"Sir, I am not interested in your great adventure at the moment."
"Before that, you need to prove your talent first."
"Over the years, there have been many imitators who have used Deyu's name."
Guinevere was not moved by Zhao Cheng's "sincerity" at all.
Indeed, whether it is the armband or the words of agreement, they are all in good condition, proving the authenticity of what the other party said.
But in the business of being a monster thief, the most important thing is not to inherit the name, but to have enough talent.
There are many people who want to become Phantom Thieves in the world, and there are countless imitators, but for more than a hundred years, there has been only one Tokuyu.
She admitted that she was a little moved when she heard what Zhao Cheng said about the great adventure, but compared to being moved, she was more cautious and steady. Not everyone was qualified to be her teammate.
If you find the wrong partner in business, you will only lose money; if you find the wrong partner in this business, you will easily lose your life.
"It's natural."
Zhao Cheng nodded.
"However, my existence itself is the best proof."
"Look at me carefully."
Zhao Cheng suddenly stretched out his hand, and the afterglow of the setting sun passed through the gap in the curtain, making Zhao Cheng's hand even more transparent.
It was as if the person in front of me was not a living person, but a ghost.
If an ordinary girl saw this scene, she would be instantly frightened.
But she was different from ordinary people. After being slightly startled, she frowned and said, "Holographic projection?!"
"That's right!"
Zhao Cheng nodded and stood up. As he got up from the sofa, the head-sized machine equipment on the sofa was immediately revealed. At the same time, as he worked, the projection also became slightly distorted.
At the same time, Guinevere also discovered that the machine not only had the function of projection, but also had the function of ejection. The previous armband was ejected by the machine.
What she thought was a magic trick was just a deception.
"You convinced me."
Guinevere said after a moment of silence.
It is not easy to convince someone, but if you are a person who already has that idea, it will become very simple.
The most important thing is that Zhao Cheng completely prescribes the right medicine and follows the strategy, so it will naturally have miraculous effects.
To convince Guinevere, there are actually only two steps, one is to prove the authenticity of Deyu's name, and the second is to show his talents, or smart means.
Not force, but wisdom.
For thousands of years, there have been countless powerful bandits, but there are only a handful of monster thieves. Throughout the ages, people have always had a different kind of romance about using intelligence to defeat force.
Probably because this is the most likely place for the weak to rebel against the strong.
In ancient times, the way to gain strength was always controlled by the strong.
Of course, although Guinevere agreed to Zhao Cheng's invitation, if Zhao Cheng's subsequent performance was not good, she would run away if she should.
What brought them together was not an ancient agreement or a verbal promise, but a dream.
"Deyu, now you can talk about your great adventure."
Guinevere said.
"There is no rush to take risks for the time being. Before that, we still need to find two more partners."
Zhao Cheng's holographic projection waved his hand.
"One is responsible for modifying the machine and making useful props, and the other, who needs sufficient acting skills and flexibility, is responsible for setting up the scene."
"If I'm right, the little prop in front of you was made by you yourself. As for your acting skills and skills, you should be good at it, so why do you need to find someone else?!"
Guinevere asked her doubts, but she couldn't keep up with Zhao Cheng's thinking.
She had similar thoughts before, but those were all based on the fact that she was not good at something.
The more people there are in the organization, the higher the possibility of accidents.
"Of course, the protagonist only needs to appear at critical moments, and the rest can be left to the assistant."
Zhao Cheng said matter-of-factly.
"I have already found the candidates for the remaining two partners. I will convince them. Your help is also needed here..."
Zhao Cheng said that he needed her help, but she knew that this should be the other party's investigation of her.
Of course, the greater possibility is that the other party deliberately gives himself a chance to perform.
After all, the other party knew about such a long time ago, and without asking anything, they were sure that she was capable of cooperating with the other party. Obviously, they knew her very well.
…
That night, Guinevere couldn't sleep for a long time.
She felt as if the world had played a joke on her, or that what happened in the afternoon was simply a dream.
No matter how you look at it, the monster thieves who come to your door are closer to the fantasy plot in youth novels.
However, a real contact account on the phone told her that everything was not her imagination.
"Am I the protagonist in the legend?!"
She couldn't help but have such thoughts flashing through her mind, but she felt that the protagonist was too exaggerated.
Afterwards, she couldn't help but wonder whether there was an ancient family behind Tokuyu III, a huge intelligence force that spanned many countries.
Then I will use this to open the door to a new world.
Also, is the Tokuyu III she saw really like?!
It is said that Kaitou is very good at disguise and his face can change in many ways.
This night, she didn't know how she fell asleep.
Then, she also had a long dream, dreaming about Tokuyu III, and a girl who looked like a princess, in front of flowers and under the moon, holding a revolver, and was about to end the other's sinful life.
"???"
"!"
Guinevere woke up with a start.
She never expected that she would suddenly dream of such strange content.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems reasonable. For her, the most handsome person is naturally a Phantom Thief character. As for the princess, the main reason is that through the adaptation of various works over the past hundred years, no Phantom Thief can escape the princess.
If you don't save a dozen princesses in one level or along the way, you won't be considered a monster thief.
Therefore, after waking up, she didn't pay much attention to last night's dream. It wasn't until the evening that she received a message from Zhao Cheng and fell into deep thought.
That area is the famous Royal Academy in this country, and her task is to locate a person's whereabouts through the Internet and help modify the surveillance video.
That person is her future teammate.
As for her identity, it is none other than the fifth daughter of the contemporary king and the fifth-ranked princess.
She couldn't help but think of last night's dream.
The other phantom thieves all go out to save the princess, but you don't take the usual path and recruit the princess into your gang, you don't follow the routine at all.
What's more, she hadn't paid attention to this princess before, and it wasn't until this moment that she realized that her style of painting was wrong.
