Chapter 142 Qin Shuman: I'm toxic~ (1.2 words, 1/3)
At this moment, upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Chen Feng and Cao Dabiao glanced at Qiu Tu's departing figure, then at the two corpses inside the house, and their hearts trembled.
At this moment, they seemed to remember Qiu Tu's decisiveness in dealing with the enemy and his ability to manipulate people's hearts and minds.
'Even if my superior isn't a Cataclysm, he's no ordinary person.'
Thinking this, the two exchanged a glance and quickly followed Qiu Tu's instructions to go inside and deal with the scene.
When Qiu Tu shot Old Master Qin, he had already planned out his aftermath and his explanation, so the two of them didn't need to think about it anymore. They just needed to follow Qiu Tu's plan and recreate the scene.
So, very quickly, a murder scene was reconstructed.
After setting up the scene, the two stood in the empty villa hall, looking around. The once magnificent living room was now a scene of devastation, and the villa's former owner lay dead in a pool of blood. Coupled with the pervasive stench of blood inside and outside the villa, it truly felt like stepping into another world.
After surveying the hall and looking at the busy detectives outside the window, Cao Dabiao thought for a moment, then whispered to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, the reinforcements from the station should be arriving soon. Do you think... we should silence the others first?"
Only Cao Dabiao and Chen Feng knew about Qiu Tu's shooting of Old Master Qin, so Cao Dabiao's talk of keeping quiet clearly didn't refer to that incident, but rather to... Qiu Tu shooting and killing more than a dozen members of the alliance in just over twenty seconds.
Therefore, Chen Feng hesitated a bit after hearing Cao Dabiao's words.
But after hesitating for two seconds, he finally nodded and said, "They should definitely keep quiet."
"I guess the commander doesn't want this matter to become a big deal either."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Otherwise... the officer wouldn't have changed guns three times to kill the enemy."
Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Cao Dabiao's face immediately showed a look of realization. "Yes! What you said makes sense!"
However, after agreeing, the two of them paused for a moment, then looked at each other, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
My superior really thinks three steps ahead for every one step he takes.
Beforehand, when Cao Dabiao brought over the middle-aged man's corpse and the rifle in his hand, he had already planned how Old Master Qin would die.
And now it seems... he probably already had a prepared explanation for the aftermath when he fired the gun.
'That's really scary....'
Is this the difference between a prodigy and an ordinary person?
Thinking this through, the two dared not continue to speculate on Qiu Tu's thoughts, and instead quickly began to gather the detectives to silence him.
As for whether the surviving members of the alliance will leak information?
The two were not worried.
Putting aside the crimes committed by these alliance members and their low-level status with little value, they would most likely be executed on the spot, making it impossible for them to leak secrets.
Even if they weren't executed on the spot, but instead taken back to the Political Department for interrogation, don't forget... the interrogation section is Qiu Tu's territory...
......
Meanwhile.
Qin Shuman was also discussing this issue with Qiu Tu, "You used the Cataclysmic Ability in front of so many people, aren't you afraid that Yan Chen and Jia Shu will find out?"
Qiu Tu smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's time for them to know."
"Chess pieces also have different values. Only those with higher values will be valued more, right?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Shuman immediately realized that Qiu Tu had considered all the consequences before using his ability.
So she didn't press the matter further, but instead trusted her and stopped the conversation, returning to the case.
"To be honest, if it weren't for the information you provided, we really wouldn't have guessed that 'Qin Heng' wasn't actually Qin Heng, but rather Old Master Qin, and that he even had two bodies."
"No wonder he remained so composed despite our shifts of interrogation these past two days."
“We previously speculated that Qin Heng had received professional training and was used to these interrogations.”
"Unexpectedly, he was using another body to go out and have fun during the interrogation."
At this point, Qin Shuman laughed in anger, "And, they played with three at once! It's ridiculous!"
Hearing this, Qiu Tu seemed to picture Qin Shuman and the other security personnel relentlessly increasing the intensity on "Qin Heng," while "Qin Heng" wore a completely comfortable expression...
After all, how could it not be fun playing Jenga with three girls?
So, Qin Shuman and the others were probably completely baffled at the time, wondering if "Qin Heng" was a masochist...
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but smile.
After laughing, Qin Shuman got back to business, saying, "However, now that you've destroyed his other body, he probably won't be able to hold on much longer."
"I will give you a copy of his interrogation record after the interrogation is over."
"The part about 'God' might be classified and I can't give you a written record. I'll tell you about it in person when we meet sometime."
Qiu Tu hummed in agreement and naturally followed up, "Then... I look forward to the day we meet."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman chuckled softly and asked in a gentle voice, "Are you just looking forward to meeting me?"
Qiu Tu smiled upon hearing this and said, "Of course I also look forward to being with you..."
"Have a couple of drinks."
It was a very simple sentence, but when it was split into two parts, it suddenly became quite ambiguous.
Qin Shuman chuckled twice on the other end of the phone and said deliberately, "That won't do."
Qiu Tu, "Why?"
Qin Shuman's voice was a little slurred, and she drawled out, "Because... there's poison in my wine."
Qiu Tu asked in confusion, "Poisonous?"
Qin Shuman: "Yes. It's addictive."
Qiu Tu smiled. "I'm not afraid."
Qin Shuman laughed even more happily, "But I'm scared."
Qiu Tu, "Are you scared?"
Qin Shuman hummed in agreement, her voice alluring, "I'm afraid... you won't be able to handle it."
Hearing Qin Shuman's teasing words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but smile. "Then it seems I... should give it a try."
After saying that, he added, "By the way, are you sure you meant drinking?"
"Hehehe." Qin Shuman was laughing uncontrollably at this point.
Hearing Qin Shuman's happy smile, Qiu Tu also smiled, and then he joked, "Alright, bring on whatever tricks you have, as long as it's yours... I'll take it."
Hearing Qiu Tu's frank words of love, Qin Shuman on the other end of the phone laughed even louder...
After a brief chat, Qin Shuman reluctantly hung up the phone. Then, holding the communicator, she gazed out the window with a smile, lost in thought for a moment…
I stared at it for three or four seconds.
Suddenly, an unfamiliar cough came from behind her, "Cough cough..."
Qin Shuman woke up with a start and turned around. She saw her subordinate, Lin Zuo, standing in front of her desk with a look of utter despair.
Qin Shuman was taken aback for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "When did you come in?"
Lin Zuo: "It all started with the poison in the wine."
He paused, then asked expressionlessly, "Is the section chief really planning to poison Qiu Tu?"
"I have a bottle of poison here. It will kill him instantly if he drinks it. Do you want to borrow it?"
"Or... you two can force-feed it to me."
Lin Zuo is fucking fed up with this dog food.
This time it was Qin Shuman's turn to cough. She coughed twice, then quickly changed the subject, "Don't talk about personal matters while working! Um... I called you here today because I have a task for you..."
"Qiu Tu provided a clue. He said there's a man who likes to wear a clown mask and has red hair..."
As Qin Shuman got down to business, Lin Zuo's expressionless face gradually turned serious...
.....
At this time.
After finishing his phone call with Qin Shuman, Qiu Tu returned to the villa to handle the aftermath.
Perhaps because of their heroic efforts in turning the tide today, which greatly boosted their loyalty, the loyalty of this group of agents generally reached around 70-80. Therefore, when facing Qiu Tu, they all looked at him with fervor.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu didn't sit idly by. He struck while the iron was hot, stopping to check on each detective to stabilize the newly increased loyalty.
And so, more than ten minutes passed.
Not long after he won people's hearts, several Model T cars full of agents sped over from a distance, kicking up dust!
Behind the car, more temporary agents ran after it, heading towards the villa.
Upon arriving at the villa's entrance, several Model T vehicles screeched to a halt, and a team of agents jumped out and began to nervously set up a perimeter around the villa.
Clearly... this is the reinforcement that Qiu Tu had Liu Fuping call for.
The only pity is... just like the law of countless movies and TV dramas: reinforcements always arrive late, after the enemy has been annihilated.
At this moment, the team of agents clearly realized that they seemed to be late, so after hesitating for a moment, they sent a tall, thin agent into the villa to check the situation.
Upon entering the villa, the tall, thin detective hadn't taken two steps forward when Ding Xiaoliu and Jiao Ming, who were on guard at the door, stepped forward and stopped him. "Political Department is handling this case! Which department are you from?"
Upon hearing Ding Xiaoliu's words, the detective quickly replied with an awkward smile, "Sir, we are detectives from the Xiafang Street Police Station. We received orders from the station to come and provide support."
After speaking, he glanced around the scene and then cautiously asked, "Excuse me... am we too late?"
Upon hearing the agent's words, Ding Xiaoliu and Jiao Ming exchanged a glance, and then Ding Xiaoliu said smugly, "We're too late. The enemy has already been wiped out."
After saying that, he said, "Let your superior come see our section chief."
"Yes, sir!" The agent saluted, then turned and left the villa.
In fact, both Ding Xiaoliu and Jiao Ming are Level 3 agents, the same level as the agent in front of them.
However... the Political Department, as the ace department of the Investigation Bureau, also has the power of internal supervision and has always been half a rank higher than other departments.
So, let alone being both Level 3 agents, even among deputy section chiefs, deputy section chiefs from other departments are always half a head lower than the deputy section chief of the Political Department...
Not long after the detective left the villa, a chubby man in uniform with a commanding air followed him in.
The fat man had clearly rushed over after receiving orders; his face was covered in sweat and he looked rather disheveled.
Judging from his shoulder insignia with one bar and two flowers, he should be the director of the police station, one rank higher than Qiu Tu, and can be considered a proper section chief.
Upon arriving at the villa, the fat man's beady eyes scanned the blood-soaked scene, then he keenly spotted Qiu Tu examining Li Xian's injuries...
At that moment, his eyes lit up, and he ran over in a flash with his short legs, smiling obsequiously as he extended his hand first, "Section Chief Qiu, hello, hello. My name is Cui Daren, and I am the director of the Xiafang Street Police Station."
Hearing his enthusiastic introduction, Qiu Tu keenly sensed something amiss. He stood up, but instead of hastily shaking the section chief's hand, he first inquired, "Director Cui, do you know me?"
Cui Daren wiped the sweat from his brow, sighed, and said, "Section Chief Qiu is joking. How could I not know you? I'm your subordinate!"
Qiu Tu:? ?
Qiu Tu looked at Cui Daren's shoulder insignia and confirmed that he was a legitimate section chief.
As a deputy section chief, even in a special department like the Political Department, I am at most only half a rank higher than the official I am dealing with. How could someone who can show off their power in front of a deputy section chief possibly be the leader of a proper section chief?
Thinking about this, Qiu Tu had even more doubts.
At this moment, perhaps noticing Qiu Tu's confusion, Cui Daren smiled and explained, "Section Chief Qiu, you may have a bad memory."
"Just yesterday, your Political Department approved our Public Security Bureau's [application for assistance in the investigation], and then appointed you as the head of the [August 8.16th Drug Robbery Case Investigation Team]."
“From that time on, our Xiafang Street Police Station, as well as the members of the previous investigation team, were all temporarily placed under your leadership.”
"So, we are all your subordinates!"
Cui Daren is clearly a bit of a chatterbox; once he starts talking, he can't stop.
He said, "Let me tell you, we've really been at our wits' end lately. This case is just too difficult to solve; we don't have a single piece of information or clue!"
"So, we've been waiting with bated breath for a master to come and save us!"
"Now that you're here, we can finally relax!"
Upon hearing Cui Daren's words, Qiu Tu finally understood why the official section chief in front of him claimed to be his subordinate.
