Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

After the daytime exhibition of famous paintings concluded.

Connery's behavior was unsurprisingly posted online.

For a time, netizens from all over the world were speechless at Connery's cowardly response.

"No way... this is the Earl's son? There were people who suspected that the magician at Amya's birthday party was Kidd, so almost all the private exhibitions in Western Europe were suspended. I thought he was some kind of big shot, but... this is it?"

"Exactly, if you have the guts to hold an exhibition, then don't be a coward! Are you making fun of us?"

"Fengshen just sent out the notice, and this guy immediately removed the painting from the exhibition hall! That's some serious shrewdness!"

"Coward! You don't even have the guts to hold an exhibition, aren't you ashamed!"

……

Nighttime.

The exhibition had ended, and the entire manor had once again become deserted.

Inside the manor, in Connery's room.

Connery was sitting on the sofa in his bedroom, scrolling through online comments.

As he expected, the online comments about his actions were almost unanimously calling him a "coward" and criticizing him for having no guts to hold an exhibition, especially since it took place just a few days before Kidd's appearance.

However, Connery didn't seem to care much about it.

As he himself said, he doesn't care what means he uses, as long as he can win, he doesn't care.

click!

Connery turned off his phone, tossed it aside, and then closed his eyes to go to sleep.

Just then, a sudden commotion arose outside, followed by the lights being turned on, and the entire manor was instantly illuminated.

"what happened?"

The sudden commotion outside startled Connery. He opened his eyes again, sat up in bed, looked out the window, and listened carefully.

He vaguely heard sounds like "Kaito Kid" or "stealing paintings".

For an instant.

Connery was wide awake.

He quickly got out of bed, dressed in a few quick movements, threw on a coat, and hurried toward the lobby.

We quickly arrived at the lobby.

The lobby was in complete chaos.

The shouts around were incessant, and dozens of security personnel were running back and forth, creating an extremely chaotic scene!

……

Chapter 132 The Second Dream Stealing

"What happened? What's going on?!"

Connery, his face contorted with rage, demanded an explanation in a sharp voice.

Before anyone could answer, a white figure was seen standing by the window in the lobby.

His cape fluttered in the wind, and behind his monocle, a mocking gaze lingered.

And in the hands of the newcomer was an exquisite painting—Monet's "Water Lilies"!

Connery was stunned, his gaze quickly falling on the empty frame where "Water Lilies" had once been.

There, the wall compartment had been opened at some point, and inside was an empty safe!

That's right, Connery hid the real "Water Lilies" in a folded layer in the wall behind the empty frame, but... how did Chen Feng know?

Looking at Chen Feng not far away, Connery no longer had time to think about why Chen Feng had already appeared before the notice date had arrived.

They could only quickly call for security personnel to come forward and arrest Chen Feng.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

With a confident smile, Chen Feng by the window slowly said, "I'll accept this masterpiece by Mr. Monet from 200 years ago."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Feng suddenly leaped out of the window. The hang glider behind him opened, taking him and the famous painting with him as they left.

"Do not!!!"

A loud shout came from Connery's mouth.

He sprang up from the ground instantly, his head covered in sweat from the intense emotional turmoil, and he was panting heavily.

But the next second, the scene around him stunned him.

He found himself still in the lobby, but Kidd and the hang glider were gone. Only his bodyguards and the manor's servants were gathered around him, looking at him with worried expressions.

"This...this is..."

Connery didn't react for a moment, staring blankly at the people around him, looking somewhat bewildered.

Upon seeing that Connery had woken up, the old butler Pat rushed over, still holding the small crucifix in his hand and muttering incantations.

"Thank God that the young master has woken up."

The old butler, Pat, reached out to support Connery, his eyes filled with worry as he spoke:

"Young Master, please don't move. The medical staff will be here soon. You suddenly fainted just now, it scared me to death."

"Fainted...fainted?"

Connery blinked, processing Pat's words.

I remember now!

He came to inspect the layout of the exhibition, and then... he lost consciousness?

Was that just... a dream?

Thinking of this, Connery ignored the objections of those around him, quickly stood up, and walked towards the frame where "Water Lilies" was originally stored.

After feeling around and confirming that there was nothing wrong, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It really was a dream, but it felt too real...

Recalling the scene from his dream, Connery couldn't help but shudder. This was the first time in his life he had ever had such a vivid dream.

Everyone was baffled by Connery's behavior, wondering what their boss was doing.

Of course, Connery wouldn't reveal the location of his hidden paintings to them; he simply turned around, said "You can all leave now," and then turned and left the scene.

Of course, no one noticed that outside the lobby window, a small white dove with a tiny camera attached was staring into the room with its bright black eyes.

After Connery left, the little white dove seemed to receive some kind of instruction, flapping its wings and flying away from there.

at the same time.

Inside a five-star hotel in Geerch.

Having just completed his dream-stealing mission, Chen Feng slowly closed the laptop in front of him.

Lying in bed, with her hands behind her head, she looked up at the white ceiling, a smile playing on her lips, and muttered to herself:

"Darkness under the lamp? Very creative, but not enough. Let me add fuel to the fire, Mr. Connery, haha..."

……

The following day, on the morning of December 23rd.

Although today was not the day specified in Chen Feng's announcement, the exhibition was still bustling with activity.

The manor was packed with people, almost overflowing.

Meanwhile, Connery, the organizer, was also extremely excited. He changed into a brand-new suit and sat on the sofa in the manor's living room, waiting for something.

He wasn't so happy because of the exhibition, of course, but because... a very special guest was arriving today...

"Madam, this way please."

A sound came from the doorway, and Connery immediately stood up and looked towards the door.

Led by a waiter, a tall, curvaceous woman appeared from the entrance.

Her beautiful eyes were cold and wise, as if they could see through people's hearts.

"Hello, are you Miss Wendy? I'm Connery, it's nice to meet you."

"Hello."

Wendy extended her hand and shook hands lightly with Connery, then, with Connery's polite voice, slowly walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite him.

As soon as he sat down, Connery couldn't wait to speak:

“Miss Wendy, I heard from Her Highness the Princess that you came all the way from the Arctic because of this. You must have gone through a lot.”

"This is nothing."

Wendy waved her hand, seemingly unconcerned.

“Amya and I have been friends for many years. I heard from her that one of her friends, Mr. Connery, has recently been targeted by a thief and urgently needs a detective to help. As her friend, I naturally cannot refuse.”

"Haha, thank you so much, Your Highness, for bringing me Miss Wendy, the champion of the European division of the World Detective Competition."

Connery smiled smugly.

He had initially suspected that Amya might have something going on with that damned thief, but now it seemed he had been overthinking it.

It turns out that Amy had no idea of ​​the magician's true identity at the birthday party, so she was furious when she learned that the magician was Kid.

That's why, when Chen Feng issued another notice, he specially invited Miss Wendy, a world-renowned detective, to deal with Kid.

Although he was confident in his preparations and did not believe that Chen Feng could steal "Water Lilies," it was, after all, a gesture of goodwill from Amya, so of course he would not refuse!

Connery thought to himself, and then a smug smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

Amya's advances! This is something so many men dream of!

"Mr. Connery? Mr. Connery?"

Wendy called out twice more, which finally pulled Connery back from his thoughts.
