"..."
After reading the headlines of the newspapers that had accumulated over the few days he went to the Dream World for a business trip, the red-haired Director couldn't help but pull open the drawer suspiciously and look at the calendar placed inside.
Good guy... was the time I left really a week? Not a month? How could so many things happen in these few days?
"Li Ang!"
After slamming the desk fiercely, the red-haired Director narrowed her eyes and shouted:
"Regarding what happened these few days, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
"Uh..."
Finding that the Director seemed really a bit angry, Li Ang, who was in front of the desk, hesitated for a while, then tried to explain:
"These few days... should count as a good thing, right?
Director, look, an unidentified organization took advantage of your absence to raid the palace and prepare to slaughter the royal family members. This is a serious provocation to you, to our Virgin Branch, and even to the entire Cleanup Bureau!
And I represented our Virgin Branch and arrived in time. After a bitter battle, not only did I protect the royal family, but even the whole process had no casualties. The royal family even wrote a thank-you letter to the General Bureau. Isn't this quite good?"
"Stop playing dumb with me!"
Laughed by Li Ang's answer, the red-haired Director lowered her voice and gritted her teeth:
"This set of yours can fool the General Bureau, but it can't fool me!
You know in your heart who the remaining anomalous object holders among the rebels listen to! If you ask me, you bastard must have taken them to kidnap the MPs first, and then led the crowd to raid the palace to help the Princess usurp the throne!
As for that unidentified organization, either you discovered their plot first but didn't report it, or you didn't know of their existence at all and just happened to run into them when you made a move! Am I right?"
"..."
Good guy, you also said you don't have mind reading?
"Cough cough, that... Director, you really misunderstood."
Looking at the anger that was about to overflow from the Director's beautiful fox eyes, Li Ang blinked, then tried his best to deny:
"They are rebels. If you want to order them to accompany me to take risks, you must negotiate conditions. And the condition they put forward was to let me help kidnap the MPs. If you don't believe it, go and ask, they really requested this.
Mainly because the Bureau lacked manpower at that time, and the situation was really urgent. On one side, the palace was attacked and the royal family was about to be killed, and on the other side, it was just kidnapping a few MPs. I had no choice, right?"
"Then how did you know that the royal family would have problems?"
"My ability is forced information acquisition, which I touched from the people affected by the ability."
"What about you leading the crowd to raid the palace?"
"No way, the ability of that thing is to control people in the kingdom whose status is lower than hers. Only rebels can not be controlled by her."
"What about the anomalous object that released the ability?"
"Silenced by the other party."
"What about the remains?"
"Just ashes left, I put them in a canned bottle. If the Bureau wants to see it, it can be taken away at any time."
"What about the Princess and the old King..."
"Fatherly kindness and daughterly filial piety, the relationship is very good. Any investigator who comes can ask at will, guaranteed the old King is sincerely wanting to abdicate."
"..."
Good guy, you are ruthless!
After asking all the suspicious points he could think of and finding that they were all blocked, the red-haired Director rolled her eyes fiercely, then said unpleasantly:
"Fine, then I misunderstood you! When the investigators from the Bureau come down, remember to say the same thing. Otherwise, if you are exposed, don't come to me to fish you out!"
"Okay~"
"Also!"
Looking at Li Ang, who breathed a sigh of relief after finishing the confession, the red-haired Director couldn't help but frown and remind:
"Remember that this must not happen again! You were just lucky this time! If you hadn't met that anomalous object, or if that anomalous object was something you couldn't deal with, what would you do?"
"If I can't solve it, I'll immediately come back and call for help, or go find the things you left behind. I have two immortal bodies, so my life should still be saved. As for if I hadn't met that anomalous object this time..."
Understanding that his words could fool the General Bureau but definitely couldn't fool the Director, Li Ang pondered for a while and said frankly:
"Then I won't make a move. The rebels who kidnapped the MPs and raided the palace have nothing to do with me, a Level 3 Cleaner. And I don't have to worry about them being punished afterward.
The Princess has ascended to the throne and definitely won't pursue it. Plus, according to the rules of the Bureau, criminals who have committed serious crimes can join the Cleanup Bureau to atone for their crimes by cleaning up anomalies. Isn't this a happy ending for everyone?"
"You really thought it through."
After humming with some dissatisfaction, the red-haired Director hummed:
"What if I report it upward, or if someone in the General Bureau is serious, even if I try my best to stop it, I have to specifically investigate those anomalous object holders among the rebels? What will you do then?"
"That is Aquarius's conspiracy!"
Upon hearing the red-haired Director's question, Li Ang, who had already thought of an excuse before making a move, said firmly:
"Their anomalous objects were not given by me, they were all created by Aquarius Director. This matter can't be blamed on me. And a few nights ago, Aquarius Director once attacked Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's dream, which I managed to drive back. This matter was also reported.
Connecting these two things, we have every reason to judge that Aquarius Director has become more and more frantic after regaining his power, and actually prepared to attack the royal family!
Fortunately, you, Director, were one step ahead, sending me to lurk among the rebels in advance, gaining the trust of a group of rebel members, guiding them to the right path, and recruiting quite a few talents for the Bureau.
As for raiding the palace and so on, that was purely to lure Aquarius Director to make a move, so as to get rid of this scourge for the Bureau. Unfortunately, Aquarius Director is old and cunning, and didn't take the bait after discovering something was wrong."
"..."
Good guy... if I were willing to cooperate, this way of speaking could barely make sense...
"Also."
Looking at the thoughtful red-haired Director, Li Ang couldn't help but continue:
"As for whether the old King's abdication will make the Bureau suspicious, in fact, there is no need to worry. After all, he definitely won't hold an abdication ceremony in the near future. He has to recuperate his body anyway, so there is no such thing as a coup at all.
And he has been strongly supporting the Princess's reform for more than six years. The trend has always been for the Princess to succeed to the throne. How could it suddenly change to the Prince succeeding to the throne? Besides, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya can't do the King's work either. There is a problem at first glance!
Considering that Aquarius Director invaded Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's dream, we have every reason to suspect that this is not the first time Aquarius Director has done this, so the old King has been affected by Aquarius Director unknowingly, so this is us correcting the chaos, which cannot be considered a violation."
"..."
You are really a talent! I guess even if the General Bureau really goes crazy, forcibly opens the blockade of the headquarters, and takes out the anomalous object that reverses time, it might not be able to convict you.
After all, if you do it this way, no amount of evidence is useless. If you ask, it's that I am loyal, and as for what you are planning in your heart and why you made a move, only the roundworms in your stomach know.
"By the way, Director."
Looking at the red-haired Director, whose mouth was twitching slightly and was already speechless, Li Ang reminded carefully:
"Not only did we anticipate the enemy's opportunities this time, once again destroying Aquarius's conspiracy, discovering an evil organization with ulterior motives, and completely retiring a True God-level anomalous object, protecting the safety of the royal family members, but we also recruited quite a few talents for the Bureau.
So no matter how you think about this matter, we must ask for credit from the Bureau!" ===== CHAPTER 857 =====
