Hu Xiaoxiao walked out with a lot of doubts. She could not hear any voices or see any people in the long corridor. She remembered that when she first came here, there were security guards from the convention center guarding this corridor, and occasionally, police officers would patrol.

After walking for a while, Hu Xiaoxiao finally saw a respectfully dressed police officer walking towards her.

She quickly shouted, "Sir, there are thieves colluding with a security company to steal jewelry! Arrest them immediately!"

The officer opposite her had a white face, brown hair, and blue eyes. He quickly walked over and stood in front of Hu Xiaoxiao. The first thing he noticed was the huge diamond necklace around Hu Xiaoxiao's neck, and a flash of surprise crossed his face.

There were quite a few foreigners in the Baogang police team. Hu Xiaoxiao didn't find it strange that the other person had a white face, and repeated what he had just said. Afraid that the foreigners' Cantonese might not be good, he also said it in English.

Unexpectedly, the foreign police officer turned the tables and said in English, "You're a thief! Where did that necklace around your neck come from? Did you just steal it?"

"What? I stole it?" Hu Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Do you recognize me? I was a model at today's jewelry show. The necklace around my neck is one of the items I showcased on the runway. The security company escorted me here just now, but who knew that some of the security personnel colluded with the thief and knocked out my friend, a security guard, and a transport guard. Look, it's in that rest room."

"I see." The foreign police officer believed Hu Xiaoxiao's words and said, "Give me the necklace first, I will give it to my superior for safekeeping, and I will give it back to you when the jewelry show starts."

"For you?" Hu Xiaoxiao was puzzled and looked at him a few more times.

“That’s right, give it to me. It’s not safe for a woman like you to wear it. I’ll protect it in my hands.” The foreign police officer approached Hu Xiaoxiao.

Hu Xiaoxiao took a step back and found that the foreigner's hand had already touched the stun gun at his waist. He quickly pulled it out, pressed his thumb on the button, and the stun gun, flashing blue light, shocked her.

Hu Xiaoxiao quickly dodged, but the foreigner pursued relentlessly, his stun gun flashing blue again, intending to shock her. Seeing Hu Xiaoxiao's agility and failing to shock her several times, he held the stun gun and kicked her with a flying kick.

While on the run, Hu Xiaoxiao noticed something was wrong; the foreigner's pants were too short and didn't fit him at all.

Looking closer at his admiration, it was tightly wrapped around his body, and the sleeves were a bit too short.

My heart skipped a beat: This is a fake police officer!

No wonder they turned the tables; it turns out they were the thief crying "stop thief!"

Seeing the opponent sweep a leg towards her, Hu Xiaoxiao turned around sharply to dodge, retreating several steps, her wide skirt swirling in a flying arc as she moved.

When the foreigner brandished the stun gun at her again, Hu Xiaoxiao didn't dodge. Instead, she stared wide-eyed at his back and shouted excitedly, "Sir, sir! Quickly shock him!"

The foreigner quickly turned around to look, but there was nothing behind him; there was no police officer in sight.

No, I was fooled!

But he realized it too late; Hu Xiaoxiao had already grabbed the foreigner's wrist, which was holding the stun gun, and twisted it forcefully—

Click!

The hand is broken.

The foreigner's face contorted in pain.

Hu Xiaoxiao took the stun gun, and mimicking the foreigner's actions, pressed the button. When the stun gun flashed with blue electricity, she sizzled it down on the foreigner.

Hu Xiaoxiao moved too fast; when the foreigner tried to run, he was electrocuted in the lower back.

With this move, he lost control of his body.

Hu Xiaoxiao wouldn't give him a chance to retaliate. She pressed the button repeatedly, shocking the foreigner until his body twisted like an earthworm, until he foamed at the mouth, collapsed on the ground, and rolled his eyes back before she let him go.

After dealing with the foreigner, Hu Xiaoxiao walked to a security camera and looked up at it. So much time had passed since the incident, yet the monitoring room hadn't reacted, and not a single officer had come to check.

Does Steven know any of this? What happened on his end?

Hu Xiaoxiao walked to the top of the stairs and looked downstairs.

Quanfu Jewelry rents a rest area on the floor above, not on the same floor as other jewelry companies. This is for security reasons, to prevent too many people and too much chaos from causing jewelry theft.

If there's no activity on this floor, what about downstairs? What about the jewelry from other jewelry companies? Are they being targeted too?

Hu Xiaoxiao reached out and grasped the necklace worth 300 million around her neck. After a moment of deep thought, she walked downstairs.

She did not choose the elevator, but instead chose the stairs in the escape route.

The high heels clicked on the stairs, making a crisp, rhythmic sound.

Once downstairs, Hu Xiaoxiao pushed open the fire door and took a few steps when she encountered a sanitation worker pushing a cleaning cart.

This was a man with half-gray hair and a kind face. When he saw Hu Xiaoxiao, he looked surprised. "Sister Xiao? What are you doing here? Are you going to the jewelry show? The jewelry show doesn't start for another twenty minutes."

"Let me come down and take a look." Hu Xiaoxiao loosened her fist holding the pendant, revealing the unparalleled pink diamond.

The cleaner's eyes widened in surprise, and she hurriedly said, "Sister Xiao, why are you wearing such expensive jewelry around without a bodyguard? A jewelry company just had a valuable ring stolen. You need to be more careful and avoid running into thieves."

"Thank you for the reminder, Uncle. I will be careful," Hu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

The cleaner waved her hand and said, "You're welcome, I'm a fan of yours too. By the way, Sister Xiao, it's rare to meet you, could you sign an autograph for me?"

The cleaner came over with a notebook, a fawning smile on her face.

“Great! I’d love to!” Hu Xiaoxiao walked towards the cleaner with a bright smile.

As the two approached, the cleaner suddenly reached out and grabbed at the huge diamond around Hu Xiaoxiao's neck—

No sooner said than done, Hu Xiaoxiao dodged to the side and grabbed the cleaner's wrist with her other hand.

The cleaner reacted very quickly, twisting her wrist and taking two steps back, managing to avoid it.

"I didn't expect you to be so vigilant." A hint of surprise appeared on the cleaner's seemingly honest and kind face.

Hu Xiaoxiao scoffed coldly, "You want me to sign my name but don't even have a pen? Do you expect me to draw a talisman on the paper for you with my finger?"

"No need for the talisman. Just hand over your jewelry. I won't hurt you because you're a celebrity." The cleaner's eyes gradually sharpened, revealing a hint of ruthlessness.

Hu Xiaoxiao wasn't easily intimidated. "That depends on whether you have the ability."

"I've long heard that Sister Xiao has some real skills, and I've come to learn from her today." The cleaner suddenly returned to the front of the cleaning truck, pulled out two foot-long Emei thorns from under the truck, and modified the tips into sharp triangles with barbs.

This weapon with barbs is extremely insidious and vicious; if you are stabbed, the stab and pull can tear out a piece of flesh.
