Chapter 111 - 97: Two Major Gains After the Crisis

Hearing his words, Yan Chen's gaze suddenly sharpened.

He did not express his stance immediately, but fell silent for two seconds before asking, "What unconventional measures do you wish to utilize?"

Standing upright, Qiu Tu spoke earnestly, "Including but not limited to compulsory

With these thoughts, Yan Chen slowly came to a decision.

He looked up at Qiu Tu and said indifferently, "Agreed."

"I will sign the Authorization Letter and the Special Arrest Warrant for you in a moment."

"With the Authorization Letter and Special Arrest Warrant, you can arrest mid-level officials below the Bureau Chief at will within five days, interrogate them prior to their arrests, and use torture if necessary."

"As long as you solve the case within five days, I won't mind however excessive your actions are."

At this point, he paused and took the opportunity to admonish Qiu Tu, "But Qiu Tu, I still have to remind you. You only have five days. If the murderer isn't found once five days are up, then... don't blame me for disregarding the camaraderie between us."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu snapped his legs together and saluted, "Yes, Chief!"

Seeing this, Yan Chen waved his hand towards Qiu Tu and said in a low voice, "You may leave."

"Yes, Bureau Chief." Qiu Tu replied and then turned and left Jia Shu's office.

After Qiu Tu departed, silence slowly descended in Jia Shu's office; neither Jia Shu nor Yan Chen spoke.

Yan Chen sat quietly in the walnut wood office chair, as if he were the true master of the Political Department, while Jia Shu stood to one side, expressionless....

After a long moment, Yan Chen propped himself up from the black walnut wood desk and slowly stood. He patted Jia Shu's shoulder lightly, then left without a word.

Seeing this, Jia Shu followed behind and saw Yan Chen out of the office. Only after watching the receding figures of Yan Chen and Ji Chen disappear at the end of the hallway did Jia Shu's gaze flicker, and he returned to his own office.

Back in his office, Jia Shu's complexion gradually turned from rosy to ashen, his eyes bloodshot, and his expression began to twist into something quite ferocious.

His tongue elongated as he licked his lips, eyes filled with perverted desire, "What a tempting fruit...."

"To dare walk a tightrope in front of me and the Bureau Chief, playing with the gap in information."

"Interesting, very interesting."

"I really can't wait for the fruit to ripen...."

While speaking, his breathing became noticeably heavier....

....

Meanwhile, Qiu Tu, having left Jia Shu's office, was also sorting through the achievements of the day.

Just now, due to the love-hate relationship between Yan Chen and Jia Shu, Qiu Tu had triggered three [Crisis Countdowns].

The first and third countdowns were short-term crises, and he had already dealt with them.

Only the second countdown was a bit special.

Qiu Tu clicked on his thoughts, and the Crisis Warning that had just appeared popped up before him again,

"Your immediate superior, Yan Chen, has updated new directives for you regarding the 'Yin Caimei' case, demanding you to clarify the case within five days."

"His forceful intervention is likely to agitate many people and powers."

"Clarify the case within the allotted time and ensure your safety, for the danger may just come from the shadows...."
