Chapter 790: No Future
Chapter 790: No Future
Perhaps moved by Director Lyon's integrity, after Lyon said he would enforce the law impartially, Prince Joshua magnanimously gave up his plan to report the case. With tears in his eyes, he decided to become a cleaner and devote his life to the great cause of protecting mankind.
After taking out a contract to sell himself... and holding the Freckles Prince's wrist affectionately and helping him to press his fingerprint on it, Leon immediately gathered his anger and slapped him hard, preparing to test the observation effect of [Sign of Face-Beat], but...
"what!"
With a cry of pain, the freckled prince's left cheek turned red quickly and he covered his face, looking at Leon in confusion, while Leon looked at his hand and looked back with a puzzled look.
Isn't your face immune to damage? Why is it still hurting? Could it be that you... Oh, that's not right!
After suddenly realizing what the problem was, Leon quickly opened his badge panel and found that [Materialism] in the slot was flashing slowly and steadily.
"..."
I'm sorry, I really didn't want to hit you this time, but the effect of your damage immunity was probably partially blocked by [Materialism], so I still hurt you.
After nodding to the Freckled Prince sheepishly and apologizing, Leon once again raised his sinful right hand in the face of Joshua's horror...
"You? Aa ...
……
"Leon?"
Veronica, who was adjusting her pajamas in front of the mirror, was startled when she saw Leon suddenly appear in the dressing mirror.
After moving back a little to give Leon enough space to come out of the mirror, Queen Veronica couldn’t help but cover her chest and said with some resentment:
"Why is it either a window or a mirror? Can't you just walk through the door properly for once?"
"Next time definitely!"
After making a promise that didn't sound very reliable, Leon shook his numb right hand and asked anxiously:
"Veronica, have you seen my belt?"
"Here, it's hanging on the screen."
Queen Veronica stretched out a pink arm from under her nightgown and pointed to the screen. She looked normal, but her eyes were slightly lonely as she said:
“Leon, you’ve only been back for a day, and you’re already busy again?”
"I……"
Noticing that she was a little depressed, Leon's hand tying his belt paused slightly, and then he said hesitantly:
"I'm not in such a hurry. In fact, it's okay to be a little later..."
"No, I'm fine."
After noticing Leon's hesitation, Veronica stood up and walked over to help Leon adjust the bow tie on his chest, then raised her head slightly and looked at him, her eyes soft and she whispered:
“Just like you don’t want to come and disrupt my schedule when I’m busy, I don’t want you to delay the things you really need to do because of my feelings... Leon, I want to be your support and helper, not your trouble and... um...”
When she said this, Veronica wrinkled her nose, as if she smelled something, then raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked with a smile:
"It smells like perfumed powder... So you actually found time to meet other women before I woke up?"
what?
Leon couldn't help but be slightly startled when he heard this, and then he sniffed, but he didn't smell anything.
My goodness, Leila and I were in physical contact for only two or three minutes in the mirror world, and you can even smell this? Is your nose also abnormal?
After resisting the urge to reach out and verify this conjecture, Leon briefly described his experience, starting with the unique ability of [Bumping Miss] and ending with the test of [Sign of Face-Beat]. After listening to Leon's series of unusually enthusiastic actions when helping Joshua find a job, Veronica couldn't help but laugh out loud even though she tried to hold back.
"You really..."
After finally stopping laughing, Veronica reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then complained in a funny and helpless tone:
"Joshua has been spoiled for more than ten years. No one has ever touched him since he was a child. But now that he has a brother-in-law like you, I'm afraid he will have to get double the beatings he owed in the past."
"Then I'll be gentler next time?"
"No, let's increase the intensity!"
After winking at Leon, Queen Veronica said with a smile:
“Joshua was very cute when he was little, but as he grew older, he became more and more annoying because of his mother and uncle. Every time he saw me, his sister, he would say something very unpleasant.
I am not a broad-minded woman. If he doesn't become a cleaner, in a few years when he grows up, I will find a monkey girl across the sea and marry him directly."
"Girls?"
"Female monkey."
"..."
You really found a monkey? I thought you were joking!
"Anyway, his annoying personality is probably impossible to correct. If you spank him a few more times to wake him up, you might actually be helping him."
After summarizing the conversation, Veronica put her fingers on Leon's bow tie and pulled it up hard, then said with a smile:
"Also, as your wife, although I am willing to keep the utmost trust in you, you'd better curb your excessive charm and stop doing things that may easily lead to my misunderstanding.
If you suddenly disappear in your sleep next time, and then suddenly come back with the smell of another woman, I will go to Anna to complain... After all, I am not a broad-minded woman~"
"..."
"Okay, I was just bluffing you. I probably won't be that stingy. Go back to your business!"
After pulling Leon's bow tie down a little and returning it to its original position, Queen Veronica stood on tiptoe and kissed him hard on the cheek, then said with admiration:
"Great, you are worthy of being the man I like... Oh, right!"
When she said this, she seemed to suddenly remember something and asked curiously:
"So what did you see with the help of Joshua's anomaly? Can this new mission be completed successfully?"
"Ah."
After nodding slightly, Leon replied with a smile:
"I actually wanted to see other things, like how many children we will have in the future, who Anna will marry in the future, whether William can pass the final exam, etc., but unfortunately Joshua's anomaly doesn't seem to work well on me. My hands are sore and I can't see the second future."
"You~"
After shaking her head in a ridiculous manner, Veronica said nothing more, but stared at Leon's back tenderly, watching him walk back to the dressing mirror.
When Leon passed through the mirrors and returned to Joshua's bedroom, the restless Miss Chase came over immediately and said in panic:
“Senior Leon! Will we…will we really be hanged by the people of the Miko Country?”
