Chapter 678
Nicole... that female reporter from the Sun, a Level 1 Cleaner of the Gemini Branch, the dark pawn left in the capital by the Bottle Director?
After asking some detailed questions and confirming that the Nicole the Prime Minister's wife mentioned was the female reporter he knew, Leon narrowed his eyes and habitually guessed the other party's ability.
I remember when she was undercover with the rebels, she was the daughter of the old Owen couple, but now she has become the niece of the Prime Minister's wife. These two identities are clearly conflicting, yet the memories of the people involved have no errors.
So if I'm not mistaken, she should have an anomalous object that can "intervene" in other people's memories and forcibly become the other party's family member.
Looking at the effect of this thing, it is estimated that it was one of the other failed experiments before the Bottle Director created 【If】. It probably cannot completely "replace" a person, but can only forcibly "add" a target relative's identity, and since the effect is very practical, it was left to her.
Tsk... a pair of hands that can touch anything, a sheep tail that can eliminate aura and provide soul vision, and an unknown anomalous object that can forcibly add a relative's identity... Thinking about it carefully, these abilities are simply those of a natural spy.
After secretly noting down this important intelligence, Leon did not fully believe the Prime Minister's wife's words, but looked into her eyes and asked seriously:
"Mrs. Martha, for such an important matter, you should have come to our bureau immediately, right? If you hadn't met me today, were you planning to pretend you didn't know anything forever?"
"I... I cannot go to your bureau..."
Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister's wife bit her lower lip, looking ashamed:
"When Peony and I were... when we met once, we were discovered. If I go to your bureau again, he will expose the affair between Peony and me. And the reason I was able to avoid the influence this time was because of the token of love Peony gave me... the gift he gave me. I... I can't tell Stephen either.
Plus, when I was probing that Nicole, she also discovered something was wrong. She found me to talk once, saying she just wanted an identity that would make it easier for her to do things, and that she wouldn't hurt me or my family, telling me to shut my mouth and not say anything, otherwise she would..."
"Understood."
Upon hearing this, Leon's impression of the female reporter became very bad, and he frowned:
"You were threatened by her, right? If you dare to speak out, she will hurt you, or your family?"
"Uh... no..."
The Prime Minister's wife shook her head and said sheepishly:
"She said if I exposed her identity, she would tell everyone about the secret meeting between me and Count Oren and Marquis Rune..."
"..."
6...
Unable to complain about the Prime Minister's wife's overly chaotic private life, Leon, who was stunned, was silent for a while, then promised expressionlessly:
"I will investigate this matter as soon as possible, but during my investigation, our previous conversation must be kept confidential. Don't even tell the Prime Minister, and don't rashly contact that Nicole. Do you remember?"
"I remember."
Seeing Leon give a definite answer, the Prime Minister's wife felt a joy in her heart, then reached out to rub the corner of her skirt, her eyes full of expectation:
"Um... I have another question I want to ask, Peony, he recently..."
"Shh! Silence!"
Really not wanting to continue getting involved in this lady's private life, Leon turned his head to look at the Prime Minister who had finished his speech and was walking this way, and took the initiative to stand up and greet him.
"Prime Minister, we meet again." "So it is Your Grace."
After squinting his eyes hard and recognizing the identity of this "pretty boy" who was chatting so happily with his wife, the Prime Minister's originally unpleasant expression softened slightly, and he greeted him with a smile:
"I didn't expect you to come to the Bridge Public School parent-teacher meeting too... This is..."
"My sister Anna, and my brother William who is in Class 1, and my sister Melanie."
"So it is Miss Anna."
Seeing that Anna was a bit reserved, the fat Prime Minister smiled kindly, did not salute particularly enthusiastically, but reached into the pocket on the right side of his belly, took out six or seven milk candies and handed them over, then winked at the two little ones.
"Since it's a private encounter, I won't make it too formal... I just happen to have some candies with me, consider it a meeting gift. I hope these two healthy little lions don't mind."
"You are too kind."
As Anna accepted the candies for her brother and sister, the fat Prime Minister took out a silk handkerchief, wiped the sweat from his head, and asked with a smile:
"Just now on stage, I saw Your Grace and Martha chatting very happily. Unfortunately, I was interrupted after I came over. I wonder if I can join in on such an interesting topic."
"Actually, it's not a very interesting topic."
Upon hearing the Prime Minister's words, the Prime Minister's wife's expression tightened, and she became visibly nervous, while Leon smiled indifferently, switched out 【Performance Master】, and casually covered it up without changing his expression:
"We were just chatting about educating children. I marveled at your long-term vision in education, and then exchanged some interesting stories about educating children with Mrs. Martha."
Just that?
You look very good, your temperament is so outstanding, and you are in a high position at a young age. You are exactly the type Martha likes the most... Did she not try to do anything to you?
Staring at Leon's eyes, he found that both his gaze and demeanor were extremely natural, and he didn't seem to be lying. The Prime Minister's tightened heart relaxed by half, but when he turned his head and saw his wife's relieved expression, his eyes narrowed slightly again.
"Interesting stories... It's a pity, although I spoke quite well on stage, because I am busy with work, I basically haven't interfered much with the education of the three children at home..."
After sighing slightly, the fat Prime Minister said with a smile:
"Exactly, I am still very interested in interesting stories in this regard. Why don't you tell me another one?"
"..."
Still probing... Good heavens, so this Prime Minister is actually a jealous person in private?
Feeling the slight malice full of sourness from the fat Prime Minister, Leon looked speechlessly at the Prime Minister's wife and the jealous Prime Minister in front of him, and not wanting to cause trouble, nodded slightly:
"Telling it again is fine... It's mainly about the survey form from a few days ago. The content filled out by my brother and sister is very interesting..."
?!!!
Seeing Leon reach for the folded survey form on the table, seemingly preparing to unfold it directly, Melanie, who was happily sucking on a milk candy, couldn't help but jump in shock, then secretly kicked William's leg.
Hurry, hurry, hurry! It's your turn! Hurry!
Sigh... what a bother...
After looking helplessly at his kicked and dirty pant leg, William swallowed the milk candy he hadn't finished sucking, jumped off the chair, and under the surprised eyes of the adults of both families, took out a small ring tied with cloth strips and grass leaves, and put it on the chubby ring finger of the Prime Minister's youngest daughter without question.
"Will you marry me?"
Looking at the small ring on her finger, Charlotte, who was also sucking on a milk candy, laughed happily, then hugged William back without hesitation, kissed him hard on the cheek, and stuck the small half of the unfinished milk candy on it.
"I will!"
