Rise of the White Dragon
chapter-388

Since Renato started to suspect Ismael, the alleged gay friend of his ex-fiancée with whom she had an affair, Renato started to investigate him.

One thing he did notice was that his information was just plain weird, to say the least.

After a very thorough search, he saw charges on his behalf, but when he went to look at his criminal record, it was clean.

'Something is very wrong here...' Renato was no investigation genius, but he knew at least the minimum to understand that this was all very strange.

The fact that Ismael suddenly appeared in Bia's life was strange. It wasn't like they'd been friends for a long time or anything.

The more he tried to figure it out, the weirder and more confusing things got.

When he went to the cities Ishmael once lived in, some people didn't even know anything about him, but then, some random people confusedly remembered. There was even a child in one town who said he was a dangerous man not to be approached.

'What the hell.' Renato returned to the island after investigating all the cities.

He was practically certain that Ismael manipulated Bia. As for the murder, he still wasn't so sure, but he could see that possibly he was the one behind what happened from the beginning.

One thing he researched later was the other victims of the Antichrist serial killer.

One thing in common was that all the victims were young women and ex-fiancées...

There was just something that was different, in many cases, they cheated on people who didn't match the description of Ishmael's appearance.

However, Renato thought of something: 'By gaining the power to manipulate the memories of people weaker than him, Ismael decided to act for himself?'

It was possible. Maybe he liked to make women who were about to be married and then torture and kill those women.

'I don't know how right I am, but I think I'm on the right track...' Renato muttered in his heart.

He didn't try to talk to the police about what he discovered. After all, this person apparently can control people's minds, maybe even read minds, however, it seems that it only works up to the Third Order, and above that, it doesn't seem to work well, or even work at all.

Renato didn't want to spoil everything. So, he continued investigating on his own.

At the same time, he received messages from the Elite Squad...

When he saw it, Renato sighed in helplessness but had a warm smile as he felt warm inside.

Knowing he wasn't going to be alone, Renato shared with them all the information he could.

One day and a few hours later...

At this time, Renato discovered Ismael's whereabouts and began to follow him from afar with a stealth skill.

"As expected, the Dimas family is not good!"

"The rich don't care about anyone but themselves, even their subordinates become insignificant in their eyes."

It is not known when it started, but on almost all media platforms, they were talking about the case of Bia de Sousa.

The main target was an anonymous person who showed evidence of the ex-fiancée of Renato Lopes, a member of the Elite Squad that was created by CEO Luan Dimas, as well as the current most powerful man in the world.

The details show that even after a few days of the murder of Bia de Sousa, despite Renato Lopes trying to find the culprit, and helping in the investigation, the Dimas family did not seem to do anything to support Renato Lopes.

"Wasn't that to be expected? I mean, why would they care about a woman unrelated to them?"

While it made sense, many people couldn't stand it. They believed that since the Dimas family was so powerful, they should help their subordinates in every way possible; even though Bia de Sousa is currently just Renato Lopes' ex-fiancée.

"Tsk, tsk, I bet they just look down on poor Bia's poor background, and that's why they don't want to help!"

"My God, is there still justice in the world? Why doesn't a lightning strike this rich family?"

"Yes, the Heavens don't have eyes, if they did, they would have already been struck by lightning and died!"

But of course, there were many people who were grateful to the Dimas family, and they were furious to see comments like that.

"You upstairs, fuck you! Yes, that's right, why the hell don't you look at your ass and see if it's shit? Hell, I saw your profile, as well as many others who talked a lot of shit. Each one of you must never even get up to give a seat on a bus to someone in need, let alone come to criticize the family that helped the country the most in times of crisis!"

"I completely agree with the person above. Heavens, what does a serial-killer crime have to do with the Dimas family? Why do they need to mobilize to investigate this case? By the way, do you actually know if they did something or not? Damn, I'm so angry!"

More and more people commented on the negative comments against the Dimas family. Although many people who were helped indirectly or even directly thanks to them, still dare to say such a thing against them, those who had their heads in the right place and good character knew how to be grateful.

Even big companies, as well as famous people in Brazil, spoke out, even world famous people who heard about it, spoke out in support of the Dimas family.

Somehow, the amount that began to criticize the Dimas family was so great that it even caught the attention of international people, mainly due to the fact that the Dimas family has been the center of attention in recent months.

At the same time, Dimas Corporation made an announcement: "@Maira Dimas, Renato Lopes in addition to being an important subordinate under Elias' tutelage, is also a good friend to all of us. Although he did not want to cause problems and said he would do it on his own, the Tropa de Elite group itself committed to helping and is investigating the case, but this matter was kept confidential so as not to disturb the investigation!"

At the same time, it was shown in a mosaic that the people of the Elite Squad were being surrounded by several people who came to criticize them for not helping Renato who should be their friend, however, what they did not know was that they were being used by someone evil.

There were all kinds of pictures of them in different parts of town, and lots of doctored information about them, saying how bad of a friend they were, making a lot of people feel a responsibility to criticize them.

Whoever was behind this, did everything meticulously, first getting the public's attention and then, posting the location information of the Elite Squad members, making them look bad and successfully making people go after them.

It was all very fast and because of the fame they had, some people approached each of them, this was actually hampering the efficiency of their investigation.

Maira, who was sitting in her office at the company, had a cold look on her face as she thought about who was behind all of this.

What was not explained, was that although the Elite Squad members had been surrounded by people and were indeed hindering them, it was that they were, at best, a distraction.

In the photos, it was possible to see Renato's location, but that was not the real Renato, the real one was still following Ismael in stealth mode that not even the most advanced cameras would be able to film him.
