Li Sikai hadn't lied to her after all; his secret was no longer a secret.
However, after carefully observing the expressions on everyone's faces, she found only surprise, astonishment, and envy, but no greed, and she felt relieved.
It seems that as long as she lives under the protection of the guards, she can still rest easy.
Thinking of this, Yuan Ruoxi put away her previous cautious expression and began to display her spatial abilities as freely as a proud peacock.
Li Sikai didn't know how to describe this girl; she was incredibly audacious and incredibly stupid.
In short, all causes and effects are predetermined by Heaven.
And so, a few days later, news of a spatial ability user appearing in the southern part of Suzhou spread like wildfire. Even the eastern, western, and northern parts of the city heard about it.
Meanwhile, Lu Nanfang was chatting with a young woman in her thirties inside the tent.
"Sister Yu, you said there was a theft at your workplace?"
"Absolutely! Let me tell you, it's like God is unleashing his fury. They just disappeared without anyone knowing what happened! Several times in a row, we couldn't catch them. We only found them when we were taking inventory."
"Then do you think there might be an inside traitor? Otherwise, how could so much merchandise have been lost all at once?"
"Who knows? Anyway, the boss called the police later, and the police did recover the losses, but they didn't say who did it."
I suspect the boss knows, but when we asked, he just said he couldn't say.
I don't think it's some kind of inside job, otherwise they'd be arrested and jailed already. I guess it's some kind of supernatural event, and the boss is keeping it a secret to avoid affecting business.
This matter had been on Sister Yu's mind for a long time. When she told others about it before, no one believed her. Only this young girl, Xiao Fang, was willing to discuss it with her. She didn't know why, but a secret sense of excitement rose in her heart.
At this moment, Lu Nanfang also became excited, her voice trembling slightly, "Sister, have you noticed any suspicious people, the kind who frequently go there but don't buy anything, and whose belongings are stolen during that period?"
Sister Yu thought for a moment, and then she actually remembered one. "Well, I really didn't expect that if you hadn't mentioned it, there really is such a girl who often hangs around the store. Every time I ask her what she wants, she just smiles and says she's just looking around, but she doesn't buy anything."
And it seems that things really do get stolen after that girl leaves.
Suddenly, Sister Yu gripped Lu Nanfang's wrist nervously and said, "Xiaofang, that girl, could she be an accomplice, here to scout the place?"
Lu Nanfang really wanted to ask, "Big sister, don't you read online novels?"
However, she rolled her eyes and whispered in Sister Yu's ear, "Sister Yu, do you remember what that girl looks like? I mean, I can tell the security team about this situation. Who knows, it might help the supermarket owner catch the thief."
Sister Yu nodded, "Okay, okay, you get along well with those guards, you go and talk to them. Let me think, that girl is about 1.6 meters tall, with long hair, an oval face, single eyelids, upturned eyes, and when she smiles she looks like a little fox, very cute."
Lu Nanfang was getting anxious. Who could find such a description? They could find a whole bunch of people who fit the criteria in no time. She suggested, "Are there any distinguishing features, like dimples, or moles on your face or hands?"
"You know what, there really is one, she..."
Before Sister Yu could finish speaking, her son ran in from outside the tent, sweating profusely and excitedly saying, "Mom, Mom, everyone's saying a fairy has come to the south of the city, the kind that can conjure things up!"
"What fairy?" Sister Yu was completely confused. Her son was only seven or eight years old. Was she afraid that she had encountered a swindler?
"She's a fairy, the kind who knows magic. She can put things away and then release them. I heard a lot of people have seen her!"
"A space?" Lu Nanfang stood up abruptly. She never expected that after carefully investigating for so long, just when she was about to get the news, the owner of that space would actually reveal his identity. What the hell was she going to do now?
"What?" Sister Yu didn't hear what Lu Nanfang said, but seeing how excited she was, she asked subconsciously.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Sister Yu's son, Junbao, looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Lu Nanfang gave an awkward laugh, sat back down on the stool, and asked, "I just got too excited when you talked about fairies. Are there really fairies? Where did you hear that?"
"Sister, do you believe me? Many people say I'm lying!" Junbao looked intently at Lu Nanfang.
She stopped halfway through her sentence. Lu Nanfang really wanted to catch the little brat and give him a good beating, but not only could she not, she had to force a smile and say, "Believe it or not, I've never seen a fairy. Can you tell me where you heard about it?"
Seeing Lu Nanfang's sincere attitude, Junbao nodded and said, "Uncle Xiao from the neighboring neighbor's neighbor's neighbor's neighbor's neighbor's neighbor's uncle took his son Xiaomeng to Nancheng to deliver something, and he saw a fairy sister over there who made the big rock disappear in an instant."
"Could it be that Xiao Meng is lying?" Lu Nanfang felt a chill in her heart. Now that everyone knows, is there any chance that her little scheme will still work out?
"No, Xiao Meng never lies. Besides, Xiao Meng said that Fairy Sister will be coming to Dongcheng to help in a couple of days! Then I..."
Lu Nanfang didn't notice what Junbao said next. She returned to the tent in a daze, then lay down on the bed, on the verge of tears.
After a few days of rest, Tong Xianbao has recovered a lot and can move around without any problems, even when he is alone.
He sat in the tent of the disaster victims, waiting and waiting, but Lu Nanfang did not come. He asked around and found out that she had already gone back.
Tong Xianbao was puzzled. Lu Nanfang usually didn't go home until late at night, so why did she quit her job so early today? Could it be that she had some news?
He was somewhat excited, and disregarding the fact that his right leg, which was still recovering, was too weak to exert any force, he hurriedly limped back to the tent, only to find Lu Nanfang looking dejected.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Tong Xianbao asked with concern as he sat down next to Lu Nanfang.
As a result, Lu Nanfang burst into tears, "It's over, there's no hope! The owner of that space actually revealed his identity, how are we supposed to make a move now?"
Tong Xianbao was stunned. "There really is a space?"
"Yes, they all say that spatial ability users have appeared in the South City, and they even said they'd be coming to the East City in a couple of days."
Baby, what was the point of all this effort? Now we can't do anything we want.
"Is that space-manipulation ability user an idiot? He actually has a space ability and instead of hiding it, he reveals it himself!"
Having finally found a space, but still unable to move, Tong Xianbao felt a little regretful. He patted Lu Nanfang's back to comfort her, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. She's so flamboyant, she won't get away with it."
