Then let them offer their loyalty!

Qiu Tu nodded and then said, "Then I'll go take a shower and wait for you."

Upon hearing this, Tang Feifei's heart skipped a beat.

She gave Qiu Tu a dangerous once-over, then said coldly, "Don't worry, I guarantee it will succeed."

After saying that, she turned around and strode away from the living room.

Watching her departing figure, Qiu Tu curled his lip, feeling as if he were engaging in some kind of sexual bribery.

'I did all this for the sake of solving the case! Solving the case!'

After mentally reciting a couple of sentences to clear his mind, Qiu Tu turned and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

In the bathroom, accompanied by the sound of running water, Qiu Tu's thoughts grew increasingly deep.

Actually... he just lied to Tang Feifei.

Although he did tell Tang Feifei all his conversations with Secretary Bai, what Qiu Tu didn't say was... he might have guessed a hidden message that Secretary Bai really wanted to convey to him.

This hidden information wasn't obtained through dialogue or actions, but rather through Secretary Bai's series of unusual behaviors tonight, which Qiu Tu deduced on his own...

Qiu Tu knew best what kind of person Secretary Bai was: he was the kind of person who would repay even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude.

Ever since Qiu Tu saved his life, Secretary Bai has been repaying Qiu Tu's kindness.

This includes helping Qiu Tu and others buy houses (in Jiuxiang Street); and leaving Qiu Tu enough money to live on for two or three years.

This includes recruiting Qiu Tu into the Detective Agency's Administrative Office after the establishment of the New Territories City; and introducing Qiu Tu to Yan Chen as a driver.

This includes turning a blind eye to Qiu Tu using his and Yan Chen's influence to place Atai and others in jobs; and secretly reminding and hinting to Qiu Tu several times, helping Qiu Tu escape.

This also includes the fact that, despite being enemies with Qiu Tu, he still found an opportunity to tell Qiu Tu that Huang Shangzong's advisor had come to the New Territories City, plotting against Qiu Tu...

All these actions prove that although he appears somewhat serene on the outside, he is actually very clear about his grudges and resentments...

Therefore, Qiu Tu boldly speculates that the reason why Secretary Bai, who clearly had no desire for "reproduction" and no interest in evil gods, still became a follower of La Ri Luo is most likely due to gratitude.

However, judging from Secretary Bai's unwavering betrayal of La Riluo today, it seems that this favor was not given to him by La Riluo.

So... Qiu Tu guessed that perhaps it was someone who had done Secretary Bai a favor who asked him to become a follower of La Ri Luo, which ultimately led to all of this.

For example... Yan Chen.

Although Qiu Tu didn't know what favor Bai owed Yan Chen, judging from Bai's various actions, he was very loyal to Yan Chen.

Even though Secretary Bai hinted at or tipped off Qiu Tu several times, he did so only when he believed it wouldn't affect Yan Chen's interests. (Chapter 127)

Therefore, when they discovered that Secretary Bai had become a follower of the evil god with almost no motive, and had even betrayed the evil god without hesitation, they were shocked.

Qiu Tu's first reaction was: Could it be that Secretary Bai was arranged by Yan Chen to become a follower of La Ri Luo?

As for why Yan Chen made such an arrangement, Qiu Tu didn't know...

Qiu Tu was unsure of Yan Chen's involvement in the matter...

Did Yan Chen know that his daughter had been switched? Qiu Tu didn't know.

Qiu Tu didn't know what role he played in the matter of his daughter being switched.

The only thing he could guess was that Yan Chen might want to gain a huge profit from La Riluo.

However, Yan Chen cherished his reputation and did not want to take any risks or ruin his future, so he hinted or arranged for Secretary Bai to become a follower of La Ri Luo.

As for the more specific details, Qiu Tu can only find out after Secretary Bai is arrested and brought to justice...

'So... Lariluo and Yanchen are actually playing a grand game on the same chessboard?'

'It all comes down to whose chess skills are superior? Who can outsmart whom?'

The more Qiu Tu got involved in this game, the more complex the situation became.

More importantly, he discovered that... those who sided with the law and those who sided with it were all his enemies.

It seems like it won't benefit him no matter who wins...

Thinking this, Qiu Tu took a deep breath and then exhaled a heavy breath.

Regardless, Secretary Bai's "surrender" finally allowed him to glimpse the true full picture of the New Territories City's game.

He believed that as long as he continued, he would soon figure everything out and be able to make his own choice!

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu turned off the hot water, dried himself off, wrapped a towel around his waist, and walked towards the bedroom.

When Tang Feifei arrived at the bedroom, she had just finished making a phone call.

When Qiu Tu entered, she narrowed her eyes and her sharp eyes swept over Qiu Tu's bare upper body and six-pack abs.

A bright yellow light began to flicker in her eyes, like a female leopard encountering prey that interested her.

Those who live off women should be aware of their own responsibilities.

So, ignoring Tang Feifei's murderous expression, Qiu Tu calmly sat on the bed, propped himself up on the edge of the bed, and asked, "What did Second Uncle say?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Feifei withdrew her gaze, then, while unbuttoning her uniform jacket, said coldly, "Second Uncle agreed."

"And he knows you're in a hurry to get the case done. So he'll expedite the stamping and fax the authorization letter over in a bit. That way, you can get started tomorrow."

Upon hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but give her a thumbs up, "As expected, Second Uncle is still the most reliable."

Upon hearing this, Tang Feifei scoffed lightly, as if laughing at Qiu Tu's naivety—without her efforts of using so much persuasion, both threats and inducements, Inspector Tang wouldn't have agreed so readily.

However, she wasn't one to explain herself, so as she tossed her coat aside and continued unbuttoning her bra, she said, "Also, he told me to warn you."

"Huang Shangzong has his eye on you and has been investigating your information recently."

"And Dongye Prefecture will be established soon. At that time, cases at the city level will no longer be authorized by the shelters themselves, but will have to go through a procedure at the prefecture level."

"Therefore, if Huang Shangzong decides to cut off your path, he may only be able to help you this once. So, he advises you to resolve any conflicts you need to resolve in one go."

Chapter 240 (10,000 words, please vote for me!)

Upon hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Tang Feifei with some disbelief.

"So... this gives me unlimited firing rights?"

Tang Feifei: ?

At this moment, Tang Feifei had reached the last line of defense in her body.

She gripped the white ribbon around her neck and looked quietly at Qiu Tu.

A moment later, she ripped off the sash, threw it at Qiu Tu's face, and said coldly, "Dream on!"

She glanced at Qiu Tu disdainfully, "Even I don't dare to cause trouble, for fear of bringing any trouble to the family."

“If you make a big fuss and really provoke the people behind Yan Chen, or Huang Shangzong, you will be exposed.”

"Don't blame me for running faster than you when the time comes."

Tang Feifei's braid had a faint milky scent that smelled very nice. Qiu Tu took it off his face, rubbing it as he asked curiously, "What does Second Uncle mean by that?"

Tang Feifei said, "Second Uncle is just asking you to make a decision."

“Opponents who need to be dealt with must be dealt with ruthlessly and without mercy.”

"But if you can't handle an opponent, after demonstrating your toughness, you should back down. Don't try to hold on."

"Politics is the art of compromise. Officials who can rise to the level of section chief or director are all masters in this field."

"When they realize that you can't be easily dealt with either, cooperation becomes a win-win option."

"Since Huang Shangzong has already set his sights on you, then don't leave him any openings!"

At this point, Tang Feifei stood in front of Qiu Tu with her hands on her hips and said calmly, "This is what Second Uncle meant by 'solving it all at once'!"

Tang Feifei's actions in front of Qiu Tu were actually not problematic, but... given that she was completely naked, it appeared somewhat alluring.

Qiu Tu looked up and admired Tang Feifei's body. Under the light, Tang Feifei's wheat-colored skin seemed to shimmer with golden light.

Perhaps due to her martial arts training, coupled with years of exercise and stretching, her body is full of elasticity, slim where it should be slim, and curvy where it should be curvy.

As a Tier 3 Cataclysm, her body has undergone three enhancements and two reshapings, resulting in smooth lines that don't look out of place and are very beautiful, like a goddess of victory.

Qiu Tu remembered the first time he tried Tang Feifei, the soft and elastic feel of the raised part made him linger for a long time.

Pulling himself out of his reverie, Qiu Tu brought his thoughts back to the main topic.

He looked at Tang Feifei and asked, "And what about you? Will you also make political compromises?"

Tang Feifei chuckled and looked down at Qiu Tu, "I can smash his head in!"

After saying that, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Qiu Tu, saying, "If you can't satisfy me, I'll smash your head in."

She said calmly, "I've been a bit irritable lately, and I don't want to hold back any more energy."

Qiu Tu:? ?

Before Qiu Tu could react, Tang Feifei pounced on him like a female leopard and ripped off his bath towel!

Suddenly, the sounds of two Cataclysmics battling filled the room.

However, it's unclear whether they underestimated their opponent or misjudged Qiu Tu's strength.

Although Tang Feifei had unlocked some of her strength, she found herself unable to suppress Qiu Tu after a few rounds!

She finally sensed something was wrong and wanted to unleash her full power as a Tier 3 Cataclysm, but it was too late.

Taking advantage of Tang Feifei's underestimation of him, Qiu Tu decisively unleashed his full power, which soon overwhelmed Tang Feifei.

But having practiced martial arts for many years, she was not one to back down, so even though she was under a lot of pressure, she gritted her teeth and never begged for mercy.

The two fought fiercely for nearly two hours before finally collapsing to the ground after exchanging a powerful blow.

The world seemed to quiet down at that moment, and even time seemed to slow down.

Still savoring the afterglow of their climax and the exhilaration of meeting a worthy opponent, neither wanted to speak...

Several minutes passed before Tang Feifei seemed to realize something, then propped herself up on her elbows, looked at Qiu Tu, and asked with a puzzled expression, "You advanced?"

"A second-tier Cataclysm?"

Qiu Tu's face was full of smugness, but his tone was very nonchalant, "I just... accidentally advanced."

Tang Feifei: ?

Seeing Qiu Tu's smug expression, Tang Feifei's forehead veins throbbed.

She recalled the hardships she had endured to advance to the second-tier Cataclysm and suddenly felt a little annoyed.

So she got up, wanting to fight Qiu Tu again!

She had suppressed her instincts to accommodate Qiu Tu before, but now she wants to unleash her full power and have a proper fight with Qiu Tu.

Just then, Qiu Tu seemed to realize Tang Feifei's thoughts, or perhaps he simply had a sudden inspiration.

He gave Tang Feifei's bouncy buttocks a hard slap and said, "Feifei! I have something I want to ask you."

"Why do I feel like all of you Tier 3 Cataclysms and Tier 2 Cataclysms are so strong?"

"But I... it seems like my cultivation level has increased in vain, and my strength hasn't improved much at all?"

Qiu Tu recalled for a moment, "Like you, like Minister Lin Qin of the Special Operations Department."

"I once saw him take a single step that covered more than ten meters, and then throw a punch with a force that was almost comparable to a small cannonball."

At this point, Qiu Tu waved his arm and said, "But... I don't seem to have that kind of power at all."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Tang Feifei glanced at him, snuggled into his arms, and said, "Of course. Because you haven't systematically studied martial arts, nor have you learned the corresponding power generation techniques."

"Therefore, of course, I can't unleash my full physical potential."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu immediately became interested and asked, "Martial arts? Power generation techniques?"

"Does such a power still exist in this world?"

Tang Feifei was clearly interested when this topic came up.

She said with a serious expression, "Of course."

She explained, "What was the biggest change during the Cataclysmic Era?"

"It is the embodiment of spiritual power."
