Chapter 552
The ones transporting Pang Haichen's corpse were Yan Chen, Dai Yukang, and Tang Feifei.
Yan Chen and Dai Yukang were the leading team in capturing Pang Haichen, while Tang Feifei was the reinforcement.
Returning to Dongye State, Tang Feifei was alright, but Yan Chen and Dai Yukang both had noticeably unpleasant expressions.
The reason was quite simple.
Originally, Qiu Tu had assigned two masters to accompany them, to capture Pang Haichen together, to earn "credit" for the two.
As a result, after their long journey to that small motel, they discovered Pang Haichen had died there!
Although they had already learned from Qiu Tu about Pang Haichen's betrayal, knew he had been removed from the Sanctuary, and was no longer one of the six leaders.
However, it's important to know... even so, Pang Haichen still holds huge political influence.
He could die, but not right now.
Once he died, the Sanctuary would need to spend more resources to maintain stability and unity.
This kind of additional expense would diminish their merit, potentially leading to negative evaluation.
For the two, who came from the lower ranks, this would be devastating.
Because it might affect their promotion.
This was why both of them looked so gloomy.
As for Tang Feifei...
Her grandfather is Tang Wanfeng.
Her family holds shares of the Sanctuary, and is the second largest shareholder.
Even if she was just arriving as reinforcement, switching her to Yan Chen or Dai Yukang's position wouldn't affect her much.
This chaotic world is thus realistic...
Qiu Tu met the three of them in the Eastern City suburb.
Upon seeing Qiu Tu, Tang Feifei's expression remained unchanged, while Dai Yukang deeply bowed his head and said, "Speaker, I have failed your trust."
Qiu Tu had already "learned" about Pang Haichen's death over the phone.
So his expression was also extremely serious.
He asked in a low voice, "Were all the photos and videos of the scene captured?"
Dai Yukang adjusted his rimless glasses, let out a "hmm," and then said soberly, "All were captured."
Qiu Tu asked again, "What did the forensic say?"
Dai Yukang said solemnly, "The forensic's preliminary examination found no external injuries, no abnormalities either."
"It's like he suddenly passed away."
Upon hearing this, Yan Chen, who had been silent since meeting Qiu Tu, replied in a hoarse voice, "Old Dai and I suspect it's... the doing of an Evil God."
Dai Yukang's body noticeably paused for a moment, but then he nodded, "Yes. That's our speculation."
Qiu Tu, upon hearing this, looked deeply at them and then softly affirmed, "Such a speculation is also normal."
"However, the exact cause of death still needs to be investigated by the Sanctuary. You just need to report the matter truthfully."
"Yes." Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, the two hurriedly responded.
Seeing their agreement, Qiu Tu walked toward Pang Haichen's corpse covered by white cloth, lifted the cloth for a look.
Under the white cloth, Pang Haichen looked very peaceful, as if he died of old age. Possibly because he was already a Peak Fourth Rank Cataclysmic, even after more than ten hours of death, his body remained unchanged, still lifelike.
Qiu Tu seemed to glance idly, shook his head slightly upon looking, and then casually covered Pang Haichen's face again with the white cloth.
Then he said to the three, "The journey ahead still requires the three of you to endure some hardship."
"Old Rao and Elder Tang are still waiting for the autopsy, quickly transport the body to them."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Yan Chen, Dai Yukang, and Tang Feifei all answered.
After giving instructions and finishing the inspection, Qiu Tu then departed from the convoy with the three's company.
Returning to his own convoy, Shen Lingshuang had already obediently opened the car door. Qiu Tu got into the car, waved at the three, and then instructed the driver, "Let's go."
With Qiu Tu's approval, the driver started the car, heading toward Eastern City.
The convoy slowly turned direction, some vehicles opened the path ahead of Qiu Tu's car, others protected the sides and the rear. Just like that, the convoy grandly departed.
Watching the back of Qiu Tu's convoy,
He waved at the three and then said, "Take a rest first, we will set off in the afternoon."

Earlier when he kissed Larilo, Qiu Tu noticed that Evil Gods... seemed somewhat different from ordinary humans.
Their lips and bodies, seemed softer? More supple? Higher in temperature?
Thus, even with such simple play, Qiu Tu felt a kind of extreme enjoyment.
'Is this the taste of Evil Gods?'
'Pretty nice indeed!'
Maybe sensing Qiu Tu waking up, Larilo started moving more vigorously.
So soon enough, Qiu Tu surrendered, foam at his mouth.
After the first battle finished, Qiu Tu wanted to have a good chat with Larilo, ask her why she returned.
However, before he could speak, Larilo quickly changed tactics: using her white bosom to console Qiu Tu's companion.
Qiu Tu was a bit dazed, instinctively sensing something wrong.
But... Larilo didn't give him room to explain or resist, abruptly speeded things up, forcibly awakened Qiu Tu's companion.
Honestly, men as creatures, indeed have big-headed sons, small-headed fathers.
Thus, Qiu Tu truly wanted to have some dignity. But... some things, can't be solved merely by dignity.
Thus... in the end, Qiu Tu laid on the bed staring at the ceiling, silently comforting himself in his heart, 'Forget it, forget it, it's all just means to please myself.'
