Chapter 127 Kneel down, Liu Duckweed (10,000 words for monthly votes!)
Feeling the eagle's movement, Qiu Tu was slightly startled.
Because this was not his arrangement, he would not let the Eagle deliver news to him at such a sensitive time.
However, compared to Artest's falling in love, Yingying and Akun have always done things safely.
Therefore, Qiu Tu believed that he must have some important information to convey to him, so he would play such a trick at such a sensitive time.
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu passed by the eagle calmly.
The two of them staggered each other, and when they turned around, one had already arrived in the elevator, and the other had walked to the corner of the corridor.
Watching the eagle slowly descending in the elevator, Qiu Tu arrived at the temporary office of the investigation team like a normal person.
Because today is the weekend and yesterday's tasks have been completed, the investigation team office is empty today.
Qiu Tu entered the office, locked the door, went to the window, opened the window, and then took out the paper ball handed to him by Eagle.
When he flattened the crumpled paper, Qiu Tu saw the sloppy handwriting of Eagle.
In the apocalypse of the wasteland, being able to read and write is already a great skill for the people at the bottom - obviously, Eagle does not have it.
Therefore, this letter was obviously copied by him or copied from someone else's.
And that person must be someone Yingying knows and trusts: otherwise, he would not take such a big risk to pass it on to Qiu Tu.
At that moment, a figure appeared in Qiu Tu's mind: Secretary Bai.
The relationship between Qiu Tu and Secretary Bai is not a secret among the small group of Qiu Tu, Artest and Eagle.
After all, Qiu Tu took the seriously injured Secretary Bai home and took care of him for so long. Yingying and Atai had all seen him.
Later, Qiu Tu was recruited into the Investigation Agency by Secretary Bai, and took all the men and dogs to heaven. When drinking, which of the brothers didn't praise Secretary Bai?
As for other people who might pass on information to Qiu Tu, such as Qin Shuman, Tang Feifei, and Yingying, they don't know each other, so it's impossible to easily trust their identities and pass on information to them.
After figuring out the identity of the letter writer, Qiu Tu began to read the whole letter carefully.
After reading the letter, Qiu Tu couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
His guess was correct, the letter was indeed written by Secretary Bai.
The reason is that Secretary Bai knows that Qiu Tu should be very interested in knowing the trends of the senior officials of the Investigation Agency and Yan Ai's attitude towards the whole incident yesterday.
That's why after the meeting with Yan Ai, he took the risk and wrote this letter. He went to Jiuxiang Street late at night, found Yingying, and asked him to deliver it to Qiu Tu on his behalf.
In order to ensure that his identity would not be revealed, he also asked Eagle to copy the letter before delivering it.
And looking at the scrawled and twisted handwriting on the entire letter, one can also imagine how desperate the illiterate Ying Ying felt when he received this task so late at night.
Even because he was illiterate, he copied many words incorrectly. Fortunately, his rough strokes were still there, so Qiu Tu understood the entire contents of Secretary Bai's letter without even guessing.
According to Secretary Bai's letter.
Last night, after Qiu Tu left, Yan Ai held a small meeting for him and Ji Chen.
In the small meeting, Yan Ai talked in detail about everything that happened yesterday, focusing on the theft of the vault and the Qin family being harassed by the security department. Then he asked the two people for their opinions and suspects.
Ji Chen was the first to suspect Qiu Tu.
After all, there were many weird things about Qiu Tu's behavior throughout the incident.
Even though Qiu Tu had given reasonable explanations for all the weird things, Ji Chen still felt that if too many coincidences happened to one person, then it must not be a coincidence.
Faced with Ji Chen's doubts, Yan Ai did not agree.
Secretary Bai didn't even need to speak, but directly refuted Ji Chen's opinion.
In the letter, Secretary Bai vividly described the scene at that time.
At that time, Yan Ai was sitting on the boss's chair, with the dim light shining on him. He was smoking a cigarette and explaining to Ji Chen with a deep frown on his face.
"The reason why I don't doubt Qiu Tu is actually for several reasons."
"First of all, the safe is placed in the lounge of my office. When storing the evidence, I did not let Qiu Tu follow him in."
"Instead, let Secretary Bai stay outside with him."
"So, he doesn't even know where I put the evidence, let alone the password to the safe."
"So, he can't steal the evidence I stored."
"Secondly, even if he has a [Catastrophic Noble Phantasm] that can transfer items without positioning."
"But. Since noon yesterday, he has been staying with me, almost never leaving my sight, and never communicating with anyone."
".There was no time to commit the crime."
"If we assume that he committed the crime in a gang, then the whole case will become extremely complicated. Because anyone can avoid suspicion by committing the crime in a gang."
"And even assuming that he really committed the crime in a gang, the whole thing doesn't make sense."
"Because. He has no motive."
Speaking of this, Yan Ai squinted his eyes, tapped the cigarette in the air a few times, and said seriously, "Except for random crimes, all murderers need a motive to commit crimes."
"Qiu Tu was promoted by me. I treat him quite well, and since his position is relatively low, there is still a lot of room for improvement."
"Follow me, it won't be a big problem for him to continue to rise."
"Moreover, just before the evidence was stolen, he was trying to show me his merits and wanted to be promoted!"
"Although I didn't give him a clear answer, I hinted that I would consider it carefully. He shouldn't not understand what I meant!"
Speaking of this, Yan Ai said with a serious face, "So, in this case, how high a price does the security department have to offer to buy him off?"
"Captain?"
"The Qin family's industry?"
"money?"
Yan Ai shook his head, "Don't say that the security department won't come up with these conditions. Even if it does come out, it's just a one-time deal. It's not as good as him doing well here with me and having a bright future."
"So, unless there is some irreconcilable conflict between him and me, it is impossible for him to betray me."
Speaking of this, Yan Ai pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and concluded, "Besides, I had doubted him before. It was later proven that I was wrong. It also delayed a lot of things."
"This time, I don't want to make this mistake again."
"So, let's talk about other candidates. Do you think Jia Shu is suspicious?"
The content of the next letter continued to talk about some of the three people's speculations about Jia Shu's identity.
All in all: the suspicion is high!
Obviously, after several times of guidance and alienation from Qiu Tu, Yan Ai had become deeply suspicious of his right-hand man.
After reading the entire letter, Qiu Tu also had some guesses about Secretary Bai's idea of writing to him.
Secretary Bai actually didn't know the role Qiu Tu played in the whole thing, and he didn't even know the truth.
He most likely saw Qiu Tu leaving in a "lost mood" after being scolded by Yan Ai last night.
He was worried that Qiu Tu would have knots in his mind or be frightened, so he took the risk of revealing the contents of the meeting to Qiu Tu - hoping to use Yan Ai's affirmation to relieve Qiu Tu's inner anxiety.
His purpose for doing this was similar to the last time he informed Qiu Tu about "Yin Caimei's death".
He is indeed Yan Ai's confidant, but he always remembers Qiu Tu's life-saving grace for him. Therefore, he is willing to give Qiu Tu more help as long as it does not violate his true feelings.
However, what he didn't know was that the two times he reported the information were actually wrong.
It wasn't Qiu Tu who killed Yin Caimei last time, but he suspected that it was Qiu Tu who secretly informed her.
It turned out that Qiu Tu had stolen the evidence this time. He thought it wasn't Qiu Tu, so he still secretly tipped him off.
Thinking of this, Qiu Tu felt that Lao Bai was really interesting because he was doing everything in reverse.
But no matter what his starting point is, the effect on Qiu Tu is the same.
Qiu Tu at least clearly understood Yan Ai's attitude towards him - although he didn't like him, he didn't doubt himself.
'In this case, I will have a lot more room for maneuver.'
"This is good news."
While thinking this, Qiu Tu took out a match and slowly burned the letter in his hand.
"Dong dong dong."
After Qiu Tu blew the ashes in his hand away from the window, the door of the office was suddenly knocked gently from outside.
Hearing the knock on the door, Qiu Tu closed the window carelessly, then strolled to the office door and opened it.
The door of the office opened, and the beautiful young woman Liu Duckweed was standing in the doorway pretty.
When she saw Qiu Tu, a smile appeared on her face that said, "Sure enough, I'm here." Then she pretended to be innocent and asked, "Sir, did you see what I left in the office?"
After hearing Liu Ducking's words, Qiu Tu didn't think much. He hesitated and asked, "What is it?"
Liu Duckweed heard this but did not answer. She walked into the office with a smile, then rummaged around Qiu Tu's desk, and finally took out a pair of black stockings from the drawer.
"Found it!" Holding the stocking, Liu Duckweed's face showed joy.
But then, she looked at Qiu Tu with a puzzled look and asked, "But, it's so strange. Why are my socks in your drawer, sir?"
As she said that, she blinked her charming peach blossom eyes and asked in a long voice, "Could it be that the officer hid it on purpose?"
Seeing Liu Duckweed pretending to be stupid and listening to those provocative words, Qiu Tu confirmed that the beautiful young woman in front of him was playing with something very new.
However, if you don’t take advantage of the benefits of having them delivered to your door, you won’t take advantage of them.
So while closing the door, he looked at Liu Duckweed and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Yes. Why are your stockings in my drawer?"
Speaking of this, Qiu Tu pretended to think for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "Did you put it in my drawer on purpose?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Duckweed chuckled.
She narrowed her peach blossom eyes, looked at Qiu Tu with a smile, and asked charmingly, "Sir, do you think I put it in your drawer on purpose?"
Qiu Tu found it interesting. He approached Liu Duckweed step by step and asked again, "What about you?"
Liu Duckweed didn't answer. She sat on Qiu Tu's desk, raised her left leg, and lifted her beady left foot in front of Qiu Tu. Then she put the stocking on her left foot and pulled it up little by little.
"Hiss!" Qiu Tu swore that he really didn't have certain hobbies in his previous life.
But seeing Liu Duckweed's seductive look today, his xp seemed to have really changed a little bit.
So, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Liu Duckweed's feet, and then slowly touched up along those slender legs little by little.
The stockings feel silky and smooth, not much different from the previous life.
Maybe she didn't expect Qiu Tu to be so bold. Liu Duckweed's body visibly stiffened, and then she felt that with Qiu Tu's slow caressing, goosebumps all over her body rose and her waist softened.
But a young woman is a young woman after all, not as shy as a young girl.
So she giggled with a red face, reached out and grabbed Qiu Tu's big hand that was about to touch his thigh, and then said, "Sir, it's a restricted area. If you want to enter, there is another price."
When Qiu Tu heard this, there was no need to force him. He stopped his hand, looked at Liu Duckweed with a smile, and asked, "What's the price?"
Liu Duckweed breathed out, "Tell me what you did yesterday?"
The corners of her eyes were slightly raised, and a pair of peach blossom eyes shone softly, making her look particularly charming. "The series of operations you performed yesterday were so beautiful."
"The entire New Territories city seems to be under your control."
"If I hadn't known some of your plans in advance, I would have been deceived by you."
Speaking of this, Liu Ducking grabbed Qiu Tu's hand touching his leg with one hand, raised Qiu Tu's chin with the other hand, and said coquettishly, "So, sir, how did you do it?"
Hearing this, Qiu Tu let go of his hand, took two steps back, leaned on another desk, and looked at Liu Duckweed with a smile, "I knew you must have some conspiracy to seduce me like this."
"Tell me. Who do you represent this time?"
"Director Tang? Or the one from Dongcheng City?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Duckweed jumped down from the table with a giggle.
Then she stepped forward, hugged Qiu Tu, and said, "I have them all."
"Both Director Tang and Director Liu are full of praise for your actions yesterday."
"Especially Director Tang.
"She gave me a hard time last night."
Speaking of this, Liu Duckweed made a pose like holding a crescent moon, "It hurts from rubbing here."
Seeing Liu Duckweed's actions that seemed to be complaining but were actually seductive, Qiu Tu's eyes suddenly became unclear.
He looked at the beautiful young woman in front of him with a smile, and then asked, "Are you sure you want to know what I did yesterday?"
Liu Duckweed's eyes lit up slightly, and there was a smile in the corners of her eyes, which was self-evident.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu reached out and pulled her in front of him, then looked into her eyes and said, "Then kneel down."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Duckweed's eyes suddenly opened wide and she looked at Qiu Tu in disbelief.
