Chapter 29 Lies
"Problem? What's the problem?"

Shinnosuke looked puzzled, but a smile appeared in Orochimaru's eyes.

interesting.

Minato nodded, and said, "I also think that Mr. Ito's words are full of loopholes."

"Really? Mr. Mo Feng, Mr. Shuimen, I don't know where the loopholes you mentioned are?"

Orochimaru looked at the two of them and said in a low voice.

Mo Feng and Shuimen looked at each other, and then Mo Feng said: "There is a long distance between Beijian Town and Yili Village, about three days' journey, and there is no place to stop to replenish supplies, only forests and wastelands. Mr. Ito and his companions will go back together, and they will probably not use the means of walking. Therefore, they must hire a carriage or other means of transportation."

"Furthermore, if they came to sell things, then such a distance, and with the goods, it is absolutely impossible to walk here. Therefore, we can be sure that if what Mr. Ito said is true, then , They should have at least one carriage when they set off from Beijian Town, or in other words, a convoy pulling goods."

"What does that mean?" Shinnosuke wondered.

Shuimen followed Mo Feng's words and explained: "If it is a carriage or a convoy, then they must bring the carriage or convoy back to the original town. Because as far as I know, there is no hired carriage between Beijian Town and Yili Village. chain stores."

Shinnosuke still looked puzzled, and said, "What's the matter?"

"Asuke, because of the war a few years ago, the transportation is not convenient now, so merchants generally don't do single orders when doing this kind of business. Because the toll is a big cost. Hiring a horse-drawn carriage on the road, the price that needs to be paid is not high. Low. Generally speaking, if you bring something from Kitami Town to sell in Yili Village, you will bring the good stuff from Yili Village back to Kitami Town to sell another batch, so that you can earn more money. And it will not be wasted The right to use the carriage when returning."

"Then maybe they couldn't find suitable goods, or they just hired a carriage, so wouldn't the cost be lower?" Shinnosuke said.

"This possibility does not exist. But there are doubts." Mo Feng said in a low voice.

"There are still doubts?"

Shinnosuke felt that his brain was not enough.

"Assuming that they hired a convoy, then they must also hire someone to drive the carriage, otherwise two people alone will not be enough. In other words, there is more than a third person. If there is such a person, then Ito Mister’s companion, Seto, is more troublesome if he wants to do it, and even more people need to be removed.”

"And to collude with these people to murder Mr. Ito, the price to pay is not low. In this way, the murder business is not worthwhile. Mr. Ito did not mention other people, so this possibility can be ruled out for the time being."

"Assume again that if there is only one carriage, then there are only two of them. If two people drive a carriage, it must be that one is tired and the other is driving. In this way, there are too many opportunities to do it. In the carriage The person who stabbed the outside with a knife is straightforward, and there is no need to poison the food at all."

"Finally, it is also a common doubt in the above two situations. The three-day journey is not long or short. Will the two big men choose to cook in the forest by themselves or bring some dry food to deal with it? If it is dry food , Then why did Mr. Ito say that he put medicine in the meal?"

"Mr. Ito ran back quickly after finding out that Seto had given the medicine. So, did they break up closer to Yili Village? Did he run back? Or did he come back in a carriage? If it was a carriage, why didn't he just drive it away?" Back to Kitami Town? Seto without a carriage will never be able to keep up with him. If not for a carriage, how could he outrun Seto with a carriage?"

"This……"

Shinnosuke didn't know how to answer Mo Feng for a while.

In the short conversation just now, there are so many questions?
Shinnosuke said that he didn't think of any of them.

Minato continued: "One more thing, this Mr. Ito is tall and strong, and his fighting power should not be weak among ordinary people. Why are you afraid of an ordinary person to such an extent? He even called ninjas to protect him. You know The remuneration for C-level tasks is quite a lot, enough for an ordinary person to spend about half a year. If it is not a last resort, how can a businessman make such a sacrifice."

"Ahh! Listening to what you said, I have a big head. According to what you said, isn't this Mr. Ito not telling the truth?" Shinnosuke said with some collapse.

Both Mo Feng and Shuimen nodded silently.

This is also the doubt they had just after listening to Ito Kinzao's words.

A client who is full of lies, what on earth is he trying to do?
The content of this mission is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface.

"Hehe, Mr. Mo Feng, Mr. Shuimen, your observation skills are really sharp."

Orochimaru chuckled, and couldn't help showing appreciation in his eyes.

These doubts are naturally not difficult for the experienced Orochimaru to see.

But the two teenagers in front of them can see it, which is enough to show their keen observation skills.

As long as a ninja's observation is sharp enough, many casualties can be avoided.

"Uncle Orochimaru, did you see that too?" Shinnosuke asked.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if everyone saw it, but I didn't see it?

Orochimaru ignored Shinnosuke's question, but said: "These problems do exist. But the mission is also real. Our mission is to protect Ito and return to Kitami Town. This is clear. We just need to complete it. That's it. Other issues are not important."

"But in this way, there will be many unknown variables." Mo Feng said in a low voice.

"Hehe, as a ninja, you are faced with variables all the time. You have to learn to overcome these variables. Remember, there are only two situations in which a ninja can give up a mission. One is that the mission content and entrusted content have cross-level difficulty, and the other is One is death!"

Suddenly, Mo Feng had a feeling that he was in the ninja world and couldn't help himself.

"Mr. Ito is full of lies. I'm afraid the content of the mission will change a lot." Minato said.

"Don't care about his changes! We will definitely complete the mission smoothly!"

Shinnosuke doesn't care about the client, he just wants to complete the task to prove himself now.

Orochimaru looked at Minato and said, "Minato-kun, you are the oldest, and you will lead the team tomorrow."

"Yes! Lord Orochimaru."

"Hehe, tomorrow, maybe it will be very interesting."

Orochimaru sneered, and there was a hint of playfulness in the golden pupils.
