Armor Guardians.

Chapter 64 Taking Small Advantages?

However, just as Xia Qianmeng and the security guard were having a great time sparring, a series of loud explosions shattered the lively atmosphere.

Immediately, Xia Qianmeng and the security guard stopped what they were doing and looked towards the sound of the explosion. It turned out that a chain of explosions had occurred in a large shopping mall not far away for some unknown reason. Thick smoke was billowing from the explosion site, and the sounds of panicked screams could be heard from the crowd.

"Hey kid, I won't arrest you now. You should go back to school quickly. It's too chaotic here, and it could be dangerous if something happens."

After saying that, the security guard left Xia Qianmeng behind and ran towards the chaotic crowd, because one of their jobs was to help the people to the best of their ability when they needed it.

It's very chaotic there right now, and there's a possibility of a stampede due to crowd congestion, so the security guard has to temporarily evacuate the traffic and wait for someone else to come.

Xia Qianmeng, who was left behind, certainly wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity for adventure. Since she didn't study, she used her lightness skill to leap towards the shopping mall after the security guard left.

As Xia Qianmeng approached the shopping mall, she realized just how lively it was. But to enjoy the spectacle more easily, she decided to go against the flow and head in the opposite direction of the crowd.

Soon, Xia Qianmeng arrived at the fifth floor of the mall where the chain of explosions had occurred. Due to the explosions, most of the equipment here had lost power, and the items on display in the mall were either overturned or burned. The thick smoke and dark environment produced greatly affected Xia Qianmeng's vision.

At this point, there were hardly any people left on the fifth floor of the mall. Only a few people who were injured or knocked unconscious by the explosion were still lying there. As for the others, they would definitely have run away in the face of such an event.

Looking at the scattered potato chips on the ground, Xia Qianmeng realized she hadn't had this snack in ages, and felt a pang of nostalgia. So, she simply picked up a bag and started eating...

While munching on potato chips, Xia Qianmeng began investigating the cause of the explosion. The reason? Simply because she was incredibly bored and had nothing to do. However, upon entering the building, she discovered five middle-aged men drinking. Seeing their bare shoulders and tattoos, Xia Qianmeng felt a pang of envy for what these men were doing.

However, Xia Qianmeng did not think they were bad people or anything like that. After all, there was nothing wrong with men having bare shoulders or tattoos. Xia Qianmeng was not the kind of person who judged good or bad based on these characteristics.

That's right, Xia Qianmeng mistook them for people like herself who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get a bargain at the shopping mall, judging by the expensive drinks they were drinking.

However, just as Xia Qianmeng was about to pass by them and leave, one of the muscular men called out to her, "Hey kid, come here~"

Hearing someone call her, Xia Qianmeng stopped out of curiosity, though she didn't know why they wanted to call her. She walked back to the five men and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Aren't you afraid of us?" the muscular man asked.

"Why should I be afraid of you?" Xia Qianmeng retorted. Indeed, Xia Qianmeng was very confident in her martial arts skills and did not think that the five of them could hurt her.

"Haha, sit down, how about having a drink with us?"

Without waiting for Xia Qianmeng to refuse, the muscular man took out an unused glass next to him and poured Xia Qianmeng a glass of wine whose price she didn't know, but which looked very expensive just from the bottle.
