Then let them offer their loyalty!

Fortunately, refining the earth vein nodes was a mechanical task for him; and Tang Feifei also taught him how to "slack off" in his position as director; neither of these required too much mental effort, otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have been able to do so many things at the same time!

As for the "slacking off" method that Tang Feifei taught him, it was very simple, just one sentence: focus on the abstract and not the concrete, focus on the big picture and not the small details.

Actually, this wasn't a way to slack off, but rather a governing philosophy taught to Tang Feifei by her family elders.

According to her family elder, when someone has already reached a position of authority but doesn't have much experience in that role, the worst thing is to be "diligent and conscientious."

Because those in positions of power wield immense power and influence countless people and events. A seemingly innocuous remark can be amplified and amplified by those below, leading to immeasurable consequences.

Therefore, when lacking experience, those in positions of authority must prioritize theory over practice.

"Putting things into theory" means unifying thinking and consolidating power. "Not being practical" means not taking charge of specific tasks, leaving them to be handled freely by subordinates, and trying not to disrupt the normal operation of the entire department or organization.

The principle of focusing on major issues and ignoring minor ones is similar. Only get involved in important matters and control the direction; leave minor issues to subordinates to handle freely.

This way, the impact of a change in leadership on the department can be minimized, and it can also... prevent us from making a fool of ourselves!

Those who can thrive in officialdom are all clever people. If you don't do anything or say anything, they won't know what to do and won't dare to do anything.

However, if the truth is revealed and those below figure out the situation, then the consequences of undermining authority, deceiving superiors, and shirking responsibility may follow...

Therefore, the elder advised Tang Feifei that after being promoted, she must first "calm down" and "be still." Observe more, learn more, and only take action when she is confident.

Tang Feifei used this theory for more than ten days, and now Qiu Tu has taken it over exactly.

Therefore, the entire investigation department is now operating incredibly smoothly, not much different from... the time of Yan Chen.

This gradually calmed down the Investigation Bureau, which had been in a state of panic after two consecutive changes of directors...

.....

Throughout the day, Shen Lingshuang stayed by Guan Xiao's side, assisting and learning from him.

At first, when Shen Lingshuang caught up with Guan Xiao, she wanted to get revenge and say a few more words to Guan Xiao.

But at that time, Guan Xiao seamlessly switched to workplace mode: she began to command the work with full force.

The domineering and elite demeanor of that woman left Shen Lingshuang completely dumbfounded.

So she gave up on arguing and started processing intelligence with Guan Xiao.

Last night, it wasn't just Guan Xiao and Miao Xiao who made a profit.

Of the first batch of 12 teams sent out, 5 had unexpected gains.

However, this unexpected gain was not an avatar of the evil god. Rather, it was... spies from anti-government forces, anti-government cults, and other shelters.

According to the reports from these four groups, Section Chief Chen of the Education Department of the City Hall is suspected of having ties with the anti-government sect "Destruction Cult".

The Deputy Director of the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau, surnamed Zhou, is suspected of having ties with the anti-government armed group "New Democratic Army".

It seems that Deputy Section Chief Wen from the Department of Environment and Sanitation and the Fourth Shelter are exchanging information...

Last night's surprise inspection was spot on.

Normally, the political department doesn't conduct investigations because everyone is a close colleague. But when they do investigate, it turns out that everyone holds multiple positions.

However, the biggest taboo in intelligence and surveillance work is to arrest whatever is discovered.

So even though she had obtained so much useful information, Guan Xiao did not arrange for anyone to continue the mission. Instead, she recorded all the information, archived it, and continued the mission.

Because Qiu Tu had explicitly told her that at least two evil gods had infiltrated the New Territories.

So she reassigned tasks. The other groups began investigating according to the second list.

She, Shen Lingshuang, and Miao Xiaoxiao went to investigate Deputy Director Wu, his wife, and his son to find out which of the three was the evil god...

The method they used was quite simple. They used Guan Xiao's cataclysmic abilities to control insects and track the three suspects...

Keeping watch is the most tedious part.

Guan Xiao and Miao Xiaoxiao, the two professionals, were fine; they just sat there quietly for an entire afternoon.

The two barely spoke or communicated.

One silently controls the flying insect, monitoring from three perspectives simultaneously; the other idly plays with its tail.

In contrast, Shen Lingshuang, who is not a professional, is not up to the task.

She was naturally an active person, but she couldn't stand it after sitting for more than an hour. Two hours was her limit.

Three hours... it was her competitive spirit at work. Four hours... she had gradually gotten used to it.

Having calmed down, she looked at the two women sitting beside her, their expressions unchanged. For some reason, she suddenly felt a surge of admiration for them...

She remembers when she was little, her father took her to a planned development zone once.

Seeing the beggars lying on the ground, ragged and emaciated, she couldn't help but look up at her father and ask, "Dad, what happened to them? How could they be living such a miserable life?"

She still remembers her father telling her, "In chaotic times, human life is as worthless as grass."

"So, you need to study hard..."

"When I grow up, I will change the world, and change their lives..."

And these two women and girls are helping humanity and changing the world in their own way...

Thinking this, Shen Lingshuang's gaze towards Guan Xiao and Miao Xiaoxiao softened considerably...

Unfortunately... perhaps noticing Shen Lingshuang's gaze, Guan Xiao glanced at her and casually asked, "By the way, Detective Shen, do you dream about the chief?"

Shen Lingshuang was visibly taken aback when she suddenly heard Guan Xiao's question.

Then she tilted her head slightly, a little awkwardly, and whispered, "Occasionally..."

"Occasionally?" Guan Xiao looked at her with amusement.

Shen Lingshuang became even more uncomfortable. She spoke in a barely audible, slightly arrogant voice, "Sometimes...I dream about it sometimes..."

"Occasionally?" Guan Xiao laughed so hard she almost fell over.

Shen Lingshuang's face flushed red, and she bared her two little tiger teeth, looking at Guan Xiao with a fierce yet adorable expression, "Often! Often, okay?!"

What do you want?!

Upon seeing Shen Lingshuang finally admit it, Guan Xiao chuckled a few times and then said, "Not so good, not so good."

"However, I know a Taoist priest who is very effective. I'll take you to get an exorcism another day."

"I guarantee you'll never dream of the director again."

Shen Lingshuang: ......

Penta kill!

ACE (team wiped out).....

.....

that's it.

Time slowly passed as Guan Xiao, Shen Lingshuang, and Miao Xiaoxiao investigated; Qiu Tu refined the earth vein nodes and accumulated strength; Tang Feifei attempted to become a fourth-tier Cataclysm...

One day, two days, three days... In the blink of an eye, a week has passed!

Just when Qiu Tu had refined more than twenty ley line nodes and accumulated the pseudo-rank of "Regional Lord" to the peak of the third tier!

A powerful shockwave suddenly exploded above Tang Feifei's villa!

In that instant, the martial arts phantom that had stood tall and upright above the New World suddenly exploded!

It turned into specks of golden light and then flew into the sky!

Immediately afterwards, layers of dark clouds began to gather, and lightning danced wildly in the clouds, like golden dragons poised to strike!

At the same time, suddenly, a dazzling beam of light burst forth from Tang Feifei's villa! It shot straight into the sky!

The beam of light instantly tore through the thick dark clouds!

In that instant, the clouds dispersed and the wind died down! Everything was as if nothing had happened!

Ordinary people in the New Territories City simply looked up at the changing sky, puzzled as to why the weather had suddenly changed so many times in a row.

However... at that moment, all the calamities were as if struck by a divine inspiration, and they all looked up in unison towards the direction of Tang Feifei's villa.

Because there, a powerful aura is slowly brewing!

'This is... advancing to the fourth tier?'

At the same time, Qiu Tu, who was working in his clone while refining the earth vein nodes in his main body, also looked in the direction of Tang Feifei's villa.

Meanwhile.

In the secret room of the villa, Tang Feifei slowly opened her eyes. In that instant, her eyes seemed to flash with lightning and thunder, but then they turned into a pool of clear yellow!

She got up, stretched her body which had been sitting for a week, and casually threw a few punches.

"Hoohoo!"

The force of the punches echoed in the secret room, carving grooves into the walls.

'That's pretty strong... Is this what it feels like to be at the fourth tier?'

As a martial arts expert who has practiced since childhood, Tang Feifei has a very clear understanding of her own strength.

She did a quick assessment. She felt that even though her current level was still unstable, she was strong enough to defeat six or seven of her former selves.

If we calculate according to Qiu Tu.

Before, she could barely squeeze Qiu Tu dry. But now... squeezing Qiu Tu dry is as easy as squeezing orange juice!

No pressure at all!

And when Tang Feifei thought of Qiu Tu... the handsome figure of that confident, masterful man flashed before her eyes...

Unconsciously, her originally sharp gaze softened considerably....

She casually picked up the coat that was placed to the side, put it on, and then stepped out of the secret room.

Once outside the secret room, she picked up her communicator and called Qiu Tu to let him know she was safe.

Immediately afterwards, she followed her and Qiu Tu's plan. A call was made to the shelter.

The shelter had clearly been waiting for Tang Feifei's call for a while.

So, the moment she dialed the number, the other end answered almost instantly.

As soon as the call connected, the voice of Tang Feifei's second uncle, Inspector Tang, who had met Qiu Tu a few times before, rang out on the other end.

He asked tentatively, "Feifei... did you succeed?"

Tang Feifei hummed in agreement and then said, "Second Uncle, I've reached level four."

Upon hearing Tang Feifei's confirmation, Inspector Tang on the other end of the phone could barely suppress the smile on his face.

He suppressed his excitement and then said four words in a row, "Good, good, good!"

Seeing her family so happy, Tang Feifei couldn't help but smile slightly.

Then, without further ado, she said coldly and directly, "Second Uncle, I've now become a fourth-tier Cataclysm, and I want to be the Vice Speaker..."

Upon hearing her words, the cheerful atmosphere on the other end of the phone immediately cooled down...

-------

Two chapters, 10,000 words each. Requesting monthly votes!

Chapter 375 Tang Feifei: Don't force me to break up! (10,000 words, please vote!)

After a moment of silence, Inspector Tang on the other end of the phone said to Tang Feifei with a somewhat serious tone, "Feifei, are you serious or joking?"

Tang Feifei seemed to have anticipated Tang Inspector's reaction, so she said calmly, "Of course I'm serious."

Tang Jianzhi said, "That's good. You know I hate it when people make jokes about me."

After saying that, Inspector Tang changed the subject and said, "Since you're not joking, then your second uncle will have a good chat with you."

He said, "Do you remember what your family said when they sent you to the New Territories?"

Tang Feifei's expression remained unchanged on the other end of the phone. She strode confidently towards the second floor of the villa with the gait of a female leopard. Then, expressionless, she said...

"remember."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Tang grunted and repeated, "When you were sent to the countryside, your family already told you about it."

"The most important thing for scions of large families is not to walk fast, but to walk steadily."
