Chapter 13 The Chase
The hurried footsteps made a rapid sound on the steps, attracting the attention of passersby.
Although it was strange that the young girl was in such a hurry, seeing that she looked like she was about to be late for work, the people subconsciously made way for her.
"Excuse me, excuse me!"
Qin Nan nimbly weaved through the crowd, her small stature suddenly bursting with tremendous energy. With just a few sidesteps, she quickly arrived at the main entrance of the building.
With a sudden stop, Qin Nan's eyes darted around, searching for the middle-aged man's figure in the fast-moving hall following the main entrance.
Perhaps because it was afternoon, there were many people in the hall. Some people were running around doing business, and some were submitting reports, making it difficult for Qin Nan to distinguish them at first glance.
But soon, her gaze fell upon a figure that had already entered the elevator with a large group of people.
"broken."
As the elevator doors slowly closed, Qin Nan's expression instantly turned somewhat unpleasant.
She then glanced at the gate that required a card to enter, assessed the height, and immediately took a running start and dashed over.
The main entrance of this building is similar to the entrance and exit of a subway station. Only employees working here can enter by swiping their cards. Outsiders can only enter through the side door or be led in by someone.
But how could Qin Nan, who was visiting for the first time, notice the side door?
With one hand slapping the card reader, Qin Nan leaped up, soaring over the machine like a gymnast, and landed steadily in the lobby.
Her smooth and graceful movements instantly attracted the attention of those around her. They couldn't help but stop what they were doing and stared in surprise at the unfamiliar young girl. Some even took out their phones.
It's obvious that this company has some new gossip to share today.
The security guard at the gate noticed Qin Nan and quickly walked over.
"Um, hello, may I ask who you are here for?"
The next moment, Qin Nan shot straight out like an airplane taking off.
"."
The security guard blinked, stunned.
He even maintained the gesture of extending his hand.
Turning his head to glance at Qin Nan's departing figure, the security guard seemed still unaware of what had happened.
However, he quickly shrugged indifferently, turned around and returned to his post, as if he hadn't seen anything at all.
As a security guard with several years of experience, he is very clear about his responsibilities and knows what he should and should not do.
Heaven knows which leader's daughter this crazy girl is.
The idea that "you can't get in without a key card, even if you're the chairman, and then you get praise and a promotion from the chairman" only happens in novels. In reality, it would only get you fired.
On the other side, Qin Nan had already arrived at the elevator door, but it was too late to catch up.
Just as she was getting anxious, Xiao Hui's voice suddenly appeared in her ear.
"The elevator that guy was in kept going up, it looks like it's going to the top floor. Oh, by the way, there's a fire escape on your left corner."
Upon hearing this, Qin Nan gritted her teeth.
"I hate stairs!"
She muttered something under her breath, and although she was a little annoyed, she headed towards the fire escape without any hesitation.
Pushing open the tightly closed door, Qin Nan saw the dimly lit stairwell.
The fire escape was eerily quiet, which suggests that it's not a place people use frequently; office workers would rather spend their time on their phones in front of the elevator.
Qin Nan knew that it was almost impossible to catch up with the elevator at human speed, but fortunately, she was not an ordinary person.
With a sigh, Qin Nan raised her hand and flicked the blue earring by her ear.
"Answer my call!"
In an instant, a shimmering light appeared.
"The howling wind and mist in the verdant valley—"
A gentle breeze suddenly appeared in the empty fire escape, making Qin Nan's clothes rustle.
"Darkness will be banished at this moment; in my name, let it bloom!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a soft light emerged from the earring and spread to the girl's entire body in the blink of an eye. The cyan light immediately enveloped Qin Nan's clothes.
Immediately afterwards, a burst of energy that was difficult for ordinary people to perceive was released.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
A sharp gust of wind swept by, directly blowing Qin Nan's outer garment away, which instantly transformed into a light blue short skirt. At the same time, Little Grey outside the building seemed to sense something as well, and the gray feathers on its body shed, turning into sky blue.
"Sister Nan, there are too many people in the elevator, he can't go directly to the corresponding floor. You still have a chance, hurry and chase after him!"
"Shut up, don't rush me."
The latest novel is first published here!
With a slight frown, Qin Nan exerted force with both legs, and a wisp of cyan magic began to flow down the soles of her feet.
The next second, Qin Nan's body instantly transformed into a blue shadow, disappearing from the spot at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and sprinting upstairs.
With the help of magic, she moved swiftly, climbing five or six steps with each stride, ascending the fire escape stairs as fast as lightning.
On the empty 27th floor, a man slacking off was smoking and playing on his phone.
"Go, go! Are you pigs?"
"If you don't know how to use the mirror, what are you even doing picking a gun!"
"I told you—"
brush!
"—You guys. Hmm?"
A gust of wind blew by, and the man raised his head in confusion.
Looking around but seeing no one, the man couldn't help but shrink back.
"Who left the window open?"
The man frowned in confusion, unable to figure it out, and quickly turned his attention back to his phone.
Da da
With each light step, Qin Nan arrived at the sixty-fifth floor.
"Little Grey, report that guy's location!"
"Still rising, shows no sign of stopping," Little Gray replied quickly, then spread its wings, its eyes flashing with a ghostly blue light. "I see! He pressed the seventy-sixth floor!"
"The 76th floor? What's that for? Don't tell me it's the executive floor."
"It seems so. That's the core office area, and everyone there is either very rich or very powerful," Little Grey replied, flapping its wings.
"Tsk."
With his brows furrowed, Qin Nan had no time to hesitate, and his magical power surged forth once more.
We absolutely cannot let that guy hurt anyone. We must stop him before that heretic kills anyone, otherwise, such a big incident will definitely cause an earthquake in the industry.
Magical girls have been around for so long, and so many predecessors have never revealed their secrets. I absolutely cannot be the one to do this.
Thinking of this, Qin Nan quickened his pace even further.
