Chapter 220: 219 True Inquiry (Part 2)

Actually able to steal to the God of Enlightenment through the Hand of Stealing Luck… If I had known this, I really should have left Neisen a few more anomalous objects for self-preservation.

Looking at the "old friend" who had dedicated fifteen generations to his lineage in front of him, the Aquarius Director shook his head, then directly ignored Li Ang and Senior Jie Rui, turned his head to look at the Cleaning Bureau Director, and said sincerely:

「Director, the God of Enlightenment has been imprisoned by our Aquarius lineage for two thousand years, and I alone have squeezed its flesh and true spirit more than a thousand times. 」

「No matter how deep the hatred is, I'm afraid it can't compare to one-ten-thousandth of its hatred for me. Do you really want to suspect a director who has served in the bureau for nearly a hundred years because of the one-sided words of such an outer god? 」

「Sorry, this is not a question of whether I believe it or not. 」

After the light purple eyes flickered twice, the Cleaning Bureau Director answered calmly:

「Unlike the private manufacture of anomalous objects just now, since this matter involves the safety of the Watchtower, there is no room for negotiation. 」

「Whether it is you or other directors, or even me, the Director, as long as we are accused and the accuser produces certain evidence, we must immediately prove our innocence. 」

「If you cannot prove your innocence, you need to directly accept memory reading… Aquarius Director, do you have any defense for this accusation? 」

「No. 」

After looking at Li Ang beside the Cleaning Bureau Director, the Aquarius Director said calmly:

「Bring the god-tier brain-eating demon over. I choose to accept memory reading directly… Additionally, I am curious why the Virgo branch bureau would be so concerned about me. 」

「Not only initiating an inquiry against me, a director, by connecting with six branch bureau directors, but even risking the release of the imprisoned evil god to forcibly contact this material used to perform the anomalous creation secret technique…」

「I am the God of Enlightenment! You damn human is the material! As long as you let me out…」

After crossing his fingers and pressing slightly, not knowing what method he used to make the God of Enlightenment shut up, the Aquarius Director looked at the red-haired Director from afar, his eyes full of deep meaning:

「Olivia, if it is confirmed after memory reading that I have done nothing, can I ask you to accept a memory reading as well? And besides you…」

「Why? 」

After hearing the Aquarius Director's words, before he could finish speaking, Leo Bureau Director Beverly could not help but stand up and roar:

「Even if this first inquiry today wasn't done by you, it has nothing to do with you. The second inquiry involves the Watchtower, and Olivia has no suspicious behavior. Why should she be memory-read? 」

「If you talk about suspicious behavior, she has indeed done it, and more than once. 」

After glancing at Beverly, the Aquarius Director said expressionlessly:

「The Baohua family that tried to overthrow the Royal Family should have been executed according to the Kingdom's laws, but Ai Ma Almann, who did not meet the standards, was taken into the Virgo branch bureau by her, indulging her in private plotting for revenge, and covering for her several times. 」

「Besides that, last month she also took Li Ang Laien, who also did not meet the Cleaning Bureau's employment standards but had the right to inherit a title, into the Virgo branch bureau and sent him to the Laien Manor to execute an investigation mission. 」

「The result of that investigation mission was the incident known as the Laien Blood Night. The middle and high levels of the Lionheart family were almost wiped out, the Duke title had no successor, and under a series of coincidences, it was taken by this Level 3 cleaner she broke the rules to recruit. 」

Speaking to this point, the Aquarius Director paused slightly, and then added meaningfully under the thoughtful expressions of a group of branch bureau directors:

「Additionally, Level 1 Disaster Handler of the Virgo branch bureau, Tang Mu Lainas, who has a record of single-handedly expelling a true god, briefly disappeared from the General Bureau's monitoring after completing the cleaning task for the Blood Pine Ridge anomalous incident. 」

「And Tang Mu Lainas's strongest anomalous ability happens to be a pair of dice that can create coincidences, making all impossible things have a 60 percent possibility. And the time he broke away from the General Bureau's monitoring happened to coincide with the time Li Ang Laien obtained the Duke title. 」

After finishing these words,

Looking at the red-haired Director who was frowning, the Aquarius Director continued:

「These problems were all discovered by me when I was pursuing my copy. In recent years, my copy has frequently appeared in the Capital, cultivated a force called the rebels, and tried to completely overthrow the Royal Family. And you seem to be deliberately gathering the heirs of old nobles. 」

「Therefore, I have reason to suspect that you have had contact with my copy and have obtained some kind of benefit from him, or simply reached some extremely dangerous cooperation, which is why you are so determined to initiate an inquiry against me and can produce evidence that makes me difficult to refute every time. 」

Under the suddenly sharp gaze of the Cleaning Bureau Director, the Aquarius Director said leisurely:

「Olivia, may I ask if the suspicious points I raised are enough to invite you to accept memory reading together? 」

「……」

……

Strange… why did the Aquarius Director still mention these? Is he "struggling on his deathbed," or does he really have some trump card and is sure he can survive the memory reading?

After glancing at the direction of the Cleaning Bureau Director and noticing the change in the Director's expression, the red-haired Director could not help but rub her furrowed brow. Although she didn't know Aquarius's plan, she could only nod slightly and agree:

「Okay, I agree to accept memory reading. 」

「However, the order must be after you. If it can be proven that there is no copy, or you are really plotting against the Watchtower, then my memory reading must be canceled! 」

「Not just you, the one who needs to be read is also this Level 3 Accident Handler. 」

After raising his hand and pointing at Li Ang, looking at this troublesome guy who had been ignored by him in the past but caught Neisen in two days and sent key evidence in advance, the Aquarius Director smiled:

「Considering his close relationship with you, if I am proven to have no problems, then he must also accept memory reading. 」

「I object. This matter has nothing to do with Li Ang! 」

Hearing the Aquarius Director's proposal, the red-haired Director's expression tightened, and she objected:

「He has only joined the Virgo branch bureau for a month. If he really needs to be read, I am enough. 」

「Additionally, besides the Laien Blood Night, Li Ang has been dutiful in every mission he performed and completed them quite excellently. He even has a record of killing a Holy Spirit. 」

「And being read by a god-tier brain-eating demon is equivalent to accepting a true-god-level forced contamination, which will definitely affect the stability of his spirit. For a cleaner with such great potential, it is undoubtedly a…」

「His spirit doesn't need contamination; it's already quite unstable. 」

After interrupting the red-haired Director, the Aquarius Director said indifferently:

「I have carefully read his file. After the Laien Blood Night, the two investigators sent by the General Bureau had a very interesting evaluation of him. 」

「They unanimously believe that this Level 3 cleaner is extremely dangerous and has stubborn concepts that are almost crazy, and he hides quite a few dangerous secrets in his heart, suggesting that the General Bureau conduct close monitoring. 」

「Additionally, in order to find evidence to topple me, he also had contact with the God of Enlightenment and has the possibility of being controlled or even parasitized by the God of Enlightenment. Accepting memory reading with you can also be considered a protection for him…」

Protect your mother!

Looking at the huge cage that was drilling out from under the venue, as well as the brain-eating demon in the cage that looked more disgusting than a lamprey, thinking that if he accepted memory reading, he would have to be licked by this thing with its tongue, Li Ang's scalp could not help but feel numb.

If this can also be called protection, I wish you to be protected by the Cleaning Bureau for a lifetime!

……

Even worse, even though the red-haired Director argued strongly, after hearing the Aquarius Director's proposal, the Cleaning Bureau Director still showed a look of being moved, especially when he heard that Li Ang had the possibility of being controlled by the God of Enlightenment, he narrowed his eyes even more unconsciously.

On one side was the possibility of the God of Enlightenment escaping, and on the other was a "so-called" Level 3 cleaner with outstanding potential. For a Director who hoped that the Cleaning Bureau would be as stable as possible, the significance of these two could not be mentioned in the same breath.

If the person who objected was not Olivia, who possessed two anomalous objects with serial numbers and whose combat power was among the top among the directors, but other branch bureau directors, he might have already made a decision directly.

「Taurus! 」

Seeing that the Cleaning Bureau Director seemed to have been persuaded, the red-haired Director had to look at the somewhat hesitant Taurus Director and seek help:

「You have seen Li Ang, and even personally forged anomalous objects for him. You should be clear about his potential. And accepting contamination from a true-god-level existence so early will definitely hurt his spirit. If he really needs to accept memory reading, I am enough! 」

「Indeed…」

Taurus Director hesitated for a moment, then nodded:

「That child's potential is quite excellent, and his personality is steady and his head is smart. He will likely become a Level 1 cleaner in the future, or even succeed a certain branch bureau director and become a force to protect humanity. It would be a pity to accept memory reading early. 」

「Not to mention anything else, after suffering contamination from a true-god-level demon, the 【Holy Spirit Pendant】 I forged for him will inevitably be affected, and the effect will likely be reduced by more than half. This is equivalent to cutting off his future in advance. 」

「So what if his future is cut off in advance? 」

After Taurus Director finished speaking, the Aquarius Director's eyebrows drooped slightly, and he said indifferently:

「Taurus, on one side is the risk of the God of Enlightenment escaping, and on the other is just a Level 3 cleaner who hasn't realized his potential. I don't think there is anything comparable. 」

「But…」

「Alright, stop talking. 」

After his body twisted slightly, the Cleaning Bureau Director's speech speed was a bit slow:

「The time flow on my side has started to slow down, and there is not much time left to contact you. And the most important thing right now is the safety of the Watchtower, so I will make a decision directly. 」

「Next, the Aquarius Director will go to accept memory reading first. If there is a problem, it goes without saying. If there is no problem after reading, then Olivia must accept reading. 」

「And if Olivia accepts reading and there is no problem, then this cleaner named Li Ang can be exempted from memory reading… Aquarius Director, please! 」 ===== CHAPTER 221 =====

And if Olivia also has no problems after accepting the reading, then this cleaner named Li Ang can be exempted from memory reading... Aquarius Director, please!"
