Me? The director of the Asylum of All Heavens!

Chapter 27 Jinx and Ziggs

At this time, Jinx was hiding in Caitlyn's room waiting for them to come back from the meeting. Maybe because she was too sleepy, she actually fell asleep on Caitlyn's big bed.

……

"My dear, I didn't expect you to agree to our daughter's willful request. Aren't you worried that something might happen to her?"

Caitlin's father came home, put down his umbrella and asked worriedly.

"Catlyn has grown up and has her own ideas. As a mother, I can't always go against her, right? Instead of using my connections to stop her from doing what she wants, it's better to follow her heart and let her be an honest law enforcer in Piltover. At least in Piltover, we and Jayce are looking after her. If she disappears again and runs to Boreal and gets hurt, I really don't know how I would face myself."

Caitlin's mother said as she changed her shoes and took off her gloves.

"Our daughter is just like you. She has been strong-willed since she was young. This is a good thing." Caitlin's father pulled her to sit on the sofa and gently stroked the back of her hand to comfort her.

Caitlin's mother's eyes softened and she sighed:
"To be honest, she is my daughter. How can I not be worried? I just hope that everything goes well for them this time."

While Caitlyn's parents were showing their love, Jinx was sleeping soundly in Caitlyn's bedroom.

There was peace and tranquility in the mansion.

Suddenly a large furry head appeared outside Caitlin's bedroom window, and lightning illuminated the wet fur.

"pat..."

The window was opened and the furry creature crawled into Caitlin's bedroom.

Jinx was awakened, and she reflexively pulled out her gun and aimed.

"Wait, it's me..." The person who came was a cute, furry Yodel wearing goggles.

"Oh, little brat! My little conscience! I thought I lost you!" Jinx jumped off the bed happily and hugged the wet baby.

This Yordle is not Heimerdinger, he is Ziggs. Jinx once thought that he was just a figment of her imagination, or perhaps something she had never seen before - "conscience".

But he is actually also an inventor, a mad scientist obsessed with explosives. In Ziggs' eyes, Jinx is his confidant, and they both like explosions.

But it wasn't until the Evolution Day bombing some time ago that Ziggs realized the difference between them.

He loves pranks, and Jinx is a total lunatic.

He didn't expect that the explosives he provided would help Jinx kill so many law enforcement officers. This made Ziggs very upset, so he left Jinx.

Ziggs still had some grudges against Jinx, and he struggled to escape from her arms.

Jinx calmed down and frowned:
"Little Conscience, you shouldn't show up at this time. Your appearance always reminds me that what I'm doing now is wrong. Like last time, you tried to stop me from blowing up the Piltover Enforcer's guard station. Do you remember what you said at that time?"

"You said I would never forgive myself for killing these law enforcement officers. I think those law enforcement officers don't have a hairy little conscience to tell them what they should and shouldn't do, so they hurt us so unscrupulously."

"I thought they deserved their death, but guess what? Because of you, I felt guilty for a moment as I watched those officers burn. It made me sad. It lasted about eight seconds, which is a record. You should be proud of yourself."

Jinx said this with a beaming look on her face, stepping back one step at a time.

"Wait, what did you do?" Giggs felt a little uneasy as a creaking mechanical sound was heard behind him.

"But Jinx is Jinx! Let's blow away all our moral consciences! No one can stop my grand party this time!"

"Party?"

"That's right, I invited Caitlin, my sister, and Hilco to this party, and guess who wasn't invited! It's you! My little conscience!"

Jinx covered her ears with laughter, she had already put her clip bomb on Ziggs' back during the hug.

"Wait, you crazy guy! I didn't want to come here either. Someone asked me to find you!"

Giggs danced around trying to remove the bomb behind him, but his short hands couldn't reach behind him.

"You're so nice, you little conscience." Jinx laughed and hid behind Caitlin's big bed.

"Wait, don't do that!"

"Puff!" The bomb behind Giggs sprayed out colorful dust, staining his face.

Ziggs rubbed his head and breathed a sigh of relief after realizing that this was just Jinx's bored prank.

"Don't worry, I'm not crazy enough to 'intentionally' blow up my good friend!"

Jinx came out, pinched Ziggs' face, rubbed his furry little head, and said something meaningful.

"I guess you're not my conscience, right? I recently met a new friend, a Yodel. He made me realize that maybe what I saw wasn't all an illusion, at least you're not an illusion."

Jinx rubbed Ziggs's furry hair and confirmed what she was thinking.

Sure enough, the touch is the same as Heimerdinger.

"Yes, he was the one who asked me to find you." Giggs sighed.

Giggs has been living a very quiet life these days, fearing that someone might discover his connection with the bombing.

He once wanted to run to Zaun, but the Twin Cities Bridge was under martial law and he had no chance to get across.

Homeless, he could only wander around Piltover, but Heimerdinger finally found him.

a few hours ago…

"These days, I have been wondering who in Piltover could provide that little lunatic with so much high explosives. She couldn't have carried so much explosives by herself to hide from the inspection of the law enforcement officers. As expected, I heard from her that an old friend of mine..."

Heimerdinger found Ziggs in a cake shop and told him the secret that Ziggs feared most like an old friend.

"Ahem...are you here to laugh at me? Tell me you were right all along, that explosions can hurt people. But I...I just enjoy the fun of explosions, I never mean to hurt anyone."

Ziggs was eating a cake at the time, and when he found Heimerdinger coming to his door, he almost choked to death.

Ziggs and Heimerdinger are very familiar with each other. Ziggs used to be Heimerdinger's assistant, and he also dreamed of becoming a great inventor like Heimerdinger.

"It has already happened. It is too late to repent. Everyone should be responsible for what they have done. As the chairman of the parliament, I neglected management and was expelled from the parliament. Now I have decided to make up for my mistakes in education, teach and educate people, and guide young people who have gone astray to use their talents in the right way. What about you? Are you willing to take responsibility for your mistakes?"

Heimerdinger walked up to Ziggs and picked up a piece of cake in front of him and started eating.

"Of course I would like to, but what can I do? I can only throw bombs and cause damage. Doing good things has never suited me," said Giggs dejectedly.

"There's something you can help with right now. Wow, this cake is delicious. The taste hasn't changed at all over the years. Boss, give me two more." Heimerdinger said while tasting the cake.

"What's the matter?" Giggs asked curiously.

"Jinx, the little lunatic who caused the bombing, is in Upper Town again. I need you to help me find her and prevent her from causing harm to Piltover again." Heimerdinger said, tapping the table lightly.

"What? She's in Piltover again?" Ziggs had some concerns about Jinx. Hearing this, he jumped off the chair and dodged.

"So I need you to help me find her." Heimerdinger said while eating cake.

It seems that Yodels like to eat this kind of sweet little cake. No wonder the policewoman put the little cake on the clamp and named it Yodel Trap.

"Find her, then what?" Giggs asked.

"Don't worry, I've seen that child. She doesn't look that evil, but she seems to have some mental problems. She needs to be held accountable for her crimes. She may have to be imprisoned in Stillwater Prison for ten years, or be treated in a mental hospital. But I can guarantee that everyone has the opportunity to reform, and I will give her such an opportunity and try to reduce her sentence. Think about it, only ten years, it will pass in the blink of an eye, and when she comes out she will only be in her twenties. By then, I will invite her to study at Piltover Academy and let her use her smart little brain in the right way. This is also a good thing for her, do you understand?" Heimerdinger said seriously.

Ziggs really wanted to atone for his mistakes, so he brought Heimerdinger to find Jinx.

……

"I think you have seen him. He is the one who asked me to find you."

Ziggs said as he made way for the window, and Jinx then noticed that there was a short-legged Yodel outside the window, struggling to climb up to the window.

"Professor Heimerdinger?"
