259 – Three Girls, Three Moonjaes

“Okay, then, what is the content of today’s class…”

A peaceful daily life that I can’t even remember how long it’s been since then.

In a way, it was a natural result that I couldn’t concentrate in a dull and boring class without any sense of tension.

I was absorbed in other thoughts while passing the class content to one ear.

The content was somewhat obvious. Unanswered questions about the prophecy, Franken, and now the last remaining clue, the clock tower, etc.

I sat down and thought about it for a long time over a problem that couldn’t be solved.

I was finally able to get out of my thoughts when I felt a tap on my elbow from next to me.

“Hey. “What are you so upset about today?”

My partner sitting next to me, Rachel, feels like I haven’t seen her in a long time. Looking around her, she noticed that the teacher at her table had disappeared and a lively atmosphere was flowing in her class. After class, it was time to take a break.

I came to my senses late and responded appropriately to Rachel’s chatter.

Then, another girl naturally comes towards us.

Yulia sat down in the empty seat in front of her with a slightly dissatisfied expression on her face and sighed heavily.

“What’s wrong? What’s going on?”

When she asked, worried that something might have happened to her like Gina, Yulia answered in her sullen manner.

“Raven is not active…”

At that moment, her nerves loosened and her posture almost collapsed.

I guess it was something like that? I was worried for no reason because I thought it was a serious problem.

More than that, you have no intention of hiding it anymore? I am impressed by his actions, which are no different from openly revealing that he is a follower of the Phantom Thief in front of children.

Rachel must have felt the same way as me, and she let out an exclamation as she let out a laugh.

“Hey. You finally admitted it. “The fact that you are a serious follower of a phantom thief who has no answer!”

“I’m just a fan. “There’s nothing wrong with that, right?”

You are so shameless in accepting it. It would be impossible for the clear leader of a group of phantom thieves to just be a fan.

Anyway, as she said, the perception of the Phantom Thief’s followers was surprisingly not that bad.

It was all thanks to Yulia, who took down Drake and took over her position as leader, and worked hard to change the perception of the phantom thief’s followers.

Their efforts have paid off, and now they are just seen as eccentric people with unique tastes, and no longer treated as a factor in social anxiety or like a time bomb that may explode at any moment.

Of course, this is just the public opinion among the general public, but the government and its affiliated organizations, the police and executive branch, still regard not only the thief but also his followers as potential threats.

“Hmm. Now that I think about it, he seems to be quiet these days. The most recent… Was it on a cruise?”

“No! “That was the captain’s plan!”

“It seems like something like that.”

As expected, Rachel didn’t seem to have much interest in the phantom thief, and she only reacted angrily, waving her hand in the face of Julia’s strong opposition.

For me, that kind of attitude was much more comfortable and better. I made a mistake. It was obvious that if they found out that I was a phantom thief, I would be very tired.

In that respect, Sharon, who was the only one who knew my identity, was also a dangerous variable.

Of course, she would not carelessly reveal such a secret to others.

Look. Even now, as usual, I’m just sitting in my seat and concentrating on quietly reading a book.

He had such a consistent attitude as always that even I, watching him, felt calm.

But is it an illusion?

For some reason, I feel like our eyes have been making eye contact every now and then.

Should I say it feels like a periodic glimpse from over there?

Well, of course I was mistaken.

Sharon isn’t that kind of person, and it’s much more natural for her to come up to me openly and talk to me casually when she has business to do with me.

“Anyway, since I wasn’t actively involved in the cruise, the break was long, other than that! “I definitely said a while ago that I would continue to work…”

“What? “A phantom thief said that to you?”

When Rachel asked, frowning one of her eyes, Julia hurriedly shook her head and vehemently denied it.

“Oh, no! “I once left a notice with that kind of nuance!”

“Is that so? “Why can’t I remember?”

“Well, that’s right, Rachel isn’t really interested in the phantom thief, right…? hahahaha···.”

Fortunately, Julia’s excuse seemed to work.

In fact, it was an excuse so awkward that if anyone with even the slightest interest in phantom thieves heard it, she would immediately shake her head.

Even if you think about it with common sense, it’s a bit strange. Why would such a trivial activity cycle plan be included in the crime notice? If you do that, you will mistakenly think there is another hidden meaning, and the interpretation of the riddle will be confused.

Hmm. Anyway, now that I think about it, I don’t think I’m in a position to say anything to Julia.

In fact, after the follower’s problem with Drake was resolved, I met Yulia in person and promised her that I would continue to work with her in the future.

There was no particular intention to deceive. In fact, I felt like I wanted to run right away and become the Phantom Thief Raven.

But what can we do if the situation is not favorable right now? Once I live and prevent the destruction of the world, I can continue stealing.

A phantom thief who saves the world for the sake of stealing, although it may be a bit strange, it was an undeniable truth.

So, I wanted to make an excuse that I was never fooling around, but I didn’t want to put my friend in danger by telling him useless information because he didn’t know anything.

The only reason I told Sharon the truth was because she was closely related to Franken. Otherwise, even if she knew my identity, she would never have told me everything.

“Hmm! Rather than that, Rachel has a worse expression. “Isn’t something wrong?”

Perhaps she decided that it would be dangerous to continue the topic like this, and Yulia changed the topic quite blatantly.

But it wasn’t particularly wrong. In fact, from this morning until now, Rachel has been resting her chin with an expression that makes her look like she just chewed sh*t.

As if he couldn’t deny it, he sighed and stroked her hair and muttered softly.

“Her sister has been in a bad state for a few days.”

“Huh? Why Leah? “What’s the problem?”

Ah, I could tell the reason as soon as I heard Rachel’s words.

“I don’t know the details, but I think there’s a problem at work. “It seems like she completely broke down in just one day.”

“Really? But, if it’s Leah’s workplace… “Isn’t this a foundation that gives you a scholarship?”

“So. I’m going crazy right now because of that. “There isn’t much left until next semester.”

Rachel frowns, scratching her head in frustration.

Coincidentally, that was an issue I was also struggling with. Because the director of that foundation was none other than me.

Thinking about the last time I visited the executive office and talked with Catherine, I felt like there was no possibility that something could be resolved, but that certainly didn’t mean I could feel at ease without worrying about anything.

To put it bluntly, if the executive branch labels me as a suspect related to espionage, from that moment on, it will be difficult to even set foot in Britain. This is not a problem that can be solved by fleeing to another country.

In particular, it was unclear how long it would take to restore the foundation.

All employees have been arrested on charges of espionage, and Juliet, the most capable key figure, has also developed a hostile relationship and is currently missing.

I can personally solve Rachel’s scholarship, but what should I do about Leah’s job problem?

The more she thinks about such things, the more her head hurts and she naturally sighs.

“Haa…”

It just so happened that all of Julia and Rachel’s concerns were related to me.

I was not just related, but I was the core of the problem, so if I didn’t move, there was no way their concerns would be resolved.

The problem is that that is not all.

I’m sorry to both of them, but now I have to solve much more important issues than those first.

At that moment, Sharon, one of the people involved in the matter, stopped glancing at me and stood up and started coming towards me.

Yulia’s problem is the activities of the phantom thief Raven.

If Rachel’s problem is the crisis of the Lupine Foundation disbanding.

Sharon’s problem is the whereabouts of Dr. Franken.

Unlike the other two, this was a problem she had been pursuing for a very long time, ever since she was much younger.

All three problems are related to me.

And just like the previous two problems, Sharon’s problem is also probably a problem that only I can solve.

I clenched my fists as I reflected on that fact.
