Chapter 1596: Hmm?

~8 min read 1,430 words

Leon's hair turned white?!

Hearing Amin's words, the Red-Haired Director couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He hurriedly took the document and examined it carefully, and then he really saw a wisp of white hair on Leon's head.

How is this going?

Reaching out to touch the portrait on the document, confirming that there was no problem, the Red-Haired Director's brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

This portrait is not a real photo, but a heart image drawn with 【Painting Puppet】, which is a pattern directly intercepted from the memory of the "painter," and there will definitely be no mistakes.

So Leon's hair... is it the soul pushed down to the Cliff of the End before? Because the soul's lack was not fully filled, so the "ends" of the body like hair had problems due to the lack of soul "filling"?

"It shouldn't be a soul problem."

After leaning over and carefully examining Leon's portrait, Amin shook her head and denied the Red-Haired Director's guess, then reached out and pointed to Director Taurus beside Leon:

"I know the human body quite well. If it is white hair caused by soul damage and inability to perfectly control the flesh, it should be like Director Taurus's hair, which is that kind of withered, slightly gray silver-white."

"And Leon's hair has not lost its luster, nor is it withered and gray. It is that kind of white with great vitality. It doesn't look like the result of life force loss, it looks like... hmm... have you seen a puppy?"

"Puppy?"

"It's that kind of mixed-hair little puppy."

After pondering for a while, Amin blinked and gave an example:

"Some breeds are relatively... complex puppies, they might be one color when they are born, but another color when they grow up. I feel that Leon's current state is a little bit like them."

"..."

You are really tactful... but I probably understand what you mean.

After staring at the wisp of "highlighted" white hair on Leon's forehead for a while, the Red-Haired Director seemed to understand something, couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, then nodded peacefully:

"Maybe it's really this situation... Amin, there must be a place for you in this Underworld learning. Do you have anything else?"

"No."

For office workers, the so-called "Do you have anything else?" can basically be defaulted to "I have something to do, you can go." Amin naturally wouldn't fail to hear this, so she nodded and left the director's office directly.

And after she left, the Red-Haired Director reached out to his ear, lifted a wisp of bright red blood, reached out and rubbed it twice, then sighed quietly.

Leon... White of Flow, Black of Profundity... I understand.

"Understood! Ahahaha! I understand!"

Just when Leon passed through the cold gray fog outside the Ghost Gate and bathed in the cold sun of the present world again, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang's head suddenly drilled out from his sleeve, laughing loudly with joy:

"From advocating war with the Death Realm, to part of the soul going deep into the Death Realm, to letting the Cleanup Bureau and the Death Realm lose both sides, and specially saving Taurus who supports you the most... these are all your plans, right?"

"..."

"..."

"Who are you?"

"?!!!"

Not expecting Leon's first sentence

Seeing that the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang was blushing so quickly and looked like it might explode on the spot at any moment, Li Ang waved his hand and explained with a smile while continuing on his way:

"Don't be anxious, I'm just joking... you're just a bit outdated, it's not like you died by accident. How could I forget you?"

You better be! Although it didn't know what "outdated" meant, seeing Li Ang take the initiative to ease the atmosphere, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang, having been broken by a single sentence, could only gasp for air and then said with a dark face:

"Li Ang! You brat..."

"Hmm?"

"You..."

"Hmm?"

"My lord..."

"Hmm."

Damn you!

Feeling Li Ang's True God-level prestige with an infection value as high as 60 points, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang, whose peak was only 59 points, had no choice but to swallow its pride and change its form of address. Then, while greeting Li Ang's ancestors for eighteen generations in its heart, it tried its best to squeeze out a smile:

"During this time, while I've been by... your side, I've had a few speculations in my heart. If you don't mind, could you listen to my analysis and see if it makes any sense?"

"Speak."

"..."

Read every line of content as it is!

Facing Li Ang, who had become "arrogant after success" and was now answering one word at a time, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang couldn't help but grind its teeth in resentment, then tried to probe with a face full of smiles:

"Your goal is to completely control the present world and let the whole world operate according to your will, but the Cleaning Bureau, which insists on maintaining the status quo, will absolutely not allow you to realize your wish. Therefore, the Cleaning Bureau has actually become the biggest stumbling block on your path."

"Perhaps."

Perhaps what? Definitely!

After glancing at Li Ang, who looked noncommittal, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang couldn't help but curl its lip, then stretched its head forward and continued:

"But although the Cleaning Bureau is decadent and muddled, it still holds the most powerful force in humanity and is not something an ordinary person or even a single country can contend with. You haven't grown to the point where you can forcibly suppress all opposition either.

So you changed your path: while using the Kingdom of Lituo as a foundation and binding major kingdoms to gain support, you actively approached the Cleaning Bureau to seek promotion, attempting to become part of the upper echelon and get your hands on decision-making power."

"That's hard to say."

Still pretending!

After sneering with contempt in its heart, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang narrowed its eyes and said:

"And after the incident in the Dead World, you immediately saw an opportunity. By inciting the Cleaning Bureau to take the initiative and strike, you lured them out of the blessing of the Star Palace and the protection of the Watchtower, and started a fight with the dead on the Dead World's home turf, where they were at a disadvantage.

In addition, fearing that the Dead World would be intimidated by the Cleaning Bureau and choose to negotiate, you specifically went down ahead of time to kill a Dead World Sovereign as cruelly as possible, and expressed your own disgust and hostility toward the Dead World, letting them understand the consequences of surrendering, forcing them to join forces and fight the Cleaning Bureau to the death."

"Heh heh."

Li Ang, who was focused on the road, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and said somewhat helplessly:

"You really have quite an imagination..."

What do you mean I have an imagination? I'm just thinking about it, but you actually dared to do it!

Not believing a single word of Li Ang's, and recalling what it had seen recently, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang couldn't help but smack its lips, then continued with a look of certainty:

"In short, after the fight with the Dead World, the Capricorn Director took six Zodiac Bureau Chiefs to Heaven Mountain and won't be back for a while. As for the Sagittarius Director, who was very wary of you in the past and could influence Taurus's decisions, he was also temporarily left under the Cliff of Finality.

And the remaining Taurus Director has a very high degree of trust in you; without the Sagittarius Director's reminders, he basically follows your lead. The Cancer Director doesn't have many schemes and is nearing the end of his life; in the future, he will be busy passing on secret arts to the next director and doesn't have the energy to keep an eye on you.

So now, the Cleaning Bureau only has your voice; you are currently the only brain of the Cleaning Bureau. Before the Capricorn Director returns with the Zodiac Bureau Chiefs, no one can oppose whatever you want to do.

And the Dead World, which the Cleaning Bureau almost wiped itself out to conquer, has already become the Underworld Branch held in your hands. Coupled with the Kingdom of Keluoke's technology for replicating bodies, as long as you hold these two things, you hold the support of most cleaners.

The current Cleaning Bureau is already completely yours!"
