As they walked along the river, Allen followed Marianne, the middle-aged woman in a shabby coat. Marianne spread her arms wide, and magically, the river water splashed by the swimming siren created a rainbow around her. She glanced at Allen and smiled. "This is my first time in Oxwadeshire. This town is indeed amazing.
"..." Allen remained silent, not offering any response.
After a few minutes of walking in silence, Marianne broke it by asking, "Allen, you told me earlier that you can't sympathize with thieves. Then why did you help me?"
"Allen, you told me earlier that you can't sympathize with thieves. Then why did you help me?"
Allen remained silent for a moment, contemplating her words. Finally, he spoke. "I didn't know you were a thief. I heard it after I tried to break it up."
Marianne chuckled softly, then pointed at Allen. "You lied."
