Chapter 899

"Hmm, I already know about the Cleaning Bureau investigating me."

After hearing the host's reminder, the girl wearing the white owl mask nodded slightly, then chuckled:

"Compared to them sending people to investigate me, what surprises me more is that they only sent people to investigate me now. It seems that although there are many strong people in the Cleaning Bureau, their efficiency is truly terrifyingly low."

"Don't be careless."

After the girl codenamed Snow Owl finished speaking, the person at the head of the table frowned:

"Don't forget how the Ophiuchus Branch and the East Calavin Kingdom were destroyed. Although the Cleaning Bureau has rotted quite a bit in the last few hundred years, its foundation is still solid enough. If you really push them to the limit, no one knows what those people can pull out.

In addition, according to the intelligence provided by 'Little Dog', this investigation against the Kewangguo is likely a joint mission executed by two Zodiac Branches. This means that in the worst-case scenario, there might even be two human 'Pseudo-Pillar God' level people coming to find you at the same time."

"Thanks for the reminder, I will try to be as cautious as possible."

The girl wearing the white owl mask smiled upon hearing this:

"However, before you summoned us, I had already guessed that there might be people from the Cleaning Bureau coming to investigate me.

The Kewangguo under my control is almost completely closed to the outside world, and the channels are also very single, so the number of outsiders is very limited. Therefore, if there are strange guests coming to visit, it is still easy to discover.

In addition, although these few guests from the Oleson Kingdom refused to use the identity identification cards I provided, they used a method I don't understand to sneak between various blocks, successfully avoiding my supervision.

But the fact that they can frequently appear in positions that cannot appear under normal circumstances without travel records is already equivalent to shouting directly at me, telling me that they have problems."

Oleson Kingdom?

Hearing this, a member of the Luwang Society wearing a yellow ox mask beside Snow Owl couldn't help but have his expression move slightly, and suddenly said:

"That should be people from the Scorpio Branch. Although most of my believers in the Oleson Kingdom have gone into hiding and cannot transmit news frequently, they can still carry out some basic monitoring activities.

On the Scorpio Branch side, many high-level members have not carried out cleaning activities recently, including Branch Chief 'Puppeteer' Edward, Level 1 Cleaner 'Line Man' Alger, and Level 2 Cleaner 'Road Ahead' Mona. A total of 5 cleaners have not appeared.

And the method Snow Owl mentioned, which can travel directly between different blocks of the Kewangguo without the help of an identity identification card, should be the exclusive anomalous object of 'Road Ahead'. The people who sneaked into the Kewangguo are likely them."

"Not bad, since we know who the opponent is, it's much easier to handle."

After the yellow ox mask finished speaking, the person at the head of the table nodded slightly with satisfaction:

"Regarding the intelligence of the Scorpio Branch, tell Snow Owl privately later so she can be prepared. What about the others? Is there anyone else in the area you are responsible for supervising who has high-level cleaners with unusual movements?"

"..."

After the person at the head of the table finished speaking, the members of the Luwang Society around the long table pondered for a while, then shook their heads one after another, either frankly saying they didn't know, or indicating there was no abnormality.

That's a bit strange.

Looking at the members of the Luwang Society who gave no feedback, the person at the head of the table couldn't help but frown.

According to the intelligence provided by 'Little Dog', this investigation against the Kewangguo should be a joint action by two Zodiac Branches. Then why do only the cleaners of the Scorpio Branch have unusual movements?

"That... I do have some discoveries here."

At this moment, a member of the Luwang Society wearing a Thrush mask raised his hand, looking hesitant:

"However, it's not a high-level cleaner, but a Level 3 cleaner... that Li Ang·Laien accepted a diplomatic mission to visit the Kewangguo as a prince, and he has probably already arrived."

Li Ang·Laien...

Hearing this rather familiar name, the members of the Luwang Society couldn't help but fall into a brief silence.

Food Eater Li Ang, the Cleaning Bureau's hyena, the humanoid gluttony demon... The average lifespan of the members of the Luwang Society is very long, and in everyone's long life, although they have been in contact with a large number of crazy cleaners, there are not many who are as crazy as him.

Especially after learning from the Elk that this person seemed to have chosen to kill and eat the Death Dog of the Garrison just because of simple hunger, and had forged a blood feud with the entire Dead World, in the hearts of most members of the Luwang Society, the name Li Ang had already been equated with a madman.

"He is special."

After pondering slightly, the person at the head of the table made a final decision:

"Although the time he joined the Cleaning Bureau is very short, this person cannot be looked at as an ordinary Level 3 cleaner. He should be looked at as Level 2... no, look at him directly as a Level 1 cleaner, and he is the kind of elite Level 1 cleaner who can fill the position of a non-Zodiac Branch Chief.

From now on, any news about him can be raised by three levels of importance. If you find him approaching other twelve royal families and having close contact, you can activate the mask to hold an emergency meeting.

In addition, although the relationship between the Scorpio Branch and the Virgo Branch is very bad, considering that he once fought side by side with 'Puppeteer' Edward, the possibility of the Virgo Branch being dispatched is not low... Snow Owl, you must be prepared to encounter both 'Puppeteer' and 'Blood Hair Ji' at the same time!"

"I understand."

Hearing this, Snow Owl, who had always appeared quite relaxed, also became slightly serious, then asked:

"So how do you think I should respond? Should I continue to block the news to delay time, or pretend that the royal family has not been controlled? Or... while Blood Hair Ji hasn't arrived yet, find a way to deal with the Puppeteer and that Level 3 cleaner named Li Ang first?"

"It's better to try to delay time first."

The person at the head of the table thought for a while and suggested:

"We are all blocked outside by the Watchtower Palace and cannot provide you with direct support. And the danger level of Blood Hair Ji is the second highest among all branch chiefs, and her destructive power is unparalleled. Coupled with the Puppeteer whose abilities are strange and complex, a head-on collision is definitely not a good choice.

At the moment, regarding the situation in the Kewangguo, the Cleaning Bureau should have some guesses, but they haven't completely confirmed it, so they only sent people to investigate. Before the Taurus Director ascends to the palace, they should not be able to spare their hands to deal with you.

And considering the preparations on the Water Bottle side, we are actually also waiting for the Taurus Director to ascend to the palace. So the best result at present is to continue to maintain the status quo and let the Cleaning Bureau be unable to determine the situation in the Kewangguo.

With the Cleaning Bureau's current indecisive style of doing things, as long as their real bottom line is not touched, they will likely compromise temporarily and will not take the initiative to break the seemingly stable situation, but will wait until after the Taurus Director ascends to the palace. In this way, your trouble can be considered temporarily resolved."

"Good."

The girl wearing the white owl mask nodded slightly, indicating her approval of this solution, but after pondering slightly, she asked again:

"What if they really find something?"

"Then take action directly."

The person at the head of the table glanced at her upon hearing this, then said coldly without hesitation:

"The most undesirable thing in doing things is hesitation. It is natural to maintain the status quo, but if you find signs that you cannot maintain it, you must not have any fluke mentality. Whether it is the Puppeteer or the Food Eater, whoever finds you, kill him!"
