“Sonic attack?”
He was a junior-level wizard alright, but he was also demonized.
The corners of Qiao Jin’s mouth lifted in a smile. He was unskilled and probably hadn’t had his powers for more than a week.
He’d probably experienced much moral conflict before robbing the jewelry store.
A plate of broken glass would surely cause the people in the mall to panic, and most people were still a little dumbfounded.
The man suddenly roared several times in succession, and his voice got louder each time. The glass doors at the entrances of several stores shattered into pieces.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Shards of glass shattered all over the place, and the shopping mall fell into chaos.
Everyone had reacted by now. They started screaming and running out of the building.
Those in the jewelry store were even more frightened. The man turned around, and the glass counters in the jewelry store shattered. He collected dozens of pieces of gold jewelry all at once and put them into his pocket. Then, he turned around and ran out towards the emergency exit.
All the staff in the other stores had already run out because of the crisis, so there was no one to stop him.
Just as Qiao Jin was about to chase after him, a wind-like figure suddenly blew past her.
She heard someone reporting in a very low voice.
“I can confirm that a new monster has appeared on the first floor of the Pu Ming Department Store. It used the power of sonic explosion to rob a jewelry store, and it has escaped…”
A muscular man in a T-shirt chased after the thief, running towards the emergency exit.
Everyone else was frightened and running away, so his behavior seemed quite bizarre.
Somewhat intrigued, Qiao Jin stopped in her tracks.
It seemed that there were formal agencies dedicated to arresting these creatures.
But unfortunately, she’d seen the monster, and she needed it.
Of course she couldn’t follow it directly now. After thinking about it for a moment, Qiao Jin lowered her head. Some pieces of broken glass were at her feet.
She bent down and picked up the glass. Her action was seemingly random, but several red dots appeared in her pupils. She kicked the broken glass with her foot and placed it on the corresponding positions according to the red dots. In an instant, she felt a breeze that no one could feel. The breeze made the broken glass rotate slightly on the ground.
When she finished, Qiao Jin looked in the direction pointed by a piece of broken glass.
East gate.
Tong Tian Pedestrian Bridge.
She walked in the corresponding direction without hesitation.
As she walked, she took out her phone, and as if it were following her movements, the phone rang.
She picked up, and without waiting for the other person to speak, she said directly: “I gave you a hint and did what I had to do.”
Huo Ling was dumbfounded.
She didn’t dare call her until she got this phone number, but Qiao Jin had spoken these words without any hesitation at all, meaning that she’d known Huo Ling would call.
Would someone of Qiao Jin’s status even remember the phone number of a random young nurse?
She immediately understood that Qiao Jin knew everything.
This realization quickly overturned all the doubts she had inside, and she broke down, bursting into tears. “It’s me… it’s my fault. Is there no chance now? Miss Qiao, is there any hope for my brother’s legs?””
Qiao Jin’s voice did not have the slightest pity. “This is all karma, so this is your brother’s destiny. I gave you a hint simply because I got something I wanted from you, and that was the reward I gave you. If you had gone back, there was a chance to prevent your brother from having the accident. It wasn’t predestined since it depended on your choice, but now his fate is sealed. There’s no use crying over spilled milk. I am hanging up now because I have other business to attend to.”
She hung up the phone, and her eyes appeared apathetic as she continued to move towards her target.
