Chapter 356 The Darkest History
Chapter 356 The Darkest History
"Grandpa, your legs are not in good condition. The middle of the road is not safe. Let me help you to the side."
Lan originally wanted to pull Sasame around, but Sasame was kind-hearted. When he saw the old man sitting in the middle of the road, he thought he had fallen and wanted to help him.
"Ahem...Good boy, being kind is not a good thing..."
Danzo used the transformation technique and spoke in the disguise of an old beggar.
"Being kind-hearted might lead to someone taking advantage of you and harming you and your lover's brother."
Sasame's face turned red and she hid herself behind Lan.
What is this strange old man talking about! What lover... I hate it...
Danzo was stunned.
No, didn't you say you were going to help me? What did I say wrong? I was just trying to teach this little girl a lesson, why are you hiding?
Danzo has never touched a woman in his life. The woman he has had the most contact with is Yakushi Nono, and she was just a tool to him. How could he care about the thoughts of a little girl?
Fortunately, Lan had a good idea. When he heard Danzo's words, he knew that the other party might not be a simple beggar, so he hurried forward to help Danzo.
"I'm sorry, old man. My sister is still young and tends to be shy when meeting strangers. Let me help you to rest nearby."
"Good, good, good."
The two children helped Danzo up, one on each side.
"Ouch!!"
Danzo threw himself back down with a loud thud, and to make it more realistic, the fall was quite loud.
This gave Feng Molan and his sister a shock.
What’s going on?! I couldn’t even pull it. Is this old man so heavy?!
"You two boys, why did you knock me down! You did it on purpose! You did it on purpose! Ouch, my waist, my legs! My legs are broken!!"
Danzo, disguised as an old beggar, howled twice and then curled up on the ground, and Ren Pinglan couldn't pull him away no matter how hard he tried.
People gradually gathered around and pointed at Feng Molan and his sister.
"Tsk... Look at the kids nowadays, they really have no manners."
"What tutor? I've seen those two kids before. They're from an orphanage~"
"Orphanage? I remember the director, Ms. Nono, being a very nice person."
"Alas, you can only judge a person by his appearance, not his heart. Even if Yakushi Nono is a good person, there are so many children in the orphanage, there are always bad ones~"
Sasame couldn't stand this kind of grievance and immediately started sobbing.
Lan held Sasame tightly in his arms, protecting Sasame's young heart. He glared at the crowd around him who were pointing and talking, but there was nothing he could do.
Not only were the two siblings slandered, but the dean was also slandered. This made Feng Molan feel the true decline of morals in the world.
"No! We didn't hit him! We just wanted to help the old man to the side of the road!"
Feng Molan's defense was too weak and could not suppress the voices of the onlookers.
Some even questioned: "Why did you help if you didn't hit him?"
"Ouch~ It hurts so much, my leg~"
Danzo groaned twice at the right time, which made the onlookers believe it even more.
"Give way."
At this time, two Anbu ninjas appeared on the scene, squeezed through the crowd and came in front of Danzo.
After a brief investigation, one of the Anbu ninja stood up and spoke.
"A thigh fracture is not a serious injury, but it requires prompt treatment for an elderly person."
Then, the Anbu ninja looked at the Fuma Ran siblings.
"Both of you, come with us to the hospital. Regardless of whether you were the one who hit him or not, you should all take care of this old man until the results of the investigation come out."
When Lan heard what the Anbu ninja said, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The case had not been concluded yet and needed to be investigated, so there was still a chance to clear his name.
So Lan nodded, shielded Sasame with his coat, and followed the Anbu away.
One Anbu carried Danzo, and another Anbu carried Arashi and the other two to Konoha Hospital.
Konoha Hospital is generally not in a hurry to treat minor injuries like fractures, especially for those who are not ninjas, so no medical staff came to take over the ward for a while.
Danzo lay on the bed, motionless, and the Arashi siblings felt extremely depressed.
It really proves what Danzo said, that kind hearts may be exploited.
"Brother...I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this..."
Sasame's eyes were filled with tears as he sobbed and apologized to Lan.
"It's okay, Sasame, you're not wrong."
Lan touched Sasame's head.
He didn't expect to encounter such a thing. He could actually blackmail people on the street. This old man is so mean!
"Ahem...boy, come here."
Danzo called out to Arashi, but Arashi didn't want to pay any attention to him.
"You don't have to pay for it, come here."
Danzo was helpless. What kind of trick was this? It made his already dark heart feel that his moral bottom line had dropped again.
You have to know that no matter how evil his actions were in the past, they were just arresting people or directly asking for people from major families.
Is it really not a beast to use such a sinister trick to kidnap two underage children? Mr. Gu Zang is indeed not a human, but he still wants to be a human!
But thinking of Mr. Gu Zang's words "If something goes wrong, don't... don't give me up", Danzo understood that Gu Zang did not want to participate in high-level decision-making, nor did he want people to know that he provided personal help to Danzo. After all, Mr. Gu Zang has always been fair and just, and if he did not agree with him, he would never make a move for him alone.
Hearing that he didn't have to pay compensation, Lan walked to the bed half-believingly, but still kept a certain distance from the bed.
It’s nothing, I’m just scared!
What if this old man rolls off the bed and says that I pulled him down and beat him up?
"Kid, there are too many eyes and ears outside. It's quiet here."
It was then that Danzo used the next move that Kozo had given him.
He took out a few books from his arms.
"Look, these are all out-of-print items, not sold anywhere else in the ninja world. All the major families will be jealous."
Lan took a closer look and saw that the books contained titles such as "Advanced Chakra Training Manual" and "Required Training Methods for Ninjas".
Most importantly, there is a book called "A Collection of Secret Techniques of the Former Great Clans' Ninjas"!
The Fuma clan was once the most powerful clan in the ninja world!
"Looking at your bones... Um, it's amazing. You're a good material for practicing ninjutsu."
Danzo stuttered as he repeated what Gu Zang had said. Gu Zang had told him that if he said it in full, even a child with high aspirations would be fooled!
"I have several secret manuals here that I wouldn't show to anyone but you. We're destined for each other, and you're such a kindhearted person, so I'll sell them all to you for fifty taels! Um... you'll see results in ten days, guaranteed to boost your chakra. If you don't like them, I'll refund you. How's that?"
It's a lie...
Lan frowned, half believing and half doubting.
But Danzo didn't give him a chance.
He's almost lost all his face, and he's run out of tricks. What is he still doing standing here? Waiting for the people from Konoha Hospital to come and investigate and see through his identity?!
Those two Anbu just now were actually Root ninjas in disguise!
While Arashi was still stunned and hadn't reacted, Danzo deftly stuffed a few books into Arashi's arms, took Arashi's wallet, and disappeared in the ward.
After returning to the root, Danzo's old face turned red and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the purse that was less than fifty taels, Danzo spat on the ground, his heart full of contempt for his own sinister nature.
He was also thinking about whether he should kill the two men who had just cooperated with him.
If this were to be exposed, it would become his darkest darkest point in history!
