Luo Chen shrugged, his playful tone making Otto and Kallen laugh. It was true, though; only three people in the entire Klosten knew Luo Chen's background, and even then, they only knew a portion of it.

"Let's go, we've eaten and seen the show, it's time to go back."

In the evening, in Otto's study, Karen sat in a chair, holding the mask in her hand, staring at it blankly.

"Karen..."

Otto walked in. He had moved out of his family home when he came of age, and usually it was just him, Karen, and Luo Chen here, so it didn't matter what they talked about.

"Otto."

Karen stood up, looked at Otto with great interest, and proposed a path that Otto had never imagined.

"I've got a great idea! Let's steal that old Deng's gold coins!"

"Lao Deng?"

Otto's lips twitched. Kallen must have picked up that word from Luo Chen. No way, he couldn't let Kallen learn trash talk from Luo Chen anymore!

"That's right! That guy Victor must have embezzled a lot of the people's gold coins using the indulgences. Let's steal them all and return them to everyone. Let him know that there is still justice in the world!"

Karen became more and more excited as she spoke, clutching her mask and looking at Otto, her cheeks flushing red.

"Help me, Otto! Help me become a great phantom thief!"

Have you asked the teacher about this?

Karen shook her head; she hadn't had a chance to tell Luo Chen yet, since it was an idea she had just come up with herself.

"No need to ask, I wholeheartedly agree."

Luo Chen pushed open the door and entered, carrying two bowls of ramen, which he handed to the two people.

"Eat it while it's hot, I just cooked it."

"Great!"

Karen was as happy as a child. She took the ramen, sat back down in her chair, and ate heartily. Before long, the bowl was empty.

"Ah! So delicious!"

Karen leaned back in her chair and relaxed for a while before remembering that she still had important things to do.

"By the way, teacher, you just said you supported me becoming a phantom thief?"

"Yes."

Luo Chen helped Karen tidy up the dishes, opened the spatial portal and threw it in, then took the bowl from Otto's hand and threw it in as well.

"Why should I object to this? That old man deserves to be robbed of his gold coins!"

Luo Chen said righteously, how could he not be included in such a fun activity? Besides, with Karen's brains, she might be found out, so he had to keep a close eye on her.

"That's all for today. We'll get you a phantom thief outfit tomorrow. As for the rest, we'll take our time. This can't be rushed."

The next morning, Luo Chen, who was still fast asleep, was awakened by a series of urgent knocks on the door.

"Who is it that's knocking on my door so early in the morning instead of sleeping?"

Luo Chen dragged himself to the door, and just as he put his hand on the doorknob, the door was pushed open, and he was almost knocked over.

"Hey, teacher, you're awake!"

Karen pushed open the door and saw Luo Chen with a resentful look on his face. She scratched the back of her head and stuck out her tongue, trying to avoid Luo Chen's scolding.

Guess why I woke up?

Luo Chen yawned twice, looked at Otto who was covering his face behind Karen, and beckoned him to come in.

"What are you two doing here so early in the morning?"

"Karen woke me up and said she wanted to come to your place together."

Otto smiled helplessly. The novelty of being a phantom thief kept Kallen awake all night, and she got up at dawn to go find Otto. This made Francis, who was exercising in the yard, quite hurt; even his own little cabbage had gone to find the pig.

"I... never mind, waking up a day earlier won't hurt."

Luo Chen waved his hand, telling the two to go outside and wait for him, as he needed to change his clothes.

After changing their clothes, the three of them went to Otto's house. Otto had somehow gotten several boxes of clothes, and several sets were hanging outside waiting for Karen to choose from.

"Otto, just spoil her."

Luo Chen looked at the several large boxes in the room, and several sets of clothes were already hanging outside, just waiting for Karen to come and choose.

"So many clothes, how long will it take to choose?"

"No rush, we can take our time choosing the clothes for the phantom thief."

Otto smiled, opened the large box and let Karen choose for herself, while he and Luo Chen sat down together to advise her.

"Are you sure you want me to be your advisor? The clothes I usually wear are all picked out for me by your teacher's wife."

Luo Chen propped himself up on the table with one arm, leaning slightly towards Otto, and muttered something under his breath as he looked at Karen, who was wearing a hat on her head.

Luo Chen had only told Otto that he wasn't from this timeline, but he hadn't mentioned that he came from the future, and of course, Otto hadn't asked.

When Otto first heard Luo Chen say this, he was taken aback and assumed that Luo Chen was joking. However, judging from Luo Chen's attitude, it didn't seem like it. He confirmed it several times before gradually accepting the fact.

"Teacher, you don't even have this much taste, do you?"

Otto was speaking in a low voice as well, when Karen walked over wearing a cloak and a tall hat.

"Otto, what do you think of this outfit?"

"What are you wearing? You're not even covering your face."

Luo Chen spoke first, taking the hat off Karen's head and casually tossing it onto the chair.

"And this cloak? You're a phantom thief, not a wandering knight. Won't this cloak hinder your movements?"

"That's right, I hadn't thought of that yet!"

Karen nodded, her eyes revealing a clear naiveté, and took off her cloak to rummage through other clothes.

Karen has changed several outfits, but either Luo Chen is not satisfied or Otto finds fault with them. In short, she still hasn't settled on one.

"It's just choosing a set, why is it so complicated?"

Karen sat in the chair, her chin resting on the table, her eyes closed, shaking her head.

"It's definitely going to be troublesome. These clothes not only need to not hinder your normal activities, but also need to cover up the parts that need to be covered."

Luo Chen walked up behind Karen, grabbed her braid, and playfully swung it a few times.

"And you need to change your hair too. With that braid and all that white hair, Old Deng will recognize you at a glance."

Chapter 258 You can still blush?

"Oh, what hairstyle should I get?"

Karen fiddled with her hair. To be honest, she wasn't used to changing her hairstyle. She'd been wearing braids since she was little.

"Anything is fine, as long as it's not braids."

As Luo Chen spoke, he noticed Karen's gaze fixed on him and wondered what she was looking at.

"Karen, what are you looking at?"

"How about I style my hair like yours, teacher?"

Karen untied her hair and, imitating Luo Chen, tied it into a high ponytail. After tying the hair tie, she swayed her head from side to side.

"It feels a bit strange."

Karen looked at herself in the mirror, put on the mask that was placed to the side, and nodded in satisfaction.

"That should prevent them from detecting it!"

"Karen, why don't you try this one?"

Otto brought over a black and purple evening gown, and Luo Chen recognized it as the one from Sixth Fantasy. He immediately suggested that Kallen try it on.

Karen changed into the clothes Otto had given her, stood in front of the mirror, and immediately decided that this was the one she wanted.

"That's really good, Otto, you have great taste."

Luo Chen looked at the clothes scattered on the ground, all of which surprisingly fit Karen perfectly, and his smile gradually turned malicious.

"Hey Otto, how come all these clothes fit Karen so perfectly?"

"Yes, these clothes fit me perfectly!"

As soon as Luo Chen spoke, Karen nodded in agreement. She had felt something was off, but she had been so engrossed in the novelty of choosing clothes that she hadn't paid any attention to it.

"This... don't worry about the details, I'll go get the props I made."

Otto's ears turned slightly red, and he quickly fled the scene to get his props from his workshop.

"Oh, Otto can blush."

Luo Chen smiled like an aunt, looking at Karen who was admiring his beauty. It was the first time he had ever seen Otto show such an expression.

"Teacher, what are you laughing at?"

"nothing."

Luo Chen shook his head slightly. Hearing the sound of the doorknob turning, Otto walked in carrying a bunch of things.
