"What do you mean by fellow travelers? Don't compare me with scum like you!"
"Surrender now! We appeared here specifically to catch you!"
Kojirō stared expressionlessly at Mukiwa, then let out a cold laugh: "…I've recently heard that the Cat Monk is a weirdo who helps the officials catch thieves."
"I never expected the rumors to be true."
"It's hard to understand. Although you only steal from evil people, at the end of the day, you're just a thief."
"As a thief, you even help the Magistrate's Office catch thieves... for no reward, perhaps just some fleeting reputation..."
Having said this, Kojirō sneered disdainfully, then turned his head to look around.
"Facing the Cat Monk, known for his speed and expertise in wall-climbing and roof-running... it's not easy to escape right under your nose..." After muttering in a self-talking tone, Kojirō's gaze turned cold, and he signaled to Ichitaro and the others beside him.
