Naruto went downstairs.
Sarutobi was standing on the rooftop with a gloomy face.
He just took photos of the graduates of the fourth class and sent them the ninja certificate, then he received the tragic news of the battle between the police force and the suspected spy, resulting in three dead and fourteen seriously injured civilians.
Causing such a large number of casualties, the police force can't absolve themselves from the blame.
But who is responsible for this spy being able to sneak into the Wood Leaf village?
The police force is responsible for maintaining the order of the village, but the gate of the village is guarded by other ninjas, and the barrier around the village is managed by Naruto's Anbu. Whether the spy sneaked in from the gate or from the barrier, the responsibility is on Sarutobi!
However, in order to protect Naruto's face, no one will be stupid enough to expose these things. In the end, Uchiha has to take the responsibility for this heavy casualty incident.
It's really the fourth aunt!
"Naruto -sama!"
Suddenly, an Anbu appeared behind Sarutobi and knelt on one knee, "The spy has been caught by Aburame Shikuro and Uchiha Tomiyama, and the torture department has begun to act."
"Yes."
Sarutobi nodded and said solemnly, "Let Inoichi also assist in the investigation, be sure to find out his origin!"
"Yes!"
After the Anbu responded, he disappeared directly.
… …
After the Anbu took the spy away, the rest of the injured were also taken over by the Anbu. Cold Wind, Waterstop, and Yui were taken away by Aburame Shikuro.
"Well, that's it for today, remember to gather at 7 o 'clock tomorrow morning, don't be late!" Aburame Shikuro said.
"Got it."
After the three of them responded, Cold Wind and Waterstop went all the way.
"Waterstop, there are so many casualties, the people in the village will definitely blame the police force, your clan is really too difficult." Cold Wind said with emotion, he could even imagine the attitude of the villagers towards the police force after today.
"This matter is indeed the responsibility of the police force."
Waterstop nodded, but he couldn't help but refute, "But the spy can sneak into the village, it's definitely not the police force's responsibility, this incident, the police force shouldn't take the main responsibility!"
After all, if the spy couldn't get in, nothing would happen.
"Waterstop, I don't think it's important how the spy got in. What's important is that you have to do a crisis PR!" Cold Wind suggested with a smile.
"What public relations?"
Waterstop couldn't keep up with Cold Wind's train of thought. They were just talking about responsibility. How did they end up talking about public relations?
"Crisis PR."
Cold Wind said, "It means that when something unexpected happens, you will immediately release the news … Well, announce the cause and effect of the incident to the villagers and take all the blame on yourself. Then, you will win the trust and support of the villagers!"
Waterstop blinked twice and said, "You mean … to take the initiative to take all the responsibility for this matter?"
Cold Wind nodded. "That's right! Shirking responsibility would only make the villagers dislike the police force. Only a police force that dared to take responsibility would be accepted by the villagers. Also, when doing public relations, you must make it clear that all the losses will be paid by the police force. Your attitude must be sincere. It would be best if you shed a few tears. It would be perfect if you couldn't break down and cry. "
Waterstop looked at Cold Wind in a daze. After a while, he said, "This … Uh, Cold Wind, are you serious?"
Cold Wind said, "Do I look like I'm joking?"
Waterstop looked at him for a while. He didn't look like he was, so he said, "I will pass on your suggestion to the patriarch …"
"Don't, don't, don't."
Cold Wind hurriedly stopped him. "This is a private matter between us. Don't use my name to do things."
"I understand. I won't mention your name." Waterstop didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I'll go first."
Cold Wind waved and went home to surf.
…
On the way home, Waterstop kept thinking about the feasibility of crisis public relations. At first, he felt that it was unreliable. Shouldering all the responsibilities would only make the villagers completely disappointed in the police force and even the Uchiha clan.
But as he thought about it, he felt that it was a very good idea. As long as the villagers saw the spirit of the police force taking responsibility, it could restore the villagers' confidence in the police force to a certain extent!
Unknowingly, Waterstop arrived at the residence of the Uchiha clan's patriarch, Uchiha Tian.
As the strongest genius of the Uchiha clan, Waterstop's name had already spread throughout the entire Uchiha clan. As soon as he reached the door, someone respectfully welcomed him in.
"Is the patriarch in?" Waterstop asked the person leading the way.
"The patriarch is in a meeting with the three elders. I'm afraid now …" The person leading the way was a little embarrassed.
Waterstop smiled. "Then I'll wait."
He waited for more than an hour.
At two o 'clock in the afternoon, the three Uchiha elders left with gloomy faces.
After the meeting, patriarch Uchiha Tian was a little tired. But when he learned of Waterstop's arrival, he still received the family's number one genius at once.
"Waterstop, why are you looking for me?"
Uchiha Tian smiled.
He was fifty-five years old this year. His hair was gray and his face was full of wrinkles.
"It's about today's spy incident!" Waterstop went straight to the point and directly told him about the crisis public relations.
Uchiha Tian's face darkened when he heard about shouldering all the responsibilities. He secretly scolded himself for being so naive as to agree to let Waterstop team up with Naruto's faction's Yui and Moonlight Cold Wind. How long had it been since then and Waterstop was already on Naruto's side?
But he patiently listened to the end. After pondering for a while, he suddenly became excited and his eyes lit up.
"Waterstop, I was wrong … cough, I think your idea is very good!!"
Uchiha Tian had a meeting with the three elders before to discuss this matter. But in the discussion, it was either shirking responsibility or abandoning the army to protect the general. For example, he wanted to fire a few unimportant people from the police force to block the villagers' mouths. He even wanted to flip the table and pull Sarutobi along with him. After all, the responsibility of the spy sneaking into the village belongs to Naruto!
But Waterstop's crisis public relations made Uchiha Tian see another path!
"Waterstop, you really are the number one genius of our family!!"
Uchiha Tian was very excited. If Waterstop wasn't too young, he would want Waterstop to be the next patriarch of the Uchiha Family!
"Patriarch, in fact …"
Seeing Uchiha Tian so excited, Waterstop felt a little guilty. After all, this idea wasn't his, but thinking of Cold Wind's words, he smiled bitterly and said, "Patriarch, I will take my leave first."
Uchiha Tian smiled and said: "Waterstop, continue to work hard! I look forward to your future very much!! "
After Waterstop left, Uchiha Tian immediately called back the three elders who had just left.
"Patriarch, you called us back again, is there a change in that matter?"
One of the elders, Uchiha Shan Yue, asked with a dignified face.
"There is a change, but it's a good thing."
Uchiha Tian didn't hide it and directly talked about the crisis public relations.
The three elders were all smart people. After thinking carefully, they realized the benefits of the crisis public relations for the family.
If they followed their previous plan, shirking responsibility and abandoning the army to protect the general, I am afraid that at least 90% of the people in the village will be disappointed with them. But if the crisis public relations is handled well, it may be able to restore the confidence of half of the villagers!
The four elders discussed and decided to hold a crisis public relations meeting tomorrow!
