"She's a girl. She seems to be very pretty."

Paimon and Ying looked at each other. A female thief who likes to tease girls?

"Does she have any strange habits?" Paimon asked.

Ying shook her head. She had no idea. She could only hope that she would not have to meet the Phantom Thief White Cat.

Their purpose is not to cause trouble - unless it is necessary.

The scale of the festival was bigger than they had imagined, with stalls even set up outside the city.

"Burp. My belly has gotten bigger..." Paimon touched his belly.

Eating too much is also a pain.

Ying poked her belly and was about to say something when she suddenly heard a scream.

"There's a monster!"

Looking up, a group of monsters were approaching quickly. Perhaps attracted by the noise of the festival, the guards rushed forward to meet them.

"There are some here too...don't come over here!"

But a monster also appeared on the other side.

Paimon exclaimed, "Ying!"

Needless to say, as an adventurer you certainly can't just sit back and watch this happen.

Ying nodded, conjured up a long sword, jumped up and kicked.

The wind element exploded! The monster was blown into the sky by the sudden tornado.

It’s a good time to try the water element.

Ying made up his mind, the sword blade shone with light, and two water waves turned into slashing attacks.

Finally, it was the lightning element! He charged up his strength and slashed it. The leaping purple light instantly slashed the monster into pieces. The three elemental forces took turns to fight. Ying, who showed his strength, retracted his sword and turned around.

"It's okay now." She smiled at the others.

"Thank you very much!"

"What a cool big sister!"

Paimon floated over and asked, "Are you not hurt?"

"No big deal, it's okay.... huh?"

"what happened?"

Ying frowned slightly. The people looked at her with gratitude and curiosity, but the guards looked at her with... suspicion and vigilance?

She had a bad feeling.

"...Let's go, Paimon."

"Eh?"

Ying put away the sword and left quickly.

Paimon was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed: "What's wrong? You look a little nervous."

"It seems we are being watched by the security forces."

“Ah!? W-Why?”

As soon as he finished speaking, noisy footsteps came from all directions.

The security team and the security agencies surrounded the two.

"Wow!?" Paimon shouted.

"Target confirmed!"

"The Phantom Thief can change his appearance, but he can use multiple elements..."

Ying looked around vigilantly. The guards just surrounded them and had no intention of fighting.

But with this defensive posture, it's hard to guarantee that they will be let go.

"Could it be the legendary traveler?"

"Phantom thieves can change their appearance, so we can't be sure they're not pretending... Anyway, we'll know after we confirm it first."

"Miss, can you come with us..."

At this moment, a member of the security team suddenly couldn't stand it anymore: "No, she must be the Phantom Thief! Damn Phantom Thief, she cannot be forgiven!"

After she finished speaking, she swung her sword towards Ying.

Why did he attack directly? Paimon's face turned pale.

Ying immediately raised her sword to block, then turned around and kicked the opponent away.

"....Paimon, hold on to me."

"Eh?"

I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't let them catch me...

Ying made up his mind, grabbed Paimon, summoned the rocks, and used the momentum to leap up and over the guards.

"She's going to run away!"

"How to do?"

".....Catch up. But before that..."

The captain of the security team grabbed the member who had just attacked and asked: "Who bribed you?"

"I......"

The rest of the guard team looked at each other.

Is there a bribed traitor among them?

Under the obstruction of the security team, Ying and Paimon had to return to Fontaine, but in the city, those chasing them were no longer limited to the security team and the special patrol team.

As soon as they heard the guards shouting "Phantom Thief White Cat, stop!", more and more people gathered.

"Master Phantom Thief~!"

Why are there still fans! ?

"There are so many people, more and more! What on earth did this Phantom Thief do? We are obviously not the real Phantom Thief. Ying, there is no need for us to run, right? If we talk nicely..."

Ying shook her head: "Something is not right, and proving oneself is a very passive thing. Rather than being caught, we should wait for the thief to appear and then appear together..."

"Yes!"

This way, you will be directly cleared of all charges.

Even if they are asked why they are running away, they can just say that they are afraid.

But the problem is, how can I escape safely when so many people are chasing me?

"stop!"

A beautiful figure suddenly fell from the sky, and the axe hit the ground, forcing Ying and Paimon to stop.

Navia raised her head and said, "White Cat the Phantom Thief, I have something I want to ask you..."

His eyes reflected Ying's wary expression.

"......Huh? Who are you?" Navia blinked and didn't recognize her for a moment.

This doesn't look like a thief, does it?

Rather, it's more like a famous traveler....What's going on?

Ying didn't respond and immediately turned into the alley.

"Here!"

A special patrol team that was ready suddenly appeared from the other side.

Xia Volei raised his rifle and said, "You actually stole the treasure at this time, you... huh?"

She narrowed her eyes.

There is no feeling of a white cat.

"....You are not a white cat." Xia Wulei put down the gun in confusion.

Ying paused, and when she heard the sound behind her, she had to turn into another corner, climb onto the roof, and then jump down again.

"This way!" Someone suddenly called her.

She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man in a top hat waving at her.

"Come over here, or you'll be caught!"

Sensing the movement behind, Ying hesitated for a second, then followed the boy with Paimon and came to a hidden corner.

The other girl seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Okay, you are safe here. I didn't expect you to be so reckless as to steal treasures at a festival like this where all security forces are deployed—" Linnie sighed.

"elder brother."

"What's wrong Linnet?"

Linnet deadpanned, "She's not."

"Eh?"

Linnie turned around in shock and looked at Ying carefully.

He didn't know every detail about Luna like Linnet did, but he did feel a little out of place.

And if Linnet said she was not Luna, then she really wasn't.

You look at me, I look at you...the four of us looked at each other's faces.

"Ahaha..." Linnie finally laughed awkwardly.

He thought that Luna's identity was exposed and they came to pick her up, but it turned out not to be the case. He was also wondering if Luna should be in the lounge?

It's impossible for Funina to discover my true identity.

Then something went wrong.

"....Stupid brother."

"...Stop talking."

The noisy sound was approaching.

Linnett pricked up her cat ears: "Here you come, hide."

Linnie nodded, took out a large piece of cloth from his hat, covered the four people's heads with it, and then quickly set up the wooden frame.

To outsiders, they are now just a box.

"Don't make any noise, and hide your breath."

Paimon covered his mouth.

Ying was a little surprised. They didn't push her out? But she nodded and hid her breath.

A rumbling sound whizzed past....that's how it should be.

"Stop?" Paimon whispered.

"...It should be the person himself." Linnet whispered.

Me?

Linny sensed it carefully, nodded, and put away the cloth and the rack: "You can go now, don't worry, she is here, your innocence is beyond doubt."

"She? Do you mean—"

Linnet nodded, her tail wagging, "The real Phantom Thief White Cat."
