Chapter 138 A fake painting? A real painting? Or a fake painting!

"Miss Wendy?"

Looking at Wendy by the window, leaning against the Water Lilies, Connery blinked twice and froze.

He immediately realized, "Wait a minute! You're Phantom Thief Kid! What did you do to Miss Wendy?"

Seeing that Connery still hadn't figured it out, Chen Feng didn't explain. He simply turned around, slowly pushed open the window, and his white figure immediately appeared in the eyes of the fans outside.

"It is an honor to meet you all here."

Facing the fans outside, Chen Feng placed his hands in front of him and bowed gracefully.

"KID!!!"

"KID!!!"

"KID!!!!!"

The atmosphere outside reached its peak the moment Chen Feng appeared.

The live stream chat was flooded with "Feng Shen" almost simultaneously.

Seeing that Chen Feng ignored him, Connery felt embarrassed and was about to order someone to arrest him, but then he remembered something.

He quickly called for several security personnel to stand in front of him and separate him from Chen Feng, in order to ensure the safety of the "genuine" painting hanging on the wall.

Seeing that Chen Feng seemed unaware that the painting in his hand was just a fake, and was still greeting the fans below, Connery couldn't help but reveal a smug smile:

"Kaito Kid is nothing special..."

Connor muttered something to himself in a voice only he could hear, glanced at the "original" Water Lilies on the wall behind him, then quickly looked away, pretending nothing had happened.

"Mr. Connery."

Chen Feng suddenly turned his head.

The silvery moonlight shone on half of Chen Feng's face from the side, and the smile on his lips seemed like a declaration of victory, or perhaps... a mockery of someone who knew all his secrets...

Connery shook his head abruptly, interrupting his train of thought.

impossible!

As long as the real painting is still with him, the more smug this damned thief is now, the more ridiculous he will be when the truth is revealed!

However, Chen Feng did not seem to intend to mock him.

He simply stretched out his hand, and the dozens of white doves around him, which were holding up the frame of the painting "Water Lilies," immediately understood and flapped their wings to hand the painting to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng's tone remained gentle, but his words left Connery with a strange feeling:

"Thank you for your help. I will accept this painting from Mr. Monet, who lived 200 years ago."

As soon as he finished speaking, white doves poured in through the window, landing one by one on Chen Feng until they completely covered him.

When the white doves dispersed, the spot was completely empty.

As Chen Feng disappeared, the previously quiet atmosphere gradually became lively.

Many people looked in Connery's direction, their eyes filled with obvious mockery.

However, Connery was too preoccupied to respond to them, and was instead frowning as he recalled Chen Feng's words.

"Thank you for your help? What does that mean? When did I help him?"

Connery muttered to himself.

jingle--

The long-silent phone emitted a crisp text message tone.

Connery picked it up and saw that it was a message from "Wendy," who had been in contact with him all along. It was a forwarded news article:

On December 17th, Wendy, a world-renowned detective and former champion of the European division of the World Detective Contest, joined an Antarctic expedition team for a 21-day scientific exploration deep into the Antarctic Circle. Wendy stated that this is part of her world travel and exploration plan, and that she will continue to explore other places after the expedition concludes…

The news was actually released a while ago, but it happened during Amya's birthday party, so it didn't cause much of a stir.

The news article was long, but Connery was no longer in the mood to read it.

The sentence, "Miss Wendy accompanied the Antarctic expedition team into the Antarctic Circle for exploration," exploded in Connery's mind like a bomb, leaving him stunned on the spot.

"Wendy...is in Antarctica right now..."

Connery stared wide-eyed and muttered to himself, "Then who was that Miss Wendy from before...?"

Connery didn't finish his sentence, but he already guessed the real answer; he just didn't want to believe it.

This scene was also witnessed by the viewers in the live broadcast room:

"What's wrong with this person? Why does he look like he's gone mad?"

"Could he have been scared out of his wits by Feng Shen? No way! Almost all the exhibitions in Luoerqing Kingdom were canceled before, but he went against the tide and held an exhibition of famous paintings. I thought he had a strong mentality, but... this is it?"

"Holy crap! Has this guy gone insane from all that stress?"

"Holy crap, is it really that serious? It's not like the production team isn't going to compensate him, is it really necessary to go to such lengths?"

The crowd at the scene reacted much like the netizens when they saw Connery in this state, and they all started whispering among themselves.

Connery, however, seemed to have thought of something, and his gaze suddenly turned towards the Water Lilies hanging on the wall.

He quickly rushed to the wall and frantically began tearing at the black curtain covering the painting, while simultaneously beckoning the security guards nearby to come and help.

Soon, thanks to the efforts of the security personnel, the large black curtain that Chen Feng had used to cover the wall paintings during his operation was torn down.

The painting "Water Lilies" hanging above once again came into view.

"Another 'Water Lilies' painting? How many does he actually have?"

"Are you stupid? Judging from his expression, the one Feng Shen took was definitely the real thing! This one is definitely a fake!"

"The person upstairs is right. As a professional scholar, I assure you that this painting is absolutely a fake!"

The chat room was filled with scrolling comments.

Connery, who was in the lobby, had already taken down the painting.

Amidst the puzzled gazes of everyone present, Connery scratched at the painting.

Soon, a hole was torn in the surface of the painting, and Connery applied force directly to the hole.

stab-

The fake painting above was torn open, revealing what was inside.

Below, there was still the exact same painting, without any difference.

The only extra item was a small white card sandwiched between two paintings in the lower left corner:

As if in advance, I have already found the elegant "Water Lilies" in the quiet.

— Respectfully submitted by Phantom Thief Kid.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully stolen Monet's "Water Lilies". Reward: Kaito Kid card fusion level *5%]

Inside a private room at a high-end restaurant in Geerch.

The system notification sounded in Chen Feng's mind precisely after the operation was completed.

Chen Feng slightly raised his eyes, but ignored him.

The sound of the door to the private room being pushed open rang out, and then a graceful figure, fully covered up, walked in from outside.

Chapter 139 That Despicable Guy

A graceful figure sat down in front of Chen Feng.

After confirming that no one was around, she reached out and took off her sunglasses and mask, revealing a beautiful face—it was Amya.

"Welcome, Miss Amy."

As soon as Amy put her mask and sunglasses aside, Chen Feng presented her with a blue rose.

Amy accepted the rose and said thank you.

Looking at the exquisite dishes laid out on the table, Amya's red lips curved slightly, her light blue eyes sweeping over Chen Feng in front of her, and she smiled as she spoke:

"Mr. Phantom Thief, is this how you thank me for my help? A meal and... a flower? Isn't that a bit too simple?"

"Oh?"

Chen Feng met Amya's gaze without flinching: "What does Your Highness desire?"

"Um……"

Amy hesitated for a moment before looking at Chen Feng: "I don't seem to lack anything. If you want it..."

Amy paused, her gaze towards Chen Feng becoming much more serious: "I think what I want now is for a certain thief to be present in the rest of my life as my boyfriend."

When she said this, Amya didn't seem to be joking; her beautiful eyes never left Chen Feng's.

We await his reply.

Although Chen Feng was prepared, he did not expect Amy to be so direct.

Without any build-up, she went straight to confessing her feelings, leaving Chen Feng momentarily at a loss for words.

exactly.

At that moment, the door to the private room was knocked on again.

"Sir, your wine has been decanted. Would it be convenient to bring it in now?"
