Ruo Xuan rounded a corner and caught up with the thief, casting a malicious Little Fairy Technique upon him. The thief, under its influence, ran straight towards a government officer, but suddenly his left foot tripped over his right, and he sprawled out on the stone-paved road, right in front of the officer.
With a clatter, several money pouches fell out from his sleeves and chest!
Half a money pouch was still hanging from his chest.
Government Officer: "..."
Was this thief inadvertently falling into his own trap?
The thief's face turned ashen with fear as he frantically scrambled to gather the money pouches that had fallen to the ground.
The government officer grabbed him by the collar, "Quite the little thief you are, to have stolen so many pouches!"
The thief felt incredibly unlucky, "Please spare me, good sir, these pouches weren't stolen, I swear I didn't steal them!"
