Chapter 136 Test!

next day

In the early morning, Bai An stood on the top of the back mountain, facing the rising sun, practicing Tai Chi, and the Golden Light Mantra circulated in his body. The surrounding Gang Qi gathered towards Bai An, and the Gang Feng enveloped Bai An. The Gang Feng was invisible, but under Bai An's Tai Chi, it took various forms.

Sometimes they gather into a ball; sometimes they look like cranes; sometimes they look like swift horses.

The sun was high in the east. Bai An stretched out his arms, and the strong wind dissipated instantly. Then he retracted his arms, exhaled lightly, and slowly opened his eyes.

He looked at his hands and then clenched his fists.

"There is still no sign of enlightenment or breakthrough. It seems that there is still a long way to go before the next stage..."

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. There was still an hour or two before work, and he could still do a lot of practice during this time. Then Bai An continued to move.

.......

Two hours later

Bai An went down the mountain. As soon as he got down the mountain, he found himself being stared at by many people and heard discussions one after another.

"Hey, have you heard? That person is said to be the apprentice of the Toad Sage Jiraiya."

"Ah!? What? So he is the one, my neighbor Goudan said he joined the police station as a police officer?"

"Yes, yes, I heard about it too. It is said that the Hokage personally visited the police station. I feel that there will be big changes in the police station."

......

Bai An raised his lips and listened to the discussion around him, thinking:

"That's exactly the effect we want... But this is a double-edged sword. We need to resolve Danzo's issue as soon as possible. Once that's resolved, we need to do something practical, otherwise the foam stars will easily crush people to death..."

Without thinking any more, Bai An rushed to the breakfast shop, bought a bunch of breakfast, and then quickly went to the police station.

Entering the police station, Bai An saw familiar faces. He smiled and greeted everyone.

"Comrades, good morning. I brought you some food. The police station is very busy right now. Work is important, but you have to eat well before you work. Otherwise, how can you protect the order in the village and serve the villagers?"

With yesterday's preparation, the police officers' favorable impression of Bai An soared, and as soon as the passionate words came out, the atmosphere in the police station was instantly mobilized.

"Officer Bai, that's right."

"Officer White is spending a lot of money."

"Thank you, Officer Bai."

After distributing breakfast, Bai An came to Uchiha Shisui's office.

Boom! Boom! Boom! —

"Enter!"

Bai An opened the door and saw Uchiha Shisui sorting documents with his head down.

Bai Eucalyptus said:

"You came quite early."

Uchiha Shisui smiled and said:

"I didn't leave last night."

Bai An came forward, put the breakfast on the table and said:

"Oh, you are so dedicated. Tell me what you do?"

Uchiha Shisui put the document on a corner of the table, looked at the breakfast, and said:

"Come to think of it, it's related to the food you delivered yesterday. You bought food for everyone again."

Bai An responded with a smile:

"Hey, you understood my intention without me even saying anything? You're really good, Brother Shisui."

Uchiha Shisui sighed:

"You're almost confusing the Anbu with the police. If that's the case, then the point of open recruitment is gone."

Bai An smiled and said:

"Humans are emotional animals after all."

Uchiha Shisui said thoughtfully:

"So we need to find a balance between maintaining professionalism and showing human care."

Bai An nodded in agreement.

"Just like when I practice Tai Chi, I need to combine hardness and softness."

Uchiha Shisui smiled and pointed to the breakfast on the table and said: "But I will remember your favor."

The two smiled at each other and began to discuss the work arrangements for the day.

Soon, the two of them finished their conversation. Bai An was about to leave the office when he suddenly thought of something and turned around and said:

"Oh, I remembered something. I almost forgot about it."

Uchiha Shisui asked:

"what?"

Bai Eucalyptus activated the shielding technique and said:

"Yesterday, Weasel came to my house for dinner. I asked for information about Murakami Rin. I wonder if it is consistent with the personal file information in the police station."

Uchiha Shisui gestured for him to speak, and Bai An said:

"According to Weasel, Murakami Rin once participated in the special training selection for the Anbu, but was eliminated."

Uchiha Shisui stroked his chin and said:

"This is definitely not written in his personal file."

Bai Eucalyptus said:

"Let's find a time to test him. From what I sensed about his aura and chakra fluctuations, it won't be a problem for him to enter the Anbu with his strength. I have a feeling that his elimination won't be that simple."

Uchiha Shi thought for a moment, nodded, and then asked:

"When will you test it?"

Bai An smiled slightly and said:

"In the afternoon, before that, Brother Shisui, you need to apply to the Hokage to go out. This way, Danzo will get what he wants."

Uchiha Shisui nodded, and then the two smiled at each other again.

......

in the afternoon

Uchiha Shisui went to the Hokage's office to apply to leave the village and was granted permission.

When Uchiha Shisui came back, he passed by Bai An's workstation and said:

"Bai An, come here for a moment."

Bai An replied:

"Yes."

Murakami Rin on the side glanced at him briefly.

Bai Eu came to Uchiha Shisui's office, took a step, and the shield was deployed.

"How's it going?"

Uchiha Shisui smiled and said:

"Everything goes well. The time is the day after tomorrow, and the location is the End Valley."

Bai An nodded, and then the two of them walked out of the office together.

They pretended to chat and walked past Murakami Rin, talking casually.

Murakami Rin's ears pricked up involuntarily.

Bai An noticed the change in his expression and snorted in his heart:

"The fox's tail is showing."

Then Bai An and Uchiha Shisui looked at each other. Uchiha Shisui understood what he meant, and then Bai An smiled and said:

"Officer Shisui, when are you planning on heading to the Valley of the End?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at the two of them, including Murakami Rin.

Uchiha Shisui said casually:

"The day after tomorrow, why, come with me?"

Bai An shook his head and declined:

"Forget it. I just arrived at the police station and I need to calm down."

Uchiha Shisui smiled and nodded, praising:

"Yes, with this state of mind you will definitely achieve something in the future."

After saying that, Uchiha Shisui handed a stack of useless documents to Bai An. Bai An took the documents and bowed his head slightly. At the same time, he observed the expressions of the individual police officers around him and Murakami Rin with his peripheral vision. They all frowned slightly, as if they were trying hard to control their emotions.

Uchiha Shisui returned to his office, lowered his head and began to think, with a cold light in his eyes. Bai An stayed in the work hall, sat next to Murakami Rin, looking at the documents carefully.

Bai An seemed to be concentrating on looking at the documents, but in fact he was watching Murakami Rin's every move with his peripheral vision.

He noticed that Murakami Rin's eyes kept glancing towards Uchiha Shisui's office, and she clenched her fists, and it was obvious that she was not at peace.

After a while, Bai An pretended to get up to pour water and deliberately whispered, "The End Valley is a dangerous place."

Murakami Rin's body trembled violently when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure.

The intention was clear, Bai An had already roughly analyzed it and thought:

"You are still young. Look at those old-timers. They act so naturally..."

After getting the water, Bai An returned to his seat and continued reading the documents, his brows sometimes relaxed and sometimes frowned.

Murakami Rin calmed down and took a glimpse of Bai An's condition, so he came up and asked:

"Is there anything you don't understand?"

Bai An said with a sad face:

"The information in these documents is so complicated that it's overwhelming for me. It would be better if I could go out and handle the case."

Murakami Rin smiled, patted Bai An's shoulder, and said:

"Don't worry, I can help you take a look."

As he spoke, Murakami Rin picked up a document and began to read it carefully.

However, Bai An noticed that Murakami Rin's eyes looked a little nervous.

Bai An secretly laughed in his heart. He decided to try again. He deliberately sighed and said:

"Oh, I really wish I could be as good as Officer Shisui and go on special missions."

Murakami Rin's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his smile and said slowly:

"Officer Shisui is indeed outstanding, but everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, just like you told me yesterday."

"Besides, your work ability was recognized by everyone yesterday."

Bai An nodded and said, "Yes, maybe I am more suitable for handling documents."

He secretly observed Murakami Rin's reaction and found that his fingers were tapping on the table nervously.

At this time, a police officer came over and handed Murakami Rin a document, saying, "Rin, here is an urgent document that needs your attention. Please hurry up. Officer Shisui needs it urgently."

Murakami Rin took the document, took a look at it, and then said to Bai An: "Sorry, I have to go and get busy first."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Bai An looked at his back with a barely perceptible smile on his face.

Judging from the nervous expression displayed by Murakami Rin, Bai An quickly made a judgment that Murakami Rin was at least 60% to 70% Danzo's man. Considering Murakami Rin's background, the probability rose to about 80%.

However, Bai An was also a little puzzled. Compared with other spies, Murakami Rin was undoubtedly a little ignorant, as if he was temporarily pulled here and forced to become an spy. And from Murakami Rin's complicated expression, his nervousness did not only come from the news he had just heard, but also mixed with a few traces of worry.

So, Bai An followed the clues and finally found the director of the orphanage who took care of Murakami Rin, Yakushi Nono.

Yakushi Nono and Yakushi Kabuto are now with Orochimaru, which proves that they have been assassinated. It can also be concluded that Yakushi Nono had been forced by Danzo to return to the Root to work before. In this case, will Murakami Rin also be implicated? Bai An believes that this probability is very high.

After a rough analysis, Bai An no longer thought about Murakami Rin's identity. He then continued to pretend to look through the documents and observed the other people who were interested. These people were better at hiding than Murakami Rin, but their micro-expressions still could not escape Bai An's eyes.

......

After an afternoon of observation, Eucalyptus leucophylla gained a lot.

He had already roughly analyzed the factions to which each spies belonged, and he found that the Hokage had more spies than Danzo.

Bai An thought:

"The old man's plan is almost slapping me in the face. However, in some ways, it coincides with my idea. This can not only observe the direction of the police station, but also take this opportunity to keep a close eye on Uchiha. Whenever Uchiha makes a move, it will affect the entire body. In fact, he is just waiting for a suitable opportunity and reason to get rid of Uchiha. There is no other way. In the eyes of the third generation old man, Uchiha has become an obstacle in his heart. Getting rid of him is nothing more than a matter of time. Moreover, when my identity was publicized, the dominance of the police station had already tilted towards the old man. It really kills two birds with one stone. It not only solves the contradictions since the establishment of the village, but also gains control of the police station..."

Bai An smiled helplessly and shook his head, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

"Tsk tsk, you are worthy of being the Hokage. I only thought of one or two things. This old man is almost working to the ceiling. Once the doves make up their minds, they are more ruthless than the hawks..."

"As for you, Danzo... I can only say that when you are in the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you..."

Without thinking any more, Bai An packed up his documents and prepared to go home.

At this time, Uchiha Shisui came to the hall and said to everyone:

"I'd like to announce that I have important matters to attend to and will need to leave the police station for a few days the day after tomorrow. All work will proceed as usual. Bai An will coordinate and arrange the details when the time comes."

Among the police officers, the expressions of four people changed slightly for a moment, but it was fleeting.

At the same time, Bai An stood up, bowed to the Chief Police Officer, and said modestly:

"Comrades, I am still inexperienced, so please give me your guidance."

At this moment, Bai An noticed the expressions of the four people and then smiled at them.

Seeing this, the four of them concealed their abnormality without leaving a trace. Ordinary people would not be able to notice this slight change at all, so they quickly said a few polite words.

Then Uchiha Shisui looked at Bai An and said seriously:

"Bai An, work overtime these two days to sort out the details and make arrangements. I will conduct an investigation when I come back."

Bai An replied:

"Yes."

Uchiha Shisui nodded and then left the police station.

Bai An looked at everyone, smiled and said jokingly:

"Comrades, I'm off work too. Oh, by the way, remember to have breakfast tomorrow, otherwise, I won't be able to afford my salary."

When the crowd heard this, some joked:

"I say, Officer Shiro, Officer Shisui just told you to work overtime, so you're off duty."

Bai An smiled and said:

"Of course, work is about efficiency. As long as I finish it before leaving get off work, there will be no overtime."

Some were amused by Bai An's words and said:

"Hahaha, Officer Bai, if you say that, then I won't eat tomorrow."

Bai An pretended to be unhappy and said:

"Zhongjun, you are so big, don't joke with me. When I heard you say that, I was trembling in my heart."

Everyone was amused by Bai An's easygoing and humorous manner, while the four people sitting in the corner were as steady as old dogs, laughing in unison. Bai An thought to himself:

"With this kind of acting skills, in the previous life, he would have at least been an award-winning actor."
