Chapter 18: Ch.18 Skipping Stones
"I understand." Uchiha Shinji took out his key to open the door. Before entering his house, he said to Iruka, "Thank you for helping me with the travel pass this morning."
Iruka was momentarily stunned, then said, "No need to thank me."
Shinji nodded, entered the house, and closed the door.
Lying on his bed, he finally relaxed a bit.
Since Haku hadn't been arrested, it meant that last night's events hadn't been exposed.
So Hidden Mist is pressuring the village for Haku...
He chuckled to himself.
Initially, he had some uncertainty about who Haku was working for, but with Hidden Mist's actions today, he was now certain—Haku was indeed a spy Hidden Mist had planted in the Hidden Leaf.
Hidden Mist's actions today:
On the surface, they were putting pressure on the Hidden Leaf, but secretly, they were actually protecting Haku.
The logic behind it was quite clear.
