Chapter 498 Joint
Chapter 498 Joint
Damn, I just said it casually.
Seeing the foreign minister looking at him in bewilderment, Leon, who spoke quickly, couldn't help but dry-cough, and then said indignantly again:
"In short, you, the Kingdom of Korok, are really going too far! You completely lack the most basic respect for a prince. I even have reason to doubt that you have no sincerity in communicating with us at all!"
No...how can you have the nerve to say that?
Having worked as the Minister of Foreign Affairs for nearly ten years, this was the first time he had encountered such an outrageous envoy. The serious middle-aged man, who had come to his senses, suddenly became furious and asked angrily:
"What on earth do you want to do!"
"I told you everything. I want to buy something, and it would be even better if I could buy the technology as well."
Pointing to the agenda book in the hands of the Foreign Minister, Lyon said without changing his expression:
"You said before that the security there is not very good. There have always been rebels roaming around. Some time ago, they even attacked the royal palace. They are really too rampant!
In order to deal with these arrogant rebels, I plan to purchase several sets of long-distance communication equipment. Once their whereabouts are discovered, they will be immediately surrounded and suppressed. By the way, I will also equip important places such as the boarding tower to avoid being attacked again and not being able to provide support in time."
So... he really came here to buy something?
Looking at Leon who was speaking seriously, the Foreign Minister hesitated for a moment, but considering his responsibilities, he had to temporarily suppress his anger and patiently said:
"Then you should wait a little longer. I haven't received any purchase application, and I'm not responsible for technology transfer. So, regarding the thing you want, I have to ask the person in charge about it. Only then can I know how many similar technologies there are and which ones can be transferred."
"Tsk, how inefficient!"
He added with a look of disdain, which made the Foreign Minister's eyelids twitch. Then, Lyon waved his hand impatiently and said:
"I agree. Go ahead and ask. I'll wait for you here... Remember to go and come back quickly. Don't keep me waiting too long!"
"..."
"Do you still have any questions?"
No problem, but if you can buy the thing this time, I will kneel down and kowtow to you!
After glaring at Lyon angrily, the Foreign Minister, who was secretly furious in his heart, snorted angrily. He was too lazy to bother with this idiot anymore, and simply walked out with the agenda book between him. He slammed the door heavily when he left, and his anger was beyond words.
Safely, we finally got him away.
When the angry footsteps of the Foreign Minister faded away, Leon, who had just looked impatient, smiled, then stood up and walked to the back of the Foreign Minister's chair, stretched out his right hand towards the filing cabinet with a lot of sundries, and politely took the initiative to greet him:
"I am Leon Ryan, a Level 3 cleaner. I am participating in this investigation mission on behalf of the Virgin Branch. I hope you two seniors will take good care of me."
"..."
In response to Lyon's polite greeting, the Foreign Minister's filing cabinet couldn't help but tremble... or rather, the green plant on the filing cabinet trembled slightly in a strange way.
Then, a scarlet onion-shaped bulb at the top of the potted plant slightly opened, revealing two surprised male faces. One of the male heads, the size of a grain of rice, struggled to stick out of the bulb and looked at Leon in astonishment.
"How did you know I was here? Did the Director tell you about my abilities in advance?"
“Director Edward didn’t say these things.” After taking a look at the strange green plant, Leon pinched its taro-like leaves with a surprised look in his eyes, shook them gently twice as a handshake, and then replied with a smile:
“But according to the agreement between him and our director, we don’t need to arrange a meeting place in advance for this mission. After I arrive in the Kingdom of Korok, two seniors will contact me.
And without prior agreement, as an envoy sent by the kingdom, there are only three places where I must appear, namely the airport where the airship lands, the meeting hall of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the residence arranged for me by the Kingdom of Korok.
However, the airport is crowded with people and the terrain is very open, which is not suitable for secret communication; and without contacting me, it is difficult to determine where the Kingdom of Korok has arranged me, so only the Foreign Minister's meeting room is the most suitable. "
I see……
After listening to Leon's explanation, the two "little flower men" hiding their cats in the green plants couldn't help but look at each other, with a hint of surprise in their expressions.
Although I had heard from the director that this third-level cleaner had incredibly strong abilities, I didn't expect that he would show off his abilities before they even had any formal contact with him, and "dig out" two of us in advance. I can only say that apart from his abnormal talent, his brain is at least quite useful.
……
It seems that my "debut" was pretty good?
After taking a look at the expressions of the two "little flower boys" and confirming that his act of showing off his intelligence had indeed achieved the desired effect, Leon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
According to the director, the Scorpio branch has sent out all its elite members this time. In addition to Director Edward leading the team himself, he also brought an elite first-level cleaner who is at the same level as Senior Emma and can replace the branch director at any time, as well as three second-level cleaners with extremely rich experience.
Although his own file was quite luxurious, its confidentiality level was a bit high. So compared to these experienced cleaners, he was still a newcomer with only three months of work experience. In order to ensure that they valued his opinions, it was very necessary for him to show off his muscles appropriately.
"Two seniors."
After completing the initial contact with the Scorpio Branch and completing the established goal of showing off his muscles, Leon politely asked:
"I have already sent the Minister of Foreign Affairs away. We still have plenty of time, so could you two please tell me what you have learned in the past few days since you arrived here?"
“I guess so…”
When the two cleaners of the Scorpio Branch were first found by this new guy who was said to be dangerous and crazy, they were still a little scared. But seeing Leon's polite attitude and listening to his polite questioning, their hearts settled down a little, and then they answered cautiously:
"Among the people who came with us, there is a Level 2 cleaner named Mona who has the ability to move freely in this city. These past two days, she took the director and Alger to the original location of the Gemini Branch and checked the situation there."
The original location of the Gemini Branch?
Leon couldn't help but blink when he heard this, and then took the initiative to ask:
"What's the situation? Are the cleanup personnel and anomalies from the Twin Branch still there?"
"A lot of the stored anomalies are gone, but most of the people are still there."
The two "young flower boys" sighed when they heard this. The middle-aged man who looked a little younger said with a confused look:
"Mona went to the archives of the Gemini Branch and found that there were six or seven mission records recently. It can be said that except for the absence of the branch chief and a few high-level cleaners, the entire Gemini Branch is still operating normally."
