Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman, who felt as limp as water in his arms, felt her entire world wasn't right anymore.
What kind of good person doesn't say a word and starts with a 40-minute exercise up front!
After such a long exercise, how could she have any energy left to talk to him about things!
So tiring!
Thinking like this, inexplicably, Qin Shuman started to get a little petulant like a young girl. She turned around, with her back to Qiu Tu, refusing to pay him any attention.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu wasn't annoyed. He reached out and touched her smooth back, pinching here, tapping there.
After a mont, Qiu Tu seed to discover sothing astonishing, and exclaid in surprise, "Eh? How co you're back in 'Qin Shuman's' body again?"
"Has the Treasure's effect worn off, or did you do it on purpose?"
After he spoke, he paused, then added, "Can you still return to 'Rain Butterfly's' body like this?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's series of questions, Qin Shuman sat up angrily, saying irritably, "That's exactly what I wanted to talk to you about!"
After speaking, Qin Shuman also felt like she was a bit whiny.
So she cald herself down and regained her composure as the head of the Investigation Departnt. Only then did she touch the body she was in now and said, "Ever since the day you forcefully disabled my ability, I've discovered sothing magical."
"Even when my soul leaves, 'Qin Shuman's' body astonishingly doesn't decay, doesn't die."
"I found this phenonon very interesting, so I tried soaking her in nutrient fluid, or feeding her liquid food, then monitoring her with equipnt."
"As a result, I found that this body has been maintaining vital signs all along."
"It's like an empty shell without a soul, but all the body parts are autonomously functioning!"
As she said this, Qin Shuman was clearly a bit excited.
She said, "So, I had a bold idea. What if I could use her as my second body for a long ti!"
"That's why tonight I tried to possess this body again."
"Sure enough, it was just as I expected. I've beco 'Qin Shuman' again. Moreover... this ti, I can switch bodies freely and don't need you to disable my ability anymore."
Hearing Qin Shuman's words, Qiu Tu sat up in surprise.
Qin Shuman's discovery was crucial.
If 'Qin Shuman's' body is an empty shell without a soul that can be occupied by a new soul or exists independently of one...
Then... could 'Qiu Tu's' body be the sa?
And could it be because of this that Qiu Tu was able to traverse here and enter this body?!
Then the question arises.
What exactly did "Qiu Tu" and "Qin Shuman" experience that day to create such weird shells that could exist separately from their souls?
Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ask, "Have you figured out what happened the day we... possessed?"
Qin Shuman heard this and shook her head slightly.
She said, "These past few days, I've also sent people to search for clues. But... there's nothing noteworthy."
She paused for a mont before adding, "So... I'm now suspecting that what happened to us that day might not be related to the physical world."
"It could be related to the non-physical realm."
As she spoke, she pointed upwards, "It's very possible that so strange change occurred in the non-physical realm that day, affecting us, which led to this situation."
'So strange change in the non-physical world?'
Qiu Tu repeated Qin Shuman's words in his heart, and for so reason, thought of the 'God' that the suit man had ntioned.
Could it have sothing to do with that 'God'?
Sohow... Qiu Tu always felt that Xinjie City seed to be in the midst of so massive storm vortex...
After discussing Qin Shuman's matter, Qin Shuman naturally asked Qiu Tu what he wanted with her.
Qiu Tu didn't hide anything, proudly taking out the list from his pocket with the nas of the spies in the military for the Investigation Bureau.
Seeing this detailed list, Qin Shuman was thrilled!
The biggest pressures for Qin Shuman recently were two things: one was to solve the "Yin Caii case" for Qiu Tu. The other was... the safety of the spies planted by the Security Departnt within the Investigation Bureau.
She was still working on the first issue, and the second... she had been trying hard but to no avail! She never expected Qiu Tu to have solved it for her!
With this resolution, where could Qin Shuman find any reason to be upset, proceeding to reward Qiu Tu heartily...
[7 days (The ti to close the Yin Caii case)]
[4 days (The danger lurking in the darkness)]
...
The next day was the weekend, no work.
It was the day Qiu Tu and Chief Huang of the Logistics Equipnt Departnt had arranged to go to the horse racing club at the Feicui City Residence.
Early in the morning, Qiu Tu returned ho to his small abode on Old Alley Street, satisfied.
When he got ho, Shen Lingshuang was already awake, washing clothes.
When she heard Qiu Tu return, she ca out of the bathroom, with panda eyes glaring at Qiu Tu, muttering bitterly, "You dog of a man... not coming ho all night. You must have been out fooling around..."
Hearing this, Qiu Tu smiled faintly as he changed into his casual clothes and casually retorted, "That's slander, you know!"
"I definitely didn't go out fooling around."
"A friend's cat had two kittens, and she asked to help take care of them. But who knew, when I got to her place, she ended up washing my shoes and laundering my clothes."
"I couldn't very well go ho naked, could I?"
"So I had no choice but to wait for my clothes to dry before coming back!"
Hearing Qiu Tu's story that didn't have a shred of credibility, Shen Lingshuang was going crazy, "You're trying to fool a ghost here!"
"Go out on the street and ask anyone you drag in; who would believe that?"
"I believe..." As they were talking, a large, simple-looking head popped in from the door.
It was none other than Ah-Tai.
Seeing the two of them, he flashed a toothy grin, then said, "Brother Tu really is such a kind-hearted person."
"I rember one ti when I was a kid, the wife of so big shot had a plumbing issue at ho, and he was called to help. It took him all night to fix it, too."
Shen Lingshuang: ??
Is this really a defense?!
By that ti, Qiu Tu had changed into his clothes, and with a laugh, he patted Shen Lingshuang on the head, picked up her face, and kissed it, before leaving the house arm-in-arm with Ah-Tai.
All that was left was Shen Lingshuang with a flushed face, bubbles popping over her head... she had completely forgotten to be angry...
Easy-peasy!
Having left the house and arrived at his car, Qiu Tu's core team mbers: Eagle, Ah-Kun, several confidants from the Political Departnt: Cao Dabiao, Chen Feng, Ding Xiaoliu, Zhu Huoyan, and even Fang Ming, with whom he often collaborated, had all arrived.
These individuals had been briefed extensively over a period of ti and knew each other's identities, so they were all casually smoking and chatting.
All of them were dressed in uniforms of the Political Departnt and the Special Service Departnt, and each was ard with a gun, making the ordinary citizens of Old Alley Street quickly detour to avoid stirring trouble with this fearso group.
And yet, this gang of fearso figures promptly extinguished their cigarettes and greeted Qiu Tu in unison when they saw him approach: "Brother Tu!" "Brother Tu!" "Chief!" "Chief." "Chief Qiu."
Seeing this, Qiu Tu chuckled and nodded, "Looks like everyone's here."
After speaking, he looked around at the group.
This was the powerful team he had put together over half a month, and they were also key to the success of today's mission!
That's right, after a detailed discussion with Qin Shuman the previous night, Qiu Tu felt... investigating cases and making arrests should be done sooner rather than later.
Since Yan Chen had already handed over both the "Authorization Letter" and the "Special Arrest Warrant" to him, the best course was to strike with a surprise attack while the news had not yet fully spread!
Capture Qian Dafu, capture those few transports, capture Vice President Tian, capture Third Brother Qin, capture Director Qin (second house)—and then interrogate them slowly!
For Vice President Tian, it's inconvenient for Qiu Tu to take action, no problem. Qin Shuman can do it!
With the list of spies from the Investigation Bureau inside The military and the leads and intelligence on the connections between the Qin family, Vice President Tian, and the United Front provided by Qiu Tu, Qin Shuman is confident that her boss, Security Departnt Chief Dai Yukang, would be interested.
Moreover, compared to the intricate ties between City Hall, Investigation Bureau, and local forces, The military tends to be more independent and autonomous, without the need to look back and forth!
Thus, The military often represents the last line of defense for the cities in the Planning Area!
Therefore, those the Investigation Bureau dares not arrest, the Security Departnt dares to arrest! The cases that Qiu Tu finds challenging, the Security Departnt can help handle!
With the backing Qin Shuman gave him, the pressure Tang Feifei withstood from Jia Shu, and the "wrongly given" unlimited authorization from Yan Chen.
Qiu Tu was brimming with confidence today, determined to turn Xinjie City upside down!
Thinking this, Qiu Tu, who had snapped back to the present, proceeded to distribute today's plan to Cao Dabiao, Chen Feng, Eagle, and Fang Ming.
Actually, before calling these few n here, Qiu Tu hadn't inford them of what he intended to do today.
So when they saw the arrest orders and various authorization docunts personally signed by Qiu Tu, they were all astonished.
Even Fang Ming, who had witnessed so grand scenes with his elders, looked at Qiu Tu with a bewildered face, and hesitatingly asked, "Arrest Director Qin? Third Master Qin? And even a few big businessn?"
"Chief Qiu, won't this cause too much of a fuss?"
At this, he paused, then continued, "Moreover... that is the Deputy Division Chief after all."
"Although the 'Special Arrest Warrant' allows for the arrest of anyone below Director level."
"But... he's still one of us from the Investigation Bureau, should we not check with the higher-ups first?"
Hearing Fang Ming's words, Qiu Tu laughed and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I have everything arranged."
"Just follow the plan and make the arrest, bet he'll even thank you when you slap on the handcuffs."
Fang Ming: ??
For a mont, Fang Ming almost thought he had misheard.
He was supposed to arrest Director Qin and Director Qin would actually thank him?
Had he gone mad, or had Qiu Tu lost his mind?
For a while, Fang Ming felt utterly confused.
But compared with Fang Ming, who wasn't yet one of the confidants, the rest of the n were far more composed.
Individuals like Eagle and Ah-Kun, with loyalty levels exceeding 90 points, listened to whatever Qiu Tu said without a second thought.
And for Cao Dabiao, Chen Feng, Zhu Huoyan, Ding Xiaoliu, the new batch of confidants whose loyalty had skyrocketed to around 70.
