Konoha: Doing good deeds can make you stronger

Chapter 182 False and True

"Wait a minute."

Marutani Koko's complaints were mixed with truth and falsehood, Momo felt that the whole person was not well at the end, and quickly stretched out his hand to gesture frantically, and Marutani Koko's mouth stopped.

"You mean, you are very short of money now, right?"

I don't know when, ink's head was already full of sweat.

"Yes, yes!" Marutani Kou became extremely excited once he got involved with money, "I want to ask, Master Mo, do you have any good ways to make money!"

Although the original purpose was to reduce Mo's embrace of him, didn't Marutani Kou ask this question without his own thoughts?

He was really short of money, especially with such a horrible pile of debts.

The Mohist family where Ink lives is a particularly famous family of merchants in the Land of Fire. In terms of business, they naturally inherited the extremely high financial sensitivity and business acumen of their ancestors.

"This..." Mo Mo's face darkened, not knowing how to answer.

"Teach me how to make money! Please! Please!"

"."

Marutani Kou bowed wildly without hesitation, the ink was shocked, and the watering pot in his hand dropped to the ground.

After Marutani Koko left in the morning, Mo Mo sent people to investigate the situation of Marutani Koko in the village, and he was very surprised by the final result.

This is a monster, in every way.

"You, can you look a little strong!"

The well-educated Momo finally couldn't bear it anymore. He broke his usual stable image and couldn't help but start to complain about Marutani Hang.

But the complaints came and went quickly, and the ink reacted instantly in the next second, covering his face in embarrassment.

"Sorry, I'm sorry."

"It's okay, as long as you tell me how to make money."

".Ugh."

Mo Mo suppressed the violent desire to complain again in his heart, and in the end it just turned into a long sigh.

"Marutani Ko-sama, with your current strength, isn't it easy to make money?"

"Oh? How do you say this sentence?" Marutani Kou became interested, took a few steps forward with great interest, and stuck it on the edge of the ink, "Please tell me!"

By asking for advice on how to make money, the distance between the two suddenly became extremely close, and Marutani Kou began to pay attention to Mo Mo's eyes, and if there was any fluctuation, he would be able to notice it immediately.

At this time, not only Marutani Kou was serious, Momo was also staring at Marutani Kou's eyes seriously, and replied half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Protect me, I'll give you money."

"protect you?"

Marutani Koko was a little dazed, and habitually looked into the eyes of the other party, but found that Mo Mo was staring at him very seriously.

"Yes, protect me."

"Hahaha, you must be joking," Mo Mo seemed to have seen through the task that Marutani Kou received, and the situation suddenly became a little complicated. The boy laughed and opened the distance from Mo Mo, and continued to probe, "Mo Young master, you are in Konoha now, you don't need me to protect you at all, do you?"

But Marutani Hang's joke this time did not silence the ink.

"You received the mission, didn't you?"

"Mission! What mission?"

How did he know!

Marutani Ko's heart was startled, but the possibility of Mo Mo defrauding himself cannot be ruled out yet, so Marutani Koko pretended to be surprised.

"Mission? What mission? Are you going to issue the mission, Young Master Mo?"

"Stop pretending," Mo Mo looked helplessly at Marutani Hang's clumsy performance, "Your acting skills are really terrible, and it's impossible for a ninja as powerful as you to be short of money, let alone go out of his way for money. Come find me."

After listening to Momo's words, Marutani Koko's face darkened in an instant.

What's the meaning? !How can it be impossible to be short of money? !Who do you look down on? !
Although he guessed the extent of Marutani Koko's lack of money wrongly, Mo Mo has obviously discovered his strangeness at this time, and if he continues to pretend under such circumstances, he will lose the other party's trust. Marutani Koko hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, Things conceded down.

"You're right, I did receive a mission from the third generation."

Mo Mo smiled, sure enough, his guess was not wrong, the only thing wrong was that he didn't expect that Konoha would entrust this task to a child in his early ten years old.

"Let me guess, is the content of the mission sending me back to the Land of Fire?"

"How do you know?" Ink's speculation was completely correct, and Marutani Kou couldn't help being a little surprised, "So you have received news from home a long time ago? Is the content of the mission true?"

Could it be that everything is just a misunderstanding?
Just when Marutani Kou was distracted, Mo Mo shook his head.

"No, someone is lying to you, Konoha," said Momo, and took out something familiar to Marutani Konoha from his bosom. It was a necklace, which looked exactly the same as the necklace in the scroll. "This is the inheritance of our Mohist family. Only the true Mohist heirs can get it, and only those who own this necklace are qualified to represent the Mohist."

Marutani Koko looked at the style of the necklace closely, and was about to reach out to take a closer look at it, but Mo Mo immediately retracted his hand vigilantly.

"Sorry, I can't give this necklace to anyone, even you."

"Understandable."

Ink's careful performance not only did not reduce Marutani Hang's impression of him, but on the contrary gave him a little more trust.

To be reasonable, such an important item as a token that can prove the identity of the family heir must be kept carefully. Like the Mo family over there, it is outrageous to just hand over the necklace to the village so casually.

"No matter what they say, I hope Konoha will not believe their one-sided words."

"You're right," Ink said the matter was right, and Marutani Hang also thought so, "We can't just listen to one side of this matter, so I will investigate it first, and then make a decision."

Ink let out a long breath of relief.

"Thank you."

"So, what happened, can you tell me everything honestly?"

There are obviously many contradictions between what Mo said now and the conversation in the morning, and it can be seen that he has long known that his family will send a mission request to the village, so all the intelligence information he heard in the morning needs to be updated in time .

Mo Mo knew this, of course, he nodded and spoke slowly.

"The thing is like this."

The Mo family is one of the richest people in the Land of Fire. On the surface, they seem to be prosperous, but there are constant disputes within the family. Many relatives even try to ban Mo’s father and take the biggest cake in the family. Among them, the methods are the most ruthless and have the worst personality. Mo's second uncle was the one, and Mo Tu judged that this accident in the family was probably planned by him.

In fact, Momo left his family and came to Konoha this time because I heard that the situation in Konoha’s village has changed dramatically recently. The relationship between the Uchiha clan and Konoha has eased, and the strength of Konoha, who is united as one, has naturally increased. Almost everyone in the ninja world has seen the bright future of Konoha, and the sharp-eyed Mohists are no exception. They have taken a fancy to Konoha's development potential.

One night, after Mo Mo and his father had a long talk all night, the two agreed and sent Mo Mo as the heir to express the family's sincerity to Konoha.

And in order to complete the transaction as soon as possible, Mo Mo took his cronies with him and set out on the road immediately in the middle of the night, but who would have thought that it was the impromptu decision made at night that allowed Mo Mo to escape unharmed.
