Chapter 613

"So... you are hoping that I will 'steal' him for you and see if I can steal the anomalous object called 【Gate of the Other Side】?"

After returning from the mission to the bureau and listening to Li Ang's request, Jerry, who was looking at the middle-aged man tied up on the sofa in his office, hesitated:

"This matter might be a little difficult. It's not that it can't be done, but... we might be in a little danger..."

"?"

Facing Li Ang's somewhat confused expression, Jerry organized his language and explained:

"Although my 【Stealing Luck Hand】 has a very high status, it generally belongs to the category of 'human.' If I use the 'Li Ang value' you summarized to compare, it means it can stably take effect on targets with a Li Ang value below 60."

"According to our director's estimation, sixty Li Ang values is about the boundary between humans and gods. Intelligent life that has crossed this line is more like some kind of humanoid anomaly compared to humans. Not only can they resist part of the effect, but if the strength gap is too large, they can even find their way back along the source of the anomalous effect."

"And the Aquarius Director's Li Ang value must have exceeded sixty. So if that Gate of the Other Side was really given to this person by the Aquarius Director, then when I use 【Stealing Luck Hand】 on him, he can mostly lock onto our location, and if he's not careful, he might come directly."

So that's how it is...

After listening to Senior Jerry's explanation, Li Ang pondered for a while and then said:

"I'm not afraid of alarming the Aquarius Director. Before the director left, she promised me and Senior Ai Ma that no matter whether the inquiry succeeds or not, she will definitely be able to drag the Aquarius Director to the General Bureau to facilitate our actions here."

"I can't guarantee a long time, but at least for this week or two, even if he knows what we did, he definitely won't be able to come back... Senior Jerry, what is the success rate of you being able to steal the 【Gate of the Other Side】?"

"This is actually very high."

Jerry thought for a while and answered:

"If I use it directly on the Aquarius Director, I estimate I can only steal some fragments, and although this person's anomalous object was given by the Aquarius Director, it is still separated by a layer after all. 【Stealing Luck Hand】 can still take effect normally."

"Then steal it!"

After listening to Jerry's words, Li Ang weighed the pros and cons and the possible results, and then decisively made the decision:

"Although the director initiated an inquiry, the success rate itself is actually not high. She just wants to seize the flaws revealed by the Aquarius Director and force him to accept the memory reading of the bureau."

"If we can get the 【Gate of the Other Side】 and send it to the General Bureau as evidence, even if the person who created this thing is the Aquarius Director of the future and not the current him, it is enough to make him drink a pot!"

That really is the truth...

After listening to Li Ang's analysis, Jerry pondered a little and nodded quite approvingly.

If it can be proven that the Aquarius Director of the future dares to attack the royal family, it is equivalent to indirectly increasing the suspicion that the current Aquarius Director is also violating regulations, helping the director confirm the crime of privately manufacturing a large number of anomalous objects.

As for whether this will offend the Aquarius Director...

Their own director has long offended the Aquarius Director to death, and if it weren't for the director taking him in all these years, his life would not be as comfortable as it is now, so he shouldn't stand by and watch for any reason.

Moreover, with such hard evidence slapped on his face, and then surrounded by several directors and branch directors, even if the Aquarius Director has an immortal body, I'm afraid he will be hammered to death by that group of fierce people. And a director who is about to die, what is there to be afraid of offending?

Do it!

……

After dispelling his concerns through discussion with Li Ang, Jerry first took a deep breath, moved his right fingers twice, and then reached out toward the bosom of middle-aged Joshua, gently flicking at his heart.

Water ripples. As if the whole person had become a clear lake, the clothing near middle-aged Joshua's heart rippled slightly, silently rippling out ring-shaped water patterns. And as the water patterns spread rapidly, two blurred shadows gradually emerged from under the ripples.

Strange, why are there two things that have the greatest impact on his destiny?

After seeing the shadows that appeared under the destiny patterns, Jerry's eyebrows couldn't help but frown slightly, then he turned his head to look at Li Ang.

"Li Ang, take a look. Among these two things, which one looks more like the 【Gate of the Other Side】 given to him by the Aquarius Director?"

"Let me see."

After leaning to Senior Jerry's side and identifying the two shadows that appeared, Li Ang's eyebrows couldn't help but frown as well.

Among these two colorless shadows, the shape of the one on the left was extremely irregular, and it was beating slightly like a living thing. It was impossible to see what it was at all.

And the one on the right was slightly more regular. One could vaguely see the general shape, and it vaguely looked like a palm with five fingers slightly spread apart. Nothing else could be seen.

These two things, it seems neither of them has anything to do with a "gate," right?

"Can it be clearer?"

Unable to distinguish what these two things were, Li Ang couldn't help but say:

"At least make the outline clearer. It would be fine to have some color or something. Or can't we just take both?"

"We can't."

Jerry shook his head after hearing this:

"This thing, after all, concerns a director. It's already very difficult to do this much. As for taking both, it's even more impossible. The super-high status of 【Stealing Luck Hand】 is exchanged for the lowest number of shots. It only has an effect the first time it is used on the same target."

"Then Senior, just pick one!"

Knowing that his luck is mostly very bad, Li Ang simply handed over the choice and said to Jerry:

"The 【Gate of the Other Side】 in my impression doesn't match either of these two things, and I don't know which one is the right one, so Senior, just pick one."

"If you can pick the right one, that's naturally the best, but even if you don't pick the right one, it doesn't matter. At worst, we'll find a way to go to the General Bureau and send the unconscious Joshua directly. I guess the effect will be the same."

"Alright, then I'll pick one and try."

After thinking about it and feeling that what Li Ang said made sense, Jerry nodded and accepted the choice. After staring at the two shadows and pondering for a while, probably feeling that the thing on the left with an unclear entity was a bit creepy, he reached out and grabbed the "palm" on the right that looked safer.

"Hmm?"

When Jerry's hand touched the palm shadow, except for Joshua, who was still unconscious, the bodies of the two people in the room trembled simultaneously.

Jerry was surprised to find that he seemed to have really grasped the hand of a living person, and could even vaguely perceive the warm touch. And Li Ang was shocked to find that his right hand seemed to have been pulled by someone else just now.
