"Understood."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Shimura clan showed a pleased expression and left cheerfully.
"Summon Fugaku to come here."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
Receiving the command, ANBU immediately went to inform Fugaku.
Regarding the incidents at the police department, Fugaku was well aware of them, but the squad leaders below him hadn't reported them, so he treated them as routine public security cases.
In the rest area of Squad Three.
Several squad leaders gathered together.
As one of the leaders, Endo was somewhat nervous as he asked, "Kazuki, we've brought back quite a few people. What should we do next? Convict them right away?"
The police department had the authority to do so.
Interrogation, conviction, then off to prison, followed by writing reports and sending them to the Hokage's office.
However, this approach wouldn't stand up to scrutiny afterwards. Once the Hokage's office investigated, it could lead to significant trouble.
After all, some were just brought in under the pretext of questioning.
"Convict them? What conviction?"
Kazuki smiled slightly and asked strangely, "Have you all forgotten the procedures of the police department?"
"Kazuki! This isn't the time for jokes."
Endo's face darkened involuntarily.
Everyone was waiting for your decision. Instead, you're joking around.
"Yeah, Kazuki, now's not the time for jokes."
"Everyone's waiting for your strategy. We've brought people back, so what's next? Conviction?"
Finding a pretext or a charge to arrest people and have them cooperate with investigations was one thing, but convicting them casually was another issue.
Everyone was anxious precisely because of this.
Once people were brought in, they couldn't just be let go easily.
"I wasn't joking."
Kazuki put away his smile and said seriously, "For those with insufficient evidence or unsubstantiated charges, we release them directly."
"Then what have we been fussing about?"
"Yeah, if that's the case, why arrest them at all?"
After hearing Kazuki's words, everyone couldn't sit still.
"Quiet!!"
Kazuki slammed the table and shouted, "What's all this noise? Since you're willing to believe in me and trust me, then listen to me: for those with insufficient evidence or unsubstantiated charges, release them directly."
"For those whose charges are proven, proceed according to the normal procedures."
"If we're looking for trouble, we should do it step by step. We can't go all out, otherwise it's not seeking trouble, but provocation."
"If I'm not mistaken, some of the Shimura clan members may have already reported to the Hokage's office."
"Of course, we can't pin reasonable charges on all the Shimura clan members and take them down, so..."
"Those who should be released must be released."
"However, since this is targeting, we can't release them casually."
"Everyone, we have the initiative. If we release them today, we can arrest them again tomorrow. The main thing is not to make life difficult for the Shimura clan members."
"Our original intention in gathering here was not to throw all the Shimura clan members into prison."
Proceed with trial for those with proven charges.
For those with unsubstantiated charges or insufficient evidence?
Then release them.
Arrest them again another day or have them cooperate again.
Anyway, just take it slow with them. As long as it doesn't escalate, what can the Hokage's office do over such trivial matters?
The Third Hokage wouldn't keep worrying about such trivial matters.
"By the way, remember to write a report for those who have been released and submit it to the clan leader."
"If the Shimura clan members complain, the clan leader will definitely go to the Hokage's office. This way, it can prevent the clan leader from getting into trouble or being passive and also explain to the Hokage."
Stir up trouble and at the same time shut up the Third Hokage.
Release those who can be released. For those whose charges are proven, the Third Hokage will have nothing to say.
Knowing that Uchiha was deliberately causing trouble, targeting the Shimura clan, as long as it wasn't excessive, the Third Hokage could only turn a blind eye.
"Hahaha, that's it! Let the Shimura clan members know that we Uchiha are not easy to mess with. It's best to create internal conflicts among them."
The anxiety and unease in everyone's hearts were quickly stabilized under Kazuki's leadership, like taking a calming pill, and they all went to prepare.
As for the clan leader who needed to go to the Hokage's office for questioning...
They had already forgotten about it.
The clan leader doesn't do anything, and doesn't let us do anything. Let him take the blame. Is that too much?
Soon, many members of the Shimura clan were either released after being arrested or brought in to cooperate with the investigation.
"..."
Seeing the reports submitted by various squads, Fugaku fell silent. He felt like he was about to become the scapegoat for the new generation.
"Fugaku, the Hokage-sama is waiting for you."
Before Fugaku could recover, ANBU arrived.
Quietly putting away the documents on his desk, Fugaku followed the ANBU ninja to the Hokage's office.
"Fugaku, I heard that your police department brought back quite a few Shimura clan members today?"
Upon arriving at the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage wasted no time and asked directly.
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
Regardless of whether it was Uchiha Fugaku's intention, at this point, he could only tough it out:
"I learned about this matter from the reports submitted by various squads. However, before I came to the Hokage's office, most of these people had already been released. Those remaining have charges against them that have been proven and need to go through the proper procedures for trial."
"If Hokage-sama feels it unnecessary, I can immediately return and have our people release them."
"Already released?"
The Third Hokage was momentarily surprised.
"Yes, it's good they were released. Although it involves public security cases, randomly arresting people without evidence can have a significant impact and discredit the police department. As for those with proven charges, we will follow the procedures directly."
This was the responsibility of the police department, and they had the right to do so.
Of course, the Third Hokage could have ordered the police department to release them, but he didn't need to do so. Otherwise, it might attract some idle gossip.
If the charges were proven, they would write up the case file and report, and he could look it over later.
Making a big show of making the police department release people?
The Third Hokage wasn't the caretaker of the Shimura clan. He had already given them enough face by taking this step.
"Fugaku, right now the village's priority is to gain forgiveness from Daimyo and handle the assassination incident well. I believe you understand what I mean, right?"
Some necessary admonition was certainly necessary.
The Third Hokage didn't want any unnecessary trouble at this critical moment.
"I will be careful, Hokage-sama. Please rest assured, you can completely trust Uchiha."
After expressing his loyalty, Fugaku returned to the police department as if nothing had happened, which relieved many squad leaders who were worried that the clan leader would question them.
In his heart, he silently praised Kazuki and his growing trust in him.
Kazuki said there wouldn't be a problem, and sure enough, nothing unexpected happened, nor did the clan leader blame them.
It was as if nothing had happened.
Many members of the Shimura clan were released, but the head of the Shimura clan couldn't be happy.
Because those with confirmed charges were still sitting in the police department, especially the two Jonin from the clans, whose charges included attacking the police department commander in front of everyone.
As long as the police department kept a tight grip, these two Shimura Jonin wouldn't escape going to Konoha Prison for a while.
