Me! Cleaner!

Chapter 524 Puppet and Croc

"You must be Mr. Bell."

After looking through the documents and personal belongings on the table and confirming the identity of the owner, Leon turned to look at the sloppy man being held down by Alger, and said calmly:

"Don't worry, we don't want to hurt you, we just want to use your identity as a scholar in District 1 to help us do something."

"snort!"

Before Leon could ask, the man with a messy beard snorted angrily, and then said with an unkind expression:

"You are those fugitives, right! What? After attacking Administrative District No. 3, are you targeting Scientific Research District No. 1?"

"Yes."

"I won't take you there, don't even think about it!"

The slovenly man acted very tough, cocking his neck and glaring at Leon:

"Research Zone No. 1 is the core of the entire Kingdom of Korok, and everything I have is given by the Kingdom. There is absolutely no way I can betray the Kingdom!"

"Uh-huh."

After casually responding, Leon, who had not slept all night, did not continue to say anything to the sloppy man, but said to Alger who was holding him down:

"Senior Alger, what happens next is up to you."

"OK."

After hearing Leon's words, Alger nodded slightly, and the right hand that was pressing on the sloppy man's shoulder instantly spread out, turning into countless threads that were thinner than hair, hanging softly on his shoulder.

"What is this? What do you...you guys want to do?"

In the sloppy man's horrified gaze, the strange threads hanging down on his shoulders were like earthworms burrowing into the ground, breaking through the skin on his shoulders and burrowing into his body one by one.

Then, before the startled man could resist, those thin and almost transparent threads "swimmed" along the gaps between his texture and toward his limbs.

In just a few breaths, these strange threads traveled all over his body, replacing his own will and completely taking over his body. Even the eyelids and tongue were implanted with at least a few implants. Dozens of thin wires, unable to move at all.

"Almost."

After turning over the sloppy man's earlobe and faintly feeling the bulge of some silk threads at the thinnest part of the skin on the back, Alger, whose entire right arm disappeared at shoulder level, nodded and said to Leon:

"This Mr. Bell has been controlled by me. If he behaves abnormally, I will discover and stop him as soon as possible to ensure that he has no chance to call for help."

"Hard."

After nodding towards Alger, Leon rummaged through the slovenly man's pockets under the horrified gaze, took out his small notebook, glanced at the itinerary written on it, and then said:

"Let's go. It's already time for Mr. Bell to go to work. It's time for us to set off."

Set off? You...ah? !

After hearing Leon's words, the sloppy man was horrified to find that as if there was another set of bones and muscles exerting force in his body, he actually raised his hand to open the door and walked out.

The young man with black hair and black eyes, and the strong man who was missing his right arm, followed directly behind him and walked directly onto the street without avoiding anyone.

What’s even more strange is that when faced with these two criminals whose appearance and characteristics were exactly the same as those reported, and who didn’t even change their clothes, passers-by on the street seemed not to see them and had no reaction at all.

How is that possible? Will they become invisible?

While the sloppy man was puzzled, Leon had already taken his ID card, inserted it into the pathfinder beside the road, sent a request to go to Scientific Research Area 1, and then joined the tall man who was missing an arm. , and followed him into the floating car that came to pick up people. …

"Mr. Lyon."

It seemed that he was a little unsure. After the float vehicle started to move, Alger couldn't help but ask:

"Should we just go there directly? Wouldn't it be safer if we rely on Mona's [smooth road ahead]?"

"It's okay, just go ahead."

Leon, who was sitting next to the sloppy man, was flipping through the information he grabbed yesterday and replied without raising his head:

"I have carefully checked and found that there is nothing similar to video surveillance in the technology of the Kingdom of Korok. The effect of [Secret Tail] is enough for us to get past ordinary checkpoints.

Taking into account several specially developed large-scale experimental areas in the surrounding area, the total area of ​​the No. 1 scientific research area is almost more than 60 square kilometers, which is not a small place. We just need to be careful not to get too close to the core area and not appear in it. In an open place, the possibility of discovery is low. "

"That's good…"

After hearing Leon's assurance, Alger felt a little relieved, then looked at the man who was looking down at the information, and said curiously:

"Mr. Lyon, these stolen information are just ordinary data, right? You read it all night yesterday, haven't you finished it yet?"

"No, I've only seen about one-tenth of it now."

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

"Then...what did you find?"

"There are some."

Looking through the thick "Koroke Mineral Resources Policy" in his hand, and the "Chronology of Main Energy and Core Materials Revenue and Expenditure" as a comparison, Lyon looked slightly cold and authentic:

"The Kingdom of Korok is not large, but its resource consumption is astonishingly large. The floating crystal alone consumes more than 100,000 tons every year, and the remaining consumption of whale blubber, coal, special ores, and various rare metals The amount must be calculated in millions of tons.”

"Isn't this normal?"

After thinking for a while, Alger said with some confusion:

"I don't understand this very well, but I have heard that although the Kingdom of Korok is small, it is actually a trade-oriented country like Thousand Sails Kingdom Saiao. It sells a huge amount of products every year. This consumption seems to be Nothing?"

"This consumption is nothing. It can even be considered small based on the trading volume of the Kingdom of Korok. But the real problem lies in where it comes from these resources."

Taking his charcoal pencil and circling a few circles on the attached picture of "Mineral Resources Policy", Leon frowned and said:

"Although the 'land' of the Korok Kingdom is not large, it actually controls many 'mining areas' that exist only to support the Korok Kingdom.

Even if taken individually, these 'mining areas' are not large, and their locations are extremely scattered. However, in the name of short-term development, semi-permanent lease, or even direct purchase, these areas that provide resources to the Kingdom of Korok already have a total of less than 400,000 square kilometers. "

"What?!"

After hearing Leon's words, Alger couldn't help being shocked.

"There are actually so many? Our Kingdom of Alesund is so big, only over one million square kilometers! I thought the Kingdom of Korok was a small country with only over 20,000 square kilometers!"
