episode 35: fraudsters selling counterfeit drugs

"When I began to surrender to my daughter's health condition, came Miss Su Luxie who reached out her hand to help me."

"In the dark of the black market, I staggered in the rain just to find something that could cure the rare pain my daughter was suffering from."

"I've searched here and there, but nothing! I could only sit in the dark crying in my daughter's condition."

"I think in the dark something dangerous will arise, but who would have thought?! From the front a bright light began to approach me."

"I thought it was an angel. However, it turned out that it was Miss Su Luxie who came with her umbrella. He came up to me and then reached out to me."

"Doubtfully I took that helping hand and then followed everything he told me. I felt like I was hypnotized by him at the time."

"But at that moment I began to realize, I could see my daughter's condition was improving as usual."

"I started crying at that moment. I am truly grateful and indebted. At that time, my daughter and I were committed to serving Miss Su Luxie."

"Even now, I'm still devoting myself to him."

Teacher Lim made his mind from the bottom of his heart. With that smile of hers, she saw Su An'yang and Su Tiao, were lamenting the extremely beautiful flower garden looked at by the eyes.

He was so happy, because he could serve the family member Su Luxie, the savior lady of his.

While teacher Lim was being preoccupied with accompanying Su An'yang and Su Tiao looking around the academy. On the other hand, Su Luxie was spending time with Merlyn in a strange place.

They were walking in a market center east of Xiao which is very famous in various circles. Back then, the scenery was really very pleasant for Su Luxie.

The atmosphere is crowded, noisy and even lively. Su Luxie certainly liked the atmosphere.

It was different for Merlyn. Merlyn actually looks like she is depressed because of the noise that has disturbed her audience. But what should he do? He thinks he doesn't have to do anything. Quite silent without making the slightest expression.

On the left side was seen the stall of someone who was selling various potions and recovery pill results. Su Luxie's eyes began to be fixed on the stall.

"!" However, it was strange if he looked surprised when he looked at the herbs in front of his eyes.

What the hell is going on? Su Luxie squinted her eyes and stared cynically at the potion seller.

"A con man should just die!" Su Luxie muttered so quietly that perhaps her voice was not heard by anyone.

"*How can anyone sell these fake drugs?! If it's an item, it might be understandable. But, it's medicine!"

"Silly! They want to make someone die with their medicine*!" Benak Su Luxie's.

She looked cynically at the drug dealer, so Merlyn spoke up at Su Luxie's silence.

"What are you thinking, miss? (why is your facial expression like that, who is bothering you?!)" Asked Merlyn in a tone that began to intimidate around.

Su Luxie turned her head still with a look of her upset face.

"No." Answer Su Luxie.

"?!" Merlyn looked confused.

Why did Su Luxie look upset but when asked did not answer? That's what Merlyn thought at the time.

"no? But. You look pissed off." Merlyn was still confused.

Su Luxie turned back to look at Merlyn.

"You can buy all the drugs in there. I was quite bothered to see it!" Su Luxie said in a flat tone of voice as if looking very upset.

"?"

"Are you upset to see someone else selling drugs in front of you? I don't think it's that simple." Merlyn's mind looked at the medicines that Su Luxie had forced.

"All right, miss." The answer.

Dutifully Merlyn started walking towards the stall. As usual, a flat expression she started to pull out a canteen containing a few coins.

SRENGL..

He threw the bag of coins while saying

"5 coins rulex, I want all your drugs." He said with a cold attitude. It looks like a rich man!

"!"

A seller of the herb raised both neutrals tat when he heard someone who would buy the drug with 5 coins rulex? 5 coins rulex?!

The medicine man turned his head alternately between his medicine and Merlyn who was staring coldly at him.

"b, really?" He said in disbelief as he opened his mouth wide.

"Hurry up, I don't have time!" Merlyn said he'd chimed in on the man's bullshit in front of him.

"He wants to keep my lady waiting?! I'll cut off your kidney!" Next membenak.

"Ba, alright!" The man hurriedly began to put all his herbs into a sizable package.

"Hmmm!" Merlyn sneered, staring intently at the medicine man.

The man further sped up the movement as he felt the intimidating air belonging to Merlyn. Well.he was so nervous that his forehead was filled with sweat sweat.

"This is your medicine, miss." He gave all the drugs to Merlyn.

Merlyn snatched the drugs while continuing to stare at the medicine man.

"You look like a fool!" Merlyn said without sorting out the words she wanted to put out for others.

He casually left without even glancing back again.

"?!"

"A, me? Stupid person?" The man looked like a fool who was offended. He looked at Merlyn annoyed but could do nothing. It's like a fool!

Merlyn walked up to Su Luxie without feeling any guilt when she called someone stupid.

With her flat look she spoke

"This is your medicine, miss." His words showed the package of medicine in his hand.

Su Luxie stared for quite a while at the medicines, she touched the medicine by closing her eyes.

"Well, he did make this medicine alone. The fraud that was supposed to be destroyed." Benak Su Luxie shortly while holding the package of medicine in Merlyn's hand.

Merlyn tilted her head, looking at Su Luxie's movements that were quite confusing.

"What's up, miss? You don't look happy." Merlyn began to ask.

"The drugs this man sells are all fake! He's a con man, we got a swindler in front of our eyes." Answer Su Luxie.

"!"

Merlyn growled, she squeezed his hand.

"That damn bastard!" Merlyn.

With her upset emotions, Merlyn wanted to put her foot back on the stall. Yet...

"No. Don't fuck your hands, Merlyn." Said Su Luxie stopping Merlyn's steps.

Merlyn's steps were held in place.

"But, why?" Merlyn asked increasingly cluelessly.

"I already know what I'm going to do," Su Luxie replied smiling sarcastically.

"Let's go." Then take Merlyn away from there.

"But.. okay." With a heavy heart, Merlyn, followed in Su Luxie's footsteps when she was eager to beat up the deceitful man.

While continuing to stare sharply back, he always chattered indistinctly.

"Hahahaha, I'm lucky again." The man muttered while counting his rulex coins.

He looked very satisfied, it looked very clearly expressed on his face. While continuing to count he always chatted if he was great, he was smart and also smart.

"alright. Just get here, I better go home and get back to making my fake potion." He muttered with a big smile while putting his coin canteen in his pocket.

He was overjoyed at that moment, he whistled loudly However, while he was engrossed with the white whistle, he choked on his own saliva

Uhuk..

"Oh, shit!" That is, covering the mouth with the right palm.

"Huh, what is this?" He said again when he felt something cold and thick was on his hands.

When ascertaining what it was, suddenly his two eyelids enlarged when he saw a slightly frozen black blood on his hands.

"!"

"WHAT'S THIS?!" Pekik surprised.

Uhuk..

"Ke, why is my chest se, tight?! Akh... whoever, help me..." Slowly the man's body fell to the ground with blood-stained eyes.

A blood kept flowing from his eyes and nose, he was completely uprooted on the cold, dusty ground.

"Se-se-people, to-lo-ng me..." He began to lose consciousness completely.

As such an incident occurred, people suddenly started swarming around the man.

There were so many people there staring at that poor man. Some feel pity, sadness, fear and even disgust.

It caused a lot of speculation and opinions from the people there.

They immediately reported the incident to the court so that the body of the man could be properly taken care of and cremated.
