"You're so sly and deceptive at such a young age. You've stolen something, and now you want to play dumb? You're not afraid of the authorities; are you saying you're not afraid of death?"
The little girl's playful laughter was as usual, her petite figure seemed to float over, appearing like a ghost before him.
"Hiss, what do you mean?"
Young Thief was scared out of his wits when his thoughts were read like that, cold sweat dripping down. He took a deep breath, opened his eyes wide and forcefully asked with composure.
"If you make a mistake, you must accept punishment."
