She deliberately lowered her voice when she said this, very softly.
But it couldn't escape that person's ears.
Su Yan turned off her phone screen, looked at Shen Muchan, and said indifferently, "So she really did do something shady with you."
Shen Muchan said with a slight sneer, "I believe you wouldn't be envious."
As they spoke, the phone once again drew an arc in the air and landed in its original owner's hand.
Su Yan looked at her quietly, her eyes indifferent.
"alright."
Shen Muchan's smile faded, and she sighed helplessly before saying, "Your attitude now is finally in line with your status and attitude."
Su Yan asked softly, "Are you trying to teach me how to be a person?"
Shen Muchan was somewhat surprised and asked, "This doesn't sound like something you would say... Could it be that her arrest has really unsettled you, and your current calmness is just a facade?"
Su Yan seemed not to have heard anything and said calmly, "She's not like you. She can't be so stupid as to actually get caught, especially by Lu Xiu."
"hehe."
Shen Muchan sneered, turned around and walked to the edge of the rooftop, looking towards the Special Affairs Bureau.
Just then, my phone vibrated again.
Unlike before, this time it wasn't a text message, but a phone call.
It was a string of unfamiliar numbers, one I had no memory of.
As a powerful individual who was only one step away from the peak of the fifth rank, Shen Muchan had an excellent memory and could naturally determine that this was not the previous number.
She remained silent for a while, but the call ended without her hanging up.
The phone continued to vibrate, creating a slight friction against her palm, just as the wind stopped, and then it emitted a clear sound.
The white cat looked at her, its eyes growing serious.
Su Yan's gaze never left her, as if she knew who was behind the phone. A slight smile of anticipation appeared on her lips.
Shen Muchan answered the phone.
The next second, her expression changed slightly.
"What should I call you... Crimson?"
……
……
Fifteen minutes ago, Special Affairs Bureau.
Lu Xiu stood in front of a window, listening to Liu Nan's explanation in silence.
In fact, he initially did not intend to pay attention to this person because this person had been Zhong Chongshan's secretary, and his identity was relatively sensitive. He did not want to have a disagreement with the latter because of this.
However, Liu Nan eventually convinced him, for a reason that consisted of only three simple words, or rather, one name—Gu Yuqiu.
As one of the few Tier 3 experts in the New Chu Special Affairs Bureau, Liu Nan was naturally assigned to the overpass today to search the scene and ambush any potential members of the Divine Will Walkers.
Driven by a certain obsession with Lin Mushi, when he saw the scene of Lu Xiu and Gu Yuqiu confronting each other, he naturally had some thoughts, which led to the conversation we are having now.
"Lin Mushi is young and has the characteristics of her age, but Gu Yuqiu is definitely not."
Liu Nan said earnestly, "I have met Gu Yuqiu several times, and she has left a deep impression on me, the most profound of which is her indifference."
Lu Xiu didn't look at him, and asked casually, "You mean that Gu Yuqiu couldn't possibly be sad because of Lin Mushi, let alone revisit the place because of seeing her."
"Yes."
Liu Nan paused for a moment, then quickly changed the subject: "However, I can be sure that Lin Mushi will definitely do the things that Gu Yuqiu won't do for her."
After he finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became very quiet.
No one spoke for a long time.
I don't know how much time passed, maybe a few minutes later, Lu Xiu laughed.
But there was no smile in his eyes, only a deep chill, just like his tone.
"The Lin Mushi you are now criticizing is a hero who is about to receive extremely high honors."
"Lin Mushi's honor was earned through battle, and has nothing to do with anything else. The reason I believe that she places Gu Yuqiu in a higher position, and that it is more important to the interests of the Special Affairs Bureau, is certainly supported by evidence."
"What is it?"
"I once used my ability on Lin Mushi because of Gu Yuqiu. It was an ability to lower her guard and open her heart. And the thoughts she showed when she was unguarded... were all concern."
"care?"
“His meticulous care for Gu Yuqiu.”
"So what you mean now?"
"I think you could pay a little more attention to Lin Mushi before you interrogate Gu Yuqiu. You might make some unexpected discoveries."
"really interesting."
Lu Xiu turned to look at Liu Nan, his face expressionless, and said, "You want me to investigate a hero from the Special Affairs Bureau?"
Liu Nan firmly stated, "Yes, I firmly believe that something will be discovered."
Lu Xiu remained expressionless, lost in deep thought.
From the very first day he took office, the idea of Gu Yuqiu had been in his mind, but he couldn't find a reason to put it into practice.
Now, Gu Yuqiu has suddenly left him with a handle, giving him an excuse, and Liu Nan happens to appear just when he is racking his brains about what excuse to use to monitor Lin Mushi.
Everything was so perfect that he felt it was somewhat unreal and subconsciously fell into deep thought.
Not long after, he made his decision.
What if reality doesn't match your expectations...?
He glanced at Liu Nan one last time and said, "I hope you won't regret it then."
……
……
Meanwhile, in the interrogation room.
Gu Yuqiu sat behind the interrogation table, her hands not handcuffed, still free, while the cup of coffee in front of her was steaming and emitting a fragrant aroma.
She looked relaxed and comfortable, her posture seemingly casual for comfort, yet there was a strange sense of order in her posture, making one feel that everything was as it should be, without any transgression.
Her eyes remained calm, exuding a serene and noble air. It was hard to imagine that she was imprisoned at this moment, and not somewhere else.
The so-called "doing whatever you want without overstepping the bounds, having a clear conscience and therefore speaking with confidence"... that's probably the feeling.
Seeing Gu Yuqiu like this, the person sitting opposite her wasn't angry at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "This coffee is my favorite flavor. Don't you want to try some?"
Gu Yuqiu shook her head and said, "Today I prefer milk tea a little more."
"I see~"
The person sitting opposite him couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him. After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about I make you a mocha?"
Gu Yuqiu raised an eyebrow slightly, asking in confusion, "Why can't we just have a cup of milk tea?"
The man answered frankly, "Because I prefer coffee..."
"and many more!"
After the two had been silent since they started talking, the man standing next to them finally couldn't hold back any longer. He looked at his female colleague sitting in the interrogation seat and said helplessly, "Can't you be a little more serious about this?"
"What do you mean by that? We know her, why are you starting to doubt her?"
The woman glared at him, her tone very serious, with not a trace of her previous gentleness.
Yes, the man and woman sitting in the interrogation room at this moment had met Gu Yuqiu and Lin Mushi twice before, and their impression of them was extremely deep.
"I remember you too."
Gu Yuqiu found it interesting and chuckled, saying, "Your name is Seven Pairs... and you're also called One Cup?"
The woman looked away, her expression immediately softening, and she smiled and hummed in agreement.
"I don't like playing mahjong, so let's not mention that nickname."
The man sighed, pulled out a chair and sat down, saying, "Besides, I can't exactly call you Nine Lotus Lantern, can I? If I did, I'd definitely get scolded."
After saying this, the two colleagues, who had been working together for many years, exchanged a knowing glance and then told Gu Yuqiu their names.
"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Song Mingyu."
"Liu Zhan".
Gu Yuqiu nodded, preparing to say her name.
Song Mingyu, whose nickname used to be Seven Pairs, quickly interrupted her and said, "After the Fool's Ship incident that day, A-Zhan and I went to ask for your name, and we've always remembered it."
Gu Yuqiu thought to herself that with her good looks, there was no way she could keep a low profile, and asked softly, "Are you the ones in charge of interrogating me?"
Liu Zhan sighed again.
"of course not."
Song Mingyu smiled and said, "The person in charge of talking to you is Director Lu. However, A-Zhan has pretty good interpersonal relationships. I wanted to come and chat with you, so I asked him to say a few words to you."
Gu Yuqiu thought to herself, "You two really are a couple."
Liu Zhan took over the conversation and explained, "Director Lu is dealing with some things and can't come right away. Just wait a bit."
Song Mingyu said, "It's really nothing. You're definitely fine. It's just that the situation is so tense right now that the director has to handle it carefully."
Gu Yuqiu suddenly asked, "Are these your opinions?"
"No."
Liu Zhan gave her a deep look and said seriously, "That's the opinion of the vast majority of people."
In the battle at White Horse Lake, the Fool's Ship fell from nothingness. Under the bright moonlight, Gu Yuqiu stood at the bow of the ship, her hands behind her back.
The scene was witnessed by many people, all of whom were the backbone of the New Chu Special Affairs Bureau, with bright futures and hopes.
After Crimson launched a sudden and reckless attack, which was ultimately resolved by Gu Yuqiu and Lin Mushi, these people naturally had a deeper impression of them, and many discussions naturally arose.
