"Pannis." Lina cried out in surprise, watching Pannis run swiftly away. She turned in shock and asked Catherine, "Big Sister, why did you..."
"Don't yell." Catherine weakly shook her head and sighed softly, "This is the only solution and seems to be the only chance as well. Say nothing, let's leave it be. Let's go."
"But Pannis, he..." Lina pointed to the direction Pannis had run off to, anxiously stating, "He's leaving, no, he's already left. He clearly wasn't himself just now, Big Sister, how could you..."
"Idiot, shut up." Vivian, who had been silent till now, suddenly glared at Lina and said angrily, "Catherine is the one who's most upset right now, not you. Worrying does you no good, so stop passing judgments."
"I... I'm sorry." Lina was taken aback and whispered apologetically with her lip bitten, "I apologize, Big Sister. I was out of line. I shouldn't have spoken to you like that."
