Qian Shanxue, sitting silently in the driver's seat for a long time, finally showed a hint of a smile on her beautiful face.

"Blind, and irrational love?"

The sunny smile of Shen Qiang inexplicably appeared in her mind, and her gaze softened unexpectedly.

At this moment, Ye Xiaolei suddenly reminded, "Wang Lizhi is coming out."

Qian Shanxue's eyes instantly turned cold and sharp.

...

The next day was uneventful, with no substantial progress in the case, and that Madame Rose did not call Shen Qiang either.

In the evening, Shen Qiang went to the cigar club again, but not only did he not encounter Madame Rose, he didn't even meet Wang Lizhi.

Then, on the morning of the third day, when Xiu Ju, looking satisfied, lazily opened her eyes to look at Shen Qiang.

She found Shen Qiang leaning against the bed, fiddling with a laptop, his expression unusually grave, which made Xiu Ju say in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Shen Qiang smiled, turned his head to look at her and said, "Do you know which department in the Dragon Group is specifically targeting demons?"

Upon hearing this, Xiu Ju lazily rested her head on Shen Qiang's thigh and said leisurely, "Of course the Dragon Group has a department targeting demons, its full name is the Demon Taming Safety Department."

Shen Qiang frowned at these words, "Why haven't I found this department on the Dragon Group's website?"

Xiu Ju smiled, then, after a moment of silence, said, "Because they are a mysterious bunch, although within the Dragon Group their existence is no secret, but externally it's not publicized, and there aren't many members. It's said that the members of that department all have extraordinary powers capable of restraining demons, so the Demon Taming Safety Department has always been one of the hardest departments to enter in the Dragon Group."

Shen Qiang was surprised, "Harder to get into than the Dark Department?"

Xiu Ju smirked arrogantly, "Hmph, those people in the Demon Taming Safety Department will never have the opportunity to enter the Dragon Group. The Dark Department is the most powerful core, the perpetual engine of the Dragon Group."

Looking up at Shen Qiang, Xiu Ju said coquettishly, "However, within our Dark Department, there were some rumors about the Demon Taming Safety Department, roughly meaning that among the people in that Department, there are demons."

"Demons?" Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Xiu Ju giggled, "That's what the rumors say, and there aren't many of them, the office location of the Demon Taming Safety Department is even more of a forbidden area, even we in the Dark Department can't enter without authorization."

"Furthermore, their authority is very high, the Demon Taming Safety Department only answers to the top level of the Dragon Group, so within the Dragon Group, they hold a high status, very aloof, with basically no contact with other departments."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang frowned, "So you didn't investigate them while you were in the Dark Department?"

"I did!" Xiu Ju replied.

Shen Qiang's eyes lit up immediately, "What did you find?"

"Three days in confinement," Xiu Ju raised her eyebrows helplessly, "I didn't even enter the Safety Department, just got close to them and was discovered, then I got punished with three days of confinement, and after that, I was sent everywhere on tasks, so I didn't really have the chance to approach them."

Shen Qiang was surprised, "In this case, the Demon Taming Safety Department must have many secrets, otherwise, it wouldn't be so tightly controlled."

Xiu Ju smiled, then said in a heavy tone, "Actually, apart from the most junior members, whose service duration is very long, the members of other departments in the Dragon Group don't typically serve for long, usually choosing to transfer after accumulating enough military merit over time."

"But the Taming Department is a strange place, when I was curious about them, I once sneakily looked at the stipend distribution records of the Safety Department and found that many of them have already received more than fifty years' worth of stipends, but when checked further, you can't find them."

"So many people say that the members of the Demon Taming Safety Department are demons themselves."

Xiu Ju said, "However, from what I understand, every few years, new people join there, plus, I once saw a young man with considerable cultivation join the Taming Department, so saying the Taming Department is full of demons is impossible. I speculate that it's more like a group of cultivation practitioners with the ability to tame demons, accompanied by some already domesticated demons, which is closer to the truth."

Shen Qiang was silent for a moment, then said, "So isn't it somewhat similar to Heshenghe?"

Xiu Ju laughed, "It's not the same, if the Dragon Group's Demon Taming Safety Department had a King of Demons like you, I guess there wouldn't be any demons left in the world by now." Then Xiu Ju's eyes lit up, "I suddenly think, if you went to the Demon Taming Safety Department, you'd definitely make it."

Shen Qiang smiled, "Unfortunately, they haven't invited me."

Xiu Ju frowned, then after a moment of silence, full of curiosity, asked, "Then why are you asking about this?"

Shen Qiang smiled, "Lately, I've been feeling that something seems off, as if someone inside the Dragon Group is targeting Heshenghe from behind, so I'm just asking."

Upon hearing this, Xiu Ju furrowed her brow, saying, "Those people in the Safety Department often take on demon-related tasks, speaking of which, there's indeed some conflict with your Heshenghe, if those demons all defect to you, they'd have nothing to do."

"Moreover, now you're the incredibly famous King of Demons in the Cultivation World, which might also make the geniuses in the Demon Taming Safety Department uncomfortable."

Shen Qiang nodded, "The issue might well lie here."

Xiu Ju smiled, then said, "It's okay, you don't need to worry too much, people from the Safety Department rarely interfere with other departments, and your Dragon Group Advisor position is agreed upon by the highest level of the Dragon Group, so rest assured, they don't dare to touch you."

"But they dare to touch Heshenghe, dare to touch all the demons of Heshenghe." Shen Qiang sighed calmly, "Because the title of Dragon Group Security Advisor was given to Shen Qiang, not Heshenghe, so you and Zhan Deyuan should quickly set up an internal monitoring team, help me keep an eye on these demons, and try to keep them from causing too much trouble for me."

"Don't worry." Xiu Ju's eyes brightened as she said, "That Zhan Deyuan is amazing, simply a genius in tracking and hunting, I now believe he's even better than my master."

Shen Qiang smiled, nodding with satisfaction.

And just at that moment.

Shen Qiang's phone rang, picking it up, he instantly perked up, because the person calling was that seductive beauty who called herself Madame Rose.

"Although it's a bit presumptuous, I just couldn't resist calling you because I miss you, so I want to see you once more before you leave the Provincial City."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang hesitated with a feigned reluctance, "This isn't really good, I have a business meeting scheduled."
