Chapter 495 Snow Owl

Chapter 495 Snow Owl
"Ding~"

Along with the subtle sound of the knob on the dashboard turning into the slot, twelve pairs of huge shields above the access area of ​​the Korok Kingdom Airport quickly slid open to the left and right, revealing the densely packed docking stations below.

Then, the airship, which had an airbag length of more than 7 meters and a suspended passenger area of ​​more than meters, was guided by a pair of docking platforms and slowly docked at Airport No. .

finally reached.

When the hatch of the VIP cabin opened and a breath of fresh air poured in, Lyon glanced at the airport filled with all kinds of steel structures, then stepped out of the cabin with a slightly bent waist, and stepped onto the ladder covered with a red velvet carpet with an expressionless face.

"Welcome, Your Excellency the Prince!"

Although due to time constraints, the kingdom's envoys did not take the secret port's special airship, but the nearest passenger airship, the reception standards of the Kingdom of Korok were still sufficient on the surface.

Even before Leon completely stepped off the airship, two teams of people were already waiting on both sides of the stairs. The moment he appeared, they greeted him in unison.

Standing at the front of the guard of honor was a young man wearing gorgeous and complicated clothes with half a mechanical clock embroidered on his chest. He strode forward and stretched out his right hand to Leon with a smile.

"Mr. Lyon, I am Andre, the third prince of the Kingdom of Korok. On behalf of the entire Korok royal family, I welcome your visit."

Without even touching the base of his palm, the young man who claimed to be the third prince shook his hand lightly, then politely but slightly forcefully said:

"Since time is tight this time and you are in a hurry to get things done, I will skip the complicated welcoming ceremony. Please take the members of the delegation to the car. The Foreign Minister is waiting for you in Administrative District 3."

If he was a real diplomatic envoy, facing this impolite "notification-type" reception, even if he didn't lose his temper on the spot, his expression would probably not be very good. However, Leon didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, and walked towards the arranged vehicle with the other members of the delegation.

It seems that Prince Lyon is a soft-tempered person who is easy to control.

After making a simple assessment of Leon's character from his reaction, the young man's originally barely friendly smile suddenly became perfunctory. Without even saying a word of introduction, he stretched out his hand towards the open door of the hovercraft and made a gesture of invitation.

It seems that this third prince is a rather proud person?

After also judging the character of the young man in fancy clothes, facing his increasingly perfunctory reception, Lyon, who didn't care about these things, was happy not to have to pretend to be nice to him. He just glanced at him, got in the car, sat down, and began to close his eyes to rest.

However, after the two of them sat down for a while, the hovercraft did not start.

Then, an attendant holding a thick book ran over from the other members of the delegation who were undergoing identity verification. He first bowed respectfully to the young man who was resting with his eyes closed, then frowned slightly and said to Leon:
"Your Excellency, may I ask why your delegation has two more members than reported?"

Facing the question from the attendant, which was obviously not polite even though he used honorifics, Leon couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and then replied:
"The extra ones are my maid and personal guard. They are not official members of the diplomatic corps, so they did not report here with the others... Is there any problem?"

"There are definitely some issues."

The attendant seemed respectful, but in fact he said rudely:
"The Kingdom of Korok is different from your country. We are much more meticulous here than your country. All travel is recorded and requires identification cards. Your envoys reported two fewer people, so we have two fewer identification cards. I am afraid it will cause you inconvenience."

"That's it."

Hearing this, Leon turned his head and looked at him, and said calmly:
"Give them my identification card first. I can use His Highness Andre's identification card, and then take out your identification card as well. This way, your mistakes due to lack of preparation will not cause us inconvenience."

"???"

"Do you still have any questions?"

Nonsense! Of course there is!
Seeing Leon "solving" the problem in just a few words and throwing the blame at him, and seeing the Third Prince opening his eyes in the carriage and looking at him with dissatisfaction, the attendant couldn't help but blush and argued unhappily:
"Your Excellency, you reported less number of people first. Tell me..." "I'm not in a good mood right now."

After looking at the robber brother and sister who had changed their clothes in the distance, Leon interrupted the attendant and informed with a slightly cold expression:
"So that's enough. Don't force me to beat you."

? ! ! !
Faced with Leon's harsh reminder, which was rude without any noble elegance, the attendant's already red face instantly turned redder, and his face turned slightly purple as he said:
"you……"

"Snapped!"

Seeing that he still refused to listen, Leon, who was already in a very bad mood after hearing about the experience of the robber brother and sister, raised his hand and slapped the waiter who was obviously looking for trouble, knocking him to the ground, and then turned to look at the young man sitting opposite the carriage.

"Your Highness Andre, is there any problem with my handling of this matter?"

"Good."

After glancing at the attendant who was covering his face on the ground and was obviously stunned by the beating, the young man in fancy clothes said impatiently:

"Don't waste time, hurry up and do what His Excellency the Prince says! The minister is still waiting!"

"Okay...Ok..."

Seeing that His Royal Highness the Third Prince had no intention of seeking justice for him, the attendant had no choice but to pick up the notebook that had fallen on the ground, cover his face and go back to work. The two people in the carriage began to close their eyes and rest again, and at the same time re-evaluated each other in their hearts.

It seems that the character of this Prince of Lyon is not soft at all, and may even be surprisingly hard...

The attendant did not get angry when he was beaten, so the third prince was not arrogant, but... simply afraid of trouble?
……

"Everyone, I asked you all to come here this time because I discovered two very dangerous pieces of information."

Just as Leon and the third prince sat opposite each other with their eyes closed, moving silently towards Administrative District No. 3, beside a long table made of bones of unknown creatures, a group of mysterious people wearing masks of various colors were looking at the main seat of the long table in unison, listening to the speech of the person at the main seat with serious expressions.

"The first piece of information is that after the failure of the last operation against Pride, the 12 Zodiac Branches of the Cleanup Bureau have all begun self-examination. The existence of our King Slayer Society may have been completely exposed."

what? ! ! !

After hearing the host's announcement, the masked people couldn't help but be in an uproar, and the Crow Mask, who had once had a conflict with Director Aquarius, said angrily:
"I've already said that Aquarius Director can't be trusted!"

The woman opposite him, wearing a black cat mask, also said hesitantly:
"I also think he's suspicious. Should we reconsider our cooperation with Director Aquarius?"

"But this is a really good opportunity, and it would be a shame to let it go."

"The opportunity is good, but the cost of failure is also high!"

"Okay, let's talk about the cooperation with Director Aquarius later. Now I have something more important to talk about."

After knocking hard on the table to silence everyone, the person whose face could not be seen clearly at the main seat turned around and looked at the girl wearing a white owl mask beside him, and announced in a steady voice:
"Snowy Owl, the situation of others is still unclear, but the 'laziness' that you are responsible for supervising has been completely exposed. The people from the Cleanup Bureau who are investigating you are most likely here."
