Chapter 106

Before persuading Leon to be on my side, the excuse was that the heart was extremely arrogant and definitely wouldn’t listen to me as well as it listens to myself now. But looking at this bastard’s attitude…

Shit! Is being someone’s dog so competitive nowadays?…

“It’s lying to you!”

After being heavily trolled by my own heart, the Black Goat, who lost out in the fierce competition, became furious with hatred rising from its gall and said sinisterly to Leon: “It’s arrogance! According to what I know about it, this guy would never be this obedient. So it probably plans to stabilize you and then take the chance to rat you out to the Clearing Bureau! Hurry up and make your move!”

‘You?!!!’

Looking at Leon who suddenly narrowed his eyes and once again grabbed the pendant, the betrayed “Wild Aspiration Heart” couldn’t help but explode with anger.

Back when I wasn’t yet split into seven parts, I was undoubtedly number one without a doubt. You piece of crap could only rank third because the fourth one is laziness, which doesn’t even bother to compete with you! You trashy third-place guy just happened to find a suitable host before me. After seeing the big brother, you don’t hand him over obediently but instead try to stir up trouble and provoke him to deal with me? This is all because of you! After being severely disgusted by the sixth behavior of its own third part, the “Wild Aspiration Heart” raised the stakes while gritting its teeth: ‘Besides those damn horns, I also found out the whereabouts of the stomach and tail these past years! As long as you erase its will and let me be your heart, not only will I do everything you say, but I can even tell you the location of those two items!’

???

What the hell? Still competing?

After noticing Leon’s somewhat swayed expression and realizing the situation might be getting worse, the Black Goat suddenly shivered and hurriedly added more incentives:

“Do you really need you to tell us the whereabouts of other things? Once Leon reaches the upper echelons of the Clearing Bureau, we’ll have plenty of ways to get others to investigate!”

“Also, how dare you compare yourself with me?”

“We’ve been… cooperating with the Clearing Bureau for years, always staying by the side of the director of the Yellow Path Division, remembering countless secret files and knowing endless strange secrets!”

While saying this, the Black Goat sneakily glanced at Leon’s soul and, upon noticing it seemed to be tilting back towards itself, quickly followed up while sighing in relief: “Leon! As long as you crush it, I’ll answer whatever you ask! Aren’t you always curious about Emma’s experiences and that red-haired woman’s past? As soon as you erase its will, I’ll tell you immediately!”

“You! Damn it! I can give him money! Power! The opportunity to reach the peak!”

“Haha, laughable, all the things you mentioned are garbage compared to absolute power!”

“I think you’re the garbage!”

“You’re garbage! You’re the most garbage! You’re even more garbage than that thing that got blown up!”

“…”

Watching these two lamb pieces fight each other fiercely to vie for who gets to serve me, after a moment of silence, Leon silently made a decision.

Kids make choices, adults naturally want them all!

But…

“The heart is absolutely impossible to give you.”

As a top-tier method of the Clearing Bureau on par with “Emma’s Leftovers”, Article Three of the “Manual for Training (Abnormal Items) of the Director” clearly states: Don’t trust any intelligent abnormal item, no matter how obedient it appears; keep a healthy level of suspicion.

Especially when they offer seemingly tempting conditions, remind yourself repeatedly at such times that most abnormal items are born from extreme obsessive emotions and experiences, or may even be part of some outer god or demon. Trusting them is tantamount to committing a crime against oneself and the world.

“But… if you’re willing to cooperate with me and prove that this matter was done by Bobby Lane, then after you’re checked by the bureau, I can reapply for you.”

“Yes! Hahaha! Yes! Good!”

Although unable to “reach the top in one step” and directly replace Leon’s heart, the “Wild Aspiration Heart” was still overjoyed and said several “good”s.

As for when it will truly ascend… hohoho, once he has used me a few times and experienced the absolute dominance of control, this kid will eventually beg me to become his heart!”Leon! Have you forgotten what that red-haired woman told you?”

Feeling the full confidence of the “Wild Aspiration Heart,” the first lapdog position-losing Black Goat urgently said:

“How can you believe the words of a demon? At this time, you must be ruthless! What if you don’t erase it, and it turns around to inform the Clearing Bureau…”

“What you said is correct; I indeed cannot easily believe the words of demons.”

Glancing sideways at the Black Goat’s soul that was spewing evilness outward, Leon looked utterly speechless and reminded him: “Also, did you forget that when I hold you, I also have a vision of souls, and I see clearer than you? If it were lying, I would have seen through it long ago, alright?”

“…”

After exposing the manipulation of the first lapdog and silencing it, Leon placed the second planned lapdog back onto Bobby Lane and then looked down at his blood-soaked coat.

Having arranged the motive and methods of the crime, colluding testimonies with the Black Goat, and bribing the remaining eyewitnesses, the only thing left unexplained was why I bled so much but had no injuries…

After taking a deep breath, Leon looked around and found a relatively clean spot to lie down, then firmly gripped the Holy Spirit Pendant.

Acting requires thoroughness!…

“Tap tap tap.”

“Come in.”

After knocking on the office door of the Bureau Director, the short man vigorously rubbed his palms and couldn’t wait to inquire:

“Uh… Actually, I don’t have anything urgent, I just wanted to ask you, approximately how much longer will the person who can appraise items come to work?”

Little Leon hasn’t arrived yet? Upon hearing the short man’s words, the Red-haired Bureau Director couldn’t help but slightly frown, but after sensing the condition of her strand of hair, she relaxed again and replied:

“He went on an external assignment yesterday to investigate the whereabouts of an abnormal item. If he hasn’t come back yet, it might be because he discovered something and spent the night investigating, and is now catching up on sleep. If the mission is completed, he should be here soon.”

“That’s good… haha, by the way, what kind of task did he go on? Happens that many of my ‘friends’ are idle, so maybe I could casually…”

“Hmm? Jerry, are you usually so friendly to new people?”

Without needing to guess what the short man was thinking, the Red-haired Bureau Director teased him with a smile and confidently said: “But you might not be able to help. He just went on a regular investigation task. Although his experience is a bit less, Leon is diligent and steady. I trust him completely when he handles things!”
