Chapter 36 Theft is bad behavior

After that, the three people visited and investigated some places, but they did not find any useful clues. However, these were all expected situations, so they were not in a hurry, and took their time to search for some information and materials, and to think and discuss.

Get some clues from it in advance.

It's just that their scope of action has been limited to the Bronze Avenue. They walked to the entrance of the slums several times, looked inside for a few times and then turned around and left. However, this wandering behavior was enough to arouse the vigilance of people in the "over there world".

The disguises of Felicia and the other two people are actually just to deceive ordinary passers-by. In the eyes of experts, they can tell at a glance that they are three aristocrats who have no fingers in the water, which are the so-called "fat sheep".

This was also one of their plans. If they couldn't find the person who stole it, they would let the thief come to them.

Generally speaking, peers are jealous of each other, so no matter what occupation they are, they will definitely find out the situation of their peers when they are conducting activities in a certain area. After all, peers are always their biggest opponents, so as long as they hook a thief, they will find out

A den of thieves.

The person in charge of the operation was Felissa. She looked around and locked her eyes on a small stall. It was a stall selling hand-squeezed juice. They happened to be a little thirsty after walking for so long, so Felissa went there.

After walking to that stall, Nancy and Safi entered another store to make inquiries. It seemed that the three of them separated.

But in fact, Nancy and Safi just stood in the blind corner of the store, paying close attention to the situation on Felissa's side with their two pairs of eyes.

Felissa walked to the stall and took out a wallet. As soon as the wallet was taken out, it attracted countless hidden eyes.

There was no other reason than that the wallet was too finely made and looked like something that could never appear on Bronze Avenue. Then Felissa took out a banknote from the wallet and handed it to the stall owner.

The stall owner was stunned and expressed embarrassment that he couldn't find it.

The banknotes that Felissa took out were the smallest denominations that nobles carried when going out, but even so, they were denominations that ordinary civilians would never see in their lives. The stall owner never expected that such a big customer would come today.

"It doesn't matter," Felissa smiled nonchalantly. She still had dozens of banknotes of this denomination with her. She said gently, "Just do your best. If you really can't find the rest, don't look for them."

The stall owner had a frown on his face and dug out all the change he had on him before he managed to collect the change. Felissa didn't even count the money, she just put the money into her wallet, turned around and left with three glasses of juice.

She didn't take a few steps when she was bumped into by a child. She was already holding three glasses of juice, which was a bit wobbly, but after being hit like this, she lost her grip and the juice was knocked over.

Felissa let out an exclamation, subconsciously lowered her head to check, and saw a large amount of spilled juice splashed on her dress.

"Who is he?" She complained, looking at her sticky hands in distress, not knowing what to do. Her mind couldn't help but think that it would be great if Azarez was here at this time, he must have a handkerchief on him.

Perhaps the stall owner couldn't bear it, so he reminded: "Miss, please take a look to see if you have dropped anything."

After being told this, Felissa reacted and realized that her wallet was missing. She had just taken out her wallet to pay the bill. Now that it was missing, there was only one possibility, that is, the child just stole her wallet when he hit her.

gone.

Although this was their plan, Felissa didn't expect it to be a child... The child looked to be only five or six years old. Is such an old child already starting to steal?

Nancy and Safi gave her the answer. Nancy held the child by the collar with one hand, stretched out her hand, and allowed him to punch and kick her. However, the short hands and feet that were not yet developed really could not pose any threat to Nancy.

Safi returned the things the child had stolen to Felissa. For some reason, Safi's face didn't look good.

In addition to a wallet, there is also a bracelet.

Felissa didn't care much about the wallet, because it was public money, specially used as bait, but this bracelet made Felissa angry.

Azarez put it on her personally in the morning, and it belongs to her!

Felissa originally sympathized with this child. In the final analysis, such a young child learned to steal because he was in such an environment. However, rationality and sensibility are always two different things. Felissa naturally felt the gift given by Azarez.

She valued it and touched the gift Azarez gave her, which made her little sympathy disappear.

"Today's mission is completed," Nancy smiled at the two of them, "I caught a little 'demon'."

This joke made Safi unable to laugh, but she couldn't let others see anything unusual, so she turned around and pretended to look at the surrounding environment.

But who is Felissa? Her sensitivity to emotions can even be said to be intuitive. She sensed Safi's mood swings the moment she looked over. She looked over in confusion and saw Safi's body tense and her arms folded in front of her chest.

, this is a defensive posture, so what happened to make Safi feel threatened and need to "protect" herself?

Is it because of what Nancy said just now? However, what was wrong with what Nancy said just now?

Felissa felt that she had a vague clue, but now was not the time to think about it, because they had to take the child back for questioning.

Nancy tied the child with a rope, put it on her shoulders and left.

Even though she knew Nancy's true nature, Felicia couldn't help but twitching at the corner of her mouth when she saw Nancy's actions. Since she was born in this world, the girls she has come into contact with are not only noble and dignified, but at least they are relatively quiet.

, even if you are extravagant, you still have a degree, Nancy's... is a bit too heroic.

The boy struggled and squirmed on Nancy's shoulder. He was still just a child after all. He shouted "Help" loudly, and at the same time looked at the passers-by with hopeful eyes, hoping that someone would be willing to save him.

But this is impossible. People passing by just want to hide as far away as possible for fear of being dragged down.

It’s not that the boy doesn’t understand this truth. Although he is young, many people have told him: Don’t provoke the nobles, otherwise you don’t know how you will die.

But he was still greedy for a while. With so much money, if he succeeded in stealing it, he would no longer have to starve and could have a meal of meat.

Children are so simple. The boy's biggest wish is just to have a full meal of meat, but who cares about his reasons?

Nancy took people to a station of the Knights, borrowed a carriage from them, and drove the carriage to the palace. They also had to take the boy back to life.
