especially since.... qiu tu's previous position was the deputy chief of the political department interrogation section.as the ace department of the investigation bureau, the status of the political department is really too special. for a deputy chief of the political department to be transferred to other departments as a chief, although it can be considered a promotion, it.... can also be seen as a veiled demotion. after all, although this career trajectory means a higher rank, the opportunities for achievement as well as the influence over the investigation bureau and xinjie city would be greatly diminished. so.... being moved to those clean government offices might not necessarily be a good thing for the now thriving qiu tu. thinking this way, some high-level officials couldn't help but ponder. 'could it be.... that they are planning to move other department chiefs to those less popular departments, to clear the way for qiu tu's ascent?' no sooner had this thought arisen than it was dismissed by the high-level officials. after all.... such an arrangement would be too conspicuous. even if the investigation bureau has always been at the whim of yan chen, able to arrange personnel at will, such an unusual appointment would still attract a lot of criticism. even if there is no immediate impact on yan chen, should anything happen in the future, it would be ammunition to criticize him. moreover, all present were old colleagues who had worked with yan chen for one year or even many years, and had some understanding of yan chen's cunning and shrewdness. they knew... he would not play such an ordinary hand. stay tuned with empire with these thoughts, some high-level officials suddenly found themselves unable to fathom what exactly yan chen was up to. therefore, they simply stopped overthinking and patiently waited for yan chen's decision.... but at this moment, yan chen did not seem to be in any hurry. after secretary bai had patiently explained the "yin caimei case," he looked around at everyone present, setting a tone for the "yin caimei case." "this case should be the biggest one handled by the xinjie city investigation bureau since its establishment." "it's also one of the most serious cases in the planning area in recent years." his face, aged and expressionless, revealed no mood, "fortunately... the case was discovered in time and handled promptly, avoiding a major disaster." "otherwise, if it had really blown up, we might all have been held accountable by the sanctuary." "so, we must take a serious lesson from this case, striving to preempt similar cases in the future...." "not waiting until something actually happens, then regretting it." as he spoke, yan chen couldn't help but recall his entire emotional journey that afternoon.... actually.... when he learned that "qin heng" had confessed and the security department had cracked the case completely, yan chen was still somewhat annoyed. after all, the qin family was too important for him at the moment. with the backing of the qin family, his power could reach into city hall and various industries throughout xinjie city, and he could also draw on the qin family's connections to gather the forces large and small within xinjie city by exploiting his proximity to power. sёarᴄh the nôᴠefire.ηet website on google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. just give him a year or two to digest and establish the entire network of relationships and power, and then he would become the most influential person in xinjie city, without parallel. the problem was that at this juncture, the qin family had been ruined by people from inside his own investigation bureau! to be honest, these past few days, yan chen had been filled with the urge to tear qiu tu and jia shu to pieces! but.... once the sanctuary sent down the case report to yan chen, his thoughts immediately made a 180-degree turn. what caused such a swift change in attitude was the true identity of qin heng! the case was so sensitive that neither the public information nor the criticism or praise from the sanctuary touched on anything related to the "evil god." on top of that, all the evidence and information related to the "evil god" in the case were classified, so before the case was concluded, yan chen was unaware of the specifics. so when he used his authority to look through the files and classified information, he was shocked to discover: qin heng was a spy for united front, and the qin family was propped up by them, which turned out to be the smallest problem with the case! the bigger issue was: old master qin had contacted the evil god more than twenty years ago and, in exchange for ushering in the evil god's arrival, had possessed the bodies of his two sons, becoming the new qin heng.... truth be told, yan chen had suspected that the qin family was somehow entangled with the evil god, but he really did not expect it to be so deep, that old master qin had played such a huge gambit. therefore, at that moment, yan chen's attitude toward qiu tu really did make a 180-degree turn. because he knew this case would become a landmark one in the planning area in recent years, cited countless times in the future. thus, qiu tu must be rewarded, and he must be promoted, and.... it can't be to a clean government office. only in this way could he demonstrate his firm stance.... thinking this, yan chen's thoughts gradually returned. as an old politician with rich experience in meetings, thinking outwardly while speaking bureaucratic jargon was not a difficult operation for yan chen. so, when he had finished reminiscing, his summary and assessment were just coming to an end. he took a sip of water, then leaned back in his chair, his gaze neither joyful nor sad as he looked at the high-level officials present, then he took the initiative to start today's main agenda, "we've finished discussing the 'yin caimei case.'" "i believe everyone understands the importance of this case for the xinjie city investigation bureau!" "therefore, i think that those who performed exceptionally in this case should be properly adjusted in their work, taking on more responsibilities."
