Chapter 188 Three tasks
"..."
I went undercover in a rebel group? Are you kidding me!
After hearing the red-haired chief's proposal, Leon's first reaction was that she was talking nonsense again. After all, even if he omitted the identity of the Duke of Lionheart, he was already registered with the rebels.
First there was the bandaged woman who wanted to attack Ryan's family, then there was the cloned man who was undercover in the Secret Investigation Bureau of the Police Department, and then there was the sloppy old man who could make people's hearts beat faster during the succession ceremony.
All together, three owners of abnormal objects have been killed by the rebels in my hands. The reason why I asked the director for those three "protective hairs" was to prevent the rebels from attacking my family.
Even if we don't say that they have a deep hatred, it's estimated that they will never stop fighting. But now they have to join the rebels and go undercover? This is really...
Well...it's not impossible?
……
After looking at the "What If" on the table, Leon pondered it for a moment and found that this task was not as far-fetched as it sounded.
Now that I have [Ambition], my safety is undoubtedly basically guaranteed. With the information provided by Amy, as long as I find out where the rebels live, I can use [What If] to directly pretend to be a member of the rebels, try to contact those rebels who have abnormal objects, and try to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Considering that the rebels themselves have unclear relations with Director Aquarius, doing so can not only eliminate the threat from the rebels, ensure the safety of his family, help the princess regain her lost identity, but also reduce Aquarius's helpers and thwart his possible conspiracy.
Kill five birds with one stone...
After calculating the risks and benefits of the undercover mission, Leon nodded decisively and agreed.
"I took it!"
"Very good~"
After nodding slightly with satisfaction, the red-haired director said:
“Leon, the questioning of Director Aquarius can only really begin in five or six days, but the initiation time can be slightly earlier, about two or three days later.
After Mr. Taurus and I initiate the questioning, Director Aquarius will immediately rush back to the headquarters and make full preparations to deal with the internal questioning. It will probably take about two weeks from the time he is led away until the end of the questioning.
During this period, I can roughly determine his whereabouts and ensure that he will not appear at the gathering point of the rebels. And you have the protection of [Ambition], so your safety can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
So the specific time of your infiltration mission starts from two days later and ends in two weeks. If the inquiry is successful, it can be extended. If the inquiry fails, you must leave immediately. As for the mission target..."
At this point, the red-haired director thought for a moment, then tapped the table lightly with his fingertips and said:
"The first target is the grandparents and grandchildren who may have the ability to erase their memories. You need to find them first to help Princess Veronica restore her identity as soon as possible. The secondary target is to contact the other people who possess abnormal objects, find out their abilities and confirm their locations.
Before the questioning of Director Aquarius begins, I will stay in the bureau. If I go to participate in the questioning, Emma will also stay in the bureau. After determining the location and capabilities of those people, you can send the puppy that Jerry gave you back to pass on the message and take me or Emma to arrest them. "
"Okay, I took note of it."
"I'm not done yet."
The red-haired director shook his head and said:
"In addition to these two tasks, you have another hidden task. I hope you can confirm whether there is another Prince Joshua among those rebels."
what?
After seeing Leon's surprised look, the red-haired director did not explain immediately, but asked first: "Do you remember the nightmare that Prince Joshua had when you and Emma went to visit the prince?"
That weird dream about “predicting the future”?
After recalling it, Leon nodded, and then said with some doubt:
"Of course I remember... Is there something wrong with that dream?"
"It's a big problem."
After pouring the tea into the empty wine bottle and taking a big gulp, the red-haired director, who was using the tea to drown his sorrows, said with a headache on his face:
“Prince Joshua’s nightmare should be the curse of the Nightmare King on the royal family. The Nightmare King believes that compared to the false horror scenes in ordinary nightmares, these regrets buried deep in the heart are the most terrifying nightmares in a person’s heart.
Therefore, the curse given by the Nightmare King has always been to make people recall the most painful past, rather than the kind of empty, unreal false nightmare, which conflicts with the content of Prince Joshua's nightmare. "
"So... you suspect there are two Prince Joshuas?"
"Yes."
The red-haired director spread his hands and said helplessly:
“I know it sounds outrageous, but combined with Emma’s retelling of the nightmare, the only answer I can think of now is that there is another Prince Joshua who has experienced those painful futures and returned to the present which is the past for him.
As Prince Joshua grew older, his intelligence gradually matured, his ideas and personality became basically fixed, and his soul began to approach the future prince. Therefore, when the future prince suffered the curse of the Nightmare King, he, as a peer, had the misfortune to "share" this nightmare. "
"..."
It seems...it actually makes sense?
After thinking about the red-haired chief's idea, Leon found that there were actually no major flaws, and he was somewhat convinced.
"So, you think that Prince Joshua who came back from the future is probably hiding among the rebels?"
"I'm not sure yet, but judging from what the rebels did in the past, there is at least an 80% chance... After all, the future Prince Joshua has returned to the present with a lot of obsessions. It can't be that he just came back to take a look, right?"
"Makes sense."
"If that makes sense, then go get ready!"
He took out a small notebook from the drawer and wrote a few words on it. Then the red-haired director closed the notebook and handed it over, saying seriously:
"Take this to the Ministry of Police and find the First Assistant to the Minister of Public Security. He will appoint you as the warden of the death row. With this identity, you can activate the death-substitute ability of [Ambition].
In addition, your information is completely transparent to Director Aquarius, and he might tell the rebels, so it is best not to use abnormal items registered in the bureau, such as the [Witch's Broom] and [Holy Spirit Pendant] easily, otherwise your identity may be exposed.
But in order to come into contact with those rebels who possess abnormal objects, it is better for you to show some special abilities... Um... Do you have any abnormal objects or abilities that have not been registered with the bureau?"
Unregistered anomalies or abilities?
"As for abilities, there is one..."
After taking the notebook and putting it away, Leon hesitated for a moment, then glanced at the golden "Prince of the Redbird" on the badge panel, and said uncertainly:
"If the conditions are right, I seem to be able to force people to bow to me."
