Funinna, please let me steal your heart!

No, I've heard that some of the fools in the Winter Solstice Kingdom possess an evil eye similar to the Eye of God, which can unleash elemental power.

Moreover, the famous blonde traveler from abroad is also able to use a variety of elemental powers.

A thought flashed through her mind, and Navia quickly adjusted her position and landed.

If one shot isn't enough, then fire another!

Bang! Bang! Bang! A series of shrapnel projectiles disappeared into the night, but still failed to catch Luna, who had transformed into a water bird.

How could this be...? No, wait...

Navia thought to herself, if she wasn't mistaken, the phantom thief, who had transformed into a water bird, had just accelerated his flight using wind elements!

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed so.

The waterbird's feet were on the void, but suddenly a wave of wind element flowed out.

It flew to the moonlight, causing the water to burst open. Luna transformed back into human form, a cold light flashing in her hand.

"Don't blink!"

"Oh no!" Navia reacted quickly, but as soon as she took a step, the streak of light pierced the floor in front of her toes.

It's a throwing knife.

He took a step back, and the floor next to his heel was blocked by the throwing knife.

There was nowhere to escape, nowhere to retreat.

Luna landed lightly, her sword blade glistening with water, as if preparing to deliver the final blow.

"Such combat skills, two elemental powers... Are you a member of the Fatui?" But Navia remained calm; she still had a trump card up her sleeve.

"I didn't expect you to misunderstand like that. No, it's not like that."

To her surprise, Luna gave a very positive answer.

Navia was taken aback, not expecting Luna to deny it so immediately. She couldn't help but press further, "Then who exactly are you...?"

"He's just a phantom thief who likes to steal beautiful treasures."

Luna smiled and brushed aside Navia's question, then slashed with her sword.

It's now!

"Fire!" Navia pointed her umbrella at Luna, and the golden cannons that appeared behind her roared, firing in rapid succession, raining down on Luna with overwhelming force.

But this was just a cover for firepower, a smokescreen.

Navia stepped on several rocks, using the height to leap into the air, and aimed her gun at Luna amidst the gaps in the clashing shells.

Bang! Bang! Bang! The continuous firing and bombardment kicked up clouds of dust.

Navia landed, panting, "This time it should hit..."

Click.

Suddenly, she clearly heard something fall.

Navia stared wide-eyed, and as the dust settled, Luna's figure appeared before her.

Her mask fell off.

“........!” Navia held her breath and turned her gaze to Luna’s face.

She wanted to know the true face of the phantom thief.

They wanted to know the true identity of the phantom thief.

Who exactly is the phantom thief, White Cat?

Navia's eyes flickered slightly as a face came into view.

"You...you are..."

".....who?"

An unfamiliar face.

And his golden hair has turned silver... Could this be the true face of the phantom thief?

Has she been disguising her appearance all along?

Luna picked up the mask and put it back on.

"I never expected to be taken by Miss Navia the first time. No one but you has ever seen my true face. As expected of the owner of the Rose Society." She smiled.

Why is she so calm?

"...I saw your face, how can you still be so calm?"

"Anger leads to impulsiveness, while sadness makes people hesitate."

Luna twirled her sword: "So I will neither be angry nor sad for anyone. Even if my face is exposed, you still won't be able to catch me."

Navia frowned. Wasn't this just saying that everything was in vain?

She disagrees.

"No, we'll catch you. I've memorized your face."

Luna dusted herself off, revealed a sweet smile, and said in a clear voice, "Then please remember me all the time, and remember me in your dreams too."

Now, she moved as lightly as a leading lady on an opera stage, stepping up to Navia.

Countless footsteps approached hurriedly.

Luna pressed her hand to her chest and suddenly brought her face close: "Only then will you know that what you see, feel, and believe to be true is nothing but a man-made 'truth'."

Bang—the rooftop door was kicked open.

"Don't move, Special Patrol Team..."

Before Xia Worei could finish speaking, she realized something was wrong.

The members of the Rose Society lying on the ground, Navia standing still, the obvious signs of a fierce battle... She sighed, having already understood the whole story.

"They escaped?" she asked.

"Um... I'm sorry."

"It's ok."

Xia Wore didn't think that the Phantom Thief White Cat could be such a criminal who could be caught so easily.

Besides... she also needs information about the phantom thief.

"But I saw it."

"....What?"

Navia whispered, "The face of the phantom thief, White Cat. Her real face."

Xia Worei looked surprised.

"Then we'll be able to catch her very soon!?" Tyrena exclaimed in delight.

No... Xia Worei narrowed her eyes.

This is most likely a smokescreen; that liar cat couldn't possibly make such a basic mistake.

Where is she? She's definitely still watching this side.

Xia Worei sensed the gaze and, in a daze, caught a familiar look and followed it.

Sure enough, Luna was sitting on the roof of a distant house with her legs crossed. Even without looking closely, Xia Wore knew that she was definitely smiling.

Were you deliberately revealing your "true face" just now...?

After exchanging glances for a few seconds, Xia Worei looked away.

"...Then come with us. Could you please make a note of her appearance?"

She spoke casually, seemingly unaware of Luna's presence at all.

45: Partners who won't last long

"Is this the true identity of the Phantom Thief White Cat?"

"Yes, just like what I saw."

Inside the Special Patrol Team headquarters.

The special patrol team members sat around a table, passing around portraits of each other.

This is a portrait drawn based on Navia's description. Although the "phantom thief" in the painting has a smile that makes people inexplicably harden their fists, it must be said that she is indeed beautiful and charming.

Tirena blushed and said, "She's quite pretty."

"The more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is!"

"Isn't our captain very beautiful? Are you saying she's dangerous?"

"No, no, I wouldn't dare..."

Because it is indeed very dangerous.

The portrait eventually returned to Chavoret's hands.

She rested her chin on her hand, gazing thoughtfully at the portrait.

The so-called truth can be packaged, and the true nature of the phantom thief White Cat is probably no exception.

But what is her purpose?

Was it just an attempt to tease them?

"There's no reason, I'm just bored." — That's what she might say, which is really annoying and infuriating.

Just thinking about her musket made her furious. Xia Wore took a deep breath.

She handed the portrait to Tirena.

"Hand it over to the security team."

After all, this isn't the job of the special patrol team.
