At the same time.
Sky Rise City's Police Department.
Hong Mingyue had just received a detailed analysis report from her subordinate regarding the satellite footage taken at the time when Randy apprehended the burglar.
At this time, she had a slight frown on her beautiful face as she carefully read through the file a few times to make sure that she did not read it wrong the first time.
Eventually, she only sighed and then muttered: "How troublesome…"
'According to this report, that kid's appearance after transforming was indeed very strange, as he seemed to have a clawed-like fingernails when he transformed at that time.'
'However, this should not be too strange at all, since there were many different kinds of abilities out there, some are normal and others are bizarre enough to give one a headache, but I highly doubt those people from the Silvermoon family would recognize that fact.'
'They would most probably try to probe him to see if he was a member of their family. After all, only their family seemed to have this trait along with their distinctive hair color when they are engaged in a fight. Furthermore, due to its similarity to claws of wolves, most people assumed that they could somehow reinforce themselves with wolf-like abilities.'
'Nevertheless, they are not the only ones with this type of transformation ability as there are people with the ability to completely transform themselves into tigers, monkeys, birds and whatnot.'
'However, most of these people came into contact with mutated beast blood and upon consumption, they inherited their bloodline. Either that or some simply just awaken to a type of transformation ability that can turn their bodies into various animals.'
She silently thought all these with a deep frown still on her pretty face, making her eyebrows closely knitted together as she recalled how the people from Silvermoon family were always unbridled and smug as if they were some true nobles in this tumultuous world.
After thinking about this, she suddenly recalled something else and then she tapped her communication device to display a certain information of a certain someone.
This was Randy's information that he gave her during their encounter at that time.
At the time, Randy gave his information including his bank account information to her in hopes that she would send the bounty money to him later.
While looking at the information on the projected screen, she pondered for a brief moment.
Without thinking too much, she then tapped on her communication device to display a holographic keyboard and then silently typed something onto the screen before silently putting it away again when she was done.
…
On the other side.
Randy had just arrived at the gate of a residence. This was where Jiang Chen lives. After leaving the border of the city, he immediately made his way here to have Jiang Chen take care of something for him.
A few moments later, Jiang Chen came out and picked him up again and very soon, they were heading inside his room once more.
The moment they entered the mansion though, before going up to Jiang Chen's room, Randy did not miss the chance to greet Jiang Chen's mom who was currently busy in the kitchen preparing some Asian cuisines with an apron on.
Jiang Chen was an only child, so the parents did not have to worry about taking care of another child, thus Jiang Chen himself was always happy about this fact, since unlike Randy, his parents put all their efforts into getting him whatever he wanted.
Although Randy was slightly jealous of him, but he still cannot imagine himself not having his little sister and well, his little brother, who had already been recruited by an organization that specialize in raising rising prodigies.
At this moment, both of them had already reached Jiang Chen's room and then sat down.
"So how was the hunt? Did you manage to kill any mutated beasts?" Jiang Chen curiously asked with a hint of excitement.
He had already dreamt of fighting mutated beasts or joining a party to clear some dungeon, however at the moment, his ability was not a physical type but a mental type of an ability, which needed improvement before it can be useful in combat.
At this point, hearing his questions, Randy replied: "Yes, I defeated a few mutated beasts and there is something that I will like your help with and also that was mostly the reason why I came here right after exiting the Beast Forest."
"Oh?" Jiang Chen appeared intrigued and then inquired right away: "What do you need me for?"
"I have some mutated beast carcasses in this storage bracelet."
Saying so, he extended his hand to give the storage bracelet to him.
Jiang Chen received the storage bracelet and then continued to listen to him.
Randy then he continued: "I need your help to sell them including their beast cores. Naturally, I kept some of the beast cores for myself and I only needed you to use your connections to sell the remaining beast cores including their carcasses if it can be sold at all."
After saying so, he waited for him to say something, but the other party blankly stared at him and then down on his palm holding the intricate storage bracelet.
"How much mutated beast carcasses are in here?" Jiang Chen asked after a while.
…
After handling matters regarding the mutated beasts' corpses and beast cores through Jiang Chen, Randy quickly left, took a train, and then made his way home.
Very soon, he was in front of their family gate. After taking out his keycard and tapping it on the scanner, he proceeded to walk into the house without wasting time as it was currently almost 6 o'clock in the evening.
The reason why he was in a hurry was due to him spending some time explaining the situation to Jiang Chen including recounting to him about how he had hunted the mutated beasts, which got his friend excited for some reason after hearing them.
Strangely enough, when he went into the mansion, his mother was waiting for him in the living room as usual, however she did not say anything and only glanced at him when he walked in before turning back to watch the evening news.
What was even more strange to Randy was the fact that he thought his mother would call and ask about him since she was acting worried this morning, however according to Jiang Chen, she never called at all, not even once.
Randy did not mind it too much, after all, that only meant that there was no need for him to worry about himself being busted for lying to her about where he went instead of his friend's house.
In any case, today was a very tiring day for him as this was his first time attempting something like this, nonetheless the results were more than he had original expected.
Saying so, he looked at the section on the screen that displayed the amount of knowledge points he had right now.
