"...My family isn’t around here." Even if they were, they wouldn’t have your Human Realm money anyway~
"So what do you suggest we do?"
"Can I... pay you back later when I have the chance?" Wen Xiao’ai bit her lip, not daring to look into the driver’s eyes.
After all, she was in the wrong, having not understood that using this service would cost money, and just now she’d been so righteous thinking this person was trying to cheat her.
"Tsk, little girl, if it was a half-hour ride, I might let it go, but this was nearly seven hours, from morning till now, I’ve been taking care of only you. Not to mention anything else, but you have to compensate me for the fuel at least," the driver said.
"..." Wen Xiao’ai kept her head down, silent.
"Little girl, if you keep this up, I’m really going to call the police to handle this," the driver warned.
"..." Wen Xiao’ai twisted her hands together, still looking downwards in silence.
The driver had no choice but to call the police to deal with the situation.
"I’m calling the cops, okay?" he said, lowering his head to start dialing and turned away to make the call.
"Hello, is this 110..."
Was he seeking help to deal with her?
Wen Xiao’ai bit her lip, watching the driver make his call with his back to her. Hesitating for two seconds, she flicked her fingertips and with a flash of purple light, her figure vanished from the car...
The driver finished calling the police and turned around.
"Little girl, just wait for the poli... Where is she?"
The driver, stunned, stared at the empty backseat.
After regaining his composure, he immediately got out of the car to look for Wen Xiao’ai, but amidst the bustling street traffic, there was no sign of her.
What had just happened?
How did a person disappear just like that?
He hadn’t heard the sound of the car doors opening or closing.
Qing Yi watched the driver get out of the car, looking around as if searching for someone, with a sense of curiosity.
Just as he was wondering what was going on, Bai Yi brought a monitor in front of him.
The red dot on the monitor, which should have been at the taxi fifty meters from them, was now a kilometer away.
What... what was going on, was the monitor broken or the tracker?
"When did that girl run off? Did you see her? I don’t think I saw her getting out of the car, how did she suddenly get a kilometer away from us?"
Bai Yi, looking at the driver still searching for Wen Xiao’ai not far away and then back at the monitor in his hand, was completely bewildered.
What on earth was going on?
"Qing Yi, turn around, follow her," Moyan’s deep voice came from the backseat.
"Yes," Qing Yi, suppressing the shock in his heart, immediately turned around and followed the red dot on the monitor.
Minutes later, they found Wen Xiao’ai’s figure on the side of the street.
Through the car window, Jun Moyan stared intently at the small figure, his gaze shifting unpredictably.
Instant Teleportation over a kilometer, she definitely wasn’t human. Thıs text ıs hosted at novel(ꜰ)ire.net
Jun Moyan, who had been listening to the conversation between Wen Xiao’ai and the driver the whole time with his Bluetooth, was very clear about it.
It was less than a minute’s time.
One moment she was in the car talking to the driver, the next second, in the gap when the driver called the police, she disappeared... And then she appeared here.
Jun Moyan’s heartbeat had quickened due to the emotional changes, and seemed to carry a mix of nervousness and excitement.
As for the source of that nervousness and excitement, perhaps only he knew.
