Chapter 542: Chapter 477: Vacation Ti~
Can it truly fulfill wishes, yet not lead to a good outco?
After listening to the director’s information about the [Wish Compass], Leon, amidst the prompt of "your resistance to the abnormal object has greatly increased," frowned in contemplation.
According to the director’s description, using the [Wish Compass] doesn’t seem to co with a cost, but none of the abnormal objects I’ve encountered are like that. With such a powerful effect, an abnormal object should have an equally impressive price.
Therefore, if using the [Wish Compass] indeed doesn’t require any cost, perhaps the "not necessarily beautiful" result it yields is the price to be paid.
This thing... seems a bit eerie...
"By the way, Director."
After morizing the information about the [Wish Compass], Leon couldn’t help but ask:
"You seem to know a lot about the [Wish Compass]. Have you used it before?"
"I... sort of used it..."
Upon hearing this, the red-haired director hesitated, then pressed his lips together and responded sowhat succinctly:
"At the ti, the Ophiuchus Sub-bureau rebelled, forcing the bureau into a tight spot. So the bureau used the [Wish Compass] once, wanting to know if there was a way to quell the Serpentarius’ rebellion. After that... I was the one who executed that thod."
"I see..."
Seeing the red-haired director’s mood drop, Leon, who inadvertently stepped on a landmine, quickly shifted the topic:
"Well... regarding the incident where the royal palace was attacked by an abnormal object earlier, will the bureau send down investigators? When will the investigator arrive this ti?"
"Hard to say."
After hearing Leon’s words, the red-haired director glanced at him, then responded:
"The investigators responsible for the Kingdom on behalf of the bureau have basically all been offended by our people, and none of them want to take on the task of investigating us.
Among the two willing to co, Camus was proven to be a fake identity of the Aquarius Director, and the remaining female investigator, who was cursed twice by the black goat, is familiar with Camus and currently under investigation, so no one will be coming for a while."
"..."
Wow... this is even possible?
Although the purpose was only to change the topic, upon hearing the red-haired director’s answer, Leon couldn’t help but express his speechlessness:
"Does this an that the matter of
rescuing the princess will simply be glossed over? The bureau won’t even investigate?"
"As you said, you were just there to save soone in this incident."
The red-haired director smiled and said:
"If it were like Ryan’s bloody night, where there were a large number of targeted casualties, and there was suspicion of a cleaner illegally using an abnormal object, the bureau would definitely send soone to investigate to the end, and those investigators would have no choice but to co.
However, the result of the palace being attacked, besides dozens of guards being injured, did not result in any deaths, and the royal family mbers were not in any danger. So, although the matter is significant, the priority for investigation by the bureau is actually not that high."
When you think of it like that, it does make sense...
After listening to the director’s analysis, Leon couldn’t help but nod in agreent.
For the Kingdom of Lutung, the princess ascending through a coup is undoubtedly major, but for the Clean-up Bureau, who sits on the throne is not that important. What matters is whether the bloodline of the Royal Family of Travistock is uninterrupted.
Since there are no issues with the bloodline of the palace mbers, for the Clean-up Bureau, there really isn’t much that needs serious investigation. If it didn’t involve the royal family, a random report from
might have sufficed.
Hmm... this information is worth noting; it might co in handy for future rebellions.
"Leon."
Just as Leon was gauging the red lines of the Clean-up Bureau, following their response, the red-haired director softly called him, then said:
"Would you like to take a vacation in the coming days?"
"Huh?"
"Haven’t you taken on the investigation task to the Crolock Kingdom?"
Seeing Leon’s sowhat puzzled expression, the red-haired director smiled and reminded him:
"Even if you can take the Sky Clipper, this overseas task won’t be brief; you might not co back for a while.
Moreover, Mr. Taurus over there also needs a few days to prepare, and considering the discussions with the Scorpio Branch, it might even drag on for a week. So, I thought, why not take advantage of this gap and give you a few days off to spend so ti with your family."
That’s true...
After hearing the red-haired director’s reminder, Leon realized that he hasn’t been ho much lately, and since he’s going abroad soon, he indeed should spend more ti with his family.
"Thank you, Director!"
Gratefully glancing at the red-haired director, Leon asked:
"So, should I start my vacation tomorrow?"
"Today, or rather, right now."
Returning to his desk and sitting down, the red-haired director glanced at the newspaper on the table, then frowned slightly. Continuing to read while not lifting her head, she said:
"Oh... by the way, here’s another thing. Emma’s daughter has regained her body and can leave Treasure Flower Manor.
Before going on a mission yesterday, she wanted
to help enroll that child in Bridge Public School so she could accompany your younger siblings and not be at ho alone all the ti. If you’re available these two days, could you help handle her school enrollnt?"
Little Ellie can attend school now?
Recalling the shy-eyed, always wearing a large sun hat, softly speaking, sweet little girl, Leon couldn’t help but smile upon hearing the red-haired director’s words.
"Sure, no problem at all!"
"Indeed, if you handle it, there will surely be no issue."
Flipping through the Royal Mail News in her hands and glancing at the headline news, the red-haired director couldn’t help but smirk and said with a bittersweet sigh:
"For an administrative officer like , there are probably ten or eight of us in the police departnt, and even more in the entire Kingdom, not even a hundred but at least eighty, not noticeable at all!
But the honorable prince is different; things that seem difficult for small officials like , the prince probably only needs to give an order, and soone will eagerly handle them. It’s really enviable.
Hmm, but compared to power, scorching hot as it may be, the most enviable thing about the prince is that he has a good wife, harmonious and loving, truly envy-inducing~"
"..."
Oh, co on... what’s that about?
Suddenly roasted out of nowhere, Leon frowned slightly, puzzled, and asked:
"What are you trying to say?"
"Oh, nothing really."
Opening the newspaper’s inner pages, turning the headline towards Leon, the red-haired director took a sip of tea and said with a chuckle:
"Just reading the news and having so reflections."
Reading the news?
Blinking in confusion, Leon glanced at the newspaper in her hands following the movent of the red-haired director.
Royal Mail News: "Kingdom of Saio’s Royal Marriage Rejected, Princess: ’My Heart Has Been Devoured by the Lion’"
"..."
