Chapter 24: The Truth of the Matter!
Chapter 24: The Truth of the Matter!
After Aoba finished reading this person's memories, it could be said that this middle-aged man had no secrets to speak of in front of him.
It was not only about today's stealing.
All of his previous stealing had been discovered.
"Now I will write out what you have done, and then you sign it. Our interrogation will be over."
According to the process, Aoba took out a scroll and wrote the crime of this middle-aged man on it.
Rustle rustle...
The tip of the pen and the scroll rubbed together, producing a subtle sound.
These sounds were not loud.
But at this time.
It was as if a megaphone had been added to it, greatly stimulating the middle-aged man's heart.
"You... you... How are you... sure that it was me?"
The middle-aged man had an unwilling expression on his face. He had never expected that the person he had treated like a rookie would know everything he had done.
The two boiled eggs that he had taken away in the morning!
Even the old lady might not have discovered it.
How could anyone know
It was as if they were watching him do it!
It was really inconceivable!
"Oh?"
Aoba stopped writing and looked up at the middle-aged man.
"You won't admit it?"
Aoba immediately asked. This was a very important matter.
He had read through all of his memories.
If the other party cooperated and signed it directly, this interrogation would be considered to have ended and he would be able to deliver the report perfectly.
However, if the other party does not admit it and refused to sign it...
Then he had to find a way to get the other party to sign it!
Aoba did not want to waste time with this middle-aged man.
For now.
This was the place where he would work in a short term.
This person's interrogation was over.
The next person would be arranged.
The crime rate in troubled times was quite high.
In fact.
It was not just a chaotic world.
Even the Konoha Military Police Force in a peaceful era came and went every day.
At this time.
After all, more people came.
Aoba would be able to read more memories and would obtain benefits from it.
Although the strength of these prisoners was not that strong, and they might not even be able to use ninjutsu, but directly getting chakra or spiritual increase would also shorten the time for him to become stronger.
"No... No..." The middle-aged man shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I admit it. I was just curious. How did you know?"
The middle-aged man was also helpless.
He also did not want to admit it.
But.
The other party had already said things to this extent.
There was no point in continuing on.
As the saying goes.
You won't shed tears until you see the coffin.
He had already seen the coffin.
So admitting it was not that shameful!
"I used Mind Reading on you and read your memories," Aoba said indifferently.
"Too... too extravagant!"
The middle-aged man's mouth twitched. He had heard of this secret technique before. It existed in Konoha's Konohagakure Intelligence Division, but not everyone was worthy of using it.
He was just a market thief.
But he used the Mind Reading Technique just to get his information.
It was too exaggerated!
In particular, he didn't even follow the process of interrogating him. He directly read her mind.
Even he knew that the Mind-Reading Secret Technique was usually used when interrogating stuborn Ninjas.
"Sign it."
Aoba ignored the middle-aged man's shock and directly wrote the crime committed by the latter on the scroll. Then he took it in front of the middle-aged man.
"Okay..."
The middle-aged man helplessly took the pen.
He signed it and his face suddenly became very ugly. He instantly aged several years.
After that.
Aoba called the guard over.
He handed over the interrogation confession and the middle-aged man.
...
In the next three days.
Aoba spent his days in this dark compartment.
It was more than an interrogation.
Rather, it was better to say that he was quickly reading through memories.
Even Aoba couldn't remember how many people he read.
Most of these people gave him an increase in chakra, and only a few of them increased his spiritual energy.
Coupled with the training after Aoba finished his work.
In a short three days.
It made him feel a clear improvement in his own strength.
After three days of reading memories.
Aoba found that the efficiency of the Konoha Military Police Force catching people was quite high.
These people who had their memories read.
More or less.
They had all committed a crime.
No one was innocent!
On this point.
Aoba thought of the conflict between Konoha Military Police Force and the village residents in the next few years.
It seems...
The conflict was not something that could be achieved overnight!
Their capturing of criminal was so accurate!
Then the success rate of being sent to prison would be high!
This way.
Over time.
Wouldn't they offend some people?
In addition, the group hidden in the back added fuel to the fire, causing the conflict to intensify, finally causing the collective riot of the Uchiha clan.
Through the dark side of the Konohagakure Intelligence Division that Aoba saw, he gradually realized that many things had reason.
The things that happened.
It was not as simple as it seemed.
It might have been planted a long time ago!
However.
Aoba felt that maintaining the security of the village was the right thing to do.
At least from his current point of view and position, the Konoha Military Police Force did not do anything wrong. It was just that whether the Konoha Military Police Force had done other excessive things or not, whether they would arrest people or not, he did not know.
...
"This person has randomly made up truth and slander higher-ups. I'll leave it to you."
The guard leader brought a few people to escort a man and tied him to a wooden stake, he then nodded at Aoba.
In the past few days, the guard Captain had seen the speed of Aoba's interrogation.
This made him first send the people who felt difficult and the people who needed more urgency to Aoba when he was escorting the suspect.
He had a very good impression of Aoba.
He vaguely felt that this young Anbu Ninja might have a good future in Konohagakure Intelligence Division.
After the guard Captain tied the person up, he took a deep look at Aoba and turned to leave.
Aoba looked at the man who was tied.
He looked like he was in his early twenties.
He was not much older than him.
He was wearing thin white clothes. His clothes were very dirty, and there were some traces of his arrest.
"I didn't slander!"
"What I said was the truth!"
"I heard everything with my own ears!"
"Why don't you believe me?"
"You even arrested me!"
The man shouted hysterically. He took the initiative to report the case, but he was caught instead.
At first, he didn't think much of it.
But now that he was sent here, he finally panicked, especially when he saw the torture instruments. He was in a bad mood.
"I don't need you to tell me the details. I'll take a look myself."
Aoba was too lazy to waste his breath. He had come to a conclusion over the past few days. Every prisoner brought here said that he had not committed any crimes.
Suddenly.
Aoba raised his right hand and pressed it on the man's head.
Hum!
Aoba's body trembled slightly.
Then, a stream of memories gushed into his mind.
[Ding Dong! Memory Reading Succesful! Obtained, Spiritual energy increased!]
A clear electronic prompt sounded in Aoba's mind. This was one of the few rewards that could be obtained after reading the memories.
The increase in chakra and spiritual energy could only be obtained when reading the memories of ordinary people. Most of them were Chakra increased. Only some people with firm conviction would have spiritual energy increase.
Looking at his memories.
Aoba began to check what this man had said.
Almost in an instant.
Aoba widened his eyes and his pupils shrank. Then, he quickly returned to normal.
"So that's how it is!"
Aoba suddenly realized the truth. He understood the truth about the deaths of the prisoners in the prison cell...
