Chapter 457 Bullying
Chapter 457 Bullying
My parents...were killed by Aquarius Director?
After hearing what Leon said, the female reporter's body couldn't help but tremble violently. Her originally unwavering soul was also disturbed by this possibility and became unstable.
Okay, that’s the right question.
Glancing at the slightly shaken soul of the female reporter, Leon couldn't help but blink, then took out a charcoal pencil and began to paint on her file.
Time passed little by little. After asking a fatal question, Leon did not continue speaking. The whole room was shockingly quiet. Apart from the rustling sound of the charcoal pencil tip scratching across the paper, the only sound was the female reporter's faint breathing.
breathe……
rustling... rustling...
breathe……
rustling... rustling...
Unconsciously, the rhythm of Lyon's pen tip and the female reporter's breathing produced a strange overlap. First, the sound of the pen tip rubbing against the paper followed the breathing, and then the two sides began to gradually converge.
In the end, it slowly turned into the sound of the pen tip, which subtly teased the female reporter's breathing. The female reporter, who was upset by Leon's questions, also subconsciously began to adjust her breathing rhythm along with the scratching sound of the pen tip.
"Hey!"
Although she knew that Leon must be "torturing" herself, she felt a little uneasy because of the rough friction sound of the pen tip, and Leon's question made her very uncomfortable. In the end, the female reporter couldn't help but speak first:
"What did you just say?"
Finally took the bait.
After hearing what the female reporter said, Leon, who had been scribbling on the blank file paper for a long time and had memorized most of "Yueyang Tower", couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He then closed the female reporter's file and answered irrelevantly:
"I've read all your files. Director Aquarius seems to trust you very much. So when he was 'making' those anomalies, he rarely hid anything from you, right?"
"..."
"Ms. Nicole, whether you answer this question or not, I know the answer."
Lifting the pen and keeping pace with the female reporter's breathing, Leon wrote "Be the first to worry about the world" and reminded her calmly:
"Moreover, the Bureau has already reached a conclusion regarding Director Aquarius's private creation of a large number of anomalies. He has been convicted long ago, and even those who should be hunted down have been hunted down. Even if you admit it, it doesn't count as betraying him."
really……
After hearing what Leon said, the female reporter bit her lower lip and then hummed imperceptibly.
Very good, the first question has been answered, so the following questions will not be a problem.
Having successfully pried open the female reporter's defenses, Leon couldn't help but curl his lips and continued:
"Since you have watched so many 'experiments', do you feel that the process of obtaining the abnormal objects yourself is somewhat similar to the process of Aquarius's 'experiments'?"
"..."
After hearing Leon's question, the female reporter clenched her fists slightly and did not speak, but the degree of her soul's shaking began to increase uncontrollably.
The extent of this wavering...it seems that she herself had similar doubts in her heart.
After taking a look at the female reporter's swaying soul, Leon blinked thoughtfully, but did not delve deeper into this topic. Instead, he took out another file and asked:
"Ms. Nicole, do you know how many people have had their lives ruined over the years because they were chosen by Aquarius Director as 'experimental' materials for creating abnormal objects?"
"..."
"There are records of over a hundred cases that can be confirmed to be related to him, and there are many more cases that cannot be confirmed to be related to him but are suspected to be his doing, which is several times more.
Moreover, these are the records of his experiments being successful, or at least close to success. Those who did not produce abnormal objects after the experiments, but whose lives were also ruined by him, cannot even be found, and the number of victims is incalculable. "..."
Ok?
When he said this, he looked at the huge guilt that suddenly burst out in the soul of the silent female reporter. Leon couldn't help but be slightly startled, then changed the subject, swallowed the "You might be one of them" that had already come to his mouth, and turned to ask sternly:
"After knowing all this, are you going to continue to keep secrets for him?"
"..."
Glancing at the female reporter whose soul was becoming increasingly shaken, Leon narrowed his eyes slightly and discovered that the "die-hard subordinate" of the Aquarius director in front of him was unexpectedly quite conscientious, and even had a relatively "clear" soul.
Clear is good!
Since she is still a good person, it would be easier to break through her defenses than to madly whip her conscience.
After adjusting his "offensive" plan, in order to dig out more information and catch the Aquarius director who was living like Voldemort and always dying in an unclean state as soon as possible, Leon decisively switched out the [Master of Performance] badge, then stood up from his chair and shouted angrily:
"I really want to punch you!"
Under the bewildered gaze of the female reporter, Leon, who had just been very "afraid of death", actually took the risk to stand in front of him, clenched his fists and asked angrily:
"You feel that Director Aquarius has done you a favor, so you have to repay him. As long as you repay him, you can die happily without any guilt. Even before you die, you will feel that you are great, right?
Bah! You are a brainless idiot! "
"..."
After taking a deep breath and slowly turning red, Leon, who was red with anger, said loudly with an expression of intolerance:
“To tell you the truth, I am also a victim of Director Aquarius’ experiments!
If it weren't for him, I would have been able to live a stable and happy life, I wouldn't have to lose my family, I wouldn't have to join the dangerous cleanup bureau, I wouldn't have to suffer so much, and I wouldn't have to endure all this now!"
After apologizing to Anna in his heart, Leon recalled the "tragic future" that the Nightmare King had shown him, trying to gather his emotions, while trembling all over, he shouted in great excitement:
"All of this is due to him. My life has been ruined by you!"
……
Could it be that... I really did something wrong by keeping the secret for him?
Looking at Leon in front of her with his teeth clenched, his face twisted, his hands clenched until white, his body trembling slightly, and his eyes filled with two parts of resentment, three parts of sadness, and five parts of heartache, the female reporter's heart couldn't help but tremble suddenly.
Under the terrifying effect of the gold-level [Master of Performance], the full twelve points of pain, relying on Leon's expression and body language, directly and fiercely broke through the eyes of the female reporter and engraved into her heart bit by bit.
At this moment, the female reporter could not remember that the person in front of her was actually a duke who was a winner in life and held a high position of power. She was shocked by the great pain that Leon performed. She looked at the great pain that was so deep that it was almost overflowing in the other's eyes, and subconsciously wanted to look away, but...
"Don't turn your head!"
After roughly grabbing the female reporter's chin and straightening her face, the "painful" Leon stared into her eyes and asked with gritted teeth:
"Aren't you afraid of death? If you're not afraid of death, why don't you dare look me in the eye?"
"I……"
Looking at Leon's bloodshot eyes, the female reporter, who was tortured by the waves of guilt in her heart, could not help but resist in a trembling voice:
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry... But the Director saved me, raised me, and helped me get revenge. I... I really..."
"Your revenge has been taken, but what about mine?"
After hearing her words, Leon, who looked "bitter and resentful", laughed angrily and asked with anger in his eyes:
"Tell me! Who should I seek revenge on? Who should I seek revenge on?"
"I...I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!"
Seeing Leon in front of her in such extreme pain, as if he was living in hell, the female reporter's defenses were finally completely broken. With red eyes and a guilty look on her face, she whispered:
"Just ask whatever you want to know. Apart from his whereabouts, I can tell you everything else!"
