When Armin approaches Annie in an alley to ask her to help Eren escape, Annie
agrees but puts on her ring (with the blade). Armin later realizes that she
knew from that moment that he was lying. How?

How did Annie know Armin was lying?


The answer is in chapter 31.

Annie noticed that Armin is not looking at her like before. Maybe she detected
hints of fear on Armin's eyes, which means Armin knows that Annie is the
Female Titan.

There were also no people on the entire route Annie notices and even says it.
Also, Armin and co wanted Annie to come with them underground where they would
subdue her. If Mikasa wasn't there she would have done it no problem because
she knows she would beat Eren and Armin. She might know that titan shifters
can't transform with no sunlight, as seen when even tried to turn into a titan
in the well but couldn't. With Mikasa there, hand to hand combat is iffy for
her but take away her trump card and add Eren? She wasn't having it and called
their bluff and was able to see through the lie.
