Looking at the countdown and text that suddenly appeared in front of him, Qiu Tu had a question mark on his head. ‘Is this Goldfinger? ’ A cheat that indicates risk? Qiu Tu thought for a moment and felt that although it was a bit weak, it was acceptable. After all, without this [Crisis Smell] prompt, he would not have known that Yan Ai had learned some information from the maid, began to suspect that he and Qin Shuman were having an affair, and was ready to test him. When he picked up the call, if he dared to tell a lie to cover up the matter, he would die in a dirty sewer the next day. In this case, this golden finger saved his life. ‘You can’t replace the gold finger anyway, it’s useless to think about it, so let’s find a way to solve the problems we are facing now’ Thinking like this, Qiu Tu looked at the pile of prompts in front of him and began to ponder how to deal with this matter. The communicator "buzzed" and vibrated in the palm of my hand, and the bright red countdown beat like a heart.
【1:56】 【1:55】 【1:52】 【1：51】 【1:48】 【1:47】 Time passed minute by minute, until [1:45], Qiu Tu's eyes slowly became firm, and then he pressed the connect button without hesitation! The next moment, the expression on his face switched seamlessly, and he said respectfully into the communicator, "Director, are you looking for me?" "I have something going on here, so I was late picking up the call." I don't know if it was the lingering influence of his previous life, but Qiu Tu spoke those flattering words extremely smoothly. It was so smooth that he was a little surprised. 【1:42】 【1：41】 Hearing Qiu Tu's tone that was the same as before, Yan Ai on the other side of the communicator was not suspicious. He gave a deep "hmm" and then said, "Qiu Tu, I have something to do for you. ” "The Xiafang Street Police Station arrested a pharmacist selling black medicine. You go over and take that person back to the station. I can be useful." 【1:27】 【1:26】 Qiu Tu glanced at the countdown with increasingly smaller numbers and responded quickly, "Yes, Director!" However, after answering, he pretended to be difficult and said, "But, Director, I" Yan Ai said majestically, "What? Is there a problem?"
He was like a volcano about to erupt, and Qiu Tu could clearly feel the heavy pressure even through the communicator. 【1:18】 However, Qiu Tu was not affected by Yan Ai. His tone continued unchanged and he whispered, "Director, actually I have some other things to do here." Then, he deliberately hesitated for two seconds, and then he said as if he had made up his mind, "Director, in fact, I have something I want to report to you in the past two days, but because I have no evidence, I dare not tell you. " "Qin Shuman has a problem. I suspect she is a nail sent by the municipal committee to monitor you!" As these words were spoken, the air became quiet for a moment, and the countdown seemed to freeze, frozen at [1:03]. Just like that, after freezing for 5 seconds, the countdown started beating again. Yan Ai on the other side of the communicator also asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean?" 【1:00】 With only the last minute left, the color of the countdown turned dazzling scarlet and began to flash crazily. Qiu Tu was not in a hurry. He explained calmly, "Director, during this period, I have been following your order to protect the safety of Miss Schumann. However, I found that something is not right with her." "For example, I remember you said that she had just arrived in the New Territories City from the disaster area, but she seemed to know the New Territories City very well." "For example, she is not a resident of the shelter like us, but her skin is so smooth and fair, without any scars or calluses." "For example, every time I appear next to her, she will try to talk to me, take the initiative to talk about some of your topics, and get information about you." "All these signs prove that she may not be as simple as she seems." "Besides, don't you think it's a bit too coincidental?" "The New Territories city is so big and chaotic. Why did you happen to find such a beautiful person?" "Are everyone else blind with such a beauty? Wouldn't they want to take it for themselves?" "Is this really reasonable?" Speaking of this, Qiu Tu paused and said, "So, I have been trying to please her these past few days, expressing my love secretly to gain her trust." "Maybe my approach really deceived her trust. She told me today that she felt like a canary in a cage and wanted to go out alone. So I cooperated with her to get rid of the girl. The maid and other security personnel came out alone with her." "In the past few hours, I have been by her side, secretly observing her every move, trying to figure out what she wanted to do." [0:15] This time, the flashing red countdown seems to have stopped completely. Yan Ai on the other side of the communicator was silent for two seconds and asked, "Then what did you find?" Qiu Tu, "I found nothing." As if he saw Yan Ai's suddenly gloomy face over the communicator, Qiu Tu added after a pause, "But this is the biggest problem!" "She went through all the trouble to get away from everyone and ran out just to go shopping?" "Director, is this reasonable?"
Yan Ai was silent. Two seconds later, he did not answer Qiu Tu's question, but asked, "Then why did you say she was sent by the municipal committee to monitor me?" Qiu Tu, "Guess." "After all, the entire New Territories City knows that the Municipal Committee and our Investigation Department are not at odds with each other, and Commissioner Jiang is even more at odds with you." Yan Nai snorted coldly. Qiu Tu stopped talking and did not continue to talk about the big guys' personal affairs. Instead, he changed his tone and concluded, "That's why when I consider the objects of suspicion, I will be the first to suspect the municipal committee." "However, I am still verifying it, and there is no evidence." Yan Ai's tone softened obviously. He thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then where are you now?" Qiu Tu, "At my house." "Miss Schumann requested it." "She is playing video games there now, and I found an excuse to hide in the toilet to receive your communication." Yan Ai heard this and said "Yeah". Then he did not express his attitude to Qiu Tu, but returned to his original topic, "Then I will arrange for others to do the work on Xiafang Street first. You can continue to accompany Schumann." "Yes! Director!" Qiu Tu bowed slightly to obey the order respectfully, as if Yan Ai could see him, "I will help you confirm the identity of Miss Schumann and live up to your trust." Yan Ai did not answer the call, but hung up the communication. Listening to the "beep." sound on the other side of the receiver, Qiu Tu, who knew that he had escaped danger for the time being, slowly let out a breath. His waist slowly straightened, and the smile on his face gradually faded, becoming expressionless. During the years he spent in a fraud group in northern Myanmar, he learned a lot, including observing people's emotions, understanding people's psychology, and finding the weaknesses in each person's character. Yan Ai's character weakness is obvious: suspicious. Such people, once they have a hint of doubt, will not stop easily. Therefore, after Qiu Tu knew that he was "exposed", he understood that the more he explained, the easier it would be to arouse Yan Ai's suspicion. Moreover, for a big man like Yan Ai, any confidant or mistress is just a dog begging for charity. In such troubled times, two low-level people who have not even obtained shelter status will be killed as long as they have the slightest suspicion or dissatisfaction. Therefore, if Qiu Tu wants to survive, he must introduce [third-party forces] that can make Yan Ai jealous. Only in this way can Yan Ai restrain his emotions and not dare to act recklessly. Give Qiu Tu time to resolve the crisis. And this [third-party force] that Yan Ai is afraid of is the Municipal Committee. [Municipal Committee] is the highest authority in New Territories City and controls all legislative, personnel, financial and other powers in New Territories City. In theory, the Bureau of Investigation should also take orders from the Municipal Council. However, in order to check and balance power, when the shelter dispatches senior managers, the municipal committee, the Exploration Agency and the Military Department all have the right to directly interface with the shelter.
Therefore, in the area to be planned, the three parties are relatively independent. The municipal committee cannot forcefully order the other two parties and can only use various means such as interests, situation, and justice to make them obey. This results in a very delicate relationship between the three parties that is both full of contradictions and requires cooperation. In this case, Yan Ai, a wily and scheming person, would probably be cautious when faced with a person who was suspected of being installed by the municipal committee. Before Qin Shuman's identity and the municipal committee's thoughts are clear, he will not easily attack the two people and break the delicate balance in New Territories City. And such lies will also turn Qiu Tu and Qin Shuman into a potentially antagonistic relationship with Yan Ai, reducing the suspicion that the two may have an affair. Coupled with Qiu Tu's "frank" initiative to expose the whereabouts of the two, I believe that the credibility of this information will be greatly increased by Yan Ai. Although the whole plan was bold, and although there would be more problems in the future, it was already the best plan Qiu Tu could come up with in more than ten seconds. After recalling the plan he had made, Qiu Tu looked deeply at the stagnant countdown in the upper left corner, and continued to check for gaps in his plan in his mind. ‘Although my performance was pretty good, I also replaced the original question with a new one, guiding Yan Ai’s suspicion direction. ’ ‘But given Yan Ai’s suspicious character, the seeds of doubt have already been sown. Is it really so easy to dispel them? ’ ‘Can things really be that simple? ’ Following Qiu Tu's thought, the countdown hourglass in the upper left corner of his sight suddenly slowly changed.
