"Trusted aide…"
Dakville III was about to order his trusted aide to go to Elder Gru's residence to find evidence.
Elder Gru sighed and said, "No need to search."
Upon hearing his words, the Black Iron Dwarves present all looked at him with complex expressions.
Elder Gru looked up at Lu Heng and asked, "When did you start suspecting me?"
Lu Heng spread his hands and answered, "Actually, if you weren't so malevolent towards me, I might not have suspected you at all.
"However, it was just a suspicion at first, until you said something that confirmed your identity as a traitor.
"You may not have realized, but you let something slip."
Elder Gru looked puzzled and asked, "Which statement?"
Lu Heng scratched his eyebrow and said, "Just now, you asked me a question. You asked if I was alone when I sneaked into Black Stone City and then escaped by myself.
