Chapter 196

~7 min read 1,379 words

Qiao Sang walked out of the shop with the repaired phone.

Considering that people with social anxiety all suffer from mild nomophobia, she didn't wait until tomorrow but went straight back to school to deliver the phone to Jin Jin Feifan.

This repair and delivery caused Qiao Sang to get home an hour later than usual.

Entering the residential area, just as she reached the corner, she saw two men in black suits wandering around her door, occasionally peeking into the house.

These two men stood straight, looking just like two bodyguards.

Qiao Sang's first thought was: It's midsummer, aren't they hot dressed like that...

Although there were two strangers appearing at her door, Qiao Sang didn't take it to heart.

Although Tianjing Garden is not the residential area with the highest housing prices in Hanggang City, it is still considered a wealthy area, with a perfect security system and security guards on duty 24 hours a day. Outsiders cannot enter without registration.

Just then, she saw a little fat pigeon fly out of her courtyard.

"Wait!" Qiao Sang immediately patted Like Ya Bao's back, letting it stop.

"Ya."

Like Ya Bao also noticed the two humans not far ahead.

Qiao Sang stood frozen on Like Ya Bao's back, only to see the little fat pigeon that flew out of her courtyard stop on the shoulder of one of the men in black suits and shake its head.

Damn! Illegal trespassing!

For a moment, n news stories she had read before appeared in Qiao Sang's mind.

【Single woman encounters stranger sneaking into her room】

【Single woman in Liaocheng finds a strange man hiding under her bed; the other party laughs instead of fleeing】

【27-year-old single woman packed into a suitcase and dumped】

【Advising all single women not to pick up strange pet beasts and bring them home; the other party is actually...】

The last news story was something she saw on her phone not long ago. Some people take advantage of women's soft hearts, letting their pet beasts act pitiful to be picked up and brought home, and then determine whether the other party is living alone through the pet beast to see if it's easy to make a move.

It can be said to be very despicable.

Qiao Sang pondered. She is female and lives alone. It's not that she's narcissistic, but although she hasn't fully developed yet, her face is pretty good!

Could it be that she's been targeted?

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang touched her face, and the more she thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case.

"Wait, you guys walk over, look a bit fiercer," Qiao Sang said to Like Ya Bao and Little Xiao Xunbao.

"Ya!"

Like Ya Bao realized something, looked at the two humans in front, nodded, bared its sharp teeth, and immediately changed into a fierce expression.

"Xun~"

The little treasure-hunting ghost's eyes lit up. It took off its ring and took out a portable mirror and pen from inside, applying makeup to the tic-tac-toe scar on its face in front of the mirror.

Before Qiao Sang could walk over, the thinner one of the two men in black suits seemed to sense something and turned his head to look over here.

The other party was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and said something to the person beside him, and the two walked toward her together.

In an instant, Qiao Sang's whole body tensed up.

Are bad guys this blatant nowadays?!

Should she strike first and just call Like Ya Bao to attack them?

Fortunately, her reason was still there, and she suppressed the urge to beat them up.

There is no substantial evidence now. Even if the nearby surveillance captured the little fat pigeon flying into her house, what if they lied and said they entered by mistake?

After all, it was a pet beast that went in, not a person.

The two men in black suits looked at the Yanling Dog and the treasure-hunting ghost staring fixedly at them and silently stopped two meters away from the girl.

"Hello, are you the resident living in 1705?" the thinner man in black suit asked.

Qiao Sang shook her head: "No."

The two men in black suits were stunned. The two looked at each other, and finally, the thinner man in black suit couldn't help but speak: "But I've seen you entering and leaving room 1705 recently."

Qiao Sang hadn't spoken yet, when the fatter man in black suit turned his head and questioned: "Could you have made a mistake?"

"That's impossible. I remember all the residents in our residential area. She definitely lives in room 1705," the thinner security guard affirmed.

The girl has a Yanling Dog that has been on the news and a treasure-hunting ghost that is not common. Although she just moved in not long ago, how could he remember wrong with such an eye-catching existence.

Our residential area... Qiao Sang heard their conversation and very accurately searched for the keywords.

She couldn't have misunderstood, could she...

"Who are you?" Qiao Sang asked.

"We are the security guards of the residential area. It's like this: the owner of 1707 just reflected to us that their house had two White Glutinous Fruits stolen by a pet beast. That pet beast seems to have run into 1705, so we came to take a look," the thinner security guard explained.

As expected of a high-end residential area, even the security guards are dressed so elegantly...

Fortunately, she held back and didn't make a move just now, otherwise, she would have lost face.

Qiao Sang laughed awkwardly twice: "Haha, is that so? I just came back from outside. Do you want to go in and take a look now?"

"Didn't you say you weren't the resident living in 1705?" the fatter security guard frowned.

Qiao Sang said shamelessly: "I'm just a tenant. I thought you were asking about the owner."

The fatter security guard's face darkened. Just as he wanted to say something, his gaze met the Yanling Dog baring its teeth at him, and he instantly swallowed the words he wanted to say.

"Then let's go in and take a look," the fatter security guard turned to the thinner security guard beside him and said.

When he said this, his eyes lit up, looking like he wanted to leave immediately.

Qiao Sang watched his reaction from the side, her eyes narrowing.

"What are you looking at? Others just came back," the thinner security guard scolded, then turned to Qiao Sang and said embarrassedly: "He just came, he doesn't know better. We were also worried that some wild pet beast had broken in, so we just let the little fat pigeon fly in to take a look."

"You weren't here, it's fine if you're okay. If you find a wild pet beast, just contact us."

He muttered to himself in his heart, what a joke, they are security guards, not police.

For two White Glutinous Fruits, searching the house of a Beast Tamer who looks like they can't be offended—what if they get held a grudge against?

This newcomer's brain really isn't clear.

The fatter security guard was anxious when he heard this and said: "But..."

Before he could finish, Qiao Sang interrupted him: "Was the pet beast that stole the White Glutinous Fruits captured on camera?"

The thinner security guard was stunned: "We don't know what kind of pet beast it is, we only know it's a blue one."

Qiao Sang asked: "Is the surveillance unclear?"

"The surveillance didn't capture it," the thinner security guard said embarrassedly.

"Oh?" Qiao Sang raised an eyebrow: "Then how did you determine that the pet beast that stole the White Glutinous Fruits ran into 1705?"

The fatter security guard stood out: "I saw it. I saw it run in."

Qiao Sang listened to his words and asked with a smile: "Where is this uncle from? The accent seems a bit different from ours."

"He is from the Ancient Fog region," the thinner security guard snatched the words: "He just came the day before yesterday."

Ancient Fog region... Qiao Sang instantly associated it with the Water Luana that also came from the Ancient Fog region.

What a coincidence...
