Let them offer their loyalty!

So, she completely disregarded her uncle's warning and chose to openly show her interest in Qiu Tu with flirtatious behavior. Today, she even designed her outfit to reveal her buttons, showcasing her abilities, to attract Qiu Tu!

To put it bluntly, everything she did was for the promise from Qiu Tu, wasn't it?

Thinking like this, she didn't hold back any courtesy and directly accepted, her charming smile beaming as she said, "Then I should thank the minister in advance~~"

After speaking, she winked at Qiu Tu, "Minister~ The door of my house is always open for you~~"

When Qiu Tu heard this, he smiled and nodded, "Sure. My dear brother will come to visit when he's free."

After their conversation ended, Guan Xiao buttoned up the rest of her intact buttons, leaving only the last burst one. She raised her hand, pulled out a hair clip from her hair, and casually pinned it to the front of her uniform.

A hair clip paired with the uniform, you have to admit, had a pure yet desirable contrast.

After all was done, she blew Qiu Tu a kiss, then turned and got ready to leave, "Then I'll take my leave first, Minister~"

However, as she turned her body, she didn't forget to jest, "I hope my quick departure won't make Secretary Tan misinterpret the use of your time."

Hearing Guan Xiao's flirtatious comment that could make a car start, Qiu Tu also smiled.

Then he said, "Wait a moment."

Hearing his words, Guan Xiao stopped in her tracks.

Qiu Tu stood up and pressed a few buttons on the recorder.

After a moment, he took out a videotape from inside it and casually handed it to Guan Xiao.

As Guan Xiao dazedly took the videotape, Qiu Tu said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "When you're using a bluffing tactic, it's best to actually have what you claim to have."

"This will allow you to have an ace up your sleeve for a counterattack when situations go out of control."

As he spoke, Qiu Tu pointed at the recorder again, smiling, "You have to do your homework well in advance."

"I never stint on time, money, or energy. Because I know ordinary people can make mistakes, but workers on a secret frontline like us can't afford to..."

While listening to Qiu Tu's words, holding the videotape in her hand, Guan Xiao stood there stunned...

...

Meanwhile.

Outside the secret interrogation room in City Hall.

The middle-aged man, face ashen, snapped at the team member who had brought the equipment, "Not a Cataclysmic?!"

"How could he not be a Cataclysmic?"

"Moreover... the blood sample doesn't match the killer's either?"

"How is this possible!"

"How the hell do we write this report?!"

Hearing the team leader's words, the team member was also trembling with nervousness.

He whispered, "Leader, have we... been deceived? Investigated the wrong direction?"

"I noticed that Eagle didn't show the slightest sign of panic the whole time, and he seemed to think that we were trying to frame Qiu Tu."

"Moreover..." he paused, "when I was examining him, I paid attention and found no gunshot wounds anywhere on his body. Not even a trace."

Hearing the team member's words, the middle-aged man appeared a bit distraught.

He mumbled, "Impossible... The information channel couldn't have been wrong."

"That blood sample was collected by Ji Chen and then handed to Zheng Tao."

"Not long ago, Zheng Tao contacted me through the Security Department claiming he had information exposing Qiu Tu."

"He then shared his and Ji Chen's hypothesis about the Wu Zhi case and revealed the hiding place of the blood sample."

"After that, we followed the clues and reasoning he provided, and found that Eagle had a very high suspicion."

"But why! Now none of the evidence is matching up, why?!"
