章節 69: First Spar (1)

There was a man lying on the ground, dead.

"Yeah. He had been murdered this morning. Poor man."

"I heard he was in enormous debt. Could this be the reason he was killed?"

A large crowd of curious onlookers gathered at the victim's house, making it difficult for the police to do their work.

"We want to be safe!"
