Chapter 151: The Investigation Mystery (Part 2)
Why is my psychological evaluation marked with a series of question marks? As Lyon focused on the text reflected in his pupils by the young man, he noticed seven question marks following the 'Psychological State' section, causing him to furrow his brows slightly.
After the red-haired director's warning, Lyon became extra cautious. He sat with the two investigators on the sofa, slightly to the right, near the storage cabinet. He secretly sent the young man with the small mirror to peek into the cabinet through the glass door.
Normally, Lyon's current position would not allow him to see the content of the investigation form. However, with the help of the 'Mirror Dog' ability, every word written by the investigators was reflected into his pupils, leaving nothing unobserved. The moment the question marks were written, he saw them.
However, despite the peculiar psychological evaluation, his overall assessment seemed rather positive.
The elderly investigator, after responding to some non-confrontational questions, looked at the form filled with 'Excellent' and 'Outstanding' ratings. Even with the director's prior warning about Lyon, the old investigator's impression of him continued to improve.
Despite being kicked out of the office and causing a minor dispute, the elderly investigator was impartial and even slightly protective during the questioning, displaying a demeanor that was truly admirable.
Compared to the other investigator who marked Lyon's form with multiple crosses and asked leading questions, trying to shift the focus onto the entire Maiden Bureau, and even suggesting that he report his female colleagues, it was truly hard to fathom.
...
"Mr. Leon, we've finished our questions. Thank you for your cooperation."
The elderly investigator stood up and shook Lyon's hand amicably. He did not disclose the results but left with the silent female investigator without a word.
After a short while, once they were completely out of the Maiden Bureau's range, the elderly investigator noticed the peculiar expression on the female investigator's face and tugged at his mouth, asking with a smile:
"Aisha, what's your take on this person today?"
"..."
The female investigator fell silent for a moment before sighing and answering honestly:
"To be honest... he seems like a rare good person. Not only is he kind-hearted, but he's also meticulous and diligent in his work. He's earnest and honest without being rigid, and he seems to have a sharp mind.
From my perspective, Elder Camus, he's the ideal template for a cleaner, and it's a real shame to have him in a place like the Maiden Bureau."
"Oh? No wonder you gave him such low ratings. So, you're trying to help him get transferred to a better bureau with a low evaluation?"
"Yes."
The female investigator nodded, her eyes filled with admiration as she explained:
"Elder Camus, according to our previous division of labor, I was responsible for investigating his character, while you were in charge of Lane Blood Night. Although we exchanged information beforehand, some things are not apparent in the files.
Before joining the Maiden Bureau, he was pushed to the brink several times due to financial issues. Logically, he should have a strong desire for money, but he didn't become a slave to it, and even the Holy Spirit of the Scale Gold Church couldn't control him.
Aside from money, his desire for power is also very weak. He strongly resists becoming a Duke. He tried to escape after recovering from his injuries, and these are not acts that can be faked. He's truly not a person of strong desires. The only thing he seems to value deeply is the bond between people.
Not only is he exceptionally good to his family, but he also took care of his younger brother and sister diligently after his parents' death. He has a habit of remembering the kindness shown to him by others, and he even gets along remarkably well with the people at the Maiden Bureau. This is truly a rare quality."
"The old investigator, upon hearing the female detective's words, seemed to find something amusing and couldn't help but chuckle.
His mouth naturally curved upwards, and with his gentle crescent-shaped eyes and deep laugh lines at the corners, he exuded a friendly demeanor when he smiled. "Aisha, you've completely misjudged him."
After a slight shake of his head, the old investigator handed over his investigation form.
The female detective took it and was shocked to find it filled with alarming red crosses, and comments like "Dangerous!" "Must monitor!" and "Suggest thorough investigation!" It was a stark contrast to the form Lyon had seen earlier.
"He's acting too normal. In our Cleanup Bureau, the more normal someone acts, the more terrifying they usually are!"
Seeing the female detective's bewildered expression, the old investigator shook his head. "Our cleaners are exposed to anomalies daily and witness the extremes of human evil in every mission. They engage in brutal life-and-death battles with numerous entities coveting this world.
"Aisha, remember, the greatest influence on one's character and behavior is always their experiences and encounters. Those who do this kind of work will inevitably deviate from the norm. How could he possibly act so normal and remain so stable?"
"This..."
Hearing the old investigator's words, the female detective was momentarily stunned, then questioned, "Is it because he's new to the Bureau, and hasn't had time to change too much...?"
"It's not a matter of time or the degree of change, but rather a sense of 'solidity.' Even with powers beyond ordinary people, his self-perception hasn't shifted at all."
"And... he doesn't even act that normal. Do you know? He's been secretly reading our investigation forms."
"Huh?"
"Just like the Sewer Emperor, he has a pet from the Mirror World that was lying on the glass next to us, spying on every word you wrote."
"..."
The old investigator sighed, then shared his discovery to the female detective, who was still looking perplexed. "Not only that, but Lane Blood Night and he are also connected. I highly suspect that those people weren't killed by Bobby Lane. When I traced back the scene, Bobby Lane was also shocked by what happened, and his eyes were filled with despair.
This person is very meticulous. There were no loopholes in his actions. The communication between Bobby Lane and the goat demon occurred in the spiritual realm, so I couldn't eavesdrop by tracing back the scene. Even the 'Wild Gaze of the Heart' submitted to the Bureau has somehow been influenced by him, and he insists that Bobby Lane is the perpetrator.
Also, I visited the Secret Investigation Bureau and traced back Lane Blood Night's situation. I observed his two interrogations of the female rebel. This person... how should I put it... seems to have an innate talent for toying with human hearts."
After some contemplation, the old investigator concluded seriously, "In summary... he's most likely a madman!"
