Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 595 - 350: Larilo’s Escape! (10,000 words for Monthly Ticket!)_2

And at this moment, while the senior officials were locked in verbal combat against Qiu Tu, Tang Feifei looked at him with a complex expression.

She never expected that at this most critical time, it would be Qiu Tu who stood up.

Yet... she didn’t feel happy; she only felt a bellyful of worries and concerns.

Thinking this, she hesitated for a moment before speaking in a cold voice, "All right, stop arguing."

"Since you all have decided not to go, then leave first. Let me have a word alone with Minister Qiu."

"I have some questions I want to ask him."

Upon hearing Tang Feifei’s words, the conference room immediately fell silent.

After a moment, the several high-ranking officials exchanged glances and then tactfully stood up one after another and left the room.

Since Qiu Tu had volunteered to take on the mission, no matter the outcome, the Dare-to-Die Team’s affair would have nothing to do with them.

If Qiu Tu went, they would be completely carefree.

If Qiu Tu didn’t go, it was because Tang Feifei had persuaded him. Tang Feifei herself would continue to arrange for others, just don’t come looking for them.

At such life-and-death moments, everyone only chooses what is most beneficial to themselves...

This is human nature.

Not long after, once the high-ranking officials had all left the room,

Tang Feifei also shooed Su Xiaowan out.

Thus, in the spacious conference room, only Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei remained.

For a time, the conference room became silent...

The weather in Xinjie City was good today, and it was noon. The sunlight quietly filtered into the conference room, casting its glow on Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei.

It draped them in a golden veil.

After a long silence, Tang Feifei slowly began to speak.

But she didn’t talk about the Dare-to-Die Team; instead, she chatted casually about Qiu Tu being late today.

"You... where were you last night and this morning?"

Qiu Tu said, "Where else could I be? At my own home."

Hearing Qiu Tu’s answer, Tang Feifei shook her head and said coldly, "You’re lying."

She slowly analyzed, "If you were at home, contact wouldn’t have been impossible."

"Knowing that such an urgent ’Red Medicine’ meeting was to be held, your secretary, your subordinates, they surely would have woken you up."

"And when they didn’t wake you,"

"It’s very likely that you stealthily hid yourself, or you went to a place where you couldn’t be disturbed... perhaps, the Boundless Heart Sea?"

When Tang Feifei laid out her analysis step by step, Qiu Tu’s heart skipped a beat.

Could it be... the fact that he had become the Domain Master was about to be exposed so soon?

With this thought in mind, Qiu Tu hastily set his mind whirring, carefully considering what intel Tang Feifei might have and how many clues she had pieced together.

After a moment... he had a guess: Tang Feifei knew nothing, it must simply be a bluff, or... they had an information gap. They were not even talking about the same thing!

After all, unless someone knew all of his arrangements and plans, an ordinary person would not possibly connect him to "Commanding Rank-4 Creatures" or "possessing the aura of Zhao Ji."

With this thought, Qiu Tu felt more certain as he said, "I indeed secretly entered the Boundless Heart Sea these past two days."

"Then there, I investigated how to become a Regional Controller."

"Yesterday, you all left. But I didn’t leave; instead, I continued to explore in the primeval jungle."

As expected, once Qiu Tu confessed, Tang Feifei did not keep probing Qiu Tu but changed the subject, saying, "So... precisely because you were in the Boundless Heart Sea yesterday. You should know just how dangerous this mission is."

"...So, this mission you..."

She didn’t finish her sentence and was cut off by Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu looked at her, said earnestly, "I indeed know how dangerous this mission is."

"But then... do you or the others have any other choices?"

Pausing there, Qiu Tu continued, "City Hall has the most senior officials, but they are mostly in administrative positions, 99% unlikely to be the captain of the Dare-to-Die Team."

"The military’s senior officials are the fewest, just a couple of minor characters. And they have a conflict with Colonel Lin. They are also highly unlikely to become the captain of the Dare-to-Die Team."

"So, it’s just us, the Investigation Bureau, only I... am capable of leading the team into the Boundless Heart Sea for an inquiry."

At this point, Qiu Tu added, "And... I also need this opportunity. I am too eager to progress."

Saying that, Qiu Tu recounted in detail how Huang Shangzong had boasted that he wouldn’t let him advance within five years.

To be honest, before this, Tang Feifei had some doubts about why Qiu Tu wanted to join the Dare-to-Die Team. She wondered if Qiu Tu knew some secret, or knew that the Boundless Heart Sea was very safe right now.

But now, having heard Qiu Tu’s explanation, she had no more doubts in her heart—indeed, he was forced into this.

To not be promoted for five years...

If she were Qiu Tu, she might also choose to take a risk in desperation!

With this in mind and known for her decisive actions, Tang Feifei no longer continued to persuade.

She looked at Qiu Tu, then said coldly, "I will explain your situation to Commissioner Jiang and Colonel Lin in a bit."

"In due time, we will jointly submit a recommendation for you to become the Deputy Director of the Investigation Bureau and send the document directly to the state."

She decisively stated, "Don’t worry. Only after we receive Chairman Huang’s confirmed approval will we let you set out!"

Hearing Tang Feifei’s words and looking at this cheetah-like woman in front of him, bold and resolute, Qiu Tu smiled and nodded...

Leaving the conference room, Qiu Tu returned to his office with Tan Huimin.

But what he didn’t know was that after he left, Tang Feifei sat in the hall of high officials for a long while.
