Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

Amya muttered to herself, then slowly turned her head and called out towards the door:

“Mil”.

The office door opened, and Mill appeared inside.

“Your Highness,” Mir said respectfully.

Looking at Mill at the door, Amy turned off her phone and slowly said, "Go and book me a plane ticket to New York."

"New York?"

Mir was somewhat surprised.

"Your Highness, what brings you to New York? We don't seem to have any plans to go to New York recently."

"It was just a spur-of-the-moment idea."

Amya smiled slightly, rose from her chair, walked to the office window, gazed at the distant scenery, and uttered something incomprehensible:

"After all... many wonderful performances are impromptu..."

Chapter 178 The Two Detectives Team Up!

Two days later.

In New York, USA, a number of reporters had been waiting in front of the Layton Group building for some time.

Of course, it remains unknown how many of them are genuine journalists and how many are imposters in disguise.

After all, since the Leiden Foundation issued its challenge, participants from all over the world have flocked to the event.

As the news said, the world is never short of knights who dare to challenge windmills, but it is clear that most knights do not have the strength to do so.

In just the past week, New York's pursuit team has already captured 10 contestants, including two who were notorious for their bounties, but they have also fallen here.

"coming!"

Someone called out first, and then two strikingly beautiful women walked over in unison.

The person on the left has an Asian face, is tall, and has a cold expression. He seems to exude an aura that keeps strangers at bay. He is Ouyang Muxue, who previously served as an advisor to the pursuit team in the 3rd district of China.

The person on the right has the exact opposite temperament to Ouyang Muxue. She is dressed in a bright red coat and has a very enthusiastic smile on her face.

The face was quite familiar; it was Wendy, the champion of the European division of the World Detective Competition, whom Chen Feng had once impersonated!

Even though they had heard some rumors beforehand, the reporters present were still somewhat unsettled when they saw renowned detectives from both China and Western Europe appear at the same time.

They rushed forward with microphones, only to be quickly stopped by security personnel responsible for maintaining order.

"Miss Ouyang! Did you travel all the way from China just to deal with the remaining contestants?"

"Miss Wendy, what do you think about Kid impersonating you before?"

"Miss Ouyang, aren't you afraid of attracting Kidd by sending out challenge letters to all the contestants in such a high-profile manner?"

"Ladies detectives, I'd like to ask you if you're confident in dealing with the [fugitives] constantly arriving from all over?"

"Miss Wendy..."

One question after another came from the audience.

Ouyang Muxue and Wendy exchanged a glance. After a brief exchange of glances, Ouyang Muxue stepped forward first and spoke:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the two of us are the detective consultants hired by the Rice Foundation for this challenge, and also the security leaders for this event. Our job is to deal specifically with the [fugitives] who come from all over the world to take on the challenge."

Are you satisfied with my answer, Mr. Fugitive…

A rare smile appeared on Ouyang Muxue's cold and beautiful face as she looked at the reporter holding a microphone in front of her.

Upon hearing Ouyang Muxue's words, the reporter was startled, a forced smile appearing on his lips: "Miss Ouyang, please don't joke around."

"Ah……"

Wendy chuckled and stepped forward, saying, "Sir, your disguise skills are really poor. Next time, remember to cover up the calluses on your right hand from practicing shooting."

As soon as he finished speaking, the reporter abandoned all pretense, quickly threw down the microphone, and fled outside.

His reaction was quick, but the security personnel who were prepared around him reacted even faster. Before he could take a few steps, two security personnel pounced on him and pinned him to the ground.

"Let me go! I'm just an ordinary reporter! Let me go!"

The man tried to argue, but the two security guards didn't want to give him the chance. They handcuffed his hands and took him away.

The other reporters around seemed stunned by the scene before them. After a brief pause of two seconds, they quickly pulled their own photographers over and snapped a few pictures, preparing to write their reports as soon as they got back.

These are all major news stories!

After the interlude ended, Wendy looked back at the reporters, parted her lips slightly, and spoke again.

"Someone just asked me, 'Aren't you afraid of attracting Kidd's attention by doing this?' I can tell you clearly that this challenge is open to all participants, including Kidd!"

Snapped!

clap clap-

One person started clapping, and then the audience erupted in applause.

The reporters looked excited; clearly, they had gotten the sensational news they wanted from Ouyang Muxue and her companion.

No one noticed that a young man in the corner was watching them with a smile on his face.

"Two young female detectives? Now that's more like a challenge..."

Chen Feng muttered to himself, and was about to turn and leave when his gaze was quickly drawn to a stretched Lincoln that had just stopped.

squeak-

The Lincoln's wheels screeched as they screeched against the ground before coming to a quick stop, drawing the attention of everyone present.

The car door slowly opened.

A pair of long, straight legs in high heels stepped out of the car first, followed by a woman in a suit with a good figure and an air of authority.

Luxurious, aloof, elegant, and possessing an otherworldly charm.

These words fit her perfectly.

"Amya?"

Not far away, Chen Feng was slightly taken aback when he saw Amya getting out of the car. He even stopped in his tracks and continued to look ahead.

clap clap-

Amya stepped forward, clapping, with her assistant Mil and several bodyguards surrounding her.

"It seems that the two young detectives are quite confident."

Amya parted her red lips slightly and spoke.

"Amya?"

Wendy was taken aback. Although she and Amya weren't exactly close, they were acquaintances.

But... she didn't remember Amya liking to join in the fun, so why did she suddenly come here? What does this mean?

Wendy had been on polar expeditions or explorations recently and didn't pay much attention to what was happening online, but Ouyang Muxue was all too aware of the rumors between Amy and Chen Feng.

From the initial Heart of the Ocean incident to the theft of "Starlight's Gaze" at the Luoerqing Kingdom auction, and then to the birthday banquet incident, one thing after another, if you say that there was nothing between her and Chen Feng, she would never believe it even if you beat her to death!

Upon seeing Amya arrive in person, Ouyang Muxue had already guessed her purpose.

However, given the other party's status, this matter couldn't be stated openly, so he could only politely inquire:

"Miss Amya, what brings you here? Are you also interested in this matter?"

"That's it."

Amya smiled and spoke, not denying it, but she also gave herself a legitimate excuse:

"However, the main purpose of my sudden visit here is to discuss charitable donations. I hope to cooperate with the Leiden Foundation to donate some daily necessities and learning materials to children in impoverished mountainous areas."

Amya's reason was indeed quite good. In addition, she often represented the royal family of the Kingdom of Lorqing at various charity events. Now, using this as an excuse, no one would doubt her.

Even the reporters spoke with a mixture of sincerity and flattery:

"Miss Amya is truly passionate about charity."

"Yes, it must have been so hard for them to travel all the way to the United States for charity."

"Truly admirable..."

……

P.S.: Thank you everyone for the gifts, I'm so grateful!

Chapter 179 Reunion with Amya

Looking at Amya in front of her, Ouyang Muxue frowned slightly.

Although the princess from Western Europe did not demonstrate any particular strength, her detective instincts alerted her to a hostile intent.

“Since Miss Amya has come here on business, we won’t bother her any longer. Wendy, let’s go.”

After saying that, Ouyang Muxue didn't continue the conversation and turned to leave with Wendy.

Upon seeing the two preparing to leave, the reporters present became anxious and raised their microphones to continue the interview, but were stopped by security personnel and had no choice but to stop.

But soon someone realized what was happening and looked in Amy's direction.

"Miss Amya, you mentioned earlier that you are interested in this challenge. Could you please elaborate on what exactly you are interested in?"

As soon as one reporter finished speaking, the other reporters reacted and rushed towards Amya's direction.

"Miss Amya, will you be attending this challenge in person?"

"Miss Amya, do you think someone will succeed in stealing King Cross's treasure from the bottom of the sea this time?"
