The irl with the old-looking trumpet, and uttered in a cold voice

「Is it true that you let the thief escape? 」

The young girl didn't answer to that man's question No words came out of her mouth Actually, her htened Her throat itching, but didn't make any sound

That man stared fixedly at her with his eyes wide open The corners of the girl's mouth bounced involuntarily

His eyes were like those un friendly looking
