginning to end, sitting there in silence.
His heart was disturbed by Uchiha Mitsuki's last words before leaving.
Ask yourself, among the new generation of Konoha, Uchiha Mitsuki has the best reputation, and there has never been any negative rumors.
If he is really a deep-minded and scheming betrayer, then why do so many people continue to support him?
Are they stupid?
As soon as this idea came up, Yuhi Zhenhong rejected it. It's okay for one or two people to be stupid, but isn't it funny for a group of people to be stupid?
Since, they have no problem.
——Then the problem must lie with yourself.
But Yuhi Zhenhong feels that she is not stupid. In this case, what is the problem?
With such questions, he walked out of the izakaya.
The dark night did not stop people's enthusiasm for consumption. There were many pedestrians of all kinds visible to the naked eye.
However, some special changes seemed to have occurred in them.
But for a while, Yuri Zhenhong couldn't tell what they had changed.
Just as his thoughts were racing, several members of the security department, dressed in neat uniforms, passed by him.
Yuhi Zhenhong found that they seemed to have changed too - becoming more confident and energetic!
Coincidentally, when he passed by a fruit shop, he even clearly saw the owner's unconcealable smile from the bright peel.
"Young man, do you want to buy some out-of-season fruits? There are discounts now!"
"discount?"
Yuhi Zhenhong felt confused and raised her head to look at her boss.
Speaking of discounts, the chubby boss touched the back of his head and seemed a little embarrassed, "Mizuki-sama is about to become Hokage-sama, so we all discussed a discount to celebrate. I am a small business here and only have a 30% discount. Next door
BBQ Q even has free orders tonight!”
After hearing what the boss said, Yuhi Zhenhong couldn't help but frown.
In his opinion, these wealthy businessmen are indeed profit-seekers who take advantage of the changing circumstances.
No, even before the Third Hokage abdicated, they began to kneel down and cater to Uchiha Mitsuki.
The human world is too real!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but leave in a depressed and angry mood.
At this moment, walking in the noisy commercial street, Yuhi Mahong could completely imagine that her back must be in a very embarrassed state, and this humiliation was thanks to Uchiha Mitsuki.
As he walked, he came to the tea house at the east end. In the past, this calm and peaceful place to hide from the rain was now full of noise.
Those noisy and chaotic discussions were like sharp arrows hitting his fragile eardrums.
Yuhi Zhenhong covered his ears and planned to leave here quickly. However, after taking a few steps, he was attracted by what the storyteller in the teahouse said.
Yuhi Zhenhong walked in like a ghost.
"The era of the Sandaime's rule is finally over." The storyteller patted the table with a smile on his face, "Today we will tell the story of Lord Mitsuki..."
While listening to the storyteller's story, Yuhi Zhenhong found a corner with relatively few people and sat down silently.
…
Ten minutes passed quickly in the storyteller's eloquent and ups and downs narration.
As the story ended, fierce applause broke out in the teahouse.
However, sitting in the corner and listening for a long time, Yuhi Zhenhong felt a little uninterested and had no idea what these people were happy about.
So driven by curiosity, Yuhi Zhenhong pulled the middle-aged man next to her and started chatting.
"Uncle, what are they happy about?"
The man looked at him in surprise, "Aren't you happy?"
"Why should I be happy?"
Seeing the slightly surprised expression on the man's face, Yuhi Zhenhong was very confused.
The man glanced at Yuri Zhenhong, his expression became more and more surprised, as if he was looking at a stranger.
"The Sandaime stepped down and Lord Mitsuki took over. Isn't this a happy thing?"
"Why?"
Yuhi Zhenhong frowned and asked the question that she wanted to ask most along the way.
"It seems that you are a noble person. It is normal that you don't know our difficulties."
The man looked up and down at Yuri Zhenhong, looking at his exquisite clothes, he suddenly realized.
"Konoha is the richest and most stable village among the major ninja villages, and its tax revenue is naturally the highest. We can reluctantly accept these. After all, spending more money to buy peace is actually okay when you think about it."
"However, since the decline of the Senju clan, the third generation has raised taxes by several percentage points, with no intention of leaving a way for businessmen to survive."
"Now that he has fallen, can we not be happy? As long as Lord Mitsuki sees our sincerity and returns the previous taxes, we will support him as Hokage!"
The man's decisive tone was like a heavy hammer hitting Yuri's true heart.
He didn't know these things!
——As a member who is qualified to participate in the Jonin Conference, he doesn’t even know!
This simply subverted his understanding of the Third Hokage!
You know, in recent years, there has not been much infrastructure construction in the village, and not long ago the medical department had a quarrel with Elder Xiaochun due to a shortage of medical supplies!
Since the money was not used for good purposes, where did it go?
This terrifying question took root in my heart instantly and grew into a towering tree!
Could it be that all this money went into the pockets of the Sarutobi clan?
It shouldn't be... right?
Yuhi Zhenhong was startled by this sudden thought, and her pupils shrank suddenly.
At this moment, he wanted to find some evidence to refute, but as he thought about it carefully, the outrageous answer in his mind became more and more firm.
Suddenly, he realized that the family's expenses in recent years seemed to be somewhat abnormal.
It is clear that the Yuhi clan is only a small clan, but they have built their clan into a place that is more impressive than the Uchiha clan.
Where did this money come from?
Xihi Zhenhong couldn't help but ask herself.
Soon, he connected together some details that he didn't pay much attention to before.
His family has always been related to the Sarutobi clan by marriage, and the two families are almost indistinguishable from each other.
If these unreasonable taxes flow to the Sarutobi clan, then their Yuhi clan will definitely get a share of the pie.
If you think about it this way, everything will be explained!
"It turns out that I am an accomplice! No wonder the elders in the clan strongly oppose Uchiha Mitsuki becoming Hokage."
At this thought, a sad smile appeared on the corner of Yuhi Zhenhong's mouth.
No wonder Uchiha Mitsuki would say that he killed people to preserve the reputation of the Third Hokage. No wonder Uchiha Mitsuki would ignore the friendship between teachers and students and compete with his master for the position of Hokage!
It turns out that Konoha has been suffering from Sarutobi Hiruzen for a long time!
At this moment, Yuhi Zhenhong’s faith has collapsed!
