Then let them offer their loyalty!

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman on the other end of the phone raised her hand and rubbed her temples.

She looked up at the clock on the dimly lit office wall and belatedly realized that it was already 7 p.m.

She got up, made herself a cup of coffee, walked to the window, and then replied to Qiu Tu, "Sigh... I've been a bit tired lately."

She said, "Six months ago, an unusual storm from the 'Boundless Sea of ​​the Heart' descended upon the disaster zone between the New Territories and Dongcheng."

"At the time, several surrounding cities quietly deployed defenses for this purpose. It wasn't until about a month and a half ago that the storm gradually subsided."

"I thought this matter was over and done with."

"But who knew that just two weeks ago, experts discovered that the storm from the 'Boundless Sea of ​​the Mind' seemed to have altered the actual terrain."

"A Moonlight Lake may be forming..."

"Moonlight Lake?" Qiu Tu asked, somewhat puzzled. "What's that?"

Qin Shuman said, "It's a lake formed from countless drops of 'Moonlight Tears,' a material used in cataclysmic events."

"According to experts, this newly formed Moonlight Lake can produce approximately 1.3 tons of Moonlight Tears..."

Qiu Tu was really startled when he heard Qin Shuman's words.

He was no stranger to the Tears of Moonlight.

Although this is not a rare Cataclysmic material, it is a material used to make the [Cataclysmic Awakening Potion].

It was thanks to Moonlight Tears and Aurora Stone that Shen Lingshuang was able to create the first two bottles of Cataclysmic Potion for him.

Although Qiu Tu didn't know the exact weight of the bottle of cataclysmic potion, he estimated it to be no more than 20g.

One bottle of Cataclysmic Potion requires 20g of Moonlight Tears.

And 1.3 tons of Moonlight Tears is enough to make 65000 bottles of Cataclysmic Potion!

What an enormous benefit this is!

Therefore, Qiu Tu didn't even need Qin Shuman to explain; he understood why Qin Shuman had been so tired these past few days.

As the head of the intelligence department of the security bureau, Qin Shuman's most important task now is probably to find out when Moonlight Lake was truly created, and... to find out the forces behind it that are eyeing this Moonlight Lake.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu's eyes suddenly flashed as he recalled some crisis warnings he had received when he first transmigrated to this world.

At that time, his "crisis sense" reminded him that Yan Chen was caught in a huge storm and had no time to worry about him. (Chapters 14 and 19)

Based on the timeline, if I'm not mistaken... it should also be related to that Moonlight Lake, right?

After all, as one of the three giants of the New Territories, the only thing that could make Yan Chen flustered was a sudden situation representing huge interests.

After a quick mental calculation, Qiu Tu came to his senses and comforted Qin Shuman, "Such huge profits can indeed easily attract all sorts of petty scoundrels."

"As the head of intelligence for the security department, you must be working very hard."

"But take care of your health and don't overwork yourself."

Hearing Qiu Tu's heartfelt concern, Qin Shuman, who was standing by the window, smiled.

She took a sip of coffee to perk herself up, then asked, "You called me, it must be something important, right?"

Upon hearing Qin Shuman's question, Qiu Tu finally remembered his purpose for tonight.

Although he didn't want to add any more work for Qin Shuman on the other end of the phone, Qiu Tu really didn't have any other reliable channels at the moment.

So he hummed in agreement and said, "I want to buy a villa, in a good location with good security. Preferably... anonymous."

Qin Shuman, as expected of a seasoned agent, reacted immediately to Qiu Tu's words, saying, "You're being watched?"

"An evil god? Or an alliance?"

Qiu Tu gave a wry smile, "Yes, I have both."

Qiu Tu's intelligence capabilities had already been verified multiple times, so Qin Shuman immediately began to ponder.

After a moment, she said, "No problem. I'll have Lin Zuo take care of it for you."

"I guarantee no one will be able to find out. And... it should be very safe."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ask, "Where?"

Qin Shuman finished her coffee in one gulp on the other end of the phone, her gaze resolute, and said crisply, "Longshan Road."

Qiu Tu was taken aback upon hearing this.

Longshan Road?

Qiu Tu was no stranger to Longshan Road.

This is the largest luxury villa district in the New Territories, bar none.

The people living here were all prominent figures before the establishment of the New Territories City.

They have a large family second only to the Qin family, wealthy businessmen involved in multiple industries, and gang leaders with tens of thousands of followers.

Although these bigwigs gradually lost power with the establishment of the New Territories City, Lung Shan Road still holds a pivotal position in the entire New Territories City.

Moreover, and more importantly, one of Qiu Tu's key partners, Fang Ming, lives there...

Recalling the heavy security and live-fire patrols he had seen when he sent Fang Ming away last time, Qiu Tu felt relieved.

If they move there, even if the Allied Forces send two or three squads, they probably won't be able to break through in a short time.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu replied, "Thanks, Shuman."

Qin Shuman smiled and said, "There's no need for formalities between us."

After a few more brief words, the two hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Qiu Tu, standing in the dirty and messy corridor, took a deep breath.

He gazed at the misty drizzle in the night, thinking to himself: The crisis facing the allied forces should be averted for the time being...

But... how will the evil god Lariro overcome her crisis?

Based on the timing, she can only arrive tonight or tomorrow night.

How should I deal with this...?

Qiu Tu never felt very confident when facing the evil god La Ri Luo.

After all, compared to a person you can actually touch, Lariro is like a ghost.

Qiu Tu didn't know how to hurt her, how to kill her, or even... where she was.

Qiu Tu only knew that she had come to the real world using the female body cloned by Grandpa Qin; she only knew that she could enter dreams at night; and that she could communicate using ancient coins during the day.

But I know nothing about the rest...

How exactly did the sanctuary deal with the evil god?

'How did the shelter's leadership defend against such an insidious enemy?'

After thinking quietly for a while, Qiu Tu suppressed his deep worry and then made a few phone calls.

After arranging everything, he returned to his room.

'Regardless, let's prepare adequately first, and then proceed one step at a time...'

'At least this time, I don't know nothing about her anymore.'

'Besides, every living being has its own desires. So... perhaps I can use the same methods I use on people on her?'

Back in her room, Shen Lingshuang picked up a large wooden mallet and started banging on the workbench.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu smiled and shook his head, saying, "Stop knocking. The neighbors will be coming over soon."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Ling Shuang's eyes widened. "Who dares to come looking for us!?"

With one hand on her hip and the other holding a hammer, she said in a cute but fierce tone, "If anyone dares to come looking for me! I'll, I'll..."

Qiu Tu, "What are you going to do?"

Shen Lingshuang forced a cute smile and pulled a handful of peanuts from her pocket. "I'll treat him to peanuts~~ so he can be more tolerant of me. Hehe."

"Hahaha." Qiu Tu was amused by Shen Ling Shuang's cowardly yet timid demeanor.

He walked over, took the wooden mallet from Shen Lingshuang's hand, and said, "I've already asked a friend to help us find a new place to stay."

"We should be able to find one by tomorrow."

"We'll move to our new house tomorrow."

Qiu Tu emphasized "new home" in his speech, but Shen Lingshuang focused on "us".

So her eyes lit up slightly, "Our new home?!"

Qiu Tu: "Yes."

He explained, "I've made many enemies during this period. Some of them might seek revenge."

"In addition, the old alleys and streets have now developed, and there are too many people coming and going, making it a mixed bag."

"So we should move to a safer place to live."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Ling Shuang nodded cutely, then asked with longing in her eyes, "When we get to the new house, can I have my own bedroom?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu shook his head, "No."

Shen Lingshuang immediately lowered her head, looking somewhat disappointed.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu smiled and said, "Because I can't sleep tonight if I don't hold you."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Lingshuang's face flushed red instantly. Steam even began to rise from the top of her head.

Qiu Tu smiled as he watched the girl blush, then added, "So, although you can't have your own bedroom, you can decorate the other rooms in the house however you like. You can also choose one as your alchemy room or workshop."

Shen Lingshuang looked up, tilting her head, "Zun Du Jia Du Oo?"

Seeing Qiu Tu nod, Shen Lingshuang excitedly jumped onto him, overjoyed. "Yay! Qiu Tu, you're not so bad after all!"

Supporting Shen Lingshuang's pert bottom, Qiu Tu smiled and shook his head upon seeing the girl's happy expression: She really is still just a child...

I wonder why her parents left such a young, adorable girl to wander alone in this catastrophic world...

.....

Perhaps because she was moving to her new home tomorrow, Shen Lingshuang was incredibly excited.

She stopped hitting the mallet and started packing her luggage.

Take away the Cataclysm potion, the Cataclysm materials, the crafting table, and even some pots, pans, rice, oil, and salt from home.

Watching her pack the food while muttering that she had forgotten something, Qiu Tu, sitting on the sofa, was speechless.

He said, "Anything that's needed can be bought once we get to the new house."

"That rice and flour aren't expensive, and they're heavy to carry. There's no need to take them."

Shen Lingshuang rolled her eyes at Qiu Tu, muttering, "What a spoiled young master, he's never been in charge of a household before."

"These were all bought with copper coins, how can we waste them?"

Qiu Tu said, "Then you can give them to your neighbors."

Shen Lingshuang paused for a moment, then shook her head, continuing to pack as she said, "Let's forget it. I carefully selected these myself, I can't bear to waste them..."

Qiu Tu found it quite amusing to see Shen Lingshuang's stingy behavior.

This young girl can help her neighbors generate income and make money; yet she is also very calculating when buying or giving things away.

What kind of living environment shaped this girl?

Shen Lingshuang continued tidying up until late at night before finally finishing. The two of them then washed up, tidied up, and went to bed.

Perhaps because she was a little excited, Shen Lingshuang lay in Qiu Tu's arms, her little mouth chattering nonstop.

Qiu Tu couldn't stand it anymore, so he covered her mouth and manually muted her microphone, finally stopping her incessant chatter.

And so, while gagging Shen Lingshuang and gently patting her back, Qiu Tu spent a full half hour getting the girl to fall into a deep sleep.

After Shen Lingshuang fell asleep, Qiu Tu got up, glanced at her, and then went to the next room.
