The woman repeated the story of what had happened just now."I don't know her..."
After Cao Yikai learned what had happened, he hesitated, but he didn't think about it too much.
It was difficult for ordinary people to believe in such things.
He thought of something, and he turned back toward where he had chased the man.
He caught him, but after scanning him, the detector didn't show any powers.
But when he was in the mall, he had used the power of sonic explosion.
They were in charge of such matters, but this monster made them feel like something was wrong.
***
Qiao Jin had a rewarding day, so she didn't rush to return home at noon, instead finding a fast-food restaurant for lunch.
She wasn't too picky about what she ate as long it filled her stomach.
After eating, she walked out of the fast-food restaurant. There was a sneaky shadow following her.
The corners of her lips lifted in a smirk, and following the person's wishes, she deliberately walked towards a remote area. When she walked to the back of the building, the person couldn't help but step forward to grab Qiao Jin by her hair.
Qiao Jin now had shoulder-length hair, and feeling his grasp, she immediately turned her head.
It was a familiar face.
His hair was shaved to a buzz-cut, and his body was covered in tattoos. But his facial features were delicate in contrast, and he had studs in his ears.
His name was Gao Shengke, and he was a little puppy dog who followed Tan Xuejia.
Figuratively, he was a licking dog. Tan Xuejia treated him like dirt, yet he still sucked up to her.
At this moment, he gazed at Qiao Jin with misery on his face. When he saw Qiao Jin suddenly turn her head, he was caught off guard for a moment. Then his face filled with hatred."Does Xuejia's death have something to do with you?"
Tan Xuejia had died suddenly, and there were no clues as to who the murderer was.
Not only did the police want to catch the murderer, but Tan Xuejia's little dog did as well.
Gao Shengke didn't have any clues. He only remembered that Tan Xuejia and Qiao Jin had been relatively close during her lifetime. Because of the drug incident, Tan Xuejia had said that Qiao Jin probably hated her, so it seemed that Qiao Jin had a motive for murdering Tan Xuejia.
So Gao Shengke had come to Qiao Jin directly.
He thought that even if it wasn't Qiao Jin's doing, Qiao Jin had probably hired someone to do it.
Qiao Jin sized up Gao Shengke."Why do you say that, when you seem far more suspicious?"
Qiao Jin had been taken by Tan Xuejia to meet Gao Shengke several times, so they knew each other.
Gao Shengke had never liked high maintenance rich girls like her, and he appeared even more hostile and intimidating right now."You were discharged from the hospital so quickly, yet Xuejia died. She was stabbed fifty-two times in cold blood! How cruel of you!"
Qiao Jin shook her finger at him."This is a lawful society. You must show evidence before accusing me. Moreover, I advise you not to blame me; otherwise, you will face consequences."
"Consequences? Xuejia was so kind to you, but she died, and you didn't even go see her!"
Gao Shengke had obviously lost his sense of reason. Qiao Jin sighed."They say that I am mentally insane, but I think that it is people like you who should go to the hospital for a mental examination. Tan Xuejia caused my drug addiction, and I haven't even held her accountable for it. Now she's died before I can, so it's insufferable to hear you say that she was kind to me."
Gao Shengke didn't buy Qiao Jin's excuses at all. Instead, he became even more infuriated. He reached out and grabbed Qiao Jin's hair to drag her away.
In the face of such aggression, Qiao Jin no longer showed any mercy.
In an instant, she flipped her wrist, and grabbing Gao Shengke by the shoulder, she threw him directly to the ground with an over-shoulder throw.
