"Chairman Huang has already appointed him as the Court President of the Judiciary Court in the Dongye State Council,"
"And... it is said that Chairman Huang is letting it be known that this position is of utmost importance. Hence, he plans to allow the Court President to enter the Council, beco a mber of Parliant, and even serve as a deputy to State Speaker Liu, overseeing the Investigation Bureaus of sixteen cities."
Hearing Guan Xiao's words, Qiu Tu's gaze beca dark...
The position as Court President had indeed been predesignated.
However, becoming a mber of Parliant, let alone becoming the deputy to Liu Xiongyuan, had not been previously determined.
If this were true... then clearly things were just as Guan Xiao had said: Yan Chen had regained the trust of Huang Shangzong.
With this in mind, Qiu Tu chuckled softly.
Yan Chen's quick return to power was not unexpected to him.
After all... that was the man with whom he had dueled for several months, often gaining the upper hand.
Had it not been for Qiu Tu's remarkable ability to deceive and leverage his power for growth...
Coupled with a bit of good luck in a few bets, it's likely that Yan Chen would have already seized control of all of Xinjie City, reigning indisputably as the Local Tyrant!
Qiu Tu had always felt that if it weren't for him, given Yan Chen's ans, reaching the very top of the Sanctuary might be uncertain, but becoming a State Speaker and entering the upper echelons was a sure thing.
But... the cruelest part of history lies in the fact that no matter how nurous the heroes and formidable figures, once they lose the mont, they fall a step behind and keep falling behind...
Now, did Yan Chen wish to continue his ascent?
That would depend on whether Qiu Tu would grant him the opportunity...
Let's not forget, Qiu Tu had a trump card up his sleeve that had yet to be revealed, waiting just for this mont!
Of course...these high-level secrets were not to be revealed to Guan Xiao.
And so... thinking this... Qiu Tu then said to Guan Xiao, "Okay, I've got it, Section Chief Guan."
"You're doing an excellent job. Keep it up. I see great potential in you as my successor."
Having said that, Qiu Tu painted a few more enticing prospects for Guan Xiao, then finally hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Qiu Tu looked out the window at the rapidly receding scenery and silently pondered for a mont.
Then he picked up the Communicator again, found Yu Zhengyi's number, and composed a ssage.
"Yan Chen is about to make a coback. I have sothing that could bury him without a trace, interested?"
After typing the ssage, Qiu Tu pressed the send button.
Although his own conflict with Yan Chen ran deep...
The betrayal by Yu Zhengyi at the most critical mont, who had stabbed Yan Chen in the back, ant his conflict with Yan Chen was even deeper.
Moreover, compared to an enemy like himself, Yan Chen would probably hate Yu Zhengyi, the traitor who betrayed him, even more.
So... it was not himself, but Yu Zhengyi, who most feared Yan Chen's rise in Xinjie City...
A clever murderer never dirties his own hands.
Using soone else's knife to kill is the rule of kings...
With this in mind, Qiu Tu didn't bother to check for a response from Yu Zhengyi. Leaning back in the rear seat, he closed his eyes to rest, continuing on to the Investigation Bureau Office Building...
And, together with Tan Hui Min, they went up to the 12th floor.
At that ti, the high-level eting had already begun.
Secretaries of the high-level officials were stationed outside. Seeing Qiu Tu and Tan Huimin arrive, they promptly stood up and saluted.
Qiu Tu glanced at them and nodded slightly.
Tan Huimin stepped forward and knocked on the door. Shortly after, Su Xiaowan opened it.
Seeing Qiu Tu outside, she smiled, stepped aside, and whispered, "Chief, the Bureau Chief has been waiting for you for a long ti. The eting has been going on for half an hour already."
Hearing the ssage conveyed by Su Xiaowan, Qiu Tu nodded slightly, and as he walked towards the eting room, he smiled and said to several high-level officials inside, "I apologize, everyone. I went to investigate a clue outside the city yesterday and just got back."
The Political Departnt operated in secrecy, with classified work contents. Except for the Bureau Chief, no other departnt had the right to inquire.
Also, since there were occasional out-of-city missions, the expressions of the high-level officials remained unchanged, except for...
Tang Feifei, seated in the main spot.
She sat there, eyes slightly squinted, giving Qiu Tu a sowhat questioning look that seed to probe deeply...
Nonetheless, due to the relationship between the two, she did not speak, but simply pointed to Qiu Tu's seat and said, "Minister Qiu, please have a seat first."
"Xiaowan, give Minister Qiu the eting record to look at."
After that, she turned to the other high-level officials and said, "Let's... continue our discussion."
Taking the eting record from Su Xiaowan, Qiu Tu listened to the exchanges between the high-level officials while reading the record.
The content of the eting record was simple, mainly detailing the current situation of the Boundless Heart Sea; introducing the intelligence that Zhao Ji took down the ninth region last night; and finally, summarized the discussions of Xinjie City's Three Giants and the representatives of the Sanctuary's factions and families from last night and this morning.
Overall... the Three Giants of Xinjie City were sowhat reluctant to forgo this once-in-a-lifeti opportunity to change Xinjie City.
As for the Sanctuary's factions and family experts, opinions varied greatly with most holding reservations.
After all... the deterrence of a Fifth Order Evil God was still very strong.
Even the more optimistic experts hoped to hold off for a while, wait for a few days to send people to investigate, and attempt developnt only after ensuring there were no issues.
In essence, the presence mobilized by Qiu Tu truly intimidated the Sanctuary's various factions and family experts.
They had high status and could leave Xinjie City at any ti.
