"Hey? Is this little guy just a person who broke into my house? He looks like a completely undeveloped little bean sprout."

Not long after Ryan informed the troupe of the catching the tracing criminal through Enigma, Ilia and Lisha came to the third floor of Rayson's apartment together.

At this time, Ilia looked back and forth, left and right, as she was still being followed by Ryanti in the air, with a thoughtful expression on her face.

"Let me go! I hate you high-ranking people the most!"

Ryan shrugged helplessly to Ilia and Lixia, "This little girl is very energetic. She has been struggling since I caught her... although this doesn't make any sense."

With the thin physique and pitiful strength of this little bean sprout, it would be strange if he could escape from Ryan, who had been undergoing strict self-training all year round.

Lixia walked to the stalker with a faint chill on her face, looked at her vigilantly and asked, "Little sister, why did you follow and break into Miss Ilia's house? When did she offend you?"

For Lisha, who has lived in ignorance and darkness all year round, Ilia, who was the first to pull her out of the shadow and face the sunshine, has a very important position.

She wanted to eliminate any existence that might pose a threat to Ilia as soon as possible. This mentality was naturally reflected in her eyes. The little stalker who was struggling hard was frightened and he was immediately calm.

"Oh? I'm still used to Lixia's words, this girl became honest all of a sudden."

Under the smile of Elia, the girl in Ryan's hand looked at Lixia timidly, but at this time, after receiving Elia's praise, Lixia had already expressed a embarrassed expression on her face. The very threatening look seemed to have never existed before.

Children who live at the bottom of society all year round usually have a strong perception of danger. The follower carefully looked at Lixia, who had returned to her normal expression, and couldn't help but mutter.

‘Who is this sister?…The feeling before was so scary.’

Under Lixia's intimidation, this bean sprout quickly honestly explained its origin and motivation.

"I can't stand the way this guy's whole body emits light on the stage... That kind of spirit and that kind of satisfaction are something I can't achieve in my life!"

Shuri Atred, this is the name of the girl who follows the criminal. At this time, she still looked at the unknown Ilia with complex eyes of jealousy and yearning.

Lixia seemed to see some resonance points in Shuri, and she asked tentatively, "Have you seen the performance of the Rainbow Theatre?"

"I sneaked in and watch it." Xiuli lowered his head and gritted his teeth and said, "I can't afford the tickets to the Rainbow Theatre Troupe even if I work hard for a year. How can you, a city person who is full of fish and meat, understand the pain of living in a slum!"

"Especially you, Ilia Pilatesy! How can someone like you who can easily get everything from your life to understand that you can never touch your dreams!"

"Hey, little girl, you're saying too much."

Ryan frowned and gently tapped Shuri's head with his free left hand. "Miss Iriya can achieve this kind of achievement today, and he has worked hard to get through it step by step. Don't vent his ignorant anger on her."

Ilia looked at Xiuli, who lowered her head and trembled all over, and a serious expression appeared on her face.

Lixia sighed softly, "It seems that this child should have lived in a village on a border before. When he saw the scene of Crossbelt's bright lights and wine for the first time, he would naturally be greatly impacted... After all, this city itself has many dark sides."

"Well." Ryan also nodded, "In this international trade city, everyone follows the city atmosphere and chases Mira. The interactions between people sometimes seem very hypocritical. I think I'll see a bad side for this little guy who has entered the city for the first time."

After thinking for a while, Ilia reached out to squeeze and touch Xiuli. Xiuli, who was originally immersed in grief and anger, was itchy and couldn't help but laugh with depression...

"Stop...stop, hehehe~ no! What are you, a sloppy woman?"

"Good physique, excellent flexibility, and very qualified!"

It took a while for Iriya to take back her hand from the panting Xiuli, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Your name is Xiuli, right? As a punishment for breaking into my house, you must work in the Rainbow Theater Troupe next, when will I pay off my mental loss before I can leave."

“Eh?”

Xiuli was stunned for a moment. Seeing that the little girl was no longer aggressive, Ryan finally reached out and put her on the ground.

Lixia was slightly stunned when she heard Ilia's words, then chuckled relievedly, "It's true that it's in line with Miss Ilia's style. This child has the talent to become an actor."

"Hmm!"

Ilia bent down and leaned over to Xiuli, who was confused and said, "If you want to achieve your dream, you must rely on your own efforts. You can't change anything by relying on cynicism alone. In short, you should be responsible for doing chores in the troupe first. Let me see your enlightenment during this period."

"Forehead……"

Ryan scratched her head helplessly, "That is the end of this matter? Don't you need to hand her over to the police station?"

Ilia reached out to pinch her dirty cheeks with Shuri's still at a loss.

"No, this child doesn't have much malice. I can see that she has an extraordinary yearning for stage performance. Maybe she can become the second Lisha in the future."

"Ah haha~" Lixia smiled embarrassedly, "I am worthy of being the strong Miss Ilia. I was forced to join the troupe in this way."

Ryan shrugged without comment, "Okay, you have the final say, but..."

Looking at Shuri, who was wearing shabby clothes and dirty arms, Ryan showed a contemplative expression on his face, "Is Northampulia..."

"Well... I have heard of that poor autonomous prefecture."

Lisha took advantage of the time when Ilia teased Sulli, and walked to Ryan. "Since the Salt Pile incident two years ago, the original Principality of Northampulia was quickly overthrown because of the inaction of the Grand Duke in the face of disaster."

"Although the autonomous prefecture government established later tried hard to maintain it, Northampulia, which originally relied mainly on maritime trade, was completely salted in the northern part of the sea. The finances of the autonomous prefecture were very tight, which led to the large hunting regiment of North Hunter."

Ryan sighed softly, "The impact brought by the Salt Pile is not only that, because of the drastic changes in neighboring Northampulia, the originally wealthy Zhulai City lost an important trading partner."

"Due to the sharp economic recession, Julai had to rely more on trade exchanges in another neighbor, Ereponia, which was one of the direct reasons why the city was annexed by the empire later."

‘Of course, Prime Minister Osborne is inevitably fueled by the fire…’
