Catalina was startled for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

"Miss Lianna, I'm worried about you!"

In her arms, little Lina was still holding Liana's waist, stroking her little head constantly, like a child acting coquettishly.

"That bad guy Mr. Hohenheim, he hasn't done anything to you since then, right?" She suddenly raised her head and looked at Lianna with her big eyes full of worry.

Liana's face turned slightly red, Liana bit her lips and said.

"Well, unfortunately, of course not."

Lianna's words were filled with a bit of unwillingness.

"That bastard is a bastard. Sooner or later, I'm going to show him some color."

As she spoke, Little Lina sharpened her little tiger teeth, clenched her little fists and said eagerly, apparently unaware of the small thoughts in Liana's words.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt her shoulders sink, and her back stiffened under the pressure of the delicate hands.

"Lina, don't say such things to Miss Liana? It's very rude."

Immediately afterwards, a soft low moan came from his ears.

Looking back, Catalina stood beside her with a smile on her face, and she had walked over from across the street at some point.

Little Lina was startled for a moment, then realized her gaffe, reluctantly released her hands holding Liana, and stood obediently behind Catalina.

"Miss Liana, good afternoon."

Catalina showed a calm smile and stopped in front of Liana.

Her eyes were like precision scanning instruments, looking up and down Liana's body.

Wheat-colored lace hat, short-sleeved white dress, waistband, and slim silk gloves.

There seems to be no attire suitable for carrying criminal items.

Liana would come downstairs at such a time, arousing Caterina's suspicion.

It was most likely Hohenheim's instigation.

Finally, those sharp dagger-like eyes swept over and stopped at Miss Lianna's hand basket.

Catalina's eyes were slightly cold.

"Miss Liana, what kind of dishes did you buy?"

Keeping her smile, Catalina smiled calmly and looked up at Liana, her fiery red eyes twinkling.

"I just happened to want to make vegetable soup recently and wanted to learn from it."

"Can you please take a look at it?"

"That bamboo basket filled with unknown vegetables, I think I need to learn it myself."

The corners of her lips still maintained a calm arc, and she stood in front of Liana with a smile.

This was her second confrontation today, but it was even more unacceptable than before.

Chapter 9 Confrontation

Liana's smile was very calm.

"Of course, Miss Katarina, please feel free to check."

With a faint smile, she handed the bamboo basket to Catalina with both hands without any hesitation.

"But if you're expecting something suspicious, you may be disappointed."

Catalina nodded slightly and took the food basket with both hands, thinking to herself.

So that’s it, can’t you check it out...

After briefly showing off and confirming that they were all ordinary vegetables, Catalina quickly returned the vegetable basket to Miss Liana.

"Liana bought so many vegetables, so she must be very good at her craftsmanship. I would like to taste them if I have the chance." Catalina said with a faint smile.

"Where, if Lady Catalina is willing, you are welcome to come to my house as a guest at any time."

Taking the bamboo basket with both hands, Liana pursed her lips and smiled softly.

"But I am quite timid. I hope Miss Catalina can let me go next time I go shopping."

Calmly, Liana added another sentence.

Catalina couldn't help but smile bitterly.She actually doesn't like doing this kind of dirty work.

On the side, Little Lina blinked and looked at the two people in confusion.

For some reason, she sniffed and smelled the smell of gunpowder.

"If I visit Liana's sister's house, do I need to be inspected?" Lina tried to ask.

Liana smiled softly, looked down at Lina's sincere eyes, and smiled softly:

"Little Lina is so cute, of course she doesn't need it."

Lina's eyes sparkled, the corners of her lips raised proudly, and she specifically glanced back at Catalina.

hum.

She seemed to be saying with her eyes, look at me, you won't be disliked at all.

Katerina sighed helplessly.

"But today, I'm afraid Miss Lina can't come to my house as a guest~" At this time, Liana suddenly said with a smile.

"Hmm! Why?"

Lina was happy for a second, but then her mood fell to the bottom, and she looked at Liana in confusion.

"Because I don't use these vegetables for myself, but bought them for Mr. Hohenheim."

Liana laughed softly, showing a meaningful smile.

"He is not allowed to go out now. If I don't help him buy seasonal vegetables, he will starve to death, right?"

Little Lina blinked, then opened her eyes wide, her face flushed with anger.

The proposal of house arrest was made by her.

There is no doubt that Liana’s words are secretly aimed at Lina.

But for Lina, her focus is on another thing——

"What, this is actually bought for Mr. Zayu?"

She sharpened her teeth and clenched her fists.

"Shouldn't Mr. Miscellaneous Fish eat fish bait? Learn how to eat vegetables!"

"Forget it if you starve to death!"

This time, even Catalina couldn't stand it anymore.

"Lina..."

Catalina sighed softly and smiled helplessly:

"We just agreed not to be hostile to Mr. Hohenheim anymore, didn't we?"

Lina originally wanted to say something, but when she saw the stern look in Catalina's eyes, she shrank her neck angrily.

"Humph."

Pouting, she turned to look at Liana, not intending to pay any attention to Catalina.

"Sorry, this guy is like that. Although he is a bit talkative, he is still very kind-hearted. Please don't mind."

Katarina smiled apologetically.

"of course not."

Miss Lianna smiled softly, then picked up the bamboo basket full of vegetables in her hand and said:

"If there's nothing else, I'll deliver the food to him first."

"Someone has been waiting at home for a long time. I'm afraid he's so hungry that he can't even stand up~"

Liana teased with a smile, waved her hands at the same time, turned around and left.

Lina pouted dissatisfiedly and squeezed out the word "goodbye" through her teeth.

On the other side, Catalina stared at Liana's leaving back, with a glimmer of light in her eyes.

"Miss Lianna, please continue to help Mr. Hohenheim buy vegetables in the future."

Faintly, she suddenly smiled.

Lianna's steps couldn't help but hesitate, then she slowly turned back, looking at Catalina's unpredictable expression, her beautiful eyebrows slightly frowned.

The corners of Catalina's lips raised slightly, and she bowed and smiled lightly:

"He will be under surveillance for a long time, so please be mentally prepared."

"Of course, I only ensure that the 'food' will be delivered to his home. I can't guarantee whether other things will be delivered."

A breeze blew by, and the two looked at each other and did not move for a long time.

A few simple words set off the powder keg without hesitation.

The two looked at each other from a distance, and neither of them spoke.

After a long silence, Lianna smiled lightly and continued:

"I'll tell Mr. Hohenheim for you."

As she spoke, Lianna nodded slightly, then turned and walked towards the entrance of Building 38 on the street.

The slender and delicate back danced in the breeze, and Bai Suyi's eyes gradually disappeared.

Catalina looked into the distance, her eyes gradually becoming serious.

Although she doesn't hate Miss Liana, if she wants to find out the truth and find pure love and justice, sometimes she has to stand on the opposite side of her friends.

This is the mission given to her as an inspector.

Next to her, Little Lina glanced at Liana who disappeared in the distance, then looked up at Catalina's face, her expression becoming solemn.

The cold wind was blowing, making the leaves on the roadside rustle, making people feel a chill on their backs.

"Katrina, I have a question."

Lowering her voice, Lina spoke calmly, which looked completely different from the intimate behavior just now.

"What would you do if she acted as Hohenheim's spy and secretly inquired about our plans?"

Little Lina squinted her eyes, her eyes a little colder.

Catalina was startled when she heard this, looked at Lina with a rare expression, and then showed a plain smile.

"Don't worry, it won't."

With a slight smile, Catalina turned around and waved her hand, heading back across the street.

"Even if she really acts as Mr. Hohenheim's spy, it is impossible to find out the true purpose of this plan."

Catalina had no expression on her face, took Little Lina's hand, and stepped forward.

Along the street, people were coming and going, and the noisy complaints continued.

The supervisory team members were still happily talking to the pedestrians passing by, chatting without a word.

Don't you hate the Empire of Joy? Invaders will definitely be brought to justice.

It’s all questions that sound completely innocuous.

Facing such a dialogue is in line with Katarina's true purpose.

As long as they are residents of the Kingdom of Pure Love, the answers will remain highly consistent.

——Find out the spies of the Happy Empire.

The corners of Catalina's lips formed a meaningful arc, and her red eyes shimmered.

If you look closely, you can see that some kind of weak magic is staying on.
