A scene from the back kitchen of a KFC was displayed.
Skye, a young girl who had just turned eighteen, was working there to earn money.
Qi Jun was stunned. "Americans eat KFC so early?" he thought. "Cough, cough."
"Taibai."
"Delete all videos related to Skye today!"
Qi Jun instructed Taibai while taking out the 'Rorschach's Oblivion Mask' and the 'Magic Adsorption Cowboy Hat' from his spatial ring.
Although the passive effect of the mutated gem prevented Qi Jun from being captured by surveillance when not actively used, he still didn't want his appearance to be seen.
He couldn't possibly exchange for a Men in Black memory-wiping pen, could he? And then shout, 'Everybody, look here!' That would be too embarrassing!
"Sir, all surveillance videos related to Skye have been deleted."
"This includes videos taken by passersby and surveillance cameras installed on surrounding buildings."
"The surveillance of this KFC is also under Taibai's control."
Taibai interrupted Qi Jun's reverie.
"Excellent!"
"Later, after I pick up Skye, you will delete all the KFC surveillance footage as well!"
Qi Jun said, putting on his mask and hat.
"Understood, sir!"
Whoosh! Qi Jun didn't reply. Instead, he looked at the projected real-time image, and with a thought, he instantly vanished!
The next second, in the image projected by the phone, everyone seemed to be startled by something, their eyes filled with fear.
The next second, Skye, with an equally surprised expression, disappeared from the projection! Completely disappeared! The kind of disappearance where she was there in one frame and gone in the next!
"Ah ah ah!!!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
A series of terrified screams echoed in Qi Jun's chairman's office.
Qi Jun had returned, and he had brought her back!
Qi Jun even saw all the objects vibrate ever so slightly.
Qi Jun could guarantee it.
He definitely hadn't seen wrong.
With his super vision, Qi Jun was confident that he had indeed noticed that momentary anomaly.
He looked at the screaming Skye, a faint smile on his face. "As expected of someone with the ability to generate shockwaves," he thought. "As expected of the famous Quake, who later shattered the entire Earth! Even before her powers are fully developed, she can already cause the surrounding environment and objects to vibrate."
At this moment, in the projection that hadn't been turned off, everyone looked around, momentarily confused, as if they hadn't noticed anything, and then resumed their work.
Ha! Skye disappeared? What did that have to do with them? She was just a temporary worker, not worthy of the concern of them... the permanent employees!
The projection went black and disappeared...
"Sir, all surveillance has been completely deleted."
Taibai reported the progress in a timely manner.
"Understood."
"Display all of Skye's information."
Qi Jun walked to the reception area, took out a bottle of red wine and two stemmed glasses.
He pulled out the cork and poured some red wine into both glasses.
He picked up one glass, brought it to his lips, and took a sip.
"Sigh."
"Am I really not destined to drink red wine?"
"I can't get used to the top-grade red wine Tony Stark gave me from his estate, and this high-end red wine here is also terrible!"
"Forget it, I'll just drink tea!"
Qi Jun put down the stemmed glass, shook his head, and grumbled.
With a wave of his hand, a steaming cup of clear tea appeared on the table.
He picked up the teacup, sniffed it, and took a small sip, a smile immediately spreading across his face.
"Phew."
"Not bad!"
"Pre-Qingming Longjing!"
"Still the taste I remember!"
Qi Jun didn't even consider that this cup of tea was materialized based on his own memories!
On the other side, Skye, who had watched the entire scene, covered her mouth tightly with both hands, her eyes wide with extreme shock!
"Sigh."
"Not screaming anymore?"
Qi Jun clearly noticed Skye's change and smiled kindly at her.
Unfortunately, Qi Jun's smile, in Skye's eyes, was even more terrifying than a demon!
"Ah ah ah ah!!!"
"Don't come near me!"
"Don't hurt me!"
"I don't have any money!"
"I don't have what you want!"
Skye, who had just calmed down, immediately shrieked in terror again.
She waved her arms frantically, backing away step by step in fear.
Bang! She stopped only when she hit the wall.
Seeing this, the smile on Qi Jun's face instantly... froze.
This was too damn awkward!
Did he look like the big villain in a horror movie?
"Cough, cough."
"Well, about that..."
