She couldn't quite understand what that feeling was.
But at that moment, Qiu Tu didn't give her much time to think.
He pinned Tang Feifei to the ground, ripped off the towel she was wearing, and loomed over her!
This time, Tang Feifei once again felt what set Qiu Tu and Liu Fu apart from the rest....
Several times she wanted to turn over and sing like a liberated serf!
But... she was, after all, a woman of her word.
So... even though she cursed herself countless times for agreeing to Qiu Tu too hastily, throughout the day and night, she really never initiated contact with Qiu Tu, nor did she resist him...
She was just secretly exerting herself!
And Qiu Tu, this time, really put in some tough kung fu.
He knew, to conquer the woman before him, he had to give her an unforgettable experience!
Thus, he didn't give her much chance to rest!
And so, late into the night, the two finally fell asleep in each other's arms, and by that time, the 200-plus square meter resting room, in every bedroom, was already filled with traces of their battle....
As he was dozing off in his drowsy state, Qiu Tu also silently marveled in his heart: Tang Feifei was truly strong! And truly wild!
If he hadn't advanced to a Changer and gained incredible enhancements to his body, plus, if he hadn't forbidden Tang Feifei from taking charge...
He estimated... after this ordeal, his back would've declared its retirement....
[4 and a half days (Yin Caimei case closure time)]
[1 and a half days (Danger in the dark)]
The next day, along with the first rays of morning sunshine.
Qiu Tu slowly woke up from his deep sleep.
His first instinct was to rub his eyes, but as soon as he lifted his arm, he felt a sore ache in his arms and back!
Qiu Tu took a sharp breath, then came to his senses amid the soreness, examined his arms, and only then did he belatedly remember the glorious achievements of the previous day and night.
Thinking about his hard work from the previous day, laboring to the point where he could only bury his head and toil, thinking about Tang Feifei, who was almost torn apart by the ordeal, he silently lit a candle for his back....
Feeling that his back might be of no use anymore.
Thinking this, he shifted his thighs slightly, and the soreness shot up to his crown.
'Forget it, let's light another candle for Yue Kua as well, probably wrecked too....'
Silent in his reflections on the intensity of the previous day's battle, Qiu Tu instinctively reached beside him, only to find that the place was already empty, leaving only a faint scent of jasmine...
Although he had long known their encounter was just a transaction, at that moment, Qiu Tu felt a bit disappointed.
'Even if there's no merit, there's still hard work, right?'
'That's quite ungrateful!'
Just as he was thinking this, suddenly, the bedroom door opened. Tang Feifei, barefoot, bare-legged, naked, walked over carrying a bowl of medicine.
Her legs were long, her body's curvature was enchanting, seemingly containing an endless explosive power and resilience.
Her walk had a rhythm that was hard to describe, like a panther moving silently and swiftly through the jungle, every step full of strength and rhythm.
When she arrived at Qiu Tu's side, she bent down to set down the medicine, then said indifferently, "Drink it. You worked hard last night."
This scene felt familiar, this statement was also oddly phrased.
But since the [Crisis Countdown] did not pop up, Qiu Tu knew that Tang Feifei had no intention of harming him.
So he picked up the bowl of medicine, tilted his head back, and downed it in one gulp.
As the potion slid down his throat, Qiu Tu felt a wave of coolness wandering through his arms, back, and thighs; the soreness seemed to be gradually fading away.
Qiu Tu raised his arm and straightened his back in amazement, and to his surprise, they were neither sore nor painful anymore.
Seeing Qiu Tu's reaction, Tang Feifei smiled slightly, "Why were you so vigorous last night?"
"Even I felt sore all over when I got up this morning and had to drink this Cataclysmic Potion for recovery."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu coughed, and with a serious expression, said, "I, like the Bureau Chief, am true to my word."
"The Bureau Chief resisted the urge to fight back and didn't touch me during the ferocity of last night. Since I said I would stay with you for a night, I would certainly stay the whole night!"
Hearing this, Tang Feifei paused for a moment, half-squinting her eyes, smiling ambiguously as she glanced at Qiu Tu. But she didn't say anything further.
However, from the unintentional charm she exuded, Qiu Tu could still sense a slight change in the way this woman in front of him related to him and her attitude toward him....?
Just as Qiu Tu was trying to figure out Tang Feifei's change, Tang Feifei slowly stood up. She walked over to the wardrobe, took out a new binding cloth, and as she began to bind her chest, she said to Qiu Tu in a detached tone, "It's already 9 o'clock."
"You might be seen if you leave through the main entrance."
"I'll take you through the safe passage in a while."
Hearing this, Qiu Tu asked curiously, "A safe passage? There's a safe passage in the office?"
Having finished binding her chest, Tang Feifei started getting dressed as she looked down and explained, "Of course."
"The Planning Area isn't like the Sanctuary; it doesn't have all kinds of defensive facilities and experts."
"Therefore, many cities could face powerful Cataclysmic Creatures or attacks by Anti-government Armed Forces on major power institutions."
"That's why high-level offices often have a direct-to-ground-floor safe passage as emergency insurance."
"That shouldn't be hard to understand, right?"
Hearing Tang Feifei's words, Qiu Tu blinked and suddenly seemed pensive....
'Emergency passage....'
Thinking of what Tang Feifei said about all the high-levels having such insurance, and recalling how he had also looked for insurance before backstabbing Yan Chen, he suddenly had an epiphany....
He seemed to have guessed why Old Master Qin was so composed at the Security Department!
With this thought, Qiu Tu leapt up from the bed with an excited face and hugged Tang Feifei, kissing her cheek, "Bureau Chief! You truly are my lucky star! I've got it! I've got it!"
Tang Feifei looked at Qiu Tu somewhat dumbfounded, her face reddening slightly, but she still maintained her Bureau Chief's posture, patting Qiu Tu's shoulder, "Alright, we're short on time."
Realizing that now was not the time for celebration, Qiu Tu quickly got dressed, putting on his uniform. Then he followed Tang Feifei to the safe passage.
The so-called safe passage was actually a tube wide as a bucket. Sliding down the tube would take you directly to a hidden area on the ground floor.
This area was concealed within the partition between the outer and inner walls of the first floor, accessible through a hidden door that perfectly matched the exterior wall.
And around that hidden door, they'd planted holly of human height, adding to the concealment.
Following Tang Feifei's instructions, Qiu Tu left the Investigation Bureau's office building through the safe passage, and then... took a walk around the office building before sneaking back in.
Upon returning to the Investigation Bureau, Qiu Tu didn't delay and went straight to the 9th floor.
Since it was a workday, nearly all the members of the investigation team had arrived on the 9th floor.
Even Wang Xi, who was always out "working," the slacker expert Song Qing, and... Liu Fuping, who Qiu Tu had cheated on, had all come.
Seeing Qiu Tu, the agents on the scene immediately stood up and greeted him, "Chief!" "Hello, Chief!" "Good morning, Chief!"
Qiu Tu smiled and looked around at them, then opened with a promise, "You've all worked hard. Once we finish this case, we'll take a break!"
After speaking, he called out a few names, "Big Biao, Chen Feng, Zhu Huoyan, Ding Xiaoliu... You guys come out with me."
Seeing that Qiu Tu didn't call her name, Liu Fuping pondered for a moment and quickly sashayed forward, volunteering herself, "Chief~ take me with you too."
Qiu Tu glanced at her, quickly considered the matter. Today's affair wasn't sensitive, and Liu Fuping likely wouldn't mess things up, so he nodded in agreement.
With Tang Feifei's "Trigger Paper Figure" at his disposal, Qiu Tu was no longer worried about those attacks from the darkness.
So, after assembling his team, they left the Investigation Bureau en masse, ready to make an arrest!
Just now in Tang Feifei's lounge, Qiu Tu had finally realized why Old Master Qin remained so confident in the face of the Security Department's interrogation.
The reason was simple; he truly had a backup plan, or rather... insurance.
Why could "Immortality" only have one body?
Why couldn't it involve dividing the soul into two, or controlling two bodies at the same time?
With this, all of Old Master Qin's bizarre behaviors had their answers.
The reason he kept denying the charges wasn't that he thought he could escape responsibility but was buying time for his "insurance"!
He was allowing his "insurance" to escape smoothly or move critical data and assets!
It was precisely this layer of insurance that made Old Master Qin so calm in the face of such dire straits! Because... he wasn't afraid of dying!
With this realization, Qiu Tu felt that all the mysteries could be explained.
So what he was going to do today was to extinguish Old Master Qin's last hope!
