Special Duties Department Director Lin Ting was unaware that Qiu Tu had already captured a masked man in a suit.Therefore, when a man in a suit suddenly appeared, he didn't feel any surprise at all! However, he saw that the masked man in a suit did not flee but had the audacity to strike at him first! A trace of annoyance appeared on his face instantly, so his eyes became as sharp as an eagle's, and without dodging or evading, he counterattacked with a palm strike! With a "Boom!" a loud noise erupted! As both individuals clashed palms, the air itself seemed to be violently shaking! The next second, to the shock of the onlookers, both sides seemed to be evenly matched, each taking a step back! The man in a suit was wearing a mask, making it impossible for the various forces to recognize his true identity. But Lin Ting's identity was known to everyone. A minister from the Special Service Department and one of the nine high-ranking officials of the Investigation Bureau, a standard Second-Order Cataclysmic Awakened! To face a man in a suit and only manage to fight to a draw? One must know that there were only a few Second-Order Cataclysmics in Xinjie City! Each one of them was a significant figure! And the number that might have a connection to Qiu Tu was even fewer…. So, at that moment, in the minds of all the scouts and spies, a bold idea emerged: This man in a suit... could he possibly be Jia Shu? Had he gone insane? Was he truly disregarding his status and coming to assassinate his subordinate? What on earth was he doing? Thus, in no time, various messages about this assassination attempt started being relayed quickly to those behind-the-scenes power players…. …. At the Garden Villa in the City Center Garden, in an opulently decorated ordinary lounge. Yan Chen was sitting on a plush genuine leather sofa, quietly reading a book under the lamplight. His daughter Yanyan sat at the table next to him, holding a vase and arranging a bouquet of flowers. Just when everything was incredibly peaceful and comfortable. Suddenly, hurried footsteps disrupted the quiet of the lounge. "Bureau Chief…" Ji Chen arrived at the door, knocked gently, and then called out. Yan Chen, after hearing the call, took his time to finish the last few sentences on the page before getting up. He picked up a gilded bookmark from the coffee table, placed it inside the book, set the book on the table, and then slowly stood up, hands clasped behind him, to walk outside. Yanyan, seeing this, looked up at Yan Chen with bewilderment. But Yan Chen pressed his hand down toward her and said in a deep voice, "Play by yourself for now, I will come back to join you in a bit." Having said that, he left the lounge with dignity, taking Ji Chen to the lounge across the way. Once there, Yan Chen sat down and then asked in a low voice, "Speak." Ji Chen uttered a sound of affirmation and then leaned closer to Yan Chen, speaking softly, "Just now, a message came through, saying Qiu Tu's action tonight seems to have attracted the attention of many forces." "Our people alone have discovered at least two groups of unidentified persons in our vicinity." Having said that, Ji Chen paused, "And Qiu Tu, in order to lure out the legendary enemy, drove to the secluded villas around Longshan Road after leaving the Investigation Bureau." "And indeed, someone took the bait and made a move on him." "According to reports from downstairs, the mysterious person at a distance of 200 meters took aim with a rifle and fired a shot at Qiu Tu. Qiu Tu was shot and fell to the ground on the spot." "Minister Lin Ting was provoked by the audacity of the mysterious person and charged forward to engage in combat with him." "As a result, this mysterious individual truly exhibited exceptional skills, going back and forth with Minister Lin Ting. It looked like he indeed was a Second-Order Cataclysmic..."

He did not speak nor react, just quietly contemplating…. Seeing this, Ji Chen tentatively asked, "Bureau Chief... could that mysterious person really be Minister Jia?" "Do we need to dispatch more men?" Yan Chen neither confirmed nor denied it but said in a hoarse voice, "If this assassination is arranged by Jia Shu, there must be more to it than meets the eye…" Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Besides, although Qiu Tu was shot, it's unlikely that something would easily go wrong with him." "He's as slippery as an eel. Having received advance notice, he undoubtedly has numerous aces up his sleeve." "As for sending more men…," Yan Chen's eyelids drooped, showing a touch of fatigue, "no need to send any for now." "Let them cause a stir. The more chaos they create, the more devils and demons will emerge, making some things clearer…" …. Meanwhile, as Yan Chen was making such an assessment. At the doorstep of Section Chief Kong's small villa, the residence of Madame Kong. Qiu Tu, who had just been shot and fallen to the ground, slowly got up. As he sat up, a "clang" was heard, and a bullet fell from his left chest to the ground. Upon closer inspection, his clothes did have blood on them, but there was only a small stain. His skin, including the exposed eyes and ears, seemed to be covered with a thin, semi-transparent layer of white paper. Clearly, this was the life-preserving charm he had obtained from Tang Feifei a few days ago: the Trigger Paper Figure! (Chapter 133) The effect of the Trigger Paper Figure was such that when the bearer was attacked, it would automatically be triggered, forming a protective layer over the body. This protective layer could withstand attacks from large caliber firearms and last for more than 30 seconds. The 30 seconds quickly passed, and the white paper layer covering Qiu Tu's body slowly dissipated.
