Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

-

March 3, night, Gotham High School dance.

Thousands of students reveled in the playground, with handsome men and beautiful women dancing together.

Passionate music was playing on the stage in the center of the playground.

When you get tired of dancing, you can rest on the grass outside, or play some board games with others and have a picnic. Some people even set up tents, and they don’t know what they are going to do.

"Look, girls, I have nothing on my hands."

At this moment, Dick was showing magic on the grass, surrounded by four young and beautiful girls.

I saw him showing his hands, letting the girls see that he had nothing on them.

Then Dick started his magic. With a quick flick of his right hand, a card suddenly appeared.

Then shake it a second time, and the second card changes out, until the fourth card comes out empty-handed.

"How about it?"

Dick asked proudly. Under Dean's previous training, his skills were now perfect.

"Richard, the magic trick of conjuring cards with bare hands has been performed countless times on TV. It's not new at all!"

Unexpectedly, the girls didn't buy it at all. No matter how powerful the magic technique is, it will not be popular if it is too cliché.

"Don't worry, the transformation is not finished yet."

Dick smiled slightly.

"Look at these four cards, I'm going to put them together with both hands now."

I saw Dick put the four cards together with both hands, held them tightly, and covered all the cards with his hands.

After a slight pause for a second or two, his hands suddenly opened to both sides. The four playing cards that should have been revealed disappeared and turned into a bright red rose.

"This branch is for you, beautiful lady."

Dick handed the flower to the first girl on the left.

The latter suddenly showed an expression of surprise.

"Hey! Why just give it to her, and what about us?"

The other girls were not happy.

"Don't forget, there are four playing cards."

Dick waved his hand and said, and the other three female voices were stunned when they heard this.

He closed his hands again, and when he opened them, there was another red rose in his hands.

"This branch is for you, my lovely lady."

Dick handed the flower to the second girl on the left.

Then he followed the same pattern and conjured four flowers, one for each person.

Chapter 73 Now I want to show off

"Where did you hide the flowers, Richard?"

The four girls accepted the red roses and asked curiously.

"Well, I'm sorry I can't tell you, because it's a magician's secret."

Dick spread his hands and blinked.

"Clap clap clap!"

A burst of applause came from the side.

"You're getting pretty good. You've made rapid progress during this period."

Several people looked around and saw a young man with black hair and blue eyes, handsome appearance, slender figure, wearing a black tuxedo and a black top hat walking over.

A common magician outfit.

"Am I right? That's Dean Thaston!"

The moment they saw this young man, the eyes of the girls in front of Dick immediately lit up, and they gathered around to introduce themselves to him.

"Hi! Dean, I'm Lisanna." "I'm Lucy." "Lebby." "Kana."

"Hello everyone, I'm Dean Thaston."

Dean smiled and nodded to them, thinking to himself: "None of them have seen it before... Are they girls from other classes, or are they from the lower grades? No, she must be a junior school girl who looks so immature! By the way, Where did Dick meet so many girls?"

"Dean, we are all your fans. We used to watch your magic shows on TV. It was such a pity that you left the stage later. Can you sign your autograph for us?"

Several elementary school girls looked at Dean expectantly.

"Uh... yes, yes, but I don't have a pen with me. Let's wait until the next meeting. We are both from the same school anyway, so there will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future."

As soon as he heard the word "signature", Dean said it very smoothly, his expression was as usual and his speech was clear. It was probably not the first time he said it.

"Hey! Dean, it's my show time now! You came here and snatched all my girls away!"

On the other side, Dick stared at Dean with an unhappy expression and said angrily.

"That only shows that you haven't mastered your skills yet."

When Dean heard this, he suddenly thought of something interesting and said with a slight smile: "The competition among magicians is very fierce. If you can't protect your audience, you will be eliminated sooner or later."

He asked Lucy beside him: "Excuse me, could you lend me the flower you are holding?"

"Of course, I'd love to."

Lucy nodded repeatedly and handed over the red rose in her hand.

Dean brought the flower over and held the rose between his hands, one hand on the petals and one on the stem.

"What color do you prefer?"

Then Dean asked.

"yellow."

Lucy said without thinking.

"Okay, yellow, very nice, I like this color too."

As Dean spoke, his upper and lower hands came together instantly, and it looked like he had crushed the flower into his palms.

"Oh!"

Several girls were startled by Dean's actions.

Dean smiled, curled his left hand into a fist, and slowly moved his right hand away.

A piece of yellow silk cloth was slowly pulled out from the gap in Dean's left fist, and the red rose disappeared from his hand at some point.

As Dean's right hand pulled farther and farther, the silk cloth pulled out became longer and longer.

When the length was about one meter, Dean gently twisted the two corners of the silk cloth with both hands and unfolded it.

"How did you hide such a long silk cloth in your hand? And where did the rose go?"

Seeing this scene, the four girls stretched out their hands to cover their mouths. Even though they knew that the essence of magic was just deceptive tricks, they would still be amazed when they saw it with their own eyes.

Because no matter how much I imagine, I still can't understand how others do it. Even if I understand it, I can't see what's wrong at all.

Dick next to him was also attracted by Dean's hand. He could easily guess the principle of the magic. In fact, this was not an advanced magic that was difficult to see through, because it turned one thing into another. This is the basic skill of a magician.

However, even with Dick's eyesight, he didn't see when Dean moved his hands and feet just now.

The biggest difficulty is, how does Dean know that Lucy likes yellow? In other words, how did Dean induce Lucy to choose yellow?

If Dean had one of each color of silk cloth, how did he hide it?

Therefore, there are some secrets that people in the industry can't really see. This has little to do with eyesight and brains.

At this moment, Dick suddenly had an idea and an idea came to his mind.

"Perhaps, in the future, Dean can help expose Kidd's magic tricks, but I can't reveal Robin's identity, so I can't just ask him for help... How about asking Barbara to ask?"

"Do you like pigeons?"

Dean didn't know what Dick was thinking, so he calmly asked the four school girls.

"It seems like you don't like it very much, but it doesn't matter. You will fall in love with pigeons after today."

Dean reached out and took off the top hat from his head, turning it upside down for Lucy to hold.

"As you can see, this is a very normal hat with no mechanism inside."

Lucy carefully observed the top hat with excitement, and found that nothing looked like it had any mechanism.

Immediately afterwards, Dean covered the top hat with the yellow silk cloth he had just conjured.

"Miss Lucy, please hold your hat tightly and don't drop it on the ground."

Dean reminded with a smile and Lucy nodded heavily.

"Now, I'm going to put a magical spell on this hat."

Dean closed his eyes, placed his hands in the air above the hat covered by silk cloth, and said mysteriously.

Seeing his serious look, several girls looked at Dean and couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and their expressions became nervous.

After muttering a few spells that he didn't understand, Dean suddenly opened his eyes and instantly lifted the silk cloth on his hat.

Lucy suddenly felt the top hat in her hand begin to tremble slightly.

"Cuckoo-cuckoo-cuckoo--"

A series of cooing sounds sounded from inside the hat, followed by small and cute snow-white doves flying out of the top hat.

Dean stretched out his hands, and the pigeon immediately fell into his hands as if it had received instructions, amidst the shocked and admiring looks of several girls.

On the lawn not far away, other students heard the cry of pigeons and noticed the situation on Dean's side.

"Guys! Look over there, isn't that Dean Thaston? Is he doing magic for those girls?"

"What! Dean Thaston? Then I can't miss it!"

"You can actually let Dean perform magic tricks for them in person. Those bitches...why do those women? I want him to perform magic tricks for me too!"

More and more students are gathering here.

Chapter 74 What is a calculator?

As more and more people came to Dean's side, the movement became louder and louder.

Students from other places were also attracted to the magic. After asking around curiously, they discovered that it was Dean Thaston, one of the most popular figures on campus, who was performing magic.

It's worth it!

Regardless of the students who are in the same school as Dean, the magic tricks performed by Dean are not what they want to see.

After all, Dean's reputation is very popular among young people, and there are countless people who want to see his unique skills, which will tire Dean to death sooner or later.

And in the past two years, Dean has tried his best to keep a low profile so that he can gradually fade out of people's sight.

Dean would only show off his skills when the school held large events, like today.

Most students originally thought that Dean would perform formally on the big stage in the center of the playground, but they didn't expect that he would perform street magic directly outside the field...?

What else is there to say? Hurry and run over there. If you go late, you will definitely not be able to squeeze into the front row and miss the best audience seats. Wouldn’t that be a loss of blood?

Even many students who were dancing on the field and watching the performance on the side of the stage decisively left their place and ran to watch Dean's magic show.

Most of them are girls.

As a result, most of the audience under the stage suddenly disappeared, leaving Ai Kun, who was performing, singing and dancing on the stage, confused.

"Cause I got a crush on you who you..."

Listening to the accompaniment playing on the stereo, Ai Kun inexplicably lost interest in singing.

On Dean's side, the number of spectators suddenly increased dozens or hundreds of times, forming three circles on the left and three on the right with Dean as the center.

Lucy and the other four girls had never experienced the feeling of being surrounded by so many people, and there was a faint expression of nervousness and excitement on their faces.
