Without exception, none of them had any highlights. Although there was some light, it was so faint that one might think it was an illusion.
If they made these fakes even more convincing and the light even brighter, it would give her a little trouble.
"What a pity." Luna shook her head slightly.
"...What's there to regret?"
Luna did not respond, her gaze sweeping across the scene, and the final result was as expected.
She walked straight up to Navia, reached out, and picked up the wine glass next to her.
"What are you doing with my cup?" Navia asked, frowning.
Navia's lip print was still on the rim of the cup.
Luna swirled her wine glass; it was indeed quite heavy. "It's nothing, I just noticed that all the wine glasses at this banquet are rather thick, and they're not even made of glass."
Gran replied awkwardly, "So what if it's thick?"
"No, I think it's fine. If you don't mind, I'll accept this cup."
Navia hesitated, "You...you want my cup? Why don't you ask for someone else's? Why does it have to be mine?"
Luna blinked and said, "Because I think Miss Navia is very beautiful?"
“Who would believe such a thing!” Navia put her hands on her hips, looking wary.
The moment Luna put the cup away, Elle anxiously shouted, "Quickly, capture the phantom thief!"
The servants pulled out weapons from under the food carts and rushed over.
The sudden change took the guests by surprise.
Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't she only pick out a wine glass?
Could it be that......
Navia understood everything!
"The wine glass is a genuine jade glass!"
A slight smile flickered across Luna's lips as she faced the menacing servants.
"To be precise, the rock jade cup was sealed inside the wine glass."
She raised her hand: "But it's time to take my final bow."
Snap. With a snap of the fingers, the banquet hall suddenly went dark, and even the bright moon outside the window seemed to be obscured by dark clouds, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face.
"what happened?"
"light...."
Silver: "It's here! The phantom thief's most common tactic: turning off the lights!"
Miles: "I can't see anything."
Silver pushed up his sunglasses: "Indeed, it's really dark."
Strangely, the darkness also seemed to swallow up the sound.
There was no sound from the servants, nor from the phantom thief.
...Could this be...?
A guess immediately flashed through Navia's mind.
The moment her intuition struck, she immediately got up, pushed open the door, and rushed towards the stairs.
"Miss!"
"Let's follow too!"
The members of the Rose Society hurriedly followed and rushed to the door.
Elle was frantic: "Hurry up and turn the lights back on! -- Where are they? Where did everyone go?"
Just then, the lights suddenly came on again.
"Wow!?" someone exclaimed.
Because the servants of the Franwright family had all fallen to the ground, unconscious, without any visible external injuries, but they were clearly knocked down by a single blow.
On their bodies, there was a conspicuous card.
The card had a message written on it:
"I have a bit of cleverness, but not much; I have a bit of courage, but not enough strength to match it; instead of thinking about crooked ways, I should start from scratch and be down-to-earth."
"Those who think they can win everything by being the house, don't realize that the real winners are always the people outside the casino."
"Have you tasted the bitterness of having nothing? If you're still not satisfied, I'm always ready to play with you two again, because I'll always be the winner."
Signed: Phantom Thief White Cat.
Their expressions immediately became distorted.
All that elaborate preparation was cracked in less than a minute. So many people came and only saw their blunder, and now they're being mocked by this damned phantom thief!
Click! The sound of the phonograph machine rang out.
The Franwrights came to their senses.
"Stop taking pictures! If you keep taking pictures, I'll smash your camera!"
"That despicable phantom thief!"
The guests present felt full after seeing the couple's exasperated behavior.
Yes, I'm full.
Wait, where's their money? They looked hurriedly at the food delivery truck.
Still.
That's alright then... This phantom thief is really something else; he said he only steals treasures, and he really does.
And tomorrow will probably be another day when the phantom thief dominates the headlines.
"What a wonderful performance!" someone suddenly clapped.
"The Phantom Thief White Cat is truly amazing!"
"I thought the phantom thief would be defeated, but I didn't expect his opponent to be so weak..."
"I'm a reporter from XX newspaper. How are you two feeling right now?"
"Show them out! See them all out!"
An elegant banquet has turned into a chaotic vegetable market.
at the same time.
Navia climbed the stairs and arrived at the rooftop.
As soon as she pushed open the door, a strong gust of wind rushed in. Navia squinted and saw Luna with her back to her, as if she had been waiting for her.
She took a few steps closer, about to speak.
"Miss!"
At this moment, Silver, Miles, and other members of the Rose of the Thorns caught up.
Hearing the noise, Luna turned around and smiled, "It's been a long time, Miss Navia. It's rare for us to meet. Would you like to have a chat?"
43: If you catch me, you can do whatever you want with me.
The phantom thief in front of me stood with an elegant posture, and the smile on his face was as gentle as if he were seeing a beloved friend.
Navia suddenly had a strange feeling.
It was like... it was like... she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was like, but it just felt somewhat familiar.
But how could that be? She and the phantom thief, White Cat, had only met twice, including this time.
“Yeah, it’s been a long time, but you don’t seem to have any intention of starting over.” Navia thought to herself, the special patrol team must be nearby.
She needs to stall for time so that she can catch the phantom thief as quickly as possible.
"I think I'm fine as I am now, and I have no plans to become anything again."
The relationship changes when there's a mask between you and the person.
Friends by day, enemies by night.
Interpersonal relationships are truly amazing.
Luna remarked with a sigh, "Miss Navia seems to have been quite active lately."
“I’ve always been very active, but I recently met some really good friends! If Lulu were here, you definitely wouldn’t be able to escape.”
Luna couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"What are you laughing at?" Navia said unhappily. She couldn't stand people laughing at her friends.
"I just suddenly thought of something happy."
Luna strode forward, walking casually, her fingertips touching: "I heard she's a celebrity?"
Anyway, she's a phantom thief now, so it doesn't matter how much she teases Navia, right?
Navia approached slowly: "That's right, but she's also a very perceptive detective."
"Her reasoning skills aren't very good, are they?"
Navia appeared even more displeased.
"But she cleared the name of the deceased and gave the living the truth. To the victim's family, she is a hero, unlike you."
"Why...why did you steal someone else's treasure?"
He is clearly capable of doing good deeds.
