After having his secretary carry the documents out of Qiu Tu's office, Cai Peiyuan turned back with a complicated look at Qiu Tu, who was studying the "Inspection Section" report, and whispered to Zhang Jian, "Minister Zhang... is there something wrong with Qiu Tu?"
Zhang Jian glanced at him and then said, "I need the intelligence section."
"The interrogation lesson is for you."
Cai Peiyuan: ......
......
10 minute later.
Yan Chen's office.
After learning that Qiu Tu had prepared various materials and documents well in advance.
Yan Chen took a deep breath.
He slowly closed his eyes, as if he had begun to accept his defeat.
After leaning back in his chair quietly for two minutes, Yan Chen said wearily, "Have Shi Youxin adjust Qiu Tu's work, move him from deputy director of the political department to deputy director of the administrative department."
"Yes," his new secretary replied, then went out to make the arrangements.
Yan Chen's series of attacks were so rapid and fierce that they almost overwhelmed the entire investigation department.
Unaware of the true situation, they could only analyze the current situation on the field from the surface:
After Director Yan returned from his sick leave, he discovered that Qiu Tu, in collusion with Director Tang, had usurped the power of the Investigation Bureau and was arbitrarily installing his cronies.
So, in a fit of anger, he took revenge on Qiu Tu.
First, all of Qiu Tu's cronies were suspended from their posts, and then Qiu Tu's work was reassigned. Even so, Director Yan was still furious. So, in the end, he directly reassigned Qiu Tu to the Lengshui branch of the government!
"Qiu Tu is finished..."
The news spread almost instantly throughout the Investigation Department.
For a moment, many agents felt a little sad.
After all, Qiu Tu was a legend in their hearts.
In just a few months, he achieved a remarkable leap, becoming a figure that most people could only look up to.
Many young detectives idolize Qiu Tu and hope to one day achieve the same success as him.
But, unexpectedly... in just a few short months, the blazing fire and dazzling prosperity, all its glory, ultimately had to fall into ruin...
This world, in the end, still belongs to those with noble births, powerful backgrounds, and those who are born to be superior...
.......
Meanwhile, the situation at the New Territories City Detective Agency was undergoing dramatic changes.
Shelter, 16th floor of the Exploration Department. Personnel Department Meeting Room 1.
The closed-door meeting, which lasted for more than an hour, finally came to an end.
Yue Zaitian raised his hand with a grim expression and a complicated look in his eyes.
At this moment, Yang Zaiwen, the head of the Cadre Department, quickly announced the votes: "Agree to appoint Qiu Tu as the head of the Political Department of the New Territories City Investigation Department, five votes."
According to regulations, Qiu Tu will become the next Special Branch Secretary of the New Territories City Exploration Department.
With the appointment document written and several people signing it, the appointment officially took effect.
Yue Zaitian glanced at the people present with a complicated expression, feeling somewhat puzzled.
Among the deputy ministers of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhen Lie was from the "Iron-Blooded Faction," Zhou Jingfu was from the "Fengtian Clique," and Meng Sanzhai was from the "Reform Faction."
According to the information Yan Chen gave, none of these three people, except for Zhou Jingfu, should have any connection with Qiu Tu.
Thinking this, he couldn't help but look at Ouyang Heng sitting next to him. Ouyang Heng was from the "Liberal and Democratic faction" and had nothing to do with Qiu Tu.
But why... do all four of them support Qiu Tu?
Moreover, among these four people, Zhou Jingfu from the "Fengtian Clique" was the most laid-back. Apart from expressing his support for Qiu Tu, he didn't say much at all.
On the contrary, the other three people really stepped up when something happened!
To be honest, for some reason, Yue Zaitian even suspected that they weren't actually there to support Qiu Tu, but rather to undermine him!
What the hell is going on?!
Thinking this, Yue Zaitian took a deep breath and suppressed the frustration of things getting out of control.
Knowing that the matter had not been handled well, he took out his communicator and sent a text message to Huang Shangzong and Yan Chen respectively.
"Chiu Tu was elected minister."
After that, he took another deep breath, put the communicator away, and continued voting on several other personnel appointments.
1 minute later.
New Territories City Exploration Department, Director's Office.
Yan Chen stared at the text on the communicator screen, his aged face contorted with extreme ugliness.
The communicator was gripped so tightly he rattled loudly, the sound particularly jarring in the empty office, as if it were about to explode at any moment...
------
Two chapters, 10,000 words each. Requesting monthly votes! Next chapter from midnight to 1 AM.
Chapter 293 Yan Chen's Defenses Are Broken (10,000 words, please vote!)
'He actually succeeded...!'
Although Yan Chen had some premonitions from the moment she learned that Qiu Tu was plotting to become the Minister of the Political Department.
But when it all came true, he still found it hard to believe.
The weather in the New Territories is nice today, but because the curtains in the office are drawn, the light can only struggle through the gaps in the curtains to give the empty office a little bit of light.
Sitting in this private and independent territory, Yan Chen leaned against the mahogany chair, completely hidden in the darkness.
He closed his eyes, tilted his head back, and quietly pondered in the dim light.
'Something's not right, something's not right...'
His mind raced as he processed everything that had happened recently.
'Qiu Tu's promotion was too fast...'
It's like there's a hand controlling everything...
Yan Chen reminisced about the year she had known Qiu Tu.
He felt that although Qiu Tu was somewhat shrewd at the beginning, it could only be described as cleverness; he was essentially honest and simple.
But... since a few months ago, Qiu Tu seems to have become a completely different person, entirely unlike before.
Because of his preconceived notions, he still regarded Qiu Tu as the young man from the bottom of the disaster zone.
Now, setting aside all initial impressions, Yan Chen analyzes Qiu Tu again. To her surprise, she discovers that in just a few months, Qiu Tu has completely deceived various factions in the New Territories.
He mastered all sorts of political tactics, from forming alliances to using others to his advantage, and employing leverage to his advantage.
More importantly, he seemed to have absolutely no political principles; in order to get a promotion, he actually got involved with Tang Feifei and slept with her...
Such methods and such ruthlessness are absolutely not something a lowly person could do.
And then, recalling the starting point of all these changes... the day Lariro descended, the day he initiated the "Spirit and Flesh Gathering Ritual"...
Yan Chen slowly opened his eyes, his cloudy gaze shifting constantly...
Memories surged.
Yan Chen remembered that everything was going very smoothly that day.
His ritual began, and Larilu's consciousness descended, merging with the clone of his daughter, Yan Yan...
Suddenly, the sky changed color, and the ceremony was disrupted.
In that moment of daze, Yan Chen's spiritual sense was automatically triggered, and he seemed to see the corresponding area between the New Territories City and the Boundless Heart Sea, with strong winds, black clouds swirling and overlapping, forming a violent vortex!
Immediately afterwards, a roar like that of an ancient behemoth echoed from the swirling storm.
With that roar, bolts of lightning struck down from the heavens, tearing through the sky and shattering the storm!
At that moment, the hallucination vanished, leaving only the image of lightning dancing wildly across the sky like silver snakes in Yan Chen's retina...
After this incident, Yan Chen never told anyone about it.
He always felt as if he had unintentionally triggered something, and he remained uneasy.
However, he had been keeping an eye on the New Territories and the Boundless Heart Sea during this time, but he still hadn't noticed any changes.
He initially suspected that his intelligence system was inadequate, so he extorted money from Chairman Tian and upgraded the political department's surveillance and eavesdropping system.
As a result, nothing was found....
Now, he suddenly had a realization: Could it be that... the celestial anomaly that day was actually a manifestation of Qiu Tu's fate?
And because it's dark under the lamp, I haven't realized this at all?
Thinking of this, Yan Chen's wrinkled face tightened, somewhat puzzled.
But... what exactly is the connection between Qiu Tu's changes and this celestial upheaval?
Could it be that some high-level evil gods discovered their own ritual and then took the opportunity to seize Qiu Tu's physical body through some means?
Or perhaps, that cataclysmic event awakened some kind of catastrophic power in Qiu Tu, causing him to advance by leaps and bounds?
Thinking of this, Yan Chen's aged hand slowly clenched.
If that's the case, then he feels that many recent events might have a new explanation...
For example... he still doesn't understand who was plotting against him before.
Now it seems that this must be... Qiu Tu after the "change".
After all, only this possibility can explain why Tang Feifei, Liu Xiongyuan, and those other people who are not good at scheming and trickery were able to calculate him so accurately.
Not only did it cause his plan to devour Larilu and advance to the fourth-tier Cataclysm to fail completely, but it also made everything he did benefit Liu Xiong Yuan, Ye Ming Feng, Dai Yu Kang, and others.
The more Yan Chen thought about it, the angrier she became.
If Qiu Tu were standing in front of him right now, he'd probably slap him to death! He'd teach Qiu Tu the consequences of angering a detective!
However, upon thinking of this, Yan Chen suddenly realized that Qiu Tu was already the Minister of the Political Department.
Although the appointment has not yet been finalized, since Yue Zaitian sent a text message indicating failure, it must be beyond repair.
Therefore... he couldn't hurt Qiu Tu at all.
In fact, let alone hurting Qiu Tu, he now wants to treat Qiu Tu in a more equal manner.
After all, the Political Secretary is one of the nine top officials in the Investigation Bureau. He can participate in the Bureau's high-level meetings and has voting rights on various important matters.
More importantly... the Political Department is extremely important.
The Political Department is a secret police force, holding all the spies of the Investigation Bureau in its hands, controlling the Investigation Bureau's oversight of various departments, and more importantly... also controlling the Investigation Bureau's intelligence network!
To be honest, even as the Director of the Investigation Department, he couldn't control the New Territories without the Special Branch.
'I'm being choked...'
After silently sighing to himself, Yan Chen couldn't help but think again about the people planted by Tang Feifei and the Five Elders in the Investigation Bureau, and felt even more irritated.
He felt that the entire New Territories City Detective Agency was gradually losing control.
More importantly, he now felt a sense of powerlessness. It was as if he could no longer control the situation as he used to.
Thinking of this, Yan Chen couldn't help but press his temples, and then remained silent for a while.
A few minutes later, as if he had made up his mind, he silently considered his options...
Since everything is already beyond repair, it's best not to do anything further.
Let's discuss everything once Huang Shangzong arrives in Dongye Prefecture.
Thinking this, Yan Chen slowly closed her eyes...
