Chapter 872 It's time
"..."
Touch your sister!
After trying hard to divert his gaze away from the water mark, Leon looked at the red-haired director's hazy eyes and the pink neck that was obviously drunk, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
This is because I drank too much and started to have problems again...
"How about it?"
Looking at Leon who was silent in front of him, the drunken red-haired director kicked off his shoes, tapped the chest of drawers on his desk with his white heels, and said with a smile:
"Will you really not consider it? Just stay here for a few days for me and then..."
"Not consider!"
Relying on his extraordinary perseverance, Leon rejected the red-haired chief's invitation, took a half step back and said with a dark face:
"Stop it, I'm married!"
"So the refusal was due to being married, not lack of interest, right?"
"..."
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone~"
The drunken red-haired director raised his hand and hooked his fingers slightly at Leon. Two strands of warm red hair gently wrapped around Leon's waist like a lover's arms, dragging him back and plowing two deep grooves on the carpet.
"Okay, Leon, just promise me!"
His right hand was like a pair of pliers, tightly grasping Leon's wrist. After pressing his hand against his thigh and rubbing it twice, the red-haired director's voice became soft and charming, blinking his eyes and saying pitifully:
"You've already touched me, you can't go back on your word!"
"..."
I didn't agree, okay? And although I did touch her, it felt like I was raped... How much did you drink?
After looking at the pile of wine bottles behind the chest of drawers, Leon struggled twice and found that he couldn't get out, so he could only try to persuade:
"Commander, you are drunk."
"No! I'm not drunk!"
After finishing a classic drunken conversation, the red-haired director's eyes suddenly became misty, and he raised his face and said with tears in his eyes:
"If you touch me, you have to promise me that you will guard the Good Girls' Bureau for me...hiccups...why do I always have to stay behind? This is not fair! I want to go to the underworld, too! I want to save Emma! I don't want to stay here and wait!"
Senior Emma...
After hearing the name of Senior Emma, Leon couldn't help but fall silent for a moment, and his struggling movements became slightly weaker.
Leon was naturally thinking about Senior Emma, who had helped him a lot and was almost... one step ahead of Veronica. Ever since he knew that something happened to her, he had been thinking about rescuing her as soon as possible.
However, the situation in the Death Realm is not something that can be solved by just rushing in. He doesn't even know where she is imprisoned, and he is also on the blacklist of the Death Realm's rulers. If he rushes into the Death Realm rashly, not only will he fail to save anyone, but he will also be wasting his time.
Therefore, the only feasible way is to use his status as a director to mobilize the power of the entire Cleanup Bureau, forcing the masters of the Dead Realm to make concessions and bring back Senior Emma and the captured cleaners.
As for why I didn't bring it up at the board meeting, it was to avoid being seen as acting on impulse and affecting other directors' trust in my judgment. So I deliberately avoided the topic, but I was still quite anxious in my heart.
The director, who has a better relationship with Senior Emma, would naturally feel even worse than himself.
After taking another look at the piles of empty wine bottles and some broken glass shards swept away in the corner, Leon couldn't help but sigh, gave up struggling, and instead reached out to hug the tearful red-haired director and patted her gently on the back.
If I'm not mistaken, the director should have no living relatives.
The only Taurus director she was close to was extremely busy, and the other people in the bureau were more subordinates than friends, so in the years before she joined the Virgo branch, Senior Emma was probably her only friend.
Moreover, she was the one who signed the transfer order for Senior Emma to go to Qianfan Sea Country herself. For her, this was equivalent to sending her own friend into danger, but she was unable to rescue her due to her duties. The director naturally felt very uncomfortable.
Although she always blinks her pretty fox eyes, drinks from the bottle with a smile on her face, and looks like she doesn't care about anything, it doesn't mean that she is the kind of person who is calm enough to ignore all emotions. She is just rational enough.
But now she had drunk enough wine to activate [Wine Fairy] five or six times, and the limitations of her rationality were paralyzed. In addition, she learned from herself that she still could not take part in the action this time, so she finally couldn't control her emotions.
“Director.” After gently patting the red-haired director on the back and causing her to burp, Leon, knowing that she was feeling very uncomfortable at the moment, hesitated for a moment, then said in a gentle voice:
"If you really feel uncomfortable..."
"I don't want to cry!"
After secretly sniffing his sour nose, the red-haired director lowered his head slightly, pressed his forehead against Leon's chest, and said in a muffled voice:
"I just drank too much and feel a little dizzy... Just let me lean on you for a while..."
You are so stubborn... Come on!
Without exposing the red-haired chief's lies, Leon let her lean on his chest to calm down. While he patted her back to comfort her, he couldn't help but start to think freely.
Although I did touch the director's thigh, I was forced to do so and it was not my original intention... Well... I admit that I did want to do it a little bit... but I just thought about it and didn't put it into action. I just directly refused, but I was not as strong as her.
Also, this hug of mine probably doesn't have any other meaning. It can only be considered as...the comfort of friendship. It can't be considered as cheating, right?
Right?
Right…right?
"Leon..."
Just as Leon was experiencing moral condemnation and couldn't help but start to think about this and that, the red-haired director suddenly burped a little, then leaned into his arms and murmured:
"I suddenly remembered the leaf from before."
leaf?
Leon was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he immediately understood.
"Those seven leaves that record the different 'if lines'?"
"Uncle line? What kind of line is that?"
"Um... not the uncle line. If means what if... it means if I didn't marry Veronica, but chose someone else as my partner, and the different futures that might happen."
"Oh……"
After nodding as if he understood, the red-haired director put his arm around Leon’s waist and sniffed.
"Do you think our current posture is similar to a scene in my leaf?"
The scene in your leaf?
After hearing this, Leon recalled for a moment, and then a rather awkward look appeared on his face.
In the director's leaf, I seemed to have become a real Aquaman in order to get the Aquaman badge, and then I and the director performed a lot of identical scenes with repeated actions in different places... (Chapter 786)
"The scene you're talking about...can't be..."
"That's it."
The red-haired director burped and hummed in the bright white light:
“Leon, are we being a little sorry to Veronica by doing this?”
"Oh!"
The moment the white light appeared behind him, Leon instinctively sensed something and raised his head before a scream came from behind him.
As expected, Joshua and Miss Crash, who should have been still on the road, were sent back by Director Capricorn as expected. At this moment, Miss Crash was looking at him and the director with shock in her eyes, and after noticing his gaze, she covered her mouth with horror and shook her head desperately.
"I...I didn't hear anything! I will never tell anyone!"
"..."
I knew it!
Protruding! ! !
