Me! Cleaner!

Chapter 425 Sanyang meeting and summons

Finally... finally...

Looking at Leon who reached out to hold the princess's cheek and forcefully invited her to "do big things" with him, the black goat couldn't help but desperately hold his breath, and there was a faint flush of excitement on his face.

The wait is finally here! !

This kid is too cautious and won't act when he's not sure. I originally thought that he would have to hold it in for another three to five or seven years until he became stronger, and then he would be able to see that he was dominated by his own desires and began to vent his feelings for this person wantonly. The world's anger.

Unexpectedly, after joining the Cleanup Bureau, he had only been working for two months and he could no longer hold back the fire in his heart and began to attack this human kingdom!

And when he uses this stupid woman in front of him as a springboard and gains the ability to do whatever he wants, the flames of rage that have been fermenting in his heart for more than two months and finally detonated by the Nightmare King will completely sweep everything!

After just thinking about that wonderful future for a moment, the black goat, who had been frustrated for a long time, started to tremble with excitement.

At that time, as long as he draws a little part of his crazy and raging rage as food, it will be enough to make a qualitative change in himself, and he will finally...

"I'm finally going to do it!"

In the astonished expression of the black goat, a shout of joy broke into its soul.

"Wonderful! This is so wonderful!"

Through the eyes of the black goat, I feel the crazily surging desire, as if I can see the seeds that I have planted so hard for a long time, finally breaking through the dark soil, and tentatively sprouting young green shoots, [Heart of Ambition] I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"This ultimate ambition will definitely bring about the ultimate power, and the ultimate power will also breed the ultimate arrogance! When he completely controls the entire kingdom, this extreme desire will definitely help me return to the top !”

“…”

No...we are the first ones here, okay? Who the **** are you here?

Unexpectedly, there was someone...a demon crazier than him. The black goat was immediately furious. However, just when it was about to curse the sheep in its soul, another extremely excited voice also sounded.

"This is greed! I feel endless greed! I want to dominate everything and make the entire kingdom follow him..."

"Are you blind? This is obviously endless ambition!"

"But I clearly saw..."

"Fart! You two blind demons don't even have eyes to see a fart! This is absolutely a rage that destroys everything!"

"Haha, who do you think you are? I am the strongest, so if I say it is arrogance, it is arrogance!"

"I think it doesn't matter whose eyes you have. After all, with this endless greed as food, your eyes will become my eyes sooner or later."

"Get out! Don't come in! Get out of our heads!"

…

When the three haggis were quarreling over Leon and began to taunt and curse each other, the princess, who was also troubled by Leon's problem, was pleading in a low voice with helpless eyes:

"Leon, I really don't know what to do. Your words are a bit...a bit too sudden. Can you give me a little more time to think about it again?"

"Of course. After all, you have to take the initiative in this matter. In the end, whether you want to do it or not, of course I must respect your wishes."

After looking at Princess Veronica's eyes, he understood that this was the current limit. Leon did not continue to press forward step by step. Instead, he nodded and withdrew his right hand that was holding her cheek.

"Thanks…"

After the shockingly hot palm left her cheek, Princess Veronica couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously. Then she couldn't help biting her lower lip and asked in a low voice:

"Lion, 伱... I didn't nod just now. Are you disappointed in me?"

Leon was silent for a moment after hearing this, then shook his head and said:

"There is disappointment, but it is not for you, after all, you have no obligation to do this in the first place.

Even if you just need to go back and make a good show of your stance and express your willingness to give up proposals that may harm the interests of the royal family and dilute the king's power, you will have a high chance of inheriting the throne, and there is no need to take such risks.

On the contrary, I have been taking advantage of your kindness and want to force you to agree to my proposal, so in this matter, no matter what your final choice is, I can understand. "

Can you understand...but not necessarily agree?

After hearing the implication of Leon's words, Princess Veronica pursed her lips again, and then said with complicated eyes:

"Leon... what you just told me, whether it is known by the kingdom or by the cleanup bureau, your results may not be very good. You... aren't you worried that I will betray you?"

Upon hearing this, Leon looked at her, put his fingers under the table against the black goat next to him, and then asked with a serious face:

"Then you can?"

"Won't."

With the help of the black goat's soul vision, after taking a look at the background of the princess, Leon nodded and said:

"Then I won't worry."

“…”

Seeing Leon who just got a promise from him and just chose to believe in it, Princess Veronica couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart, and then she softly said with soft eyes:

"Leon, can I ask you one last question?"

"You asked."

"I want to know, why do you think I can change this country after becoming queen?"

"Um?"

Leon couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard this, and then asked:

“Aren’t you already changing this country?”

Am I...already changing this country?

After hearing Leon's answer, Princess Veronica was also slightly startled, and then subconsciously clenched her hands.

Yes, although I haven't been able to completely break this stagnant water, but like Leon said before, I have always done the right thing!

Even Leon is willing to take huge risks and tell himself his thoughts because he recognizes his own efforts. Therefore, the things he has done over the years are not all in vain. Maybe... he has really impressed some people. Saw the light.

"Thanks…"

After getting a full sense of recognition from Leon's response, the princess, whose heart was almost full, couldn't help but take a deep breath. With the little reason left, she finally held it back, Didn't agree on the spot.

"I'm leaving first. Regarding your proposal... I will definitely consider it carefully."

After leaving such words, her heart felt hot, and she quickly walked out of the box and left the restaurant, hurriedly stepping into the slightly chilly night breeze of the capital. Leon, who was unable to stop him, was about to follow him out when the waiter guarding the door suddenly stepped aside and stopped him politely and without refusal.

"This gentleman."

After looking sympathetically at Lyon, who was abandoned by his female companion, the well-dressed waiter hardened his heart and smiled politely:

"The food you ordered is already being prepared. Is there anything else you need?"

“…”

What do I need...I need you to call back the person who paid the bill!

Looking at the waiter in front of him who looked at him warily, as if he was afraid that he would escape the bill, Leon opened and closed his lips slightly, but in the end he was too embarrassed to call the princess back to pay the bill.

"Then what..."

However, after thinking about the prices on the menu, the leader of the gang, who was really short of money recently, had no choice but to cough awkwardly and tentatively discuss:

"Are there any dishes that haven't been cooked? After all, my... female companion has gone home for something. There are so many dishes that I can't finish by myself. Can I back off a few dishes?"

"Sorry, all the dishes are already being prepared, but I can help you hurry up."

"Okay..."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

…

By the way...what on earth was I going to do?

When Leon sat in front of a table of sumptuous dishes and reluctantly ate the most expensive meal of his life, the princess who got on the carriage suddenly remembered her original plan as she was reminded by the growling in her stomach.

Isn’t that right?

I just want to ask Leon to have a meal today and keep in touch with each other for a while, so as not to keep him thinking about canceling the engagement? Why was it that after ordering food and chatting for a while, it suddenly turned into an armed coup to suppress the nobles and seize the throne?

And it seems like the food hasn’t been eaten yet…

After pressing her growling stomach, the princess couldn't help but blinked speechlessly as she thought of the outrageous unfolding of God just now.

It's really... I feel like every time I'm alone with Leon, something will definitely go wrong.

I went to see a play and was attacked by an abnormality. I changed from watching a play to acting. Then I came to the house to communicate with her, but the teasing turned out to be a bit too much. He threw me on the sofa and slept all night.

Today was the most outrageous. I just wanted to make a simple dinner date, and ask him to show up at the parliament that he had been to for a few days to help me advance the proposal. However, I was almost persuaded to directly launch an armed usurpation...

It seems that no matter what purpose he has, after meeting Leon, he will deviate from the original plan bizarrely, and be led by him on a new path that he has never imagined, and by the way, it will lead to another place that is not at all the same as the original plan. Strange consequences of relationships.

A strange man...hmm...but this doesn't seem so bad.

When thinking of this, for some reason, Princess Veronica suddenly raised her hand and gently touched her left cheek.

Just a few minutes ago, a hand with astonishing heat was held here without any refusal, demanding that he answer his question head-on.

I really didn’t expect that this little man who can’t stand being teased just a little bit by me would actually have such a strong side...

Imitating Leon's movements, she tried to hold her cheek several times, but failed to get back the strange but not annoying feeling. The princess had to put down her hand, leaned against the wall of the carriage, and tried her best to Clearing his chaotic thoughts, he began to think about Leon's proposal.

If he refuses Lyon, when the parliament ends the day after tomorrow, it is estimated that it will not be long before his father, as the king, asks to terminate the engagement between himself and Lyon, and then marries himself far away.

At that time, not only will he lose his efforts for so many years, but he will also lose the opportunity to completely change the kingdom. He can only watch countless "Leon" and "Anna" continue to struggle in a painful life.

But if he chooses to agree to Leon's proposal, it will be equivalent to cutting off the last trace of father-daughter affection. With his father's stubborn character, he will probably never say a word to him again until he dies.

In addition, my father has been the king for twenty years and his prestige is not low. In order to ensure the stability of the kingdom, I must put him under house arrest. Considering the counterattack of the old nobles after the reform is implemented, this time may take more than ten years. , or even longer.

My father has been ill for six years, and his physical condition has always been very poor. If he is put under house arrest again, he may not be able to survive until the day when the situation is completely stabilized and the house arrest ends...

How should I choose?

After riding the carriage back to the palace, the princess, who was full of hesitation, walked into her bedroom, stood in front of the shelf next to the table, and fell into a trance.

On the top floor of this shelf, there is a row of photo frames that look a little old but have obviously been cleaned frequently. The largest photo among them shows a young and healthy couple and a girl with happy eyes.

Although the photo is a bit old and has faded severely under the light, if you look closely, you can still make out the girl's facial features and the smile that comes from the heart.

The girl in the photo is wearing a crown of wild flowers on her head. She is sitting on a swing made of wooden boards and vines. She is swinging high into the sky. Her carefree eyes are so clear that she can see everything. Less than adult cunning and pretense.

Behind the girl, there is a young man with a deep tear trough on the side of his nose, but a very gentle smile. In the photo, he is maintaining the posture of pushing forward, raising his arms flatly, holding the girl The child's swing swings hard into the sky.

Not far away from the father and daughter, a young woman with only half of her body in the mirror was sitting on a chair next to the swing, looking tenderly at the playfulness of her husband and daughter.

"Father...Mother..."

After reaching out and touching the old photo, the princess clenched her fists slightly, then moved her eyes away from the photo and moved down one level.

A tin doll with half of its cheek broken and a face like a sad smile was leaning quietly on the shelf. Two emerald glass eyes stared at her timidly with a hint of inexplicable sadness.

“…”

The city of Cornwall six years ago...the dilapidated factory at the end of the street...the bright syrup flowing all over the ground...the survivors hiding in the warehouse...the little girl holding the doll and timidly looking at herself...the fuel bomb falling from the sky...being killed by... Lit syrup... raging sea of ​​orange fire...

When she saw the tin doll, whose eyes were the same color as the girl's, the nightmare that had been tormenting the princess for six years came to mind again uncontrollably.

Reaching out and caressing the burn marks on the doll's arm, thinking of Leon's expression when he told about his past, the princess couldn't help but bite her lips again.

What do I want...

"Tuk, Tuk, Tuk."

Just as the princess was having a fierce conflict in her heart, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Highness."

After getting the princess's permission, the two female officials opened the door and walked into the bedroom, announcing with respectful expressions:

"Your Majesty knows that you are back and would like to ask you to come over and tell us about the situation after your meeting with the Prime Minister this afternoon."
