[Quest: Reclaim your belongings from the purse snatchers.]
[Status: Completed]
[Reward: 2 Prana Stones]
Once she read through it, the image vanished. Re'Kha knew she would receive the reward once she returned to her world. That was how it always worked.
To be honest, she had yet to understand the purpose of Earth's existence. All she knew was the fact it was the source of Prana Stones that helped them increase the units of Elemental Qi in their body. Other than that, everything about it was mysterious.
There only existed few portals to Earth. And, cities were erected around such portals. Earth seemed technologically advanced than her world, too much in fact, but for some reason, no Human had ever managed to cross over to her world.
Moreover, it seemed as if they didn't even know the existence of her world. The confusing fact was how she was able to enter and control the actions of another individual. Moreover, it wasn't as if they manipulated a lifeless realistic-looking doll to move around. It was a real person, a living breathing being.
And, the fact that the choices of the owners would become apparent in numerous cases, whether it was the way they walked, the abrupt actions they took, the tone and choice of words, or the time when the body moved on its own, despite being inhabited by a Harmoniser, everything made it apparent that they were controlling alive people.
There were a lot of things that she was curious about and puzzled about Earth. When she felt a headache from all the thoughts, Re'Kha returned her phone to the inspector, only planning to take it after it was verified to be safe to use.
She placed the compact mirror in her purse and looked out, feeling a lot of information flow into her head as she saw vehicles move past, the numerous shops, and the variety of items in each of them. A lot of them caused a considerable amount of information to flow into her.

Thankfully for her, it was something that was caused by the laws that governed Earth, so Re'Kha didn't experience any information overload. She patiently looked at everything and learned everything she could about Earth in the short time she was here.
Even though she would forget everything once she left, any piece of information she had completely understood on her own would remain in her and wouldn't be forgotten. That was what she was hoping to achieve.
Moreover, the more she saw, the greater the volume of information flowing into her. And, this increased her understanding of Earth, allowing her to have a solid grasp of it soon enough.
The jeep returned to the police station as the Inspector spoke in his gruff voice, "It would take an hour to finish inspecting your phone. You can either wait here or return later."
"I'll return after an hour then," Re'Kha thanked the Inspector as she looked at the two boys, "Shall we ride my car until then?"
"Sister, is that your car?" The boy gawked in shock as he pointed at a flashy car parked in the police station.
"That's mine," Re'Kha smiled, "Let's get going."
"Alright!" The two boys jumped in joy as they somersaulted towards the car, exited at riding it.
The boy she met first took the seat on the front while the other boy occupied the two seats on the back, making an expression as if he was in heaven. Re'Kha chuckled as she started the car, slowly bringing it to the main road before whirring it into action, "Put on your seat belts."
The two boys seemed to know about it, thanks to their interest in cars. And, judging by the way their eyes darted to the components of the car, it seemed they also had detailed knowledge about them. They were car enthusiasts.

Re'Kha drove the car on the road, watching the eyes of the boys widen in excitement. She smirked, feeling playful as she accelerated it the moment she noticed there was enough free space on the road to do so.
The sudden increase in speed startled the two boys before they cheered in excitement, laughing at the top of their lungs. The two were high-spirited, enjoying the ride fully.
To ensure their enjoyment was the maximum, Re'Kha made sharp turns at times, overtook many vehicles, and accelerated rapidly in empty spaces before deaccelerating when in the presence of traffic.
All her actions caused the thumping of their hearts to increase and decrease in sync. They were caught up in the moment, enjoying it to the limit. Soon, they noticed the car begin to slow down before stopping.
When they looked around in confusion, they noticed they had reached the police station once again. Confused, the boys looked at Re'Kha who spoke with a smile, "We have been driving for almost two hours now. I still have to get back to work."
"Thank you, sister." The two boys said with a dispirited tone. The boy wearing her watch was in disbelief as he looked at the time displayed in it, wondering how two hours passed so quickly. Once the car stopped in the police station, they quickly alighted, intending to return back home.
Re'Kha opened her compact mirror to see that she had completed the Quest. But, upon seeing their hunched backs and their gazes of longing as they stole glances at her car, Re'Kha didn't wish to leave them like that.
"Wait here for a minute." Saying so, she entered the police station, directly approaching the Inspector. The ego in her character prevented her from walking towards anyone that didn't have the highest authority in the police station.
The Inspector handed her phone, speaking with a solemn tone, "It was good that you hadn't used it. They had actually tampered with it. It's been fixed now. So, you can use it without any problems. Still, I suggest you change your phone to a new one."
"Thank you, for your service," Re'Kha replied and exited the police station, making a call to a certain someone as she looked at the two boys. The moment she looked at the call registry, a mountain of information flooded her mind.
