"Yes, Your Highness."

"What do you think would happen if that Phantom Thief Kid actually managed to evade everyone's eyes and obtain the Heart of the Ocean, only to find out it was a fake?"

"I bet his expression was priceless!"

"I think so too..."

……

Having obtained the information he wanted, Chen Feng took off his headphones in front of the computer screen.

He glanced at the time; it was already late. He had no interest in prying into a lady's privacy; that was hardly something a gentleman should do.

Chen Feng closed the laptop and lay down on the bed.

After carefully considering the details of tomorrow's operation, a smile finally appeared on his lips:

“Miss Amya, you are quite an interesting lady.”

……

Time passed slowly, and soon it was nine o'clock in the evening of the second day.

There was still an hour left before the time on Kidd's appointment letter. Many viewers of "The Thief Game" came to see him, and even some viewers from other places came to the scene.

Just to see if Chen Feng could really keep the promises made in the appointment letter.

The production team also thoughtfully switched the footage from Chen Feng's live stream to the exhibition venue.

As a result, the live stream's popularity soared, quickly reaching over 30 viewers.

Xixi, who was the host, was also arranged to come inside the venue.

"Hello everyone in the live stream, this is the live stream of the [Thief Game] China Region 3. I am your host, Xixi."

"I believe many friends in the live stream are waiting for Chen Feng to arrive, just like me."

"His amazing magic tricks previously gave us a unique shock. I wonder what kind of surprise he will bring us this time? It's getting closer and closer to 10 o'clock, so let's look forward to it!"

As Xixi explained, the chat in the live stream never stopped.

"It's already nine o'clock, why hasn't Chen Feng shown up yet? Is he too scared to come?"

"Why are you so talkative? There's still an hour left. Are you in such a hurry to get home and catch your partner cheating? Or are you not going to live past this hour? You're the only one in such a rush!"

"That's right, if Feng Shen says he'll be here at ten o'clock, he'll definitely be here at ten o'clock. You don't need to worry about it."

"You bastard, who are you calling a jerk?"

"I'll yell at anyone who answers!"

"You son of a bitch, do you dare give me your address? I'm coming to find you right now!"

"Come on then! I live in ** Community, ** County, ** City! Come on if you dare!"

"You brat, you just wait!"

……

At this moment, the young man disguised as Chen Feng also entered the exhibition hall and was silently observing his surroundings.

There was no doubt that there were many more "special" guests at the scene than yesterday.

The Ocean Heart counter was under special protection, with four burly men from the Kingdom of Lorqing standing guard around it, wielding iron bars and preventing anyone from approaching.

Chen Feng remained calm and quietly searched for his target.

Before long, two Lorqing Kingdom repairmen dressed in work clothes came into Chen Feng's view on the west side.

"Brother, what bad luck! Why did it have to be the two of us on this damn shift? It's all that awful Chinese guy's fault. Why did he have to steal things while we were on duty? Now I can't even slack off properly!"

One of them complained angrily.

"Shh! Keep your voice down, Lyle, don't let anyone hear you!" The person next to him quickly reminded him.

Lyle, however, didn't care: "Alright, Caris, don't be so timid. We're speaking Lorqing language, they can't understand it."

"It's better to be careful," Caris insisted.

Lyle couldn't argue with him anymore, so he stopped. He glanced around, his eyes darting around as if he had thought of a good idea. He nudged Caris beside him with his elbow and whispered:

"Hey bro, it's still early, wanna go to the bathroom and have a smoke?"

"Now?" Caris hesitated.

"If anyone finds out we've abandoned our posts, we're dead!"

"What are you afraid of!" Lyle continued to persuade, "Those lazybones are probably playing cards in the monitoring room, they don't care about us!"

Hearing Lyle say that, Caris was also somewhat tempted, but after thinking about it for a moment, he shook his head: "Never mind, you go by yourself, I won't go."

Lyle was a little disappointed: "Alright then, but bro, don't betray me!"

Am I that kind of person?

"That's good, brother, I'm off."

After saying that, Lyle put down the repair kit in his hand, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly walked towards the bathroom.

"This Caris is so cowardly, no wonder he hasn't been promoted in three years."

Upon entering the restroom, Lyle first grumbled, then eagerly took out the cigarettes from his pocket.

He hadn't smoked for four hours, which was unbearable for a long-time smoker!

"I've never tried Chinese cigarettes before!" Lyle said, taking out a cigarette, his longing growing stronger.

But the next second, reality dealt him a heavy blow.

"Damn it! I didn't bring any fire!" Lyle cursed under his breath, but had no choice but to push open the door and come out of the cubicle.

I happened to bump into a young man wearing sunglasses and a plaid shirt.

Upon seeing someone, Lyle's extinguished hope rekindled, and he quickly used his limited Chinese, along with gestures, to communicate with the young man.

"Friend...I...you...help..."

Lyle's comical language, with a cigarette in one hand and gestures in the other, seemed to work.

The young man took out a lighter from his pocket and asked, "Do you need this?"

Chapter 9 Kidd Time

"Thank you!" Lyle was overjoyed. He quickly took the lighter, lit his cigarette, and took a deep drag!

call--

He was captivated by the rich aroma of nicotine.

When he tried to return the lighter to the young man, the young man had vanished in the blink of an eye.

"Hmm?" Lyle was a little puzzled but didn't think much of it. He figured she probably went to some other cubicle.

Besides, what's more important than a lighter?

Thinking this, Lyle took another deep drag, smoking off a third of the cigarette in two puffs.

You know what, these Chinese cigarettes really do have a unique flavor, but... they seem a bit strong... and... they're making me sleepier the more I smoke them...

The next second, Lyle collapsed to the ground uncontrollably, with a half-burnt cigarette still in his hand.

At this moment, the youth who had just disappeared reappeared; the youth was naturally Chen Feng in disguise.

Seeing Lyle lying on the ground, Chen Feng thoughtfully carried him into the cubicle and locked the door.

When he came out again, he had completely transformed into Lyle's appearance.

Lyle slowly walked to the mirror, a smile playing on her lips: "The performance officially begins!"

……

After leaving the restroom, Lyle returned to her seat.

"Hmm?" Caris looked at Lyle with some surprise: "Why are you back so soon?"

According to his memory, Lyle would always stay in the bathroom for at least half an hour when he went to smoke. How come he came back so quickly this time?

"Don't even mention it!" Lyle said, looking annoyed.

"I had just gotten to the restroom and hadn't even taken out a cigarette when I received an order to go check the alarm system of the 'Heart of the Ocean' display case again. What bad luck!"

Upon hearing Lyle's words, Caris almost laughed but felt it was inappropriate, nearly causing him internal injury from holding it in.

He could only console him, saying, "Alright, brother, it won't take much time. You can go smoke after you're done!"

"That's the only way," Lyle replied helplessly.

He then picked up the repair kit and walked toward the Ocean Heart counter.

In fact, Chen Feng already knew that the Heart of the Ocean in the display case was fake, so he could completely ignore it.

Unfortunately, the others didn't know that in order to maintain the perfection of the performance, Chen Feng decided to accept the fake gem as well!

The area around the counter of 【Heart of the Ocean】 was undoubtedly the most crowded, with four burly men surrounding it, blocking those who wanted to get closer.

Fortunately, the four guards clearly recognized "Lyle," so they did not interfere when they saw "Lyle" approaching the [Heart of the Ocean] counter with a repair kit.

One person even nodded slightly to Chen Feng as a greeting.

In the monitoring room, a security guard from Luoerqing, whose face was covered in white plasters, seemed to notice the unusual activity at the Ocean Heart counter and quickly spoke up to remind them:

"Hey guys, what are those people doing at the Ocean Heart counter?"

Upon hearing the words "Heart of the Ocean," the four people who were playing cards immediately snapped out of their daze and hurriedly looked at the monitor.

But they soon discovered it was a false alarm.

"It's that bastard Lyle! He's carrying his damn repair kit, checking the counter. Never mind."

Upon hearing this, the young man from the Qing Kingdom of Luoer relaxed slightly, but his eyes still kept glancing at the surveillance camera.

The head of the security team from the Lorqing Kingdom seemed to see his worries and reassured him, "Alright, don't worry. The [Heart of the Ocean] counter is equipped with the most advanced anti-theft system. Even the slightest operational error or strong breach will trigger the alarm."

Hearing the captain's words, the young man nodded and stopped worrying about the surveillance.
