Chapter 220 If you want to impose a crime, why bother?

"Oops."

Several members of the branch family, including Neji, felt a "thump" in their hearts.

In the past, where would they have dared to criticize the clan family in a place like this?

However, too many things have happened recently, which gave them some extravagant hopes.

"Idiots, you actually dare to criticize the clan, don't you know the consequences?"

The elder was already extremely dissatisfied with the branch family and Hyuga Hinata, and now that he saw a few outstanding ones, he naturally became angry.

So, under everyone's gaze, the Great Elder strode forward directly and dropped his raised palm heavily.

Bang! Bang! Bang!!

The force of these three slaps was unreserved, and the sound of the slaps even resounded throughout the entire conference room.

"...I'm sorry, it's our fault."

After hesitating for a moment, the two branch members lowered their heads, but Neji's expression on the side remained uncertain.

Noticing Neci's stubbornness, the elder's anger had not yet dissipated and he scolded: "Asshole, you still dare to be unconvinced?!"

The two branch members beside him quickly pulled at the corners of his clothes.

Good people don't fight with old dogs.

Neji came back to his senses and looked at the great elder with a flash of coldness in his eyes. He was quickly suppressed and hidden, and he lowered his head like the two of them.

"Feel sorry."

Although the coldness passed away in a flash, the great elder still noticed something strange about Ningji.

"Damn it! Who do you think you are and how dare you show murderous intent towards me?!"

The frightened and angry elder directly raised his hands to form a seal, and activated the "Caged Bird Curse Seal" directed at Neji.

"ban!!"

"Ahhhh!!"

As the Caged Bird Curse Seal was activated, Neji covered his head and fell to the ground, rolling back and forth in pain and wailing and screaming.

His wailing resounded throughout the conference room, and the members of the Hyuga branch stood up one after another and looked at Neji and the elder with strange eyes.

Several members of the branch family looked at each other, but soon shook their heads in a subtle way.

Coincidentally, Hizashi who heard the sound also hurried over.

When he saw Neji, who was being tortured by the caged bird and moaning in pain.

Hizashi suppressed the anger in his heart, turned to the elder and said, "Elder, please let him go. He is still a child and cannot withstand the destruction of the curse seal!"

But the great elder just snorted coldly, showing no mercy at all.

"call!"

Hizashi took a deep breath with his face flushed, and whispered to Neji: "Ningji, have you forgotten what I said to you? We can talk about anything when we get back!"

Neji seemed not to have heard his father's advice.

No matter how much the Great Elder tried to activate the 'Caged Bird Curse Seal', even if he was lying on the ground in a state of embarrassment and wailing in pain, he was extremely stubborn and refused to ask for mercy.

The expression of the great elder also changed, and there was actually some murderous intention in his heart.

"court death!"

Hinata Hinata is protected by the clan leader Hinata Hinata, and there is no useful evidence to catch her, so no matter how dissatisfied the elder is with her, there is nothing he can do.

But now Hyuga Neji is an ordinary member of the branch family. Who gave him the courage to challenge the authority of the clan?!

Hinata Hinata is really shaking the authority of the clan!

Thinking of this, the great elder suddenly felt cruel in his heart and was ready to directly activate the curse seal to kill Neji.

But just then.

"Enough!"

A loud shout interrupted the great elder's movements.

Rizu's face was so gloomy that he could drip water: "What's the point of making a noise? Do you want the two guests to laugh?"

The looks in the eyes of Mito Kadoyan and Koharu who were sleeping behind him were a bit weird.

"It's really interesting."

They didn't expect that the Hyuga clan would be in such chaos.

Not only did they invite the two Konoha advisors to attend the family meeting.

Judging from the appearance of the clan elder just now, if it were not for the obstruction and remonstrance of Hyuga Hizashi, the clan leader, he would probably still want to kill Hyuga Neji in front of all the branch clans.

While the two felt very ridiculous, they also remembered the rumors they heard not long ago.

The Hyuga branch, represented by Hyuga Hinata, seems to be secretly preparing to resist the rule of the Zong family. The conflict between the two parties is constantly escalating, and has reached the point where it is difficult to tolerate water and fire.

Mito Kadoyan and the other two did not pay much attention to this "rumor" at first.

After all, all members of the Hyuga clan are bound by the Caged Bird Seal.

And under the curse that controls their life and death, the resistance of the separated families will only appear weak and funny.

However, now I see this ridiculous scene in front of me...

"Isn't that rumor true?"

Mito Kadoyan and Koharu, who were sleeping together, looked at each other at the same time, and both saw the shock and confusion in each other's eyes.

The great elder was interrupted by Rizu who suddenly came in, and then he realized that the branch families had gathered here unknowingly.

Being stared at by many branch families, the great elder actually felt a chill.

In addition, the two consultants were still watching, and he was neither advancing nor retreating at the same time, and the expression on his face became gloomy and uncertain.

Hizashi, who noticed this, quickly said: "Sir, the bastard is still young and not sensible. I will definitely teach him a lesson when I go back."

Seeing Hizashi walking up the steps, the great elder secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He's just a brat who can't make waves. What really needs to be solved is that little girl Hinata Hinata.

Thinking of this, the murderous intention in the elder's heart receded slightly, but he still straightened his back and shouted loudly: "Hyuga Neji disobeys the rebels. I intend to impose a prison sentence on the first offender!"

"If you do it again, you will be punished according to the clan rules and you will be cursed and killed!"

Hearing this, Hizashi breathed a sigh of relief.

He quickly picked up Neji from the ground and walked to the corner step by step.

"You're being too reckless today!"

Neji lowered his head and couldn't see his expression, silently patting the dust on his body.

Seeing this, Hizashi could only sigh and comforted in a low voice: "Don't worry, after a while, I will go to the clan leader to plead for mercy from your imprisonment. I believe the clan leader will not make it too difficult for us."

Neji's movements paused.

"Father."

He slowly raised his head and looked at Hizashi expressionlessly: "Do you hate caged birds?"

Hizashi was stunned for a moment: "You..."

"No, father, you probably don't hate caged birds."

Before Hizashi could finish his words, Neci said to himself: "Even if you become a caged bird, you can still become a housekeeper."

Looking at Ningci in front of him, Hizashi suddenly had an unpleasant premonition.

Hizashi frowned and said in confusion: "Neji, what do you want to say?"

"nothing."

Neji said calmly: "I have tried hard, but I still can't do it in the end."

Hearing this, Hizashi breathed a sigh of relief: "It doesn't matter. Only when you are alive can you have hope. Don't do such stupid things in the future."

After that, he leaned close to Ningji's ear and reminded in a low voice: "With the clan leader and I dealing with the clan and the branch clan, I believe it will get better one day."

Hizashi thought that Neji meant that he had realized how powerless he was in resisting the clan.

But little did he know that that was not what he really meant.

But Neji didn't say much, he just smiled noncommittally.

"I hope so."

Unfortunately, the destruction of the Caged Bird Seal has shattered the last hope in my heart and my last attachment to my family.

The horror of being controlled by those guys over life and death, and the humiliation of being imprisoned in a birdcage.

I don't want to wait anymore.

I am not willing to be a household bird like my father.

Even if I am destined to die, I will die on the road to pursuing freedom.

Instead of dying in humiliation at the hands of an incompetent and pedantic old man like those who separated.

Click!

"Sorry, it seems I'm late."

As the door to the conference room was pushed open again, Hinata walked in slowly with a smile on her face.

The moment she entered the conference room, she became the focus of everyone in the hall.

"Ahem!"

Seeing everyone's eyes turning away from him, the great elder sitting on the chair coughed twice in dissatisfaction.

However, thinking of the scene of her begging for mercy a while later, the elder was in a good mood and did not embarrass Hinata too much.

"Since you know you're late, why don't you hurry up and find a place to sit down?"

Hinata understood that this family meeting was mostly for her, so she looked at Hiashi sitting at the top.

Sensing his daughter's gaze, Rizu shook his head imperceptibly, saying that he didn't know either.

"Heh, interesting."

Hinata smiled nonchalantly and sat next to Neji and Hizashi.

At this time, Rizu turned his head and asked proactively: "Great Elder, why did you invite us to attend the clan meeting?"

So everyone subconsciously looked at the great elder, even Xiaochun and the two who were sleeping there were no exception.

Not only Rizu, who is the clan leader, but also the two of them.

It is unclear why the clan elder invited them to attend the Hyuga clan meeting.

"Then, let me explain it to everyone."

The great elder glanced at the people below and said with a serious expression: "The reason why we proposed to hold today's family meeting is because we discovered something that might endanger the safety of the village, so we had to invite two consultants to attend this meeting.

, I hope we can discuss a solution.”

The great elder's words were like a piece of gravel thrown into a pond, immediately causing ripples in the calm conference room.

"Will it endanger the safety of the village?"

Mito Menyan frowned: "What could endanger the village?"

Facing the noise of the people below and the doubts of the advisors, the elder deliberately glanced at Hinata Hinata, then cleared his throat and said with a solemn expression: "Of course it's about the guy who invaded Hinata not long ago."

"Not long ago, we discovered that someone had deliberately provided information about the intruder to the Zong family, and then spread untrue rumors in the branch family."

After a deliberate pause, the Great Elder continued: "Please ask insiders to report the specific information."

After saying that, Hinata Tokuma, who had always been standing behind him, stood up and instantly attracted the strange eyes of everyone in the branch family.

However, Hyuga Tokuma didn't care and said to himself: "As far as I know, the intruder who also has the Byakugan did not plant the caged bird. His purpose was to seize Miss Sparkle's eyes and call them pure.

's eyes rolled."

"But the child who was with the intruder turned out to be a blind man without eyes. As a result, vicious rumors arose among the separated families that one could get rid of the caged bird by poaching out the white eyes of the clan..."

The great elder took over the words and said: "Yes, this is a rumor. Even if you change your eyes, you can't get rid of the caged bird."

"But the most important thing is that the people who led the way and repelled the intruders before were Hyuga Neji and Hyuga Hinata from the branch family!"

His tone dropped, and he stared at Neci and Hinata and asked: "This matter is related to the intruder with the Byakugan, and it is also related to the peace and safety of the village, so I need you to give it to me, to the two advisors, and

Everyone present needs an explanation!”

"Who are the intruders, where do they come from, and what is their purpose of eye-catching... Or, in other words, did you plan this incident?!"

After hearing the great elder's indignant speech, the atmosphere in the conference room gradually became more subtle.

Everyone's eyes turned to Hinata, Hinata and Neji.

Mito Monohan and Koharu, who had gone to bed, also looked at Hinata, very curious about how this little girl from a separate family would respond to the censure of the elder.

The elder who felt that he had taken control of the situation also raised the corner of his mouth, stared at Hinata Hinata and smiled secretly: "Humph, you brainless violent little girl, today I am going to let you see what rules and power are.

strength."

He knew very well that it was impossible to directly label this little girl as a mole based on one-sided speculations and accusations.

But it doesn't matter. As long as she can't explain it perfectly, she will be caught and her authority in the branch family will plummet.

This is "forcing him to testify against himself".

"My lord, if you want to impose a crime, there is no reason to hesitate."

Hinata's smile remained unchanged as she said, "The reason why Brother Ningji led him to the clan's territory was not only to ensure his own safety, but also to prevent intruders from being frightened and escaping."

"Your sophistry is meaningless and will not satisfy everyone present."

The great elder smiled and said, "You should honestly admit your collusion with the invaders. As long as you are willing to sincerely repent, the village and family will give you a chance."

Facing the great elder's aggressive questioning and everyone's doubtful and probing eyes, Hinata stood up slowly.

The great elder smiled confidently and asked: "Hinata Hinata, do you still want to explain?"

"Both consultants are here. If you have any questions, you can ask them to answer them!"

Hizashi, who was lying low at the side, blinked at Hinata repeatedly, almost changing from a hint to an explicit statement. The look on his face was so eager that he almost opened his mouth to persuade her.

Hinata smiled gently at him as usual.

But when she turned her head again and looked at the Great Elder, the corner of her mouth turned up in a playful manner.

And the great elder who was being stared at suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

But in an instant, he suppressed this ominous feeling.

Because when he thought about it, even if Hinata Hinata had the courage, she would not dare to do anything disrespectful to him as a clan member in front of the two advisors.

"What...what do you want to do?"

"Sure enough, I can't explain the truth to you people."

The gentle smile on Hinata's face gradually dissipated, she shook her head and said in a pitiful tone: "You are all like selfish children, always expecting everything to go as you want, and pretending to be innocent without shame."

The moment he finished speaking, no one had time to react.

Sa!!

Hinata Hinata's body swayed, and at an almost ghostly speed, she suddenly pounced directly in front of the three clan elders.

"What do you want to do?!"

Looking at Hinata Tokuma who was blocking her, Hinata's body turned slightly.

He very nimbly walked around Tokuma, holding down the heads of the two clan elders with both hands. At the same time, the knee of his right leg slammed into the chin of the middle elder.

Bang bang bang!!!

Three crisp sounds came almost at the same time, and three big heads hit each other directly.
