Bribing The Minister

Half an hour later, Jin returned with a thick stack of documents. He placed them on the table and said,

"Sir, these are all found in the house of Shota Shimokawara."

Shota's vest had long been drenched in sweat. He said fiercely,

"Uchiha Tunan, I advise you not to look."

"Some things are too serious. It is not good for anyone."

"I understand all the principles."

As a person, why do you have two eyes?

It is to turn a blind eye to some things.

Uchiha Tunan casually flipped through the records, then looked at the people in the swamp and said,

"This is the reason why you don't dare to talk, right?"

Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.

Uchiha Tunan chuckled and instructed,

"Jin, burn all these."

Jin respectfully replied, "Yes, Lord Tunan."

Then, he took out a brazier and burned all the records in front of everyone.

Shota looked at Jin burning all of them, and said with a gloating tone,

"You're finished. The thing you burned just now contained the City entrance tax book. This is to give the finance minister a report."

"I want to see how you will explain it when the time comes."

Hearing this, Uchiha Tunan frowned and said with a surprised expression,

"Who said it was me who burned it? It was clearly me who wanted to check the accounts. You were worried that the corruption would be exposed and burn the tax book."

"Everyone present can testify for me."

When Shota heard this, he was stunned and roared, "You are slandering."

Uchiha Tunan ignored him. Instead, he looked at the people in the swamp and said,

"Everyone, I believe that you are all people who abide by the law and will not associate with this guy."

"Those who want to report him can speak freely."

"These are all achievements. Even if you don't get promoted, you will still be paid."

"Jin, help me record it."

"Everyone has to mark out who said it and let them personally press their fingerprints."

"By the way, even if no one says it, mark it. I suspect that person is Shota's accomplice in the crime."

After saying that, Uchiha Tunan picked up the teacup, lowered his eyes, and pecked at it.

There was a moment of silence, but soon, someone broke the silence.

"I'll speak, Shota is privately collecting protection fees from the gangs outside the city."

"He also released illegal items into the city."

"He also protected several human trafficking organizations."

...

Time passed little by little.

Uchiha Tunan released everyone who had confessed to Shota's crime.

Jin quickly recorded the crime in his book.

When no one came out to report, he handed the book to Uchiha Tunan.

Uchiha Tunan waved the notebook in front of Shota and said,

"Have you seen it clearly? Is it enough for you to die?"

Shota took a few deep breaths and pretended to be tough. "There is no solid evidence. According to the law of the Fire Country, you can't do anything to me."

Uchiha Tunan smiled and shook his head. Then he pointed to a northern city guard and said,

"We are colleagues. You come to send him off. I remember that you have the most crimes."

The northern city guard looked around and walked to the front with a trembling voice.

Reaching out, he picked up a kunai and looked at Shota with a hesitant expression.

After all, he knew so many things about Shota because the two of them had a good personal relationship. He had participated in all these things.

At this time, Shota was really panicked. He said with a face full of horror,

"No! I submit to you. I am willing to do anything you want me to do..."

Uchiha Tunan did not budge.

He rubbed his chin and pretended to think.

"If you submit to me, you will still be the vice-captain. Then today's matter is just a misunderstanding."

"You won't take revenge on these people who reported you, will you?"

"Pfft!"

As soon as Uchiha Tunan finished speaking, the City Guard of the North ruthlessly stabbed Kunai into the heart of Shota.

When Uchiha Tunan saw that Shota had died, he slapped his forehead in annoyance.

"It's my fault. I've thought about it for too long. I can't regret it now."

"In the future, you will be the vice-captain."

"Thank you, Lord Tunan."

The Northern City Guard knelt on both knees and kowtowed heavily towards Uchiha Tunan.

Uchiha Tunan nodded his head in satisfaction. He pointed at the few people in the mud and said,

"I'll leave the rest to you."

When those people saw that Shota had been killed, they were already panicking. They all shouted,

"Sir, Shota had forcefully kidnapped women."

"Shota had bribed the Wei Manor's leader."

"Pfft!"

...

Was he colluding with the leader of the Wei Mansion?

A trace of thought flashed through Uchiha Tunan's eyes. Then, he slowly stood up and said,

"You guys wash your bodies, lest others say that the people of our North City Guard are sloppy."

"Also, go back and tell the people on duty today about this matter."

"In the future, all of you have to behave yourself, don't break the law."

"I usually have to cultivate properly, and if there is anything in the future, listen to my attendant's arrangements."

After saying that, he went to the bedroom to take a storage scroll and left the mansion.

On the street, Uchiha Tunan casually found someone and asked,

"Excuse me, who should I find to report the official corruption?"

"You should look for Minister of Supervision Masaki Fukuda, just northwest of Lord's Mansion."

"There are guards at the door. You will know once you ask them. "

"Thank you very much."

Uchiha Tunan thanked him and turned to walk in the direction of the passers-by.

Soon, he arrived at the residence of the Supervisory Minister and met him.

In the living room, Uchiha Tunan sat on his knees at the table. He looked at Masaki Fukuda opposite him and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Lord Masaki Fukuda."

Masaki Fukuda said in a deep voice,

"You are the newly appointed captain of the northern city's guards, Uchiha Tunan."

"I don't know who you are going to report."

"I want to report that Deputy Captain Shimokawara is too greedy for corruption and is a protective umbrella for the gang members."

"This is his crime. It is the collective release of the subordinates of the northern city guards."

Uchiha Tunan handed the letter of crime he carried to Masaki Fukuda.

When Masaki Fukuda flipped open the letter, he was immediately stunned by the numerous crimes and countless handprints recorded on it.

At this moment, there was only one sentence in Masaki Fukuda's mind.

"The wall fell and everyone pushed."

"This matter is of great importance. If there is no solid evidence, I can only report it to the Lord and let the Lord decide." Masaki Fukuda replied indifferently.

Uchiha Tunan nodded and suddenly thought of something. He took out a scroll of seal from his storage bag and placed it on the table. Then, he spread it out.

Then, he formed a seal and released the contents of the scroll.

"Bang!"

He saw colorful bills stacked in a square shape, presented in front of him.

He, who was experienced and knowledgeable, could roughly tell that there was a total of five million taels here.

"At that time, I was too angry when I saw these crimes."

"In a moment of impulse, I killed him and a few people who were in the same league as him."

"In addition, this is the 500,000 taels that Shota wanted to bribe me with."

"These stolen money should be turned over."

"I wonder if my way of doing things has broken the rules."

Uchiha Tunan said with a smile on his face. He stretched out his hands and pushed the money to the front of Masaki Fukuda.

Masaki Fukuda immediately narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said righteously,

"I understand Lord Tunan's actions very well."

"Don't worry, my lord will definitely not blame Lord Tunan."

"Thank you, Master Masaki Fukuda. I will take my leave now."

"I will order someone to bring the criminal's body over later."

Uchiha Tunan smiled politely and nodded. Then, he paused for a moment. He reached out and patted the money lightly.

"I will report to Master Masaki Fukuda every month about the situation in the northern city guard."

"At that time, I will hand over the criminal and the stolen money to Master Masaki Fukuda."

After saying that, Uchiha Tunan got up and left.

Masaki Fukuda immediately understood what Uchiha Tunan meant.

It meant that he would provide himself with political achievements and money every month.

This action not only brought him great benefits, but also represented the other party to stand on his side.

He immediately felt happy in his heart. He enthusiastically stood up and said,

"Lord Tunan is really noble and bright. I'll send you off."
