Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

"Everyone says that Phantom Thief Kid has the amazing ability to communicate with animals, and I've witnessed it firsthand today."

A woman's voice came from behind Chen Feng at that moment.

Chen Feng wasn't too surprised. He simply stood up slowly and said, "Although I was invited here, I still want to say that it's a pleasure to meet you here, Miss Ophina."

Chen Feng placed his hands in front of him and bowed slightly in a gentlemanly manner.

Not far away, a woman whose stunning figure could not be concealed even by a loose shirt sat at the entrance of a small, retro-style castle.

In her left hand, clad in a black leather glove, she casually swirled a glass of red wine. Her legs, clad in high heels, were crossed, and she leaned back in her chair in a languid posture, showcasing her graceful figure to the fullest.

"Oh? I didn't make any appointments with anyone, Mr. Kidd."

Ophina gently stretched her body, her curves particularly striking in the moonlight. A slight smile curved her fiery red lips as she gently lifted her cheek and looked thoughtfully at Chen Feng.

Chen Feng raised his right hand, and the card between his index and middle fingers was the same pattern that Ophina had left on the pursuit team's official website.

He then calmly began to speak:

"The blazing sun is drawn on the right side of the design, and only the top corner of the entire image is in darkness."

The Galvis Islands are a long, narrow region. Most of the islands in the archipelago are located south of the Arctic Circle, except for this small island which is located inside the Arctic Circle, meaning that only here do people experience polar nights.

If we consider the sun as a clock hand, then it represents three o'clock!

"Clap clap-"

Ophina stood up from her seat, clapping her hands, her beautiful wine-red eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

"As expected of the Phantom Thief Kid, who has repeatedly caused police forces around the world to fail, he truly lives up to his reputation. I only posted a picture as a test, but I didn't expect that the Phantom Thief Kid, who hasn't appeared for a long time, would actually be here."

“I have studied almost all of your past behavior records. It is clear that we are the same kind of people who have our own pursuit of excitement.”

At this point, Ofina had already arrived in front of Chen Feng. With the help of seven-centimeter high heels, she was only slightly shorter than Chen Feng.

"I think we can cooperate."

"Oh?"

Chen Feng smiled and said, "Madam, rather than what kind of person you are, I'd like to know what I can gain from this cooperation?"

Ophina's slender fingers traced across Chen Feng's chest, moving upwards before her jade-like arms climbed up his neck. Her delicate chin rested lightly on Chen Feng's shoulder, and Chen Feng could even smell the perfume on her.

"That depends on what you want. What I can give you includes... me."

The warm, moist breath brushed against Chen Feng's ear, and the fiery red lips drew closer and closer, almost touching Chen Feng's face.

But at that moment, Chen Feng suddenly turned around and distanced himself from Ofina.

"I must admit your offer is very tempting, madam, but... I refuse!"

Chen Feng turned his head and gave Ofina his signature smile: "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

"and many more!"

Seeing that Chen Feng wasn't joking, Ophina also dropped her previous flippancy, and her expression became more serious:

“This challenge was officially issued by the pursuit team. They are very well prepared. You should have noticed that they… built a moving maze! I’m not entirely confident that I can escape unscathed under these circumstances, so I need help.”

Chen Feng did not interrupt her, but simply gestured for her to continue.

Ofina took a deep breath and said, "I've already sent out the announcement. I can forgo the goods once I get them. I gain the fame, you gain the profit. Besides, I can give you all the information I have. How about it?"

"In that case..."

Chen Feng turned around and extended his hand to Ofina: "I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration."

"of course."

Ofina also extended her hand, and the two shook hands gently, exchanging smiles.

But how much of that smile was genuine and how much was feigned, only they themselves probably know.

……

The next day.

morning.

When Chen Feng woke up, it was almost 9 o'clock.

Upon opening the door, Shangguan Lin, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looked up and glanced in their direction.

"Awake?" Shangguan Lin greeted her. "I didn't know what you wanted to eat, so I went to the breakfast shop and bought a portion of everything. I also made you a cup of coffee and put it in a thermos. You can pour it yourself."

Chen Feng walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite Shangguan Lin, his gaze sweeping over the seven or eight exquisitely arranged boxes on the table.

They have everything: steamed buns, fried dough sticks, pies, sushi, and sandwiches.

Picking up the pink thermos next to him, Chen Feng unscrewed it, and the aroma of coffee wafted out. He took a small sip, feeling the warm coffee slide down his throat, and his face showed pure enjoyment.

"Miss Lin, I can't even imagine how happy your boyfriend will be in the future."

Chen Feng casually picked up a small steamed bun, took a bite, and smiled at Shangguan Lin.

Shangguan Lin was also looking at him: "If you and Xiaoxi live together, I can take care of you like this every day."

"Heh... I'll definitely visit you guys for a few days if I get the chance," Chen Feng replied with a light laugh.

Shangguan Lin stopped dwelling on the topic and simply watched Chen Feng eat quietly.

"What were you doing last night? You didn't come back until after 4 a.m."

"Hmm?" Chen Feng looked up: "Did I wake you up?"

Shangguan Lin gently shook her head: "No, I was a little thirsty, so I woke up on my own and just happened to hear you come back."

"Really?" Chen Feng took another sip of coffee from his thermos. "Yesterday... I met a very interesting person."

……

Chapter 437 The Cunning Ophina

"A very...interesting person?"

Shangguan Lin was taken aback, but Chen Feng just smiled and didn't continue, so she didn't ask any more questions.

After breakfast.

Chen Feng then went out, while Shangguan Lin chose to stay in the apartment to pack her things.

According to her itinerary, she plans to leave by plane tomorrow, first to the capital, and then transfer to a plane back to H city.

I took a taxi to the vicinity of the maze bunker. There were still many people there, although not as many as last night. There were still quite a few tourists coming and going.

According to official data, more than 20 people on the wanted list were arrested last night alone. Most of them were arrested directly by the pursuit team, and some did not even know how they were exposed until they were arrested.

This also confirms that the authorities are serious about this pursuit.

"The young couple at the 8 o'clock position."

"The uncle reading a newspaper on the bench at the 12 o'clock position."

"A young man setting up a street stall at the 5 o'clock position."

"The preparations are really thorough. There are so many people arranged just around the perimeter, and this is before the event has even started."

Chen Feng's gaze swept over the people around him. Those people were unaware that they had been exposed and were still sticking to their posts, vigilantly watching for anyone who might be a suspect.

Chen Feng wandered around inside, taking photos and checking in, just like an ordinary tourist, and didn't arouse anyone's suspicion.

It was afternoon.

Inside a luxury hotel room not far from the maze bunker.

Ophina, casually wrapped in a bathrobe, was sipping red wine while watching the live surveillance footage transmitted to her computer with great interest.

Clearly, she had hacked into the pursuit team's computer system again.

"Ok?"

A slight noise behind her caught her attention, and Ofina immediately put on a teasing smile, saying:

"Breaking into a lady's room doesn't seem like very gentlemanly behavior, does it, Mr. Phantom Thief?"

no respond.

A look of surprise crossed Ofina's delicate face. She got up and went to the window, scanning the surroundings with a scrutinizing gaze before finally opening the window.

But still, no one was there.

Did I mishear?

But just then, a voice rang out behind her: "Surely it shouldn't be considered trespassing for a lady to personally open the window to invite someone in?"

"Ah……"

Upon hearing this voice, Ofina closed the window again, turned around, and sure enough, Chen Feng, dressed in white, had appeared in her room, sitting on the sofa and looking at her with a smile.

Upon seeing the visitor, Ophina didn't react much, simply sitting down on the sofa and casually picking up the wine bottle:

“Actually, even if Mr. Kidd really barged in, I wouldn’t be angry. Or... you could exchange our cooperation for a different reward.”

Ophina raised her fair neck, exposing her delicate collarbone beneath her bathrobe. She must have just taken a shower, as her slightly damp hair cascaded down her neck and casually fell over her shoulders, making her incredibly alluring.

"Let's forget about it. I'm more interested in the previous payment."

Chen Feng showed no interest in taking up the topic and declined with a smile.

Ophina glanced at Chen Feng with a look that seemed both resentful and regretful before handing him the glass of wine she had just poured.

"Please sit here for a while, I'll go get the documents."

"it is good."

Ophina got up and left, leaving Chen Feng alone in the large room.

Chen Feng held his wine glass, his gaze sweeping around.

The ground was clean, with no litter, and clothes and furniture were neatly arranged. It was clear that even though it was just a temporary residence, Ofina had strict requirements for her living environment.

Chen Feng looked around and finally focused his gaze on the two bottles of red wine on the table.

"Burgundy and Bordeaux? Hercule Poirot's two favorite red wines."

(Note: Hercule Poirot, also known as the great detective Hercule Poirot, is the masterpiece of Agatha Christie, the Queen of Crime, and was once considered on par with Sherlock Holmes.)
