Li Songhai's gaze shifted evasively as he said, "I think you might have some misunderstanding about me, I wasn't following you. I was already there, just standing around, and for some reason, your spectral-type pet beast used hypnotism and knocked me out."
"Is that so?" Qiao Sang said, "By your logic, was it also a misunderstanding when your flight-type pet beast sneak attacked me from behind?"
Hearing this, Li Songhai nodded desperately, "It's all a misunderstanding, really. I haven't been bonded with Yu Chi Yan for very long, and haven't trained it well, so it randomly used its skills on the road."
Qiao Sang stared at Li Songhai, her dark eyes akin to watching a performing clown, and after a while, she spoke, "Then what about later, when your Steelclad Step Beast tried to snatch the pet beast from my backpack?"
Li Songhai braced himself and met her gaze, instantly feeling the pressure multiply.
He hadn't expected a high school student to be so imposing.
