Let them offer their loyalty!

'Six-sided spy?'

'Do I have a bit too many identities?'

After silently mocking himself in his heart, Qiu Tu packed up the pile of communicators, stepped out of the residential house, got into his car, and drove to the Investigation Bureau's office building.

Upon arriving at the Investigation Bureau's office building, Qiu Tu noticed many strange looks directed at him had increased.

Qiu Tu found it a bit odd, but he didn't pay it any mind—after all, once he returned to the investigative team, someone would naturally tell him the reason.

As expected, once he got to the investigative team's office, Cao Dabiao pulled Qiu Tu aside with an air of mystery and whispered, "Brother Tu, let me tell you. The candidate for the new Deputy Division Chief of the Public Security Bureau has already been decided."

Qiu Tu was startled for a second, somewhat surprised, "That fast?"

Cao Dabiao hurriedly nodded, "Exactly what I'm saying!"

After that, he threw a new question at Qiu Tu, "Brother Tu, do you know who the new Deputy Division Chief candidate is?"

Qiu Tu couldn't help but ask, "Who is it?"

Cao Dabiao said with an air of mystery, "Your former supervisor, the Interrogation Section Chief, Zheng Tao."

Hearing Cao Dabiao's words, Qiu Tu fell into thought and soon felt it wasn't surprising anymore.

Zheng Tao was always a confidant of Yan Chen, constantly buttering up the Bureau Chief with sycophantic praise.

Add to that his actual ability to get things done; when the Public Security Bureau ended work at 6 pm, he could make the people in the Interrogation Section work until midnight.

While this made the agents in the Interrogation Section miserable, it also earned him ample political achievements. Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire

So, making him take over Qiu Tu's promotion slot was actually reasonable and justifiable.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly and then said with a smile, "That's pretty good. Looks like I should congratulate my old boss."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Cao Dabiao became a little anxious and said, "Brother Tu... you still don't understand."

"For Zheng Tao to confirm his position within just one day and then immediately take office clearly exceeds common sense."

"The Organizational Department must have received directives from the Bureau Chief, exercising special measures for special cases."

"So, he must be targeting you!"

Saying this, Cao Dabiao sneakily looked around, made sure no one was paying attention, and then continued in a lower voice, "And think about it, Brother Tu."

"Why did the Bureau Chief appoint Zheng Tao as the Deputy Division Chief this time?"

Qiu Tu said with a smile, prompting further, "Why?"

Cao Dabiao lowered his voice and said, "Because he was once your supervisor. He naturally has a psychological advantage and can handle you more easily."

"Plus, some members of the investigative team are from the Interrogation Section. They are your subordinates, but they were also subordinates to Zheng Tao."

"If Zheng Tao calls them over for a bit of brainwashing, there's no telling if some of them might waver in their loyalty."

Qiu Tu looked at Cao Dabiao with a hint of surprise, not expecting Cao Dabiao to also have such insights.

So, he encouraged Cao Dabiao by patting his shoulder, "You've thought of so much, showing you've indeed made some progress recently."

After that, Qiu Tu reassured him, "But... don't worry. I have a handle on this situation."

Seeing that Qiu Tu wasn't surprised or panicked by his words, Cao Dabiao instantly knew that Qiu Tu probably had figured everything out the moment he received the news.

He also felt relieved.

Then he asked, "So, Chief, what do we do next?"

Qiu Tu said with a smile, "Next, we're going to interrogate Jia Wei."

"Interrogate Jia Wei?" Cao Dabiao looked surprised.

He whispered persuasively, "Chief, Jia Wei really is a tough nut to crack."

"Besides, he's extremely foul-mouthed, spewing all sorts of insults."

"Otherwise... maybe this interrogation task should be left to us."

Qiu Tu patted Cao Dabiao on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. My interrogation methods are different from yours."

Having said that, Qiu Tu clapped his hands and then addressed the other confidants in the office who were busy at work, "Everyone, stop what you're doing for a moment."

"Our case is nearing the end."

"Both suspects have been caught, one of whom has confessed and provided relevant clues and evidence."

At this point, Qiu Tu glanced at Chen Feng, then said, "Yesterday, Agent Chen Feng followed the suspect's clues and evidence and obtained the relevant proof."

"So, today, we just need to finish recording the last suspect's statement, and the entire case will be satisfactorily closed."

"Let's all push a bit harder today."

"Once we close the case tomorrow, I'll give everyone a few days of paid leave!"

"Hooray! ヾ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ" Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the Spiral-Up Expert Song Qing was the first to jump up and cheer in support.

The other agents also echoed with smiles.

No one dislikes a holiday. If you could get paid without working, probably 99% of people would choose to rest at home.

Just like that, after boosting morale, Qiu Tu led his confidants to the ninth floor of the Political Department's Guard Room in a grand manner.

Since Wang Xi and Jia Wei both possess Catastrophe Power, the Public Security Bureau didn't have an area suitable for detaining such prisoners, so they had to be temporarily held in the Political Department's Guard Room.

However, upon arriving at the Political Department's Guard Room, something strange happened—Jia Wei had vanished.

"What in the world is going on! Where has our prisoner gone?!"

Qiu Tu was now quite formidable himself, so when he discovered that Jia Wei was not in his holding cell, Cao Dabiao, without waiting for Qiu Tu to take action, took it upon himself to confront the agent in charge of the Guard Room directly, shouldering his one-star rank and demanding answers.

Facing Cao Dabiao's questioning, the agent's face was full of embarrassment and difficulty.

He glanced at the dozens of agents behind Qiu Tu, then at Qiu Tu, who stood out like a star among them, his face filled with hesitation.

After a moment, he let out a deep sigh, then bypassed Cao Dabiao, and rushed over to Qiu Tu, saying quietly, "Chief... I can tell you where the prisoner has gone. But... you mustn't say that it was me who told you."

Upon hearing the agent's words, Qiu Tu's face broke into a smile. He hooked his arm around the agent's neck, "I remember you. You're Wang Dawei, right?"

"When I came to release Section Chief Bai, it was you who opened the door for me."

At his name being correctly called out by Qiu Tu, Wang Dawei's face lit up with surprise and delight.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu continued smiling and said, "Don't worry, I'm a man of my word. If I promised not to tell, I definitely won't."

"So, spill it, what's really going on."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Wang Dawei finally showed no more signs of hesitation. Clenching his teeth and stamping his foot, he whispered to Qiu Tu, "Chief, the truth is... someone wants to steal your credit."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu said "Oh?" with interest, his eyes flickering as he guessed who it might be, "Chief Zheng? Oh, no... it should be Director Zheng?"
