“A thief…? What thief? Wasn’t he the magician who was invited to perform? I just talked to him a little about performing on stage.”
Upon hearing Amya's words, Natsume Nobuhisa pretended to be oblivious.
Although she didn't have much of a relationship with Chen Feng, she didn't want to help others deal with him, so she simply pretended not to know anything.
Amy didn't expose them.
"Then... does Ms. Natsume have his contact information?"
"Contact information?"
Natsume Nobuhisa was taken aback, and didn't hide this fact, shaking his head and saying, "No, I asked him for it, but he didn't give it to me."
"That's a real shame..."
Upon receiving this answer, Amya feigned regret and spoke.
After exchanging a few more words with her, the conversation ended, leaving Natsume Nobuhisa completely bewildered, seemingly not understanding why the princess was asking these questions.
……
It's time for Chapter 137 preview!
Time quickly came to 11:30 p.m.
Chen Feng's live stream promptly switched the camera to the lobby of Connery's private estate.
A large number of Chen Feng's fans, who had been waiting for a long time, flooded into the live broadcast room.
In an instant, the live stream's popularity skyrocketed, from 500,000 to 1 million, 2 million...
Before long, the number of viewers in Chen Feng's live stream exceeded five million! And it was still rising!
The chat room was flooded with comments.
"Yay! It's almost time, I can see my husband again!"
"There's only half an hour left until the announcement of Fengshen's notice. I wonder if Connery, the organizer, is panicking?"
"Wait a minute, why does Connery look so confident? What? Is he sure he can beat Chen Feng?"
"Pah! Those people used to think they could beat Feng Shen, but what happened? I've never seen anyone who could stop Feng Shen's actions!"
"Don't be so sure of yourself upstairs. This is overseas. With their skills, Chen Feng might not be able to win, right?"
"Get lost! Go lick your foreign daddy's dick yourself, don't disgust us here!"
"You dare to insult me!"
"I'm cursing you!"
The live stream room was very lively.
In contrast, the atmosphere at the scene was much quieter.
People would occasionally glance down at their watches, waiting for the announcement to be made, while many others would glance in Connery's direction, waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
But no matter what, on the surface, everything remained amicable, with everyone chatting in small groups, holding wine glasses.
Fifteen more minutes passed.
At this point, only fifteen minutes remained until the deadline for the notification letter.
A tall woman with delicate features walked in from outside and came to Connery's side.
"Miss Wendy, thank you for your hard work."
Upon seeing the visitor, Connery very politely offered him a glass of champagne.
Although the person in front of me charged a bit too much, giving me a luxury watch worth 30 euros, it's still worth the price given the current situation.
Chen Feng, disguised as "Wendy," reached out and took the champagne, then lightly clinked glasses with Connery.
"Mr. Connery, you're too kind. It's just part of my job."
"Ha ha--"
Connery laughed heartily, then picked up his glass and downed it in one gulp.
Time keeps moving forward.
Before we knew it, it was 23:59 PM.
At this moment, there was only one minute left until midnight, as stated in Chen Feng's announcement.
The atmosphere at the scene had become extremely tense.
Everyone present stopped talking and waited for the white figure to arrive.
Connery's palms were sweating. Although he was confident in his plan, he was inevitably nervous as it was his first time facing Kid head-on.
His gaze kept drifting towards the "Water Lilies" painting hanging on the wall, and his breathing became heavier.
Chen Feng naturally noticed this as well, but he didn't have time to pay attention to Connery at the moment.
Instead, he raised his wine glass to Amya, who was resting in the rest area not far away.
Amya also raised her glass, and the two clinked glasses across each other as if celebrating in advance, each drinking champagne from their glasses.
Half a minute left...
The live stream chat was flooded with comments.
"Damn, I get so nervous every time I watch Feng Shen, much more nervous than watching American blockbusters."
"It's almost time. I'm thinking about how Feng Shen will appear. Never mind, he'll definitely be cool."
"Aaaaaaah!!!! My husband, come out now! How can I come out if you don't come out?!"
"Not big socks, are you speaking Chinese?"
"Chinese culture is profound and extensive!"
As the second hand ticked, it also stirred the emotions of everyone present.
"Ten seconds left..."
Many people are counting down in their hearts.
"ten……"
"Nine……"
……
"three……"
"two……"
"one!!!"
The lights went out on time, eliciting a chorus of boos from the crowd.
Connery was completely stunned.
What's going on? Shouldn't Kaito Kid be held up? Shouldn't he be too late to get here?
So what's going on now?
Connery looked surprised, but fortunately he had made a backup plan beforehand. He quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Attention all security personnel, turn on the lights!"
At Connery's command, the security personnel around him simultaneously turned on their handheld flashlights.
In an instant, the entire venue was as bright as day.
Everyone then had a clearer view of their surroundings.
To everyone's surprise.
At this moment, all four walls of the venue were covered with a thick black curtain, and the dozens of famous paintings hanging on the walls were also covered by the black curtain.
Among them is the painting "Water Lilies" hanging on the wall.
The viewers in the live stream were also completely bewildered.
"What...what's going on? Where is Maple God?"
"Wait, what's going on around us? Where did all these huge black curtains come from? They're even covering up the famous paintings."
"What is Feng Shen trying to do? Is he going to cover it up with a curtain and steal it directly?"
Not only were the people in the live stream stunned, but the people at the scene were also completely baffled.
They had long ago realized that the painting of water lilies hanging above was a fake, but what's going on now?
Chen Feng is going to steal that fake painting? Wasn't he supposed to have a strong ability to appraise antiques? How come he can't even tell if this painting is real or fake?
Unlike the others who were puzzled, Connery was immediately shocked upon seeing this situation.
In his eyes, the painting hanging on the wall was a genuine masterpiece! It was the real "Water Lilies" hidden beneath the guise of a fake!
Seeing this situation, Connery didn't have time to think much and quickly went to the spot where the painting "Water Lilies" was displayed.
Reaching out to touch it, even though there was a curtain, Connery could easily sense that the painting inside was still there, which made him breathe a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately... the painting is still there...
But Connery suddenly realized something.
Since the painting is still there, what about Kaito Kid? Where is he?
Before he could continue thinking, he heard a commotion at the scene.
"It's 'Water Lilies'! Those are 'Water Lilies' outside!"
"My God, a flock of white doves carrying a famous painting—this scene itself is a work of art!"
"That painting outside looks real, which means... Phantom Thief Kid succeeded?"
Hearing the whispers around him, Connery followed their gaze and looked out the window.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, a large flock of white doves seemed to be holding the painting "Water Lilies" aloft in mid-air, with other doves circling around it as if celebrating the world-famous painting.
In front of the flock of pigeons, by the floor-to-ceiling window, stood a graceful figure.
Wearing a white women's suit with a curvaceous figure, who else could it be but "Wendy"?
