Chapter 174 Is there really one?
Chapter 174 Is there really one?
"Ok."
After hearing Leon's refusal, Jerry couldn't help but sigh, then scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment:
"Since you have something to do at home, go back first. When the director wakes up, I will ask her for leave for you..."
"No! No need!"
After hurriedly putting away the photos on the table, Leon carefully looked at the woman who came to report the case, while wondering what the relationship between her and Anna was, he said:
"My family...is not in a hurry, how about I ask you about the situation first, and then go back."
"That's fine..."
Seeing that Leon suddenly changed his mind, Jerry first raised his eyebrows in surprise, and when he noticed that Leon was looking at the woman without blinking, a smile of "I understand" suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
'Don't even think about it!'
Reaching into his pocket and stroking an unusual object that could transmit telepathy, Jerry secretly nudged Leon with his arm.
"She is already married. When she came to report the case this morning, she filled out the registration form and her marital status was written as married!"
"..."
I really didn't mean that... and married? Then Anna is...
Worried that his sister might be a hidden "thief", Leon, whose head was still aching, invited the two into the office and sat on the sofa for guests.
After placing the shopping bag containing the black goat at his feet and taking out a small notebook, Leon held up a homemade charcoal pencil and spoke politely:
"Miss, I need to know some basic information first. Can you tell me more about your name?"
"Veronica."
Looking at Leon, who had a gentle expression but a hint of alienation, the princess couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She did not directly reveal the relationship between herself and Leon, but cooperated with him to answer a few questions.
"Ok."
After confirming through the Black Goat's soul vision that she was not lying and that everything she had said so far was true, Leon secretly gave Jerry next to him an OK gesture and continued to ask:
"May I ask what kind of unusual situations you encountered? How did you know about our Cleanup Bureau?"
"As for the unusual circumstances... I have been forgotten by everyone since yesterday noon. As for why I know about your Cleanup Bureau... I have always known about your existence."
Looking at the man in front of her who was her prince yesterday, Queen Veronica said with a complicated expression:
"You may find it hard to believe, but before noon yesterday, I was still the princess of this country."
Princess?
Jerry couldn't help but frown when he heard that, and then cast an inquiring look at Leon beside him.
Isn't that right? I remember the king should have only one son, so where did this princess come from? Did she lie?
No, she wasn't lying, at least she really thought so.
After shaking his head slightly and giving Senior Jerry a negative answer, Leon, who was a little confused, rubbed his eyebrows and continued to ask:
"Then... a whole night should have passed since you discovered the abnormality. Did you contact your relatives, close friends or other familiar people last night? Are their memories unable to be restored?"
"It can be considered as a partial contact."
Princess Veronica sighed and said:
“But everyone had forgotten me, including the lady-in-waiting who had always been by my side. No matter how much I told her about the past, she didn’t believe that I was the princess. She even wanted to call for someone to arrest me. I knocked her out before I ran away.
As for my family, I can’t enter the palace now, so I naturally can’t contact my family, and I haven’t had the chance to try to awaken their memories.”
"That's it..."
The conditions are still not sufficient to judge the real situation.
After hearing what the princess said, Jerry immediately winked at Leon, indicating that he could ask a little more pointedly to see whether this woman was suffering from delusions or was really affected by the abnormal object.
After returning him a look of understanding, Leon sat up straight, stared into Princess Veronica's eyes and said, "I'm sorry, my next question may be a bit offensive, but please try your best to answer it... Have you ever thought about the possibility that you are not really a princess, but have some kind of hallucination?"
"Will not."
Having thought about this question all night, the princess, who had made sufficient preparations, shook her head and said with great certainty:
"I am very sure that I am indeed the princess of this country, and I should be able to prove it."
When she said this, she looked at Leon, who was drunk, looked tired, and had a lipstick mark on his collar. She couldn't help but frowned slightly, and then continued:
"You two, do you know anything about the Ryan family's inheritance ceremony yesterday?"
The Ryan family's inheritance ceremony?
After hearing what Princess Veronica said, Leon and Jerry looked at each other in surprise, and then nodded one after another.
"I've heard of some."
“Not only do I know, but I was there yesterday.”
After answering the question from the woman who called herself "Princess" opposite him, Leon's head suddenly felt dizzy, as if something was about to jump out of his memory.
But when he began to try to grab this part, it was as if there was a layer of invisible thick glass between them. No matter how hard he reached out, he could only touch a cold, hard, thick barrier.
“I was there yesterday.”
After looking at Leon, who had a confused look in his eyes and began to frown unconsciously, Princess Veronica felt a little hopeful, then clenched her fists and said seriously:
“Although it may be a little strange to you, the king actually has not only one son, he also has an older daughter, and that daughter is me.
Yesterday I went to Ryan Manor privately, wanting to watch the Ryan family's inheritance ceremony, but just as I entered the hall, I heard someone propose to me with the entire Ryan family as a betrothal gift. "
"and many more!"
Hearing this, Leon, whose mind was becoming increasingly confused, could not help but raise his hand and reminded with a frown:
"Let's assume that there is a princess like you. Are you sure that someone is offering the entire Ryan family as a betrothal gift to propose to you?"
"I am sure."
"But I don't remember anything like that happening."
Lyon rubbed his brows and said:
"There should be only one person who is qualified to use the entire Ryan family as a betrothal gift. You may not have seen me, but I am actually..."
"You are actually the new Duke Lionheart."
After revealing Leon's identity first, Princess Veronica looked into his eyes and spoke word by word, looking at his surprised expression:
"The person who proposed to me yesterday was you!"
"???"
"And I promised."
"!!!"
In the surprised eyes of Senior Jerry, "You kid did such a thing", Leon waved his hands repeatedly in astonishment:
"That's impossible. If you are really the princess and you agree to my proposal, then..."
Then I should have a corresponding badge, and the starting level should be silver, or even gold... Damn, it really exists!
He opened the system panel and looked at the [Prince of Robin] flashing with dazzling golden light in the slot. Leon's brain seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and it was completely messed up.
Did I really propose to her yesterday? So she is really the princess?
