Chapter 172: Chapter 0172: Death by Suicide

"Crack—" A sharp sound echoed as the pistol fell to the floor; the sound of dripping blood came from behind Chu Ge.

One must admit, Poison Snake was a decisive man. Knowing the game was up, he swallowed his gun and committed suicide without a moment’s hesitation.

Chu Ge didn’t even glance at him, heading straight out of the office.

By then, the entire office building was empty, or rather, there were no living people left.

Anyone who could move had fled as soon as Chu Ge left; those with broken arms and legs also left with the help of their companions.

"Duan Family, Ghost Poison Sect. Hmph, Duan Family, I hope you don’t get too close to the Ghost Poison Sect; otherwise, I won’t mind turning the Four Great Families of Modu into the Three Major Families!"

Chu Ge muttered softly, then slowly pressed the elevator button.

It was nearing dusk, the setting sun descended, Chu Ge casually threw the Tang Blade in the lobby on the first floor, then walked out of the building, inhaling gently under the blood-red setting sun.

After all, this was his first time slaughtering so many, and his emotions were somewhat difficult to calm.

Suddenly, several vans drove up the alley, their doors opened, and about a hundred burly men jumped out, surrounding Chu Ge in the center, looking at him nervously.

These men were true fighters, seasoned in countless battles; ordinary people might not feel it, but they could smell an intense scent of blood coming from this young man!

"Mr. Chu!"

Just as Chu Ge frowned slightly, a voice suddenly came from the crowd. Ah Hu, dressed in athletic clothes, ran over, staring wide-eyed at Chu Ge: "Are you alright?"

"Do I look like something is wrong?" Chu Ge looked at him with a half-smile: "The situation inside is settled. From now on, until Huo Tianqian returns, you call the shots in Shanghai’s underworld."

Actually, Chu Ge’s remark was a test for Ah Hu, and fortunately, Ah Hu showed no sign of excitement but was silent for a while, then asked in a complicated tone: "Then... what about Poison Snake?"

It must be said, Ah Hu had a fatal flaw: he was overly sentimental.

Even though Poison Snake had done such a thing, with over a decade of camaraderie, if Poison Snake were handed over to Ah Hu, he would likely let him go.

However, this was exactly why Chu Ge valued him.

"He’s dead." Chu Ge turned his head and looked towards the top of the office building, adding: "Knowing it was futile, he killed himself."

"Suicide..." Ah Hu gave a bitter smile and murmured softly: "I guessed as much. With his personality, it was either victory or... this outcome!"

Ultimately, Ah Hu was sentimental but definitely not a simpleton. His mournful mood lasted only a few seconds before he snapped back to reality and commanded the people behind him: "All of you, go to the building and start cleaning up."

"Oh..." Ah Hu paused for a moment, looked at Chu Ge’s expression, and said cautiously: "Take care with Poison Snake’s body, preserve it well, and after a few days when things are less busy, arrange a proper funeral."

After speaking, Ah Hu nervously watched Chu Ge and seeing no apparent dissatisfaction, sighed in relief and whispered: "Mr. Chu, only the dirty work is left here; we can handle it. Where would you like to go now? I can arrange someone to take you."

"No need, you guys go ahead." Chu Ge waved his hand.

After all, Ah Hu and his men had too special an identity, and if Bingtong knew he was mingling with them, she would certainly worry more.

Watching Chu Ge’s disappearing silhouette, a gang leader came over and whispered: "Tiger Brother, what about now..."

"Clean up the company." Ah Hu shook his head and started directing people towards the company.

Yet, even for these battle-hardened professional fighters, the sight in the lobby on the first floor still caught them off guard momentarily.

The entire lobby’s floor was almost dyed red with blood; a dozen bodies lay haphazardly here and there, with no other injuries except a thin slice at the neck!

The first floor lobby was the first checkpoint; no one was aware of Chu Ge’s skill, treating him just like an incapable young man, which also made it the place with the fiercest resistance and naturally, the most killings.

Not just the first floor, but with every floor ascended, their shock increased.

They knew that all this was caused by a young man in his early twenties with a mere Tang Blade!

Especially when they reached the twelfth floor and saw countless crossbow arrows scattered around, they were utterly horrified.

"Old Wolf, you ultimately followed the wrong person!"

Ah Hu slowly walked to the severed head placed at the staircase entrance, stretched out his hand, gently slid it across Old Wolf’s forehead, and closed his eyes.

"Sigh, later, remember to have someone stitch up Old Wolf’s body and arrange a decent funeral." Ah Hu sighed, shakily standing up.

"Yes." Immediately, his men came over, starting to handle Old Wolf’s body.

Just then, a shout suddenly rang out: "Tiger Brother, come look!"

The speaker was a middle-aged man, who also had the best skills among these fighters, reportedly with family-inherited martial arts skills.

"What’s wrong?" Ah Hu walked over, looking at the crossbow arrow in the middle-aged man’s hand, his brow slightly furrowing: "What’s wrong with this crossbow arrow?"

"Look here." The middle-aged man pointed at a thin line in the middle of the crossbow arrow, saying: "Look at this mark."

"This is..." Ah Hu furrowed his brow, carefully examining the thin line, then suddenly widened his eyes, whispering in a lowered voice: "This... is this a cut mark?"

"Exactly!" The middle-aged man nodded, pointing to countless crossbow arrows scattered on the floor: "I’ve checked almost all of these crossbow arrows here, every single one has the same cut marks!"

"This..." Ah Hu was shocked.

The middle-aged man continued: "I’ve imagined a scenario. When Mr. Chu came to this floor, Old Wolf ordered a crossbow arrow shot. There were over a hundred crossbows. Over a hundred crossbow arrows, all split by Mr. Chu with one Tang Blade without a single one missed!"

"Over a hundred crossbow arrows fired simultaneously, all split by the Tang Blade, not a single arrow missed!" Ah Hu gasped in astonishment.

Meanwhile, another voice spoke: "Tiger Brother, come look."

The speaker pointing to a bullet embedded in the wall, Ah Hu carefully examined it, exchanging a look with the middle-aged man, both seeing shock in each other’s eyes.

Because, on this bullet as well, was a clear cut mark!
