<h4>Chapter 865: Chapter 867: Betrayal</h4>
At the entrance of the abandoned warehouse, this area is already considered the suburbs. However, due to illegal constructions being demolished around here, this abandoned warehouse also falls under that category.
It just hasn’t been demolished yet.
Now there’s been a murder case, five deaths at once. Although the authorities quickly cordoned off the area, the news spread fast, causing panic among the locals.
A police line was set up around the warehouse, with many locals gathered outside to take a look, while Chu Ge and others stood in the middle.
"Mr. Chu, we can’t enter, so we can’t see what’s going on."
Huo Tianqian nced inside the warehouse. The bodies had already been cleared; only some traces remained. By now, even the surrounding evidence might have been wiped away by those police officers.
Chu Ge pondered momentarily; he had considered this possibility too. He looked at those police officers, some of whom seemed familiar, as if he’d seen them somewhere before.
Chu Ge’s gaze was so sharp that the policeman quickly noticed. In the crowd, he spotted Chu Ge due to his connection with the Nangong Family and recognized him immediately.
The policeman approached, confused, and asked, "Mr. Chu? Why are you here?"
Chu Ge looked at him with a questioning gaze, as if asking why.
The policeman knew Chu Ge wouldn’t recognize him, so he introduced himself proactively, "I’m from the Old District police station. I saw you when you came to the police station, but there were many people at that time, so you might not remember me."
Chu Ge suddenly realized and nodded, "Hello, what’s going on here? Can you tell me?"
The policeman sighed; he originally couldn’t share these details. But he was quite a talker and nced around before pulling Chu Ge aside to speak, "Who knows? Early this morning, we found five mummified corpses, leaving no traces behind, really strange."
Chu Ge was silent for a moment. After ck Widow had absorbed all their True Qi, at most they would revert to ordinary people. Could it be that ck Widow’s cultivation of the Star Shifting Technique had reached its highest level?
Suspicions crossed Chu Ge’s mind, but there was another possibility: these people’s cultivation methods were not proper, or they were already very old, suddenly losing their True Qi, causing all their organs to age rapidly...
No matter which reason, it’s now impossible to confirm, "I’d like to take a look inside, is that okay?"
The policeman looked troubled, "Well, I have to ask first."
After all, he was just a helper. If he made a decision on his own and the higher-ups weren’t pleased, he could be reprimanded.
Chu Ge nodded, "That’s right, you go ahead. I’ll wait for your update."
Once the policeman left, Huo Tianqian and Long Ang came over, "Mr. Chu, what’s the situation?"
"He said there’s no evidence left at the scene."
Long Ang frowned, "How did he exin the rope?"
Chu Ge shook his head, "He didn’t mention the rope, but they are ordinary people; it’s unlikely for them to recognize the rope exclusive to your Dragon Group at a nce. Even if some among them are Ancient Martial Artists, they may not know the rope belongs to your Dragon Group."
Long Ang considered it, and Chu Ge was right. The Dragon Group’s special rope looked no different from a regr rope on the outside, except for some distinctive markings.
"Although the news has been withdrawn, it will still cause a stir. I’m sure people from the Dragon Group have seen it."

Long Ang sighed again, "If someone from the Dragon Group is really involved in this matter, I think the Great Elder would feel very pained."
Chu Ge looked at Long Ang with curiosity and joked, "Long Ang, you are such a sentimental person."
Long Ang was startled and then sheepishly scratched his head, smiling awkwardly without saying anything further.
Chu Ge realized once again that Long Ang wasn’t as strong and tough as rumored; he was a rather reserved and sincere person. It was only because he had to be mature while in the position of Group Leader.
The policeman who went to inquire came running back, "Mr. Chu, our superior said you can go inside."
Chu Ge nodded, watching as those police officers gradually exited the warehouse, and asked, confused, "Have you finished searching it?"
The policeman nodded, "Yes, everything has been gathered; there’s nothing left to find at the scene, not a single shred of evidence, it’s really strange."
Long Ang’s gaze casually fell upon a policeman holding a rope inside a stic bag.
He frowned slightly, "Hey, can I take a look at that rope?"
The policeman was momentarily stunned, then followed Long Ang’s gaze and called out, "Xiao Wang,e over here."
The one named Xiao Wang came over, puzzled, "What’s up?"
"I want to see this rope."
The policeman passed the rope over, then turned and handed it to Long Ang, "There’s a rule that evidence can’t be shown casually, but you’re a friend of Mr. Chu, so you can only take a quick look."
Long Ang agreed; just a quick look was enough.
He took the rope, and upon seeing the unique Dragon Group markings, his originally skeptical heart sankpletely.
This really was the Dragon Group’s exclusive rope; there was indeed an insider within the Dragon Group.
Long Ang tightly closed his eyes and handed the rope back to the policeman, "Thanks, my friend."
The policeman, seeing Long Ang’s young-looking appearance, found it surprising to be called ’my friend.’ It made him a bit ufortable, so he awkwardly asked, "How old are you anyway, calling me ’my friend.’ I think we’re about the same age."
Long Ang wanted tough, but his lips merely twitched, unable to smile, "I’m actually much older than you, so calling you ’my friend’ is normal."
The policeman didn’t dwell on it further since someone was calling for them from the side.
"Well, Mr. Chu, I’ll take my leave now."
After the policeman bid farewell, Chu Ge turned to Long Ang, "Is it confirmed?"
Long Ang nodded without speaking.
Although the result was hard for him to ept immediately, he couldn’t help forcing himself to ept it now.
Chu Ge sighed, raising his hand to pat Long Ang’s shoulder, "Don’t think too much. This no longer concerns you; you’re not part of the Dragon Group anymore."
Long Ang understood this, but since he was once the Group Leader of the Dragon Group, he couldn’t view it so openly.
He even felt a tinge of sadness and disappointment in his heart, never expecting such betrayal among the people of the Dragon Group.
