Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 846: Chapter 845: Taking the Opposite Approach

”Let’s change our approach.”

Gu Tong’s gentle voice broke the silence that enveloped the room.

All eyes were drawn to her, watching intently as if waiting for her next words.

”What approach?”

Li Yan was the first to ask, because he knew well the advantage of this little woman: her agile mind, reverse thinking, and her ability to grasp the key points of things faster than others, making her trustworthy.

Gu Tong placed her hands on the table, leaning slightly forward as if she were lying down, and said, ”First, we need to abandon the question of why Silver Fang came to Shoucheng. Instead, we should focus on Shoucheng itself and study what major events have happened in Shoucheng recently.”

”What does this mean...”

Yan Lishan was a little confused. Their current target of investigation was Silver Fang, and if they abandoned the purpose of his visit to Shoucheng, the task couldn’t progress.

”It means exactly what it says. The information we currently have is that Silver Fang is someone completely driven by profit. Everything he does must be linked to profit. In simple terms, there’s only one possibility: money. Silver Fang is slippery like an eel and cunningly deceitful. Ordinary money wouldn’t catch his eye, so there must be a second possibility that could attract him: a lot of money, even a fortune!”

”From this point of view, what could draw Silver Fang could not be ordinary individuals. It must be someone influential in Shoucheng. As long as we investigate the recent major events in Shoucheng one by one, we will surely find a pattern and trace Silver Fang’s whereabouts.”

Gu Tong spoke so much at once that she felt a bit thirsty. She picked up the bottle of mineral water in front of her, unscrewed it, and took big gulps.

Yet, during this entire process, the war room had become eerily silent.

Everyone seemed to have lost their voices, staring at Gu Tong almost as if they were petrified.

They felt she was like a strategist, or perhaps a monster...

No one knew just how long had passed...

”Great idea!” Qiao Chenyi was the first to react. He slapped the table, finally revealing a smile on his face.

”Thinking in reverse like this is simply genius.”

”By doing this, we can also avoid the pitfalls of Silver Fang’s disguises. No matter how well he disguises himself, it’s still just to evade tracking and investigation. There’s no way he can refuse the transaction partners...”

One after another, the trainees all had the same realization and praised Gu Tong’s brilliant idea, unanimously affirming her approach.

”There aren’t many major events in Shoucheng, so looking into them is straightforward and won’t take much time. I’ll immediately allocate personnel to investigate recent major events.”

Yan Lishan’s interest was piqued too, silently marveling at Gu Tong’s extraordinary intelligence. Her reverse thinking was truly a rare talent.

He was excited, thinking about everything that happened since meeting Gu Tong. Though the time was short, he had gained some understanding of her, musing that geniuses indeed have personalities.

At this thought, the corners of his mouth lifted as he led his team to begin their investigation, determined to inspect all events as quickly as possible for rapid analysis.

The originally deadlocked combat plan suddenly saw hope.

”Having you accompany the Royal Doctor is truly overqualified for you; you should be the strategist in the War Department,” Qiao Chenyi said with a jesting tone, appearing more relaxed.

Perhaps because a difficult situation suddenly opened up a breakthrough, such a turn of events was enough to temporarily set his mind at ease.

”I have the clarity of an observer; it’s to my advantage. Besides, even if I didn’t say it, you all could analyze the situation yourselves.”

Gu Tong modestly replied when appropriate, just as she never sought excess merit when it came to military achievements and the like.
