Let them offer their loyalty!

While contemplating this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look over the interrogation records of Wang Xi and Jia Wei once more.

Unfortunately, there was nothing in it that related to Jia Shu.

Tossing the record onto the desk, Qiu Tu clasped his hands behind his head, leaned back in his chair, and pondered in silence where else he could find clues…

As he thought, a sudden realization lit up Qiu Tu's eyes!

He remembered that he had once placed a [Silver Key Bee] on the Suit Man Jia Wei.

After recording 36 hours of Jia Wei's movements, the Silver Key Bee returned to him early yesterday morning and flew back to the beehive.

Perhaps because he had been asleep, Qiu Tu had not noticed its return, so he had pushed the matter to the back of his mind.

Now, wasn't it the perfect time to take a look?

Maybe within those 36 hours, he could find some clues?!

With this thought, Qiu Tu quickly pulled the thumb-sized [Silver Key Beehive] from his pocket.

Indeed, inside the beehive, four snow-white, slender Silver Key Bees lay quietly alongside one... a bloated, its body having turned black and lifeless bee.

Qiu Tu picked up the blackened Silver Key Bee and, with practiced ease, crushed it.

The next second, a scene flashed through Qiu Tu's mind like a movie reel, displaying the entire 36-hour record of the Suit Man Jia Wei after he left Qiu Tu.

Having used the Silver Key Bee before, Qiu Tu skillfully sped up the footage, hunting for information-rich clues.

Soon, he paused on a scene of Jia Wei conducting a perculiar ritual late at night in a villa.

In the scene, Jia Wei held an ancient, worn coin.

He rubbed the face of the coin three times with his thumb, then the back four times before respectfully placing it on a table.

The next second, the coin slowly evaporated into mist, floated up into the air, and formed into a human head...

The head looked to be that of a teenager, with an oval face, almond eyes, and strikingly beautiful features—it was none other than the Evil God Girl Larilo whom Qiu Tu had seen in his dreams…

At that moment, seeing that Jia Wei had established remote communication with Larilo, he quickly knelt down and, with utter devotion on his face and a respectful tone, said, "My God, I've met with Qiu Tu as you commanded."

"Don't say that. His dissolute demeanor really does have the potential to become one of us," Larilo chuckled at Jia Wei's words, her voice soft and seductive like a songstress's murmur, "You've marked him with my seal?"

Jia Wei replied reverently, "Yes, I have."

"And... I've also left him the most successful Madame Kong from your collection of works."

"I believe that once he experiences it himself, he'll understand that only the joy of reproduction is true bliss!"

After speaking, seeing Larilo nod her head coquettishly, Jia Wei asked cautiously, "But, my God, I still don't quite understand why you'd assign such an important task to a mere division chief like Qiu Tu."

"With so many of my incarnations, I could've easily killed my brother. Why bother with all these complications?"

At Jia Wei's words, Larilo laughed lightly and condescendingly looked down at him before saying, "Jia Wei, do you really think you're capable of killing your brother?"

"Not to mention the number of guards that surround him as a senior member of the Investigation Bureau."

"Let's talk about his own strength..."

She spoke lightheartedly, "You and he are of the same parents, closely related by blood, and your Cataclysmic abilities come from the same source."

"Your ability is Devouring-Splitting, and his is Devouring-Coalescence…"

"Although his ability has far more restrictions than yours, requiring certain conditions to devour, but... after all these years, he has devoured who knows how many Cataclysmics. His strength has advanced by leaps and bounds."

"If I'm not mistaken, he should be at the Second-order Peak now, only a step away from becoming a Third Order Cataclysmic..."

"Second-order Peak?!" At that moment, Jia Wei's pupils noticeably constricted.

He bowed his head, showing barely suppressed hatred, "I hadn't realized he'd progressed so quickly!"

"I've underestimated him!"

When Larilo saw Jia Wei starting to lose control again, she shook her head slightly and sharply reprimanded, "Calm down!"

Accompanied by her command, Jia Wei, as if a "Restart Key" had been pressed, truly calmed down quickly.

He glanced at Larilo with an apologetic face, "My God, I lost my composure."

Larilo laughed "giggly" a few times and said nonchalantly, "Your brother is your weakness. You must overcome this trial to reach a state of peace of mind…" Enjoy new adventures from empire

"It's not your fault."

"But precisely because he is your affliction, this time I want you to act as bait to lure your brother out."

"Lure him out?" Jia Wei did not quite understand.

Larilo's eyes narrowed mischievously, "Tonight, use your true body to seek out your brother for a meeting, ask for his help."

"Say that you've been targeted by Qiu Tu and hope that he can settle this matter so that Qiu Tu will stop pursuing you."

"With his cold-hearted nature, of course, he won't help you."

"But that's not a problem. Then you can use the past incident as leverage. Tell him if he doesn't help you, then you will reveal the truth about that old case to the public~~"

"The parents of the victims from that case are still alive and active in the political scene of the Planning Area."
