Chapter 356: 1st push, 3nd push, rd push
Chapter 356: The first push, the second, the third
"..."
After listening to the red-haired chief's "negotiation", Leon couldn't help but look slightly embarrassed.
Imagining the scene where the red-haired chief, who was living a good life, threatened the square-headed old man that if he didn't help, he would tell everyone that he was his "apprentice" and ruin his reputation, Leon even felt a little guilty.
After all, although the square-headed old man had a weird personality and a foul mouth, he was still making contributions to protecting humanity even after his death, so it's not a good idea to threaten him with such a thing.
After apologizing to the square-headed old man on behalf of the director in his heart and remembering this useful way of negotiation, Leon reached out and touched the strange translucent gloves.
[Name: Screaming Hand (Suppression, Resentment, Revival)]
[Appearance: A pair of strangely shaped translucent gloves, with reinforced knuckles. The entire gloves are made of some kind of translucent stinging nettles. If you look closely, you can find a lot of very tiny barbs.]
[Abilities: Suppressing divinity, mantra of resentment, short-term recovery]
[Cost: No need to inject any power, it will take effect as long as it is worn on the hand.
But every time the fist hits the target, the fine spikes inside and outside the glove will pierce the skin of both parties, injecting a large amount of soul toxins that can suppress divinity and cause people to suffer unbearable pain.
[File: This anomaly was forged by the anomaly "Spirit of Forging". The materials are the spiritual nettles growing by the Yellow Spring River and some special soul fragments of Aquarius Director of the Cleanup Bureau. It has a strong suppressive effect on the divinity distributed in the body of the True God.
In addition, because he was angry about the shameful threat he had suffered, the "Spirit of Forging" accidentally chose the extremely penetrating nettle when selecting materials. While greatly enhancing the suppression effect, it will also bring unimaginable pain to the user and help his soul stay awake and sharp at all times.
In the first encounter, without psychological preparation, the toxin that seeps into the soul through the spirit-transmitting nettle is enough to bring the dead back to life briefly.]
[Evaluation: One punch, two screams, one is yours, the other is mine]
[Infiltration value: 0.1]
"..."
Looking at the description in the file of [Hand of Screaming] that "it is painful enough to bring the dead back to life for a short time", as well as the evaluation that "one punch, two screams", the corners of Leon's mouth couldn't help but twitch violently.
Thank you three generations of teachers for your generosity!!!
From now on, you are my only teacher in the secret art of blacksmithing! No one can stop me from helping you become famous!
After carefully putting the thing into the mirror world and warning Youha not to touch it under any circumstances, Leon, who was in a good mood after learning the "death news" of Aquarius, turned his head to look at Emma beside him and asked with a smile:
"I'm sorry, Senior Emma, I didn't hear you clearly just now... What did you say Ellie needed?"
"..."
Ellie needs a complete family, especially one who is very kind to her... and her mother, and can make up for the fatherly love she has been missing for so many years...
"What do you see me doing?"
Ignoring her best friend's look of "Why don't you get out?", the red-haired director had no idea that she was being used as a light bulb. She stayed in Leon's office openly, narrowing her eyes with a hint of malice, and urged with a smile:
"Speak, Emma~"
"Just say whatever you want to say~ I like little Ellie too, I will help her with anything she wants~"
"..."
If you can get out of here right away, you'll be helping Ellie and me! Emma's earlobes turned red without her noticing, and she glared at the mischievous red-haired director with annoyance, wishing she could use her eye darts to pierce her into a red-haired hedgehog.
But no matter how ferocious the look was, Emma couldn't say the words that were already on the tip of her tongue.
……
It's nothing, the age difference between the two is as much as ten years, even his own daughter is already the same age as Leon's brothers and sisters.
Even though Leon said he didn't care when he was drunk, if the two sides were switched, it would be like a divorced middle-aged man with children proposing to a young girl who had just reached adulthood.
Maybe Olivia could say it, but I am not as thick-skinned as her and I really can't do such a thing.
The first time I almost said it was because I suddenly heard that Ellie was able to return to normal, and I was too excited. The outburst of emotions temporarily suppressed my rationality.
After being interrupted by Olivia once, he was able to speak the second time because he relied on the belief of "cherishing the people in front of you" and the idea of giving Ellie a complete home. He barely mustered up a little courage, but was destroyed by Olivia again.
After the excitement calmed down and the courage that had been mustered was forcibly interrupted, it was already difficult to speak for the third time. What’s more, there was a jerk who was very familiar with both him and Leon standing next to him, staring at him with a mischievous look on his face...
How can anyone open his mouth to this?
She angrily glared at the red-haired chief several times, but was completely defended by Wushang. Knowing that there was no way to deal with this scoundrel, Emma could only bite her lip, endure the faintly burning earlobes and the unwillingness in her heart, and spoke in a steady voice:
"Ellie... needs companions and friends of her own age, and she also needs a normal life... Can she go to the same school as Melanie and the others?"
After speaking with some difficulty, Emma's worry for her daughter took over again. She put away her confused thoughts and said with some worry:
"Ellie is quite introverted. She has never been in contact with children of her age, let alone going to school. If she were to rush into an unfamiliar environment, I'm worried that she wouldn't be able to accept it... So if possible, could you let your brothers and sisters take care of her more?"
"no problem!"
With the news of Director Aquarius's death on her mind, the young girl Li Ang was in a very high spirit. She did not notice the game between the director and Senior Emma. She patted her chest and agreed to the request, saying:
“Let Ellie and William go to the same class! And have their seats closer together if possible!
As for Ellie's problem of making friends, although Melanie and the others' academic performance is not very good, they all get along well with their classmates. With the two of them leading them, Ellie will be able to fit in quickly."
"Thanks……"
After she thanked him sincerely but reluctantly, she could not resist her best friend's look which was two parts of excitement, three parts of teasing, and five parts of meaningful mischief.
With a blush on her cheeks, Emma subconsciously turned her head to avoid the sight of Leon and the others. She pushed open the door of the office in a somewhat embarrassed manner and ran out as if she was escaping for her life. Only a slightly trembling farewell was left in the room.
"I...I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first!"
After she left in a hurry, the two people in the room, who seemed very calm, both looked relaxed.
Just as Leon was about to ask about the details of Aquarius' death to see if there were any doubts, he felt his collar tighten slightly, and a beautiful face with gritting teeth and "laughing" came directly in front of him.
"Three days!"
After grabbing Leon's collar, the red-haired director, who had been holding back for a long time, gritted his teeth and asked with a half-smile:
"I've only been gone for three days! And you managed to coax my Emma away? Do you have to be so efficient, you bastard?"
