Chapter 128: 127 Ordinary Person

~8 min read 1,560 words

【Obtained usable anomalous item "Infected Blood Bandage", hidden trait of the heterochromatic badge "Materialist Soul (Crimson)" activated】

【Materialist Soul (Heterochromatic · Crimson · Cannot be upgraded):...】

【Wearing Effect:...】

【Advancement Route:...】

【Hidden Trait: Badge Slot 3, Current Slot Count: 6, Total Anomalous Items Required to Open Next Slot: 8】

【Your infection value has increased】

【Current infection value is: 2.8】

The slot count did indeed increase by one, but the number of anomalous items required to open the next slot actually changed directly from four to eight...

Looking at the explanation that popped up on the badge panel, Li Ang couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Counting the 【Infected Blood Bandage】 just obtained through "friendly communication," he currently possessed a total of 4 anomalous items: the sheep head, the broom, the pendant, and the bandage. There was still a long way to go before the next "slot opening."

And the young Husky sleeping soundly on the sheep head, although it also had its own anomalous item panel, was not counted in. It was estimated that it might be because it was alive and not considered an anomalous "item," or because it was still an underage dog and child labor was not given a position.

Hmm... feels like the latter is more likely.

After reaching out to stroke the young Husky's short fur, which felt excellent, Li Ang looked at the child laborer who had turned over and continued to sleep soundly, even snoring, and couldn't help but chuckle, then nodded slightly toward the female prisoner who was glaring at him.

"Thank you."

"..."

Thank your mother!!!

Looking at Li Ang, who nodded politely to thank her, the female prisoner who had been "forcibly robbed" of the bandage, although she wanted to scold him severely, was worried that after annoying him, it would harm the companion who had finally infiltrated the Secret Investigation Bureau. In the end, she had to choose to swallow her anger, bite her teeth, and turn her head away.

Devil!

This damn guy, usually looks harmless, but once he takes off his disguise, he is simply a devil who plays with people's hearts!

After I get out, I must tell others not to be deceived by his appearance. This guy from the Cleaning Bureau is ten times more dangerous than he looks!

"By the way, before leaving, I have a few more questions I want to ask you."

After looking at the female prisoner's soul, which was half-resentful and half-fearful, Li Ang, who was preparing to leave, hesitated for a while, but finally asked:

"If you successfully escape from here, are you still prepared to continue being a rebel?"

"???"

What does that mean? What does he mean by asking this question!

Looking at the female prisoner whose eyes suddenly froze, and although she didn't say a word, her whole soul began to surge, Li Ang shook his head:

"Although you performed normally, the soul will not lie."

"Your soul has all kinds of emotions, but it lacks the fear of death. But if you were the kind of person who completely disregards death, when I pointed out that you had an insider in the Secret Investigation Bureau, your fear of death suddenly broke out temporarily. So I think the insider you have in the Secret Investigation Bureau should have promised to save you, and it is precisely because whether he is exposed directly determines whether you can be saved, so you would rather hand over the bandage than let me shut up, right?"

¤co

"..."

Facing Li Ang, who had stripped all her secrets clean in less than five minutes, the female prisoner only felt a chill in her heart and completely fell into deep despair.

"Yes! All correct!!!"

Knowing that in front of this "devil" who could see through people's hearts, lying had no meaning at all, the female prisoner simply let go, glared at him, and gritted her teeth:

"Bobby Laien is dead, but my husband's revenge hasn't been fully avenged! What killed him wasn't just those fat-headed nobles of the Laien family, but this Kingdom that has already rotted to the roots!"

"Since the revenge hasn't ended, then if I can escape, of course I will continue to be a rebel! And I will keep doing it until I die!"

"Okay, I know."

After looking at the female prisoner's extremely "sincere" soul, Li Ang couldn't help but shake his head again, then said apologetically:

"Sorry, after I go out, I will immediately catch that spy."

"You?!"

Hearing Li Ang's words, the female prisoner couldn't help but roar in shock and anger:

"You just took my things! Damn it! You actually lied to me?"

"This... I didn't promise you I wouldn't catch him. I only promised you to shut your mouth. To use our Director's words, this is called one thing at a time."

After biting the bullet and saying this quite shameless sentence, Li Ang, whose face had not yet been practiced to the point of being thick, felt his face heat up slightly, then said shamefully:

"Sorry, if you were just attacking officials, I might not necessarily do this, but every time you launch an attack, you involve a large number of ordinary people. I cannot turn a blind eye."

"And both you and that Director of the Secret Investigation Bureau have shown great interest in me. He even holds great hostility toward me."

"Considering the style of your rebels, the possibility of attacking my family is not small, so I must prepare in advance. By the way, just in case, I need to confirm again, that Director with a scar on his face is the spy you mixed into the Secret Investigation Bureau, right?"

"I don't know!"

Hearing Li Ang's inquiry, knowing that the other party was going to start another "mind-reading performance," the female prisoner couldn't help but struggle desperately, wanting to knock herself unconscious.

Unfortunately, as a major criminal in the Princess assassination case, she was firmly handcuffed to the chair and couldn't make any big movements, so she could only pull the handcuffs on her body, making a creaking sound.

"It seems I guessed right."

Relying on soul vision, he directly obtained the answer to the question. In the female prisoner's glare, Li Ang continued to ask:

"Next question, does he have any anomalous items in his hands?"

"I don't know!!"

"Actually has an anomalous item... Then is his strength weaker than yours? Or stronger than yours?"

"I don't know!!"

"Is he a bit stronger than you? Then do you know what his ability is?"

"..."

Is it really that she doesn't know this time?

After asking a few more questions from other angles and finding that no more information could be asked, Li Ang couldn't help but sigh, then stood up from his seat.

"Thank you for your cooperation, goodbye."

"You... you are despicable! You are shameless!"

Looking at Li Ang, who had teased her and shamelessly cheated her out of the right to use the bandage, the female prisoner couldn't help but struggle desperately while screaming hysterically:

"Stop pretending to be a good person there. Still can't turn a blind eye... You are just stronger than me! Do you dare to touch those who are truly strong?"

"If you *** really think you are a good person, go and kill all those trash! ***! I feel sick looking at people like you! You *** are just a hypocritical bastard!"

"..."

Hearing the female prisoner's swearing full of censored words, Li Ang, who was preparing to leave the interrogation room, stopped his steps, thought for a while, and nodded:

"You are right."

"???"

In her somewhat confused expression, Li Ang sighed again and admitted directly:

"And I am not only hypocritical, but even cowardly. I clearly can't stand many things, but I don't have the courage to throw everything away and take action to change it completely;"

"I am not only cowardly, but also awkward. I clearly don't have the ability to manage many things, but I can't do it completely without turning a blind eye. Whenever I really encounter it, I always think about intervening;"

"I am not only awkward, but also reckless. I clearly know that if I take action, I will cause trouble and put myself in danger, and I should just endure it, but I often can't help it..."

"I am indeed quite a failure as a person. Sometimes I even hate myself."

"..."

Facing Li Ang's extremely sincere self-analysis and listening to his self-evaluation that was even more excessive than what she said, the female prisoner was completely stunned.

"Then... then you..."

"I am just an ordinary person, so I only do what I can do. As for the rest..."

After looking at the shining badges on the panel, Li Ang's right hand couldn't help but clench slightly, and a touch of not-so-pure determination appeared in his eyes.

That depends on how high I can go in the end! ===== CHAPTER 129 =====

"Then you... then you..."

"I am just an ordinary person, so I only do what I can. As for the rest..."

After glancing at the gleaming badges on the interface, Leon's right hand couldn't help but clench slightly, a trace of impure determination showing in his eyes.

That will depend on how high I can climb in the end!
