I! Cleaner!
Chapter 110 - 110: 0095 Accidental Discovery_1

"Unnatural deaths and disappearance register?"

After looking at the title on the roster, the female police officer exclaimed with surprise,

"Isn't everyone listed here from the Ryan Family? If you're looking for evidence against the Ryan Family, searching this won't be of much use, right?"

Indeed, if it were for evidence, looking at this wouldn't be very meaningful, but for investigating Anomalous Objects, it became quite effective.

Especially with Anomalous Objects like the "Demon" Yang Xin, when the holder couldn't control it, it almost inevitably caused many unnatural deaths.

And if many people who died unnaturally were connected to one person, then the possibility of this person using or even possessing Yang Xin would increase infinitely, but there was no need to explain all of this to her.

"Don't worry, it's useful."

To ensure that the hard-to-find helper worked efficiently without slacking off, Leon continued flipping through the genealogical records in his hands without raising his head, he casually replied,

"The records in this room are not the original genealogy; they are the copies that the Ryan Family allows others to peruse, so the contents must have been glorified, and most overly sensitive parts have likely been removed, but..."

"But records of events can be deleted, while records of who is alive or dead are generally accurate! So in these semi-public genealogies, the credibility of such basic records is actually the highest!"

Upon understanding Leon's point, the female police officer's eyes lit up involuntarily, and she looked at Leon with a bit of admiration in her eyes.

This bastard... this guy's brain is really quick!

Not only could he instantly judge the credibility of information, but he also had a terrifyingly accurate interrogation method, and even his shooting was super precise. No wonder he could get into the "hidden department" of the investigative department; this guy really was a rare talent!

Shocked by Leon's methods, in the female police officer's eyes, Leon seemed to be haloed with an aura of a "big shot," and even the frown he formed while flipping through the "fake" genealogy carried a hint of wisdom.

"..."

This guy, although impulsive, turned out to be quite easy to pacify... hmm... but his gaze was a bit unsettling...

Feeling uncomfortable being stared at by the female police officer, Leon subconsciously moved his chair a bit away from her, then continued flipping through the genealogical records while affirming,

"Yes, that's what I mean!

Plus, the Ryan Family is a large family; their internal relations aren't that close and even involve mutual infighting. Those accustomed to scheming probably won't only resort to such tactics externally but might also do so internally. So..."

"So we prioritize looking for those linked to many of the deceased and missing people!"

Understanding Leon's point once more, the female police officer couldn't help but slap her long leg, whispering in admiration,

"Having a connection with one deceased might be a coincidence; having connections with many deceased, it's most likely the mastermind!

Plus, if they are this ruthless internally, they would surely be even more unscrupulous externally, making it relatively easier to find evidence against such people compared to those who use fewer means!

Damn it! Why didn't I think of it? You really are... hmm..."

"..."

No... how did you suddenly switch from critiquing Leon to praising him?

Being stared at by the female police officer's heated gaze, Leon was unnerved and, for the first time, found that being looked at with admiration could be so uncomfortable.

Please, could you act a bit more normal?

I'm not being falsely modest; I'm genuinely uncomfortable... to be honest, compared to this weird gaze, the disdainful look you used to give me was actually more comfortable...

"I'll check right away!"

Unaware that she was being disliked, upon finding the "meaning" of her work, the female police officer immediately stood up, obtaining paper and pen from a servant. She then took the death roster and the genealogical records of important contacts, energetically plunging into the endless "Ryan Hell."

Seeing her finally calm down, not looking at him with those eyes or asking questions, Leon let out a sigh of relief and also immersed himself in the investigation of suspicious files.

After the two servants left, only the sound of pages turning remained in the genealogical room on the first floor of the small building.

Both were closely examining the records for separate purposes, Leon aiming to find evidence against the Ryan Family, and the female police officer seeking the missing Yang Xin, for several hours filled with intense scrutiny.

As the sun began to set, Leon had written nearly thirty names on the paper beside him, while the female police officer had found only eight or nine.

...

Hmm... you might say, this time around, recruiting her turned out to be spot on...

Closing the genealogy in his hand, Leon stretched his somewhat stiff neck, while glancing at the paper beside the female police officer, and was pleasantly surprised to find that five or six names on her "master" list overlapped with his "newly rich" list.

These seemingly unremarkable individuals suddenly rose to prominence and wealth while also being linked to many internal Ryan Family death incidents... if the person who obtained Yang Xin weren't a Buddhist youth, they likely were among these five or six people.

Moreover, just to be safe, ensuring that the "Yang Xin holder" didn't already hold a high position or lack a strong desire for wealth, the range could be slightly expanded but should remain within seven or eight individuals. It could be said he was not far from Yang Xin.

Hmm... the director was indeed the director. Visiting to acknowledge kinship, though sounding frivolous, proved astonishingly useful for investigating Anomalous Objects, accomplishing so much in just a few hours.

If I had listened to the Black Goat's proposal to sneak into Ryan Family rooms one by one in the middle of the night, interrogating anyone I found with the smell of Yang Xin, safety issues aside, it wouldn't have been as efficient as this!

Seriously reminding himself to learn from the director and Senior Emma, to think more before acting, so as not to become a reckless fool like the Black Goat later.

Looking at the female police officer who suddenly furrowed her brow, as if something was troubling her, Leon didn't disturb this still hard-working helper. Instead, he got up to exit the genealogical room, requested two servings of meals from a servant, and placed one beside her.

"Stop looking for now, take a break."

"Huh? Oh! Okay!"

Accepting the serving set on the table, she quickly swallowed a spoonful of soup, tasting nothing. Afterwards, the female police officer clenched her fist tightly, raising her head to look at Leon eating across the table, her face filled with hesitation.

"Hmm?"

Noticing her gaze, Leon put down the spoonful of mashed potatoes he scooped up, asking with some surprise,

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

I actually didn't... it's mainly because of you...

Instinctively licking her dry lips, the female police officer's white teeth began unconsciously nibbling her lower lip.

"Leon, let me ask you..."

Watching the man across from her, seemingly puzzled, the female police officer tightened her fists, even clenching her toes inside her shoes, and cautiously probed,

"If... I'm just saying if... if you were really a member of the Ryan Family, what would you do then?"

"..."

"Huh???!!!!"
