Chapter 1488 - 1491: Wenren Meiqiao's Sudden Epiphany (Update 5)

Instantly, Wenren Meiqiao, whose anger was already at full throttle, was stunned. Her beautiful eyes stared unblinkingly at Shen Qiang's face full of helplessness, but her heart was filled with shock as if struck by a giant hammer."Realizing the suspect's motive from erroneous reasoning, Shen Qiang's thinking is nothing short of fiendish!"

At the same time she was secretly shocked by this thought, she was aghast to find that Shen Qiang found no joy in it at all. Instead, he lay bored on the sofa, muttering, "In this case, there's no need to investigate. The suspect is too obvious, there's nothing interesting about it, no challenge, simply boring."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao's heart immediately felt as if it was torn apart, as though she had suffered a colossal blow, slumping powerlessly into infinite darkness.

"Is Shen Qiang even human? How can anyone be smart to this degree? I've exhausted my mind, spent half a month, and found no clues, yet Shen Qiang found the murderer in less than an hour without even visiting the scene?"

"Is there really justice? How is it that he can be so strong!" Wenren Meiqiao was left with tears of frustration.

At that moment, as despair set in and Wenren Meiqiao began doubting her own intelligence, she suddenly heard Shen Qiang speak.

"Sometimes, certain things have to be admitted — the saying 'three cobblers surpass Zhuge Liang' is very true. If I thought about it alone, I would never consider the hotel. Even though I could still deduce the suspect's method, it would be difficult to instantly see through his motive. So, Wenren Meiqiao, be confident. Without your insight, I wouldn't have found him so easily."

Upon hearing this, it was as if light appeared ahead in the dark abyss in which Wenren Meiqiao had fallen; her mood suddenly became inexplicably excited.

"Right, even if it's an incorrect deduction, at least it's something I came up with!"

Her mood suddenly brightened, and she continued, "So now tell me who the suspect is, and we'll immediately move to capture him."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang reclined calmly on the sofa, looking at Wenren Meiqiao with an almost indifferent expression, he said, "If you refuse to use your brain and just want the answer, I can tell you who the suspect is right now, but there's a condition."

Instantly, Wenren Meiqiao erupted in anger, shouting, "Do you still want to exchange the suspect for the whereabouts of the Divine Corpse?"

Shen Qiang shook his head peacefully and said indifferently, "I don't need to make this trade with you. My condition is, since you won't use your brain and just seek assistance everywhere, you only need to agree that after capturing the suspect, you immediately resign, and then I will tell you."

"What did you say?" Wenren Meiqiao's eyebrows bristled, she shouted angrily, "This is the position I've fought for over a decade to get, and now you ask me to resign?"

Shen Qiang calmly said, "Yes, I am asking you to resign. Even if you think this is me getting revenge on you, I won't argue. But I remind you, you are now the regional safety chief of the Dragon Group; in your jurisdiction, at least several million people live, counting the transient population, nearly ten million."

"If you are incapable of protecting them, just give up your authority to someone more capable to do this job. And don't think this is my personal whim. Trust me, if your ability cannot match the role, even if you don't resign, the Dragon Group will soon transfer you out."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao raged, "You're also doubting me?"

Shen Qiang laughed, "I'm just letting you see reality; being a safety chief isn't just about wielding a blade."

Pointing at his head, Shen Qiang calmly raised his eyebrows and said, "I came to Beijing to study. You can assume I am here to shine my resume or think I am unconcerned with advancement, but you must understand I am not interested in being your private detective and cleaning up after you every day."

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao was stunned as if she had been punched hard in the chest, feeling terrible.

"He despises me, he scorns me, bastard, bastard!"

Wenren Meiqiao was so infuriated that her eyes turned red with tears.

Seeing this, Shen Qiang felt a bit of remorse, but Shen Qiang knew that as the security advisor of the Dragon Group, upon discovering Wenren Meiqiao's incompetence, there are only two outcomes: one, help her through the crisis and see if she has potential to improve; two, after aiding her through the crisis, report the situation to the Dragon Group and have them replace her.

After all, Shen Qiang also lives here!

Having an incompetent safety chief, it would be nerve-wracking every day, who can stand that? No matter how beautiful she is, this is a matter of principle, absolutely no compromise or concession can be made.

However, looking at the silent and agitated Wenren Meiqiao, Shen Qiang realized he might have been too harsh, sighed, and softened somewhat.

Strictly speaking, neither Qian Shanxue nor Wenren Meiqiao were usually counted as intellect-driven talents; they were elite members of the combat team. Her being made a safety chief was likely due to her high military rank, making it inappropriate to leave her in frontline combat.

Thus suddenly changing environments, Wenren Meiqiao might indeed not have adapted to the present scenarios.

After all, in the combat team, special operatives provide all sorts of information, and combat teams typically just follow orders, approach enemies, eliminate them, and return victorious.

But now, she can only rely on herself.

Colleagues are no longer as reliable as life-dependent comrades, so perhaps she's simply not accustomed to it. Ultimately, given the decisions from top levels of the Dragon Group, offering Wenren Meiqiao such a position at least means that the Dragon Group's higher-ups believe she has the ability. Otherwise, they wouldn't have given her such an opportunity.

So after a slight hesitation, Shen Qiang said, "Crying solves nothing. How about this: we change our outlook and think in terms of the Dragon Group's combat team strategies. Seriously consider this suspect as essentially an enemy who has launched a well-planned attack on your camp's fighters, seeking to profit quietly."

"And you, now as the main general of the defense side, possess unbeatable power against this enemy. He doesn't dare confront you directly; he's targeting the weaker ones in your camp, causing them to become ill. What battle opportunity can he gain from it?"

Upon hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao felt a sudden boom in her mind, which not only spun True Yuan around her, flaunting overpowering might, but her beautiful eyes also instantly radiated sharp brilliance, her gaze frighteningly bright.

"I've got it! This enemy has the weaker members infected and controls their outbreaks within the camp. His next move must be to disguise himself as a doctor to get close, because at that moment the camp desperately needs him!"

Excitedly gazing at Shen Qiang, Wenren Meiqiao spoke with trembling eyes, "Indeed, the suspect who intricately planned everything, his real identity is... a retired expert of filariasis specifically invited back by the hospital!"
