Thief’s Victory
The phantom thief smiled leisurely.
Clearly, the current situation is that he is in a corner.
As if even this was a scenario to improve the perfection of the play.
“Great. I didn’t know you could figure it out so quickly.”
At least there was sincere admiration in those words.
However, it was impossible for the girl who heard the praise to be happy with it. Rather, Sherlock frowned slightly, revealing his displeasure.
“I wore glasses today. It suits him pretty well, though.”
It’s a pity that I can’t see your pretty face properly.
It’s like a light joke.
Even in this situation, the phantom thief seemed too easygoing.
“Phantom Thief Raven. Get out of there right now.”
Gadget pulls out a gun and aims at it.
As the muzzle turned towards him, Raven raised both hands and made a gesture of surrender.
“Okay, can you put that gun down? It’s pretty scary.”
“It is the last warning. Come down.”
“yes. Yes. Let’s go to headquarters. Scary detective sister.”
Raven lightly jumps off the statue’s hand and lands on the ground.
Surprisingly, Gadget did not loosen his vigilance, even as he quietly followed the warning.
“by the way. There’s one thing I’m really curious about.”
Still raising his hands, Raven slowly walked towards the two women.
“stop!”
“I said Sherlock. What do you mean you observed my tricks?”
He doesn’t know that Sherlock is a wizard.
Gadget had a gut feeling that he shouldn’t give that information to the phantom thief.
So she intercepted the answer before Sherlock opened her mouth.
“Your deception is fully read in her reasoning. That’s all.”
“Hmm···.”
“why. Are you upset?”
Raven shrugged.
“Well. Maybe it is? I prepared pretty hard.”
“okay. I’m the one who caught you, so feel free to your heart’s content. In prison.”
The talk is getting pretty long.
Naturally, in fact, she was deliberately blending in with Raven’s conversation.
The moment he saw Raven on top of the statue, the gadget immediately signaled a request for assistance.
After a while, the entire museum will be completely blocked so that not a single mouse can escape.
It was much safer to match the conversation with the phantom thief to create a variable.
“Raven.”
It was then that Sherlock, who had never opened his mouth, spoke up for the first time.
‘This is not good…’
There was no time to explain this operation to the girl.
In other words, Sherlock doesn’t know that he can perfectly capture the phantom thief with a little patience.
“Do you have anything to say? If it’s a confession, it’s too sudden. We need time to get to know each other.”
Fortunately, Raven agreed to the conversation.
Rather, he threw in a joke and wasted time.
good night. If only I could last a little longer like this.
“Why are you stealing?”
“Well···. That’s a pretty unexpected question.”
Sherlock didn’t care if there was a gadget right next to him, and talked as if he were alone.
“You made fun of the British police and became the most popular person.”
“It’s a burden to take so many planes.”
“With that kind of ability. Why are you a thief?”
By then, I could roughly guess the meaning of what the girl was trying to say.
Raven was still only playing around with it.
“If I stop stealing and repent, will you forgive me?”
“no. You have already done something wrong, so you should pay for it.”
“Then you will have to keep stealing and living.”
Sherlock furrowed his brows as he was about to end the conversation in a subtle way.
“Answer my question. Why are you a thief?”
At the girl’s persistent question, Raven also erased her playful attitude.
Blue eyes staring into the detective’s green eyes with a hard expressionless expression.
Raven pressed down her hat and asked in a low voice.
“Otherwise, the person you love will die.”
“·················ogue.”
“What do you think. Do you think I am bad?”
No answer came back.
Sherlock’s expression on his face was a mixture of mixed emotions.
In the end, the Gadget I couldn’t see stared at the phantom thief and talked.
“No matter how much you love someone, harm to others is unforgivable.”
“It might be. But not everyone thinks the same.”
It’s like looking through your eyes and piercing your inner heart.
The blue shining sapphire looked at the emerald that fluttered wildly.
“I want to hear your thoughts.”

Momentary silence. Sherlock took a small breath and finally opened his mouth to answer.
“I don’t know···.”
“okay. is it.”
Raven did not specifically point out that, even though he avoided answering without giving a definite answer.
Rather, he just nodded his head in agreement and nodded in agreement.
“For now, that is enough. But one day you will have to make a choice.”
“you···.”
“It’s about time. As I said before, it was a stage that I prepared quite hard for, but it’s a bit flawed because I figured it out too easily.”
Gadgett hurriedly pointed out his gun to warn him as he was about to end the conversation abruptly.
“stop! If you move even a little, I will shoot you right away!”
“Still, if it were you, I thought it would be the case, so I prepared myself.”
bang!!
“Soundbite.”
A phantom thief who avoids the blank bullet that is the first shot.
Then, something he had prepared for that was triggered.
“what···! A picture!”
The picture that had been hanging on the wall suddenly appeared on its own and began to move in the air.
‘But why doesn’t the sensor sound?!’
Absolutely incomprehensible situation.
The magic sensor inside the museum did not sound at all, even though it was a scenery that could not be explained without magic.

Maybe they found a way to completely destroy the sensor?
If that were true, it was safe to say that there was virtually no way to stop the phantom thief, a wizard.
The bizarre spectacle did not end there.
The painting that floated into the air soon began to fly away at high speed.
The target at the end of the flight orbit is, of course, Raven the Phantom Thief.
The sensor still didn’t ring.
Without stopping in the middle, the painting fell into Raven’s arms as if being embraced by its owner.
Seeing Gadget’s bewildered expression, the phantom thief grinned like a prankster.
“I’m sorry about this. I didn’t mean to steal, but the painting, please take me.”
It was difficult to even call it magic anymore.
It was like ‘magic’ to captivate those who see it.
“·················ogue.”
This time, perhaps even the world’s Sherlock couldn’t see the trick at all, he just watched the scene with a surprised look.
Suddenly, Raven, who had a hook on the other side of the window, waved his hand and said goodbye.
“I think today is my victory. Let’s be a little more energetic.”
“👌👌👌 Stop right now!!”
“Oh, and I forgot something.”
Shruuk.
The line connecting the hook and the phantom thief automatically shortened and he moved away toward the window.
At the last moment, he smiled mischievously and said to Sherlock, who had been idly by.
“They say that someone you love dies. In fact, it’s a lie.”
“···to?”
Clink!
Before the girl could accept her words, the phantom thief broke the window and escaped.
In the end, they could not stop Raven’s crime this time as well.
***
I returned home and let out a sigh I had been holding back.
“It was really dangerous…”
[Why are you doing something you didn’t do?]
In fact, as the Goddess pointed out, it is true that I was more excited than usual today.
But there are some pretty reasonable reasons for it.
“You have to mix things up to find out who Sherlock is.”
The woman I saw today appeared wearing glasses that I had never seen before. It was actually difficult to identify a bare face thanks to the fairly high frequency. In the end, we had no choice but to obtain more information through conversation.
Of course, the more you do, the easier it will be for the other person to guess who I am.
That’s why I deliberately acted as a phantom thief who is smirk and reveals women differently from my usual personality.
Thanks to this, a pretty dangerous situation was created, but thanks to the double trick design, he managed to escape safely and even steal the painting.
“Anyway, it’s great. I didn’t know you’d get it right away.”
[Hmm. It certainly is.]
I don’t know if it’s simply because I’m good at reasoning, or if there’s something else.
It was also a rival of fate that I recognized.
“Still, you didn’t notice the last trick, did you?”
[Probably so. To be honest, how would you figure that out?]
I was proud of God’s answer for nothing.
It is worthwhile to wrap my hair up and ponder for a few days.
In fact, the first trick, Operation Mask, was a method I thought lightly.
The trick I designed after thinking about it for several days is the second device that is activated afterward.
It was a so-called sloppy operation.
It’s actually not difficult to draw a picture using magic.
What’s important is how you didn’t get caught by the magic sensor in the process.
The correct answer is to tie the paintings and objects outside the museum with a thread that is so thin that it is invisible to the naked eye.
After doing so, if I do not activate the magic and set it to activate automatically according to the conditions, the magic will not be applied to the sensor inside the museum.
The trigger condition is sound.
In other words, it was thanks to the blank bullets fired by the female detective.
“Fufu. This is the trick of the phantom thief.”
What is Sherlock doing now?
Perhaps they are cursing me, grinding their teeth in anger.
But when I thought of changing Sherlock into Sharon, I couldn’t draw such a picture.
“Hmm···.”
[Why?]
“What do you think, Goddess? Is Sherlock really Sharon?”
Goddess answered my question.
