Then let them offer their loyalty!

Qiu Tu then said, "Actually, we're not that close."

Fang Tangtang: ? ?

After saying that, Qiu Tu added, "At most, we can only be considered to have a spiritual connection."

Qiu Tu said with a look of reminiscence, "I first learned about her when I was investigating a case."

“The perpetrator was her follower. So, I willingly allowed myself to be marked with the mark of an evil god, and then I met her in my dream.”

"Later, we each had our own plans, but in the end, it didn't affect the other."

"She joked at the time that if she made it big in the real world, she would make me the archbishop."

"Then I joked that I wanted to be the pope."

Fang Tangtang, her pretty oval face full of seriousness, listened attentively.

The same was true of Lariro, who was attached to her...

Qiu Tu continued, "Later, the case was closed. We didn't really have much of a relationship anymore."

At this point, Qiu Tu pointed to his black uniform and said, "You've seen it too. I'm from the Political Department, not in charge of cases related to evil gods."

Hearing Qiu Tu point out this "key information"

Fang Tangtang was completely bewildered by the Detective Agency and the various departments of the military, but she pretended to understand and nodded timidly.

However, Qiu Tu's words were clearly not directed at her, but at La Riluo, who was attached to Fang Tangtang.

Sure enough, upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, La Riluo's expression changed, and she seemed to be deep in thought.

Qiu Tu shrugged and continued, "However, that evil god seemed to have set his sights on me and kept pestering me."

Larilu: Heh...

Fang Tangtang still couldn't understand.

Qiu Tu said with a smile, "She wants me to help her find out some top-secret information."

"But she clearly overestimated me. How could I possibly have access to that?"

"Later, she suddenly encountered a problem. She was trapped by a master."

Fang Tangtang could understand this part. So, with her big, watery eyes wide open, she asked curiously, "And then?"

Qiu Tu leaned against the stove and said nonchalantly, "And then... that expert just happened to have a grudge against me."

"To help her, and also to help myself, I got in touch with her."

"Of course she was trying to trick me into helping her contact outside help."

Qiu Tu gave a mocking smile, "I'm not stupid. With my special status, how could I possibly cooperate with her or help her?"

Larilu's fists were clenched tightly!

But then Qiu Tu changed his tone again, "But...actually, I still want to save her."

"So, I then set up a huge scheme to break that expert's control over her."

"However, breaking this confinement requires sacrificing something she has always wanted (Moonlight Lake)."

Fang Tangtang asked timidly, "What is it?"

Qiu Tu shook his head this time, "This is confidential. I can't say."

Qiu Tu remained silent, but La Riluo seemed to be deep in thought: Moonlight Lake?

Sure enough, Qiu Tu then said, "That item happens to be closely related to that expert as well."

"Once it's destroyed, that expert will also be held responsible."

"So, I used a trick to trigger that thing ahead of time, forcing that expert to choose one of two options."

"Fortunately, the expert did indeed choose to protect that item and abandoned her restraint."

At this point, Qiu Tu paused for a moment, "And in order to let her know my good intentions, I deliberately set the activation time of that item to the day I lied to her before." (Chapter 267)

At this point, Qiu Tu chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Unfortunately... she seems completely unaware of my good intentions, or what I've done for her..."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, both Fang Tangtang, who knew nothing about the story, and La Riluo, who knew the story but whose understanding was completely different from Qiu Tu's, fell silent...

Fang Tangtang remained silent because the man she loved was talking about his past with another girl in front of her, which made her feel inexplicably bitter.

She was actually very aggrieved at this point, but she didn't dare to express her opinion...

Lariello, on the other hand, said... "This story isn't supposed to be like this, is it?!"

Was the relationship between myself and Qiu Tu really that ambiguous? That close?

And Qiu Tu had been secretly doing so much for me all along.

Was he a "loyal minister"?

La Riluo tried hard to recall her past interactions with Qiu Tu, and then compared them with what Qiu Tu had said.

It seems... to make sense?

In particular, the sudden eruption of Moonlight Lake forced Yan Chen to dispel his domain, allowing him to escape.

Larilu felt it was all a bit sudden.

However, because she was later ambushed, it is speculated that this was a grand conspiracy orchestrated by Yan Chen or Qiu Tu.

Looking back now... it was Qiu Tu who helped me out of the crisis?

Was the ambush he was later ambushed an accident?

Thinking about it that way, it does make sense...?

Bullshit!

Larilu is starting to lose her temper!

She felt that things were not as Qiu Tu had described at all.

Qiu Tu may have actually rescued her from Yan Chen's clutches, but the ambush that followed must have been arranged by Qiu Tu!

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that three peak-level Tier 3 Cataclysms appeared?!

Do you really think that a Tier 3 peak Cataclysm is as common as cabbage?

So, for a moment, Larilu felt extremely angry!

She felt like one of those pitiful women who were dumped by a scumbag, but behind her back, he kept saying how much he loved her!

Most importantly, she had no way to refute it!

How could she possibly refute it? She couldn't exactly jump out and explain it to Fang Tangtang!

So the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

However, after her anger subsided, she also perked up her ears, wanting to hear what Qiu Tu would say next.

Could you explain why she was ambushed?

As it turned out, Qiu Tu, that scumbag, stopped talking after that point.

This really piqued La Riluo's curiosity: Was Qiu Tu just pretending to be affectionate with his "current girlfriend"?

Or... is there some misunderstanding, and I've wronged Qiu Tu?

For a moment, Larilu felt as if her heart was being scratched by a cat's claws, itchy and itchy!

Qiu Tu noticed all of La Riluo's changes in expression out of the corner of his eye...

His face remained expressionless, but inside he was overjoyed.

'Take the bait!'

He went to such great lengths today for two reasons.

The first objective was to tell Lariel that... there might be more to all of this than meets the eye. He might actually be a "loyal subject."

Once this impression is planted in Lariro's mind, many future plans will be easier to implement.

The second purpose was... to pique Laura's curiosity. There were indeed "hidden details" about what happened recently, but I won't tell you what they are.

It's about fishing for lager...

Qiu Tu refused to believe he couldn't catch La Riluo, because of the biggest secret about her demise.

When it comes to winning a woman's heart, Qiu Tu is becoming more and more adept at it.

Thinking this through, Qiu Tu, who had perfectly completed his task, also left the kitchen after feigning a melancholy expression.

Leaving behind the even more melancholy La Ri Luo, and... Fang Tang Tang.

Perhaps upset by Qiu Tu's story about his "ex-girlfriend," the young cook Fang Tangtang stood there with her head down, almost losing her will to cook...

She glanced at Qiu Tu several times, wanting to talk to him again, but she couldn't muster the courage.

And then she remembered that Qiu Tu hadn't eaten dinner yet. So in the end, she could only suppress her discomfort and silently start cooking for Qiu Tu again...

...

At this moment, Qiu Tu also stepped back into the living room.

In the living room, after reviewing all the documents and testimonies, Tan Huimin was completely distraught.

Her usually gentle and dignified makeup and hair were now a mess, as if Qiu Tu had just ravaged them.

Her eyes were glazed over, staring blankly at the wall in front of her. Her rosy lips were parted, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's footsteps, she seemed to finally find an outlet for her anger. She snapped back to reality, her eyes bloodshot as she glared at Qiu Tu and screamed, "Impossible! This is fake! It's all fake!"

"You liar! You scum!"

"Bang." Qiu Tu took out his gun and slammed it on the table with a cold face.

Tan Huimin's voice stopped abruptly.

Faced with this beautiful young woman, Qiu Tu didn't need to be as cautious as he was with La Riluo.

So be firm when necessary.

"Who gave you permission to go crazy? Who do you think you are standing in front of?" Qiu Tu looked at Tan Huimin with a cold face.

Tan Huimin took a deep breath, but still didn't have the courage to continue venting.

After all, Qiu Tu is now one of the 40 most powerful people in the New Territories.

He was like Yan Chen and Jia Shu back then, killing a second-level detective without even needing to submit a report.

So what if he was killed?

Faced with life and death, even the most insane woman will calm down. Their madness is only because men tolerate them.

At this moment, after seeing that Tan Huimin had calmed down.

Qiu Tu snorted coldly.

He wasn't the type to kick someone after they'd served their purpose; he'd already planned his "compensation" for using Tan Huimin tonight.

So he said, "Leave the villa now. Go to the yard outside. Security will take you to see your ex-husband."

"Whether it's true or false, just ask him directly."

After saying that, Qiu Tu gestured and then turned around and left the living room without any hesitation.

He's very busy tonight!

Besides deceiving La Riluo and telling Tan Huimin the truth, he also needs to continue paving his way to becoming the "Minister of the Political Department"!

During this period, Qiu Tu was no longer a political novice.

He knew that the "Boundless Ocean of the Mind Development Project" was just a stepping stone, an opportunity.

But it is not the deciding factor in victory.

He was, after all, only a co-initiator of the plan, not the main person in charge.

Such people can be replaced easily.

Therefore, he also had to cultivate relationships with the higher-ups at the shelter!
