LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 606
“Relax, the people I eat won’t really die!”
The Twin Fish Director took a long time to respond, and Senior Armin was still outside. Leon’s heart was getting anxious, so he explained to the Cleaners in front of him who all had stunned faces: “I have… let’s say a special ability. In short, I can temporarily increase my own strength through this method, and the people I eat can be spat out afterwards without any danger!”
“…”
“Really, I can take responsibility for my words.”
Looking at the Cleaners who were silent as crows, and some were even stealthily retreating, Leon could only turn his gaze towards Alabaster Maiden who looked shocked and opened his mouth to “ask for help”:
“During our last investigation mission, we encountered an extremely dangerous situation. Senior Reuben, Senior Franky, and Senior Mona from the Scorpio Division were eaten by me once, but they’re all fine now. The people from the Scorpio Division can testify for me!”
“…”
“Senior Alabaster?”
“This… it seems there really was such an incident…”
Facing the doubtful gazes of the Cleaners, Alabaster Maiden couldn’t help but stiffly nod and started testifying: “Because of confidentiality requirements, Reuben and the others couldn’t tell me the specific details of the mission, but they did return alive.”
“You see, I didn’t lie! I just need to temporarily eat you…”
“However, their original bodies are gone.”
“?!”
Seeing the Cleaners who all took a step back at this point, Leon couldn’t help but look bewilderedly at the white-clad girl.
What do you mean by mentioning this at a time like this? “I… I’m just telling the truth.”
Facing Leon’s astonished gaze, Alabaster Maiden instinctively took half a step back, then slightly turned her head and whispered:
“Also, before we signed up to participate in this assessment, Bureau Director Edward thought you might join too, so he held back our applications and asked us to come for the next assessment.”
“…”
“And, before we came, the director also reminded us that if we can’t beat you, we should surrender immediately, don’t get close to you unnecessarily, and if… if you suddenly go crazy and do something crazy, we must report to the Twin Fish Director immediately…”
“?!!!!”
Wait… weren’t you saying earlier that Edward praised me highly? Is this how he “praised” me? Looking at the Cleaners whose faces showed fear after hearing what Alabaster Maiden relayed, Leon’s cheeks twitched involuntarily, and he decisively abandoned the idea of solving the problem with “peaceful means.”
Since the Twin Fish Director hasn’t moved yet, and Senior Armin is still outside, the longer we drag here, the higher the probability she’ll be in trouble, so…
I can only say sorry! Suddenly stepping forward half a step, Leon grabbed Alabaster Maiden’s wings and, amidst the horrified expressions of the Cleaners, squinted his eyes and raised his knife:
“Sorry, I’ll apologize properly later!”
“?!”
Dude, you’re going to start eating already?!!! Seeing Leon revealing his true colors, not even pretending anymore, and going berserk to eat people on the spot, the Cleaners couldn’t help but feel anger rising in their hearts, and then they all…
without hesitation scattered and fled.
It’s not that we lack courage; it’s just that having courage doesn’t matter right now!
Finished… finished! Struggling twice but unable to break free, looking at Leon full of murderous intent in front of her, Alabaster Maiden instantly turned pale, her eyes flashing with a hint of despair.
Regretting not listening to the director!
If I had listened to Bureau Director Edward’s advice and not insisted on challenging him, I wouldn’t have ended up in such a terrible situation… But Director, why didn’t you at least mention that he eats people?
“Huh?”
Just as Leon was about to chop the six-winged chicken, first chopping her soul into his belly, a curious childlike voice suddenly rang out in everyone’s ears.
Then, the fleeing Cleaners felt a flash before their eyes. The white misty sky of the Dream Assessment Field disappeared, and the colorful Dream River finally reappeared in their sight.
“So many people~”
A little girl with horns tied in braids was holding Senior Armin’s hand, looking up at the panicked Cleaners, and cutely said with a face full of expectation:
“Are you playing a game? Can Mimi join too?”
Mimi… one of the four souls of the Twin Fish Director?! Recognizing her immediately since he’d seen Mimi once at the bureau, Leon quickly released the desperate Alabaster Maiden and ran over to the two. However, before he could ask, Armin spoke first:

“The Aquarius Director came.”
“?!?!?”
“He suddenly appeared, stabbed the Twin Fish Director once, then threatened the Twin Fish Director to cooperate with him, otherwise he would kill all the Cleaners.”
Oh no… serious stuff happened! Hearing that Aquarius actually appeared, Leon immediately became solemn and hastily asked: “Then what?”
“Then during the conversation between the Twin Fish Director and him, something unknown made him dazed for a moment. Subsequently, a colorful shadow was summoned, which directly crushed the flesh of the Aquarius Director.”
Pointing to a twisted corpse not far away, Armin uncertainly said: “I don’t know exactly what happened, but the Aquarius Director definitely didn’t die. After being ambushed and crushed by Lord Twin Fish, he even had time to bid farewell to Lord Twin Fish with a smile. But as soon as Lord Twin Fish got rid of him, he suddenly collapsed, turning into this state…”
“Hey!”
Pulling on Armin’s clothes forcefully, the little girl with braided horns pouted and protested unhappily: “What do you mean ‘this state’? Everyone says Mimi is very cute!”
“Ah, sorry!”
Hearing the little girl’s protest, Armin couldn’t help but bow slightly with an apologetic expression and explained:
“My choice of words may not have been pleasant to hear, but regarding Lord Twin Fish, I meant nothing else. I was simply recounting the situation.”
What? This little girl is actually the Twin Fish Director?!
The conversation between Leon and Armin wasn’t hidden from anyone. The Cleaners, restricted by the venue and not running too far, didn’t understand everything they said, but they roughly understood the gist and figured out the “whereabouts” of the Twin Fish Director. More than four hundred pairs of eyes immediately stared over.
“Uh-oh!”
Startled by the complex gazes of the Cleaners, the child version of the Twin Fish Director first let out a soft exclamation, then hid behind Leon, who she recognized, and timidly pulled on his trouser leg: “Mimi is that… those two fish who understand things! You have to listen to Mimi!”
