"What's the point of buying so many identical dresses?"

Robinson was immediately embarrassed. She could swear to God that her buying similar clothes every year was purely a coincidence and not an aesthetic defect.

When Robinson and Rice were arguing about the dress, the wind chime on the door rang again.When the visitor walked through the door, the store was quiet for two seconds, and then the three ladies burst into shocking laughter.

Vician and Caschia stood at the door soaked with pink marks on their bodies.

——————————————————————————————

The scene was chaotic for a while. After learning from Visian that they had to pour pink potion from head to toe to pass through the magic circle in order to dispel the magic circle, the ladies made a great decision.

"You should change out of these dirty clothes. We are in a clothing store. We must have clothes you can wear."

Starting from the curious baby Alice, the ladies pushed Vician and Caschia into the compartment, and told them not to leave the store without changing their clothes.

"I haven't seen them wearing other clothes very often."

Robinson, a resident member of the Thieves Guild, said this, so you can imagine how "unkempt" the two men are usually.

The two people changing clothes in the cubicle naturally did not hear the ladies outside talking about them. They were forced to accept the various clothes that Les threw in.

After a while, Vician adjusted the cuffs of his dress and reluctantly walked out of the cubicle, and Caschia also walked out of the next door a moment later.The two of them stood in front of the ladies. This was already the third dress they had changed into.

The ladies finally lowered their noble heads and rated them as qualified.

Needless to say, Vician, who was originally a king, was quite familiar with formal attire, but Caschia was different.His poor strategist had never worn anything like it before, his tie was too tight and his clothes were not neatly straightened.Everyone who couldn't stand it had no choice but to lend a helping hand and clean him up again.

Now, Vician in his blue and white dress stood side by side with Caschia in his dark green dress, praying that the ladies would not take out any more clothes.

Perhaps this dress was indeed suitable for them. Les did not recommend any more clothes. Visian breathed a sigh of relief and decisively changed the topic to Alice and Robinson.

"What are you doing here? Are you here to choose a dress too?"

Knowingly asking, both Alice and Robinson raised the wrapped dresses in their hands.Wei Xi'an suddenly felt tired. In order to avoid another costume appreciation meeting, he urged everyone to go back quickly.

The four people walking on the path attracted a lot of attention, mostly because of the two men walking behind with stiff steps.Alice and Robinson walked ahead, continuing their animated conversation about the ball.As for Vician and Caschia, after they left the clothes they could no longer wear in Les's shop, they couldn't let themselves appear naked on the streets of the imperial capital, right?

In other words, they had to wear inappropriate attire and walk all the way back to the Thieves Guild in the lower city.

"I'd rather be wearing that... No, no, no, no, let's forget it."

Wei Xi'an originally thought about shouting to the two ladies who had nothing to do with him, but then he thought about it, would clothes stained with pink slime really be better than a dress?

In terms of attention span, the former is probably more lethal.

Visian shrank his neck and looked at his good brother.Caschia probably thought so in his heart. He put his hands in his pockets and didn't want to look at anyone around him.

As soon as the four of them returned to the Thieves Guild, Vician and Caschia used their speed to evade the pursuers and rushed into the room to change their clothes.

Alice and Robinson watched their actions from behind. They didn't know why men always have a natural resistance to dressing up.In their eyes, Vician and Caschia's dresses were actually quite handsome.

Chapter No.17: Prom Date

[To my dear friend Kefir

Nearly a week has passed since I left Dai Si'an and arrived in the imperial capital. During this time, many things happened around me.

That's why I wrote this letter now, but I also met a new companion. I'm doing well. Where are you?

Another note: The Light Festival is about to be held in the imperial capital. I really hope you can come with me.

Alice Blake]

——————————————————————————————————

Alice handed the completed letter to the guild members who were about to go out. The letter would be sent to Dai Si'an thousands of miles away with the sender's thoughts.

"I wonder if Kefi'er will reply to my letter?"

Alice lay on the railing and looked at the busy people in the hall below. As the Festival of Light got closer, the Thieves Guild Pelgard also entered working mode for some reason.

Alice looked down from the second floor, and she saw Visian directing the crowd, and it was obvious that he had no time to take care of her.The same goes for Caschia and Robinson. One left the Imperial Capital saying he was going back to the Abyss Crosser's headquarters, while the other also left the guild after being entrusted with intercepting the "Thieves' Wrist" cargo.

Alice suddenly felt abandoned. Even the black cat El, who had been sleeping until now after eating and drinking, never raised his eyes no matter how much Alice teased him.

It's not that she has never been out, but because the festival is approaching, most shops are being renovated, and some businesses have even closed their shops to express that they want to take a good rest.

“What a person with no professionalism at all”

Alice really wanted to say this, but even if she said this, she would only get two big white eyes.

It is one thing to be leisurely, but another thing to do nothing.The little person in Alice's heart was rolling around on the floor while shouting, "It's so boring, it's so boring!" Unable to do the same thing, she could only stare at the air in a daze to pass the time.

Another day passed, and the Light Festival that tens of thousands of people were looking forward to was finally held as scheduled.

Alice got up early in the morning and knocked on the doors of all the people she knew, waking up everyone who was still sleeping.

"Hmm...huh? It's early in the morning, what's wrong?"

"Get up! Get up! The festival has begun!"

The first person Alice knocked on was Vician's door. As for why him?Maybe it's because of my familiarity?

When she opened the door, she saw a ball of cloth bulging on the bed. She didn't have to guess who it was.Alice stepped forward and pulled away the quilt. Visian, who suddenly felt chilled by the removal of the cover in his sleep, opened his eyes. Judging from the dazed look on his face when he spoke, he had not woken up at all.

"Festival, get up quickly!"

Wei Xi'an's mind was not yet clear, and he vaguely heard a few words. When he was fully awake, he had no intention of going back to sleep.

Alice interrupted the incantation she was mid-reciting and looked at Vishian who had already walked out of bed with a slight regret.She was just thinking about using the magic "Gravity" to "help" the other party.

After waiting outside the door for a while, Alice got a Vishian in casual clothes.

They both woke up Caschia soon after.Caschia got up much earlier than the two of them. When the door was knocked open, he was sitting by the window, sipping a cup of early morning black tea.

In the end, there was only one person left, and Alice could not find her. As for where the other person went, she heard from the people living next door that Miss Robinson left before dawn today.

"Probably going to meet my boyfriend."

After hearing this, Wei Xi'an said disapprovingly that it was not a secret that Robinson had a boyfriend, but this was the first time Alice had heard of it.

The girl's attention was quickly diverted. Alice's heart for gossip was blazing. Probably because she had accumulated all the energy from yesterday until today. She eagerly expressed her intention to follow the couple.

"Weren't you still shouting in my ears that you were going to the festival 10 minutes ago? Why are you thinking of following them now?"

"Tsk tsk tsk."

After hearing Wei Xi'an's question, Alice raised a finger and shook it. She said bitterly: "The festival lasts for a whole week, but the girl's love drama will only be staged on that day."

The male compatriots present didn't know for a moment whether to complain about "romantic drama" or "girly girl", but they wisely shut up after seeing Alice's face that could not be refuted.

——————————————————————————————————————————

Wearing a long red dress, Robinson stood on tiptoe in front of the flowers and looked around. From the outside, she looked like an ordinary woman waiting for her lover rather than the female thief known as "Red Sparrow."

Alice hid behind the pillar, followed by Vician and Caschia, although they had no intention of hiding.The three of them found Robinson in the crowded crowd and followed each other's footsteps.

After a few minutes, the "hero" they were waiting for finally showed up. The short man looked around for a moment, then when he spotted Robinson, he squeezed through the crowd and hurriedly stood in front of him.

The three people standing far away could see two people with obvious height differences hugging each other, but they did not hold hands or kiss each other. They just walked towards the vendor together in a harmonious atmosphere.

"Well, aren't they a couple? They are doing things that couples should do!"

Alice puffed out her cheeks. The way the couple got along was completely different from what she expected.

"Ha...that's because Robinson hasn't confessed to that boy yet."

"They have made no progress at all since they first realized it, so..."

"So there is no romance drama here at all. It's time for everyone to retreat!"

Vician and Caschia explained kindly, trying to dispel Alice's interest in tracking, but they obviously underestimated Alice's persistence.

"I'm going to help!"

Alice stood up with a "swish", her right hand was placed on her chest, with an expression of "I want to devote myself to love."Regardless of the strong rejection of the remaining two people, she found a time to quietly call Robinson away from his boyfriend.

Robinson, who discovered that there were three "followers" behind her, had not said anything before her body was forcibly turned to the other side by Alice.Alice stood up on tiptoes hard, stretched out her hand and turned Robinson's face to her. She looked into Robinson's eyes and said, "We are the messengers of love, and we are here to save your love affair that has made no progress."

Robinson was stunned for a while. After she realized what Alice was saying, her face turned as red as her skirt due to shyness.It took a while for her to reply. Fortunately, Robinson's boyfriend was relatively slow and didn't notice anything unusual.

Under Alice's coercion, Robinson recounted his love history without any resistance, which surprised Alice. She did not expect that the other party would be so... cooperative.

Perhaps the lack of progress in the relationship really troubled the person involved, and Alice's impulsiveness (and gossip) became a good driving force.

"In other words, you invite... uh..."

"Clem."

"Yes, Clem. You invite him to the ball, and then take the initiative to confess to him during the ball. Think about it, how romantic that is."

"The euphemistic and beautiful dance music sounds around you, and you dance with him on the dance floor. If you whisper in his ear at this time, he will definitely not be cruel enough to reject you."

Robinson imagined the scene described by Alice, which was indeed very beautiful.After being lost in fantasy for a moment, Robinson finally came back to his senses. Alice was looking at her expectantly.

With a heavy swallow, Robinson accepted the assistance from Alice, and the two ladies looked at the two men who were wandering in their fugue.Vician and Caschia suddenly felt a chill. They turned stiffly to Alice and Robinson, who had suddenly reached a consensus. After looking at their threatening eyes, they nodded desperately to join.

The two Vicians lit a few candles in their hearts for the poor Clem. Robinson's usual ability to make trouble was already very good. Now there is another "combustion accelerant" Alice. This festival will definitely not Peace.

Chapter 18: Prom Date

Alice's plan for Robinson was very simple. After all, the two people had known each other for a long time. The only thing missing was that one of them could take the initiative and say "please date me".

The last kick in front of the goal is probably like this.

Before Robinson went to his own battlefield, Alice pulled her to say something earnestly, and the content was nothing more than some love guides.

I don’t know how Alice, a guy with basically zero love experience, came up with so many things. Could it be that her romance novels came to life and taught her lessons?

No one knows this, so let's just assume that Alice's serious and slightly confident look convinced everyone.

"Remember what I told you!"

"Take courage! We have your back!"

Robinson looked back at Alice who was trying to match her mouth shape behind the pillar, and she extended her thumb.

"give it to me!"

This silent communication was achieved between the two of them.
