After transcribing the report, Qiu Tu glanced at the ti.
It was already 8 PM.
Although he said Zheng Tao had delayed his departure from work to embarrass him, he had to admit that because of Zheng Tao, he really did end up working two extra hours.
Fortunately... the hours he slacked off during the day had just been made up for.
'So... it wasn't a loss?'
Thinking this, Qiu Tu looked out at the dark night sky, preparing to grab sothing to eat and then submit the report.
At that mont, however...
Suddenly, soone knocked on the office door with a "thud thud thud."
The visitor was clearly an insider, who, after knocking a few tis, naturally pushed the door open.
Qiu Tu looked up and then discovered Liu Fuping walking in with her graceful strides.
She obviously had already been ho because she had changed into casual clothes: a white blouse, black stockings, and a black skirt.
Feeling that such attire might not be sufficiently formal for the Investigation Bureau, she had also put on a black uniform from the Political Departnt.
But she might not have known that the black Political Departnt uniform, combined with the black stockings wrapped around her long legs, added a different kind of charm to her appearance...
And with the bulging chest under her uniform, her allure was truly irresistible.
"Qiu Tu, you haven't had dinner yet, right?"
Liu Fuping raised her hand to show the aluminum lunch boxes she was carrying and gave a gentle smile, "I made you sothing to eat."
Qiu Tu's eyes lit up; he felt the young woman was really considerate.
So he put away the report, set it aside, and patted the table, "Set it down."
Hearing Qiu Tu's command, Liu Fuping bent over, placed her hefty bosom on the table, then propped up her chin with her hand, and smilingly gazed at Qiu Tu...
Qiu Tu: ....
Damn, this woman really knows how to do it!
Qiu Tu licked his lips and then reached out to grab the food, ready to dive in right away.
But Liu Fuping suddenly rose up briskly and dodged with a giggle.
"Pop." She set the lunch boxes on the table, her beautiful eyes now brimming with laughter like a rainbow.
"Enough playing around, let's eat first."
Qiu Tu stroked his chin as he observed Liu Fuping and teased, "Sister Liu, with moves like that, do you think I can still focus on eating my dinner?"
Liu Fuping threw a coquettish glance at Qiu Tu, "If you can't eat, what else would you like to eat?"
Qiu Tu scanned Liu Fuping's bulging chest with a knowing smile.
Liu Fuping's voice took on a playful tone, as if cajoling a child, "Behave. After dinner, you'll get everything."
Qiu Tu looked at her intently for a mont, but ultimately decided to eat first.
After all, one needed to be well-fed to have the energy for the tasks ahead.
With that thought, Qiu Tu opened the lunch boxes, which contained two dishes and a portion of rice.
Both the appearance and the taste were good.
As he ate, Qiu Tu also praised her cooking, "Every ti I eat Sister Liu's cooking, I feel very fortunate."
"I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry Sister Liu in the future."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's playful words, Liu Fuping laughed so hard that her chest jiggled.
After the laughter, she leaned in close to Qiu Tu and whispered, "I don't need you to marry , just tell how you managed to make Little Qing an interrogation expert, will you?"
Upon hearing Liu Fuping's words, Qiu Tu's action of picking up food paused briefly, and then he toned down his smile, looking up at her.
Possibly sensing Qiu Tu's misunderstanding, Liu Fuping quickly explained, "Don't get wrong. It's not that Commissioner Jiang or Director Liu asked to inquire."
"It's just my own simple curiosity."
She said with a laugh, "You wouldn't know, but ever since the interrogation of Jia Wei, Little Qing's tail has almost been wagging."
"She even stopped leaving work early as she used to but instead started strutting around the entrances of the Political Departnt with hands behind her back, enjoying everyone's envious glances."
"We asked her quietly how she did the interrogation, what secrets you told her."
"But she holds her head high and is too full of herself to say anything."
At the end of her account, Liu Fuping was laughing with exasperation.
Upon hearing her words, Qiu Tu slowly lowered his head and continued with his al.
Sensing Qiu Tu's contemplation, Liu Fuping felt sowhat uncertain inside, wondering if she had sohow touched a sensitive topic.
After so consideration, she then spoke softly, "Does it have sothing to do with your Cataclysmic ability?"
"If that's the case, then pretend I didn't ask."
Hearing this, Qiu Tu chuckled and replied, "It has nothing to do with the Cataclysmic ability. But... indeed, it's even more sensitive than that."
He said, "Since you've asked, I won't keep it from you."
"In a mont, co with to see Jia Wei. This matter is related to you anyway."
"?" Liu Fuping blinked her attractive eyes, looking a bit puzzled.
But Qiu Tu didn't explain any further; instead, he began to gobble up his al insanely.
By the ti he was "gulping" down his last mouthful and had just put down his chopsticks, Liu Fuping had already handed him a glass of water.
Qiu Tu glanced at her, picked up the water, and took a sip.
As he put down the glass, a tender, boneless hand reached out to his lips with a tissue, considerately wiping his mouth.
'This is a married woman for sure!'
'Give her butt a pat, and she knows whether to kneel or to lie down.'
After a mont of reflection, Qiu Tu stood up from his chair and then said, "Alright! Let's go! Let's et Jia Wei and clear up the doubts in your mind!"
Having said that, Qiu Tu took the lead and headed outside the office.
Seeing this, Liu Fuping followed with a smile in her eyes.
Soon, the two arrived at the Guard Room on the ninth floor.
It was still Wang Dawei on duty tonight, one of their own, so after Qiu Tu greeted him, he brought Jia Wei out.
After taking Jia Wei to a separate interrogation room, Qiu Tu had Liu Fuping close the door, then said, "This is a secret interrogation, it won't be recorded in the archives."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Jia Wei, already tornted by Zheng Tao beyond recognition, grinned and bared his teeth in a laugh.
He raised his head from his disheveled hair, his swollen eyes giving Liu Fuping a sinister look, and then said, "It seems she is a confidant you trust."
Qiu Tu shrugged his shoulders, saying noncommittally, "Sort of."
Jia Wei's face was full of mockery, "Then does she know about your betrayal of humanity and your allegiance to 'God'?"
Upon hearing Jia Wei's words, Liu Fuping was suddenly startled, then looked incredulously at Qiu Tu.
Qiu Tu, however, nonchalantly waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
"I've just had so communication with Her Highness Larilo." (Chapter 184)
Seeing Liu Fuping's continued shock, Qiu Tu then sat in a chair, pointed towards Jia Wei, and thodically introduced him, "Jia Wei, the brother of Jia Shu, a follower of the Evil God Larilo."
"Hmm... he is also the murderer that Director Liu has been searching for for many years."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Fuping's eyes widened sharply, and then she turned towards Jia Wei.
Because Qiu Tu hadn't shared the information with Liu Fuping previously, she did not know that Jia Wei was indeed the murderer in that past case.
Realizing this, Qiu Tu reminded her, "His Cataclysmic ability, you should have known when interrogating Wang Xi, relates to Devouring and Puppetry."
"But what you don't know is... the body before us is not his True Body, but a Puppet."
Hearing Qiu Tu's reminder, Liu Fuping indeed cooled off and gradually cald down.
Qiu Tu continued, "That's also why Zheng Tao got no results even after a whole day of interrogation."
"He is a Puppet controlled by the True Body, albeit with certain self-consciousness, but... If the True Body doesn't allow him to reveal the secrets, he definitely won't."
"Even under a hundred tortures or a hundred doses of Potion, he wouldn't speak."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Fuping roughly guessed the whole truth behind the interrogation.
She looked at Qiu Tu and added, "So... the reason you burst into the interrogation room was to convey a ssage to him."
"To let him know that you and Zheng Tao are adversaries. Your bet with Zheng Tao was also to tell him, in fact, to tell him the ti to co and 'rescue' him."
Qiu Tu smiled and nodded, "Exactly."
"I had previously warned Zheng Tao: to alert a prisoner and communicate ssages does not require direct conversation."
"A simple gesture, a simple secret code. Even just appearing before soone can convey enough information." (Chapter 189)
Upon hearing this, Liu Fuping continued, "And the reason Little Qing managed to pry open his mouth and get a confession... it actually didn't matter what she did, it was simply because... she was chosen by you."
Qiu Tu smiled and nodded again, "Yes. I actually didn't teach Song Qing any interrogation thods."
"I just told her a spell imbued with Supernatural Power: 'Palace Jade Liquor, 180 per cup.'"
"Recite this Curse, and it will make the prisoner speak willingly."
"That's why she was so surprised at first."
Liu Fuping took a deep breath, then inquired, "So what agreent did you actually reach with that Evil God?"
"Why would She have Her follower cooperate with you to such an extent?"
Qiu Tu casually replied, "That's a story that involves you, or rather... Director Liu behind you."
