"A thief?!"

"What's happening?"

"Has someone stolen something? How brazen! How dare they steal with so many people around?"

"Anybody who dares to steal something here must be a habitual offender or a new student. They must be punished severely."

"This student is well-dressed and doesn't look like a thief. Could it be a misunderstanding?"

"Oh, please. A misunderstanding? Looks are deceiving. Don't be fooled by her beauty. That's how thieves operate these days. Don't think she can't be a thief just because she's pretty!"
