Chapter 519: What do you want to do???
Only a little better than failure... isn't that still a success?
Although the bureau's evaluation might be very low, as long as the sheep heart is obtained through investigation, the demon badge and the holy spirit badge are also brushed up, and by the way, a large pile of completely rotten scum is cleared away.
So according to his own standards, this task was simply as successful as it could be.
Hmm... but still have to hold back, must hold back, the Director is obviously quite unhappy right now, if he looks too happy at this time, he definitely won't have any good fruit to eat.
"It was my recklessness."
In order to avoid exposing his true thoughts through the "windows of the soul," Leon hurriedly lowered his head and "dejectedly" self-reflected:
"After completing the basic investigation and locking the target range to those five people, I should have immediately returned to the bureau to apply for support, and shouldn't have been arrogant enough to investigate Bobby Laien alone.
Originally I thought, even if I was accidentally discovered by him, relying on the Holy Spirit Pendant and the Witch's Broom, escaping would definitely be no problem, but his fit with that heart was too high, not only forbidding flight but even sealing the entire manor, I really had no choice..."
You didn't have no choice! There is at least a ninety percent chance you did it on purpose!
Thinking of Leon's personality of liking to meddle in other people's business, the red-haired Director glared at him angrily, while pondering the possibility of this little bastard deliberately causing trouble.
Leon was usually a quite cautious person, even in the Cleanup Bureau, he would run away without hesitation because of a little abnormality she showed.
This time he didn't come back to call for people, but directly took the risk to attack the target, most likely because he discovered a large pile of rotten things done by the Laien family during the investigation, and then couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, deliberately contacted Bobby Laien in advance, wanting to solve him with his own hands.
It's just that Bobby Laien's fit with the demon heart was indeed surprisingly high. After encountering this small-probability event, Leon's original plan to solve only him went bankrupt, and he was trapped and unable to leave, so he had to be forced to continuously expand the scale, which caused the Laien Blood Night.
As for the more than two hundred people who died, looking at the files, they were almost all guys who started with the death penalty, perfectly matching the group he hated or even loathed the most, so he probably wasn't unable to save those people, but didn't think about saving them at all!
The child has learned to be bad...
Looking at Leon, who was "dejectedly" honestly admitting his mistake, but whose body posture and muscle groups were quite relaxed, completely lacking the sincerity of admitting his mistake, the red-haired Director couldn't help but gnash her teeth in hatred.
This little bastard had only joined the Cleanup Bureau for a month, and he had already learned to jump back and forth on the bottom line of the rules, satisfying his excessive sense of justice without making mistakes, living like an old oil-slick who had been mixed for many years!
Really... who did he learn this from?
The red-haired Director, who had no self-awareness of teaching newcomers to be bad, after roughly inferring the "truth" of that night, couldn't help but glare at the pretending Leon again, but in the end, she couldn't bear to say anything.
After all, although this little bastard was hateful, he was indeed a very, very good subordinate, steady, hardworking, talented, and conscientious... except for his excessive sense of justice, compared to a bunch of weirdos in the bureau full of problems, he was already the most worry-free one.
And the people who died this time, one by one, couldn't be said to deserve it, they could only be said to be unforgivable. Even if they were hanged one by one, it would be considered cheap for them. If she had gone there, she might have had "untimely rescue" or something, so she still had to carry it for him this time, lest he really be investigated by the bureau for any problems.
Sigh... there is no such thing as an employee who is good at everything in the world, endure it, endure it.
After reciting "people were recruited by me" a dozen times, the red-haired Director, who had completed self-comfort, let out a long breath, then fiercely opened the drawer, took out several task sheets and slapped them on the desktop, looking at Leon with ill intent:
"Alright, stop reflecting first. Ai Ma helped you share quite a bit of the work you missed these days, but there are still some left. Since you have been discharged from the hospital, hurry up and make up for it!"
Let you little bastard act on your own, start messing around without communicating with me, I'll tire you to death!
"Alright!"
Hearing that there were new tasks to do, Leon, whose strength and confidence had both greatly increased, couldn't help but feel refreshed, and hurriedly took the task sheet to flip through.
The number of badges he currently possessed had reached twelve, but there were only five slots, and one was locked by 【Materialism】, which was really not enough.
And the only way to continue expanding the number of slots was to obtain more anomalous objects. These tasks were exactly what he wanted.
A large number of sheep lost in Bafu County, six herdsmen disappeared for three days after going up the mountain to search, and finally appeared in a brothel eight hundred kilometers away, claiming that they didn't know how they got there... The Morning Star Troupe under Master Wilde, although still performing normally recently, the food sent in by the theater has never been touched, suspected of having special circumstances...
An arsonist appeared in the Louse Arcade, someone witnessed him holding a large number of ignition tools, walking through several streets and alleys in the rich area at night, needing to visit witnesses to investigate his whereabouts...
After flipping through the task sheet for a while, Leon's brow couldn't help but wrinkle.
Why are they all investigation tasks again? And they don't seem to have much to do with anomalies?
Especially those herdsmen who were looking for sheep, the receipts for selling sheep and the tickets were all found, but they still said they were kidnapped to the brothel. What is there to investigate? And the remaining two things are also very absurd...
If he had to guess, the truth of these three things is probably this.
One wave is a group of old perverts who fired cannons from thousands of miles away but refused to admit it, another wave is the "upper-class" troupe that looks down on free food, and the third wave is mostly rebels who want to attack and sabotage. What anomalies can be found from these?
Swish, swish, swish, moved these three task sheets to the back, decided to ignore the first two for now, and after having the opportunity to catch that arsonist, Leon looked down at the last task sheet in his hand.
Go to the Rose Manor of the Masaini family and rescue the kidnapped only daughter of the Charle Department Store boss?
Masaini... is that the noble family that colluded with the Chengjin Sect and caused the Holy Spirit Descent incident? Speaking of which, his 【Practitioner】 badge wants to continue to be brushed, it seems he still has to start from the Chengjin Sect, just take the opportunity to inquire about the Chengjin Sect!
"I'll do this one first!"
Finally finding a task suitable for himself, Leon's tightly wrinkled brow couldn't help but relax slightly, signed his name on the task sheet and handed it back.
Go to Rose Manor to save people... hmm... it's actually quite good.
Looking at the task sheet Leon handed back, the red-haired Director nodded in agreement. Leon could be released so quickly, thanks to the efforts of that Charle Department Store boss, so letting him do this was quite appropriate.
However, just as the red-haired Director wanted to sign her name and complete the task allocation process, she unexpectedly caught a glimpse of Leon's quite expectant expression.
"..."
Masaini... Laien... Masaini... Laien... another large noble family that doesn't do anything good. This little bastard wouldn't want to make a big news for me again, right?
"The task is not urgent."
Hurriedly stopping the signature in her hand, the red-haired Director stared at Leon with full vigilance:
"Tell me, how are you planning to do this task?"
"Ah?"
Being slightly stunned by the red-haired Director's attitude, Leon thought for a while and replied:
"Since it's saving people, then I should choose to sneak in at night, investigate the situation of the Masaini family first, and then..."
And then have a Masaini Blood Night, right?
"You change it to daytime for me!"
Afraid that Leon would get excited and make a big news again halfway through the investigation, the red-haired Director, who had no bottom in her heart, hurriedly stopped him:
"And this time you don't need to investigate, the hostage's location has already been found by the bureau. You go to the first floor to find Jerry, and let his 'friends' take you directly!"
