Chapter 565 - Five Hundred And Sixty-five: Steal His Cellphone (1/2)

The third point of view:

Neon never thought his heart could beat this hard without him dying. Right now, his heart was pounding like the thundering hooves of a thousand wild stallions.

He thought he would die when that captain came near his hiding spot but of course, his mouse saved his life. And Ailee as well.

”Neon!” She approached him, ”What the hell? Why didn't you answer when I called your name?” She looked displeased.

However, Neon simply reached out and hugged her right. He just escaped death, he needed body warmth, comfort, and assurance.

”Hey, what's wrong with you?” Ailee pushed him away but Neon simply tightened his grip around her. His sister was the best.

Ailee didn't struggle anymore, she just let him be although her brows furrowed suspiciously. Neon was relieved to see her which meant something happened.

”What's going on here?” Allen asked from behind and the both of them broke apart, startled - they were beginning to enjoy the hug.

”Nothing!” Ailee answered before Neon could. Her cheeks heating up. And why does she feel guilty that her twin brother caught her hugging Neon? Neon was her brother as well, right? He deserved her hug, right?

At that moment, it hit Neon that he had let his mouse loose again.

”Mr. Smuff junior!” He went in search of his friendly rodent with the twins following after him.

”Here, he is,” Ailee easily picked him from the grass.

”Oh, thank God,” He took him from Ailee, stroking the mouse's body. He said, ”It's a good thing that evil man didn't harm you, my poor mouse,” He pressed a kiss to it.

”Eww,” Allen made a face of disgust.

However, Ailee had a much better question.

”Evil man? What evil man, Neon?”

”Lord Albert!” his tone was resolute, ”That man doesn't like the Queen one bit and I think they mean her harm. I heard them say they had sixty percent control of the palace guards!”

The instant Neon said that, Allen and Ailee stared at each other, a serious expression on their faces.

”What are you talking about?” Allen asked this time, ”You do know you're accusing Lord Albert of treason!”

”A-ha!” Neon said as if he finally remembered what he was searching for, ”The first time we met, I saw the word 'treason' in his chat. By the way, what is treason?'' The boy still had no idea what that was even though he sensed it wasn't something good.

”Also,” he added immediately, ”That guard called him, his majesty. The royal family, aren't they the only ones referred by that title? Akim told me Lord Albert isn't royalty,”

Ailee turned to her brother, ”I don't think Neon is lying neither did he make it up,”

”If that's the case, then this is a big trouble,”

”What is big trouble? The treason? Is treason trouble?” Neon was as curious as hell.

”Neon, treason means betraying one's own country,” Ailee told him.

”Betraying one's own country?” Neon repeated after her, trying to process everything.

”You do know our grandfather Sakuzi is the leader of the gang, right?”

”Yes,” Neon said.

”If another tries to kill him and snatch that position without his permission or by coercion, or blackmailing, that's treason,” she explained.

”Oh,” Neon nodded in understanding. His eyes widened, ”If that's the case, then we have to tell the queen! She's in danger!” he was prepared to leave.
