0170 Exchange & Door-to-door
"I don't see anything wrong with you."
Hearing this, the red-haired director shook his head and said:
"I have some perceptual abilities, but I'm better at fighting, something that may involve the occult and the science of curses, and that sheep knows far more than I do.
Also, although the sheep is weaker now, it is a well-informed demon after all, and it has an extremely long lifespan, and when it comes to understanding this aspect, there are few people in the entire Cleanup Bureau who can surpass it.
So if even he doesn't see any problems, then you hardly have to think about the bureau, and at least none of the people I can invite, including the directors of Taurus, are likely to solve your problems."
「……」
Isn't that the end?
After listening to the red-haired chief's words, Leon's heart suddenly cooled in half.
Even if he has the body protection of "Emma's Leftovers", after all, he can only learn the prudence of Emma's predecessors, and he can't learn her immortal body.
If you continue to encounter anomalous events at this frequency, no matter how cautious you are, in the face of an endless stream of anomalous objects, sooner or later you will overturn like today.
Not to mention, the lead shot today alone is very fatal, as long as the person who shot the slingshot at him from three kilometers away, when he shoots, his hand is slightly raised up and thrown, and he is not only the shoulder blade that is broken.
"Are you thinking about the guy who wounded you with a slingshot?"
From Leon's somewhat frightened eyes, after vaguely guessing what he was thinking, the red-haired director comforted him:
"Don't worry, you have my hair on you, my hair is extremely sensitive to the smell of death, once you are attacked enough to be deadly, you will be immediately stopped by it, although that person's ability restrains you, there is still a way to avoid it."
"What if it's not an immediate death, but poisoning, curses, bloodshed, and the like, the ability to let me die little by little?"
Leon, who knew the general effect of [Killing Blood Hair], pondered for a moment, and then added with some concern:
"Anything else, or draining the air around me, forcibly moving me to the bottom of the ocean or underground, or not killing me, but making me age, something like that.
There are also abilities that do not directly harm the body, but target the soul, spirit, will, etc., which can bypass the protection of [Killing Blood], right?"
"...... right"
Looking at Leon who had successfully killed "himself" by proposing seven or eight ways to bypass [Killing Blood Hair] in just a moment's effort, the red-haired director smacked his lips a little speechlessly, feeling as if he had seen a plus version of Emma.
To be reasonable, while it's good for a cleaner to be a little cautious, little Leon seems to have been a little too influenced by Emma......
"Why don't you stay in the bureau for the rest of this time?"
After thinking about it for a while, the red-haired director spoke:
"The two investigators have already gone back, and if there is no problem with the investigation, the heart of the sheep will be sent back in the next two days, and then you can go to the prison of the Ministry of Police, and put up the position of warden in charge of those death row inmates who have committed the most heinous crimes.
Although it is not as immortal as Emma's, with something of the [Heart of Ambition] level to save your life, as long as you don't encounter some particularly extreme anomalous abilities, you should be able to successfully survive it."
That's right! And sheep's heart!
After listening to the red-haired director's reminder, Leon couldn't help but feel a little bit of light in the bright future.
Although he is not like Bobby Lane, he directly puts his heart in his body, but with the blessing of the gold badge [I am a demon], it is still no problem to use the death substitution ability of the sheep heart normally, as long as he does not encounter too extreme situations, he should be able to hold on until he is truly strong.
Oh yes, and the sheep's stomach!
After remembering another anomaly in the "Haggis Series", Leon, who was eager to quickly improve his strength to deal with his too bad luck, asked directly:
"Director! What happened to the black goat's stomach? Can I claim it as well?"
"Stomach words...... It's not difficult, but it's not as fast as the sheep's heart, and it will take a while."
The red-haired director thought for a moment and replied:
"That sheep's stomach is considered to have been found by yourself, not captured by you from the mission, but as an anomaly handed in by our bureau, after the basic inspection, our *** bureau can also apply for it first.
According to the application regulations set by the General Administration, you only need to hand in one anomaly of the same level, or three anomalies of a relatively low level, and you can get it.
Well...... In the case of a sheep's stomach, the Lyon value is about 8 points, but because it is one of a complete set of anomalies, the exchange demand is much higher, and it is estimated that it will be calculated according to the value of 10 points, do you have any other anomalies on hand that can be used to exchange?"
"Really!"
After taking stock of his current inventory, Leon knocked on the small mirror he was carrying, and instructed Yuha to throw out the model cot with the "ghost hand under the bed" sealed.
"This item has a Leon value of 8.7, plus the [Heartbeat Moment] of Leon worth 2.5 that was captured today, it should be enough to exchange...... Not...... Wait a minute."
After reaching out and touching the red hair on his neck, Leon did not immediately hand over the thing, but after hesitating for a moment, he spoke:
"Director, can I ask you for a favor?"
"Huh? What's busy?"
"That's it...... Haven't I been targeted by those chaotic parties lately? I was worried that they would go after my family, so I wanted three hairs and one for each of my younger siblings."
After stating his request, without waiting for the red-haired director to answer, Leon, who was worried that she would refuse, immediately added:
"Of course, I know that [Killing Blood Hair] is a powerful anomaly numbered 013, even if there are only a few of them, they are very precious, and they need to continuously consume your strength, so it will definitely not be in vain.
If you can accept it, these three hairs, I'm willing to exchange this Lyon worth 8.7 [Ghost Hand Under the Bed], okay?"
Use the [Ghost Hand Under the Bed] to change three bloody hairs for your younger brother and sister?
After listening to Leon's conditions, looking at his extremely sincere expression, the red-haired director subconsciously blinked his fox eyes, then bent his knuckles and tapped the table, and asked thoughtfully:
"If you swap my hair for [Ghost Hand Under the Bed], what are you going to do for that goat's stomach? Lyon's anomaly is close to 10 points, but it's not easy to find, are you sure you want to change it like this?"
"I'm sure."
Leon nodded seriously and said:
"Even if the 10-point Lyon anomaly is hard to find, there are still some of them, and I think it's completely acceptable to exchange them for Anna's safety."
So is family in your heart more important than anything else?
Staring at Leon's eyes for a while, confirming that he really thought so, the red-haired director couldn't help blinking, feeling a little sour in his heart, not only envious of the few people who were missed by Leon, but also envied Leon who could still be missed.
It's so good, whether it's you or Emma, you still have the most important family to rely on, and with your own situation, I'm afraid you are destined to lose the word family...... Well...... It's annoying! Originally, I was in a good mood, but I was suddenly uncomfortable when you messed with me like this.
"Okay, then I'll take it!"
After swallowing back the three words "no need to change" that came to his mouth, and after taking the [Ghost Hand Under the Bed] and throwing it into the drawer, the red-haired director couldn't help but glare at Leon with a happy face, and took the initiative to send out a malicious invitation to fight.
"Have a drink?"
"Huh?"
"I've drunk it with me today, don't say three, thirty!"
