Chapter 461 Understanding and Not Understanding

Chapter 461 Understanding and Not Understanding
"All right."

After Director Aquarius got so angry that all the masked figures shut up, the man wearing the white snake mask in the main seat spoke:

"Hua Hu has been very thoughtful in this matter. When he realized that he might not succeed, he also tried to remind everyone. So this failure has nothing to do with him and does not prove that there is something wrong with him."

"Thank you."

After hearing the summary of "White Snake", Director Aquarius, who was wearing a flower fox mask, bowed slightly, then smiled and said:
"If you could have said this earlier, I would have been more grateful to you."

"No thanks necessary."

Ignoring the ridicule of Director Aquarius, the White Snake Mask said calmly:
"You don't have to feel resentful. Before it was destroyed, 'Number Three' left a small amount of information, telling us that there was a traitor in the King Slayer Society. The reason it failed was because someone leaked the information in advance and disclosed our information.

Although you voted against the action when it was being discussed, you were the one who created this opportunity, and you also had the opportunity to tip off the person, so you are the most suspicious, and the suspicions of others are not unreasonable."

Others’ suspicions…

You mean the message sent back by Number Three was not told to me, right?

After staring at the White Snake mask for a while, Director Aquarius asked with a smile:
"Since you think I'm okay, can you tell me what you heard from 'Number Three' so that I can hear who the traitor is?"

"can."

The White Snake Mask seemed to have a very high status in the King Slayer Society. After nodding slightly to show his agreement, he did not ask for other people's opinions, but spoke directly:

"According to the information that 'No. 3' got from the third-level cleaner, the traitor in our King Killer Society should meet two criteria. He is someone we would never expect to meet, and he has died once before."

Absolutely unexpected, and have you ever died?

After repeating these two criteria in his mind, Director Aquarius's eyes showed a hint of understanding.

No wonder I’m looking for trouble with myself today. After all, if I were to go by this standard, I, who created the opportunity for action, am indeed an “unthinkable” person.

In addition, he had indeed "died" once recently, which perfectly met the criteria of a so-called traitor. It was no wonder that these people from the King Slayer Society would doubt him, but...

"That news was told by Leon."

Looking at the masked phantoms who were still staring at him, Director Aquarius said helplessly:
"Do you believe what your opponent says? What if he is just talking nonsense?"

"Not very likely."

The black cat mask sitting opposite Director Aquarius said coldly:

"He had already captured Number Three and completely eliminated Number Three's ability to resist, so there was no need for him to lie to Number Three.

Moreover, we only learned today that 'Number Three' can transmit messages across dimensions, which also ruled out the possibility that he deliberately deceived 'Number Three' and wanted to transmit false information, so the credibility of this news is very high."

"Is such that."

"I agree with Black Cat."

"..."

Looking at the masked figures nodding one after another at the edge of the long table, Director Aquarius couldn't help but sigh deeply.

This judgment is correct from a logical point of view, but although you understand logic, you don’t understand Lyon.

This guy is extremely cautious. If he just thinks something is a little weird, he will kick me in the balls without hesitation. As long as he suspects that 'Number Three' can pass the message back, he will 100% not tell the truth.

In my opinion, the two standards of a traitor are most likely made up at random. If I think too much about it, it is even possible that they were made up by me.

"Okay, you can believe it if you want."

Faced with the King-Slaying Society, which was fooled by Leon's lies and began to frantically investigate the internal traitor, the somewhat tired Aquarius Director was too lazy to continue arguing with them, so he simply changed the subject and said, "Since my suspicion has been cleared, what about what you promised me?

After these two incidents, the Cleanup Bureau will definitely not wait any longer. I estimate that within one or two months, Director Jinniu will be promoted ahead of schedule. How are you guys preparing for what you promised me?"

"You don't have to worry about that."

The White Snake Mask said calmly:

"Although your purpose is different from ours, you have done a lot for us over the years. We will not go back on our promise to you."

"Thank you very much."

Director Aquarius nodded upon hearing this, then reached out and put on his flower fox mask.

"Do you have anything else to ask? If there is nothing else, then I will take my leave."

"Hold on."

Just as Director Aquarius was about to take off his mask and terminate this outrageous remote meeting, a shadow wearing an elk mask suddenly spoke up beside the White Snake Mask:

"When the 'Tongue Snatcher' ring on your hand broke, the small amount of power I gave you last time was activated and dragged two souls into the realm of the dead. Did you send them in?"

"Yes, I sent it in."

After hearing what the Elk Mask said, Director Aquarius couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and then said calmly:
“One of those two souls was once my subordinate. Before this, I sent her to carry out a mission where she might be captured. I was worried that she would leak my information after being captured, so I made a small insurance.

As long as she tells me where I am, it will trigger the power I got from you, and take her soul directly to the underworld. As for the remaining soul, it is probably because someone nearby happened to be taken there... What? Is there anything wrong with me doing this?"

"no problem."

Hearing this, Elk Mask shook his head and said:
"The reason I asked this is because I'm worried about whether this soul has anything to do with you. After all, you used a lot of power and deliberately preserved her soul intact. I thought you didn't want her to die completely, but since you are planning to execute the traitor, there is no problem."

"Ok?"

After hearing what the Elk Mask said, Director Aquarius was slightly startled and hurriedly asked:

"What do you mean? Something happened to her soul?"

"That's it."

Elk Mask nodded and said indifferently:
“According to my authority, the two souls should continue forward along the [Road of No Return], pass through the [Black and White Bridge] and the [Funeral Corridor], and finally land in the [Funeral Clothes Mirror Lake] that belongs to me.

But they had just been brought into the [Gate of the Dead], and before they could go any deeper, one of the souls was intercepted by the dog god guarding the door, and the soul that you sent into the dead world was also detained by it."

"???"

"As you know, the guarding dog god is usually asleep. When he wakes up, it's basically time to look for food."

Looking at Director Aquarius who suddenly frowned, Elk Mask said softly:
"Don't worry. The dog was injured by the Blood-Haired Princess some time ago. It just needs nourishment. If the two souls fall into its mouth, they will definitely be eaten very cleanly. Even if the people from the Cleanup Bureau chase after it immediately, they will not have the opportunity to reveal your whereabouts."

"..."

"That's good."

After hearing what the Elk Mask said, Director Aquarius was silent for two seconds, and then he seemed to be relieved. His frown finally relaxed again, and he smiled and nodded, then reached out and took off his fox mask.

"I have something else to do. Bye."
