Chapter 702: Chapter 632: They All Have a Spectral-type Pet Beast

"When the boy’s eyesight returned, he found himself on the busy streetside."

Shock and bewilderment were written across his face.

After a few seconds of dazed silence, the boy exclaimed, "Is this teleportation?"

"No, this is spatial movement," Qiao Sang corrected.

The boy, who had not undergone systematic learning, did not quite understand the difference between teleportation and spatial movement.

However, he knew that now was not the time to be curious about these things.

"You really are an impressive Beast Tamer," the boy said to Qiao Sang, his tone sincere.

Qiao Sang accepted the flattery as her due and said, "Let’s find a place to sit down first, I need to call the police again."

"Okay," the boy agreed obediently, without objection.

The two of them walked into a café across the street.

After Qiao Sang ordered, she looked around and casually chose a place to sit down.

The boy sat opposite her.

Qiao Sang dialed the emergency number, reported her current location, then hung up.

"Can you tell me now what exactly is going on?" Qiao Sang asked.

The boy looked around briefly, fell silent for a few seconds, and then said, "My name is Tim, I’m from District 26. Two years ago, someone offered me a job and then brought me to District 19."

At this point, a pained expression crossed his face, "I didn’t know they were up to these tricks. They made me steal, beg pathetically for money, and sometimes even lead volatile wild Pet Beasts to crowded places."

"I just wanted to make some simple money, but later I found out that many people like me were deceived, and some were even kidnapped."

"I thought about escaping, but they had Beast Tamers among them, and I couldn’t get away."

"So, I thought about stealing something from those Beast Tamers, because only a Beast Tamer could possibly stand up to another Beast Tamer. Either they let me go, or they just beat me up, until I met you."

Gangbao listened quietly from the side, his expression contemplative.

So humans have their tragedies too...

This is pretty much what I expected; he was being controlled... But what’s with leading angry wild Pet Beasts into crowded areas? Is there a way to make money from this?... Qiao Sang didn’t dwell on this matter but instead asked, "Are they an organization? How many people are there? Are there many Beast Tamers?"

Tim thought for a moment and replied, "They’re definitely an organization, I don’t know the exact number of people, but there are quite a few Beast Tamers, and..."

As he got to this point, he subconsciously stole a glance at Xiao Xunbao and continued, "Most of those Beast Tamers have a Spectral-type Pet."

"Xun Xun..."

Xiao Xunbao pursed its lips, thinking you could just say it, why look at me when mentioning this...

Spectral-type Pets... Qiao Sang was no longer the greenhorn who needed to search the internet for every issue. At the mention of Spectral Series, she immediately thought of some concepts concerning them.

Different Pet Beasts evolve and absorb energy in different ways, and most Spectral-type Pets feed on bizarre energies, converting them into their own energy.

For example, human dreams, resentments, fears, regrets, and even life...

No wonder... she thought something was off...

Stealing money could only yield so much, and as a Beast Tamer with a high social status on Chao Su Star, one could do many things. Just fighting a couple matches in Pet Beast arenas could earn what ordinary people might make in a month of work.

Moreover, leading volatile wild Pet Beasts into crowds was hardly beneficial, but if they were collecting emotions like fear to feed Spectral-type Pets, that would make sense... After Qiao Sang sorted through her thoughts, she comforted him, "It’s all in the past. Wait for the police, and just tell them what you know."

She didn’t intend to get involved further with this matter. A bunch of Beast Tamers with Spectral-type Pets were capable of any depravity, and such tricky matters should be left to the police to handle.

Tim nodded, "Yeah, I understand."

"Miss, your coffee and milk," the staff member brought over the drinks.

Qiao Sang pushed the milk forward and said, "I ordered this for you."

"Thank you..." Tim was momentarily startled before carefully taking a sip from the cup.

At that moment, a man in a police uniform pushed the door and entered.

Because of the conspicuous uniform, Qiao Sang noticed him immediately.

The man had a thick set of sideburns, was tall but not imposing.

He first looked around as if searching for something, then his eyes landed on Qiao Sang, looked her up and down a few times, and walked straight over:

"Hello, did you call the police?"

Qiao Sang nodded slightly, "Yes, I did."

The sideburns officer looked at Tim and confirmed, "Is this the boy who stole your stuff on the subway?"

Tim got up and stood cautiously to one side.

"It’s true that he stole things," Qiao Sang said. "But he was being controlled by someone."

"It seems the case is a bit complicated; I will have to take him to the police station." The sideburns officer gave Tim a deep look and said, "Please come with me."

Tim didn’t get excited about the police’s arrival; instead, he turned to Qiao Sang, asking solemnly:

"Can you tell me your name?"

Qiao Sang didn’t answer him but merely sipped the coffee in front of her and asked:

"Don’t you need me to go to the station as well?"

The sideburns officer was taken aback for a moment but then smiled, "No need."

Having said that, he grabbed Tim, who was next to him, ready to leave.

Tim didn’t move; his face full of expectation as he looked toward the young Beast Tamer who had helped him, hoping she would tell him her name.

Qiao Sang put down the coffee cup and rubbed her throbbing temples, saying indifferently:

"I’m afraid I can’t let you take him away."

"Why?" the sideburns officer frowned.

Because I’m all too familiar with the process of calling the police and going to the station, your act is full of flaws; with so many people here, you came in and before I even spoke, you determined it was me who called the police, and most importantly, you didn’t ask me, the reporter of the incident, to go give a statement... Qiao Sang silently criticized in her mind, but outwardly, she remained calm, her face inscrutable.

Tim seemed to realize something, his face showing panic as he struggled hard to break free from the sideburns man’s grip.

The sideburns man didn’t know where he had gone wrong, his face darkened, but still maintaining the police persona, he said:

"If you don’t cooperate, I’ll have to take forceful measures."

As soon as he spoke, a voice sounded in his ear, "Xiao Xunbao."

The sideburns man had a chill in his heart and let go of Tim’s arm, shouting loudly: "Shadow Assault!"

A dark shadow suddenly burst out from the sideburns man’s own shadow, rushing along the ground toward Qiao Sang’s direction.

Just as the dark shadow was about to reach Qiao Sang, she suddenly disappeared from the spot, along with Yaobao, Xiao Xunbao, and Gangbao.

The sideburns man’s eyes widened, then he seemed to think of something, turned his head, and saw that Tim, who should have been beside him, had also vanished.

"!!!"

The sideburns man couldn’t hold back and let out a curse, "fuck!"

He took a deep breath, immediately stepped forward, preparing to leave.

"Sir!" a staff member called out to him.

The sideburns man turned his head, his face looking unpleasant.

The staff member mustered courage and said, "The lady just now hasn’t paid yet."

The sideburns man: "..."

...

In a narrow alley, Tim spoke with fear still on his face, "That man just now, wasn’t he a police officer?"

"He shouldn’t be," Qiao Sang replied.

Tim was speechlessly stunned.

The phone vibrated just then.

Qiao Sang glanced at the caller ID but chose not to answer.

"Let’s not wait for the police; I’ll just take you there myself," Qiao Sang
