Chapter 259: Qiu Tu: You Think You Have More People Than Me? (10,000 Words for Monthly Ticket!)_3
At that moment, Cao Dabiao came running out of the villa, holding a communicator that was still in the middle of a call, and handed it over to Qiu Tu.
While handing the device to Qiu Tu, Cao Dabiao also took the opportunity to suck up, "It's all thanks to the commander's strategic planning, having calculated everything ahead of time."
Qiu Tu gave him a glance and accepted the communicator with a smile.
From the communicator, the sound of Qin Shuman commanding troop deployments could be faintly heard.
"Where are you now? How much longer until you reach Longshan Road?"
"I'm not here to listen to your explanations, get over there now! If necessary, use the Cataclysmic treasures!"

"Also, check with The military and see if there are any troops stationed near Longshan Road. If there are, give me their number!"
Hearing Qin Shuman's assertive arrangements, Qiu Tu felt a warmth in his heart.
He coughed and then said, "Shuman, the matter has been resolved."
Qin Shuman must have set the communicator aside and didn't hear.
So, after a moment of hesitation, Qiu Tu first ended the call, then dialed Qin Shuman's number again.
This time, Qin Shuman indeed picked up promptly.
As soon as the call connected, Qin Shuman's voice came through, full of concern, "Qiu Tu?! Are you alright?"
Feeling the woman's concern from the other end, Qiu Tu smiled and said nonchalantly, "Of course, I'm fine."
"Just a bunch of small fry, already taken care of."
After saying that, Qiu Tu joked, "I said it would take only a few minutes, and indeed it did, didn't it?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman paused, then couldn't help but laugh, "You do keep your word."
Afterward, she couldn't resist asking, "How did you resolve it?"
In front of Qin Shuman, Qiu Tu didn't need to hide anything, so he let out a "hmph" and said indifferently, "How else?
"Of course, by preparing in advance."
Qiu Tu said, "Don't forget, Yan Chen is in the midst of leveling up, and Director Tang and I have taken control of the entire Investigation Bureau."
"Now we have all the police forces of the various departments of the Investigation Bureau in our hands!"
"Power unused is power wasted!"
"I knew United Front was going to come seeking revenge these days, so I directly moved 300 Special Service Department agents to clear out a dozen villas near me and stationed them around to protect me."
"With such a grand display, no matter how many United Front sends, they would have to answer here."
"But... who lets me be in charge of the Investigation Bureau now!"
Listening to Qiu Tu's extremely arrogant words, Qin Shuman was somewhat incredulous. She opened her mouth in disbelief, paused for a moment, and then tentatively said, "It's probably good that you have so many people protecting you."
"After all, United Front just sent an assassin to attack you today."
"Although they were not successful, it does prove that they have indeed been plotting against you recently." (Chapter 247)
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu smiled.
He knew United Front would come to attack him, not because of the "Lone Wolf" assassination, but through the "Crisis Countdown" he had seen.
The "Crisis Countdown" showed United Front's attack on him today, with only 2.5 days left. (Chapter 241)
And the attack would most likely happen at night.
So... if not tonight, then tomorrow night.
A wise man does not stand under a wall that's about to collapse. And since power unused is power wasted, Qiu Tu naturally pulled out all stops for security these two days!
Of course... when Qiu Tu made these arrangements, he used the excuse of the "Lone Wolf" trying to assassinate him.
Thanks to this legitimate reason, the Special Duties Department Director Lin Ting, despite looking unpleasant, could not refuse.
Now that United Front really came to attack, Qiu Tu not only proved his "foresight," but also further confirmed that the assassin who killed Huang Shangzong's confidant Wu Zhi was a member of United Front.
It was indeed killing two birds with one stone...
As Qiu Tu was thinking this, Qin Shuman seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked, "Qiu Tu, did you just say you moved soldiers to clear out over a dozen villas near you?"
"You do live on Longshan Road."
"Those who live on Longshan Road are not ordinary people."
"Although they've left the power center of Xinjie City, they still wield tremendous influence." (Chapter 83)
"You didn't end up in conflict with them over this, did you?"
Hearing Qin Shuman's words, Qiu Tu smiled and replied, "Of course not."
"I'm much more familiar with Longshan Road than you."
"So, not only did I avoid conflicts with them, but I also prepared a grand performance especially for them!"
"After all, once Yan Chen comes out, if Director Tang and I intend to compete with him, Longshan Road could provide us with a lot of help...."
At this point, Qiu Tu looked toward the distance as if struck by a thought, then he softly said, "Speak of the devil, here they come...."
