Chapter 62: Susan on the Embankment
Extraordinary materials trading market gle search and reading
Through Sally's story, Li Feng learned that Marcus fell in love with Susan, the person in charge of Room 3.
And more than a week ago, Marcus came to the extraordinary material trading market every day to "harass" Susan.
"Is Miss Susan in the market now? I want to know something from her."
Li Feng asked Sally.
Sally smiled and shook her head:
"She resigned more than a week ago. Well, let me think about it, she resigned on the 1st, July 1st."
July 1st.
When Li Feng heard this date, his heart tightened.
He and other players traveled here at midnight on July 1st.
And today is July 10th, which was indeed more than a week ago.
No longer thinking about the date, Li Feng pondered slightly and asked:
"Then do you know why Miss Susan resigned?"
Sally shrugged and said:
"I don't know, maybe it's because I was harassed by Marcus."
"Does she hate Marcus?"
Li Feng grasped the key points and continued to ask.
Hearing this question, Sally laughed:
"Which serious girl would like Marcus? He hangs out with skilled women every day, and he is also a prostitute. Who would like a prostitute?"
Li Feng nodded after hearing this and continued to ask:
"So, Susan resigned because she was avoiding Marcus?"
Li Feng finds this difficult to establish.
In Wind's End City, there are not many jobs for women, and there are even fewer decent jobs.
Nearly one-fifth of the women here work in Flower Street. This alone is enough to illustrate the problem.
Being able to become the room manager of the Extraordinary Materials Trading Market is undoubtedly a decent, safe job with a good salary.
Quitting your dream job just because of an annoying suitor doesn't seem realistic.
Because in the conversation just now, Li Feng also learned.
Miss Susan is also a foreigner, and also comes from a commoner background, and has no property to inherit.
If she quits her job, it's likely that the next few months' rent will be a problem.
As for an undesirable suitor, the security personnel in the market can kick him out.
This cannot be a reason for Susan to resign.
"Who knows, Susan doesn't usually like to communicate with us."
Sally shook her head, thoughtfully:
"Maybe it has nothing to do with Marcus. After all, I saw her and Marcus together the afternoon before yesterday, on my way to the post office."
Li Feng felt a chill in his heart when he heard Sally's words.
The day before yesterday was July 8, and Susan and Marcus met.
And according to the fat editor.
The new issue of "Marcus Flower Street Miss Directory" was completed by Marcus on the evening of July 8th and printed on the night of July 8th.
In other words, Marcus met Susan before writing the crazy words.
After understanding this, Li Feng immediately asked the market administrator for Susan's address.
And because Li Feng is a priest of the Purple Flower Church, he is also the person designated by the Earth Ring to investigate the case.
The marketing manager was very cooperative and dug out the information Susan registered when she joined the company.
He was also very considerate and copied Susan's address on a piece of paper and gave it to Li Feng.
After Li Feng thanked him, he said goodbye to Ralph and Sally and went to Susan's residence - Luoxia Bay.
Luoxia Bay is a medium-sized residential area close to the sea.
Most people with stable jobs rent here, and Susan's rented house is also here.
The morning sun shines onto the harbor.
Li Feng walked on the intricate roads in the dock area to go to Luoxia Bay.
Due to the intervention of Storm's End, many of the Governor's knights and soldiers have arrived in the Docklands today.
The governor's knights are all extraordinary, or quasi-extraordinary, nobles.
The soldiers are all recruited from civilians.
Because the governor's illegitimate son, Jory Fell, the commander of this demonic incident, believed that rats would spread the demon's filthy spells.
So now, soldiers are under the command of the knight, using extraordinary items or special tools to capture mutated rats.
They killed the mutated rats that suddenly had a rat head growing out of their necks and were extremely asymmetrical in appearance.
Their carcasses were then piled at the intersections of every road, waiting to be disposed of.
Li Feng discovered that there were many mutated rats.
As Bishop Frey said, the situation does not appear to be good.
But the same thing.
Li Feng believes that finding Marcus and Susan is equally important as dealing with the mice.
It is highly possible that they have been influenced by demons.
Perhaps in the past few days, like the first mate, they will become bodies for the devil to descend.
The sea breeze stirred up the waves, hitting the embankment of the pier over and over again.
Li Feng finally reacted when he was suddenly blown by the wet and salty sea breeze.
He had been concentrating on the mutated mouse and the clues to the case, so he had unknowingly taken a long detour.
He actually walked to the embankment of the pier.
Feeling strange in his heart, Li Feng became alert.
The embankment of the pier is long and crowded with people.
There are traders doing business, sailors who have gone ashore to play cards with nothing to do, and artists who play xylophone on the roadside.
A bustling atmosphere.
Li Feng paid careful attention to his surroundings and walked forward slowly.
At this moment, without warning, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the front.
"There's a person in the sea, come quickly, someone fell into the water!"
With this shout, many people on the embankment gathered around, and Li Feng also rushed over.
However, just as he was about to walk over quickly, he heard a whisper in his ear:
"Faraniel——"
Li Feng was shocked when he heard the whisper.
'What do you mean? Is this place also related to "Faraniel"? '
'So I walked here inexplicably? '
The strange feeling of being watched and pulled came again, and the invisible pressure pressed Li Feng, making him feel very bad.
After taking a few deep breaths, Li Feng calmed down.
Then he began to think carefully about the feeling when he heard the whisper just now.
Fortunately, that existence still had no malice.
Slightly relieved, Li Feng looked forward.
It seems that the person who fell into the water was the key to his inexplicable walk to the dock area this time and heard the whisper again.
Without thinking any more, Li Feng walked over quickly.
Almost everyone who lives at the dock can swim.
In just a short while, the person who fell into the water was fished out.
However, after being fished out, everyone was shocked.
Because it was no longer a living person, but a swollen female corpse.
Seeing this, Li Feng pushed aside the crowd and walked closer.
Because the female corpse was swollen by the sea water, her face was blurred.
But the dark professional dress she wore and the water ripple brooch she wore made Li Feng recognize her at a glance.
This special water ripple brooch was worn by the employees of the Extraordinary Materials Trading Market.
Could it be that Li Feng suddenly had an idea in his mind.
However, at this moment, a middle-aged female voice suddenly sounded in the crowd:
"Ah! She seems to be Susan from the Extraordinary Materials Trading Market!"
"No way, Mrs. Mei, you can recognize this?"
There was a question in the crowd, and Li Feng also looked in the direction of the voice.
However, Mrs. Mei said:
"I know Susan. She has a mole at the corner of her eye. She once asked me to help her find a way to remove it.
But the mole is a bit big. I said it would take time. She was quite anxious and asked me if there was a quick way. She was angry with me.
You said it's a mole. How can it be done quickly? Don't you have to take time? What's more, her mole is a circle bigger than ordinary moles..."
Mrs. Mei seemed to be getting off topic.
But Li Feng looked at it according to her words. Sure enough, there was a mole at the right corner of the female corpse's eye.
Even though it was blurred due to swelling, it was still recognizable.
Susan...is dead?
