Chapter 422 Crime

Freya entered a local cosmetics store, selected a few items, and purchased a cloth shopping bag.

By the time she left the cosmetics store, she had already applied a dark foundation to her face. She carefully covered her neck and wrists, making her skin tone blend in with the average Kundin person. With her long hair tied up and a duckbill cap on, there was hardly anything noticeable about her appearance except for her gender.

Once she left, she went to a grocery store to buy some biscuits and mineral water. After she had purchased two days’ worth of food, she arrived at a secluded street and noticed a private car parked by the side of the road.

She pursed her lips. If the car was stolen, the owner would definitely report it.

Once the police were involved in a rural place like this, Jamie would surely be able to track her down by tracing the vehicle.

In Kundin, only those with good financial backgrounds owned cars.

She walked around the street, constantly surveying the houses on both sides. Most of the houses had their lights on.

It wasn’t until she was close to the end of the street that her gaze fell on a particular house.

As she looked in from the gate, the yard was covered in leaves and dust. The gra*s was overgrown, and there was a rusty car parked in the yard that was covered with a protective

net.

Freya had a hunch that this house seemed to have been unoccupied for a long time. So, she quietly climbed through the window into the yard.

First, she picked on the lock and opened the door. Then, she inspected the car for a while, making sure that all the parts were still usable. Finally, she climbed through the window into the house and found the car keys in the TV cabinet in the living room.

“Well, that’s convenient.”

To be fair, Freya could still start the car without the keys.

She just had to hotwire the engine by connecting the ground wire, the live wire, and the ignition wire together and taping them up. Still, she didn’t expect her luck to be this good.

It was an unexpected delight.

She searched the house for a while and found an old mobile phone. Unfortunately, it seemed that it had been out of service for a long time due to lack of use.

Nonetheless, she found a charging cable and returned to the car with her prize.

It would be better to get her hands on a phone for the sake of convenience. There was just one teeny little problem. It wouldn’t be easy to get a SIM card in Kundin. At this point, she truly regretted not taking the hooligans’ SIM cards earlier. Yet, it wouldn’t be safe to take their SIM cards since they could easily identify her.
