Linni walked over to them.
"Huh? Why? The phantom thief should have just stolen something, right?" Paimon asked in surprise.
“Stakeholder,” Lynette said softly.
"You stole the treasures of the Franlette family, and then you stole the treasures of the Cabrière Merchant Guild. Who knows if you'll steal from us next time!"
"...That makes sense."
"Yes! A sinner like you shouldn't be standing here!"
"What about the security forces and special patrol teams?"
The sounds gradually amplified and grew louder, becoming noisy and jarring.
But Navia stared at Luna's face, her expression clearly visible in the moonlight, even through the mask.
A calm and elegant smile.
It seems unmoved by any voice.
Under her silent gaze, sound seemed to be gradually erased, and an eerie silence descended upon the scene. This was not intimidation, but rather more like simple...praise.
“I’m glad you all hate evil so much,” Luna finally said.
She's not angry?
"As you all have said, I will steal even more treasures in the future, regardless of identity, status, past, or whether your future will be affected."
Someone swallowed hard.
"But please allow me to say: it's boring."
"They cower in the shadows, colluding with each other, wanting everything they desire but daring not to reveal their true selves. They can only resort to insignificant means, attempting to crush the light that can burn their eyes."
"You are nothing but lowly, shameful, pathetic, and laughable maggots. How dare you think you can look me in the eye, or even destroy me?"
"If I could muster the courage to step onto my stage, I would be able to offer you the highest level of courtesy."
"But unfortunately, you don't even dare to look at the glory of sinners, fearing you will be swallowed up and destroyed, so you can only fill your guns with false justice..."
Luna slowly raised her hand.
What is she trying to do? Xia Worei frowned.
However, she simply pointed it to the sky, and the clouds drifted by, obscuring the hazy moonlight, thus dimming the view visible to the naked eye.
Even though the streetlights were still on, her face was still obscured.
Bang! Suddenly, a bright light shone on the crowd... or more precisely, on a few individuals.
They were the "voices" who had just blended into the group.
In an instant, they became the focus of everyone else's attention, and the crowd slowly parted to make way for the light.
Where did the light come from?
Upon closer inspection, Navia exclaimed in surprise, "Rock element?"
That was a stage installation constructed from rock elements.
“It’s already at the five elements…” Xia Worei murmured.
Is it constantly getting stronger, or has it never used its full strength from the beginning?
Illuminated by the light, their faces turned ashen—how did this guy manage to grab us so accurately?
But that's useless to me.
Luna beckoned with her finger, and the lighting device changed direction, the light falling on her again.
"Please do not forget my figure at this moment, and etch it in your hearts! Then you will find that no one can match my brilliance!"
"There is only one Phantom Thief White Cat in this world!"
No one can compare to her radiance. That statement is a gross exaggeration.
But it cannot be denied that this may indeed be the case.
Currently, the only ones who can rival her are Fontaine's two most dazzling stars, Furina and Luna.
Therefore, no one will admit their mistake anymore.
Because its brilliance is unique.
"And I will accept all your treasures. Look forward to my announcement." Luna bowed slightly, then turned around.
With a snap of her fingers, the stage curtain flew down, obscuring her back.
In the blink of an eye, she completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
The curtain then quickly dissipated in the air.
All that remains is the memory of that dignified and dazzling figure.
She was indeed an absolute villain, but for some reason, just thinking about her figure and words from earlier made her feel a stinging pain in her eyes and ears.
Not far away, Funina sighed, "What a strange person."
Claurind remained expressionless: "After all, he's a 'phantom' thief."
Funina also became expressionless.
................
"I'm very sorry, after verification, you are indeed an honorary knight of the Knights of Favonius and an elite of the Adventurers' Guild... This time, we made a mistake in our execution."
Ying did not pursue the matter further after the apology from the security team.
She could certainly sense that things might not be peaceful inside the Court of Justice. Rather than making a big fuss, it was better to let it go and avoid trouble.
"Just know."
Ying seemed thoughtful after accepting the compensation from the garrison.
"It's so good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up. We owe it all to Linnie and Lynette, whom we met earlier. They are such kind people!"
Paimon paused, then added subtly, "Although it's mainly because of the Phantom Thief White Cat's style; no one can imitate it..."
She had never seen such a blatant sinner before.
And what he said was very satisfying.
"What's wrong, Luminous?" Paimon asked, noticing Luminous's deep thought.
"Fontaine may not be at peace."
"Indeed... but if you want to know about your brother, you'll have to go to the Water Goddess, right? I don't know how to get to her."
A voice suddenly rang out: "If you don't mind, why don't you come and watch our performance?"
Turning around, I saw Linnie and Lynette walking over.
"It's fate to meet such a famous traveler. In just a few days, we will be performing a magic show at the opera house, and Lady Funina will be there to watch it."
Paimon suddenly realized: "Then find a chance to see her!"
"It's rather difficult to see Lady Funina, but Luna might be able to help you make the connection. Just tell her we introduced you, and she'll understand," Linni said with a smile.
"Are Miss Luna and Funina on good terms?"
“At least she’s an actress favored by Lady Funina.” Lynette’s tone was inexplicably low.
"Should I not have asked that?" Paimon shrank back.
Ying nodded, then crossed her arms: "Thank you for your help back then, but I still want to ask you a question."
"Please say."
"You know the true identity of the Phantom Thief White Cat, don't you?"
Linnie and Lynette exchanged a glance, then nodded slowly together.
"Yes, she is our family, but... for some reasons, she no longer has any contact with us. As for anything else, please forgive me for not being able to answer."
Ying's expression relaxed somewhat.
"It's okay, I just wanted to know that."
This is just to see if they will keep it a secret forever.
She was sincerely grateful to the two of them and hoped they could reveal some information about Fontaine.
This requires them to make a statement, letting her know whether she can give them the most basic trust.
Of course, as a return gift, she can help if needed.
“Then we’re friends! Come on, we’ll show you around Fontaine. Lynette also wants to know what the world outside Fontaine is like.”
Linne nodded: "Especially Mondstadt and Liyue."
Linnie smiled and said, "After all, it's what Linette likes—"
Lynette nudged Linnie in the chest with a blank expression.
"puff--"
Don't elbow your brother.
109: My daughter and my childhood sweetheart look alike (3rd update)
The perfect curtain call for the collaboration between humans and gods, but the phantom thief's activities have only just begun?
Yesterday, the musical "The Villainess Doesn't Pay Attention to the White Moonlight Heroine" (abbreviated as "The Villainess Doesn't Pay Attention"), starring Lady Furina and Miss Luna and written by Miss Luna, officially premiered at the Opikley Opera House.
The performance was so perfect that it received high praise from the audience, who all raved about it.
"Except for the somewhat long name, everything else is excellent! It's enough to make a name for itself in musical history!" one audience member commented.
"I can't say anything except thank you..."
"It's great, I love watching it, and I want to watch it again." That's how the strongest duel agent commented.
