Chapter 64 The Relic Fortune Teller’s Letter Opener (seek to follow up, seek collection)
“Although you are wearing a priest’s uniform, what documents do you have? You can’t say that you are from the ring of the earth to investigate, so I will believe you. You have to show some evidence. There are too many liars these days.”
Residence at No. 19 Luoxia Bay.
After Li Feng explained his purpose of coming, the chubby landlord started chattering and asked Li Feng to prove his identity.
Otherwise, it will never match his appearance.
Seeing this, Li Feng didn’t say anything else.
He directly showed the temporary certificate that Kestrel gave him.
The landlord took the certificate and turned it over and over, looking left and right.
After confirming it for a long time, he returned it to Li Feng, and at the same time, a smile appeared on his wrinkled face.
He enthusiastically invited Li Feng to the first floor of this house.
“Hey, all I know is that renting a house to foreigners will always lead to troubles of one kind or another. I really don’t want to rent it to them.”
Although the landlord said so, he took out a very thick ledger in his hand.
Li Feng glanced at it, it was the tenant’s information.
It seems that they say they don’t want to rent, but they have been doing the business of tenants.
“I knew that one day, those guys would cause trouble and let someone big like you come to me, so…”
The landlord said this with a flattering smile on his face, and patted his big ledger as if asking for credit, and said somewhat mysteriously:
“So, as long as you have rented a house with me, I will record all their information, every move, what kind of occupation they have had, and what kind of friends they have been here. I’m waiting for a big man like you to check it out! “
Li Feng couldn’t help frowning when he heard this.
Then I saw the landlord start to look through his thick ledger.
“Susan, she came here for the first time on June 1st, and she rented a cubicle with a bathroom on the third floor.”
The landlord began to read the contents of his ledger.
“But she only lived here for more than a month, and on July 3rd she suddenly told me that she was going to check out.
She also asked for the deposit back, but this month has already passed 3 days, how can I refund her the deposit?
According to the contract, she must tell me about the check-out on June 30th. She violated the contract, and I definitely cannot return the deposit to her. This will affect my continued renting of the house!
Do you know…”
The chunky landlord spoke more and more vigorously, his voice raised a lot, as if he had been greatly wronged, and wanted Li Feng to complain for him:
“At that time, I refused to refund this woman’s deposit, and she was not happy, and even had a big fight with me.
But I came here according to the contract!
These young people from other places don’t know any rules. It’s fine when they were in the country, but when they come to Wind’s Rest, they have to abide by the rules of Wind’s Rest. Dealing with such people really makes me feel embarrassed. “
Even though he has met all kinds of people, Li Feng still feels uncomfortable after hearing what the landlord said.
But according to the landlord’s records, Susan checked out the house on July 3, which is another clue that does not match the date of her death.
Not wanting to listen to the landlord’s nagging, Li Feng immediately stood up and said that he would go to the cubicle on the third floor rented by Susan.
The chubby landlord shut up, then stood up and led Li Feng with a flattering smile.
In the narrow and dark wooden stairwell, Li Feng followed the landlord up the stairs.
The landlord walked very slowly on crutches due to a leg injury, and Li Feng didn’t want to ask. He just took the opportunity to observe the house.
This is a small three-story building, and the landlord lives on the first floor.
On the second and third floors, he separated many small rooms and rented them out.
Li Feng observed carefully, but found nothing abnormal.
“It’s here, it’s here.”
Finally, Li Feng followed the landlord to the third floor.
This is a very small room, only a bed and a table can fit.
But the advantage is that it comes with a separate washroom.
As a single woman, it is reasonable to pay a little more to rent a room with a separate bathroom.
Li Feng checked back and forth in this small room. He found that the room was very clean, so he asked casually:
“Have you cleaned this room since Susan left?”
In order to get a better price next time, the landlord will usually tidy up the room after the tenant leaves.
“Oh no, Susan packed it herself.”
Short and fat landlord said:
“She took all her things away, not even a teacup and a washbasin for me.”
Listening to what the landlord said, Li Feng couldn’t help but cast a glance at him.
“Oh yeah! Did you know that? Susan’s been using a ridiculous amount of water this month, and by God’s sake, how can she use so much water?
And she was caught by me, so she didn’t have the nerve to entangle me about the deposit. “
The landlord was a little complacent when he said this.
Li Feng heard the crux of the problem, and he asked:
“How much water did Susan use?”
“A lot, a lot, a lot!”
The landlord said firmly:
“She uses more than our entire building, and I’m listening at the plumbing!”
Li Feng nodded after hearing this, and made a note of it.
After that, he checked the room again, and there was nothing special about it, so he told the landlord that he was going to leave.
However, when they went downstairs, Li Feng looked at the landlord’s injured leg and decided to ask:
“What happened to your leg?”
“Oh this one!”
When asked about the injury, the landlord smiled all over his face:
“I fell when I was going down the stairs before. I broke a hole and festered again.”
“Is it after Susan checked out?”
Li Feng asked.
“Ah yes! That’s right, a day or two after she checked out.
But I bought the medicine for festering, and it will arrive today. “
The landlord thought for a while and said, and then he muttered to himself in a low voice:
“One bottle costs one month’s rent, and there is no deposit left for Susan.”
Following the creaking sound of the wooden stairs, Li Feng and the landlord returned to the first floor.
Afterwards, Li Feng read Susan’s rental records in detail.
According to landlord’s records.
Susan’s job is an employee of the extraordinary material trading market.
During the one month and three days she rented, no one came to visit her, and she never brought anyone back.
After collecting no useful records, Li Feng left.
He returned to the criss-crossing streets of the Docklands, where the soldiers from Storm’s End were still hunting rats.
This turned the originally lively street into chaos.
The man’s scolding, and the woman’s screaming, one after another.
Li Feng found a secluded place, and took out the relic from his backpack—the fortune teller’s letter opener.
The last time he used this relic to divine whether he went out to sea to hunt extraordinary creatures, the conclusion given to him by the letter opener was—
Being inland, how do you know the cloud tomorrow at sea?
At that time, Li Feng thought that this thing doesn’t speak human language, and it can’t divination.
But now it seems that this letter opener is really accurate in divination.
Because the devil came ashore, all the docks were blocked, so Li Feng has no chance to board the hunting boat recently.
And he does not intend to fuse the secret treasure flint by hunting extraordinary creatures.
So, “If you are inland, how can you know the cloudy clouds tomorrow at sea?” The result of this divination is indeed very accurate.
Li Feng sat down on a stone platform by a pool while thinking.
Then he took out the pen and paper, put the paper on his lap, and wrote on the paper with the pen:
“What did Susan do after checking out?”
Susan’s life trajectory does not match her death date.
So now, Li Feng has some doubts that the female corpse is not Susan.
But the clues were broken, so Li Feng had no choice but to use the relic of the letter opener to divination.
After writing the content of the letter, Li Feng folded the paper and wrote his own name on the cover as the recipient.
There was no wax here, so Li Feng dipped his finger in some pool water to seal the envelope.
Then he took out the fortune teller’s letter opener and cut a bit of his finger.
Let the blade **** a drop of his own blood as the price.
The next moment.
The blade of the letter opener turned slightly bloody, and Li Feng began to open the letter.
After unfolding the paper, the question he had originally written had disappeared.
Replaced by a beautiful cursive—
Killing that mean and mean guy, of course.
