Chapter 684: Everyone can be ordinary!

Wow, so you are also one of the Five Palaces’ Selections?
After being lifted up from the ground by the big black fish, Leon's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the female cleaner who screamed and hugged the white fish's neck. A lot of speculations emerged in his mind in an instant.

Is this Director Aquarius's back-up plan? A spy sent by the King of Slaughter? A hostile force that has infiltrated the Cleanup Bureau? Or a true God who has successfully descended into the world?

After all, according to the director, before he joined the Cleaning Bureau, although there were cleaners who were recognized by more than one star palace, he had never heard of anyone who could reach the level of "strict selection by five palaces"!

And I just achieved the Five Palaces' Strict Selection, and now a genius who is as good as me pops up? How could such a coincidence happen in this world? This smell is wrong!

But the strange thing is that when I threw her into the lake to make a nest, my palms directly touched the skin of her calves and neck, but the [Materialism] badge did not move, proving that she should be a human being, not something else.

In addition, Director Sagittarius had mentioned before that she was a candidate specially recommended by the Aquarius Branch Chief, Balto. And since the Aquarius Branch Chief dared to recommend her to participate in such an important matter as the occult selection, it proved that he must have investigated her repeatedly, or at least confirmed that she had no major problems.

So what is she like? Is she really a wild genius?
"..."

The female cleaner, who was staring at Baiyu with her arms around his neck, felt a little uneasy because of Leon's scrutiny. She subconsciously wanted to cover her face to avoid Leon's eyes.

But when she recalled Leon's previous "offense", she suddenly felt a nameless anger rise in her heart, and then she put her hand to cover her penniless chest, and mustered up the courage to glare back.

"You...what are you looking at?"

"..."

Maybe I'm overthinking...

Looking at the female cleaner who shouted the first word with great vigor but lost all her energy in the second half of the sentence and the ending tone was so weak that it was almost inaudible, Leon couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

The feeling she gives people is... a kind of purity that has not been polluted by knowledge, and she doesn't seem like someone who could be involved in any conspiracy or scheme.

Moreover, as a genius carefully selected by the Five Palaces, several directors must have repeatedly investigated her. Since even the directors did not find anything wrong, the possibility that she had any problems was really small.

"Nothing, I just saw your arm."

After temporarily suppressing his doubts in his heart, Leon's tense demeanor relaxed, and then he asked in a gentle voice:

"This... uh... this lady."

"My name is Meili..."

After giving her name speechlessly, the female cleaner couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Leon's expression had calmed down a lot.

I don't know why, but the smile on this person's face suddenly disappeared. When his eyes stared at me intently, I felt extremely scared, and it made me feel creepy...

"Excuse me."

After nodding slightly apologetically, Leon pointed at the cleaner's arm and spoke again:

"Ms. Meili, I would like to ask, what is the pattern on your arm?"

Ahaha! Finally someone asked! It was worth it that I specially asked someone to shorten the sleeves!
After hearing what Leon said, the female cleaner's back suddenly straightened up, and then she proudly puffed out her chest, stretched out her hand to block the pattern on her arm, and then tried to tighten the corners of her mouth, and said calmly:
"Nothing, just the qualification for this selection. The day before yesterday, when I was sleeping in the dorm…dorm, it suddenly appeared on my arm, and it kept flashing. It scared me a lot."

"..."

It was confirmed that this kid was not stupid, but when he spoke and acted, he had a strong taste of inexperience. It was obvious that he had never suffered much. "Is that so? That's really remarkable."

After opening his mouth to respond perfunctorily, Leon took a look at her clothes and found that although they were sticky and wet, the material and embroidery were extremely delicate, and it was obvious that they were high-end products that were not cheap.

Either you are rich or noble, and your family is well-off?

After squinting his eyes and thinking for a while, Leon's expression suddenly softened a little, and he asked with a smile:

"By the way, how long have you been a member of the Aquarius Branch?"

"I'm joining...why are you asking?"

"Nothing, just a simple chat."

Facing the vigilant look of the female cleaner, Leon couldn't help but smile, then he reached out and patted the black fish under him and said:

"It looks like it will take us a while to get to Cancer Palace. It's really boring to just wait like this in silence, so I thought of chatting with you... By the way, I joined the Cleanup Bureau three and a half months ago, and now I'm a level three cleaner in the Virgin Branch. What about you?"

"I……"

After a slight hesitation, the little female cleaner seemed to think that this was not a secret that could not be told. She blinked her big eyes and then spoke up:

"I joined the Aquarius Division two months ago, and I'm now a Level 3 cleaner."

Two months...

Hearing that the time was even shorter than his own, Leon couldn't help but narrow his eyes again to hide the look of understanding that flashed across his eyes.

Judging from the current situation, her background should be very good. Not only does her family background is very wealthy, but she has also been well protected since she was a child. She is even a little naive about the world. So it is probably not just as simple as being rich. She should be more like "expensive", and not just ordinary expensive!
In addition, she does not seem to be a proud person, but she has a strong desire to show off, which is also a bit strange. Children who grow up in a wealthy family generally do not behave so "unbalanced".

She looked more like someone who had just left her original favorable environment, "fallen" from a status that everyone was seeking, and after joining the Cleanup Bureau and being exposed to a wider world, she was eagerly looking forward to being recognized, and she was also very confident in her own talents.

Then the way she joined the Cleanup Bureau should not be the "crime - sentencing - atonement" model, but she was discovered to have extraordinary talent and was directly recruited by the director of the Aquarius Branch "as an exception", and was placed with high hopes and a lot of preferential treatment.

Also, the brief stuttering she had when she mentioned Wugong Yanxuan's background was also very suspicious.

Let’s not talk about whether there is such a thing as a dormitory in the Aquarius Branch. The word dormitory itself is not worth a second thought, unless she originally wanted to say something else, such as…

Bedroom?

After repeatedly observing the female cleaner's flat chest and memorizing the family crest embroidery on her inner shirt when her outer shirt was soaked in water, Leon smiled and said:
"Then we are really destined to be together."

"what?"

"Look."

After rolling up his left sleeve and showing her his arm, Leon smiled and said to the shocked look on the little female cleaner’s face:
"We have both only joined the Cleanup Bureau for a few months. We are both currently Level 3 Cleaners and have also been selected by the five Star Palaces... We have a lot in common."
