Chapter 1617: The Person Who Knows Hearing Li Ang Best

'...'

Facing the sarcasm from the Ophiuchus Director, the red-haired Director, who was also sitting in the 【Parasitic Mistletoe】 berry, glanced at him and didn't speak.

And seeing that she ignored him, a hint of impatience added to the Ophiuchus Director's somewhat withered face, and then he evaluated with a gloomy face:

'This kid might have a good heart, and caught your eye because of his so-called kindness, but he is completely incompetent in other areas!'

'To accomplish such a great thing as changing the world, strength, intelligence, means, and courage... these things are all indispensable.'

'He may indeed have some special means, but his soul strength is only at the level of an ordinary True God, and he can't even see through your 【Parasitic Mistletoe】. Once he is sneak-attacked by someone at my level, he will definitely die!'

'...'

'Also, he just gave up the intention of rescuing people after being topped by Vernon with a few words, and was coaxed away half-willingly. His intelligence is obviously not up to standard!'

'...'

'As for the courage to ignore all opposition and practice his own philosophy, and the means to handle things when encountering resistance... these places are all incompetent! If you ask me, he is just a good-natured person with good luck. I really don't know what you see in him!'

"..."

'Olivia? Why don't you speak?'

Facing the repeated questioning of the Ophiuchus Director, the red-haired Director glanced at him through the berry, and then frowned:

'You are really noisy... Don't talk, let me think!'

'...'

You can keep thinking!

Seeing that the red-haired Director was still stubborn at this point, the Ophiuchus Director's face darkened slightly, and then he stood up from the berry he was parasitizing, full of displeasure:

'Then you stay here and think! I have my own things to do, and I don't have time to accompany you here... Also, remember our bet!'

Looking at the red-haired Director who was still frowning and thinking hard, not knowing what problem she had encountered, the Ophiuchus Director complained unhappily:

'The kid you fancy is really not just ordinarily stupid! He couldn't even pass the first test I arranged! According to our agreement, if he couldn't let me...'

'Don't move!'

Just as the Ophiuchus Director was about to ask her to fulfill the agreement, the red-haired Director suddenly raised her hand and grabbed, the two small tender leaves of 【Parasitic Mistletoe】 rolled up slightly, gathered the two bright red berries hanging down, and swished back into the blood vessels of the security guard.

And the moment the two berries retracted, a small section of a knife tip strangely emerged from the wall on the rear side of the punishment area, nimbly gouging out a hole the size of a chestnut.

Immediately after, an eye whose color was very familiar to both of them was silently pasted on the other end of the hole, and the pitch-black pupil stared dead at the direction of the security guard.

'...'

Holy crap!

After making eye contact with Hearing Li Ang's scrutinizing pupils through the quadruple concealment of the berry, blood vessels, skin, and clothing, the Ophiuchus Director's arm couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he felt his back go slightly cold.

Judging from the current angle, if Olivia hadn't discovered something was wrong and put away the 【Parasitic Mistletoe】 in advance, he and she would have been discovered! Speaking of which, is the new generation of Cleanup Agents so cautious? They have to come back and check again for such a small matter?

'I think I understand where the problem is.'

Shaking the berry she was hiding in slightly, bumping into the dumbfounded Ophiuchus Director, the red-haired Director looked at Hearing Li Ang's pitch-black pupils, her expression somewhat complex:

'The test you arranged was too straightforward, making him notice some things that were not quite right... Especially when you influenced this security guard to take the initiative to mention the Lumen Church to him, he would definitely be extra careful.'

???

After looking at the pupil that was still staring at this side, the Ophiuchus Director couldn't help but say in disbelief: 'Does he have some kind of problem? This security guard just mentioned the Lumen Church casually, and he suspects him?'

'You don't understand Hearing Li Ang.'

After glancing at the suspicious Ophiuchus Director, the red-haired Director explained with a bit of pride, but not without a headache:

'Hearing Li Ang's defensiveness is much heavier than ordinary people. He likes to consider the worst situation first in everything. Even in the Bureau of Cleanup, he is the most cautious batch.'

'Based on my understanding of him, after discovering the problem of low-grade fever, he must have gone to find Lord Taurus to inquire about the situation. After concluding that it might be you who is making trouble, according to his habits, he would mostly consider the possibility that "the Ophiuchus Director has secretly controlled the entire West Calevin Kingdom."'

'And before he came over, he specifically notified the royal family of the West Calevin Kingdom, which is equivalent to actively exposing his whereabouts, so he would be on guard against everyone who actively approached him... and not just people.'

'...'

So... the security guard I controlled just approached him and said a few words to him, and he was directly suspected?

'I said just now, your test was too obvious.'

Looking at the Ophiuchus Director who was silenced, the red-haired Director blinked and continued to analyze:

'The security guard you controlled was too "enthusiastic." Living in such a high-pressure environment in the West Calevin Kingdom for decades, and still being able to risk the danger of dereliction of duty to specifically go over and remind him to pay attention to safety, this in itself is a suspicious thing.'

'And even if Hearing Li Ang didn't know enough about the situation in the West Calevin Kingdom and didn't find something wrong at the first time, but later knowing that you risked the danger of being discovered for violating the royal order and casually mentioned the Lumen Church to a "traveler," he would definitely suspect you 10,000%.'

'...'

!

No... this is also okay? Can't the security guard be a good person, or a chatterbox who can't keep his mouth shut? Speaking of which, you guys live every day suspecting this and that, don't you feel tired?

'Although Hearing Li Ang is a bit special, judging from the work content of Cleanup Agents, Cleanup Agents who are used to suspecting everything are the batch that is easiest to survive. Hearing Li Ang is just more careful than most people.'

Seeming to guess the Ophiuchus Director's thoughts, the red-haired Director habitually explained for Hearing Li Ang, then glanced at the Ophiuchus Director and continued to add:

'Or people with exceptionally outstanding talent, although their brains are not very good, but their strength is indeed strong enough.'

'...'

I hate you guys with too many schemes the most!

The Ophiuchus Director, who was yin-and-yang-ed, had nothing to say, and could only sit back with a dark face, waiting in the berry for a full five minutes accompanied by the screams of the prisoners, until the black pupil that made people feel cold disappeared from behind the wall hole.

However, just as the Ophiuchus Director breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave from 【Parasitic Mistletoe】, he was stopped by the red-haired Director again.

'Don't move.'

'???'

'Look to the left, at the big gear in the shadow under the rocker.'

Following the red-haired Director's guidance, looking at the mechanism used to hang prisoners on the side of the punishment area, and seeing a familiar black pupil in the side of a brass gear that was cut exceptionally smooth, the Ophiuchus Director's scalp couldn't help but go numb.

No... this kid hasn't left yet?

'Hearing Li Ang has a puppy from the 【Mirror World】 in his hand, which can observe the target directly through any nearby mirror surface. With his means, he doesn't need to dig a hole in the wall at all, and even if he digs a hole, it won't be so easily discovered.'

Looking at the black pupil on the surface of the gear like a small black spot, which couldn't be discovered without careful observation, the corners of the red-haired Director's mouth couldn't help but pull up slightly, and then she analyzed slowly:

'So according to my understanding of Hearing Li Ang, his act of digging a hole and looking over just now was highly likely just to make people relax their vigilance. After discovering that he had "left," people like you would easily expose yourself once you breathed a sigh of relief.'

'...'

'Speak, why don't you speak either? Hmm?'
