Days passed by, and Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan continued their work and life as usual. However, the Imperial Capital Qinghe Alliance Office received a shocking secret.
After hanging up the phone call from the person in charge of Su City, Qiu Man hurriedly knocked on the door of the Li Cheng Alliance official's office.
"What's wrong?" After opening the door, Li Zongmengguan saw Qiu Man's anxious expression and took the initiative to ask.
Qiu Man closed the door, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered his voice to say, "This is of great importance. I just received a call from the person in charge of Su City, saying that they have discovered a spatial ability user there."
"What?" Chief Li was so shocked he almost screamed. "Are you sure the news is true?"
"Yes, there were eyewitnesses over there, and even a video was taken. The item disappeared as soon as she touched it."
Currently, the Suzhou City Guard has, under the guise of protection, kept the space-age ability user under control within the Suzhou City area.
Li Zongmengguan never imagined that the space they had searched for for so long would be exposed to them so easily.
However, he still had some doubts, "Are you sure the other party is a spatial ability user, and not someone who possesses a spatial storage device?"
Qiu Man shook his head. "I'm not sure. The people in Suzhou only said that the other party has a hidden ability, but they don't know the specific reason."
However, the girl only admitted that she had awakened her spatial abilities after being exposed to too much energy rain, and did not admit that she possessed a spatial storage device.
Both General Lee and Qiu Man expressed disbelief in this claim.
Because if energy rain can awaken superpowers in people, surely you're the only one among the billions of people in Qinghua Kingdom who's special.
Moreover, before announcing the effects of the energy rain to the public, the research institute had a team of 500 volunteers spend an extra month being showered with energy rain.
Even they only became physically stronger. Could there really be lucky people who could be reborn and develop superpowers after just two or three months of exposure to the rain?
But if they don't admit it, there's nothing you can do. You can't just use torture to extract a confession because you have doubts, can you?
They are high-ranking officials of the Qinghe Alliance. Even if they have selfish motives and want to find a private space, they cannot disregard the law and treat human life lightly.
"What's the situation with this person? How was he discovered?" Chief Li asked.
"I was caught red-handed while stealing, and that's how they found out."
"Hmm, you have a spatial ability but you still steal things?"
Qiu Man nodded, recalled what the person in charge of Suzhou had said, and then tried to repeat it verbatim.
"The woman's name is Yuan Ruoxi, she is 25 years old, unemployed, and her parents died from HZ virus infection..."
According to the investigation, she graduated from Suzhou Textile College, and because of this major, she smoothly entered Jinxiu Textile Factory after graduation. However, after the apocalypse, with water and power outages, unsurprisingly, she lost her job.
When the labor clerks were being recruited, Yuan Ruoxi disliked the job because she thought it was tiring and dirty, so she didn't apply.
But she couldn't find a job after a long time, so she had no choice but to stay at home and farm.
Actually, it's nothing, but this girl has been pampered since she was a child, and she couldn't stand it after only two days. She found it very hard.
Later, her parents died after contracting the HZ virus. With no one to support them, and neither working nor farming, they naturally ran out of food.
One day, when she was so hungry she couldn't stand it anymore, she decided to go to the supermarket to see if there were any discounted foods. That's when she discovered that she actually had a space.
According to her, that day she touched a bag of braised eggs and said, "I wish all of these were mine," and to her surprise, the bag of braised eggs really did disappear.
At that moment, she had a vague guess in her mind, then looked around and saw that there were no waiters or customers. Looking up, she saw that there were no cameras overhead.
To verify her suspicion, she blocked the shelf with her body, then reached for the compressed biscuits at the back of the shelf and silently chanted, "Collect, collect, collect," and sure enough, the items disappeared.
Having confirmed that she had a space, she then avoided the cameras and began a massive looting spree.
At first, she was quite nervous, afraid of being caught and beaten up. But after trying once or twice without being caught, she gradually lowered her guard.
After that, a lot of supplies would disappear from that supermarket every now and then, and the security guards increased their patrols but still couldn't find any clues.
Even more surprisingly, several supermarkets in the surrounding area have started experiencing cases of goods disappearing into thin air.
So they called the police.
After listening to the accounts of several supermarket managers, the police copied all the store's surveillance footage and, after a week of comparison, finally identified the suspects.
However, none of them could have imagined how the other party managed to steal those things while avoiding people.
Although the surveillance footage showed the woman only touching the counter once, a subsequent inventory check revealed that nearly half of the goods on those counters were missing.
Sensing something amiss, the police mobilized all their forces, donned plainclothes, and staked out the areas where the woman frequented.
It wasn't until half a month later that the woman reappeared at Wangyuan Supermarket.
A policeman wearing a black down jacket walked near the woman, carrying a shopping basket and occasionally putting something into the basket.
Perhaps the police officer was in a similar state to the other customers shopping, or perhaps the woman had committed multiple crimes but had never been caught, so the police officer's approach did not attract her attention.
Then, the policeman saw that anything that passed through her hands would disappear without a trace.
At that moment, she almost screamed.
Space! She actually saw the legendary space!
I'm so damn envious and jealous!
But she hadn't forgotten why she came here. Not daring to alert the enemy, she took out her phone and sent a message to her colleagues, preparing to make the arrest in a less crowded area outside the supermarket.
And so, Yuan Ruoxi was caught after "strolling" around the supermarket.
At first, she denied it outright and accused the police of restricting her personal freedom, until she saw the scene of herself making things disappear.
It turned out that the policeman's black-rimmed glasses had a miniature high-definition camera embedded in them, which captured Yuan Ruoxi's movements clearly even from more than ten meters away.
Now that things had come to this, Yuan Ruoxi could only admit her mistake, but she refused to acknowledge the amount she had stolen.
Because her crime was so unusual, the police chief reported it directly to the city officials, and the entire police station was silenced.
The kind of seal used when signing an agreement.
The person in charge of Suzhou City had an in-depth conversation with Yuan Ruoxi at the police station because, based on the value of the stolen items reported by several supermarkets, Yuan Ruoxi was definitely going to face three years in prison.
Yuan Ruoxi was naturally unwilling.
The Suzhou official stated that if she confesses truthfully, they could consider allowing her to atone for her crimes through meritorious service.
So Yuan Ruoxi agreed and told him everything she should and shouldn't have said.
However, she was still somewhat sensible and stubbornly refused to admit that she possessed a spatial storage device, only saying that she had awakened a spatial ability.
