As for the ability, just like its name, it could duplicate anything into an identical copy, including anomalous objects. However, the ability would be slightly diminished, and only one duplicate could exist at a time.
Additionally, as long as the duplicate wasn't destroyed, it would continuously drain my power. The longer it was maintained, the greater the power consumption would be, making it a troublesome anomalous object with many limitations... but the effect was still very useful, especially when fishing."
After pushing one of the photos over and seeing the sudden realization in Leon's eyes as if he understood something, the Red-haired Director couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile and said,
"It seems you've already guessed it. I haven't reported the Duplicating Duo to the Bureau, so Aquarius shouldn't be aware. It's perfect for trying to set a trap for him.
And to prevent him from having any ability to sense the location of anomalous objects and using some strange anomalous object to steal things, I used fake photos here for insurance. The real ones were placed in your small mirror.
As for safety concerns, you don't need to worry. For creatures not from the Mirror World, everything in the mirror was just an illusory reflection, without any physical form at all. If you didn't take it out, he absolutely wouldn't discover it."
*Goodness, being able to go fishing and having double insurance, the sober Director sure was reliable!*
After looking at the Red-haired Director with some admiration, Leon was just about to put the photos away when he saw the Red-haired Director take out a small box and push it over next to the real photos.
"The heart of that sheep... Hmm... it's called the Heart of Ambition, right?"
Seeing Leon's eyes suddenly light up, the Red-haired Director said with a smile,
"Although the evaluation given was ridiculously low, you've indeed passed the Bureau's investigation, around the time you and Emma slapped Prince Joshua. The General Bureau sent some people over with the items."
"Was it you who led the beating?"
Seeing Leon's slightly embarrassed expression, the Red-haired Director's smile faded, and he squinted his eyes as he said,
"Emma said she did it, and you were just standing up for her, but do I need to say what the truth was? Do you know that foolish prince filed a complaint through the King, sending an extremely long complaint letter to the General Bureau!"
"He complained that our Bureau was negligent, violating the agreement between the Purification Bureau and the Kingdom, ignoring the safety of Royal Family Members, failing to capture illegal anomalous object holders effectively, beating the heir to the throne recklessly, causing the cleaning mission to affect the innocent, and almost leading to the extinction of a Great Noble family... He wrote over 30 points in total!
*Honestly... it's a good thing you hit him today. The complaint letter was sent in before the year-end review. Otherwise, with the strength of his complaint this time, we'd probably be dead last next year!*
After grumbling a bit, the Red-haired Director habitually took a wine bottle, intending to take a sip to ease his troubles. Still, after thinking about it, he put it back and instead picked up a cup of hot tea, smiling at the embarrassed Leon,
"Little Leon~ You brought me so much trouble today, shouldn't you take on a slightly more challenging task to make it up to me?"
Seeing the Red-haired Director's fox eyes squint, Leon instinctively felt something might be seriously wrong, but having just been caught in a tight spot, he could only nod resignedly.
The Red-haired Director tapped on the photo on the table with her hand and said with a smile,
"Once I lure Aquarius away during the audit and ensure there's no danger, how about you go undercover among the Rebels with it?"
