After looking around the Red Market, we returned to the place we started from without finding anything.

"I expected it, but... there's no sign related to Li Wei."

"According to the sibling producers, it's been over a few months since he was kidnapped, so there's nothing we can do about it."

Hearing Ha Tae-heon's words, I cleared up my complicated mind. At this point, I really had to accept Edward's offer.

"May I ask the people here one last time? About Producer Li Wei."

"Let's try it."

As Min Ah-rin said, we went in looking for a small shop selling inventory bags. Li Wei was a producer who dealt with space. It was a decision I made because I thought that an inventory producer with the same spatial ability would know more.

"Excuse me."

"Welcome."

When I went inside with Ha Tae-heon, who was holding the wooden door, the store owner rubbed the cigarette he was smoking into an ashtray and turned it off. The smell of cigarettes was no joke.

"I want to ask you something."

The owner, with a thick beard and plump body, looked at me.

"Do you know a producer named Li Wei?"

"Li Wei? Li Wei..."

The owner, who was worried as he scratched his beard with his thick hand, opened his mouth.

"If you're talking about the Li Wei with the ability to control the space, of course, I know. Isn't he a famous producer?"

As expected, he didn't even know that Li Wei was here. I changed the question and asked again.

"So what do you know about the other producers who sold their inventory here? An old producer wearing black round sunglasses."

"Ahem... an old inventory producer."

This time, as if something had come to mind, the owner spoke immediately.

"It reminds me of an old man who works today and tomorrow. As you said, he was an old man with a round, small sunglasses."

At that explanation, I made eye contact with Ha Tae-heon. It perfectly matched Li Wei's appearance, whom I met at the red market in Korea before.

"Can you tell me when was the last time you saw him?"

"Let's see... 3 months? About 4 months ago? I haven't seen him in a long time. If you go into the back of our store and turn left, you will find the old man's store, so go check it out. It has now disappeared cleanly."

The place where Li Wei was before he was kidnapped. It wasn't bad information.

I thanked the owner for being willing to help and left the store, then I told everyone.

"I found out where Producer Li Wei was doing business. We'd better go see it right away."

He was probably pretending to be an ordinary producer, selling inventory bags like he did at the Korean Red Market.

I didn't know how the Praus Cult found out Li Wei's identity, but it was certain that it wasn't easy enough to find and catch the opponent hiding in the red market.

We went deep into the red market and soon arrived at the place the store owner explained to us. But what I saw in front of me was nothing but empty land and there were no other traces to be found.

"It must be here... but, there is nothing."

"Hmm..."

Cheon Sa-yeon, who was touching the corner of his mouth, looking at the ground where Li Wei was supposed to be, opened his mouth.
