Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the detective replied respectfully, "The director is waiting for you upstairs."
Qiu Tu looked up at the Investigation Department building.
Vaguely, he seemed to see a pair of deep eyes watching him.
He smiled.
This was not bad news.
Since Jia Shu was still in the Investigation Department building, it meant the Political Department had not officially intervened in the matter yet. That gave the Security Department ample time to erase the traces.
It also meant he, A Tai, and Eagle were safer.
With that in mind, Qiu Tu calculated the timing and roughly formed a guess.
Old Alley Street, the Qin Family, and City Central Garden formed almost exactly a triangle.
The Investigation Department building stood in the middle of that triangle.
So by the time Qiu Tu arrived at the Investigation Department, Qin Heng should still have been on his way back and had not yet reached the Qin Family.
Before understanding the full sequence of events and their severity, Qin Heng would not ask the Investigation Department for help.
That was why Qiu Tu had arrived at the Investigation Department building first while Jia Shu had yet to leave.
Thinking further, Qiu Tu made another deduction: So... the moment Jia Shu learned something had happened to the Qin Family, he had called and pinned him down?
Qiu Tu's eyes flickered.
Heh. Now that was a true expert. A seemingly effortless move, yet it had played a crucial role and nearly disrupted his plans.
After all, there was a world of difference between carrying out a plan personally and directing it remotely.
If Qiu Tu had not already made contact with the Security Department and talked them into cleaning up after him; if he had not already gained control over Fourth Master Qin's wife
