"Attention all units, we received a call about an ongoing robbery in 35th Street. All nearby units should go there immediately."

Rebecca heard this and immediately drives to the location. "Freen." She muttered as she drove past the vehicles along the highway. The words that 'Nam' told her previously echoes in her head.

"You only have limited time. You have the freedom to change what you think needs to change in order for Freen not to die in the future."

Even though she hasn't fully understand it, but Rebecca couldn't take the risk of letting Freen die in front of her again.

----

"Is this Freen?" The man said as he watched Freen through the CCTV of the museum. He has ordered to install a different set of hidden camera to specifically watch how the young thief works.

"Yes." Heng responded. "She is as skilled as you said." The man said before signaling his secretary to hand the duffle bag to Heng. He opened the bag and saw the amount of cash inside.

"This is more than what we have talked about." Heng said as he closed the bag. "That is your bonus for introducing someone as skilled as Freen to me."

"I hope you will also keep your other promise aside from this huge amount of money." Heng said.

----
Freen was able to get into the museum's vault after successfully deactivating the alarm.

She quietly walked passed the valuable items inside and went towards her goal tonight, the ancient Thai sword from the Ayutthaya Kingdom. Freen carefully lifted it from the holder and wrapped it with the black cloth that she brought with her. After wrapping it, she then tied a piece of string on the top and bottom part so she can put it on with her to avoid the hassle of holding it on her hand.

Once done, she quickly went out and closed the vault and quietly walked out to the nearest exit. However, on her way out, she bumped on to someone. She quickly lowered her cap as she bowed before walking away quickly to the corner of the street.

"Stop right there!" She heard a female voice. She stopped and looked sideways to see who it was. It was the same girl who she bumped into earlier. And to her surprise, she was pointing her gun at her.

Freen run away immediately to the nearest corner of the street. She looked back and the girl was still following her. She run until she reached the dead end. It was the corner where the gate is locked.

"I finally found you." the girl said as she catched her breath. Freen finally turned around to face her.

"Freen." Freen's eyes widen after hearing her name. "How does she know my name?" She thought. And then she noticed that she once again points her gun against her.

"You're under arrest."

"You won't catch me." Freen said with a smirk before she turns around and started climbing the gate behind her.

"Bang!"

Freen stopped when she felt something passed the side of her face. She looked back. "Did you just shoot me?"

"I told you, you're under arrest. I can shoot you if I have to."

Freen continued to climb until she reached the top and jumped immediately to the other side of the gate.

"I told you. You won't catch me." Freen said as she gave her a wink. She also don't understand why she did it, but it obviously had an effect to the other.

----
Rebecca froze when she saw Freen winked at her. Somehow it was the same wink that Freen likes to give whenever she teases her. It took her sometime to recover and when she realized what just happened, she saw Freen already running away.

"I will make sure that this time, you will live." She muttered under her breath.

Rebecca then pulled out her necklace. "You will live and I'll make sure to catch the person behind your death."

Soon enough, she could here the siren from the police cars coming. She then decided to turn around and walked back to her colleagues.

Nam was already there, standing beside P'mind. Nam gave her a meaningful look. Rebecca still wonders who this person is, but if she can help her turn around the time and bring Freen back to life, then she doesn't care if she's a spirit, a deity or an angel.

"Did you catch the thief?" P'mind asked. Rebecca shook her head. "No. I'm sorry."
