After thinking quietly for a while, Zheng Tao took a deep breath.
He felt that there was no point in guessing, so he might as well talk to Qiu Tu directly.
Maybe many things are not what he thinks. Maybe Qiu Tu doesn't care about his wife at all?
Maybe, I just need to give in, admit my mistake, and offer some apology to solve this problem?
Thinking like this, Zheng Tao didn't even bother to eat, he got up directly and prepared to go to the 9th floor to meet Qiu Tu.
The result, right now.
Suddenly, there was a "dong dong dong" knock on his door.
As a workaholic and a master of involution, Zheng Tao can switch working status almost at any time.
Therefore, even though he was ready to get up to see Qiu Tu, when he heard someone knocking on the door, he sat down immediately, then briefly adjusted his expression, and then responded in a low voice, "Please come in."
Accompanied by his voice.
The door to the office was pushed open, and an agent who looked a little embarrassed came in.
Seeing the unfamiliar face, Zheng Tao asked with confusion, "Who are you?"
The detective looked at Zheng Tao expressionlessly and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner, "Director Zheng, there is a senior officer who wants to see you."
"Sir?" Zheng Tao was stunned for a moment after hearing the detective's words.
There are many officers in the Investigation Agency. Anyone above the deputy section chief can use this title, but the only ones who can be called officers in front of Deputy Director Zheng Tao are the nine real big shots in the Investigation Agency.
Thinking of this, Zheng Tao did not feel suddenly enlightened, but instead became more confused.
Because the nine senior executives have full-time secretaries, if there is something to summon the people below, the full-time secretary will inform them.
Why did an ordinary agent come to inform this time?
Thinking like this, Zheng Tao couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Who is the officer?"
The detective said calmly, "Follow me and you will know."
"Sir, I'm waiting for you on the 12th floor."
After hearing what the detective said, Zheng Tao still had a lot of doubts in his heart, but after all, he was going to the 12th floor and there was safety guarantee.
So, Zheng Tao finally stood up, nodded, and said, "Okay. I'll be there right away."
He followed the detective out of the office and onto the elevator. Soon, Zheng Tao reached the 12th floor.
After getting off the elevator and following the agent, Zheng Tao soon arrived at the door of the "officer's" office.
Looking up at the nameplate of the office, Zheng Tao's eyes flashed with surprise.
At this time, the detective opened the office door very familiarly, and then gestured towards Zheng Tao, "Director Zheng, please."
Seeing this, Zheng Tao quickly lowered his head and straightened his clothes before quickly walking in.
Walking into the office, a familiar figure was already standing by the window, looking out at the night outside the window, waiting for him.
Seeing that figure, Zheng Tao quickly wanted to salute and say hello, but at this moment, the other person put his index finger to his mouth and made a "silence" gesture.
Seeing this, Zheng Tao opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't call out the other person's name.
The figure reached out and gestured to Zheng Tao, asking him to sit down, and then slowly said, "Zheng Tao. If I remember correctly, you are actually an old man who followed the director down from the shelter."
Seeing Zheng Tao nodding, the figure continued, "I have read your file. When you were in the shelter, your ability was very outstanding. After being transferred to the New Territories City, your performance was also very outstanding."
"Based on your ability, in fact, in a few years, if you accumulate merit and experience, you can still hope to move up the ranks and move up the ranks."
"It's a pity that you were tricked by Qiu Tu a few days ago and your prestige was completely lost in front of so many agents in the agency. Not only did you fail to complete the tasks assigned to you by the director and me, but it also allowed Qiu Tu to expand his influence."
"This really makes me, and the director, very disappointed."
"After all, we put you in this position because we want you to control Qiu Tu, not because we want to see you make a fool of yourself."
Hearing the figure's words, Zheng Tao's face turned red and he clenched his hands tightly.
The failure of the past few days was indeed the greatest shame in his life.
Every time he thought about how he was being plotted by Qiu Tu and even allowed Qiu Tu to slap a little girl in the face, he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
In the past few days, he has been involved in internal affairs again, devoting himself wholeheartedly to the work of the Public Security Department, and he has not used work to numb his thoughts.
So, this is really a thorn in his heart.
The reason why he was so high-spirited to bet with Qiu Tu today was also the same reason.
Thinking of this, Zheng Tao felt even more uncomfortable for a moment.
At this moment, the figure slowly said, "However, the director and I can give you another chance."
"This time, as long as you do a good job, the director and I will still promote you."
Hearing the figure's words, Zheng Tao was stunned for a moment, then looked up with a surprised look on his face.
Zheng Tao tried his best to suppress his inner excitement, but his hot eyes still revealed his inner thoughts, "Do I still have a chance?"
He asked tentatively, "Can I still be promoted to director in the future?"
Hearing Zheng Tao's words, the cheerful figure laughed "haha" twice, and then said seriously, "Director?"
"You think too low."
"If this matter can be done well, we will transfer you back to the shelter to be gilded according to the process of cultivating the core of the Exploration Agency. After the establishment of Dongye Prefecture, you will be parachuted to the state to serve."
"At that time, let alone the director, it is not impossible to be the director of a city or a state legislator."
Hearing the pie drawn by that figure, Zheng Tao's breathing quickened for a moment.
The sequence for cultivating the core of the Exploration Agency is: first obtain basic status in the shelter, then be transferred to the area to be planned for rapid promotion, then return to the shelter to be gilded again, and then be transferred to the area for promotion.
In this way, you can make special promotions without waiting for the person above to vacate the position.
It is the promotion route for the real core talents of the Exploration Agency.
Can you give yourself the result now?
To be honest, Zheng Tao wanted to keep himself rational and not just believe in the pie painted by his boss, but you must know that his promotion was arranged by this senior executive!
The other party is not just trying to make a fool of yourself, but is actually offering naked benefits!
So, he really can’t help but be tempted!
However, Zheng Tao also knows: if you want to gain, you must give.
The more you gain, the more you pay.
So he tried his best to restrain his desires, restrain them, and restrain them again.
Then I couldn't restrain myself.
He looked at the figure in front of him with burning eyes and asked, "Sir, what do you want me to do?"
Seeing Zheng Tao taking the bait, the figure couldn't help but reveal an undetectable smile.
He turned around and faced Zheng Tao, playing with an ancient coin in his hand, and then asked softly, "I heard that you made a bet with Qiu Tu?"
Zheng Tao's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the coin.
That figure said, "The bet is to lend him your secretary for two days.?"
Hearing the figure's words, Zheng Tao couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, the figure played with the ancient coin and said with a smile, "And if I remember correctly, your secretary seems to be your wife, right?"
"I remember that according to the regulations of the Bureau of Investigation, this position cannot be held by relatives. Although you made a lot of preparations in advance for your husband and wife to work in the same department, you did not write down your relationship as husband and wife in the New Territories City's files."
"But in the shelter's files, you are an iron-clad couple."
"These little tricks of yours may work for others, but to us, they seem transparent."
Hearing this, Zheng Tao swallowed and felt a little cold all over. The knuckles of his hands were so clenched that they turned white.
Seeing this, the figure gave Zheng Tao two seconds to relax, and then continued to say slowly, "So, my mission is to ask you to continue this bet. Let your wife go to Qiu Tu.
, monitor him.”
"I will ask people to deliberately delay the arrangement of a secretary for Qiu Tu, so that he will have no one available for the time being and can only use your wife."
"And what your wife has to do is to gain his trust in these few days, preferably by becoming his real secretary."
"In this way, we can know Qiu Tu's movements in real time and know his various arrangements. If necessary, we can also give him some small gifts."
After hearing the figure's words, Zheng Tao obviously still wanted to struggle.
He said bitterly, "Sir, can you please replace me with someone else?"
"For example, when I cash out my bet, another person will be assigned to Qiu Tu as his secretary; or you can directly arrange for a more suitable spy to be his secretary."
After hearing Zheng Tao's words, the figure scolded, "Nonsense!"
"It's not like you don't know how alert Qiu Tu is."
"If I directly arrange a new secretary for him, will he believe it easily? If you temporarily replace him with another secretary, won't he be suspicious?"
"Only when a bet like yours happens suddenly, and it is a bet proposed by him on his own initiative, will he believe that the secretary has not made any arrangements."
"And all secretaries are uniformly trained and arranged by the administrative office. Your 'secretary' has just been selected by you. In his eyes, he has not developed a relationship with you yet and is a blank slate."
"Only such a unique trust condition will make him take the bait!"
"Otherwise, why do you think I would look for you!"
After hearing the words of the big man in front of him, Zheng Tao lowered his head and stopped talking.
Perhaps aware of Zheng Tao's inner resistance, the figure sighed slightly.
He strolled up to Zheng Tao, reached out and pinched the ancient coin in his hand, put it in front of Zheng Tao, and then said softly, "Zheng Tao, if I say, this is the arrangement of His Highness La Riluo."
"She asked your wife to go there?"
