Chapter 375: A flying kick!
Chapter 375 A flying kick!
"What's wrong? You have nothing to say?"
After testing the effective range of [Tongue of Honesty], he found that after most of the effects were blocked, the less lies there were in each sentence, the less the impact on his tongue would be. Leon switched to the Master of Performance and angrily scolded:
“I know that you investigators have personal grudges against the people in our Virgin Branch, so you always like to write some exaggerated things in the investigation report, but this time you really went too far!
You want to frame someone for something this big? Do you know what will happen if you succeed in framing me? How much of an impact will it have on me and Senior Emma? Where is your conscience? Has it been eaten by a dog? "
"..."
Haha, my conscience may indeed be in the dog's stomach, but ordinary dogs can't swallow your thick skin!
After trying hard for a long time and finding that the [Tongue of Honesty] had indeed lost its effect, the old investigator couldn't help but take a deep breath, then silently picked up a pen and recorded everything truthfully in the notebook.
What he had traced back with the help of the [Yicheng Pocket Watch] was definitely the truth about the death of Marquis Jinjuan. Compared to the [Tongue of Sincerity] that could be interfered with, the past that he had seen with his own eyes could not be false. He must have been the one who killed Marquis Jinjuan!
However, the [Yicheng Pocket Watch] itself has a very high Lyon value, and it cannot be activated by a mere investigator. There is also a corresponding record in the bureau. It is one of the "Three-Piece Set of Time" created by Director Aquarius using the wreckage of the King of Time as material. It should have been taken away by "Director Aquarius" now.
Therefore, as long as he dared to take this thing out, it would be equivalent to announcing to everyone that he was connected with Director Aquarius. A quick check would directly expose his identity. Compared with the big news that he was still alive, illegally killing a marquis was nothing.
In order to escape from the effects of the [Instruction List] and [Dead Realm Street Lights] and conceal it from the Cleanup Bureau, he has already given up all of his "evil souls". If even the remaining "good souls" are discovered, then he will really have nothing.
Although this kid in front of him had a lot of secrets and might hinder his next plan, it was not enough for him to sacrifice his last life for him...
Not worth it! Not worth it!
……
After weighing the pros and cons in less than a second, the old investigator... or half of the Aquarius director, tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, and asked the pre-designed questions one by one with an expressionless face.
Leon also continued to maintain his own persona, answering one question after another, and adding some personal opinions after answering. He used a lot of ambiguous targets and half-true and half-false words, which completely destroyed the little remaining effect of [Tongue of Honesty].
With the "intentional cooperation" of both parties, this aggressive "interrogation" ended unusually calmly. On the old investigator's notebook, there were only a bunch of specious replies and Lyon's remarks expressing his loyalty to the Cleanup Bureau.
"That's all for now. We will investigate diligently and come back to you when we have enough evidence... There's another thing next."
After closing the notebook filled with Leon's "loyalty" to the Cleanup Bureau, which made him feel sick at the first glance, the old investigator took out a document and handed it over with an expressionless face.
"This is?"
"This is a dangerous situation that the General Administration investigated with the help of the Watch Palace's tip and two time-related anomalies."
Disgusted by Leon's impassioned lies, the old investigator said with a dark face:
"Originally, I should have handed it over to Lady Olivia after confirming that you two had no collusion with her. But now that our investigation was not thorough enough and we have wronged you, I don't have the face to see her anymore. Please just hand it over to her!"
Tips for the Overwatch Palace?!
After hearing the old investigator's words, Leon and the other man couldn't help but look serious and solemnly took the sealed document.
"Is the information in here only available to Olivia, or can we read it too?"
After looking at the tightly sealed document, Emma couldn't help but frowned and said:
"Also, the messages given by the Watchtower Palace are usually very important. Why don't you contact Olivia directly through the Celestial Mirror, but use paper documents to deliver them?"
"I don't know about that. I'm just helping out."
After listening to Emma's question, the old investigator shook his head and said:
"As for whether you can see it... The General Administration didn't specify anyone, they just asked me to send this message to the Virgin Branch, so all members of the Virgin Branch should be able to see it."
All members of the Virgin Branch can watch it? So... I'm afraid it will be a large-scale mission with a wide impact range, requiring the mobilization of all members!
After understanding the significance of this document, Emma did not dare to neglect it. She whispered a few words and hurriedly left with the document. Leon, who had just put on a fierce expression, stood up and said to the guest in a relaxed mood:
"In that case, I won't give you any more. Please help yourself!"
“…” The old investigator couldn’t help but laugh in anger at Leon, who said “I won’t send you any more” but actually only lifted his butt slightly off the sofa and was even unwilling to get up and send him to the door. He nodded slightly and said:
"Okay! You're fine!"
After staring at Leon's face again and again, and once again firmly engraving the man who was only one step away from killing him in his heart, the old investigator, who had always been kind and had never said anything bad when annoyed, finally couldn't help but smiled strangely and said meaningfully:
"Mr. Lyon, I believe it won't be long before we meet again."
"..."
???
Why do you sound like a villain boss?
"and many more"
Although he didn't find any problems, Lyon instinctively felt that something was wrong because he had heard too many words like "XXX, we have a long way to go" in his previous life.
After looking at the other person's natural smile and feeling the mysterious smell on him, Leon hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but said:
"Don't go yet...Excuse me, is your name Camus?"
"how?"
After hearing what Leon said, the old investigator turned around and asked in surprise:
"Mr. Lyon, have you ever heard my name somewhere?"
"It does look a little familiar... Let me take a look..."
Leon eagerly approached the old investigator while talking nonsense. He put his hands on his shoulders to prevent him from moving around. Then he said with surprise in his eyes:
"It's you! You're not the one..."
Leon had just said half of his words when he suddenly raised his right leg, and then, according to the secret fighting skills taught by the female police officer, he kicked hard between the legs of the old investigator!
I remember when the chief lost his wallet, he judged that there must be something wrong within a week. Then this old man happened to come to his door, and his suspicion was incredibly high.
Moreover, his previous words had too strong a flavor of the villain boss behind the scenes. No matter how I thought about it, it didn't seem right. So no matter if there was a problem or not, it was better to give it a kick and test it out first.
Anyway, I have an immortal body, and the director's office is not far away. Even if I really kick out a BOSS, I will most likely not be killed. Therefore, this kick will do more good than harm, and it is definitely right to kick him!
……
Why did you kick me? Am I exposed?
Noticing the flying kick heading between his legs, the old investigator's eyes suddenly widened, and countless chaotic and abnormal thoughts flooded into his mind like a tide.
impossible!
My kind soul has been separated for nearly seventy years, and I have never had any contact with Aquarius Director. I have been working diligently for more than fifty years, and my entire resume is clean and traceable. How could it be exposed!
But if I wasn't exposed, why would he suddenly take action?
Could it be that... just because I wrote some negative stuff about him in the past and couldn't help but say something harsh to him when I left just now? He held a grudge against me and attacked an old man like me? He kicked me in the balls?
Isn’t... this kid such a beast?
After looking at Leon in disbelief, the old investigator wished he could explode right then and there and beat the bastard in front of him to death to see what was going on in his head.
But when he thought of his target, the troublesome immortal body of the other party, and the Blood-haired Princess who was just twenty steps away and could kill him at any time if she found something unusual, the old investigator could only bite his lips in grief and anger, and trembled as he slightly spread his legs...
"what!!!!!!!"
