I! Cleaner!

After noticing the same abnormality on himself, Leon pondered for a moment and looked back in the direction of the palace.

Although it is still unclear what happened, it is estimated that more than 90% of the source of this abnormality is in the palace. As for why such a judgment can be made...

I can only say that fortunately, I have the habit of studying hard in my previous and later lives.

After squinting at the citizens being transformed in the distance and deducing an arc-shaped approximate boundary, Leon took out the charcoal pencil from the mirror world and the map of the palace near the rebels, and drew a barely accurate arc on the map with the pen.

According to the work common sense that Senior Emma told me, this kind of large-scale anomaly generally has two modes of effectiveness.

Either all people who meet the conditions will be affected immediately, just like my [Ambition], or it will spread outward in a ring with the holder of the anomaly as the center of the circle.

Now, all the citizens near the palace have turned into tin men, but the citizens farther away have not been completely affected. There is an obvious "first and last" difference, so it can be judged that the mode of the abnormal object's effectiveness this time is the latter.

So, since we know that the effective range of the abnormal object is a circle, and it is spreading outward with a certain point as the center, the next is a classic geometry problem.

Given the arc of a circle, how to find the center of this circle?

The answer is to make points A and B on the arc, connect AB, and make a perpendicular line to AB; then find point C, connect BC, and make a perpendicular line to BC, and the intersection of these two perpendicular lines is the approximate location of the center of the circle.

After scratching the map twice with a charcoal pencil, looking at the two perpendicular lines intersecting at the palace, Leon picked up the pen and drew a big cross on the palace, determining the approximate location of the "iron abnormal object".

His initial guess was correct, that thing should be in the palace.

Moreover, the Glory Square, the Royal Gallery, the Memorial Hall, the Royal Stables, the Office Area of ​​the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and all other buildings belonging to the front half of the palace complex can be almost ruled out, and the bedroom in the back half can be directly targeted.

According to the information he had obtained, the princess should be under house arrest in the bedroom, so it is better to go and take a look. In addition... the coup cannot be stopped!

...

Looking at the cross on the hand-drawn map, Leon stretched his palm, which looked normal but felt like cold iron, and immediately decided to continue the action.

Although he did not know what the effect of this "iron abnormality" was, he had the ability of [Heart of Ambition] to replace death, so the possibility of danger was not great.

Even considering his identity as the leader of the rebel party, even if [Heart of Ambition] could not take effect, he could still declare war on the kingdom on the spot, activate the combat immortality effect of [War Diagonal], and have another layer of immortality.

If he had the double insurance brought by the two immortal bodies, and was still killed by this suddenly appearing "iron abnormality", then he could only say that God wanted to kill me, and he could just accept his fate.

In addition, even if we don’t mention the princess who might be in danger, such a good opportunity for a coup is not always available.

If the director hadn’t received the news from the Snow Girl and found that the female reporter who followed the Aquarius director was suspected of sneaking into the Soul-Falling Black Abyss and rushing to the Dream World to arrest people, it would be difficult for him to lead the rebels to attack the palace.

You know, there must be the director’s hair in the palace.

Once the blood-slaughtering hair left by the director detects the approach of the aura of the abnormal object, with the speed of the director, it is estimated that it will take less than half a minute to rush directly to the palace.

Only when she went to another world and couldn’t detect the aura here, could he lead the rebels’ abnormal object holders to raid the palace. If it were any other time, he would really have to use human lives to pile up.

So facing this God-given opportunity, no matter what the iron abnormal object is, it is worth a gamble!

“Guest?”

Looking at Leon who pulled up the freckled prince and got back on the carriage, the iron coachman opened and closed his mouth slightly, revealing a simple but somewhat creepy smile.

"Have you finished your business?"

"Yes, it's done."

After nodding to the tin carriage driver, Leon said:

"Keep going. The palace does not allow carriages from outside to enter. You can take us through the square in front of the palace and stop at the registration office... Here's the fare."

"Okay!"

After taking the silver wheel handed over by Leon, the tin carriage driver's smile suddenly became more sincere, and the carriage parked on the side of the road also started moving forward again with the shrill neighing of the tin horse.

However, since the joints of the tin horse are not like the joints of a real horse, the carriage that started again would brake suddenly every time it passed a section, shaking the freckled prince who was curled up in the chair and turned pale.

Well... It seems that this is how Joshua accidentally avoided the sudden brake that time before.

After figuring out the reason, in front of Joshua's terrified eyes, Leon pulled out the small silver hammer stuck in the seat, and then said with concern:

"Are you uncomfortable with the shaking? Do you want me to help you sleep for a while?"

"..."

Looking at the small silver hammer in Leon's hand, the freckled prince, who was already numb, shivered and instinctively wanted to get off the car and run away again, but thinking of the cold and creepy iron world under the car, he still couldn't move his legs after all.

Although he seemed to be beaten if he stayed in the car, the guy in front of him still looked like a human being. Coupled with his status as a prince, he should... maybe... be unlikely to kill him... right?

As for the bunch of weird tin men under the car, it’s hard to say. The cleaners won’t kill me as a prince, but those ghosts may not care about my identity, so if I choose one, I’d rather stay in the car and get beaten up. Play it safe.

"Um...can you put the hammer away?"

After trying hard to build up his psychology, the freckled prince looked at the bright hammer in Leon's hand and said with a sad face:

"Same as before, can you just hit it with your hands?"

"..."

"as you wish."

…

"boom!"

Just when the Freckled Prince successfully negotiated for himself preferential treatment, at the back of the palace complex, in the palace that looked as peaceful as ever, harsh noises were being heard. The female officer's face turned pale.

"Bang!"

The place where I heard this sound should be that the desk was overturned by His Highness!

"Bang!" "Crash!!!"

This sound... it must be that the bed board is being dismantled, and I'm afraid it has been completely dismantled!

"Bang!" "Squeak——"

It's over. It's probably because His Highness pulled down the cabinet, scratched the carpet, and then dragged it vigorously on the floor! This...what should I do?

The female officer just outside the door was anxiously circling around. When she wanted to go in and take a look but couldn't help it, a series of angry footsteps came from the corridor.

"what happened!"

Listening to the harsh noises that were coming from Princess Veronica's bedroom, the queen, who rushed over with people after receiving the report, couldn't help but scolded with an angry look on her face:

"Is this how you look at her? Just let her make trouble inside?"

"Your Majesty the Queen..."

After hearing the queen's reprimand, the two female officials knelt down quickly, and one of them bravely said:

"The door was locked by His Highness from the inside. We...we don't have the key and we don't dare to go in, so..."

"Useless things!"

After glaring at the female officer who replied, her face was one part manic, one part arrogant, and one part domineering. Her expression was exactly the same as that of Joshua before he was beaten. The queen said angrily:

"Come here! Open the door! I want to see what the hell she is doing inside!"
