Qiu Tu's steps paused slightly, but returned to normal in the next second.
While he continued to move forward calmly, he glanced at the upper left corner of his vision.
Similar to last time, several new prompts popped up in front of Qiu Tu.
"Congratulations on successfully surviving the crisis just now, but you also attracted Yan Ai's attention."
"He has developed a certain curiosity about your changes, secrets and lies."
"But fortunately, he is in the midst of a huge storm vortex, and he doesn't want to invest too much energy into a weakling for the time being."
"Cherish the calm before the storm. After all, you only have 24 hours to rest."
As the prompt ended, the hourglass slowly turned into a treasure chest, but unlike the treasure chest that was opened directly last time, this time the treasure chest turned gray and had a 24-hour countdown on it.
【23:59:59】
Qiu Tu:
Good news: There is no new countdown for the time being, which means that you are safe at least tonight.
Bad news: The reward has to wait 24 hours, and the reason I passed the level this time was because I attracted Yan Ai's attention, not because Yan Ai trusted me.
To put it bluntly, his lies did not deceive Yan Ai, but the Aurora Stone successfully aroused Yan Ai's greed, so he did not attack himself.
Although he had guessed this possibility as early as the final game, Qiu Tu was still a little disappointed: The boss is so smart and has no sense of achievement. How easy is it to defeat him?
I still like the simple mode and don't like to step on a tightrope like this.
It would be great if next time I could get a cheat that "reduces the difficulty"
While looking forward to the future in his heart, Qiu Tu walked outside.
Stepping out of the villa, the moonlight was like water, casting a mysterious and charming blue veil on this quiet night.
The moon after the cataclysm is blue. This is because the atmosphere of this world is filled with tiny particles with a diameter slightly larger than 0.7 microns (red waves). Such tiny particles can scatter red light, so people underground can see
It's the blue moon.
"What a polluted world," Qiu Tu sighed inwardly as he walked through the garden.
In the garden, various flowers loomed under the blue moon, exuding a faint fragrance. They swayed gently in the evening breeze, like whispering elves, but Qiu Tu, who was thoughtful, had no intention of admiring them.
After leaving the garden and just walking to the sentry post, Qiu Tu saw two familiar figures squatting on the roadside - Artai and Yingying.
The two of them were side by side, each holding their hands, like two large penguins squatting on the roadside. Artai held a piece of weed picked from somewhere in his mouth and chewed it with his head raised, while the eagle watched with vigilance from the corner of his eye.
There is movement all around.
Perhaps because their postures and movements were too weird, the security agents at the sentry kept a close eye on them. If it weren't for the agent uniforms they were wearing, they would have been chasing them away.
Yingying was the first to see Qiu Tu come out. He patted Artai, quickly stood up and greeted him, "Brother Tu."
Artest, on the other hand, was much more cheerful. When he saw Qiu Tu, he spat out the weeds in his mouth with a "tui~" sound, and then rushed forward shouting, "Brother! You're out!"
Looking at the two figures, one tall and one short, running over, Qiu Tu was startled at first, and then a warm current surged in his heart.
At the same time, Yan Ai's study room.
It was still the dim light, and Yan Ai was still hidden in the darkness.
"Have everyone around him been checked?"
Jia Shu sat opposite him and said with a smile, "I checked. They are all low-life gangsters and scoundrels. It is impossible to have access to disaster materials."
"He took advantage of your tiger skin and placed these people in grassroots police stations as temporary agents, so it didn't take much effort to investigate, and the authenticity of the information is also very reliable."
Yan Nai sneered and said in a hoarse voice, "He is quite loyal."
After commenting on this sentence, Yan Ai stopped talking, and the room gradually became quiet.
After a long while, Yan Ai said again, "Then the only way he can access the Aurora Stone is through the Qin family?"
Jia Shu nodded, "Theoretically, that's the case. But my intuition tells me it's not."
Yan Ai also shook his head, "I don't think so either."
He was playing with the aurora stone in his hand, "That kid thought he could easily get away by making up a bizarre story like a fantasy. It's really fantastic."
"There must be a secret about him, and it's a big secret."
"But I haven't had time to pay attention to such a small role like him recently."
After hearing what Yan Ai said, Jia Shu asked tentatively, "Do you want me to control him directly?"
"You should know my methods. No one can survive a night?" He made a torture gesture.
Yan Ai hesitated for a second, but finally shook his head.
"No. If he can get the Aurora Stone, there must be someone behind him."
"Recently, the city hall has been watching me, so I don't want to cause trouble."
Having said this, he paused and then said, "Let him and the Qin family dog ​​bite the dog."
"Didn't he want to go to the Qin family with the 'Notice of Voting'? Then give it to him."
"Catastrophic materials are controlled resources and cannot be given to him."
"But I remember that a pharmacist was caught selling black medicine in Xiafang Street today?"
With that said, Yan Nai put the aurora stone in his hand and the gold bars and silver coins on the table back into the cloth bag, and then threw them to Jia Shu together.
"You can arrange for someone to bring out the pharmacist tomorrow and send them to him along with these things."
"A pharmacist who can make catastrophic potions is much more valuable than some catastrophic resources."
"I want to see how he plans to act in this drama."
【12:09:57(treasure box)】
Early the next morning, Qiu Tu was awakened by a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.
He yawned and got up from the bed, then kicked away Artest and Eagle who were crowded around him.
Qiu Tu and his wife had no close friends for a long time. In addition, they had just passed a crisis yesterday and needed a channel to vent. So they took the two of them to drink until late at night last night.
The three of us drank too much. So we just slept at Qiu Tu's house.
After pulling the two of them aside, Qiu Tu yawned and went to open the door.
The door opened, and outside was a uniformed agent.
When he saw Qiu Tu, he stood upright with his legs snapping and saluted, "Hello, sir!"
Qiu Tu responded with a salute reflexively, and then asked belatedly, "Are you...?"
The agent at the door said seriously, "Sir, I am Li Ke, the third-level agent of the Administrative Division. I am here to give you a new uniform and epaulettes on the order of our commander."
As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him, and immediately a temporary agent came to him holding a black agent uniform.
Black is the unique color of the Political Department and represents the official position of the [Secret Police].
There is a pair of epaulettes placed on the uniform, with three golden flowers nailed on the epaulettes, representing the status of a first-class agent.
Although he had received Yan Ai's promise last night, when all this was before his eyes, Qiu Tu's heartbeat could not help but accelerate.
And at this moment, "Brother Tu, what's wrong?" Artest's voice asked from behind him, "Who is here?"
But the next second, the inquiry turned into an exclamation, "I am Cao! A first-level agent of the Political Department?"
Qiu Tu turned around and saw Artai and Yingying staring at the door in shock.
Chapter completed!
