Dragon and Phoenix
Chapter 14: Two People


After purchasing the medicine, Cio San came out. His eyes unintentionally saw two people standing chatting not far from the door of the drugstore. “Hmmm, I saw these two guys at the dock, and also later at the stall earlier. They broke into the stall shortly after I.”


There was a suspicious feeling in Cio San's heart. His experience so far, since childhood he and his family were chased by people, then the incident in Bu Tong-san, made Cio San more alert


“Are these two people following me?” ask in the heart. Cio San decided to test it out.


He walks in a relaxed manner. From his sharp feelings, he knew, the two people were walking behind him. Cio San quickened his pace, while pretending to look at the crowd. The two people behind him walked quickly. He turned into an alley. Then before the two people turned, he was as fast as lightning using his body's lightness.


“Are the gentlemen looking for cayhe (me)?” cio San asked with a smile.


They are shocked, but can keep the prestige. “True, we're looking for you. We are members of Hai Liong Pang. We suspect you stole something at the dock. Please follow us to the headquarters for search.”


“Alright,” said Cio San with a smile.


Both men smiled, perhaps in their minds, it was easy to conquer this man. Without having to fight. But before their smiles disappeared, they knew their bodies had been tainted.


“Quickly you confess! What do you mean exactly? It is clear you are not Hai Liong Pang,” stressed Cio San.


“We are really Hai Liong Pang people. View our member sign belts. Do you dare mess with us? Know, our society controls this whole city. You won't be able to mess with us!” said one.


“If I am indeed accused of stealing, why do you bother stalking me? You guys could've caught me while I was at the stall, right?” cio San hatch.


“Eh.eh.. We have to make sure first.. Is it true that you are the one we are looking for,” replied one.


Cio San smiled, that was clearly a far-fetched answer. He asked again, “You two ‘kan member of the largest association here, why not just memorize the road? You don't even know that this alley is dead end, do you?”


We..we.”


Not finished talking, their eyes bulged and their bodies twitched. Cio San was shocked and understood that someone had attacked the two people. He swiftly jumped in the direction of the sound. Probably from the roof behind the two men. But once on the roof, there was no one there.


“Someone killed them. He can't be on this roof, because I know. Most likely, he was across the street, on the roof of another house close to the market. The science of throwing Am Gi (secret weapon) is great. From that distance, he could throw exactly,” thought Cio San.


He examined the bodies of the two men. But he shuddered in horror. It turned out that the bodies of the two people had already been charred blackened. Cio San regretted not being able to save them.


“I should have been more vigilant. I heard Am Gi's throws, but I didn't react quickly. I thought it was just a voice coming from the market. Cio San, you need to be more alert and smart!” he said to himself.


“These two people must be a man. They were killed to cover the tracks. They were definitely not members of Hai Liong Pang and were simply disguised. But how can they follow in my footsteps? Every time I move fast and disappear, they will be able to find my tracks. Does any part of my body leave traces?


Is my body odor? Or the footprints? Body odor is clearly impossible, because in this crowded area, it is very difficult to distinguish body odor. Footprints are difficult, because this area is also crowded with footprints of people..”.


He thinks hard. Then he took off his shoes and looked at the bottom of the sole of his shoe. There were two small pieces of wood there. If used, the two small woods mark a small mark on the ground. It is small, but it is clear to those who want to pay attention.


“That farmer's grandfather…. He gave me the shoes…. Her.. Dia..” Cio San was shocked.


The world is foreign to him.


It was strange for him, but it also made sense. First of all, the farmer's grandfather must have given him a shoe that had a trace marker on his foot. After that, he could have sent a message to his people at the dock. Maybe with a pigeon. Because it's the only way to get the message across quickly and precisely, without suspicion.


After receiving the message, the two members stalked him. The characteristics have been discovered. Just follow the footprints of his shoes. But why follow him? He has no treasure. It has no heirloom anything that can be contested. The only possibility that makes the most sense is!


But how did that grandpa know??? There are no suspicious signs of Cio San. How could this grandfather know, that he was Bu Tong-pay's buronoan who was also the target of the Kang Ouw. Then if the old man knew, why didn't he catch him in the first place? He even told people to follow him.


Cio San's brain was thinking hard. It doesn't feel like he's shuddering either. Kang Ouw's world is full of intrigue, mystery, and secrets that he does not understand. He decided to take a break at an inn nearby.


“Tonight, I may not be able to sleep, and should drain my mind. From now on, my life will probably always be ‘ramai’. There is no time for free living. These secrets must be solved. My life, from now on, will never be quiet. There will be secret killings, there will be stalking, there will be many things. Be alert and alert! That's all I can do.”


It's now in bed. Turn your brain hard on what just happened.
