Chapter 985 Man in Black Robe

"Li, I have a new goal!"

In the Yae family's mansion, Kallen suddenly appeared outside the window of Yae's room, still wearing a purple thief costume, and jumped in with a somersault.

"You're not even going out the front door? Lady Saint of Kaslana?"

Yaehi walked to the window and looked outside. The guards were still patrolling as usual and did not notice the suspicious arrival of Kallen.

"There's a reason for everything. After all, you see I've changed my clothes. If someone saw me outside, I'd definitely be suspected~"

Kallen lay down on Yaegi's bed, rolled over a few times, then turned over and lay on her stomach to look at Yaegi, "This time it's another person from the Apokalis family, maybe one of Otto's uncles? According to my recent observations, he also participated in and embezzled a lot of the benefits brought by indulgences."

"So, let's get moving! There are only two of us this time, come on, I've even prepared some clothes for you!"

Kallen somehow produced a set of men's phantom thief costume that was the same as hers—a slim-fitting dress with purple as the main color, a purple iris flower pinned on the collar, and purple slim-fitting trousers on the lower body. The only difference between the clothes on Kallen and hers was that the styles were different for men and women.

"Come on, Li, put it on, and we will be the thief duo that everyone loves and is feared by everyone..."

Kallen put the clothes in her hand on Yaeri and took a rough look at them. She found that they fit her very well. It was worth it that she secretly took one of Yaeri's clothes to the clothing store to compare the sizes... Wait, it seems that she forgot to take that dress back?

Kallen glanced away uncomfortably, having no idea that Yaeki had already discovered her clothes had been stolen and had already prepared herself for the loss.

But Yae Ri didn't want to participate in the Phantom Thief operation at the moment. Was it because his bed was uncomfortable to sleep in at night? Or was it because the midnight snack was not delicious? He was too lazy to go out and play the Phantom Thief game himself.

However, seeing Kallen's expression first become stiff, then lonely, and lowering her head to look at the clothes in her hands aggrievedly, Yae Li still felt a little soft-hearted and said helplessly: "Don't you want to go find Sakura? Or should I lend you Theofil?"

"Well, I just think that if I work with you, the mission of the Phantom Thief can be completed more easily..."

This time, Kallen did not invite Yae Ri as an assistant, but as a partner to break into the mansion and search through the cabinets, so Yae Ri asked: "Why did you think of finding a partner? Do you not have the confidence to deal with the methods of those nobles alone?"

"No, it's just that the mansion we're targeting this time is a bit large and complex, and there might even be a basement or something, so I thought of adding an extra layer of insurance..."

Perhaps noticing that Yaeri's attitude had softened, Kallen became happy again and tried her best to explain the information about the operation to her.

"Okay, but only this once."

Yaeri finally took the clothes from Kallen and went to another room to change.

When they came back after changing clothes, Kallen pulled Yaeri to stand in front of the life-size mirror. Looking at the handsome man and beautiful woman in the mirror wearing the same phantom thief costumes, she nodded with satisfaction.

"Li, handsome!"

"Mmm... Kallen, beautiful!"

Since Kallen used the correct adjective, Yaeri reluctantly accompanied her in posing for a few times until the door of the room was opened by Yaesakura, who wanted to find her brother for something. After being stared at coldly, the two of them embarrassedly changed back into their normal clothes.

……

At night, around twelve o'clock, two black shadows appeared above the target mansion under the moonlight. Kallen winked at Yaeri, then climbed up the wall and jumped into the window first. After confirming that there was no one there, she called Yaeri to come down.

Yaeri took a quick look with her black and white eyes and found that most of the guards in the house were hiding in the rooms near the junction of the corridor and stairs on each floor, sticking to the doors and listening carefully to the movements outside.

So why did Kallen send a warning letter before every operation? Isn't this just making the mission more difficult?

Seeing Karin tiptoeing towards the stairs, Yaeri grabbed her hand and pointed at the bulge on the carpet in front of her. A sharp piece of iron could be vaguely seen sticking out, which seemed to be a clamp that could break a calf in one go.

Kallen also saw it and couldn't help swallowing her saliva. She was a little angry. She didn't expect that the owner of this mansion was much more vicious than Victor before.

The two men bypassed the clamp and walked past the door where the guards were hiding. They landed silently, without even the slightest creaking of the floor under their feet.

The following floors have almost the same configuration, except that there is no trace of gold coins.

Kallen looked at Yae Ri for help. The latter looked around again and suggested softly, "Maybe we can go to the backyard. It's well hidden under the third flower bed from the left."

Kallen's eyes lit up, and she followed Yae Ri back to the rooftop. From here, she could see that apart from the occasional guard passing by, there was only a blond man in his thirties or forties in a room on the third floor below who was staring intently at the backyard.

In order to retaliate against the other party for trying to break her legs, Kallen sneaked up behind him and knocked him out with a knife, and then easily took away most of his savings from under the flower bed.

"Li, this time thanks to you~"

After escaping the mansion, Kallen held the purse in one hand. Her pretty face under the mask became a little red due to excitement, and a smile bloomed on her face without restraint.

"I didn't do anything. I think you should be able to find those traps by yourself."

Yaeri was infected by Kallen's smile and couldn't help but smile.

"But without you, I would have to spend a lot of effort to find these gold coins under the flower bed... Forget it, Li, let's start the happy money distribution time!"

"..."

"Li?"

Suddenly, without hearing Yaezaki's response, Kallen turned to look at him and found that he naturally turned his gaze away from a certain direction, "Is there anything over there?"

Karin looked over curiously, and the next moment her eyebrows knitted together. She saw two mysterious men in black robes running out of the flower shop where the mother and daughter who were bullied by Victor before lived. One of them seemed to be holding something in his arms...

"Wait, that's the girl from before, right?"

Kallen's eyes widened as she suddenly realized that the thing held in the black robe was a young girl, the daughter of the flower shop owner. Kallen had tried to contact her before and learned her name, Sasha, which matched her owner's cute appearance very well.

"What are you doing?!"

Kallen called out anxiously, causing the two men in black robes to turn half of their faces away as if frightened.

"Come on!"

"Stop!"
