Prohibiting vigilante justice does not mean prohibiting the use of firearms.
This is the Special Patrol Team.
However, she wouldn't normally do that... But clearly, she couldn't speak politely to this phantom thief, the white cat.
"Then you try?"
Xia Worei instantly moved the gun barrel towards Luna's thigh.
“If you didn’t have legs, you wouldn’t be able to jump that high, would you?” she said.
"Then I can only ask Miss Chavory to take care of me for the rest of my life."
"...........well."
Xia Wore seemed to have grown tired of it and put away her pistol.
This was the first time she had ever met someone so stubborn and fearless, but without such a wicked personality, he probably wouldn't be able to become such a phantom thief.
Luna also put away her pistol, completely disregarding the previous confrontation.
"Getting back to the point, since Miss Xia Wore is unwilling to accept my request, what should we do with this deal?"
"...You want treasure, right?"
"Ah."
Xia Worei put her hands on her hips and said, "I can give it to you, in exchange, tell me what information you have."
Luna's eyes widened slightly.
"What are you doing, your eyes are bigger than a cat's?"
"I just think Miss Xia Wore is even more ruthless than I imagined."
Unfortunately, she wasn't interested.
Treasures that are obtained too easily are always boring.
If Xia Wore would meticulously arrange the scene for her, place treasures there, and have her send a pre-announcement letter, and then compare whether she could catch her again, Luna would be somewhat interested.
It was given away for free, and it didn't taste good.
Stolen, mmm, delicious.
However, Luna decided to listen anyway: "What treasure are you planning to give me?"
"gem."
"Not interested. I don't like treasures that are delivered to my door."
It can't be sold, it doesn't have any points, and it has no commemorative value. What's the use of it besides being pretty?
Xia Worei suppressed her anger. Was this guy determined to drive her crazy?
"Didn't you want treasure?"
"If I want it, I'll go get it myself. I don't want it if it's given to me for free. Just like my math teacher said, there has to be a process."
Just as Xia Worei was about to speak again, Luna tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and continued, "However..."
She raised her index finger.
"I had a pretty good time tonight, and there's no need for any transactions. Let me just send Miss Xia Wore some free intelligence as a gift."
Xia Worei looked on with suspicion; she could hardly believe Luna anymore.
"But you have to come closer, otherwise someone might hear you."
"It's not necessary."
"I think so. If you're not going to do it, then I'll go back." Luna covered her mouth and yawned, seemingly quite sleepy.
But if you attack at this moment, she will definitely turn the tables on you.
After a brief hesitation, Xia Worei nodded.
"If you do anything out of line—"
"How could I? You have to believe me."
Who would believe you?
Xia Wore didn't speak again, and only gave Luna a stinging look as she approached. Of course, her hand was still placed closest to the pistol, ready to draw it at any moment.
Luna's hand twirled a strand of her purple hair.
"I already said..."
"You have too much hair, how can I hear you clearly if I don't lift it up?"
Xia Worei took a breath and endured it.
Luna's breath was close to her ear, and Xia Worei suddenly felt a subtle discomfort. Apart from her mother, she had never allowed anyone to speak so closely in her ear.
But Luna's next words captured her attention completely.
"Beware of the Cabrière Chamber of Commerce."
"What....."
Xia Worei turned her head to look, but did not see anyone.
They really appear and disappear without a trace.
Indeed, just as her name suggested, White Cat... Xia Worei looked around carefully, and only after confirming that Luna had disappeared without a trace did she lower her hand and lift the guard.
"The Gabriel Chamber of Commerce? What does this have to do with a chamber of commerce?"
Les likely has a powerful organization backing him, but to say that the mastermind behind it all is the Chamber of Commerce...
Xia Worei silently began to walk.
"We need to get people to pay attention to it from now on."
She didn't believe the phantom thief's words; the credibility of every single lie spoken by that liar was infinitely close to zero.
In reality, 99% of the work done by the security forces is futile.
False clues, flawed reasoning... it's not uncommon for them to return empty-handed, but even if there's only a 1% chance, they still have to set out and keep their eyes peeled.
To give everything for that 1%—Xiawolei dislikes such gambler-like remarks.
But that's exactly what their work is all about.
So even if it was that con artist cat's words, she couldn't ignore them.
If the information provided is wrong, the punishment will be doubled!
In the distance, after watching Xia Worei's figure disappear, Luna grabbed the falling crimson gem.
Why reveal the name of the Gabriel Merchant Guild? Firstly, because she certainly couldn't tell the truth; the intelligence source for this operation still needed to shine tomorrow. Secondly, because...
"That will save you time and effort."
Since the Gabriel Merchant Guild is going to be investigated anyway, why not let the authorities handle it?
Luna hugged her legs, rested her head on her knees, and smiled, "Work for me, Captain."
23: The girl in the near moon doesn't dream of the heart-grabbing phantom thief.
The Cabrière Chamber of Commerce.
Xia Worei silently murmured the name as she walked back to the Special Patrol Team headquarters.
"Please wait a moment, Miss Chavory!"
The sudden call drew Xia Worei's attention away from her gaze.
Looking up, I saw a familiar figure running towards me, breathless.
Trouble.
Charlotte slammed on the brakes and stopped in front of Chavoret: "May I interview you?"
Reporters from all newspapers are the same; they'll rush over as soon as they smell it.
Although Charlotte is considered a shining example of journalism, she also possesses the quality of relentlessly pursuing any event.
Unwilling to be bothered, Xia Worei said sternly, "No."
"Just a moment, I want to write a report about the phantom thief!"
It's the phantom thief again.
Xia Wore felt they should look for other news instead of focusing on the phantom thief.
Given that deceitful cat's wicked nature, the more exposure she gets and the more attention she receives, the more excited she might become.
"No comment," Xia Wore said again, continuing to walk without hesitation.
Charlotte braced herself against her legs and took a few breaths.
Such situations are not uncommon in the journalism industry, and as a journalist, one should have... to put it nicely, a thirst for knowledge; to put it bluntly, a persistent, relentless pursuit.
Unless the other party is truly unwilling.
So she steadied her breathing, took out her notebook, and chased after him.
Why did the Phantom Thief White Cat destroy the Less trafficking gang?
"I don't know, and I have no need to understand criminals."
Charlotte nodded.
1. The Phantom Thief White Cat did indeed destroy the Les trafficking gang, but the reason is unknown.
Charlotte then asked, "The court seems to have seized a ledger related to Les's sales..."
