0478 Hidden Clouds Second Mission (Ch 0478)

Just after the handover at four o’clock, Dong Si took off the first-generation wireless headset that relied on micro-communication spells to operate in the backyard of the teahouse, said hello to the leader of the evening shift before leaving.

When Hongdou came over, she bought some delicious food and was stuffing a daifuku into her mouth. When others came over, Nachi was squatting on the wall licking his popsicle. In the morning, however, he was the most serious, sitting cross-legged on the roof across the street, and had already opened his notebook to start writing a report.

Dong Si asked the team to gather around Zao Jian. Zao Jian’s pen tip gently poked the paper and said, “Target A’s schedule today is exactly the same as yesterday. Including the length of time he stayed at the flower shop, the timing of turning outside the Hyuga clan territory, and the time he returned to the hotel, it was almost exactly the same.”

Hong flipped through the copy of the bookstore receipt. “Compared with the information provided by the previous team, the type of books purchased by Target C is exactly the same as the previous three times, but each time he picked up the same book, flipped through it, and didn’t buy it.”

Hongdou held up the wrapper, “Target B changed the fried noodle stand for lunch today. I also felt that the stand he patronized yesterday was not very tasty.”

“You only know how to eat. Be careful not to become a fat woman…”

When they went to the police department to file their report, Yashiro was lecturing the two young members, “If you damage the recorder, you will be fined. This is not a free gift from the Hokage’s office. The security department pays for its maintenance.”

Glancing at Fugaku’s office, Toushi complained, “No one is around during work hours, how nice.”

He stuffed the duty book into the filing cabinet and noticed that the number of letters in the complaint box had decreased. The newly posted duty regulations were still hanging on the wall, and someone had scratched the words “meddlesome” in a corner with a kunai.

When passing by the snack bar at the entrance of the commercial street, Nachi and Tunna were chatting about “why not try the new cuttlefish flavor.” Dong Si didn’t have time to have dinner with them, so he turned into the alley and went to the pharmacy where he could buy the raw materials for preparing the nutrient solution…

On the fourth day, at 4:15 in the afternoon, when Dong Si took off his headset, Hongdou was yawning at the sky: “Target B was a little strange when he was running in circles today. There were 7 manhole covers in a straight line, and he only bypassed 3 of them.”

“He was still hanging around the barrier class lounge in the afternoon, asking for directions, and even insisted on giving them some of Kumogakure’s specialty pickled plums.”

“Target C bought his seventh book today.” Hong stuffed the bookstore receipt into the file bag. “When choosing a book, he opened the book “The Legend of Strong Perseverance” again. This time, he flipped back and forth between pages 87 and 88 before putting the book back.”

“Jiraiya? A ninja novel written by a local in the ninja world…”

In the morning, he closed the mission log book and read: “This is the third time that Target A has stayed outside the Hyuga clan territory. Each time it is the patrol team’s shift change time.”

“You don’t really want to rob Hinata again, do you?”

“The Hyuga clan leader’s second daughter seems to be only half a year old…”

When Dong Si left the police department, he saw three Uchiha patrolmen helping the izakaya repair the sign along the way.

“The top letter in the complaint box clearly says “Thank you to Team 3 for helping to find my lost dog”. How could a thank you letter be stuffed into the complaint box? I never thought that there would be a thank you letter for Uchiha…”

In the evening, the cool breeze slowly flowed into the corridor of the Hokage Building, and Dong Si stopped at the corner. He heard the conversation between Shikaku and Sandai, and vaguely mentioned border intelligence.

“… Two new outposts have been added to Shimotsuki Gorge, each with 75 soldiers stationed there.” Shikaku’s voice came over the rustling sound of the scroll unrolling, “Yesterday, Yunyin transported 12 truckloads of supplies to the northern slope of the gorge.”

Dong Si looked down at the notebook in his arms. On the first page was written –

[8:40-9:02 am, Darui ran twelve laps around the State Guesthouse]…

[12:36-12:57 noon, Darui ate at stall No. 75, Central South Street]…
