Let them show their loyalty!

When Qiu Tu heard Yan Chen ask this question, he knew that the most critical step had come.

He secretly glanced at Jia Shu with his peripheral vision.

Perhaps he did not expect Qiu Tu to have found so many clues, or he did not expect Qiu Tu to dare to go against his previous hints and really investigate the case seriously. Jia Shu finally stopped being as nonchalant as before, and looked at Qiu Tu with a smile.

Feeling the gaze of the two big men, Qiu Tu did not feel much pressure.

The reason why he dared to talk about so many clues and progress was that he had already thought of a plan to deal with this crisis -

So, he looked at Yan Chen, took a deep breath, and suddenly pointed at Jia Shu, "Director, I suspect it was Minister Jia who did it!"

[14:58]

After hearing Qiu Tu's words, the whole office fell silent in an instant.

Not to mention Yan Chen, even Jia Shu, who had been faking a smile, showed a look of surprise on his face.

He probably really didn't expect that Qiu Tu had said so much, and in the end he actually suspected himself:

The problem is. Didn't Qiu Tu's clues just now point to himself?

This is nonsense!

But thinking that Qiu Tu would never shoot without a purpose, Jia Shu couldn't help but think about Qiu Tu's intentions

While Jia Shu was thinking, Yan Chen's brows obviously frowned, and his eyes fluctuated: He was obviously thinking about why Qiu Tu would identify Jia Shu.

During this period, Qiu Tu had left a very deep impression in his heart.

So, he didn't believe that Qiu Tu really thought Jia Shu would be the murderer, and pointed it out in front of Jia Shu.

At this time, seeing that the two big guys were all lost in thought, Qiu Tu also held his breath, looked straight ahead, and stopped talking.

He was waiting, waiting for the feedback from [Loyalty Game] and [Crisis Sense].

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was like a year.

Finally, two seconds later, two prompts popped up in front of Qiu Tu,

[Yan Chen's suspicion -3, satisfaction +4]

[Jia Shu's satisfaction +12]

Qiu Tu secretly glanced at the two.

Yan Chen once again returned to his calm expression, while Jia Shu's fake smile was replaced by a brilliant real smile.

More importantly, the [Countdown Hourglass] in the upper left corner of Qiu Tu's sight slowly stopped after jumping to [14:28] and stopped jumping.

Qiu Tu breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had made the right bet.

In fact, when assigning tasks to Cao Dabiao and others just now, Qiu Tu was thinking about one thing.

The reason why the [Crisis Sense] did not prompt who the crisis came from this time, did it mean that this crisis came from both Yan Chen and Jia Shu?

In other words, no matter which side he chose, he might be hated by the other side, and thus become extremely dangerous?

After analyzing this, Qiu Tu immediately came up with a bolder guess: that is. No matter which side he chose, would he offend not one person, but two people!

You know, Jia Shu is not only Yan Chen's right-hand man, but also one of the nine senior officials of the Exploration Bureau. He has the right to vote in the high-level meeting of the Exploration Bureau.

In addition, he controls the Political Department, the most powerful department of the Exploration Bureau. Even if Yan Chen is dissatisfied with him, will he really give up on him because of such a small matter?

Qiu Tu thinks not.

Qiu Tu also has subordinates. He put himself in their shoes and thought about it. If Cao Dabiao or Chen Feng did something that he didn't like, would he give up on them immediately?

No. At most, Qiu Tu would severely knock and warn the two, and then continue to observe.

After all, it is not a simple matter to cultivate a subordinate with good ability, loyalty, and position.

After thinking all this clearly, Qiu Tu finally understood his situation.

To put it bluntly, his first reaction after seeing the [Crisis Prompt] was not wrong: he was a part of the play between Yan Chen and Jia Shu.

So, it would be wrong for him to choose anyone. Only by standing on the side of both of them at the same time and satisfying both of them can he survive this crisis.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu quickly analyzed the "demands" of Yan Chen and Jia Shu.

Yan Chen's was very simple. He was obviously angry and dissatisfied with Jia Shu's loss of control. Therefore, he had to follow him and not let him continue to feel that things were out of control.

Coupled with Yan Chen's several increases in "satisfaction" and the prompts of [crisis sense]. Qiu Tu knew that Yan Chen should have believed in himself again and regarded himself as his confidant.

Therefore, in order to satisfy Yan Chen, Qiu Tu must cut off his relationship with Jia Shu and must stand firmly on Yan Chen's side. Use "actual actions" to tell Yan Chen: Jia Shu, that villain, deceived his superiors and subordinates, but he did not deceive me! I am still doing things according to your mind, Director.

As for Jia Shu's "demands", Qiu Tu also had an answer after analyzing it for a long time on the road.

The reason why Jia Shu risked dissatisfaction with Yan Chen to settle this case this time was 100% because of Vice President Tian.

As for whether he had some kind of private relationship with Vice President Tian, ​​or whether it was for the city-wide communication monitoring system that Vice President Tian "donated", Qiu Tu was not sure for the time being because there was too little information.

But no matter what the reason was, what he should pay most attention to now was that this case could not be related to Vice President Tian!

As long as this condition was met, with his personality, the rest should not matter.

So, after guessing the demands of the two, Qiu Tu's answer to this crisis came out:

No perfunctory, no scapegoat, must honestly report the truth he found - but this truth cannot involve Vice President Tian.

Not involving Vice President Tian means that the Qin family and Shunyun Communications cannot be told.

After all, as long as it is said, Yan Chen and Jia Shu's shrewdness will be able to guess the role played by Vice President Tian. It will still affect Vice President Tian and annoy Jia Shu.

So. After thinking about it, Qiu Tu simply threw the pot to Jia Shu.

This is a hint of killing two birds with one stone: it tells Yan Chen that he has nothing to do with Jia Shu and even dares to challenge his authority in person; it also tells Jia Shu that he actually found out about Vice President Tian, ​​but followed your orders and did not report it.

Qiu Tu admitted that his way of breaking the situation does have a gambling element. But he only had 2 minutes from receiving the order to meeting Yan Chen, and there was no way to think of a more perfect plan.

Fortunately, this plan worked.

At this time, when Qiu Tu was recalling his entire plan, Yan Chen also laughed twice.

Maybe he smoked too much, and his voice was very dry and hoarse when he laughed, like an ominous night owl.

"Qiu Tu, your speculation is very interesting." At this point, he looked at Jia Shu with interest. The cold atmosphere when he first entered the office seemed to have dissipated a lot, and he became more popular.

He asked in a hoarse voice, "Minister Jia, what do you think of your subordinate's speculation?"

Obviously, he was using Qiu Tu to hit Jia Shu.

But Jia Shu didn't care at all at this time. Vice President Tian was not exposed, which proved that Qiu Tu had him in his "heart".

So, he also smiled brightly and bowed slightly to Yan Chen, saying, "Director, I think Agent Qiu is joking there."

Yan Chen looked at Qiu Tu, "Oh?" and asked, "Really?"

Qiu Tu must stand firmly on Yan Chen's side at this time.

So he shook his head quickly, "Director, I'm not kidding."

He said, "Minister Jia is indeed the first on my list of suspects."

"There are three main reasons."

"1. The murder weapon, that is, the book-like disaster artifact, was specially approved by Minister Jia to be brought into the guard room by the deceased."

"2. Last night, when I was using the [Mist Index Book] to investigate the case, my boss, the head of the interrogation department, Zheng Tao, deliberately came to the morgue."

"But only Minister Jia knew that I would go to the morgue to investigate the case last night. I suspect that Zheng Tao was arranged by Minister Jia to go there to get information."

"3. And the most important."

Speaking of this, Qiu Tu looked at Jia Shu deeply and said in a muffled voice, "When Minister Jia asked me to take over this case, he hinted many times that I should find a scapegoat to fool this case."

[Yan Chen Satisfaction +5]

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Yan Chen actually laughed "haha" twice. There was a sense of regaining control of the situation and winning a great victory.

What's more important is that Qiu Tu has been secretly observing Jia Shu's expression.

There is no murderous intent or ill will towards him in Jia Shu's eyes, only "interest" that is so strong that it seems to be real.

Obviously, as long as he doesn't drag Vice President Tian into the water, he doesn't care how much dirty water is thrown on him.

Anyway, Yan Chen won't really believe it.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu felt more at ease.

[Jia Shu's satisfaction +3]

At this time, Yan Chen also retracted his smile after laughing twice. He became the director of the Investigation Bureau again, who was always loyal and never showed his emotions.

He looked at Qiu Tu and criticized in a low voice, "Qiu Tu, I can see your ability to investigate cases. But your thinking is completely wrong!"

"This time, I forgive you on behalf of Minister Jia. But there won't be a next time!"

He paused and said in a way that was quite indirect, "You can't question or oppose your superiors at any time!"

"This will mess up the entire investigation agency!"

Hearing Yan Chen's criticism that sounded harsh but actually had no strength at all, Qiu Tu also knew that it was time to bring the topic back. So he bowed his head and said, "Yes, Director. I am not experienced enough and went in the wrong direction."

Yan Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Okay. It's good to have this understanding."

He said with a deep look, "I originally thought that it was a bit too difficult for you to handle this case, so I was going to change someone to handle it."

"But now I see that you have done a good job, so I will continue to hand over this case to you."

"But the Municipal Committee is keeping a close eye on this case, so you have to find the murderer as soon as possible and close the case!"

After saying that, he thought for a while and gave a deadline, "I want to see the result by next Wednesday at the latest!"

As Yan Chen said, the first countdown hourglass in the upper left corner of Qiu Tu slowly turned into a small treasure chest. Then the second countdown hourglass slowly emerged.

Qiu Tu:? ?

Qiu Tu glanced at Jia Shu, who was looking at him with a smile.

Qiu Tu looked at Yan Chen again, but Yan Chen had a serious face.

Qiu Tu:

At that moment, Qiu Tu's heart was really filled with 10,000 horses galloping!

Damn it, you two crazy couples love and hate each other, why do you torture a small shrimp like me? !

Did I provoke you?

One time is not enough, you want a second time?

This time I was able to satisfy both of your requests at the same time because of the information gap. How can I satisfy both of your requests next time! ?

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu wanted to refuse.

As a result, before he could speak, a countdown hourglass quickly rushed to the side of the first two hourglasses.

At the same time, the prompt of the third countdown hourglass also jumped out:

[With your wonderful performance, Yan Chen regained his trust in you. ]

[And with your "help", he also successfully knocked Jia Shu and regained the feeling of being in power. ]

[So, don't disobey him or anger him when he is happiest. ]

[You don't want to know what he will do to you when he is furious.]

Qiu Tu: ? ? ?

Okay, okay. That's how you play it, right?

Then don't blame me!

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu took a deep breath, then he looked at Yan Chen and said seriously, "Sir, I feel I can complete the task!"

"But time is a bit tight, I apply for authorization to use special means without restrictions!"
