Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

Then, under Mir's gaze, he slowly lifted Amya's left hand and gently kissed it.

"It is an honor to receive Her Highness's help."

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Connery is still being interviewed by reporters.

Just then, someone rushed in from outside.

"Sir! Sir! Something terrible has happened! We've just found someone unconscious outside the manor!"

"Ok?"

The newcomer's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, who all turned to look in their direction.

Behind the newcomer were two burly men carrying a stretcher, on which lay a young man in a suit and tie.

"Spek?"

The young man who had been chatting with Chen Feng suddenly cried out in surprise. Out of concern for his friend, he immediately stepped forward, grabbed the clothes of the messenger, and anxiously asked:

"What happened? Speck was fine just now, how did he suddenly faint?"

The newcomer was startled by the young man's appearance and stammered, "I... we found him already unconscious, we don't know exactly what happened..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the person seemed to remember something and took out a white card from his pocket:

"Oh, right! I found this on this gentleman."

"card?"

The young man was taken aback, then reached out and took the card. The card, which simply depicted a simplified image of Kid's face, had several lines of clear writing on it:

[Notice]

The silvery moonlight of Christmas shines down from the sky, and the midnight bells ring in the silence. I will surely come to visit the serene "Water Lilies".

— Respectfully submitted by Phantom Thief Kid.

"This...this is...a pre-announcement from Phantom Thief Kid!"

The young man exclaimed in surprise.

The eyes of everyone present were instantly drawn to the small white card in the young man's hand.

The reporters who were originally interviewing Connery were also drawn over.

They immediately turned around and took a series of photos of the notice in the young man's hand.

at the same time.

Chen Feng's announcement was also shown in the live stream, which surprised netizens.

"Holy crap! A notice of advance notice? Feng Shen really went to Western Europe?"

"Hiss~~ Amy's birthday just passed two days ago, and Chen Feng has already sent out another notice today. Doesn't this mean that the person who performed at Amy's birthday party two days ago was Chen Feng himself!"

"Huh? It seems that's true. So, can we guess... that there's something going on between Amya and Chen Feng that's not being known to anyone?"

"Don't think like that! How could my goddess like someone else! No! I can't accept this!!!"

"Dude, it's Qiuya's wedding, why are you jumping around like that? They're a perfect couple, do you need to accept it?"

……

The ongoing online discussions have essentially confirmed one fact.

That was the mysterious magician at Amya's birthday party two days ago—Chen Feng in disguise!

The media widely reported on it, sparking another round of public opinion.

Meanwhile, inside the dessert shop...

Having successfully stolen another treasure a few days ago, the three Shangguan sisters chose not to continue their operation and instead took a few days' rest at the dessert shop.

The dessert shop is on the second floor.

Shangguan Meng slammed her water glass down on the table with a loud "bang," her delicate face filled with anger.

"Honestly, that Kidd is always causing trouble wherever he goes. I was wondering why he hadn't come to see Second Sister for so long. Turns out he went to Western Europe to see that princess!"

Shangguan Meng's voice was not low, so the other two women present could hear it clearly as well.

Shangguan Xi sat in a chair, watching a video on her phone of Chen Feng's performance at Amya's birthday party. Her cherry lips were slightly pursed, and she remained silent, lost in thought.

As the eldest sister, Shangguan Lin naturally noticed her younger sister's emotional change and took the initiative to step forward and say:

"Alright, Xiaomeng, don't overthink it. After all, this is just speculation from netizens. We're not even sure if that magician is actually Kidd."

"Big sister! You..."

Just as Shangguan Meng was about to retort, she noticed Shangguan Xi, who looked slightly downcast, at Shangguan Lin's prompting.

She immediately changed her mind before saying, "Um...yes, eldest sister is right. We don't know the specifics yet. We can ask when we see the thief again, right, second sister?"

Shangguan Xi looked up, exchanged a glance with Shangguan Lin, and forced a smile.

"I'm fine, don't worry about it. I have something to do, so I'll go back to my room first."

With that, Shangguan Xi got up from the sofa and walked towards her room.

Shangguan Meng opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she swallowed her words back.

Watching Shangguan Xi's departing figure, Shangguan Lin sighed softly and shook her head inwardly.

Knowing Kaito Kid's style, if his younger sister really falls for him, there will probably be many more similar incidents in the future...

Chapter 131 The Hidden Masterpiece

A day slowly passed.

Due to Chen Feng's advance notice yesterday, the exhibition held by Connery today is exceptionally popular.

Many of Chen Feng's fans brought signs with the names "KID" and "Kid" to the exhibition, hoping to catch a glimpse of Chen Feng.

Of course, some people came specifically for Monet's "Water Lilies," wanting to see for themselves what Chen Feng had his eye on this time.

However, to everyone's disappointment...

Everything in the exhibition hall remained unchanged, except for the painting "Water Lilies".

The frame where the painting "Water Lilies" was originally located was now completely empty.

"What's going on? Where's the painting? We want to see the painting!"

"Could it be that they're afraid KID will steal it and so they're hiding it? With that kind of guts, how dare they hold a famous painting exhibition! Refund!"

"I want a refund too!"

"Me too!"

"Refund! Refund!"

……

As the shouts of "refund!" grew louder and louder, almost everyone in the venue eventually joined in.

Only then did Connery slowly appear with his men.

"Everyone, please be quiet!"

Connery shouted loudly to the crowd.

Unfortunately, his voice was almost instantly drowned out by the shouts of the crowd, without making a ripple.

This made Connery a little embarrassed, so he raised his voice and shouted again, "Everyone, please be quiet!"

It still had no effect.

The shouts of "refund!" at the scene were unified and thunderous, and no one was affected in the slightest by Connery.

Helpless, Connery had to arrange for the surrounding security personnel to use the loudspeaker installed in the lobby to speak to the crowd, which finally quieted them down.

Connery breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, walked onto the platform, and raised his voice to shout:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am very sorry that I was unable to meet your needs. To compensate you, I can refund your ticket price in full!"

Connery spoke up, feigning nonchalance.

His purpose in holding this exhibition of famous paintings was not to make money, but to regain face in front of Chen Feng in public.

Whether or not an entrance fee is charged is not really important.

Upon hearing this, the crowd indeed quieted down considerably.

However, some wealthy individuals remained unconvinced and began to complain:

"Who cares about your ticket money? I came here to see the famous painting that KID has his eye on! If you don't have the guts, why are you even holding an exhibition!"

"Exactly, it's like we're trying to scam you. If you don't have the guts, you might as well just close down!"

"You used Monet's 'Water Lilies' for publicity, but now you won't let us see it. Isn't that a bit of a disgrace to your father, Earl Will?"

People in the crowd kept talking, but Connery remained unmoved.

He's made up his mind; this time, he's going to be shameless!

The reason those people lost before was because they were too concerned about saving face. If they had simply hidden the famous painting, Chen Feng would have had to search for it for ages, let alone steal it!

The means of winning are not important; what he wants is very simple: to win!

The harsher the insults are, the more praise they will turn into praise when he wins!

Ignoring the shouts and curses from the crowd, Connery turned and left.

When Connery tried to leave, the crowd became agitated again, pushing and shoving each other to stop him.

If it weren't for the security personnel on site risking their lives to stop him, Connery would probably have gotten a beating today.

On the outskirts of the crowd, in front of the empty frame that once held Monet's "Water Lilies," a young man in a baseball cap revealed a mysterious smile.

"Hidden? Now that's more like a challenge, Mr. Connery."

After observing the surrounding layout and quietly noting it down, Chen Feng slowly withdrew from the hall.
