Chapter 177: 176 Secrets of the Royal Family
"Thank you, I will definitely cooperate fully."
After stealing another glance at the red-haired Director's lips and confirming that the color of the lipstick was the same as the half lipstick mark on Leon's collar, Princess Veronika's eyes flickered, then she said:
"Director, although I am not an employee of your Cleaning Bureau, I thought about it last night, and I feel that three people might have problems. I don't know if it's convenient for you to listen to my thoughts?"
Your thoughts?
Feeling a subtle hostility from the beautiful woman in front of her, the red-haired Director couldn't help but narrow her eyes, then secretly controlled a strand of hair to pull Leon's palm and print it on the Black Goat's forehead, signaling him to check the Princess's soul state, and then nodded with a smile:
"Of course it's convenient, or rather, very welcome. After all, having a target to investigate is much better than us looking for a needle in a haystack."
"Then I'll disturb you."
Controlling herself not to think about that lipstick mark and lipstick, Princess Veronika took a deep breath, then frowned and narrated:
"First is a pair of grandmother and granddaughter. Yesterday, because it was a private visit, I was always very cautious. Except for Mr. Leon, I almost didn't have any close contact with anyone. The only exception was the servant kitchen on the west side of the Laien family manor."
"At that time, Mr. Leon was ambushed while chasing rebels and found a kitchen, seemingly wanting to replenish something. I was outside the kitchen coaxing a little girl named Fei Liya, and was patted on the chest by her a few times. After Mr. Leon came out again, he didn't recognize who I was."
"Later, when Mr. Leon forgot me and left on his own, I wanted to ask him the reason, but was stopped by that little girl's grandma. I suspect her grandma was deliberately stopping me."
"Also, although they are many years apart in age, that old woman named Lucy claims to be Fei Liya's sister, and that little girl named Fei Liya also really treats her as her sister. I feel that these two people are highly suspicious."
A pair of strange grandmother and granddaughter who call each other sisters?
Looking at Leon, who was touching the goat head, and getting the affirmative look from him that the Princess wasn't lying, the red-haired Director pondered slightly, then nodded and continued to ask:
"Very valuable information. May I ask if you still remember the appearance of that pair of grandmother and granddaughter?"
"I remember."
Princess Veronika answered very firmly:
"That old woman named Lucy has a very hoarse voice, her spine is slightly hunched, and she looks about sixty or seventy years old. The little girl named Fei Liya has a round face and is small, about six or seven years old, and her eyes are very, very special, there is a kind of... mm... how should I put it?"
After frowning and recalling for a while, Princess Veronika said uncertainly:
"It's like... a very pure feeling, but not the kind of purity of a child. There are also emotions and thinking in a child's eyes, but that child's eyes give people a kind of... mm..."
After recalling with her, Leon beside her tentatively added:
"Clear stupidity?"
"Right! That's what I mean!"
After looking at Leon, Princess Veronika nodded:
"That child is like a piece of white paper that has been wiped clean. Looking at it, her intelligence seems to be lower than children of the same age, but it's not real stupidity, but a strange blankness because she has experienced too little and doesn't know anything."
"Understood, it is indeed very valuable information."
Looking toward Senior Jie Rui, who was also thinking, and giving him a look to go check immediately, the red-haired Director, who had firmly remembered the information, asked warmly:
"Then what about the third person?"
The third person...
Princess Veronika hesitated after hearing this, seemingly a bit hesitant, but finally said:
"The third suspicious person is my younger brother Watching Qiaoshuya. Although he didn't show any anomalies, I don't know why, but I have a hunch that he seems to have participated in it too..."
"Mm... forget it, just pretend I didn't say this sentence!"
"After all, if this matter really has something to do with Watching Qiaoshuya, given the degree of hatred he and his mother have for me, I'm afraid I would have already been directly finished off."
"I see."
Looking at the Princess who brought up the third suspicious person but suddenly denied it herself, the red-haired Director nodded calmly, then smiled and reached out, making a gesture of invitation toward the door.
"Princess Veronika, if you don't have any other information to provide, the next step is the work of our Cleaning Bureau. Please go to Leon's office and wait for a while!"
"Please don't misunderstand, we are not trying to hide anything from you, it's just that you have been forgotten by people now, so I don't know if the manual in the royal family that can silence the soul still has an effect on you. Eavesdropping on our communication might bring extra danger, I hope you can understand."
"Okay."
Princess Veronika nodded upon hearing this, stood up directly, pushed the door, and walked out. After her footsteps disappeared in the corridor, the red-haired Director immediately began to assign tasks:
"Senior Jie Rui, let your friends go to the kitchen of the Laien family, record all the auras that appeared there at noon yesterday, then compare them one by one, and find that pair of grandmother and granddaughter who call each other sisters as soon as possible."
"Then notify Emma for me, let her temporarily put down other tasks in these two days, maintain vigilance in the Bureau at all times, and if there are traces of rebels, go out directly and catch them back!"
"Finally, it's Leon. After you go home and deliver the hair, take my note and go to the palace immediately, and check that Prince Watching Qiaoshuya well to see if he has any connection with this matter!"
"Okay."
After hearing the tasks assigned by the red-haired Director, Senior Jie Rui pushed the door and left. But Leon hesitated and proposed:
"Director, if possible, can you find someone to swap tasks with me?"
"I'm afraid not."
The red-haired Director shook her head:
"The only person in the Bureau who can distinguish lies is you, and you are the best candidate to investigate Prince Watching Qiaoshuya."
"..."
I'm not saying that the work content arrangement is inappropriate, mainly because I gave that guy a *** slap yesterday and spat at his face. I feel that he might not be very willing to cooperate with me...
"Leon, believe me, that woman is not ordinary, her intuition is absolutely worth paying attention to."
Looking at Leon, who still seemed reluctant, the red-haired Director said earnestly:
"If she is really the Princess, then she is a direct bloodline of the Twelve Royal Families. And the Twelve Royal Families... mm... let me tell you this, if you keep tracing back the ancestors of all the royal families of the Twelve Kingdoms, they can actually barely be considered people of the Cleaning Bureau."
"Ah?"
"It's true."
After looking at Leon, who was full of surprise, the red-haired Director hesitated slightly, but finally explained:
"Including the destroyed East Karavin Kingdom, the ancestors of all the royal families of the kingdoms were once the sitters of the Watchtower Palace, and some might even include the creator of the Watchtower Palace. It is precisely because of the achievements of their ancestors that the Cleaning Bureau is willing to sign an agreement with the Twelve Kingdoms, and even make concessions in some aspects."
"And the royal families of various kingdoms mostly inherited some anomalies from the bloodlines of their ancestors who sat in the palace, and they often intermarried, leading to some outstanding direct blood descendants who, even without anomalous objects, more or less mastered some relatively special abilities."
"Leon, listen to me, if I didn't guess wrong, the special ability of this Princess Veronika is likely reflected in intuition. So since the Princess feels that Prince Watching Qiaoshuya has a problem, then he mostly has a problem, and it is worth your effort to investigate well!" ===== CHAPTER 178 =====
