Qiao Jin’s shoulder throw was quite forceful.

Gao Shengke fell to the ground with a very loud thud.

He started howling right on the spot.

There was originally no one behind the building, but his howls attracted the attention of a few people passing by.

When they saw that it was a girl beating a boy, they snickered without taking it seriously.

Gao Shengke’s back and spine were broken by Qiao Jin, and it felt excruciatingly painful. He didn’t expect Qiao Jin to have such ability.

Qiao Jin used to be so meek that anyone who spoke loudly could scare her, let alone actually fighting back.

Gao Shengke gritted his teeth and tried hard to get up. “You…”

Qiao Jin kicked him, and he fell to the ground again.

“What do you mean me?”

While Qiao Jin was beating him, she smiled cheerily. “I am such a kind person, yet you come here looking to pick a fight with me. Do you even have a conscience?”

If Gao Shengke had a conscience, of course, he wouldn’t have come.

But she didn’t mind him coming here looking for her because he had faint gray energy on his body that greatly intrigued Qiao Jin.

It also showed that he would suffer a bit of backlash for what he did to Qiao Jin.

It wasn’t serious at first, but now that he’d come to pick a fight with Qiao Jin, the backlash would be more severe.

Not just anyone can afford to mess with the karma on Qiao Jin.

Gao Shengke hadn’t expected that Qiao Jin, who was nothing in his eyes, would be able to beat him up.

He wanted to howl in pain, but he also felt ashamed.

At that moment, he launched another accusation at Qiao Jin. “You were actually just pretending before, and Xuejia trusted you greatly.”

Qiao Jin was speechless.

She let out a sigh of frustration and realized that some people just couldn’t understand.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Instead of investigating me, you should investigate why Tan Xuejia was stabbed fifty-two times.”

After Qiao Jin said this, she didn’t plan on talking to Gao Shengke any further. “I’m telling you this. Tan Xuejia’s death had nothing to do with me. If you come to harass me again, you won’t just get beaten up.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Gao Shengke got up, and staring at Qiao Jin’s retreating figure, he gritted his teeth.

“After watching this video, don’t you think she behaved strangely too?”

In an underground area, at the front of a technologically advanced room, two people were standing together and watching a video of what had happened that day.

Cao Yikai and his colleagues were investigating the crime committed by the man in the mall at noon.

They watched the video repeatedly and found something obviously strange.

A handsome colleague, Hua Yanming, pointed to the location where Qiao Jin appeared on the computer. “At that time, everyone, even the staff, was scared and ran out of the mall, but look at her. She stayed in the mall for a while, and then she chose a direction to go out, and that direction was the one in which the monster escaped.”

Cao Yikai narrowed his eyes and watched the video again and then suddenly said, “There’s some movement under her feet. Please zoom in so I can take a closer look.”

Hua Yanming also noticed what Cao Yikai had seen. They looked carefully, and they discovered that Qiao Jin seemed to be doing something in the video at that time. As if on the brink of some groundbreaking discovery, the two of them stared at the zoomed-in video, but suddenly, the sound of electric explosions burst out all over the room.

The computer also made the piercing sound of an electric explosion, and suddenly, the entire screen shattered.

The two men were so shocked by this sudden change in events that they shielded their heads and hid.
