Funina, please let me steal your heart!

Linnet nodded slightly.

The wind element accelerated and she quickly retreated backwards.

But in the blink of an eye, Luna flashed in front of her again.

"Want to leave now? No way. Show your true colors."

The raised sword blade flashed before Linnet's eyes.

"Hmm...! Things have come to this..." She reached out, trying to take out the props, but her fingers could only touch an empty secret pocket.

Luna opened her palm, holding small balls between her fingers.

"Is this what you want?"

When was it stolen from me?

Linnet's eyes were solemn. This kind of stealing trick was impossible even for a professionally trained child from the Hearth House.

And what's going on, this feeling of familiarity.

Whether it was the subtle movement of swinging the sword or the feeling his words gave her...

Everything about the Phantom Thief White Cat showed familiarity under her observation, which inadvertently evoked dusty memories.

....................

The biggest difference between Luna and other children is that she is extremely outstanding.

She is not afraid of her "father", and can even be said to like him very much.

At the same time, she can master any kind of knowledge quickly.

Especially swordsmanship, taijutsu and spearmanship.

"No, Linnet, you can't swing the sword like this. You have to cut it out in one swipe, like the sword is an extension of your hand."

"....You are so hard to understand."

But her descriptions of the battles always feel vague.

It's like explaining how to breathe. Maybe that's what genius is.

“Is it that hard to understand?”

"Yes, very much."

"Then let's try to compete. 'Father' also said that the most important thing is feeling. Linnet, you are good at observation and feeling, right?"

Linnet nodded: "Yes, and I have a good memory, I won't forget it."

"really?"

"Of course, I won't forget what happened to Lulu. I remember it clearly."

Linnet counted on her fingers: "Yesterday, I secretly ate the cookies in the kitchen, and I kept following my 'father' around the house. I snored fifteen times at night, and I squeezed a lot of shampoo at once."

“........It’s okay if you don’t remember it so clearly!” Luna said blushing.

"I remember everything about my family, especially Lulu."

"That's enough, come on, raise your swords!

Linnet couldn't help but smile.

Everyone in the Hearth House is her family, and it is the most normal thing to keep family matters in her mind and heart.

But Luna and Linny are special.

Linni is her biological brother, and they have been dependent on each other since childhood.

And Luna... was a ray of light in her nightmare, tearing through the darkness and fear with gunfire.

Even though she no longer had that nightmare, she still felt safe and secure in Luna's presence.

Luna swung her sword quickly.

But it is also beautiful.

I thought she would keep her promise and always be my ray of light.

However.....

"I'm sorry, Linnet..."

Leave. Separate. These words should not appear to her again, and it was Luna who brought them to her again.

...............

The swords collided.

Why....

Linnet still remembers clearly what Luna's sword looked like.

Light, swift, and beautiful, just like what I feel now.

"Why....your sword is the same as Lulu's?"

Her voice was so soft that it was almost blown away by the sword wind, but Luna still caught it.

Luna paused.

The one who would call her Lulu is now Navia, but before there was only one person.

Her childhood sweetheart Linnette.

59: Choosing between "Dad" and girlfriend...

At this moment, both Luna and Linnet immediately understood who was standing in front of them.

The white cat thief is Luna.

The man in black is Linnet.

The other one is Linnie, they were all her former "family members".

And their appearance here only means one thing.

"Father" has set his sights on this place, on Alkeen.

I'm afraid that what she has in her hand is exactly the information that "father" needs.

There was a hint of hesitation in Luna's eyes.

She swung her sword again, forcing Linnet back before stopping. Their eyes met through the mask.

Luna: “..............”

Linnet: “..............”

What's going on? Linnet seems to be a little off. Linnie noticed something was wrong.

The brief silence was replaced by the arrival of support.

"Captain, I'm so sorry that we were attacked by a thief..."

Xiawolei raised her hand to stop the team members from apologizing.

What happened to the white cat thief?

Suddenly she stopped. Could it be that she knew these two people? Xia Wulei's eyes moved around the two of them, but she didn't care.

"Arrest them!"

Intent on seizing valuable evidence, or even attacking.

These two points alone were enough for her to order the arrest of Linnet and Linny.

"Yes!"

The special patrol team and the security team surrounded the three people in layers, equipped with spears, muskets, and several clockwork mechanical dogs that had regained their mobility.

Suddenly, several beams of strong light shone on the three people.

Luna looked up and saw a searchlight that the special patrol team had temporarily installed on the roof of the mansion. The scorching light shone directly on her body, much hotter than the stage lighting equipment.

"You have been surrounded, surrender now!"

Linnet and Linny stood together, looking for a breakthrough.

Luna stood there quietly, she could feel Xiawolei's gaze.

The special patrol team needs this evidence to punish evil and maintain order.

And Hearth House needs it to eradicate sin and root it out. "Father" needs this information.

"White Cat, give me the evidence. You know what it represents," said Chavore.

Linnet's expression was quite complicated.

Who is it?

Special Patrol or Hearth House?

"...I'm sorry, but I can't do that." Luna chuckled and put away the notebook.

Xia Wulei was silent for a moment: "You are not going to hand it over, are you?"

"Yes."

"You know them, don't you?"

Linny reacted belatedly at this time. Linnet's abnormal behavior, coupled with this vague sense of familiarity, could it be that the Phantom Thief White Cat is Luna?

Otherwise, Linnet would never be so abnormal.

Facing the gazes of the two, Luna smiled slightly.

"I don't know her. I just think she's cute."

More beautiful than before.

"Such words——"

Who would believe it? Before Xiawolei finished speaking, Luna turned to face her.

"I changed my mind. I will take this treasure."

Xiawolei's expression remained unchanged, but she was wondering in her heart: What exactly does she want to do?

"....Do you think this is also a treasure?"

Luna pressed her chest and said, "Why not? Every stroke of the pen outlines the sinful deeds, every word and sentence weaves together the ugly truth."

"Decadent words, dirty ink, corrupted souls...isn't this also a different kind of 'beauty'?"

Chavore didn't believe a word she said.

But this is not about trust or not. The evidence she wants is in Luna's hands, but Luna is unwilling to give it to her, and she herself is a sinner.

There is only one result.

Xia Wulei closed her eyes: "What an unreasonable guy... Enough."

Although she had never had any expectations of Luna, she now did feel a little disappointed.

"I will get the evidence from you myself," she declared in a deep voice.

Luna smiled even more. "That's how it has to be. Captain Xiawolei, whom I trust, has to be like this. But I can't just surrender."

She pointed to the searchlight: "Light!"

Then to all the people who surrounded him: "Audience!"

"There's still a stage!" Luna pressed her hands to her chest.

And the passion to perform on stage.
