Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 76: The closer you look, the less you see (please collect it! Please read it later)

On the other side, Gotham High School, the campus dance scene.

Rather than saying this is the scene of a school dance, it would be more appropriate to say that this is Dean Thaston's magic show.

Because at this time, almost half of the students had gathered on the lawn that was originally a resting area, but the formal activity venue seemed a little sparse.

On the lawn, countless students gathered around Dean in the center. The innermost circles were almost all filled with girls, and most of the boys stood on the outside.

It's hard to imagine how the girls managed to squeeze in.

This is the first time this has happened since Gotham High School started hosting dances.

In the center of the crowd, Dean took out a deck of playing cards and asked loudly.

"Now I need the cooperation of an audience member to perform the next magic trick. Is there any student who can volunteer?"

As soon as they heard Dean's words, the girls around them immediately became excited, raised their hands and shouted wildly: "Me! Me! Look at me!"

The one who shouted the loudest was Lucy, who was closest to Dean. She was deeply impressed by Dean's performance just now, and she wanted to experience it again.

"I'm sorry, Miss Lucy. Although I would be happy to work with you again, it is best to leave the opportunity to others now."

Dean smiled and shook his head at her.

He glanced around and found that everyone had their hands raised high, and he suddenly said distressed.

"Everyone is very enthusiastic. It seems like everyone wants to be my helper. It's really difficult to choose just one."

After thinking about it, Dean closed his eyes and said, "For the sake of fairness, I will just click on one."

Dean, with his eyes closed, began to spin in circles.

One lap, two laps, three laps...

After turning around for a few times, he suddenly stopped and stretched out his hand to point forward.

Then he opened his eyes and saw that the person he clicked was a girl with medium-long brown hair and a slender figure.

Coincidentally, Dean also knew this girl named Ava, who was his classmate and was once one of his suitors.

"It seems that God wants you to help me complete this magic trick. Ava, please come over."

Dean smiled and extended the invitation to Ava.

Ava's face was powdered, her eyes were shining with gold, and she looked very excited.

She trotted to Dean and asked expectantly: "Dean, what do you need me to do?"

Dean showed her the deck of playing cards in his hand and said, "I will start the remake later. I need you to see and remember one of the cards inside."

"Is... just like this?"

Ava said with some disappointment in her eyes. Before, Dean and Lucy borrowed roses, asked about their favorite colors, and finally held Dean's hat with her own hands. She also imagined that she could receive similar treatment.

Just imagine, that was the top hat that Dean had worn on his own!

If she could hold that hat, she swore she wouldn't wash her hands all night!

Unexpectedly, her task was as simple as memorizing a card.

Dean didn't know that the girl in front of him had such rich psychological activities. He held the playing cards in front of Ava with his left hand and placed his right hand on the top of the deck.

"Are you ready? I'm going to start flipping the cards now."

Although she was a little disappointed in her heart, Ava quickly got into the mood. She didn't want Dean to misunderstand her.

"Well, I'm ready."

Ava nodded, indicating that she was ready.

Dean used his right hand to pick up the upper half of the deck of playing cards, and then quickly turned them over.

Ava only vaguely saw a spade, and passed by without even seeing the number clearly.

"Isn't it a little too fast? It doesn't matter. Let's do it again."

Dean also seemed to realize that the speed of flipping cards just now was too fast, so he repeated the action just now, slowing down slightly.

Hua Hua Hua——

The deck of cards was quickly turned over.

This time Ava finally saw the card clearly, a ten of spades, and she remembered this card in her heart.

"Dean, do I need to call that card out?"

Ava asked.

"No, don't say it yet, especially don't let me know which card you saw."

Dean smiled and shook his head.

He shuffled the playing cards and then randomly picked out a Pandora flower cut.

Then the deck of playing cards was fanned out in front of Ava's eyes, each card was clearly visible, and there were no overlapping cards.

"Now look inside to see if there's the card you just saw."

Ava opened her eyes and looked carefully, and found that there were all the cards in it, but the ten of spades was missing.

But she was pretty sure she had just seen the ten of spades.

Ava shook her head in surprise and said, "I didn't see it."

"The reason you didn't see it is because you looked too close."

Dean said mysteriously, "What did I just say? When you look closer..."

"The less you'll see!"

Lucy next to her rushed to answer.

"well said."

Dean nodded, and then suddenly threw the playing cards in his hand into the sky.

The surrounding audience all looked up to the sky, and then they were deeply shocked by the scene they saw in front of them.

I saw the lights in the teaching building opposite with all the lights turned off suddenly turned on.

Not all lights are turned on at the same time, only a small number of classroom lights on each floor are lit.

And if you connect all the classrooms with lights on, you will see a huge "Ten of Spades".

The impact of this scene was so huge that everyone was stunned and opened their mouths from ear to ear.

The most shocked among them was naturally Ava, because only she knew which card she just saw.

"Now, Ava, you can tell me what that card is that you saw."

Dean spread his hands and motioned for Ava to tell her the final answer.

Unexpectedly, when he spread his hands, Ava rushed over and hugged Dean's waist.

"Ten of spades, what I see is the ten of spades!"

Ava shouted excitedly.

It's just that the girls around them are no longer thinking about poker.

"Shet! Ava, you stinky bitch, who allowed you to hug Dean!"

"Let him go! Let me do it!"

"What did you say? Dean is mine!"

"I don't care! If Ava can hold Dean, so can I!"

No one knew who was leading the attack, but all the girls around him rushed toward Dean, all of them fierce and fierce, like hungry wolves.

"Hey hey hey... don't come over here!"

At the same time, the teaching building.

Dick was sweating profusely and standing on the wall of the dozen or so floors. He had spent a lot of energy on making the switch on the light switches in each classroom in a hurry.

Looking down at Dean, who was overwhelmed by countless girls, Dick thought in an extremely unbalanced mind: "Damn it! How could I remember that I was the one who wanted to use magic to pick up girls in the first place!"

"Why is it now Dean's personal show? I want to help him complete the magic trick instead?"
