Chapter 1688: Where is Traceless? (8)
Qiao Yiyi had the gift of blending in with the crowd, thus being easily overlooked.
Hence, hidden among the security officers and staff, she was able to walk out of the room and, after taking a turn, she walked to the side of the house.
Following her escape plan A, she moved towards the lowest wall surrounding the Li family home.
Although there was a security device on the wall, that was a small matter for her.
She tossed a line up and held onto it. Using the strength of her arm, she nimbly pulled herself up.
She turned around and saw that a group in the courtyard was shouting. She found herself breaking into a mocking smile.
Humans were such fools.
At this thought, she turned again and jumped.
Bam!
Both her feet touched the ground. Just as she was about to retrieve her line, she heard a voice behind her, “You turned up after all.”
Qiao Yiyi froze at the sound of that voice.
Her head spun around, an expression of disbelief on her face. In the darkness, she saw Liang Liang standing by the wall, staring at her.
He stood in the shadows, hence when she had leaped down from the wall, she had not noticed Liang Liang even though she had checked.
Especially because he had come here today to stop her, he was dressed in black. It would have been impossible to spot him in the dark.
She clenched her fists tightly at once and smirked, “The great Police Officer Liang, it’s been some time.”
Her tone was sarcastic and distant. Liang Liang felt a dull pain in his chest.
He looked at Qiao Yiyi and frowned. He started, “You promised me you wouldn’t steal again!”
She tightened her fists at these words.
That was right, she had promised him.
But that was the past. She had thought that she could stop for the sake of this man.
But in the end, she had realized that she was just being naive.
This man was not worth her sacrifice at all.
As her eyes started to smart, her smile grew more brilliant. “Oh, I was just trying to appease you. You believed me?”
He was infuriated by her words. “Traceless! How could you treat me like this?!”
“What about you?” Qiao Yiyi looked at him and continued, “How did you treat me then?”
Liang Liang choked. “Traceless, I had no choice. And it was you who betrayed me first, you went back on your word.”
“So it seems we had to take different paths in life. Look at you now, aren’t you here to catch me? A police officer and a thief will always be enemies.”
Liang Liang immediately tried to explain, “I’m not, I’m not here to—”
Before he could finish, they heard footsteps and men from the special forces immediately closed in around them.
Traceless’ pupils shrank back as she gave the man a mocking smile. “I thought Police Officer Liang was here today for old times’ sake, but it looks like I was wrong. But getting so many people to catch a small time thief like me, I should feel so honored!”
By now, Liang Liang was in a panic and tried to explain, “Traceless, I didn’t- It wasn’t me. I—”
Bai Anan’s voice interrupted before he could finish, “Brother Liang, we’re here! Stop her, don’t let her get away!”
As she said this, the men closed in further.
