You show not the slightest respect for a prince—I now have grounds to suspect you have no sincerity in communicating with us at all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait… how could you possibly say that with a straight face?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having served as foreign minister for nearly a decade, this serious middle-aged man had never encountered such an absurd envoy. Regaining his composure, he could no longer suppress his fury and snapped:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What exactly do you want?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I already told you—I’m here to buy things. Better yet, if I can buy the technology too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pointing at the agenda book in the foreign minister’s hands, Li Ang lied without blinking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You yourself said our region has poor security—rebellious factions roam freely, and recently even attacked the Wang Gong. They’ve become utterly brazen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To crack down on these arrogant rebels, I plan to purchase several sets of long-range communication devices. Once their movements are detected, we can immediately surround and eliminate them. We’ll also install them at key locations like Dengshan Tower to prevent future attacks and ensure timely reinforcements.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So… he really is here to buy stuff?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Li Ang speak with such conviction, the foreign minister hesitated, then, mindful of his duties, forced himself to suppress his anger and replied patiently:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ll have to wait. I haven’t received any procurement application, nor am I responsible for technology transfer. As for what you’re asking for, I need to consult the official in charge to determine how many such technologies exist and which ones can be transferred.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tsk. Such inefficiency!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a look of clear disdain that made the foreign minister’s eyelids twitch, Li Ang waved his hand impatiently:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, go ask. I’ll wait here. Just hurry back—I don’t have all day!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…“\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have any other questions?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No questions—but if you actually buy something this time, I’ll kneel down and kowtow to you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shooting Li Ang a furious glare, the foreign minister clenched his teeth inwardly, then let out a bitter snort. He refused to waste another word on this fool, clutched his agenda book, swept out of the room, and slammed the door shut behind him—his rage unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Safe. Finally got rid of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the foreign minister’s furious footsteps faded into the distance, Li Ang—who had just been so impatient—smiled faintly. He rose, walked behind the foreign minister’s chair, and reached out his right hand toward the cluttered filing cabinet, greeting politely:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m Level-3 Cleaner Li Ang, representing the Virgin Branch in this investigation. I humbly ask for your guidance, seniors.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…“\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response to Li Ang’s polite greeting, the foreign minister’s filing cabinet trembled slightly… or rather, the potted plant sitting atop it quivered oddly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, a crimson, onion-shaped bulb at the top of the plant unfurled slightly, revealing two male faces filled with shock. One tiny male head, no bigger than a grain of rice, struggled out of the bulb and stared at Li Ang in disbelief:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How did you know I was here? Did Director Edward tell you about my ability?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Director Edward didn’t mention any of this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After studying the strange plant, Li Ang, eyes filled with surprise, pinched its taro-leaf-like foliage and gave it a gentle shake as if shaking hands, then smiled and replied:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But according to the agreement between him and our director, we weren’t required to prearrange a meeting location. Upon arriving in the Kingdom of Keloek, two seniors would contact me spontaneously.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Without prior coordination, as a royal envoy, I could only appear in three places: the airship port, the foreign minister’s conference hall, or my assigned residence.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The airship port is too crowded and too open for covert contact; without meeting me first, you couldn’t confirm where I’d been housed. Only the foreign minister’s conference hall was truly suitable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that’s how it was…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Li Ang’s explanation, the two “flower men” hidden in the plant exchanged a glance, their expressions subtly tinged with astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they’d heard from their director that this Level-3 Cleaner was astonishingly powerful, they hadn’t expected to be exposed before even making contact—showing off his intellect like this. Leaving aside his abnormal talents, his mind was clearly exceptionally sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So my debut went well?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing the two “flower men’s” expressions and confirming his intellectual display had achieved the intended effect, Li Ang felt a quiet sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the director, the Scorpio Branch had sent its elite: Director Edward himself leading the team, plus one Level-1 Cleaner on par with Senior Emma, ready to step in as branch director, and three veteran Level-2 Cleaners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though my file is impressive, its confidentiality level is unusually high. To these seasoned cleaners, I’m still just a three-month rookie. To ensure they take my opinions seriously, a little show of strength was necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Seniors.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After establishing initial contact with the Scorpio Branch and achieving his goal of demonstrating capability, Li Ang asked politely:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve sent the foreign minister away. We have time. Could you tell me what you’ve learned in the past few days?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sort of…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When first discovered by this supposedly dangerous and insane newcomer, the two Scorpio Branch cleaners had been uneasy. But seeing Li Ang’s courteous manner and hearing his polite inquiry, their tension eased slightly, and they answered cautiously:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One of our team, a Level-2 Cleaner named Mo Na, has the ability to move freely through the city. Over the past two days, she took Director Edward and Alje to the former location of the Gemini Branch to inspect the situation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former location of the Gemini Branch?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Ang blinked, then probed further:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How’s the situation? Are the Gemini Branch cleaners and anomalies still there?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Many anomalies are missing, but most personnel remain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two “flower men” sighed. The slightly younger of the two, a man with a puzzled expression, said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mo Na checked the Gemini Branch’s archives and found six or seven recent mission logs. Aside from lacking a branch director and a few high-rank cleaners, the Gemini Branch is still operating normally.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1038,"2026-06-20T03:18:35.371Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","cb152c3cd873fa413e2acd88c50400b8c65ba36b8bab18f6e84f0f728ea3cbfc","i-m-the-cleanup-crew-chapter-902","i-m-the-cleanup-crew-chapter-900",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-the-cleanup-crew-cover.jpg"]
