"This is where... the item you're searching for is." Gong Jin spoke politely, wheezing through his words due to the pain. "Please, don't kill me. I have followed your order."
He lost too much blood, and his leg was barely able to support him. He couldn't even walk properly, making it look like he was dragging his body forward.
'Shit, shit, shit.'
He knew he wouldn't survive if he didn't take care of his wound soon. And to do that, he had to satisfy the harmless-looking but crazy merchant in front of him.
Pushing the door open, he invited Leo and Jessica to enter.
"I... have never bothered to hide it. The item is there, on the table. Take it and leave me alone. Please, don't hurt me anymore."
"Hmm, so, this is the item, huh?"
Leo approached the table and picked up a small box. He opened it and found a ring inside.
