Inoichi Yamanaka was in high spirits after the good news. Humming a little tune, he washed off the scent of alcohol and pushed his half-resisting wife into the room. "Nobuko... I have some good news to share with you," he whispered. The warmth of his breath on Nobuko Yamanaka's earlobe was particularly alluring.
Nobuko Yamanaka shrunk her neck to dodge while listening to Inoichi Yamanaka's breathy whispers in her ear, talking about some matters regarding the Public Security Division... "...Jianxiong became the head of the Public Security Division, Yatsuko and Zuodao are the vice-heads, and the captain of one of the three squads—the Criminal Investigation and Interrogation Squad—is Yugito..."
Inoichi Yamanaka couldn't hide the joy in his tone. The development of the entire situation was climbing along the main branches that Ino had predicted—especially the fact that the Criminal Investigation and Interrogation Squad, one of the three squads, would inevitably belong to the Yamanaka Clan was spot on. As the clan head, Inoichi Yamanaka was truly happy for the prosperity and progress of his family.
"Mhm, that really is good news..."
They shared an intimate moment.
Mrs. Yamanaka catered to Inoichi Yamanaka. After a moment, Mrs. Yamanaka mentioned the "light," and Inoichi casually pulled out a Kunai.
Clack!
The ring at the end of the Kunai's handle lightly struck the light switch, and the bedroom instantly fell into darkness.
Thud—
Clatter!
The "thud" was the sound of the Kunai falling, its tip landing on the floor.
The "clatter" was the sound of the Kunai tilting over and lying on the floor.
"Mmm..."
...It wasn't until the next morning that Ino saw Inoichi Yamanaka. The little girl had a knowing look on her face: "Dad, did you go drinking with Uncle Shikaku again yesterday?" Inoichi Yamanaka laughed "haha" and let Ino sit beside him. "Our Princess Ino really is as wise as a god! There was something happy yesterday, so we went to the Yakiniku Bar together..."
Inoichi Yamanaka told Ino about the results of "dividing the Public Security Division" again. Ino listened very seriously. When Inoichi Yamanaka finished speaking, Ino said: "Dad."
"Mhm, what do you want to say?"
"This matter might be over—but it shouldn't just pass like this. For an incident like this, where we were in the middle of it and experienced the whole process, whether it's the Uchiha, Konoha, or ourselves, it's something worth discussing, analyzing, and digging deep into—to every member of the clan, this is an invisible wealth!"
"Ino, do you have some ideas?" Inoichi Yamanaka was awakened by Ino's words. He seemed to have some thoughts, but they weren't concrete.
Ino said: "Regarding the beginning and end of this Uchiha Coup Incident, it should be written into a complete set of materials for the clansmen—at least the Ninjas—to study. We need to clear up the logical and interpersonal relationships piece by piece, clarify how every result was formed, what the triggers were, why those triggers were produced, and what role each clan played in it..."
"..."
Inoichi Yamanaka was greatly shocked. What Ino said was very similar to intelligence analysis, but it sounded completely different—nonetheless, it was undoubtedly a very powerful thing.
Inoichi Yamanaka asked: "But what is the significance of this for the clansmen and the family?"
"Significance—naturally, it's to make the Ninjas of the Yamanaka Clan invincible when participating in the Village's missions and work. To put it grandly, it's to make the Yamanaka Clan stand in an invincible position within the Village. Properly and correctly analyzing the situation, placing oneself in a superior position, and choosing a safe spot—that is the way to stay relevant forever."
Analyzing and learning from specific cases is essentially learning the mindset of analyzing, recognizing, and solving problems.
Ino patted her chest and said: "Leave this matter to me. I will produce the relevant teaching materials—Dad, you have to assist me. You know the specific details better than I do."
Inoichi Yamanaka said: "Mhm, okay, of course."
After eating breakfast, Inoichi Yamanaka remembered he had forgotten one thing. He thought to himself: "It's all Shikaku's fault; I should have said this yesterday." He then hurriedly ordered Nana to go and notify Yamanaka Yatsuko and Yamanaka Yugito to come over. Before long, Yamanaka Yatsuko and Yamanaka Yugito arrived and bowed: "Greetings, Clan Head. Greetings, Princess Ino."
"I called you here, and I'm sure you know why... Regarding the work of the Public Security Division, it should be relatively easy for Yatsuko to start..."
..."Yatsuko, you must familiarize yourself with the archival work as soon as possible and establish a complete mechanism for archives and personnel, clearing up various relationships as much as possible. Analyze and build an interpersonal relationship database, making it as rich as possible..."
"Yugito, your work is a bit more troublesome. You have the Uchiha under you... try to do your job well..." Inoichi Yamanaka glanced at Ino. "Towards the Uchiha, at least our clan cannot target them—those who can stay, try to let them stay. These Uchiha have impressive abilities; we must show the clan's magnanimity!"
"Understood!"
"The Uchiha lost the Public Security Division, so they will certainly feel dissatisfied. Therefore, when you carry out your work, try to be patient..."
Inoichi Yamanaka briefed them for quite a while. After he finished explaining everything that needed to be said, he sent the two of them off to take up their posts.
Inoichi Yamanaka picked up Ino and kissed his daughter. "Alright, Dad is going to work too. Now that the tense atmosphere is gone, when it's time to go out, you should walk around more... After all, this is our Konoha; you should get familiar with it."
"I know, Dad, you're so annoying!"
Ino gave Inoichi Yamanaka a disdainful look, her heart filled with complaints: "Even if I'm to be kissed, it should be by a cute young lady. Dad, your beard is prickly..."
Well... later she would trick Nana and Kana. This kind of psychological damage couldn't be recovered without two sweet kisses!
As for going shopping, she'd pass—
She had just volunteered to compile an analysis of the current events they had just experienced as a teaching material for the clansmen. This was much more interesting than going for a walk.
This matter was still fresh. Both Nana and Kana had first-hand information. Under Ino's casual guidance, they quickly completed a simple statement of the events. Next, they began analyzing under Ino's direction—to be precise, Ino analyzed the cases while they were responsible for recording and later polishing them.
Finally, a set of discourse materials containing three parts—"Statement of Events," "Background Review," and "Case Analysis"—was formed.
By evening, the materials reached Inoichi Yamanaka's hands. He spent the entire night flipping through and reading them repeatedly. He lay in bed until the middle of the night before finally falling asleep.
The pages were full of profound insights and penetrating analysis, like a whip that lashed the entire incident until it was bloody—
Revealing skin, blood, flesh, and bone...
