Chapter 1108: Chapter 845: Pantian City (Two in One)_2

The scene before them was clearly caused by Ice Skills.

But if the items were frozen in place, shouldn’t they have fallen to the ground?

Why were the Bubble Ghost and Shadow Balls still suspended mid-air?

What kind of skill is this?

It’s got such an insanely cool effect?

Does Miss Qiao even have such a powerful Ice-Type Pet Beast with her?

A flurry of chaotic thoughts flashed through the staff’s mind.

What exactly is this Pet Beast… Suddenly, he thought of something and turned to look at the backpack behind Qiao Sang.

At the moment he glanced at the backpack, the Bubble Ghost dropped to the ground, and the three Shadow Balls shattered with a bang.

“It’s resolved. Call the police.” Qiao Sang said calmly.

“A-Alright…” The staff quickly withdrew his gaze, took out his phone, and dialed the police.

An alligator-like Pet Beast looked on with pure admiration.

The police weren’t particularly quick at solving cases, but their dispatch speed wasn’t bad. It didn’t take long for them to arrive and arrest both the Bubble Ghost and its Beast Tamer.

…

“Name.”

“Qiao Sang.”

“Age.”

“17.”

“Why were you at the warehouse?”

“I’m participating in the regional competition, and the examiner from Changqing City gave me an examination task to catch the thief stealing items from the warehouse. That’s why I was there.” Qiao Sang answered briefly and to the point.

The officer recording her statement suddenly looked up, his expression stunned.

It couldn’t be helped. The girl in front of him looked far too young, not at all like someone eligible to join a regional competition.

Qiao Sang immediately remembered something and added:

“Before I went to the warehouse, I called an Officer Li from your department. The examiner said he’s the one handling this case and could vouch for me.”

After a pause, she supplemented:

“Originally, I wanted to ask him about the case and invite him to come with me, but unfortunately, he mentioned he was about to get off work.”

Officer Li… Isn’t that you? The recording officer shifted his gaze to the officer conducting the questioning.

Don’t look at me. If I’d known I’d have to work overtime to wrap up this case tonight, I definitely wouldn’t have hung up so quickly earlier… Officer Li coughed lightly, pretending it wasn’t him, and continued his questioning:

“How did you know the Bubble Ghost was the thief?”

Qiao Sang sat comfortably in the chair, answering the questions with ease, as if she were at home.

At some point, the questioning officer even brought her a cup of tea.

The questioning soon ended, and Qiao Sang walked out of the questioning room.

Officer Li followed shortly after, and after holding back for a while, he finally came forward and said, “Actually, I’m the Officer Li handling this case.”

Qiao Sang glanced at him and said, “I know.”

Officer Li: “???”

“The information provided by the examiner included not just your contact details but also your photo.” Qiao Sang continued.

Officer Li: “…”

Officer Li’s expression stiffened. After a few seconds of silence, he finally said, “I apologize for that, but still, thank you for helping us catch the thief. Just now, the Bubble Ghost’s Beast Tamer confessed. He admitted he commanded the Bubble Ghost to commit the thefts.”

Qiao Sang’s curiosity was piqued. She asked, “Why did he steal? I heard from the staff over there that the items in the warehouse were all defective and supposed to be useless.”

“It was to feed the Bubble Ghost energy.” Officer Li explained, “Though those items were flawed, many still contained energy. The missing items each had varying levels of absorbable energy that Pet Beasts could use. Since he couldn’t afford energy-rich food for the Bubble Ghost, he resorted to this method.”

…

This examination task was way too easy. If the upcoming tasks were all at this level, she figured she could finish all the examination tasks across the eleven prefecture-level cities within one or two months… As Qiao Sang reflected on this, she left the police station and climbed onto an enlarged Yaobao, saying, “Let’s head back to the Beast Taming Center.”

“Xun Xun…”

At this moment, Little Treasure Hunter appeared, staring at its Beast Tamer with a plaintive expression as it softly cried out.

Qiao Sang immediately understood. Patting Yaobao’s fur, she amended, “But before that, let’s go shopping and get Little Treasure Hunter some hair accessories.”

“Xun Xun~”

Little Treasure Hunter’s pitiful expression melted away. It floated beside its Beast Tamer, happily nuzzling its head.

“Yaa!”

Yaobao let out a call and began running into the sky.

…

11:01 PM.

Beast Taming Center.

Residential district.

Room 1108.

Qiao Sang entered using her Beast Taming Badge as a keycard.

At the same time, Mikaela in the adjacent room perked up after hearing the sound. Her ears twitched as she got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked over to Room 1108 to knock on the door.

“Who is it?”

“It’s me.”
