Chapter 1179: Classic Peach Picking

"Sorry...... just now...... a little dizzy......"

After vomiting happily, Li Ang's face finally looked better, and then he said to the Scorpio Branch Chief whose face was iron-blue:

"Your Excellency Edward, our plan was quite smooth. Although Prince Andre did not appear, catching his sister in the end can be considered a successful capture of a royal family member."

"......"

The Scorpio Branch Chief, who didn't fully dodge in a hurry and was vomited all over his pants, was silent for a while, and then nodded with his cheeks twitching.

"It's smooth...... Does she know the situation of the royal family?"

"Probably not very clear."

Li Ang shook his head after hearing this:

"She is only twelve or thirteen years old, and she doesn't even know she is controlled. The credibility of the intelligence obtained from her is not high. However, besides her, Nicole also caught two cleaners from the Gemini Branch, maybe they can ask something."

After hearing Li Ang's words, the heart of the Scorpio Branch Chief, which had been hanging slightly, finally settled down.

Although the plan had a little twist and didn't catch the original target, catching the princess and two cleaners from the Gemini Branch was not a wasted trip.

In addition, considering that this plan was not only proposed by Li Ang, but also executed by him personally, it can be considered a good result that the action could land smoothly without making any earth-shattering movements.

"Thank you for your hard work."

After nodding slightly to Li Ang, the Scorpio Branch Chief turned his head and looked at the female reporter and the emerald-eyed girl who fell into the landing net, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, then said to Li Ang kindly:

"I'm thinking like this, we happen to have a royal family member in our hands now, and you, who hijacked the princess, can no longer show up.

Then next, it's better to let Miss Nicole stay alone to cooperate with us to continue the investigation, while you temporarily suspend the mission to escort this little princess away. What do you think of this proposal?"

"......"

I think your proposal is simply wanting to drive me away......

Glancing at the Scorpio Branch Chief's insincere smile, Li Ang knew that the hidden characteristic of 【Exit with Dirty】 had been activated. He would subconsciously want to refuse to act with him, so he shook his head without hesitation.

"I can't leave yet."

"How to say?"

The Scorpio Branch Chief's expression remained unchanged, and he asked with a smile:

"Is there anything else not done?"

"Yes."

After recalling the situation he heard from the robber siblings, Li Ang nodded slightly and said with the same expression:

"I have some things I want to check. Although it shouldn't have much to do with that mysterious organization and the Wang Gong royal family, it might also give birth to very dangerous anomalous objects, so I feel it is necessary to pay attention to it."

"So that's it."

After hearing Li Ang's request, the Scorpio Branch Chief didn't even hesitate for a second, and didn't even ask what Li Ang wanted to check, and nodded directly:

"Then like this, Miss Nicole will follow us to check Atifi 01 and the Wang Gong royal family, and you will personally protect this little princess, and by the way, you can check what you want to know.

And in order to facilitate your action and protect the safety of the little princess, I can let Alger accompany you. After you have checked what you want to know, you can leave the Wang Gong Kingdom with them...... What do you think?"

Alger? That Level 1 cleaner nicknamed "Line Man"?

After hearing the Scorpio Branch Chief's words, Li Ang couldn't help but glance at his side. A tall, sturdy, bearded cleaner was looking at him with some astonishment. He should be that "Line Man" Alger.

Hmm, looks like a tough guy, and he is Level 1, so his strength should not be bad.

Looking at it this way, if you temporarily withdraw from the mission, you can exchange it for a Level 1 cleaner bodyguard, plus the opportunity to investigate floating crystals and Cheshire, which is not bad?

'Don't agree to him!'

Just when Li Ang was about to nod and agree, the female reporter's voice with a hint of anxiety suddenly came to his ears. 'He arranged it this way, definitely wanting to grab the credit!'

After using some method to pass her voice to Li Ang's ears, the female reporter, who had just been dragged over by the 【Air-Piercing Fishing Line】 and was adapting to the dizziness, said anxiously:

'Counting me, there are now one Zodiac Branch Chief, two Level 1 cleaners, and three senior Level 2 cleaners, plus you, a pervert. It's enough to catch a true god together, there's no need to be so cautious!

And even if it's not convenient for you to show up, it's not difficult to hide you in a flower and carry you with you. He arranged Princess Fei Liya for you and sent people to follow you, definitely preparing to swallow the credit for this investigation mission alone!'

Yo, you seem to be quite knowledgeable about this kind of workplace intrigue?

After looking at the female reporter in surprise, Li Ang gave her a reassuring look, then nodded to the Scorpio Branch Chief with a smile.

"Okay, then let's do it according to the Branch Chief's proposal...... I will trouble Your Excellency Alger later."

"Uh...... easy to say, easy to say......"

'No? Didn't you hear what I said?'

Seeing that he clearly heard her reminder, but still agreed to the Scorpio Branch Chief's proposal, the female reporter couldn't help but open her apricot eyes wide.

'The royal family member has already been caught. If you don't participate in the subsequent matters, and it is done by him, it is equivalent to you having no contribution to this investigation mission, just attacking the royal family of the Wang Gong Kingdom. The Cleaning Bureau's evaluation of you will definitely decline!'

'It doesn't matter, let it decline.'

After smiling at the female reporter, Li Ang walked over, helped Fei Liya, who was covering her mouth and looking like she wanted to vomit, pat her back, and transmitted his voice:

'I have no interest in being promoted in the Cleaning Bureau, I have no need for merits, and I don't have much meaning for general anomalous objects, so I don't need to use merits to apply for anomalous objects, so the bureau's evaluation or something has no meaning to me.'

'But you can't just let it go like this?'

Defeated by Li Ang's "no desire and no demand," the female reporter also pretended to help Fei Liya pat her back, leaned over and stared at him:

'It's you who did the violation, and all the benefits are occupied by his Scorpio Branch? Don't you feel aggrieved in your heart?'

'It can't be said to be aggrieved or not.'

Li Ang shook his head slightly, and while continuing to pat her back, explained:

'This mission was originally dominated by the Scorpio Branch, and our Virgo Branch was here to assist from the beginning. And people's Scorpio Branch even dispatched the Branch Chief, so it is normal for the credit to occupy the majority.

Besides, although it is said that I am responsible for the violation of attacking the royal family, as the leader of this investigation mission, if something really happens, he still has to bear the main responsibility. People also take great risks, and it is normal to want more benefits.'

'No, why are you still speaking for him?'

After hearing this, the female reporter felt a bit annoyed, patted her hand forcefully, and asked with some anger at his lack of ambition:

'He arranged it this way, clearly bullying people by relying on the status of a Zodiac Branch Chief, why don't you resist?'

Li Ang had to smile helplessly after hearing this, and also patted it with force, asking with some dissatisfaction:

"You also know he is Director Huangdao, the gap in strength is right there, how could I possibly resist?"

"Besides, given the terrible relationship between the Director and him—where they start cursing the moment they meet—him just 'picking the peaches' is already a favor to us. In a situation where we can't win, instead of quibbling over things I can't win, of course I should take the opportunity to negotiate terms!"

"Slap!"

"But you can't just be bullied for nothing, right?"

"Slap!"

"Then what do you want to do? Make a scene with him over a bit of credit?"

"Slap!"

"Even if you don't make a scene, you have to let him know... Oh my, why is this child vomiting?"
