Chapter 528: Invitation

~7 min read 1,387 words

Not knowing that Leon had another misunderstanding about her, she walked upstairs with a feeling of being on pins and needles, entered the director's office quickly, and explained Leon's intention at a very fast speed.

"This... I'm afraid it's not very convenient."

After listening to the female police officer's words, the scarred strong man put down the map of the capital in his hand and said with a look of embarrassment:

"Your Cleanup Bureau's permission has always been the highest in the entire Police Department. If it were just a small matter like interrogating rebels, I definitely wouldn't refuse.

But you require the interrogation process to be kept secret, without leaving any written records, and without allowing anyone else to know, which is not quite possible.

Although that prisoner is not the mastermind, she participated in the assassination of the Princess after all. If I really promise you to contact her privately, I am not very easy to explain to the people above."

"..."

If you say so... it's indeed true.

After listening to the scarred strong man's explanation, Leon couldn't help but frown.

Involving a major case like the assassination of the Princess, the Secret Investigation Bureau is indeed not convenient to open a back door for him. But according to the director's statement, matters related to anomalous objects are best kept strictly confidential, and the fewer people who know, the better.

After all, in this quite idealistic world, "understanding" and "believing" themselves are a kind of power. The more people who know about the Cleanup Bureau and the existence of anomalies, the stronger the anomalies in the jurisdiction will be.

If the normal interrogation process is really followed, with people from the Secret Investigation Bureau accompanying throughout, and written records, the "anomalous concentration" in the Virgin Cleanup Bureau's jurisdiction will definitely rise slightly in the near future. This kind of thing must be avoided as much as possible, but looking at the other party's attitude...

"Director, it's fine to use this set of excuses to fool others, why fool the people I brought?"

Just when Leon was pondering how to persuade the scarred strong man, the female police officer on the side opened her mouth with unkindness:

"After the old director retired completely some time ago, you have the final say in the Secret Investigation Bureau, and the Minister of Public Security who is in charge of our Police Department now is your distant in-law. No one can make things difficult for you at all.

As for the Cabinet, the Academy, and the Prime Minister above, they are now staring at the Ryan family and tearing each other apart. The case of assassinating the Princess, even

"......"

Having his excuse for stalling exposed to his face by his own capable subordinate, the scar-faced strong man couldn't quite keep his composure. After glancing at Li Ang, who wore a strange expression, he gave two slightly awkward, dry coughs and said:

"Ahem... although that's how it's said, I haven't been in this position for long, after all. It's not good to act too recklessly; I have to first..."

"Give it a rest! You're just afraid of taking responsibility!"

After rolling her eyes at the scar-faced strong man, the policewoman, who knew her leader's personality very well, curled her lip in annoyance and said:

"You clearly have such strong work ability and your methods aren't bad either, but every time you encounter an issue, you shrink back. You aren't even willing to step up for something as small as a sesame seed... Lend me the warrant!"

"Fine~ I'll lend it to you, I'll lend it to you!"

After being snapped at by the policewoman, the scar-faced strong man was surprisingly not angry. Instead, he took out the director's warrant and handed it over. Then, bearing that tough-guy face covered in large scars, he said with a deep expression:

"If something really goes wrong in the end, you must not..."

"Just say I stole it!"

"It's a deal!"

After the policewoman took the warrant and hurried downstairs with Li Ang, the scar-faced strong man remained silent for a while. He then took another identical warrant from his drawer, stood up, and quickly left his office......

With the warrant from the Director of the Secret Investigation Bureau, Li Ang and the policewoman naturally had a smooth journey. Aside from the necessary registration, they encountered almost no obstruction and went all the way down to the dungeon of the Secret Investigation Bureau, where they successfully met their target.

"You talk to her first; I'll go outside and keep watch for you."

After looking at the female prisoner, who appeared quite haggard with bloodshot eyes, the policewoman couldn't help but shake her head. She greeted Li Ang and left the interrogation room, bringing a small stool to sit outside the door to prevent anyone from going in and disturbing them.

However, even with her keeping watch, Li Ang did not lower his guard. Instead, he reached out and pressed against the Black Goat's horns, using his soul vision to repeatedly check the surrounding situation. After confirming that no one was eavesdropping, he sat down on the chair and spoke to the silent female prisoner:

"I've come to see you this time because I want to tell you some good news."

"I know."

The female prisoner nodded, a trace of heartfelt satisfaction appearing on her slightly pale face.

"Bobby Bobby Laien is dead, isn't he? And there's turmoil in the Bobby Laien family; almost all the core members of the clan are dead. The Bobby Laien family is finished!"

???

Upon hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked:

"Did Miss Yisha tell you all this?"

"No, although that little girl is naive, she is quite disciplined when it comes to these matters. Aside from not being able to help herself and telling me the news of Bobby Bobby Laien's death, she said almost nothing else."

It wasn't the policewoman who told her?

Hearing the female prisoner's words, Li Ang couldn't help but be slightly stunned, then frowned and said:

"Then how did you know about these things?"

"Strictly speaking, it should count as me 'seeing' it with my own eyes."

After pointing to Li Ang's pocket containing the 【Blood-Stained Plague Bandage】, the female prisoner curled her lips and said:

"That night, the bandage my husband left behind was wrapped around your wrist. Although you were constantly suppressing it, as the owner of this bandage, I could still perceive some of the things happening around me... for example, wherever you went, people from the Bobby Laien family died."

When she said this, a smile finally appeared on the female prisoner's face. She asked back with a look of great pleasure:

"Although I couldn't directly see what was happening, as long as a small piece of skin was missing from your body, someone from the Bobby Laien family would suddenly die. So, those people weren't all killed by Bobby Bobby Laien; at the very least, a small half of them were killed by your own hands, right?"

"......"

I was careless. I didn't expect that bandage to actually have some sensory capabilities... It really is... I thought I had covered it up perfectly, but before the investigators from the headquarters even arrived, I had already leaked half of it.

Warning himself in his heart never to underestimate any anomalous object, Li Ang couldn't help but look at the female prisoner with "furrowed brows" and say:

"Do you mean to frame me by saying all this?"

"Of course not."

The female prisoner smiled and shook her head:

"You helped me get my revenge; I'm too grateful to you to harm you. As for whether it's framing... don't you know clearly in your heart?

Heh, we people worked hard for several years, and all we did was assassinate some mid-level members. But the commotion you caused in one night was more effective than all our efforts over three or four years!"

After slowly finishing these words, the female prisoner, who was handcuffed to the chair, did not continue the topic. Instead, she stared at Li Ang, who was frowning in front of her, and invited him earnestly:

"Seriously, are you interested in joining us?"
