While waiting for the next ten days, Tong Su prepared to go to the ship to make a deal with the merchants. She went out to find someone, asked for the location of the exchange, and went there with the dagger and short knife she had prepared.
The exchange was set up like a bar, with tall counters for buying and selling goods, and booths next to it filled with passengers who came to relax. Some browsed the information on the big screen, while others discussed commodity prices privately, joking and cursing, with the air thick with the smell of alcohol.
Tong Su was wearing a sporty outfit that allowed her to move around easily. Although the clothes were loose, they made her look even slimmer, with longer legs and fairer skin.
As soon as she stepped into the exchange, she was met with laughter and jeers. Several vulgar men raised their glasses and whistled at her.
"Beautiful lady, would you like a drink?"
"Hey beautiful, what are you planning to buy? Call me 'brother,' and I'll buy it for you!"
"Hey boss, get me a drink, I want to treat this beautiful lady to a meal..."
Most of the people in this place are people who live a life of danger and bloodshed; few of them have any morals. There are few women on the boat, and those who are truly capable turn a blind eye to them. Only those who are incompetent and just mess around stare at Tongsu with dirty eyes and laugh.
But he only laughed and joked, not daring to actually get up and go forward.
After all, the exchange is considered part of the merchant ships' sphere of influence. If they don't want to be abandoned halfway through the journey, they can't cause trouble here.
If you want to settle personal scores or do something illegal, you have to wait until no one is around.
Xuan Ting floated beside her, glanced around, his killing intent deepening, but his face remained impassive as he said, "The ground is smoky and polluted. Let's wait until we get to the transit station to sell them. Let's go back first."
Tong Su said, "It's alright. I'll just exchange some money to buy some things and check on the situation on the ship."
Xuan Ting did not stop them, but his gaze swept over those with ill intentions like a knife.
With his sword here, if they dare to make a move, he can still kill people even without a body!
Suddenly, everyone trembled, feeling a chilling killing intent wash over them. They looked around warily, no longer able to keep their eyes on Tong Su.
Their hair stood on end, yet they had no idea where this murderous intent came from. Some with high mental strength were even more alarmed.
—This is clearly a warning from a powerful individual with extremely strong mental strength!
Are there really such powerful people on the ship?
Why did he issue a warning, and what was he warning about?
No one suspected Tong Su. Although the girl who came in was beautiful, several figures in a corner of the exchange hurriedly left, looking for someone who could make decisions.
Tong Su ignored the crowd and walked to the purchasing counter: "Miss, I would like to sell a few weapons."
The young woman in charge of reception at the station was laughing and having a video call with someone when she heard Tong Su's voice. She frowned and reluctantly put the video communicator on the table.
"What? Selling things? Fine, give them to me. Let me see—wait, it's you? That good-for-nothing Yang An'an who picks up trash!"
Upon looking up and seeing Tong Su's appearance clearly, she immediately cried out in a loud and surprised voice, so much so that she lost her grip on the communicator and dropped it to the ground.
The scream was so loud that it attracted the attention of everyone in the trading hall.
The receptionist realized her rudeness and nodded apologetically to the others, but when she turned to look at Tongsu, her expression immediately turned mocking and malicious.
"Why aren't you staying put on E976-INE86? What are you doing on this merchant ship? You managed to scrape together the fare of ten thousand? How did you manage to do that? Did you promise Lu Wu something?"
The girl, Tong Su, looked familiar. She stared at her closely for a moment before suddenly remembering her.
This is Geraldine, the original owner's neighbor on E976-INE86!
