Are you only allowed to have a sister?

Malson entered the tent, first driving out the people inside, then walking out himself. He stood outside the large tent, sensibly giving the space inside to Li Ke and the two sisters, acting like security personnel outside, preventing others from entering, especially the tall, well-built female Enforcer with a displeased expression.

"I said, let go of me!"

"Let go, I won't go in!"

Caitlyn said loudly. Malson watched from afar. Seeing this, he raised his hand, and the people holding Caitlyn let go. Caitlyn rubbed her wrist, looked around, and then obediently found a place to sit.

At this moment, her weapons were in these people's hands, and there were guards all around her. She wasn't stupid enough to do anything rash.

Although very displeased, Caitlyn couldn't find a way to resist right now, so she could only stay put obediently, quietly waiting for Vi to come out.

Inside the tent--

At this moment, Vi was looking at Jinx sitting with Li Ke. Seeing this, Vi's expression was complicated, but she said nothing.

Vi couldn't help but think, if it were in the past, Powder would only be sitting by her side. But everything had changed.

Isha also caught Vi's attention because the girl was sitting obediently next to Jinx, occasionally looking up to check Jinx's expression. Looking at the child's eyes on Jinx, Vi suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, a sharp, constricting pain.

Vi was familiar with this kind of gaze, because Powder used to look at her like that.

There was no one else in her eyes, as if having Vi was enough, Vi was her whole world.

And now?

Vi found Powder's gaze so strange.

"Tell me, how did you end up with the cops?" Jinx looked at Vi intently, but if one looked closely, they would notice her beautiful blue pupils were a little unfocused.

Because she was desperately trying to control her emotions, to stop herself from hearing the jarring voices in her mind, to stay focused. Jinx avoided looking at the colorful lines forming human shapes around Vi, and avoided looking at the flashing images.

But even if she didn't look, the voices in her mind were still swirling.

So, she reached out and forcefully tapped her own head, but after just one tap, Li Ke, who was beside her, stopped her.

Then, Jinx tilted her head and looked at Li Ke.

"It's okay," Li Ke said to her.

"."

Jinx looked at Li Ke, blinked, her pupils regained their clarity, and she nodded.

Then she turned and looked at Vi.

"Okay, I'll explain now."

Vi watched this scene, took a deep breath, and then explained how she met Caitlyn, how she learned about the Piltover smuggling explosion case from Caitlyn, and how she found the monkey graffiti at the scene. It was because of this that she cooperated with Caitlyn and got the chance to be released from prison.

Besides that, she truly knew nothing.

"How could I, someone locked up in prison, possibly know what's happening outside?" Vi said earnestly.

But Jinx didn't believe her.

Because how could there be so many coincidences?

She hadn't caused little trouble for Piltover over the years. While this time the commotion was a bit bigger, how did it just so happen that Vi got out?

"What she's saying is true," Li Ke said from the side.

Vi glanced gratefully at Li Ke, then looked at Jinx and said, "It's your turn, Powder."

"Are you really working for Silco now?"

Vi asked this question, It was something that had been stabbing at her heart since she arrived in Zaun.

How could she not care about this?

Silco was the one who killed Vander, and now her own sister was working for Silco.

Vi originally didn't plan to delve into this. Because, just as she said, no matter what Powder did, she would only think that Powder did it to survive. As long as she could see Powder again and be with Powder, that would be enough.

But, could she really pretend to know nothing and let all this happen like a turtle?

That was impossible, because that wasn't her personality.

If it were someone else doing this, Vi wouldn't have calmly sat down to talk. She would have thrown a punch first, and then asked questions.

Now that she was sitting down to communicate, Vi naturally asked this question.

Hearing Vi's words, Jinx leaned forward and looked at Vi, saying loudly:

"Ha, yes, I am working for Silco."

"So what? My dear sister, have I disappointed you?"

"I said, Powder, no matter what you did, I can understand you."

"I~ un~der~stand~ you~, ha! Best believe it." Jinx crossed her arms and rolled her eyes disdainfully. "If you hadn't brought a Cop with you, I would have believed you."

"Didn't I already say it? Powder, Caitlyn and I are just cooperating. Without her help, I wouldn't have been able to see you at all!" Vi said, getting a little agitated.

Li Ke listened to the sisters' conversation from the side, feeling a bit amused and a bit helpless.

However, he could tell that Jinx was slowly calming down now.

After all, her current complaints about Caitlyn to Vi no longer carried a neurotic expression. And the reason she kept harping on Caitlyn was simply... jealousy?

Jinx was jealous of Caitlyn, jealous that she wasn't the first person Vi sought out when she emerged.

But speaking of which, watching Jinx and Vi bicker, Li Ke found it quite amusing.

After all, in the twin cities, Jinx and Vi rarely spoke for more than a few minutes before something would inevitably erupt, interrupting the sisters' conversation. Now, despite the slightly awkward atmosphere, they were actually communicating.

Li Ke suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction.

Well, he wanted to see who could interrupt this sisterly chat now.

"Help? If Mom and Dad knew you made friends with an Enforcer, oh god, I don't even know what they'd think," Jinx said, spreading her hands and speaking sarcastically.

"And what about you? If Mom and Dad knew you'd become a—" Vi retorted instinctively, but looking into Jinx's eyes, she froze and retracted the rest of her words.

Then, deflated, she lowered her head. Vi looked like a defeated dog.

After a moment, she looked up again, proactively changing the subject.

Noticing Isha sitting by Jinx's leg, she asked, "Who is she?"

Jinx looked at Isha, reached out to stroke her head, and replied, "What? Only you are allowed to have a little sister? I can't have one?"

As soon as she said this, Isha happily hugged Jinx's leg, nuzzled her face against Jinx's thigh, and made two soft sounds.

Being retorted to again by Jinx, Vi said sadly, "You never used to argue with me, Powder. What's going on now?"

"..."

"Can we go back to how things were?"

Looking at Vi, Jinx opened her mouth, then fell silent.

Seeing this, sadness and pain surfaced on Vi's face.

But then, she heard Jinx's voice.

It was very quiet, but clear in the silent tent.

"I don't know," Jinx said.

Vi immediately looked up at Jinx.

What did she mean?

She didn't know.

Not that she couldn't.

In an instant, Vi's eyes brightened considerably.
