The Adventurous Gamer Ninja - Daichi Hekima [Vol. 02]

Chapter 251 - Meeting Sai.

Daichi's plan.

"Hmm... I might have an idea as to how it got here. Sensei with your permission, I'd like to execute a plan I have in mind."

Kakashi glanced at his client and then turned his attention back to his student. "Let's hear it."

"Right now we don't know for certain if the enemy is among us. For all we know an outside attacker found out that you were staying here in this specific room through some special reconnaissance method." Daichi reasoned and Ryoma nodded as he realized the lack of evidence pointing to someone inside.

Ryoma suddenly thought of something. 'If the attacker is someone from outside then is it possible that they poisoned all the tubs in the 7 suits just to get to me?' He immediately disregarded that line of thought. 'No. That's inefficient and it might also put the other parties in danger. No ninja worth their salt would proceed with such careless planning.'

At that moment Kakashi spoke. "Daichi, we can't just rule out the possibility that there aren't any enemies among the people inside this building. It could be an accomplice or maybe even the culprit."

"Yes. I agree, sensei. It's why we need to know for sure who's involved and who's not." Daichi and his teacher turned to the mediator.

Ryoma sighed as he knew what the two might be thinking. "If you two are suggesting an interrogation then please remember that despite being civilians those two have great wealth and lots of connections. I'm afraid I can't authorize that."

Kakashi nodded as he understood the precarious situation they were in. "I had a feeling you'd say that." Daichi sighed but had a small smile on his face. "What if we force their hand? Give them a shot at their target one more time?"

"You're suggesting we use Ryoma here as bait?" Kakashi raised an eyebrow as he looked at his student.

Daichi nodded and turned to their client. "If you're up for it sir."

Ryoma agreed after thinking about it for a few moments. "What do you need me to do?"

"Take a nice long bath, relax, then put on your best garments and walk down to the evening meeting like nothing ever happened. I'll have a shadow clone accompany you and sensei will be outside the door with his boring usual self." The Genin had a smirk as he said the last part.

'Boring? I'm not boring.' The silver haired man just looked at his student with a deadpan expression.

Daichi continued. "At that time I'll be in this room hidden. If the attacker tries to tamper with anything here again, I'll know."

"What about the other people? How will you know if there is anyone working with the enemy.?" Ryoma asked the Genin.

Daichi held a mysterious smile as he looked at the man. "That... Is a secret. Trust me. If they try another attempt on your life, I'll find them."

At that time Kakashi asked a question that was on his mind. "You said you had an idea as to how the poison got here. Tell me, was it a special shape transformation jutsu?"

Daichi smiled and nodded. "Yeah. I believe whoever did this created the poison and added it to their jutsu. The jutsu most likely would be a small puppet or semi sentient chakra creature. Maybe a small rat, spider or a lizard."

The idea came to the Genin when he pondered on how the attacker could get in the building without anyone knowing. 'This particular jutsu used as a delivery method... I think it might be similar to Sai's ink creatures. Instead of Ink as the substance used, here it is poison and water style jutsu. Still, this is just a theory. I need confirmation.'
