Thinking this through, Tang Feifei pondered quietly for a while before striding her long legs toward the bedroom.
Because she was only wearing a shirt, her healthy, tanned skin was faintly visible through the hem, like a cheetah lurking in the jungle, about to begin a new hunt...

......
Silent all night.
The next morning, Qiu Tu woke up early from his sleep.
It must be said that the physical abilities of a second-tier Cataclysmic Being are truly formidable.
Several times before, Qiu Tu had barely managed to hold on, and the next day he felt like his back was about to give out.
And now... he only feels a slight soreness.
'Hmph! A Tier 3 Cataclysm is nothing special!'
While building up his self-confidence in his mind, Qiu Tu got out of bed.
Just like last time, the self-disciplined Tang Feifei had already gotten up early and finished her morning exercise.
The physical exertion last night felt like nothing to her.
If Qiu Tu hadn't touched her sweaty body before, he would have thought he had the wrong person last night.
After greeting Tang Feifei, Qiu Tu took a shower, put on a bathrobe that Tang Feifei had bought for him, and came out.
Qiu Tu took the millet porridge from Tang Feifei and, in front of her, took out his communicator and started making a call.
Qiu Tu's first phone call was to Cao Dabiao.
Cao Dabiao answered Qiu Tu's call almost instantly.
After answering the phone, Cao Dabiao's fawning voice followed, "Brother Tu, you were looking for me?"
As Qiu Tu stirred the millet porridge, he said, "Yes, Da Biao."
"I have something to ask you to do."
"Now gather all of us, bring your guns, and come to Director Tang's house."
"I have important things to do."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Cao Dabiao was taken aback for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Sir...you're not planning to arrest the deputy director, are you?"
Qiu Tu laughed and scolded, "What are you thinking! Do you think I'm courting death, doing something so outrageous!"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Cao Dabiao patted his chest in relief, then chuckled and said, "You scared me."
"I knew it! The superior and the deputy director have such a good relationship, how could he possibly lay a hand on her?"
After saying that, he added, "Then wait for me, sir! I'll gather the men right away!"
Qiu Tu hummed in agreement and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Tu slowly ate his breakfast.
Seeing this, Tang Feifei, who was also having breakfast across from him, rested her chin on her hand and looked at him with interest. "You seem really confident."
"Don't forget that besides capturing Bai Yu, you also have to deal with the difficulties posed by Huang Shangzong's confidant today."

Hearing Tang Feifei's reminder, Qiu Tu smiled, pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth, and then said, "So what?"
"Are Huang Shangzong's confidants very capable?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's question, Tang Feifei stirred her millet porridge indifferently and said, "Huang Shangzong's confidants aren't that powerful. But Huang Shangzong himself is powerful."
Even a seventh-rank official has to stand before the prime minister. One should show respect to the Buddha, not the monk.
“The confidant’s trip outside does not represent him personally, but Huang Shangzong.”
"So, never underestimate your opponent..."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu said nonchalantly, "Huang Shangzong's confidant is so powerful, does he hold a position or rank in the shelter?"
Tang Feifei said, "It will be available soon."
“Huang Shangzong is a committee member at the shelter, and cannot have his own independent, rank-based office.”
"But when Dongye State was established and he became the speaker, he had the right to set up an independent, rank-based office."
"So for them, it's just a matter of completing the formalities."
Hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu smiled nonchalantly, "That's exactly what I want, since he lacks the necessary paperwork."
"Without a certain procedure, he is nothing."
Tang Feifei gave Qiu Tu a deep look, but didn't offer any further advice.
After all, what remains is nothing more than this: Huang Shangzong's confidants, even if they do not hold official positions, can still leverage the influence of officials with ranks, such as Ji Chen and Commissioner Wang.
But Tang Feifei knew that if Qiu Tu could think of this, he certainly could too.
She didn't need to remind him at all. We just had to wait and see.
So, breakfast was finished very quickly.
Not long after finishing breakfast, Qiu Tu received a call from Cao Dabiao.
Over the phone, Cao Dabiao said that he had already assembled his team and was heading towards Tang Feifei's location, expecting to arrive in about 20 minutes.
Qiu Tu responded and hung up the phone. He wasn't in a hurry; instead, he looked up at the countdown hourglass in the upper left corner of his vision.
Unbeknownst to many, the countdown to "Threat in the Dark" has dwindled to just 50 minutes.
This means that the crisis will completely erupt in 50 minutes.
This will be Qiu Tu's first direct confrontation with Huang Shangzong.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu took out the special communicator Tao Yaoyao had given him and sent a text message to a somewhat familiar number...
.....
Time passed second by second.
Twenty minutes later, Cao Dabiao and Qiu Tu's group of trusted men successfully arrived at the outskirts of Tang Feifei's villa.
Since Tang Feifei's guards had already returned this morning, Qiu Tu's confidants did not go directly into the villa to find Qiu Tu, but waited patiently on the outside.
Perhaps because the group was far too dangerous, Tang Feifei's guards watched them warily, fearing they might break into the villa...
.....
at the same time.
New Territories Exploration Department.
A luxurious black convoy slowly pulled up in front of the investigation department.
After the car stopped, a woman dressed as a secretary quickly got out and opened the car door for the important person behind her.
A portly man with a large head and ears got out of the car.
This is Mr. Wong, a member of the New Territories City Council. He is mainly responsible for household registration and municipal affairs, but he can also get involved in some livelihood-related work, such as those of the Investigation Department.
After getting out of the car, Committee Member Wang nodded to the female secretary. Immediately, the secretary walked to the other side of the car and respectfully opened the other door.
The car door opened, and a young man with a somewhat refined appearance stepped out. The young man had an arrogant look on his face, with a self-satisfied smile. When he glanced at the detectives coming and going from the investigation department, he seemed to have some kind of heartfelt sense of superiority.
Upon seeing the young man, Commissioner Wang said with a smile, "Counselor Wu, this is the New Territories City Investigation Department. Shall we go in and take a look?"
Upon hearing Committee Member Wang's words, Wu Zhi nodded reservedly, then smiled and said, "Okay."
After saying that, he didn't even wait for Commissioner Wang to leave first, and walked towards the Investigation Bureau on his own.
Seeing this, Committee Member Wang could only quicken his pace and catch up.
But as a result, the group that was originally led by Committee Member Wang became led by him.
Upon entering the investigation department, Deputy Director Yu Zhengyi was already waiting in the lobby.
The members of the Municipal Council are theoretically on the same level as the Deputy Director, so it's not a problem for Yu Zhengyi to come out and receive them.
So, upon seeing Yu Zhengyi, Committee Member Wang quickly took two steps with a smile, shook hands with Yu Zhengyi, and said, "Director Yu, I came here specifically to visit you with Counselor Wu."
"As for Councilor Wu, he came with a mission."
"You all really need to cooperate."
Hearing what Committee Member Wang said, Yu Zhengyi smiled broadly. He looked at Wu Zhi, extended his hand, and said, "I understand, I understand. If there's anything we can do for you, Councilor Wu, please don't hesitate to ask."
Wu Zhi reached out and shook hands with Yu Zhengyi, then said somewhat coldly, "There are indeed some areas where we need your department's help."
He said, "I would like to review all the case files, audio recordings, and video recordings handled by Minister Qiu Tu."
"In addition, I would like to meet with the victims and suspects of the [August 8.16th pharmacy robbery] and the [Qin family treason case]."
"I wonder if this is convenient?"
Yu Zhengyi clearly knew Wu Zhi's purpose for coming, so he said without hesitation, "Of course, no problem."
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhi seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, I remember that Minister Qiu's former superior was named Zheng Tao, right? He seems to be the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau now."
"I wonder if I could meet with him?"
Yu Zhengyi hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, "No problem. I'll inform Director Zheng in a bit."
During their conversation, the group arrived at the elevator.
The elevator doors slowly opened, and they walked in, chatting and laughing.
Only the numerous low-ranking agents in the hall remained, curiously watching their retreating figures, wondering what had happened...
.....
at the same time.
After Wu Zhi arrived at the Investigation Bureau, Qiu Tu also left Tang Feifei's villa.
Upon arriving at the villa's perimeter, Qiu Tu was greeted by his core team from this world.
Cao Dabiao, Chen Feng, Ding Xiaoliu, Zhu Huoyan, Li Xian... and dozens of other mid- to high-ranking detectives, even Song Qing, who always liked to slack off, were present.
Upon seeing Qiu Tu, Cao Dabiao eagerly ran over.
He chuckled awkwardly and said, "Sir, everyone's here. Where do we go next?"
Upon hearing Cao Dabiao's words, Qiu Tu glanced around at everyone present.
He then did not answer Cao Dabiao's question, but said, "Everyone, as early as yesterday, after I officially accepted the position of Deputy Minister of the Political Department, I transferred all of your names from the Action Division to the Inspection Section."
"The main task of the Inspection Division is to monitor officials at all levels in the New Territories City to prevent them from being corrupt, breaking the law, betraying the sanctuary, and betraying humanity."
"We can be considered the last line of defense within the shelter system."
"As long as we are still here, we can at least guarantee that there won't be any major problems with the management of the New Territories City."
Qiu Tuxian used his inspiring words to instill a lofty belief in his trusted associates present, enhancing their sense of group honor and self-confidence.
Seeing that all his confidants present had been infected, Qiu Tu changed the subject and continued, "But now, one of our high-ranking officials in the New Territories has violated the shelter's laws and betrayed the shelter's trust."
What should we do?
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, while the quick-witted Cao Dabiao and the others were still deep in thought, the naive and simple-minded Song Qing, who only knew how to finish get off work, was the first to shout, "Arrest him!"
"Yes, arrest him and bring him to justice!"
"Bring them to justice!"
Thanks to Song Qing's leadership, the slogans of her confidants quickly became a chorus of voices.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu nodded slightly. Then he said, "Alright! Well said, let's get started now!"
