269

The class visits Hana sensei in the hospital, bringing her gifts. Kawaki is chewed out by Shikamaru for not reporting about the assassin. Naruto takes Kawaki off the case and assigns Sai and the Police Force the mission to find them. Kae is being prepared for her return to the Land of Bamboo. Kawaki and Himawari decide to team up with Eiki in order to cathc the culprit before Kae would be sent away, since his uncle is Koutarou the chief of the Police Force. Kae wants to hear the truth about Kawaki's mission from his own mouth. Himawari discovers Kae's butler Batora on one of the festival photos, despite him refusing to come initially. Leaving Eiki, Kawaki and Himawari storm off to Kae's, to protect her from Batora. By the time they arrive however, the assassin is there and has already wounded the butler. Kawaki faces off against the assassin in the woods, cornering the assassin to the point, that they blow themself up. Upon Kawaki's query, Batora reveals that he was secretly investigating the possibility that Kae's enemies are already in the village. Naruto overlooks Kawaki's earlier failure to report, since he excelled in his mission instead, while Shikamaru explains that Batora's investigations revealed the mastermind as a minister from the Land of Bamboo and the guardian of Kae's stepbrother. Kawaki is left feeling suspicious about whether it's all over now. (Source: Wikipedia) Kawaki & Himawari Academy Arc: (9/13)
