"Eh?"

Just as Li Ang was shocked by the difference between a bird egg and a bird egg, the Taurus Director, who saw him rubbing it around out of thin air, not only completing the processing of the material but also directly creating an anomalous object, couldn't help but open her eyes in surprise.

Although the technique was rough and messy, and the operation process of processing the material was unbearable to look at, the general direction was correct. Li Ang was actually not high-minded but low-ability, but had really started.

And what's even more absurd is that he started, it seems not only the Taurus lineage's Anomaly Forging Secret Art, but the technique when selecting rules at the end clearly carried the flavor of the Aquarius lineage's "Anomaly Creation."

In the past, without any practice, just relying on some scattered bystander memories, he self-taught and quickly started two secret arts, and succeeded in creating an anomalous object on the first attempt...

Could it be... this child is not high-minded but low-ability, but has enough confidence in his own ability, and even like the defected Aquarius Director, is a super genius in secret arts?

Waving her hand with expectation, taking the bird egg that had become an anomalous object, and carefully checking the specific color, the smile on the Taurus Director's face became several points thicker.

"Not bad, I underestimated you."

Looking at the newborn anomalous object in her hand, although the technique was unfamiliar and rough, the internal rule ratio was balanced, the operation was smooth, and there were no obvious errors, the Taurus Director, who was overjoyed, couldn't help but praise:

"I originally thought that you had never been in contact with secret arts before, and it would be good to successfully complete the processing of the material. I didn't expect you to directly make a complete anomalous object!"

"Let me see... hmm... this feeling, the cost of use is suppressed very low, it should belong to the most basic physical strength consumption type, but it is also the most stable type for novices, which is a very wise choice."

"As for the ability, flesh rules are the main, demonic rules are the auxiliary. It seems to be a dual-ability anomalous object, and the release process is quite hidden... Not bad! Really very good!"

Relying on her familiarity with anomalous objects, the Taurus Director just held it in her hand and analyzed the 【Sensitive Egg】 almost completely.

After finishing the inspection and handing this thing back to Li Ang, the kind-hearted old lady smiled and asked happily:

"I won't guess the rest. You tell me directly, what are the two abilities of this thing?"

"Uh..."

After hesitating slightly, Li Ang answered with a drifting look:

"The first ability is corruption attribute, which can make a person's temperament become evil and look more like a demon."

"I see..."

After thinking about it, the Taurus Director nodded and said:

"Although it is a bit off-beat and there are not many scenarios that can be applied, as an incidental 'secondary ability,' it is better to have it than not... What about the main ability derived from flesh rules? What is the effect?"

In front of a kind "opposite-sex elder," Li Ang was really embarrassed to explain clearly, so he had to explain vaguely:

"As for the main ability... it's the same as what you said, it belongs to the flesh enhancement type, which can make some organs become more sensitive..."

"Tell me more specifically."

Hearing this, the Taurus Director frowned, then exhorted earnestly:

"Li Ang, not everyone is like you, who can get the information of an anomalous object by touching it. If you are also going to serve as an anomalous object craftsman in the future and forge anomalous objects for others, remember that the description must be as accurate as possible... What organ does this thing strengthen?"

"Egg... and only the one on the left..."

Egg? What egg?

At first, she didn't quite understand Li Ang's meaning. The Taurus Director originally wanted to ask again, but after seeing his stammering appearance, she understood the specific meaning of this "egg," and the kind smile couldn't help but freeze on her face.

"Just... that?"

"Just that..."

"..."

"..."

The old and the young looked at each other in silence for a long time. Finally, it was the Taurus Director who broke the silence. She turned her head away, unable to bear looking, and said with a strange expression:

"Also... okay. Although the result... is a bit too original, I watched when you operated, this is indeed the Taurus Secret Art."

"Hmm... so your talent in this secret art is still very good. In the future, even if you don't get the recognition of the Taurus Star Palace, you should be able to become a top-notch forging craftsman."

"Keep it up! We old people have also reached the time to slowly step down. The future of the Bureau depends on you young people."

"Thank you for your love, I will definitely work hard."

After taking the bird egg and leaving the Taurus Director's seat, returning to his own Director's seat, the red-haired Director, who had already changed the performance monument, asked curiously:

"Li Ang, what reward did Taurus give you?"

"In the case that I wasn't chosen by the star palace, she made an exception and taught me the complete version of the Taurus Secret Art."

Because he didn't bring her when he went to "ask for wine" from the Taurus Director, Li Ang, who felt a little guilty, hurriedly tried to change the subject:

"Director, compared to my reward, what happened on Aquarius' side? Did he find the hair I secretly put on him?"

"Not yet."

Upon hearing Li Ang's words, the red-haired Director couldn't help but look at him with appreciation, then answered softly:

"Although the distance in space is too far, making me lose control of that hair, I can still vaguely feel that it is moving in the direction of the Kroke Kingdom."

"After the Bureau completes its self-inspection and decides who should pursue and capture Aquarius, this hair you secretly put on him will definitely give him a big surprise."

That would be great!

Upon hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

In the past, he could only be considered a minor character in Aquarius' eyes, but after a verbal argument and almost being drained by the True Word Scale, he must have been marked in Aquarius' heart. The sooner Aquarius is caught, the safer his family will be.

"By the way, Li Ang."

Just as Li Ang was trying hard to recall the scene at that time, wondering if there was any other way to make the Aquarius Director finish sooner, the red-haired Director seemed to remember something and exhorted:

"The sun is about to set. You, Jie Rui, and Prince Watching Qiaoshuya will be sent back to the capital the moment the sun sets."

"I still need two or three days to finish dealing with things here. Although Auntie Ai Ma has cleared her suspicion, it will take a day or two to return. Tomorrow, only you and Jie Rui will be in the Bureau..."

"I understand, Director." Upon hearing the red-haired Director's words, Li Ang's expression suddenly became serious, and he nodded and promised:

"I will definitely cooperate well with Senior Jie Rui, work hard to maintain the situation in the Bureau, and ensure that no trouble occurs before you return."

"Uh... your determination is really great, but what I actually wanted to say is not this..."

In Li Ang's stunned expression, the red-haired Director said somewhat embarrassedly:

"Many of the newspapers and magazines I ordered are paid every two weeks, and tomorrow happens to be the last renewal period. So... can you go to the post office opposite the Sun Newspaper and help me fill out the subscription form?"

"Okay..."

Defeated by this overly grounded request, the great hero Li Ang, who had just defeated the Aquarius Director's conspiracy and successfully protected the world, couldn't help but nod in speechlessness, agreeing to run an errand for his Director.

A moment later, as the sun set, the Bureau's headquarters entered the dark side of the world. The presence of the three of them lacked the support of sunlight, their figures twisted slightly, and then they turned into countless fine light spots, disappearing from the Bureau's headquarters.

At the same time, in the secret room of the palace where the 【Tongwen Stone Slab】 was stored, the three people who had disappeared for most of the day appeared again, falling head over heels onto the wool carpet.

"Finally back..."

After sighing sincerely, Jie Rui, who had the best physical fitness, was the first to get up, then helped Li Ang, who was still dizzy, up, and gave him a thumbs up.

"Amazing, Li Ang! This time, not only did you send the key evidence, forcing the Aquarius Director to accept memory reading, but even after being targeted by him, you were able to retreat unscathed!"

"Seriously, I have a premonition now that you will definitely be an incredible big shot in the future. Maybe in my lifetime, I can even see you sitting on the director's seat!"

"Ugh... just luck..."

After closing his eyes and relaxing for a while, getting rid of the head-over-heels imbalance, Li Ang shook his head and said:

"The one who really found the key evidence was your 【Stealing Luck Hand】, Senior. I just caught Prince Watching Qiaoshuya who came back from the future."

"As for retreating unscathed in front of Aquarius, that's purely luck. If I were even a little bit off, I would have been smashed to pieces by him... Speaking of which, what's wrong with that idiot prince? Why hasn't he said a word?"

"Let me see..."

Upon hearing Li Ang's question, Senior Jie Rui let go of Li Ang, who had already stood firm, and looked at the freckled prince on the carpet. He found that although everything was normal, his eyes looked extremely depressed, as if he had suffered some unspeakable major blow.

Could it be... am I really a loser?

Earlier, when Li Ang was telling the Director about the situation, he didn't deliberately hide it from the freckled prince. At this time, although Watching Qiaoshuya didn't fully understand what had happened, and didn't understand anything involving palaces and gods, he had roughly heard most of it.

The things in his dreams were another future that had actually happened. And the clown-like self in the future, after losing almost everything, was lured by the Bureau's Aquarius Director, used that so-called door to return to the past, created a rebel faction trying to change the future, but ended up becoming a tool controlled by the Aquarius Director, played in the palm of his hand.

And the villain next to him who had repeatedly punched and kicked him was entrusted by his sister Veronica, not only caught his future self, restored everyone's erased memories, but also successfully defeated the Aquarius Director's conspiracy, which could be called the nemesis of both his selves.

What's worse is that he seems to be his brother-in-law in name, and might even marry Veronica in the future, truly becoming a member of the royal family...

Damn it! Why?

After sitting up from the ground, the freckled prince struggled out of his doubt about his own ability, glared at Li Ang, and said:

"You bastard... uh..."

Looking at Li Ang's right hand, which flicked slightly, Watching Qiaoshuya, who already knew this was the starting move for a slap, instinctively swallowed the curse that was about to blurt out. He supported his body with both hands, moved backward, and said fiercely with not much momentum:

"The Bureau has an agreement with various kingdoms not to allow members to interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom, so your marriage proposal to Veronica doesn't count! As long as I complain a few more times, they will definitely stop you!"

"..."

You've made a lot of progress, you've actually learned to be cowardly.

After pondering the freckled prince's words and finding that although the tone was not very polite, it hadn't reached the point where he should be beaten, Li Ang couldn't help but click his tongue with regret. He didn't bother to continue dealing with him and turned around directly, preparing to leave the secret room.

However, at this moment, he heard the freckled prince behind him suddenly say:

"Hey! Do you want to consider cooperating with me?"

???

Good fellow, is this something Watching Qiaoshuya can say? Could it be that he was replaced in such a short time?

Be calm in doing things, be rational in making judgments, try to win over capable people, make interest exchanges based on what everyone values most, and even deal with enemies when necessary...

Looking at Li Ang, who turned around in surprise, the freckled prince, who had grown up a lot after the changes, recalled the teachings he had disdained in the past, forcibly suppressed the past "grudges," and promised calmly:

"The reason you leaned toward Veronica is either for power, wealth, or beauty. I can give you all of these, and even give you more than she can!"

"And compared to Veronica, I have one advantage she absolutely doesn't have... I know what happened in the future!"

Looking at Li Ang, who didn't leave but looked at him in surprise, Watching Qiaoshuya, who felt for the first time that he was leading the conversation, couldn't help but curl his lips and reveal a confident smile.

I can do it!

Even if I was just an incompetent and arrogant clown in the original future, everything hasn't happened yet! With the memory of the future, as long as I work hard from now on, I will definitely be able to change it!

As for this guy in front of me, excluding the Bureau's background, he's just a lucky empty-shell duke.

In the past, I just wanted to kick him away, of course I would be bitten hard by him. But as long as I throw out a few bones stained with oil, he will wag his tail at me, like a...

"If you hadn't said it, I would have almost forgotten."

Looking at the freckled prince with a confident face in front of him, Li Ang couldn't help but reveal a kind smile, then took out paper and pen from his small mirror and handed them over, saying with a full face of smiles:

"Come! Write down everything you know about the future! Especially the intelligence about the Kroke Kingdom, not a single line is allowed to be left out!"

"For example, what mineral data the Kroke Kingdom's sniffers have mastered; why they want to invade the kingdom, when they invaded the kingdom, and what the Bureau's Aquarius Director did in the future... Write down as much as you know about these key intelligence points, not a single line is allowed to be missed!"

"You?!!!"

"What about you?"

After checking Watching Qiaoshuya's soul and confirming that he hadn't been replaced, Li Ang immediately straightened his face. In the freckled prince's shocked and angry gaze, he first pointed to the paper and pen in his hand, then shook his right hand.

"Either write that, or take this, choose for yourself!"
