Chapter 990
They had this profound feeling of being under the charity of a thief!
This incident directly shocked the City Lord of the Twilight City; almost all the guards in the city had been dispatched to search for the whereabouts of that little thief.
But everyone subconsciously excluded the group of people from The Rising Sun City from the list of suspect. In their minds, such local tyrants who could spend millions of gold coins in a day didn’t have to do such a thing like stealing. The amount lost this night was almost like the amount they spent daily. Since that was the case, it was completely unnecessary for them to do that, right?
Little did they know...
One of those local tyrants that they fancied was the very culprit of this theft case!
Shen Yanxiao woke up when the sun was already high. She changed her clothes and went to the dining room to eat. The five animals was already sitting there and when they saw her, they immediately beckoned her to come and have a meal.
Shen Yanxiao slowly walked over and sat down. The food before them was cooked by a restaurant chef in the Twilight City. Others might have thought it was very delicious, but for the Phantom members who were accustomed to the culinary delicacies of their Chef Yan, these things were not that delicious.
"How was the harvest last night?" Qi Xia supported his chin and looked at Shen Yanxiao, who was still in her night clothes.
Shen Yanxiao drank a mouthful of congee, after which she said, "Just enough to replace the money we spent here in Twilight City."
The five animals had a tacit comprehension in their hearts and immediately understood Shen Yanxiao’s achievement last night.
This little girl was really very wretched. Borrowing people’s money to strike other people’s faces as if it were proper and to be expected as a matter of course. Really made people worship her very much.
The six people were eating, and at this time, Nangong Mengmeng came back from outside. She was still holding a small string of ornaments. As soon as she saw Shen Yanxiao, she flew in her direction.
"Master! Master! I have gossip to tell!" Nangong Mengmeng woke up early, but when she found that Shen Yanxiao was still resting, she did not bother her master's dream and instead wandered around the Twilight City.
And as she wandered around, she heard some really interesting things.
"What happened?" Shen Yanxiao was not completely clear-headed. Her eyes were still a bit sluggish as she stared at the food in front of her and ate a mouthful.
Nangong Mengmeng said with excitement, "I heard that many households in the city had been robbed last night."
"Oh." Shen Yanxiao just continued to eat.
The expression of the five animals was very complicated at this moment.
"Hey, Master, did you already know?" Seeing that Shen Yanxiao did not have much reaction, Nangong Mengmeng wondered.
"I don't know." Shen Yanxiao continued to struggle with the congee.
"It's not just an ordinary thief. It's said to be a very formidable thief. In just a night, that person stole from the warehouses of all the wealthy businessmen in the city. And it's strange that the thief didn't steal all of their money. He actually left a portion for them. Don’t you think that this is such an elegant thief? Stealing yet still wise and just?” Nangong Mengmeng worked hard to deliver everything she had heard from the gossip.
However...
Shen Yanxiao still had no reaction.
Nangong Mengmeng was somewhat disappointed. And she had even relied on this gossip to raise her master’s spirits.
But even though Shen Yanxiao did not react, the expression of the five animals became more and more entangled.
"Masters, what's wrong with you?" Nangong Mengmeng finally realized that her five other masters looked somewhat abnormal.
"Nothing, eat up." Qi Xia calmly opened his mouth. If Nangong Mengmeng learned that the thief from her mouth was her very master sitting opposite her, one did not know what would she think.
