——————————————————— “To be honest, even if I don’t go to the temple to check it out, I am [-]% sure that the so-called undead warrior is the current incumbent of the Bird Kingdom. Daimyo, Heron." Naruto scratched his hair and said, "From the various details observed before, we have basically determined the roles played by these dignitaries of the Bird Kingdom in this boring game."

"Oh? You know?" Kakashi said with a frown, "I don't know yet, what have you seen, tell me in detail."

"First of all, Master Heron, the great name of this country of birds, is actually a woman!" Naruto said astonishingly as soon as he came up: "Didn't it mean that Master Heron had a twin sister Toki who died half a year ago? It can be deduced that the current Master Heron is probably the dead Toki, and the person who died half a year ago should be the real name of the Land of Birds, Heron."

"As for why this Toki did this, it is nothing more than a few reasons. Her brother died unexpectedly. As a woman, she cannot justifiably succeed the daimyo. If she wants to find out the murderer behind the murder of her father and brother, then she must Continue to control the power, and the only and quickest way is to incarnate as your elder brother, anyway, they are also twin brothers and sisters, as long as you are careful, no one will notice it, even if you see a little problem, you dare not speak directly."

Naruto shrugged and said, "As for the so-called most suspected counselor Hongming, he is probably the most upright one in this game. As for the murderer behind the scenes, I guess it is probably the so-called eminent monk Meng Zong."

"So that's how it is...is that so..." Listening to Naruto's analysis, Kakashi nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Naruto and said, "Then how did you determine that the counselor Hong Ming is innocent, but Meng Zong, the client of this mission, is the murderer, and Hong Ming seems to be the most suspect."

"It's very simple, because everything is so logical. How can there be anything in this world that is [-]% certain? How can there be such a simple thing." Naruto said sharply: "From Neji and the others From the moment people entered the city, and even from the moment they received the mission, everything was pointed at the counselor Hong Ming intentionally or unintentionally, a guy who can serve as a counselor for a country, if he really has evil intentions, will he reveal so many obvious flaws?"

"And the most important point, when the ibis pretending to be an undead warrior attacked Hongming's mansion, the counselor Hongming must have seen something. After all, he is a counselor. He should have good observation skills and be calm enough. " Naruto yawned and said boredly: "That's why when the soldiers under him were about to attack, he stopped him. If he was really a schemer with evil intentions, he would have ignored the order to shoot arrows Killed."

"I see." Kakashi nodded thoughtfully and said, "Since when did you start to doubt all this?"

"When?" Naruto rubbed his chin and said, "At first, I doubted it probably because Meng Zong's words always implied that Hongming was the mastermind behind the scenes, intentionally or unintentionally. When Daimyo Lu-sama doesn’t have Adam’s Apple.”

"There is no Adam's apple..." Kakashi looked at Naruto in disbelief, and said in silence for a long time, "...that's all?"

"Aren't these enough?" Naruto spread his hands and said, "Although each clue seems useless, once they are connected in series, everything becomes obvious. It's just a simple logical reasoning."

Listening to Naruto's words, Kakashi looked at Naruto with some emotion and said: "You boy...I really have nothing to teach you now, you are already an excellent ninja in your own right."

Naruto might be happy if he heard Kakashi praise him before, but now he...

There was no fluctuation in my heart, and I even wanted to laugh a little.

"Excellent ninja...?" Naruto lowered his head and smiled slightly, then raised his head and said to Kakashi: "Speaking of which, if you have nowhere to go, Mr. Kakashi, why don't you go to my place at night Rest here for the night, my house over there is quite big."

"Forget it, I'm relieved to see that you're fine." Kakashi waved his hand and said, "I'm still going to keep an eye on Neji and the three of them. Listen to what you said, they live in the room arranged by Meng Zong at night. The place is not safe, I don’t feel relieved if I don’t go to see it, how can I, as a teacher, neglect my duty in front of the students.”

After hearing what Kakashi said, Naruto didn't say much, and nodded directly to indicate that he knew, and the two separated like this, without the slightest reluctance to part with each other.

Kakashi has been a ninja for many years, and has already experienced countless life and death. It is not uncommon for this level of difference.

Naruto, on the other hand, has also experienced many things, and his heart is strong, and this kind of calm separation can no longer stir up waves in his heart.

Besides, everyone is still in the country of birds. If you want to see each other when you can't see each other, it's important to do business first.

Naruto returned to the village of Jingichiro's family, at this time Kyuubi and Hase Ryusheng had already returned, Naruto tiptoed into the living room, just about to go to sleep, Hase Ryusheng suddenly turned over and spoke in a low voice.

"Are you back?" Zhang Gu Longsheng whispered, "How's the investigation going?"

"It's okay, basically I figured out what's going on." Naruto also replied in a low voice: "But I'm not in the mood to care about their affairs now, just leave it to my friends, they can handle it. "

Hearing Naruto's words, Hase Longsheng hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Actually, I suggest you...to help them tomorrow."

"What's the matter?" Naruto saw Hase Ryusheng take the initiative to say such a thing for the first time, and he couldn't help asking curiously, "Did something happen?"

"Today when you were away, a servant from the landlord's house came to Uncle Jing Yilang's house and said that he wanted to increase the rent." Chang Gu Longsheng glanced at the bedroom, and then whispered: "I also heard it inadvertently, as if to say The originally planned bird selection competition cannot be held, and the country has lost a lot, so a wave of taxes has to be increased, and then the landlord told Uncle Jing Yilang’s family that the rent will be increased.”

"So if you can really solve it, I think you should go and help." Longsheng Hase sighed and said in a low voice: "If the matter is solved, Uncle Jing Yilang's family may not need to increase the rent, I think they Really sad today."

Hearing Hase Longsheng's words, Naruto was silent for a long time, the living room was silent for a while, only the crickets outside could be heard.

"I see." After a while of silence, Naruto sighed and said, "Then I will try to solve this matter tomorrow, so as to save night and dream."

"That's the only way." Chang Gu Longsheng didn't say much, continued to sleep with his clothes on and said, "Good night."

"Good night."

After Naruto replied, he didn't fall asleep immediately, but put his hands behind his head, staring blankly at the roof above, not knowing what he was thinking.

Naruto wasn't worried about whether the matter of the Bird Country could be resolved smoothly tomorrow. He had already basically locked in those people, namely the Daimyo of the Bird Country, the counselor Hong Ming, and the eminent monk Meng Zong.

Among them, the eminent monk Meng Zong should be behind the scenes, and he is also the one with the deepest scheming among the three. The current daimyo of Bird Country, the Toki who disguised herself as a man, should be an impulsive little girl who was instigated and deceived. The most interesting and worth pondering should be the counselor Hongming.

To be honest, Toki, who disguised herself as a man and became the current daimyo of Bird Country, her strategy of pretending to be an undead warrior is really a bit clumsy, and she can scare the low-level soldiers and people who don't understand anything. For a country's strongest strategist, or even a guy who is qualified to compete for the daimyo position, he should be able to see through it at a glance.

Judging from the fact that Hong Ming organized his soldiers to attack ruthlessly, Hong Ming must have figured out the true identity of the undead warrior.

But the question is, why doesn't this Hongming just tell the truth.

First of all, if Hongming is really the murderer who killed the previous daimyo, then he will definitely not show mercy to the current daimyo. Since he has shown mercy, it at least shows that he has no guilt in his heart.

Secondly, Hong Ming discovered the other party's true identity, not only did not reveal it, but even seemed to want to help the other party hide it, even at the risk of being assassinated, he didn't want to make this fact public.

This is really very interesting.

In order to protect the face of the current daimyo?

From the present point of view, it seems that this is the only reasonable explanation. A loyal counselor retainer, in order to protect the honor of the Patriarch, even if he is criticized and his life is in danger, he will not hesitate.

A loyal counselor?

Thinking of this, Naruto's mouth curled into a smile.

interesting.

Early the next morning, Naruto woke up slowly from his meditation. First he stretched his waist and stretched his body, and then as soon as he left the house, he saw Jing Ichiro walking in from the courtyard carrying a bucket.

Hase Ryusheng was still striding hard in the courtyard, and Naruto also felt that it was time to teach Hase Ryusheng new martial arts.

As for Kyuubi and Haruko, they are still hanging out together, but today they don't look at the ant nest and instead of chasing butterflies, Kyuubi didn't use the speed of a tailed beast to catch butterflies, but imitated Haruko, jumping and jumping on the ground clumsily flapping butterflies.

"Over there!" Haruko jumped forward with a smile, but the butterfly missed and almost fell into the mud.

Kyuubi hugged Haruko first, and Haruko stared at the butterfly in front of her with her mouth shut.

Kyuubi waved his hand and stroked it lightly after seeing it, and a white powder puff butterfly appeared between his two fingers.

"Ninth brother, you are so amazing!" Haruko stared at the butterfly in Jiuwei's hand with wide eyes and said, "It's so beautiful! It's even more beautiful than the butterflies printed on pastries in the city."

"Cakes?" Kyuubi immediately became energetic when he heard that he was eating: "What's the taste? Is it delicious?"

"What kind of taste? I've never tasted it before." Haruko said in a daze, "I've only eaten mugwort dumplings once. It's bitter, but it's still delicious."

Kyuubi was silent for a moment when she heard Haruko's words, then gently let go of the butterfly in her hand, and said to Haruko, "There's a pink one over there, let's catch it!"

At this time, Jing Yilang, who had just entered the yard, was smiling and greeting Naruto and said, "You're awake. Breakfast will be ready in a while, just wait."

Naruto looked at Ichiro and smiled, but nodded without saying anything.

In fact, Jing Ichiro has always been worried about the work of fetching water yesterday morning, which was done by Naruto, a guest. He deliberately woke up early this morning. I basically did all the housework I could do.

It's just that Naruto found out when Jing Yilang went out. Although he was meditating, he was not completely insensitive to the outside world. He also guessed what Jing Yilang was thinking, so he deliberately pretended not to see it and let Jing Yilang Ichiro does it himself.

Anyway, it's just some housework, and as a guest, I can't make the host's house feel uncomfortable, then I will really become a bad guest.

After fetching water, Jing Yilang went directly to the firewood pile beside him to chop firewood. It seemed that he was determined not to let Naruto touch anything about housework today.

Naruto thought for a while, and simply walked over to Kazumi's mother-in-law to help wash the vegetables.

Granny Hemi was squatting on the ground washing the vegetables, with a sad expression on her face, and she was in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, Naruto didn't even react when he came to her.

"Grandma Kazumi?" Naruto called softly, then stretched out his hand and said, "Leave the rice to me to wash, I'm the best at washing this."

"Ah? Oh!" Granny Hemei reacted, a rare panic appeared on her face, and then quickly covered up the sad expression on her face, put on a gentle smile and said: "Then I will leave it to Naruto-kun. "

In fact, what Kazumi was thinking at the moment was what Hase Ryusheng quietly told Naruto last night, because the bird selection competition in the country of birds will not be held, the number of tourists will be greatly reduced, and the income will be insufficient, so the tax will be increased.

Originally, it would be fine if their family just added a tax. After all, there are so many taxes. If there are too many lice, they are not afraid of biting. Just borrow some money and pay it back slowly, but the bad thing is that not only people like them pay more taxes, but the landlords also pay taxes.

The landlord paid more money and must find a way to make up for the money from other places, so he directly announced that the rent for this year will be increased by [-]%.This is tantamount to a bolt from the blue for Jing Yilang's family.

Adding [-]% to the rent does not seem like much, but you must know that after a year of hard work, the Ichiro family can earn a total of [-]% of the income, and the other [-]% is used to pay the rent. Now add another [-]%. It is equivalent to saying that the annual income of Jing Yilang's family has dropped by a quarter directly. With the addition of the previous tax increase, it is really impossible to make up for it now.

Originally, Hemi Granny asked if he could ask Naruto-kun to see if he could do anything, but Ichiro refused to let him live or die. In the end, Ichiro said that he would go to the landlord and renew the lease for another ten years, and then borrow some money. Food and money, get through this year.

Granny Kazumi has no other choice but to wipe her tears. Jing Yilang has already carried a ten-year lease on his body, and if he continues for another ten years, he may only be able to work until he dies, but she is just a weak woman. The decision can only be silently supported.

Naruto also noticed Granny Kazumi's distressed look, but he didn't say anything, because it was useless to say it, and Uncle Ichiro would definitely not accept his gift again. The best way now is to set off as soon as possible to solve the Bird Country That boring undead samurai incident brought everything back on track.

After breakfast, Naruto and Hase Ryusheng talked to Kyuubi, and then went out to the meeting place agreed with Neji and the others yesterday.Because Kyuubi made an appointment with Haruko to go to the field to catch frogs later, he didn't make a fuss about going to the city with Naruto, but asked Naruto to bring him some pastries when he came back, preferably with a butterfly printed on it kind of.

Although I don't know why Kyuubi suddenly wants to eat cakes, and they must be printed with butterflies, but Naruto agreed, and then walked out of the village, all the way to the place that he had previously agreed with Neji and the others. The next time, the three of them showed up at the intersection with Brother Qiandao.

"What are we going to do today?" Xiao Li said energetically as soon as he came up, "Do you want to monitor that counselor Hong Ming? He is the most suspicious!"

"That's right, he's probably scared out of his wits now." Tian Tian also interjected, "He must be hiding in his room and dare not come out."

"I think it's better to go to the temple last night." Ning Ci put forward a different opinion and said, "It's easier to investigate now if you go during the day."

Of course, Naruto knew that nothing could be found by monitoring Hongming. Originally, he had promised Mr. Kakashi not to intervene, and let Xiao Li and the three solve it by themselves.

But the situation is different now. In order to get Uncle Ichiro's family exempted from that inexplicable tax as soon as possible, he should do it himself.

So Naruto said directly: "I think it's better to go to the temple to have a look. I always feel weird there, maybe I can find something."

Although Naruto only joined the three of them halfway, the three of them had regarded Naruto as the backbone without knowing it, so they directly agreed with Naruto's proposal and went to the temple to check together.

A few people came to the temple where the undead warrior disappeared last night, searched inside, and Naruto quickly found clues.

"Come and see here." Naruto felt the palm of his hand on the floor, raised his head with a smile and said, "There is wind blowing from the floor."

"Is there wind on the floor?" Xiao Li quickly stepped forward to feel it, and then said pleasantly, "It's really windy."

"It means the bottom is empty." Naruto tapped his finger on the floor and said, "It is estimated that the undead warrior escaped from here last night."

After finishing speaking, Naruto took out Kunai and pried it on the floor, revealing a hidden secret door leading directly to the ground.

"True!?" Tiantian said in surprise, "It seems that we can finally find out the true face of that undead warrior!"

The few people walked down the tunnel without saying a word. They walked for tens of minutes along the way, and finally came to the exit at the other end.

From the exit, looking around, it is obvious that it is in a very luxurious courtyard.

"Here..." Brother Qiandao who came out last looked around with a confused expression and said, "Why does it feel so familiar?"

"Wait a minute..." Brother Qiandao gradually came to his senses, and subconsciously said in surprise, "Isn't this the mansion of your lord?!"

"what?!"

Tian Tian and Xiao Li on the side said in unison: "Master Daming's mansion?!"

Why is the tunnel used by the undead warriors to escape, but why did it finally lead to the Daming Mansion? Could it be that the undead warriors are hiding in the Daming Mansion?

It's a pity that before a few people figured it out, because their frightened and amplified voices subconsciously attracted the attention of the guards patrolling around.

"who is it!"

"Who is there!"

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps in the distance, Naruto reacted very quickly and directly pushed the few people into the tunnel, then turned back into the tunnel himself, and closed the passage with his backhand.
