Qiu Tu's suspicions were not without reason.
Tan Huimin, due to her identity issues, had actually been somewhat invisible at the Investigation Bureau previously.
She knew barely anyone and had hardly any sources of information.
It was only recently, when she became Qiu Tu's secretary and a key node in Qiu's faction, coupled with Qiu's deliberate nurturing, that she gradually developed her own intelligence network.
But... an intelligence network can't possibly emerge out of thin air; it must spread through a network of trusted associates, from person to person.
And the people Tan Huimin could currently reach were simply incapable of accessing state secrets of the kind from the province.
Therefore, Qiu Tu found it strange where Tan Huimin's information came from.
Indeed, upon hearing Qiu's words, Tan Huimin, while driving, softly explained, "Minister, the information was provided by a judge who claims to be surnamed Liu."
