Alex carried Gu Ning with one arm and strode forward without looking back, his steps swift and steady as he left the chaos far behind.
A moment later, the two black and white figures vanished from Gu Ning's sight.
"Alex," Gu Ning said, her arms wrapped around his neck. She leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Was that Zone 15? Did they follow us?"
'I heard some Beastmen mention the Heavenly Beast Clan?'
Alex's expression faltered for a moment before he said, "It wasn't the people from Zone 15. Beastmen who fail the security check often try to force their way through at stations in the Middle Lower District. Don't worry, the station security is well-equipped. They'll handle a minor scuffle like that quickly."
Gu Ning looked back at the ticket gate, which was growing more distant. Several Beast Police had already surrounded it, and some Beastman travelers were temporarily blocked from passing through.
If they had been any slower, they probably would have been stopped as well.
