Chapter 5: 0005 The Sixth Cleaning Bureau_1

"Even though our Purification Bureau is an external department of the Police Department, it wasn't fully under the Kingdom's Police Department, being a relatively independent and loose transnational organization. It had branches all over the world and accepted directives and leadership from various countries, responsible for handling special situations.

Aside from the headquarters whose exact location was unknown, there were a total of 87 branches in our Purification Bureau, each assigned an astronomical constellation as a code name. The one you're joining is the Number Six Purification Bureau, codenamed Virgo, also known as the Virgin Sanitation Bureau."

After leisurely introducing the situation of the Purification Bureau and seeing Leon visibly breathe a sigh of relief, the red-haired woman, satisfied by her mischievous pleasure, smirked. She then pointed to the Black Goat beside her and said,

"As for our work, it's to deal with those troublemakers so that they don't affect the lives of ordinary people. It specifically includes, but is not limited to, extradimensional demons trying to scavenge souls, crazy evil gods attempting to impose their will, radical deities preparing to take control of the world, special anomalies born from human obsessions, ocean races planning to counterattack land, prehistoric civilizations frozen in polar glaciers, undead specters fleeing normal timelines, ancient creatures surviving in the earth's crust, original inhabitants living behind the moon, and so on..."

"..."

*Holy crap... is this world really that complicated? I thought it was just like a 19th century with a skewed tech tree, but I didn't expect there to be so many hidden dangers lurking behind the scenes?*

"You actually believed that!"

Seeing the shock in Leon's eyes, made gullible by her bluff, the red-haired woman seemed to witness something amusing. She raised her hand to cover her slightly smirking glossy lips, her supple waist bending slightly forward, and chuckled softly in amusement.

As her voluptuous figure moved slightly, the woman's face, already carrying a tinge of drunkenness, quietly blossomed with a faint blush, like a cluster of bright and charming oleander flowers, blooming silently in the dim corridor, emitting a slightly toxic sweet fragrance...

*So it was all a bluff, scared me there...*

Watching the red-haired woman laugh so enchantingly before him, though just deceived for a moment, for some reason, the mood that had weighed heavily on Leon because of his sister's old ailment strangely lightened a bit, however...

*Wait a minute, what did I just ask? Did she answer me?*

In the midst of the red-haired woman's radiant smile, a thin mist suddenly drifted through Leon's mind, erasing a piece of his originally clear memory in a strange way, as if something had been quietly wiped away.

Standing there indecisively for a while, unable to figure out the reason despite racking his brains, he had no choice but to temporarily bypass this strange fog and ask the question he was most concerned about.

"Excuse me, what about the Purification Bureau's benefits..."

"The benefits are quite good."

Staring into Leon's eyes and capturing that familiar sense of bewilderment, the red-haired woman answered with a smile,

"As long as you can pass the probation period, you'll become an assistant-level public servant of the Kingdom, but the salary is disbursed according to the clerical level, and you should be able to earn around twelve Gold Wheels per week."

Twelve Gold Wheels? That much?!

Upon hearing the salary level of the Purification Bureau, Leon couldn't help but shiver all over, instantly forgetting that small bit of doubt.

One Gold Wheel = ten Silver Wheels = one hundred Copper Wheels, so twelve Gold Wheels is twelve hundred Copper Wheels, which amounts to sixty-two thousand four hundred Copper Wheels a year for fifty-two weeks!

According to the consumption level in the Capital City, a rather sumptuous breakfast costs just two to three Copper Wheels at most, so after becoming a regular worker, with an annual income of over sixty thousand Copper Wheels, he had already leapt from poverty into the threshold of the middle class!

*No need to say more, from now on, the Purification Bureau is damn well my second home!*

"And besides the salary, you can also enjoy some other benefits."

Glancing at Leon, whose breathing was evidently a bit rapid, the red-haired woman added with a smile,

"Normal clerical-level public servants have two ten-day long vacations a year, along with weekends off. Including holidays, they can rest for about one hundred and sixty days in total. However, due to the special nature of the work at our Purification Bureau, you need to be on call at all times, so there are no such vacations, and since you are not a wanted criminal and voluntarily joined a dangerous department, you can also receive plenty of special perks.

Aside from double the pension, housing incentives, and other benefits like other public servants, you, your spouse, and all your direct relatives can enjoy free medical services, with everyone having a reimbursement limit of two thousand Gold Wheels per year.

Moreover, when your children reach schooling age, they can freely choose any public school except the Royal Internal School, and can advance internally without any exams, or freely transfer schools externally. When they turn sixteen, the Purification Bureau can also provide a recommendation letter for you. Apart from the top three universities that will still require certain qualifications, they should be able to enroll without exams, even if you prematurely sacrifice yourself, it will still be effective..."

Sacrifice! I might as well damn well sacrifice now!

No, that's not what I mean! What I'm trying to say is, from now on, whether I live or die, I am damn well a person of the Purification Bureau! Even after being cremated, I am the Purification Bureau's ashes! Even if someone casually scatters me, I'm still the dust storm of our Purification Bureau!

After secretly taking two deep breaths, Leon, whose sense of belonging to the Purification Bureau overflowed, raised his head, clenched his fist tightly, and, trying to keep his expression as calm as possible, inquired,

"So... when can I start working?"

"Now."

Returning to her large desk, rummaging in a drawer twice, the red-haired woman tossed over a palm-sized booklet, saying with a smile,

"Take this, it's your ID. Just write your name, then pin the badge inside it, and you're done with the procedures."

That simple?

Catching the little booklet, Leon doubtfully opened his newly acquired ID, and after examining the badge's design inside, he remarked in surprise,

"This woman pushing a ball is..."

"It's the emblem of our Sixth Bureau."

The red-haired woman explained, "The Purification Bureau's emblem is a Sacred Scarab pushing a dung ball, symbolizing how the Purification Bureau, like the Sacred Scarab, will clean up pollutants and draw nourishment and strength from them. However, due to the need to identify members from different branches, each branch's badge is different. For instance, our Sixth Purification Bureau, which is codenamed Virgo, changed it to a woman pushing a dung ball."

"..."

A woman pushing a dung ball... Dung Beetle Lady? Which genius came up with this idea?

Holding the bizarre badge, more bizarre than creative, which seemed to be designed to crush the spirit of its wearer, Leon's facial muscles couldn't help but twitch slightly, feeling like he had a thousand rants stuck in his chest.

But looking at the generous benefits of the Purification Bureau, he forcefully swallowed his gripes and silently pinned the Dung Beetle Lady badge on himself. Accepting the feather pen handed over by the red-haired woman, he wrote his name on the inner page of the booklet.

"Zzzt"
