Chapter 188 Straightforward Confrontation! (10,000-word plea for Monthly Tickets!)

Words : 1960 Updated : Sep 25th, 2025

Take a look at Chapter 233 of "Let them offer their loyalty!": ```Seeing Qiu Tu guess who was trying to steal the credit, Wang Dawei's eyes revealed... See what happens next!

```Seeing Qiu Tu guess who was trying to steal the credit, Wang Dawei's eyes revealed a trace of surprise, before he hastily nodded in agreement. After nodding, he cautiously said, "Commander. Actually, after this morning's promotion orders came down, Deputy Director Zheng brought people over to the Guard Room." "He used his position as the Deputy Division Chief of the Public Security Bureau as justification to try to take away the prisoner." "At the time, I actually didn't want to agree. After all... the rule of the Political Department is whoever captures the person, gets to interrogate them." "This person was captured by you, and it should rightfully be you who deals with it." "But he claimed that as the new Deputy Division Chief taking over Director Qin's duties, he also received the jurisdiction of Deputy Director Qin." "And Deputy Director Qin's jurisdiction, apart from a few Public Security Offices, the most important was the '8.19 Pharmacy Robbery Case'." "So, he had the authority to take over and investigate this case." Wang Dawei said with disdain, "Although he spoke of justice, we all know, he was just here to claim the credit!" "The pharmacy robbery case is such a big case with substantial credit due. You captured the suspects, and the case was mostly cracked." "Yet he suddenly barges in to conduct a surprise interrogation, which is absolutely disgraceful." Wang Dawei paused, then added jokingly, "But... since he indeed has the authority, and also... is our superior." "We simply didn't dare to refuse, so we had to open the door for him and hand over the prisoner." Wang Dawei looked at Qiu Tu with an embarrassed expression, "Commander, we were compelled to do this, please don't blame us." People in the workplace are often powerless to act independently. Qiu Tu could empathize with that feeling, so he firmly patted Wang Dawei on the shoulder twice and said, "Rest assured, you are not at fault in this matter." He continued, "In fact, I should thank you for providing us with such important intelligence." After finishing, he looked Wang Dawei up and down, then said, "I think you're quite capable, and I'll arrange to have you transferred to my side when I have the time." Wang Dawei's reason for revealing the news to Qiu Tu was precisely to align himself with Qiu Tu. Now, having received the promise, his face lit up with surprise. He quickly saluted Qiu Tu excitedly, "Thank you, Commander!" Seeing this, Qiu Tu once again smiled and patted his shoulder. Then he turned to his confidant subordinates and said, "Well, it seems our newly appointed Deputy Division Chief is very interested in our case." "Let's go see his interrogation together." After saying this, Qiu Tu took the lead towards the Interrogation Room. Even the least familiar among Qiu Tu's followers, Ding Xiaoqi, showed a loyalty score as high as 70 points. So, even knowing that they would have to confront their former/current boss, they unhesitatingly followed behind Qiu Tu, marching majestically towards the Interrogation Section. Witnessing this scene, Wang Dawei was filled with envy: Who wouldn't want to be part of a cohesive group in these troubled times? Not to mention him, but many throughout the Investigation Bureau actually wished to join Qiu Tu's little group. It was just that they had no opportunity to do so... While Wang Dawei was envying them, Qiu Tu and his confidants arrived at the Interrogation Section. On the way, Liu Fuping seized the opportunity to quietly come over to Qiu Tu and said in a low voice, "Zheng Tao is not a simple character." "If it wasn't sanctioned from above, he wouldn't be so brazen in stealing your credit." Qiu Tu smiled at this and said, "Definitely." He pointed to the ceiling, "You don't even need to think about it, it must be the instructions or hints of that person." "His move is indeed a good one." "After all, the '8.19 Pharmacy Robbery Case' is a major case. If I alone lead the team to solve the case, then both publicly and privately, he would have to commend me at least." "But now by parachuting Zheng Tao in, taking over the case, and conducting an interrogation to obtain the other half of the testimony, the credit for the case gets entirely split." "Moreover, Zheng Tao is the Deputy Division Chief of the Public Security Bureau, ranked higher than me. Later on, they could easily manipulate the narrative to say it was Zheng Tao who led us in solving this case." "By then, the credit for this case will no longer belong to us." Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Fuping nodded in agreement with a serious expression, "That's exactly right." "So... what should we do?" Qiu Tu smiled, "What to do? Nothing." Sensing Liu Fuping's puzzled gaze, Qiu Tu reminded her, "The entire premise of Yan Chen's plan is... that Zheng Tao really can intervene in this case and indeed can obtain something from the interrogation." With a mysterious smile, Qiu Tu added, "But... can he really get something out of it?" Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Liu Fuping looked surprised, clearly not understanding where Qiu Tu's confidence came from. She considered herself a favorite student of Jia Shu, whereas Zheng Tao was Jia Shu's direct disciple. With interrogation skills taught by Jia Shu, Zheng Tao was known as the strongest interrogator in the Interrogation Section. No prisoner examined by him had ever managed not to spill the beans. Was Qiu Tu really confident that Jia Wei could withstand Zheng Tao's interrogation? Furthermore... if Jia Wei could indeed withstand Zheng Tao's interrogation, wouldn't his own group be even less able to get anything out of Jia Wei? ``` With this question in mind, Liu Fuping followed Qiu Tu, leading a formidable procession of troops to the Interrogation Section. Upon arriving at the Interrogation Section, a brief inquiry made everyone aware of the interrogation room Zheng Tao had used that day. Thus, Qiu Tu once again led all his confidants straight to that particular interrogation room. At this moment, the agents from the Interrogation Section and other departments of the Political Department, sensing something amiss from Qiu Tu's "vengeance-seeking" momentum, realized that a significant scoop was brewing. Consequently, they called upon friends and colleagues to follow, craning their necks in an attempt to witness a potential clash. So by the time Qiu Tu arrived at the door of the interrogation room, he was already followed by a dense crowd. This sight startled Zheng Tao's few confidants standing guard outside into shivering, nearly drawing their guns. It was Cao Dabiao's sharp eyes; he lunged forward and delivered a resounding slap! "Have you lost your minds!" "Drawing guns against officers inside the Political Department!" "Are you trying to revolt!" Hearing Cao Dabiao's thunderous reprimand, Zheng Tao's confidants snapped out of it, turned ashen, and hurried to salute Qiu Tu, "Chief!" Qiu Tu snorted coldly, his face expressionless as he walked past them. They intended to step forward and obstruct him, trying to buy Zheng Tao some time. But by then, Chen Feng, Ding Xiaoliu, Zhu Huoyan, Li Xian, and other confidants of Qiu Tu had already stepped forward, pushing them to the sides. In this manner, Qiu Tu led his large entourage unimpeded into Zheng Tao's interrogation room! Kicking open the door, the sight that met Qiu Tu's eyes was that of Jia Wei, bound to the interrogation table, who was furiously cursing Zheng Tao's ancestors. From Zheng Tao's livid face, Jia Wei appeared to have been cursing him for more than just a minute or two, likely nonstop since being dragged into the interrogation room. Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire At that moment, Zheng Tao was also startled by the loud crash of the door slamming against the wall. He slowly turned around, his face grim as he looked toward the door. On seeing that it was Qiu Tu standing at the doorway with his men, his already dark expression grew even colder. He shouted sternly, "Chief Qiu! May I ask why you are barging into my interrogation room!" Qiu Tu, by now bold enough to even strike Yan Chen, was certainly not afraid of Zheng Tao. Back when he was under Zheng Tao, he had never feared him. Now that there was no longer a superior-subordinate relationship, he feared him even less. So he retorted uncompromisingly, "Director Zheng, that's a question I should be asking you! Without my permission and without the permission of the investigation team, you interrogated a suspect we had worked hard to capture. Don't you think you owe us an explanation!" Zheng Tao, daring to act in such a manner, must have had his defense planned in advance, and he solemnly stated, "I am now officially the Deputy Division Chief of the Public Security Bureau." "The '8.19 Pharmacy Robbery Case' is my primary responsibility! What issue lies in my interrogating a criminal to advance the case progress?" Meanwhile, as Qiu Tu and Zheng Tao argued back and forth, the onlooking agents outside were almost clear on the sequence of events. They exchanged glances, sensing the aroma of a "bombshell" scoop. Anyone in the Political Department was the creme de la creme of the Investigation Bureau, accustomed to all sorts of trickery. So even though Zheng Tao's words were righteous sounding, they all knew he had overstepped his bounds and was trying to steal the credit. And Qiu Tu, notorious for being a tough nut to crack within the Investigation Bureau, would certainly not hand over his glory to someone else. Between the two, one was a newly promoted Deputy Division Chief with the vague support of higher-ups behind him.

The other was the most rapidly promoted person in the Investigation Bureau in recent months. Though he had recently fallen out with the higher-ups, it seemed he had another card up his sleeve. Hence, when it came down to it, neither would back down in this confrontation! 'This will be quite a show,' they thought. And while these agents were lost in contemplation, Qiu Tu indeed made no concessions. He bluntly stated, "Fine. Since Director Zheng wants to talk about rules, then let me ask him using these same rules!" "Haven't you already left the Political Department and taken up the position of Deputy Division Chief of the Public Security Bureau?" "Isn't the '8.19 Pharmacy Robbery Case' an investigation that the Public Security Bureau requested assistance with from the Political Department?" "According to the rules for 'assistance in investigations,' shouldn't I, the officer from the Political Department who was requested for the investigation, be the one in full charge of the case?" Qiu Tu paused slightly, "Even if we step back ten thousand steps. If your Public Security Bureau now feels confident enough to investigate on its own." "Shouldn't there be a handover with me before you start the investigation?!" "Surreptitiously taking away the suspect for private interrogation, what's the meaning of this!" At this point, Qiu Tu's gaze turned dark, "Such behavior even makes me suspect that you... might be in cahoots with the criminals." ------ 3 chapters, 10k words, haha. First 2 chapters, 7k words.
