Konoha Thief

Chapter 99
After fooling his younger brother away, the bandit boss didn't look for a weapon in his hand, nor went to eat a few more mouthfuls of food to replenish his strength. He just packed up a lot of belongings and wrapped them around his body, and then jumped out of the window and ran towards the woods .

Xia Shu entered the most spacious house of the Bandit Boss, and what he saw was a messy scene, and then his eyes flicked to lock on the open window.

"This trace...doesn't seem to be a fake." Xia Shu's expression was strange, it was too conspicuous, could it be the reason for the suspicion?
This is obviously a ninja thinking. After thinking about it, even the boss of a gang of bandits may not be able to calm down when the crisis is imminent, and even put on a suspicious formation that misleads the pursuers to go astray.

So Xia Shu paused for a while, then turned out the window and chased into the darkness.

The noise gradually moved away, and the hot flame also weakened its radiance. When it got into the jungle, it turned into complete darkness. The sounds of insects and beasts came from all directions, but it only made people feel at ease.

"Huh! It should be safe for the time being." The bandit boss sat on the ground leaning against the tree, gasping for breath.

But then his relaxed face returned to ferocity, and he clenched his fist and slammed it on the ground beside him.

"How did the ninja come? It was when I was about to leave the mountain, hum! It must be the group of cowardly villagers. If there is a chance to rise again, they will definitely kill every dog!" The bandit boss let out a low-pressure roar in his throat, but What special means does the ninja fear, even if it is far away, it can still be heard.

He was afraid of the ninja in his heart, but the bandit boss immediately had some thoughts.

"Ninjas are indeed better than ordinary people." He stroked his beard and pondered secretly, "Maybe we can recruit some ninjas to join the team in the future, but those ninjas claim to be righteous and say they won't accept the missions issued by the thieves who disturb the people. Pooh! Hey, let's see if we can meet some wandering ninjas or rebels in the future."

These mutterings were clearly heard by the young man on the tree, and he couldn't help thinking that the bandit had some ideas, but unfortunately, these ideas were destined not to be realized.

After a short rest, the bandit boss gradually recovered his breathing, and then got up and prepared to flee the Black Moon Valley.

However, at this moment, a force that suddenly descended on his body tugged violently. He only had time to exclaim, and immediately flew backwards without any resistance, and slammed into the tree trunk he was leaning on just now.

"Heh!—" The bandit boss opened his mouth with widened eyes, and a puff of air suddenly spewed out from his mouth.

This sudden suddenness almost made him lose his breath.

Before he could slow down, a swift figure suddenly landed in front of him.

"You—" the bandit boss constricted his pupils and cried out in shock, but stopped abruptly.

Puchi!

The sharp Kunai pulled out, and Xia Shu jumped two steps away, avoiding the bloody arrow shot from his neck, and retracted the black rope with a shake of his left hand.

"There are quite a lot of treasures." Picking up the package dropped by the bandit boss, Xia Shu fumbled around a few times before identifying what was inside, and immediately put it away without hesitation.

Regarding the property seized during the mission, it is explained in the clauses of the sub-section of the Konoha Ninja Code, which probably means this: the village is responsible for distributing the reward for the mission. In addition, the property seized during the mission will be disposed of by the ninja himself, but the captain must note in the mission report bright.

The implicit meaning of this clause is actually obvious enough, or more like a disclaimer from Muye Village, so Natsuki naturally doesn’t have to be polite.

On the way back to the camp, there were obviously more bandits fleeing. After Xia Shu dealt with them smoothly, he probably guessed that the bandits in Black Moon Valley had been completely defeated.

He quickened his pace - the fleeing bandits were not enough to hold him back, but when he stepped into the center of the bandit camp, he was still a step slower.

After a ninja fight against bandits, the camp on the side of the stream still retains its original appearance, with only a few houses damaged.

In contrast, the situation on the other side of the stream was completely opposite. A powerful fireball technique caused the camps and houses there to burn down, and the flames shone on the sparkling stream, making the stream side bright.

The corpses of the bandits fell to the ground in all directions, and the sound of fighting had completely disappeared, which showed that the previous guess was correct.

Xia Shu stepped over a bandit corpse and walked silently. He was not in a hurry to gather with other people at this moment, and cleaning up the remaining bandits was the most important thing.

Sure enough, as he expected, apart from the bandits who resisted and then were suppressed, and the bandits who fled in panic, there were also bandit remnants who hid tremblingly.

These bandits couldn't form a counterattack, let alone a counterattack, they couldn't even do a defense, so that Xia Shu seemed to be playing a game of catching ghosts.

"Xia Shu, come here!" A cheerful call suddenly came.

"Hei Yu?" Xia Shu looked sideways.

"Come on, let's see what I found!" Kuno Heiyu waved excitedly, his flushed smiling face was full of excitement.

"Oh, wait a minute." Xia Shu waved his hand, pressed down his wrist slightly, and then suddenly threw the Kunai in his hand.

Bang!
The familiar sound of a corpse falling to the ground came from a house more than ten steps away, Xia Shu nodded with satisfaction, and walked towards Kuno Heiyu.

"Mr. Aoki? Also, did you see Senior Kosuke?" Xia Shu asked while being dragged by Kuno Heiyu to trot all the way.

"I'm separated from Mr. Aoki." Kuno Heiyu's face was full of joy, and he said while running: "As for Uncle Gujie, I saw him on the stream just now, and now I don't know where he went...here, This is it!"

Out of the corner of Xia Shu's eyes, he was attracted by a kneeling corpse on the road with its throat cut, and felt a little familiar. It seemed to be his handwriting.

At this moment, Kuno Kuroyu pushed open the door of the house in front of him.

"Dengdendenden!" Kuno Heiyu grinned loudly, showing off with his arms akimbo, "Xia Shu looked inside, our harvest this time is really huge!"

"Oh." Xia Shu glanced inside, recognized that the piles were silver taels and copper coins, and nodded indifferently.

"Oh?!" Kuno Heiyu raised his eyebrows, with a look of surprise and disbelief, holding up a handful of copper coins, with an exaggerated expression and exaggerated movements, changing his eyes back and forth between Xia Shu and Qian Cai, "This is money Nah! You just an 'oh'?"

It was really hard for him to accept such an understatement. Could it be that there are people in this world who treat money like dirt?

pat!

Xia Shu threw down the package on his back without changing his face, and the sound of landing was very soft. After all, the ticket is different from metal, it is a soft material.

"I don't think your pile is worth half as much as mine."

When Xia Shu said this, he didn't have the slightest complacency, but when Kuno Heiyu opened the package and glanced at it, when he looked up, he was already full of envy and hatred of "you are showing off".
