Turning to look out of the car, I saw Mir standing outside waiting.
As soon as Amya opened the window, Mir said impatiently, "Your Highness, we should go. Staying here any longer will arouse suspicion."
"Ah."
Amya nodded in agreement, and when she turned her head to look again...
The handsome young man who had been sitting next to me had disappeared, replaced by a woman with a Western face—Wendy, a well-known female detective from Western Europe.
“Princess Amya, it’s time for me to leave and get back to work.”
As he spoke, Chen Feng handed a blue rose to Amya, then, under Amya's gaze, opened the car door, got out of the car, and walked away until he disappeared around a corner.
"Let's go too."
After Chen Feng left, Amyya immediately gave the instructions.
"Yes."
Mil agreed, opened the door, got into the car, and skillfully started the vehicle, driving away from the scene.
the other side.
Chen Feng, who had parted ways with Amya, had already reached the roadside.
Shortly after, a heavy armored truck, entirely black, slowly pulled up from the roadside.
Then a man got out of the car and came up to Chen Feng: "Hello, are you Miss Wendy? My boss is Mr. Connery, and he asked me to come and see you."
"It's me, hello."
Chen Feng politely shook hands with the escort sent by Connery.
Now we get to the main point.
The guard first looked around, but didn't seem to find anyone suspicious, before turning to Chen Feng and asking:
"Miss Wendy, what should we do next?"
"How do I do it?" Chen Feng deliberately feigned a puzzled look.
“Yes, my boss, Mr. Connery, instructed me to follow Miss Wendy’s instructions after I arrived…”
He had only spoken halfway when the guard frowned slightly and sniffed carefully.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he thought he smelled a peculiar scent, like smoke or incense, but it smelled really good. However, after smelling it for a while, he felt... a little dizzy...
In just a few seconds, the once energetic guard became drowsy and was about to collapse when Chen Feng quickly reached out and caught him.
At the same time, a smile appeared on his lips: "That's how it's done."
Chen Feng's gentle male voice reached the ears of the escort.
"you……"
The guard tried to raise his hand to say something, but before he could speak, the drug took effect and he lost consciousness.
……
Chapter 136 The Painting is in Hand
At the same second that the guard fainted, Chen Feng quickly stepped forward to support him, without attracting the attention of anyone else.
After helping the security guard back into the armored vehicle and driving it into the pre-rented enclosed garage, Chen Feng reached behind the vehicle and opened the trunk.
The paintings displayed inside the car suddenly came into view.
The painting has delicate brushstrokes and rich, vibrant colors, making it appear almost indistinguishable from a genuine painting. However, a true connoisseur would notice some subtle flaws in the painting, thus identifying it as a forgery.
Moreover, there is a noticeable small upturn in the lower right corner of the painting, making it easy for anyone who notices it to see that it is a layered painting.
Chen Feng stepped forward, ran his fingers along the edge of the painting, reached out and grabbed the small, upturned corner, and slowly applied pressure.
laugh--
With a sound of glue being torn, the real painting, which was covered by plastic wrap, was finally revealed.
"The Water Lilies, Monet's masterpiece from 200 years ago, is truly a perfect work of art."
Chen Feng reached out and gently peeled off the plastic film covering the painting to protect it.
Looking at the painting before him, which remained intact even after two hundred years, Chen Feng smiled.
"Now it's time for the curtain call! I bet you're getting impatient, Mr. Connery, haha~"
……
10 o'clock in the evening.
A large crowd had gathered around Connery's private estate, and shouts echoed throughout the area.
Inside the exhibition hall, however, were only Connery and a host of invited celebrities from various fields.
Of course, reporters from major newspapers were also indispensable.
Connery, holding a wine glass, greeted those around him with a nonchalant expression, seemingly unconcerned about the announcement letter's timing in two hours.
However, the way he kept glancing at his phone betrayed his inner anxiety.
jingle--
A slight vibration came from the phone.
Connery quickly picked up his phone, and sure enough, it was a message from Wendy:
Wendy: "Mr. Connery, I have trapped Phantom Thief Kid in Villa No. 6 on the West Bank. He will not be able to get out for at least two hours. Don't worry."
Connery's anxiety finally subsided after reading the text message.
His gaze swept over the group of celebrities from all walks of life who were chatting, as well as the reporters from various media outlets who were looking around for sensational stories.
His eyes gleamed with undisguised pride.
Just wait. After the announcement period, he can go on stage and be interviewed by reporters to everyone's surprise, recounting how he defeated Kaito Kid.
Thinking this, Connery's lips curled up into a smile.
He could almost see tomorrow's headlines:
[Phantom Thief Kid is not invincible; Earl's son Connery rises to fame in a single battle!]
Just as Connery was lost in thought, a commotion suddenly broke out at the doorway ahead.
"Princess Amya has arrived."
"Your Highness seems unusually happy today. Has something joyous happened?"
"Is Her Highness the Princess here to see Connery make a fool of himself?"
"Don't talk nonsense! Although it's certainly possible..."
Following the gaze of the crowd.
Amya, dressed in formal attire, was walking towards them with Zhumir.
People around her made way for Amy to pass.
Ignoring the words of those around him, Connery quickly stepped forward and bowed:
"Your Highness, it is an honor for you to be here."
"You're welcome."
Amya smiled and nodded.
Bypassing Connery and the others, we came to the Water Lilies hanging on the wall.
"Is this the thief's target this time? It doesn't seem real..." Amya said, her red lips slightly parted.
In fact, the celebrities present were not fools. Many of them had studied antiques and calligraphy and paintings, so they could naturally tell that the painting hanging on the wall was a fake.
So no one was surprised when Amy said those words.
Connery was equally unsurprised, and simply spoke slowly with a confident smile:
"Your Highness has a keen eye, but this is how I dealt with that thief. I cannot disclose it to you at the moment. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
"Alright, then I'll wait for Mr. Connery's good news."
Amya smiled and spoke, then led Mir to the rest area against the wall and found a seat.
To be honest, Connery had a strong urge to tell Amya the plan directly.
However, for safety reasons, Connally ultimately refrained from doing so.
I glanced down at the time; an hour and a half to go. Almost there…
Connery thought to himself.
"Hello, are you Ms. Natsume Norihisa?"
Upon hearing this voice, Natsume Nobuhisa, who was also sitting in the rest area, looked up.
Looking at Amya's flawless face, Natsume Shinji slowly nodded.
However, the doubt in his eyes did not fade.
I... don't seem to have any connection with this princess who has just been named crown princess, do I? What does she want with me?
Amya pointed to the chair opposite her and said, "Do you mind if I sit here?"
"Of course not, please have a seat."
Natsume Nobuhisa made a "please" gesture.
Amy sat down in front of Natsume Nobuhisa.
Natsume Shinji didn't pay any attention to anything, and just lowered his head to continue playing with his phone.
However, Amy's voice came again: "Five days ago, on my birthday party, Ms. Natsume's performance was wonderful."
"Ok?"
Natsume Nobuhisa raised her head again, but she seemed confused by Amya's sudden gesture of goodwill. She could only say, "Thank you," and then fell silent.
Amya didn't seem to mind, and continued, "I heard that Miss Natsume chatted with that thief for a while before going on stage, and they seemed to be having a good time. Could I know what they talked about?"
