The heavy footsteps approached little by little. Gureda turned around with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

The clockwork mechanism that appeared before his eyes was obviously not of standard configuration. It had a heavy frame and armor, and its overall size was far larger than any other type of clockwork mechanism.

This is undoubtedly more threatening.

Gu Leida laughed loudly, "Hahaha, you actually kept the scariest and most powerful style. I really don't know if you are too arrogant or you are just thinking about committing suicide!"

He rushed to the clockwork mechanism, opened the armor in front of it, and hid himself inside.

The armor plates closed, the spring twisted, and the mechanism made a stiff clicking sound, and then it aimed the launcher on its arm at Luna.

"How is it? The materials used in this clockwork mechanism are not comparable to the junk equipped by the security team! As long as I sit here, you can't catch me... What are you doing?"

Luna held the pocket watch and watched the second hand move.

"One second, two seconds, three seconds..."

Gureda yelled, “Don’t ignore me!”

Countless projectiles poured out from the launcher of the clockwork mechanism.

Although its trajectory and accuracy are poor, it has a fast firing rate and a large amount of bullets. Even experienced adventurers will be defeated by this weapon.

However, a major disadvantage of this clockwork mechanism with thick armor is that it turns very slowly.

Luna jumped up, turned over lightly, and a cold light flashed in her hand, which turned into ten streams of light that pierced the joints of the clockwork mechanism.

"Flying knife!?" Gu Leida had a bad feeling.

As expected, the movement of the clockwork mechanism became extremely stiff. When it wanted to aim at Luna, it was always half a beat slow, and this brief moment was its fatal weakness.

boom!

The bullet ruthlessly destroyed the transmission device of the clockwork mechanism, and the operation of the clockwork mechanism stopped for a moment.

Gureda saw Luna approaching with a leap, splitting the armor at a key part with a sword, and then reaching out to grab the core component.

"Wait, don't..."

Pull hard!

The clockwork mechanism seemed to let out a mournful cry, and there was a dry sound of parts rubbing against each other, and the whole body was shaking.

It could no longer move and had become a piece of fish that could be slaughtered at will.

"7 seconds."

The sword glowed with water light, and Luna danced with the sword in ethereal and illusory steps.

The elegant sword moves conceal deadly murderous intent.

It was clearly an ordinary one-handed sword, but it could cut through iron like mud. With each sword move, she cut the clockwork mechanism into pieces, split the armor plate, and cut off the transmission structure.

"12 seconds."

Then lift your foot and kick it high.

The gathered wind elements transformed into a powerful impact force, and with just one kick, Luna kicked the clockwork mechanism into the air.

Gureda had never felt so close to the sky.

In a trance, a bird made of water flew across the sky.

The water birds turned into human figures.

Luna twisted her body and spun out.

Bang! The kick, which was blessed with the power of the wind element, mercilessly knocked the clockwork mechanism down, making a dull sound and spider-web-like cracks.

The clockwork mechanism could no longer move, revealing Gu Leida, who was hiding inside with a dazed look on his face.

Luna landed lightly and took out her pocket watch.

"15 seconds. It lasted longer than I thought. It's really durable. It deserves praise." She tapped Gureda's face with the gun and smiled.

What kind of thief is this?

It's clearly a devil wearing a mask!

"Then... go to sleep."

Luna put away her pistol, kicked Gulera unconscious, and threw him outside the clockwork mechanism. She searched his body and took out a notebook.

Written on it are the names of all the people who have purchased Leshi.

"Mary Bestina", "Judith"... and many other unfamiliar names, with some notes written next to the names.

*Sent*

*Debt to be paid*

And so on.

The industrial chain involved in Lesi is undoubtedly huge, and you can understand what these annotations mean without much thought.

After coming into contact with Le Si, countless families disappeared without a trace.

Where did he go after he disappeared? The answer is obvious. Without money, he could only sell his flesh and blood.

Luna took the blood-red gem from Guredada and held it towards the bright moon.

"The fruits born of sin always have an incredible magic, don't you think so, Miss Xiawolei?"

Hurried footsteps were approaching, and many special patrol team members and security team members surrounded them.

Xiawolei looked around.

There were people wailing on the ground, scattered music, goods still burning... and the clockwork mechanism that had been dismantled beyond recognition and was in a horrible state.

"....Do you even steal from criminals?"

20: You are more beautiful than a rose

Rather than being a thief, he is more like a robber.

I've never seen a thief who made a mess of the scene.

What's more, the stolen items were treasures from fellow criminals. Is this what they call thieves robbing thieves?

There was no way Xia Wole could be wrong; the liquid in these bottles was none other than the "magic potion" that had once been all the rage in Baisong Town.

Later, its hallucinogenic and addictive properties were known to the former president of the Rose of the Thorns, Carles Casapa, and Les was banned completely.

After that, the case of "Injustice of Kares" emerged.

It's hard to say there's no connection between the two things.

But the case has been concluded... Xiawolei withdrew her gaze and looked back at the thief who was contentedly surrounded by guns.

Did she cause the explosion on purpose? To attract the special patrol's attention?

Luna put away the gem and tried to move her feet.

"Don't move!" the special patrol team members shouted.

She was not surprised, but she said, "Don't you think Miss Chavore should deal with the filth here first, rather than me?"

"Dirty things?"

“The bottles and cans.”

"I know," said Xiawolei. "I'm just surprised that you hate them so much."

"I told you, I like beautiful things."

Luna ignored the gun pointed at her, spun around, and said in a clear voice: "Beauty is something that makes people feel happy and joyful when they look at it."

“Even if you look away from them, the feeling they leave will always remain in your heart, and every time you think of them, you can’t help but marvel at their exquisite craftsmanship.”

"Les doesn't count?" asked Chavore.

"No, if I have to say..."

Luna had a playful smile on her face: "Ms. Xiawolei is more in line with the criteria of a treasure."

Xiawolei responded coldly: "Harassing the special patrol team is an aggravated crime."

"But you can't catch me."

"Provoking the special patrol team, one more level."

Luna showed no fear at all and sighed, "Then I am really a sinful woman."

She leaped high into the air and landed on the tree.

It really looks like a cat. This thought flashed through Xiawolei's mind.

"Are you going to run away with your tail between your legs again?" Xia Wulei's tone was indifferent, but the words between the lines were full of provocation.

She was betting that this thief, who had a strong desire to show off, might choose to mess around with them for a while to satisfy his twisted psychology, and that would be the opportunity to capture her.

"Yes, I'm going to escape."

Luna was not affected at all and bowed.

Why can he make running away sound so easy? Xia Wulei sighed.

"If you think that a small thief is more evil than the source of evil that has brought disaster to the entire Fontaine and plunged countless people into despair, I don't mind continuing to play with you."

Luna said cheerfully, "But don't blame me for being completely disappointed in you all when the time comes."

Xiawolei asked in surprise: "Disappointed?"

I really didn't expect that a thief would have expectations for their law enforcement court.

This feeling is really strange.

"Correct."

"Would you expect anything from someone who wants to put you in jail?"

"Why not? Justice is indispensable in Fontaine, isn't it?"

After saying this, Luna jumped into the distance.

The special patrol team members were about to pull the trigger, but Xia Wulei raised his hand and shouted stop.

"Stop... There's no need to waste bullets. The rifle won't work on her."

Tirena put down her rifle in confusion, wondering: "Captain, are we just going to let her go?"

Xia Vole did not answer immediately, but walked to the Les who was lying on the ground and picked up a notebook on the ground.

".......Seal off the scene. What we need to do tonight is to send these people to jail."

"Yes!"

The police cordon was set up, roadblocks were placed, and the special patrol team stood guard with guns. Then the Meilushin of Zhuyingting came together to investigate and collect evidence.

"Quickly put out the fire!"

"I'm coming."

Water cannons quickly extinguished the still burning cargo.

Xiawolei flipped through the notebook in her hand again.

She knew that this time, no matter what the reason was for the Phantom Thief White Cat to destroy the Les trafficking gang, the Phantom Thief had indeed done a just thing.

However, there is no such thing as completely expiating sins with merits in the law; there is only a reduction in sentence.

The Phantom Thief is still a criminal who needs to be arrested.

The reason why she was allowed to escape was simply because crimes can be serious or minor, big or small.

Eliminate the greater of two evils, that's all.

Xiawolei had no doubts about this, but she still had a question in her heart: Why did the thief do this?

Are they simply targeting the treasures in the hands of these gangs and destroying them by the way?

should be.

But how did she know that there was a Les trafficking gang in this place? Did she have information that the Enforcement Court and the Shadow Chasing Court did not have?
