Chapter 551

After drinking happily with the red-haired Director for half the night and sleeping for a day on the Director's desk wrapped in a blanket, when Li Ang, whose head was splitting with pain, opened his eyes again, the sun on the horizon had already drilled below the horizon.

"Mr. Li Ang, we are investigators from the General Bureau, responsible for investigating the 'Ambition Heart Runaway Incident' you handled. Can you answer questions now?"

"Ah?"

"..."

Looking at the man whose eyes were full of confusion and whose gaze could not find a focus, and who probably hadn't even seen clearly whether he was a human or a dog, the young female investigator could not help but frown and repeat in a louder voice:

"We are investigators from the General Bureau, responsible for investigating your affairs. The preliminary investigation has been completed. Next, please cooperate with our questioning!"

"Oh... cooperate... definitely cooperate..."

After blinking his eyes and recovering for a long time, finally understanding the situation, Li Ang felt a boost in spirit and twisted the blanket to try to get up, however...

He couldn't move at all.

Grabbing the red-haired Director's arm and trying to pry it off forcefully, but without any effect, he was still held tightly on the table by her. Li Ang could not help but reach out and push her twice, then leaned over with an embarrassed expression to remind her:

"Director! Let go quickly! The investigators are already here!"

"Director! Wake up!"

"..."

Done for...

Under the speechless gazes of the two investigators, Li Ang took a deep breath and asked with an embarrassed expression:

"I will definitely cooperate with the investigation, but can you help me? Get me out first? Also... it's best to be gentle, my ribs might be broken..."

"..."

I've been an investigator for so many years, and this is the first time I've encountered this kind of request...

After exchanging a glance with the speechless female investigator, the other male investigator, who looked old, shook his head, scribbled a few strokes on the investigation form, then walked over slowly and cautiously reached out toward the red-haired Director's arm.

"Sss!"

Just as the old investigator's palm was about to touch the red-haired Director, a sharp explosion of an object tearing through the air sounded, and the entire Director's office dimmed slightly.

Several people were shocked to find that, centered on the Director's desk, tens of thousands of bright red strands of hair extended infinitely. In just the time of a heartbeat, they formed a huge scarlet "silk cocoon," binding all living things around them tightly.

The old investigator's vital points were instantly "bitten" by thousands of hair strands that looked like living things. When Li Ang looked closely, he found that the tips of those hair strands had already seeped into his skin and flesh. He estimated that as long as the red-haired Director had a thought, they could drill straight in like a hot knife through butter and stir everything inside into pieces.

The red-haired Director, who had been full of drunkenness just a moment ago, didn't know when she had opened her eyes and was staring coldly at the two stiff investigators.

"So it's you... you startled me..."

After staring at the old investigator for a while, seeming to recognize his identity, a flash of realization appeared on the red-haired Director's face, and the scarlet hair all over the room retracted instantly, returning the Director's office to its usual appearance.

"Sorry, I drank a bit too much yesterday."

Seeing her retract the 【Slaughtering Blood Hair】, the two investigators breathed a sigh of relief together. The older investigator smiled, then retreated calmly, while the pale-faced young female investigator bit her lip and said:

"Lord Olivia, I will report what just happened truthfully!"

"Mm-hmm, report it, report it~"

After glancing at the female investigator who was making threats, the red-haired Director first nodded, then yawned indifferently, turned over, and lay back down.

If it had been two weeks ago, she would have cared a bit, but after the Bobby Laien Blood Night incident, which was so bad, happened at the end of the year, the Bureau's business rating for this year was almost certainly going to be at the bottom, so it didn't make any difference whether it was reported or not.

Anyway, I'm already at the bottom, am I afraid you'll report me for disturbing the exam order? It doesn't matter whether I have results or not at this time, just lying flat is enough! Damn it!

Seeming to be stimulated by her indifferent attitude, the female investigator bit her lip hard again, then looked at Li Ang, who had regained his freedom, with a straight face and said expressionlessly:

"Mr. Li Ang, since you are out now, can you cooperate with us and start the investigation?"

"Okay..."

"No."

Just then, the red-haired Director, who had lain back on the table, turned her back to the group and said with dissatisfaction:

"If you want to investigate, go somewhere else. Why investigate in my office? Don't you see I still need to rest? Get out, get out! I just finished a night shift, I'm sleepy!"

???

After listening to the red-haired Director's words, looking at the female investigator whose face turned from pale to red, Li Ang could not help but groan in his heart.

Director! Are you worried that my shoes don't fit, so you're preparing to have these two investigators send me a pair of small ones?

After being provoked by you, let alone if the Bobby Laien Blood Night incident was really done by me, even if I were completely innocent, these two would probably find a way to splash some dirty water on me, right?

"Hehe, let's go, let's go."

Unlike the angry female investigator beside him, the older male investigator seemed to have a gentle temperament. Not only was he not annoyed by the red-haired Director's rude expulsion, but he took the initiative to support her back and push her out, laughing and saying:

"The number of people in the Virgo Bureau is the smallest in the Zodiac Bureau. Director Olivia is usually busy with official business, so it's normal for her to want to rest after staying up all night. We really shouldn't disturb her..."

"What is she resting from?"

Seeming very unaccustomed to the red-haired Director's style, the female investigator broke free from her colleague's arm and angrily accused her without mercy:

"Look at this pile of wine bottles on the ground, do you have the nerve to say she's busy with official business?

I must report today's matter! How can someone like her, who is mentally unstable and drinks heavily in the branch all night, be the Director of a Zodiac Branch? Not to mention..."

"Enough!"

Upon hearing this, the helpless old investigator's expression changed drastically, and he scolded with a cold face:

"You don't know anything at all, this is not your business!"

"But I..."

"What is the third article of the investigation guidelines? Recite it!"

"Everything... everything is based on facts, personal emotions must not be brought into the investigation..."

"Then what should you be doing now?"

"..."

The relationship between the two investigators seemed to be similar to "master and apprentice." After being scolded, the young female investigator first took a deep breath, then bit her lip again, turned around, bowed forcefully to the red-haired Director on the table, then turned her head and walked out quickly.

After also bowing to the red-haired Director, the old investigator said kindly to Li Ang:

"Mr. Li Ang, since Lord Olivia needs to rest, let's go to your office first. Also, please don't be too nervous, this is just a routine inquiry."

"Okay."

Seeing that among the two investigators, there was still one who hadn't been annoyed by the Director, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief, then got up and followed the old investigator out of the Director's office.

After leaving the office, just as Li Ang was about to start a conversation to ease the atmosphere that had just been a bit stiff, he felt a slight itch on his chest.

When Li Ang looked down, he found a red hair drilling out from his collar, floating toward the back of the old investigator. Then, in the other party's blind spot, it twisted twice, turned into a mark similar to an exclamation point, and quietly stuck to the old investigator's back.
