Chapter 616: Chapter 0618: Make a Fake

The police officer felt a chill down his spine, suddenly harboring a bad premonition.

He wanted to salvage, to salvage the mistake he made, to minimize his culpability.

With this in mind, the police officer spoke up loudly, reporting, "Director Cheng, Young Master Nangong is in the meeting room."

Upon hearing this, the station chief suddenly widened his eyes in shock, looking at the man, "What did you say? Young Master Nangong is really here? And in the meeting room?"

These damn bastards! They’ve caused him trouble!

"Director Cheng, I’ll take you to the meeting room right now."

Meanwhile, the person processing Chu Ge and the others only knew there was a commotion outside, but was unaware of what had happened, as their duties dictated that they should not be distracted while handling a case.

As he was explaining the steps of legal procedures to Chu Ge and the others, the door to the meeting room was suddenly pushed open.

A thunderous noise followed as many people walked in.

The police officer turned around displeasedly, and upon seeing the station chief, he immediately stood up straight respectfully, "Chief."

The station chief coughed lightly, acknowledged with a grunt, and then introduced, "This is Director Cheng."

The police officer was startled, then turned his gaze towards Director Cheng, "Greetings, Director Cheng."

Director Cheng did not acknowledge him as he was searching for Nangong Yunhai the moment he entered the meeting room.

When he saw Nangong Yunhai sitting at the conference table, he quickly bent over and approached him respectfully, saying, "Young Master Nangong, what brings you here?"

Nangong Yunhai looked up at him hazily, glanced at the time, and said teasingly, "Director Cheng, you came quite fast."

Director Cheng knew Nangong Yunhai was blaming him, but the traffic in Beijing was indeed indescribable, and he had already rushed here as quickly as possible.

Nangong Yunhai looked up, gestured with his chin, "Since Director Cheng is here, maybe you could explain to them how the legal procedures should be followed."

Director Cheng was still confused, unaware of the specifics of what had transpired, but from Nangong Yunhai’s demeanor, he knew it wasn’t anything positive.

Director Cheng’s smile faded as he asked the station chief, "What exactly is going on here?"

The station chief didn’t know the details either, but he recognized the woman and her husband; after all, they were frequent visitors to their police station.

He coughed softly, turned his head towards the police officer who had been interrogating them, and inquired, "Didn’t you hear Director Cheng asking? What exactly happened here?"

That police officer was already dumbfounded. Director Cheng was a national-level official, and to see him acting so reverently towards someone who appeared to be just of age, naturally he was suspicious.

Furthermore, the moment he heard Director Cheng address him as Young Master Nangong, he immediately thought of the Nangong Family, causing a chill to run down his spine.

Trembling, he stuttered a bit as he recounted everything that had happened.

Facing Director Cheng, he dared not conceal anything, so he also disclosed the past criminal records of the woman and her husband.

Upon hearing this, Director Cheng’s expression darkened like charcoal, and he glared at the station chief angrily, "Is this how your jurisdiction acts?"

The station chief wiped the sweat from his forehead, sighed, and in front of so many subordinates, he couldn’t say much and instead channeled all his frustration towards the interrogating officer.

"What are you still standing there for? Don’t you have any clue who is right and who is wrong in this matter?"

The woman and her husband were still clueless, unaware of what had happened. They thought they had the upper hand, but ultimately, they ended up being the ones locked up.

Only later did they learn that they had offended a big shot that even Director Cheng wouldn’t dare to offend.

With only their minor background, they could perhaps intimidate the station chief, but opposing Director Cheng? That was utterly impractical, like throwing an egg against a rock.

As Chu Ge and Shen Congwen left the police station, Director Cheng wanted to escort them, but Nangong Yunhai adamantly refused, so they parted ways with Director Cheng.

Chu Ge had just come out of the police station and was standing at the entrance waiting for Nangong Yunhai to fetch the car, when his gaze casually swept across the street and he spotted a familiar figure.

It was that masked man he had seen in Shanghai!

The same masked man who had competed with him for the second auction item, the Jade Buddha!

The man seemed to have sensed Chu Ge’s presence, as he merely glanced up at him before swiftly turning around and leaving.

Just like in Shanghai, dressed in a long black coat, wearing a black hat and mask, his entire presence shrouded in black, with only a pair of blood-red eyes exposed to the air, creating an exceptionally chilling sight.

Indeed, because of his attire, everyone avoided him, keeping their distance, which made it all the easier for Chu Ge to spot him.

Beside him, Shen Congwen noticed Chu Ge staring intently at something, and asked puzzledly, "Mr. Chu, what are you looking at?"

Chu Ge shook his head slightly, "Nothing much."

The Jade Buddha was still lying at home; he hadn’t brought it with him this time to Beijing, so he hadn’t had the chance to explore its secrets yet, especially since the Jade Buddha’s martial arts required the mental method from the third auction item, the Jade Plate, and both needed to be combined for use.

Due to the urgency of affairs in Beijing, he had decided to put this matter aside for now.

At that moment, Nangong Yunhai drove up, interrupting Chu Ge’s thoughts. Chu Ge and Shen Congwen got into the car, and it was only after sitting down that Shen Congwen relaxed his grip on the bag in his lap, letting out a long sigh, "This trip to Beijing has indeed been quite remarkable."

It was a significant ordeal from the start.

Nangong Yunhai glanced at the rearview mirror, then told them, "Don’t worry, these people won’t have the chance to scam at the train station anymore."

Chu Ge chuckled, turning to Shen Congwen, "How are the items?"

Shen Congwen hastily unzipped the backpack and looked inside; he was keeping the Lingzhi in a wooden box. He took out the box, opened it, and a fresh scent wafted out from it as soon as he lifted the lid.

"It smells wonderful," Nangong Yunhai remarked, appreciating the aroma of the Lingzhi, which was soothing to the senses just from its scent.

"This is a fully formed First-level Earth Ganoderma," Shen Congwen commented with unconcealed pride in his eyes.

Nangong Yunhai also wanted to take a look, but he was driving and couldn’t be distracted, so he had to settle for glimpsing it repeatedly in the rearview mirror.

Chu Ge passed the wooden box with the Earth Ganoderma over, having seen First-level Earth Ganoderma at Master Guangde’s before, though he had not examined it closely like now.

Momentarily, he seemed to realize something and asked Shen Congwen, "Can you make a fake version of this Earth Ganoderma for me?"
