Chapter 699: Chapter 634: Ma... What Was His Na Again...?

No way... Does Aquarius have a screw loose or sothing?!

After hastily calling over "Miss Break-in" and thoroughly questioning her from beginning to end, and confirming the information she stumbled upon, even the well-experienced red-haired chief couldn’t help feeling a bit overwheld.

If what Layla saw is real, then this matter could be... Damn it! What is he really trying to do? He even abandoned the dream of replacing the Director of Taurus to ascend to the palace and is instead causing trouble for our Virgin Branch?

This is just...

The red-haired chief, utterly puzzled, clasped his head in his hands, ssing up his smooth and shiny red hair, then firmly pursed his lips and said:

"Leon, the news that Layla heard, I must report it to the Directors imdiately, and maybe there’ll be etings afterward. You... uh... you’ve worked hard recently, so I’ll give you a few days off, but during this ti, I hope you can try to..."

"I won’t leave the Royal Capital."

Understanding his chief’s style well, Leon spoke calmly:

"If the headquarters cos up with a decision or if there’s anything else they need

to do, just have Senior Jerry contact

through the mirror world, and I’ll co back right away."

"Hmm..."

Hearing Leon’s response, the red-haired chief couldn’t help but feel slightly ward, then nodded toward him before pulling out the from a nearby cabinet to make a "call" to headquarters.

Having been granted leave, Leon comforted a sowhat bewildered Layla with a few words, then pushed the door open and left the red-haired chief’s office, only to bump into soone in the corridor with a thud.

???

Darn it, was there really soone in the corridor?

Looking at the stranger he knocked to the ground, Leon was montarily stunned and didn’t imdiately help him up but instead looked at him curiously.

This ordinary-looking young man, with average build, ordinary clothes, and ordinary appearance... soone who would be lost in the crowd, seed used to being treated this way. He just got up himself, then nodded amicably yet ordinarily, and apologized to Leon:

"Sorry, Senior Leon, I was just lost in thought and didn’t notice you coming."

Senior Leon?

Upon hearing this unusual address, Leon finally realized that besides "Miss Break-in" Layla, there seed to be another person on the new mber list given by the red-haired chief. And this person’s na... um... what was it again?

"My na is Matthew, Matthew Noterly."

Not sure if he noticed Leon’s embarrassnt or was used to people forgetting his na, the ordinary young man introduced himself, then smiled and asked:

"Senior Leon, it’s been a few days since I joined the branch, may I know where my office is?"

"..."

Sorry... After handing in the list, I completely forgot about you, and if it weren’t for bumping into you just now, I wouldn’t have rembered you at all...

"Well... Ma... Ma"

"Matthew."

"Yes, Matthew!"

After repeatedly going over this not-so-hard-to-rember na that mysteriously always slipped his mind, Leon embarrassingly confessed:

"Your office hasn’t been arranged yet... um... I’m really sorry..."

"It’s fine, it’s not your fault."

The exceedingly ordinary young man seed to have a good temper, not getting angry at being forgotten for several days, and politely inquired about the work at the Clean-up Bureau and tips for newcors.

Through ongoing exchanges with him, Leon’s mory, previously shrouded, gradually beca clearer with the deepening impression.

...

Being one of the two newcors joining the Clean-up Bureau along with "Miss Break-in" Layla, the Contamination Value of this Ma... Matthew guy was a bit lacking, yet he had a "Great Perfection" Level 2 Cleaner’s level.

His ability, in stark contrast to Layla’s, was complete opposites. If Layla’s ability made her "always at the scene," his ability was such that "no one ever knows he’s there."

This Matthew guy, hailing from a minor noble family, had an astonishingly weak sense of presence, naturally ignored or forgotten by everyone.

Before managing to pass the review to join the Clean-up Bureau, he had worked in the security bureau for a full five years, yet not once was he assigned any guarding duties, effectively heading a five-year-long salary thievery.

Although getting paid without working sounded nice, unfortunately, his salary, like his work assignnts, was often overlooked, and if late for work occasionally, even his resting bed and personal locker would be reassigned to new guards thinking no one used them.

In what might be described as a career neither started nor failed, his one and only assignnt was to guard Princess Veronica against rebel assassinations.

Yet, his doom arrived when the princess’s close guards overlooked him during a "sweep," leaving him with a nail gun standing within ten paces of Princess Veronica, only to be knocked over by rebels charging in, unable to escape in ti.

Consequently, this unlucky Matthew guy was mistaken for a rebel due to holding a dangerous hot weapon in an inappropriate place and was promptly thrown into prison...

Then, of course, everyone forgot about him.

The guards who tossed him into prison forgot about this would-be assassin, the judge responsible for trying rebels didn’t rember there was an unexamined individual, and even rebel jailbreakers failed to notice they missed a "comrade."

Having been forgotten by everyone, he often went hungry due to his extrely low presence, forcing him to repeatedly jailbreak when wardens, believing his cell to be empty, placed new inmates inside, only to return ho to fill his belly before turning himself in again.

This incredibly bizarre imprisonnt lasted eight months, during which he repeatedly broke out over ninety tis avoiding starvation, continuously adding years to his sentence until finally accumulating enough for a death penalty, thereby making it onto the Clean-up Bureau’s roster...

Well... I think I rember now, this guy is a natural-born holy assassin, but the big issue is getting soone to rember his existence and assign him tasks.

Gradually recalling the entire resu of the ordinary young man, and why he was invited to the Clean-up Bureau, Leon’s tense body finally relaxed. Embracing the spirit of "passing the torch," he began explaining his compiled [The Emma Remnant Scripture] to this promising newcor.

The good-tempered ordinary young man promptly took out a small notebook, much like Leon once did, soaking up the precious knowledge like a sponge.

After Leon shared all of the [Remnant Scripture], the ordinary young man carefully packed away his notebook, then inquired with admiration:

"Thank you, Senior Leon! I will surely rember this well... By the way, what you just explained, was it all summarized by Senior Emma?"

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Leon nodded and replied kindly:

"These were all things I learned from Senior Emma before, so there’s no need to thank . When Senior Emma returns after completing her tasks, just thank her directly."

Huh?

On hearing this, the ordinary young man was montarily taken aback, then asked sowhat puzzledly:

"Senior Leon, hasn’t Senior Emma been back for several days already? Didn’t you notice?"

"???"
