Tap your head three times...?
This operation... why does it seem so familiar?
.......
If the name is not correct, then the words will not be proper.
Although everyone knows that Qiu Tu has become the director of the Investigation Bureau.
However, since the deputy speaker of the state council had not yet come down to make the announcement, Qiu Tu was not in a hurry to take control of the investigation department on that day.
He continued to handle his work with the same focus as a deputy director.
However, he wasn't in a hurry, but others were.
After receiving the notification in the afternoon, Qiu Tu's office door was practically worn down by visitors, and his phone was ringing non-stop.
There are directors from various departments of the Investigation Department, various forces in the New Territories, the Five Elders, and... Tao Yaoyao.
However, this time Tao Yaoyao's phone call with Qiu Tu was not for personal matters, but for business.
After learning that Qiu Tu had become the Director of the Investigation Department, Committee Member Jiang Zhenpeng personally invited Qiu Tu to dinner, saying he wanted to have a good chat.
However, because he knew that Qiu Tu and Tao Yaoyao were quite familiar with each other, he asked Tao Yaoyao to extend the invitation on his behalf.
Faced with the invitation from the three giants of the New Territories City, whom he had long admired and who was also the nominal highest-ranking official in the New Territories City, Qiu Tu would certainly not refuse.
So I readily agreed.
The two agreed that Qiu Tu would have a casual meal together at Committee Member Jiang's private estate the following evening.
And just like that, the day passed quickly.
As the deputy director, the work is quite busy.
In particular, several high-ranking officials of the New Territories City Investigation Department have been arrested, killed, or are about to be transferred, leaving the entire department's decision-making body virtually paralyzed.
So Qiu Tu worked overtime until 10:30 p.m. before stretching and putting down his pen.
Leaning back in the large director's chair, Qiu Tu turned the chair around so that he was facing the floor-to-ceiling window.
Looking out at the pitch-black night, Qiu Tu couldn't help but think of La Ri Luo.
Compared to the tedious but difficult-to-achieve political achievements work of the Investigation Bureau, La Riluo was actually the real "golden finger" that led to Qiu Tu's promotion.
Simply extracting a few pieces of information from her changed Qiu Tu's status and situation throughout Dongye Prefecture and even the shelter.
If we could really take Lariro under our control and extract enough information from her...
Then Qiu Tu's path to promotion will become incredibly smooth.
Moreover... this is not a fabricated achievement, or a vanity project for promotion.
Just like the impact of the "Yellow Phantom" information on the "Human Faction," the information Lariro has inside her is something that can greatly enhance the strength of the "Human Faction"!
If all of this can be unearthed, humanity may very well usher in a new chapter in the entire Cataclysmic Era!
It was precisely for these reasons that Qiu Tu deliberately let La Ri Luo go.
His plan was to play the long game and catch the big fish.
His theme is "Loyalty Game"!
Since giving Lariro a basketball-sized "Boundless Divine Crystal" last time, Lariro's loyalty has finally successfully broken through "30"!
Afterwards, Qiu Tu used his persuasive skills to brainwash La Ri Luo, and also used a "loyalty game" to fight against La Ri Luo every night, which raised La Ri Luo's loyalty to 35 points again.
In the very end, Qiu Tu really did let La Ri Luo go. La Ri Luo's loyalty reached a new high, a full "42" points!
More importantly... even if Larilu leaves, Qiu Tu can still see the changes in her "loyalty".
This is the "line" that Qiu Tu used to fish for La Ri Luo.
Even when Larilu isn't around, Qiu Tu can always be aware of Larilu's changing attitudes towards him, preventing things from getting out of control.
Although he wasn't sure if his plan would succeed, nothing in this world is 100% certain.
He could only take it one step at a time and see if he could really lure Larilu back!
Meanwhile, as Qiu Tu was thinking this...
Suddenly... "Knock knock knock." There was a knock on Qiu Tu's office door from the outside.
Qiu Tu turned his chair around and checked the time. It was already 11 o'clock.
A strange smile appeared on his face, and then he said, "Please come in."
The next second, Guan Xiao walked in carrying the unconscious Tan Huimin.
Upon seeing Guan Xiao, Qiu Tu feigned surprise and said, "Minister Guan, what brings you here?"
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Guan Xiao, who was holding Tan Huimin, raised her peach blossom eyes slightly and revealed a charming smile on her face. Then she said, "Director, I'm here to keep my appointment."
"Going to an appointment?" Qiu Tu feigned ignorance. "What appointment?"
Guan Xiao reached out and gently tapped her head three times, saying, "You gently tapped my head three times this afternoon, just to tell me to come at midnight, right?"
After saying that, Guan Xiao's lips curled up slightly, and he joked, "Sir, you don't think I've never read 'Journey to the West,' do you?"
Upon seeing this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but smile.
.......
Meanwhile, in the Boundless Heart Sea - East City area.
The sky suddenly darkened, and the once calm clouds began to churn, as if a thousand horses were galloping through them!
Lightning flashed within the dark clouds.
"Boom!" A thunderous roar erupted, like a triumphant song of life!
Meanwhile, a sand dune in the northeast corner of the "East City Area" seemed to be affected by some kind of energy!
The gravel turned into soil, and grass grew on the soil, spreading outwards continuously.
In just a few minutes, a grassland the size of a lake was formed!
Meanwhile, below this grassland...
Larilu closed her eyes and concentrated, her pores seemingly opening up countless microcosms, frantically absorbing the pure power under the "Boundless Divine Crystal" before her!
The surrounding cataclysmic power was drawn in, converging like a torrent and surrounding her, forming visible waves of light!
I don't know how much time passed; it might have been only a minute, or it might have been half an hour!
"boom!"
With a loud bang, a torrential downpour suddenly began in the entire desertified "Eastern City Area"!
The rain was like the breath of life, nourishing this wasteland that represented destruction!
"Fourth tier!"
At that moment, Larilu, who was lying on the grassland, suddenly opened her eyes!
She excitedly touched her newly formed body, her joy almost impossible to conceal!
God knows how long it's been since she's experienced that feeling of immense power returning to a seasoned veteran!
'This is what fourth-order feels like! I miss it so much!'
I never want to fall like that again in my life!
Thinking this, Larilu carefully examined her new body once again.
After confirming that there were no problems, Qiu Tu's image involuntarily appeared in her mind.
'I wonder what Qiu Tu is doing now...'
'It's time to go back and see him again.'

Chapter 408 La Riluo and Guan Xiao ran into each other (Congratulations to "Shancheng Junjue" for becoming the Alliance Leader!)
La Riluo's feelings towards Qiu Tu have always been complicated.
After all, during the time she spent with Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu was a multifaceted figure in La Riluo's eyes.
If I hadn't seen Qiu Tu's catastrophic path, I would have known that he was just like me, a "life form," or even a "reproductive being."
Therefore, Larilu would most likely suspect that Qiu Tu's path to catastrophe is "chaos".
She felt that Qiu Tu was full of contradictions.
He claims to be a believer and likes himself; yet everything he does seems designed to infuriate him; and just when he's about to drive himself crazy, he ends up... saving himself.
Although Qiu Tu also explained to La Ri Luo that it was all an act for the "human camp" to see.
But to be honest, Larilu didn't believe it at all.
She is no longer the weak, remnant soul who was fooled by Qiu Tu. Now, she has regained her fourth-tier strength! Her intelligence has once again taken over!
Therefore, she immediately saw the real reason why Qiu Tu was so conflicted.
He's a pervert!
Only in this way can Qiu Tu's various abnormal and contradictory behaviors be perfectly explained.
and....
'I really love perverts...'
Thinking this, La Riluo couldn't help but picture Qiu Tu's "law phantom" in her mind.
Two people, one man and one woman, are intertwined.
'And it's an abnormal method of "reproduction." I like it even more!'
Thinking this, Larilu got up, and then her gaze swept over her sister, Zhao Ji, the most important treasure trove.
She consumed three of the four fourth-tier evil god "Boundless Divine Crystals" and one fifth-tier evil god "Boundless Divine Crystal".
In fact, in order to make her strength more stable, she even secretly took a piece of the "Boundless Divine Crystal" of a fifth-order evil god.
This is Lady Zhao's treasure.
Taking even this small piece is already excessive. If she takes any more, Larilu is genuinely worried that when Zhaoji returns, she'll slap her to death!
It was precisely because of this fifth-tier "Boundless Divine Crystal" that La Riluo's strength recovered so quickly. Only then did she have the confidence to go back and find Qiu Tu.
'I'm a seasoned fourth-tier evil god, surely I won't be caught by Qiu Tu again?'
'Hmm... I'll go back and see what he's doing first. Then I'll take the opportunity to recover my strength.'
"Once our strength has fully recovered to the mid-fourth tier, we'll find a way to capture him and use him to block Star Fury!"
With that in mind, Lariro happily began searching for things in Zehime's treasure vault.
Soon, she found a dress that Zehime liked, and also a Cataclysmic Treasure for storage.
Then she dressed, casually grabbed some of the Cataclysmic Materials that Zhao Ji had stored away, and put the last "Boundless Divine Crystal," which was the form of a fourth-tier evil god, into the Cataclysmic Treasure before leaving Zhao Ji's treasure vault...
Piercing through layers of gravel, passing over the lush green grassland overhead, and returning to the ground.
La Ri Luo took off into the air, then determined her direction and flew at high speed towards the "Eastern District" near the edge of the New Territories!
After she left, the once thriving and vibrant small grassland seemed to have lost its source of power, slowly turning yellow and withering away.
Soon, the entire lush green grassland turned the same color as the desert.
A moment later, a gust of wind blew, and the withered weeds of that small grassland instantly weathered away, then mixed with the swirling yellow sand, becoming indistinguishable from the rest of the landscape...
.........
at the same time.
New Territories City, Investigation Department, 12th Floor, Qiu Tu's Office.
Qiu Tu finally stopped pretending.
He leaned back in his chair, looking at Guan Xiao with interest, and then said with a smile, "It seems that Minister Guan does have some skills after all."
