"That makes it harder to check. What about work-related information?"
Yue Jiuling approached the hidden figure and asked, "They should have jobs in the human world, right?"
"Yes, there are. Wolfhound is a deliveryman, Spider is a factory worker, Snake Demon runs a pork stall in the market, and Fox works as a receptionist in a company."
After finishing speaking, Yinni took out his phone and took a picture of the document booklet. He said, "Their work addresses are all here. Go and take a look at their work addresses. I've sent the photo to the group."
"Well, their colleagues probably don't even know they're dead yet."
Ye Dongfeng looked at the address on his phone and led Mu Xiaoyi downstairs: "Let's go check out the vixen's company first~"
"Let's go check with the courier company then."
Bai Xinyu also spoke to Yinni.
Hidden had already stood up from his chair. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
Seeing that everyone had set off, Yue Jiuling said to Ya Zi, "Young Master Long, shall we go too?"
"Okay, let's go, Little Cabbage. You keep an eye on the test results, and send them to us in the group chat when they come out."
Ya Zi gave Xiao Baicai a few words of advice and then left.
Yue Jiuling was going to a vegetable market because the snake demon ran a pork stall there and sold pork himself.
When Yue Jiuling arrived at the market, it was already evening. There were many people buying vegetables at the market at this time. At the entrance of the meat market, Yue Jiuling saw many people buying meat. Some of them were buying chicken, duck, and fish, but there were many more people buying pork than other meats.
"Excuse me, sir/madam, do you know this person?"
After confirming that the market was indeed the address written in the document, Yue Jiuling took the snake demon's humanoid photo and went to ask the butchers about it.
The first person she asked was a butcher. He had initially seen Yue Jiuling and greeted her warmly, offering her pork. However, after hearing she was looking for someone, he glanced at the photo, shook his head, and said, "This person? I don't recognize her. So many people come and go here, how could I possibly remember them all?"
"No, he also sells pork here, just like you guys."
Yue Jiuling pointed at the photo and said, "You're in the same industry, don't you really recognize each other?"
"They sell pork too, huh? Let me see... um, I still don't remember."
The shopkeeper still claimed not to know the snake demon. He said, "What do you want with him? Selling pork? My meat is delicious too, why don't you buy some and try it?"
Hearing the shopkeeper still trying to sell his meat, Yue Jiuling glanced at his expression and, confirming that he wasn't lying, could only smile and say, "Oh, it's alright, it's fine if you don't recognize me. I'm not here to buy pork, thank you."
Yue Jiuling left the stall and went to the next one. The second stall was similar to the first one. They assumed Yue Jiuling was there to buy meat and didn't recognize the snake demon.
Yue Jiuling asked many vendors at the market's meat stalls, only to find that none of them recognized the snake demon. After asking so many questions, she began to doubt if she had gone to the wrong address. Fortunately, she managed to get some information from an older fishmonger.
"Hey, you're looking for this guy? He stopped selling pork here a long time ago."
The woman, who was in her forties, was holding a large crucian carp in one hand, deftly cleaning and scaling it. She saw the photo in Yue Jiuling's hand and said, "I know this person. He used to sell pork in this market. He used to have a stall right across from mine, but he stopped a few months ago. He transferred the pawnshop and I don't know where he went."
"Oh, he quit? Do you know where he went after that?"
Yue Jiuling continued to press the old lady for answers.
"How would I know? We're not that close. We don't usually greet each other when we meet. If I weren't sitting right across from him, I probably wouldn't have recognized him."
The older woman shook her head and asked Yue Jiuling with a hint of gossip, "So, what do you want with him? What's your relationship with him?"
"Well, how should I put it? We're friends, but he's recently gone missing and we can't find him. Could you tell me what you know about him?"
Yue Jiuling didn't know whether she should tell the old lady that the snake demon was dead, so she had to make up an excuse.
