Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Chapter 31: Life is Like a Play, it all Depends on Acting!

Those young ninjas with flamboyant personalities, with a person like that, he could instantly see through their depths.

What kind of personality.

What kind of ability.

Was it a bluff or a well-thought-out plan?

At least eighty to ninety percent.

But the Aoba in front of him...

Yuta could not see anything at all. Right before he found Aoba this time.

He once thought that Aoba was a tight-lipped honest man.

Now, he realized that it was not the case.

This was a smart person! A very, very smart person!

"Aoba, have you ever thought of leaving Konohagakure Intelligence Division? I feel that with your ability, you might have a greater future when you return to the clan."

Yuta asked in a deep voice.

"How could I have any ability!"

Aoba shook his head. He waved his hand and said, "It's enough for the family to have Inoichi."

"I see."

Yuta did not say much. He just thought in his heart.

If he had said it before today, he would definitely believe it. But now that he heard it, he felt that it was quite strange.

Looking at the entire Yamanaka clan, almost everyone felt that Inoichi far surpassed Aoba.

Oh, no!

The people of the clan might have forgotten about Aoba!

In their hearts, Aoba did not even have the qualifications to compare with Inoichi.

This was terrifying!

There was actually someone who could keep a low profile to such a degree!

The more Yuta thought about it, the more his gaze towards Aoba gradually changed. He began to plan more things in his heart...

"Captain Yuta, if there is nothing else, I want to go back to work."

Aoba felt that the look in Yuta's eyes was gradually becoming anxious, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if staying here would be harmful to himself.

"Don't worry."

Yuta waved his hand. He was in the stage of being curious about Aoba, and how could he let Aoba go like this? Then he asked, "Why did you advise me not to care about the case of village people's disappearance?"

"Because that is not your task."

Aoba really wanted to leave, but Yuta refused to let him go. If he forced himself to leave, it would arouse suspicion, so he could only continue to ask and answer.

"What if it is?"

Yuta's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Then go investigate."

Aoba felt that the topic had changed. He did not want to continue this topic, but he could not ignore Yuta.

"Then..."

Yuta said meaningfully, "What if it's your mission?"

"What are you going to do?"

Aoba's pupils contracted slightly. Then, he recovered in an instant. He had an ominous feeling in his heart. He felt that this old man was very bad, and he definitely had bad intentions.

"I was just asking out of curiosity."

Yuta stared at Aoba with a burning gaze and asked, "What will you do? Escape? Or investigate?"

"Investigate."

Aoba replied in a low voice. As an Anbu ninja, he had to complete the task when he received it. If it were for his task, he would find a better solution, but escaping was definitely the worst way to deal with it.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Yuta said "good" three times in a row, and a smile bloomed on his tense face again.

"Captain Yuta, I don't want to..."

Aoba hurriedly said. Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Yuta.

"I don't have the ability to issue such a task to you."

Yuta said.

"..."

Aoba instantly fell silent.

That was the case.

However, he felt that something was wrong. Something was very wrong!

He seemed to have been tricked!

"Hahaha..."

Yuta looked at Aoba's appearance and suddenly burst out laughing. His laughter was bright and clear.

He finally got an advantage in their conversation.

Finally, he wasn't feeling aggrieved!

After that, Yuta chatted with Aoba for a while.

Their conversation was completely meaningless.

His purpose was to distract Aoba and to let Aoba relax his vigilance!

"Alright."

Yuta looked at the teapot and saw that there was no tea left. He looked at Aoba with satisfaction.

"We had a good chat today."

"That's it then."

"If there's a chance in the future, let's drink tea together!"

Yuta no longer asked Aoba to stay. Instead, he took the initiative to end the tea session.

"Yes."

Aoba nodded and got up. Without any courtesy, he turned around and planned to leave.

There was a special feeling in his heart.

It seemed that Yuta was setting him up to scheme against him.

However, he just couldn't tell what the problem was.

Just as Yuta had said, he didn't have the qualifications or ability to issue a mission for him.

However, he still felt that he might still have something to do with this missing person case...

Can't I just stay quietly in Konohagakure Intelligence Division?

Aoba complained helplessly in his heart.

"Oh right..."

Right at this moment, Yuta's voice sounded out once more, and it stopped Aoba, who was about to leave.

"Just half a month ago."

"I officially left Konohagakure Intelligence Division."

"I am no longer Konohagakure Intelligence Division's ninja."

"I am old."

"My body can no longer support me to use Mind Reading."

"I don't know how much time I have left."

"If I die one day..."

"Don't be sad!"

Yuta's voice suddenly softened as if he was leaving his last words. He told Aoba about the recent changes.

"Okay."

Aoba nodded, then stepped forward and left directly.

In a split second, Aoba's figure disappeared from the teahouse. There was no trace of nostalgia at all.

"What an emotionless fellow!"

Yuta looked deeply at Aoba's back as he left. The emotional scene on his face suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a serious expression.

"But..."

"Even if you are so cautious."

"Compared to me, you're still inexperienced!"

"Life is like a play. It all depends on acting!"

"Let me, a senior of the family, teach you another lesson!"

At this moment, the expression on Yuta's face changed. It was as if he had changed into a different person. His temperament had also changed, and he was no longer as old as before.

"Captain Yuta!"

All of a sudden.

A voice sounded from outside the teahouse, and it was accompanied by steady footsteps.

Aoba returned to the place where the two of them were drinking tea.

"What's wrong?"

Yuta seemed to have changed his face again, instantly appearing like an old man, as if taking a step would consume a lot of strength.

"When I left just now, I saw something on your head and felt that I should help you remove it."

Aoba walked straight towards Yuta, his pitch-black pupils focused on the latter's head.

Aoba's movements were very decisive. He had no intention of asking.

He directly raised his right hand and slapped it towards Yuta's head.

"There's something."

Yuta frowned. He instinctively wanted to reject Aoba, but Aoba had killed too suddenly this time. He had no time to prepare and could only allow Aoba to hit his head.

Pa!

Aoba gently patted Yuta's head with his palm and picked up a green tea stalk with his fingertips.

"Alright."

Aoba grinned, opened his palm, and showed the tea to Yuta.

At the same time, memory scenes came one after another, accompanied by the crisp sound of the system prompt appeared in his mind.
