The news that Villette issued a letter of challenge to the thief Youlin in the name of the judge and Momang Palace was reported directly on the headlines of major newspapers in Fontainebleau during the next day.

The hot news in recent times is either related to the Inquisitor Navilette, or to the big thief, or else it is the daily love life of Leosley and Yu Shui, a popular couple.

The news suddenly dominated the news, and almost all reporters rushed to report it. Of course, Charlotte was the first to write it in the newspaper. This news attracted applause from the vast majority of Fontaine residents.

Just like what Yu Shui once analyzed, the people of Fontaine like to watch plays and lively trials. Therefore, when the thief just steals the ladies' treasures, they all like to see it. But once the thief turns into a murderous thief, Supporters who were just enjoying themselves will turn against the trend of public opinion.

Moreover, the trial of a thief who has been active in Fontaine for six years and has never been arrested, wouldn't it be a grand and exciting trial scene?

When the newspaper was brought to Yu Shui, he was sitting on a chair in Arecino's room at Beiguo Bank, silently watching the detailed description of his crimes in the news.

For example, "Even if the half-year-old child cried and begged for mercy, it could not melt the cold-blooded coldness of You Lin. He slashed the child's neck with a knife and blood overflowed."

It was as if she had seen it with her own eyes. Charlotte...are some of your self-editing abilities a bit too strong?

"Oh? Now our Mr. Thief is at the forefront of the storm again. You don't seem to be in a good mood. Is this newspaper exaggerating?"

"It's more than that. It can be read as a second-hand article, but I'm not in a bad mood. More than that...I feel like I'm in good shape."

Yu Shui put down the newspaper in his hand with a smile and looked at the milk tea that Arecino invited him into, but lost the mood to taste it.

This kind of behavior was obvious to Arlecino. This guy was being tough again.

"Although I don't dare to claim to know you well, I also know that you are far from being such a cruel person. This news is probably dirty water."

"Do you know again? I probably killed more children of the same age in the Treasure Thief Group than the children in the entire Hearth House. Don't think I'm very kind..."

Being tough-talking again.

Arecino sometimes really hates some of Yu Shui's characters.

But regarding this matter, her opinion was naturally that she should not fight. This choice was the most beneficial to Yu Shui.

"Do you need help? I can reluctantly pretend to be you again."

"Forget it, aren't you still preparing for the meeting with the Water God? I heard that they arranged the meeting after the challenge day. Remember to help me scare that guy Funina."

"Personal grudge? I understand, that's all...you have your own affairs, so I won't care about it. I hope I can still see you so alive after the incident, so I won't send you away."

Arecino saw that Yu Shui wanted to leave, so he said the farewell words in advance.

He drank up the milk tea Arlecino served him in one gulp. It was sweeter than usual... Her thoughts were sometimes easy to guess.

"Thanks."

……

On the way out, in the corridor of Beiguo Bank, the soldiers of the Foolish People turned a blind eye to Yu Shui's appearance, but he was stopped by Linni and Linnet.

The young magician was panting and looked at Yu Shui with questions in his eyes.

"Hey, Mr. Yu Shui, the massacre of the treasure thief group that has been widely circulated recently was not actually caused by you, right?"

“How come you see?”

"You... I don't know you very well, but you always have the elegance and noble temperament of an artist. Such a person... would not intentionally attack innocent people."

He doesn't know much about it, but he is very confident in this conclusion. Linnette behind him seems to think so too... These siblings are quite interesting.

"...So what, what does it have to do with you?"

"Don't... don't talk like that. I just can't bear to see innocent people being splashed with dirty water. Is there anything we can do for you?"

As if a little hurt by Yu Shui's cold attitude, Linni scratched his head in embarrassment and offered to help.

As a result, I felt a tap on my forehead.

"?"

"No need. I advise you not to have a good relationship with me, or you may get into trouble. Your status as fools is very sensitive in Fontainebleau."

After Yu Shui gently tapped Linni on the head, he left a relaxed smile and turned around and left without looking back.

You can still hear his voice coming from behind.

"Who am I? The biggest thief in Fontaine who has not been arrested and brought to justice for six years since his debut in Fontaine. No matter what kind of challenge there is, for me... it will not be a problem."

The footsteps, accompanied by the confident words, gradually drifted away until they disappeared completely. Linni turned around helplessly and glanced...his shadow had long since disappeared.

"Okay, brother, they are worried about our safety and don't want us to participate."

Linnette's expression next to her was indifferent, but she spoke the true thoughts in Yu Shui's heart.

In this situation, if he is still worried about this and that, when can he worry about himself?

……

In the challenge letter, Navilette designated the challenge location as the Academy of Fontainebleau. For this reason, Clolinde went to negotiate with the current person in charge of the Academy of Fontainebleau three days later.

Three days later, the whole day was the time for the challenge.

Yu Shui was not included in the arrest plan for Yu Youlin, because Merlo Petersburg still needed a manager. Leosli went to the Academy of Sciences to prepare together with Navilette and the others. Yu Shui also Gotta stay in jail.

Of course... there may be a reason why Yu Shui is one of the suspects.

Usually, Yu Shui takes the initiative to send out warning letters, so he has enough time to make preparations. This time, he was passive and unable to make any investigations and preparations in advance.

This means that you need to improvise on the spot.

It was definitely the biggest challenge he had encountered so far, but there was no fear in Yu Shui's heart, but instead... uncontrollable excitement.

On the third and second days before the operation, Yu Shui acted as if he had nothing to do with the whole thing. Every day, he would either sort out the accounts and deal with the incident in Mello Petersburg, or go to the Full Colosseum to make a bet or something. Meeting old friends is so relaxing.

And it’s so relaxing from the bottom of my heart.

The next evening...well, Leosley is back.

……

It seems that no matter what kind of storms occur on the water, the underwater world will always operate according to its own rules day by day, as if it is an extraterrestrial space isolated from the earthly world.

When he was in full swing with everyone from the Momang Palace to lay out the plan at the Fontaine Academy of Sciences, Leosli changed from his usual talkative appearance, as if he was numbing his mood with work.

But this state of mind disappeared after returning to the familiar place of Merlot Petersburg, especially... When I returned to the office, I saw that familiar figure still sitting in his position unchanged for thousands of years, bending over his desk to practice calligraphy. when.

"call…"

"Hey? Sir Duke, you are back...Long time no see? Is your plan going well?"

Hearing Leosley's breathing, Yu Shui immediately raised his head, his pure blue pupils as bright as stars, put down his pen and walked up to him.

Smiling as brightly as ever.

"Well... it went very well, Ayu... nothing happened in Mello Petersburg these days."

"It's just like usual, there are no big changes. The food in the concession hall has become a little sweeter, so that's an incident... Huh?!"

"Don't move, let me hold you for a while."

Before Yu Shui's talk was over, the man in front of him suddenly hugged him into his arms with both hands, as if he was trying to rub Yu Shui into his body.

After a moment of surprise, Yu Shui sighed softly and patted Leosley's head.

"You look very tired...Have you eaten yet? I'll borrow the kitchen from the concessionaire and cook you a meal."

"Okay, I'll wait here."
