Chapter 214 Early Questioning

Chapter 214 Early Questioning
"..."

After hearing her best friend's question, the smile on the red-haired director's face froze slightly, and then she rolled her eyes at her in annoyance.

Can't you please not ask such annoying questions when I'm happy?
Also, is that what I want to be the last one? With the two and a half people left in our bureau, we can clean up the anomalies in the kingdom every year. We are already working as hard as we can, okay?

What's more, our bureau's performance this year is actually quite good. In the first half of the year, we wiped out more than a dozen dens of the Nightmare Cult, seized a large number of abnormal objects, and in the second half of the year, we even killed a descended Holy Spirit.

With these achievements as a foundation, even if the company was not ranked at the top, its performance would still be above average. Who knew that so many things would suddenly pop up at the end of the year?
……

"Perfunctory! Lazy! Shameful!"

While the red-haired director was exchanging glances with her best friend, the shadow of the director of the Cleaning Bureau in the center of the venue was still patting the marks of several branches with the worst performance, criticizing them bitterly:

"As the last barrier between humans and anomalies, you shoulder the safety of the entire race! Look at this shameful review result, I feel ashamed for you! Especially the Virgin Branch, you actually had the nerve to laugh just now!"

After patting the "Dung Beetle Lady" emblem of the Virgin Branch, the Director of the Cleanup Bureau angrily shouted:
“It’s OK for the Puppy Bureau and the Lyra Bureau. The old director of the Puppy Bureau just retired, and the new director is not familiar with the job and needs a few years of experience. When the Lyra Bureau dealt with the attack by the polar survivors two years ago, the main force was frozen in the glacier and had not been rescued yet. There is nothing we can do about the poor performance of the two bureaus.

But Olivia, what do you say? In the first half of the year, your bureau and the Long Snake Bureau launched a joint crackdown, but only five followers of the Nightmare Black Cult were arrested, but you knocked down more than 80 colleagues from the Long Snake Bureau in one go! What on earth do you, the Virgin Bureau, want to do?"

"Director, that was just an accident. It wasn't a joint crackdown. It was just that the actions of the two sides happened to collide."

Upon hearing this, the red-haired director could not help but stand up and complain:

“I took the Nightmare Black Cult operation very seriously. After the headquarters issued the order to encircle and suppress them, I directly sent Emma, ​​the strongest person in the bureau, to complete the task assigned by the headquarters as quickly as possible.

At that time, Emma had already found the gathering place of the Nightmare Worshipping Black Cult and was setting up the [Execution Platform] to arrest people, but who knew that the people from the Long Snake Bureau were also lying in ambush nearby, and their crimes were more serious than those of the cultists who were performing sacrifices, so they were injured by mistake. "

Under the cannibalistic gaze of the Chief of the Long Snake Bureau, the red-haired Chief continued to defend himself with a solemn oath:
"You know, Emma's execution platform is effective according to the degree of "crime", and the effect does not distinguish between enemies and friends. As soon as she pulled up the execution platform, the people from the Long Snake Bureau lay down first, and howled more miserably than each other. Emma had no choice but to stop, and that's how those cultists escaped into dreams.

Director, if you ask me, instead of blaming Emma for being too harsh, you should investigate the cleaners of the Long Snake Bureau to find out what crimes the people they arrested have committed and why they are lying on the execution platform faster than the cultists. "

"Okay, then this is just a misunderstanding."

Too lazy to argue with the red-haired chief, the chief of the cleaning bureau slapped the dung beetle lady's emblem vigorously and continued to question angrily:
"What about the last few incidents at the end of the year? There were unusual attacks right under your noses, and even though there were cleaners on the scene, hundreds of nobles died in one go, causing your kingdom's road and military affairs to come to a halt for almost two weeks. What do you say this time?"

"Well... the incident at Ryan's house was purely an accident..."

After scolding Leon fiercely in his heart, the red-haired chief gritted his teeth and defended himself:
“Leon hadn’t even been promoted to a full-time employee at the time. He was just a newcomer who had joined the company less than a month ago. And the other party had the heart of a near-god-level demon… well… there was really nothing we could do about the sudden situation.

Moreover, the other party blocked the manor, and he had no way to seek support from the bureau, but in the end, he not only kept most people safe, but also successfully resolved the abnormal incident. I don't think this can be considered dereliction of duty, and he should even be commended. " "Haha, you always have a reason.

Even though you failed to eliminate the anomaly in time, causing more than 200 noble casualties, you still have the nerve to say that you turned the tide and saved the safety of most people. Your thick skin is also considered an anomaly."

After making a few sarcastic remarks, the director of the Cleanup Bureau softened his expression and continued:

“However, since Leon is a newcomer and his situation is special, this result is acceptable. You can barely pass the test... But what about the royal family?

According to the agreement between us and the royal families of various countries, the royal families must provide funds and materials, and unconditionally support our cleanup activities. The branches stationed in various kingdoms are obliged to protect the safety of the royal families and prevent royal family members and important nobles from being harassed by abnormal objects.

But first the princess was attacked by an abnormal object and forgotten by the whole kingdom. Then when the cleaner from the Virgin Bureau came to visit, he had an argument with the prince and blocked him in the reception room and beat him for a long time... And judging from the king's complaint, it seems that this is not the first time he has done this?"

“This… this can also be explained.”

After mentally making another black mark against Leon, the red-haired chief continued to defend himself despite the strange looks from more than eighty colleagues:
“Although Leon did have a minor conflict with the prince, the princess had previously agreed to his proposal, so in addition to being a cleaner at the Virgin Branch, he is also a prince of the kingdom.

Without using any unusual objects, he lightly hit his wife's brother a few times because of an argument. This should be considered an internal conflict of the royal family and is not within the jurisdiction of our Cleanup Bureau.

As for the princess being attacked, although our bureau was not prepared enough, it was mainly because someone was behind the attack, and even borrowed some of the effects of the [Illusion Can]. I suspect that there may be a director behind this, and I have also submitted an inquiry to the bureau in advance. "

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, the director of the Cleanup Bureau was startled for a moment, then frowned and asked:
"You're actually planning to question a director? Olivia, why didn't I receive a report on such an important matter?"

"This one……"

The red-haired director was a little embarrassed when he heard this:

"You received a tip from the Watchtower Palace before. You have been hunting down the Old King of our ancestors for many years. It has been almost eight years since your last appearance. When we asked the directors about this, we didn't expect you to be able to project back this year..."

"Did you not expect me to come back, or did you not expect me to be alive?"

The shadow of the director of the Cleanup Bureau lowered his head upon hearing this, looked at the directors who looked a little embarrassed in the board seats, and snorted coldly:

"Don't worry, the time flow rate in the Old Land is only one fiftieth of that in your place. Even if you all die of old age, I can still live well here!
Haha, I originally wanted to contact you during the year-end review just to check on the situation in the bureau, but I didn't expect to catch up with the questioning of a director... Tell me, Olivia, which director did you catch?"
