Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

Chapter 166 You...are Kaito Kidd

the next day.

The early morning sunlight shines through the window and onto the face of the sleeping person, and a warmth comes from the heart.

Dean slowly opened his eyes and looked sleepily at the clock on the bedside table.

Seven thirty-two.

It was still early, nearly eighteen minutes before the alarm clock went off.

The reason why he didn't set it directly at eight o'clock was because he wanted to take a nap for ten minutes after the alarm clock went off.

This means that Dean was not woken up by the alarm clock.

But he didn't wake up naturally either.

jingle! jingle!

The constant ringing of the doorbell outside wakes Dean from his sleep, forcing him to get up at an awkward time.

Dean is not worried that his identity will be suspected again, causing Batman or GCPD to come to check the room.

Not because he was absolutely confident in his ability to hide his identity, but because if it was Batman's group, they would never ring the doorbell.

"Who came to me early in the morning? Is it Dick? Or another female classmate who wants to date me? It can't be Barbara, right?"

After Dean simply put on his clothes, he quickly walked to the door.

To be on the safe side, he took a look outside through the peephole first.

Then he saw an unexpected person.

I saw a petite girl who was still in the growing stage, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a heroic look on her eyebrows, standing in front of the door.

Her skin is a healthy and beautiful wheat color, her eyes are lively, her pupils are black, she has beautiful hair, and she has very standard Asian features.

This is... Cassandra Cain?

Dean opened the door and asked strangely: "Hey, what do you want from me? And how did you know my home is here? Barbara told you?"

Cassandra nodded lightly. She indeed found out Dean's address from Barbara.

She made a few gestures to Dean, meaning: "Can you let me come in and sit down? I want to ask you something."

Dean glanced at Cassandra, who saw nothing but purity in her eyes, unlike some people in the world whose eyes were already cloudy.

"Small problem, if you want to come in, come in, after all, the person who comes is a guest, right?"

Dean greeted Cassandra into the door with a relaxed face.

However, the moment Cassandra walked through the door and turned her back to Dean, Dean quickly and without leaving a trace glanced around the outside of the room.

No suspicious objects or people were found, so Dean closed the door with a normal face.

This does not mean that Dean really doubts Cassandra, but is based on instinctive caution.

Maybe in case someone followed Cassandra.

"Milk? Or Coke?"

In the living room, Dean asked Cassandra while opening the refrigerator full of various drinks.

Cassandra, who was sitting on the sofa, shook her head, indicating that she was not thirsty now.

"All right."

Dean didn't know how to deal with the mouthless girl, so he had to close the refrigerator again.

"So... what do you want to ask me?"

Dean sat on the sofa opposite Cassandra and went straight to the topic.

Then, Cassandra took out a newspaper with a close-up of Kaitou Kidd printed on the cover.

She pointed to the Phantom Thief Kidd in the newspaper, then pointed to Dean, and asked with a few gestures with a calm face.

"You...are Kaitou Kidd, right?"

Hearing this, Dean was stunned for a moment.

"ha?"

Cassandra looked at Dean and instantly read his body language.

Dean was shaking, the question just now caused him a big mood swing...

She thought to herself.

This made her more confident in her judgment.

Cassandra was there when Kaito Kidd stole the Bat-Light at Cavaliers Stadium earlier.

A few days ago, the Knight Stadium incident was very hot in Gotham. Even Cassandra, who didn't care about current affairs, learned about it through the TV news in Barbara's ward.

For some reason, she had the idea of ​​wanting to meet Phantom Thief Kid.

At that time, she didn't know what kind of character Kaitou Kidd was. She only knew that he was a thief who didn't know what he looked like.

So, Cassandra went to the Cavaliers Stadium to watch the whole process of Kidd's performance.

You don’t know this by looking at it, you’ll be shocked when you see it!

Kaito Kidd and Robin appeared at the same time, engaging in a verbal and behavioral confrontation.

As soon as Cassandra saw these two people, her terrifying innate talent of being able to read body language automatically kicked into gear.

This led her to discover a surprising fact.

Whether it's Kaitou Kidd or Batman's assistant Robin, they are all people she has met before!

At least in terms of body language instinct, Kaid Kid is identical to Dean Thaston, and Robin is exactly the same as Dick Grayson.

Although Cassandra couldn't see what the faces of these two people looked like, she had never seen two people with exactly the same body language since she was born.

Even if they are twins, their body language is completely different.

Therefore, Cassandra was sure that Kaitou Kidd was Dean. As long as it was someone she had seen once, there was absolutely no way she would admit it.

Unless that person's physical characteristics are completely different from those of humans on Earth, and he does not have human instinctive body language, or his body language is extremely chaotic, making it difficult for Cassandra to decipher the actual meaning.

Obviously, Dean and Dick are both earthlings, and they don't have the physical characteristics of aliens, and they are not crazy enough to do meaningless dancing all day long...

So as long as Cassandra has seen it, it is basically impossible for them to hide from her eyes with disguise.

The ability to read body language is so powerful, and Cassandra is not the only person in this world with this ability.

"Hiss—so that's it. I didn't expect Cassandra to have such terrifying abilities besides inhuman force."

Opposite, Dean thought in shock in his heart.

Just now, he quietly used the Eye of True Sight to read the basic information of Cassandra, and he has a little understanding of her abilities.

Since the Eye of True Sight does not belong to human instinctive body movements, Dean is not worried that Cassandra can see this.

"What if I say... I'm not Kaitou Kid?"

After pondering for a while, Dean looked at Cassandra and said solemnly, with a very serious expression on his face, as if he really wasn't Kaitou Kidd.

However, just after he finished speaking, Cassandra's eyes widened instantly, with disbelief written all over her face.

"He didn't lie."

By reading Dean's body language, Cassandra could see that Dean was serious when he said that he was not Kaitou Kidd, and he was not lying to her!

But how is this possible?

(Is there anyone who thinks that Kaito Kidd can fight and other skills are strange? But in fact, Kaito Kidd knows how to do swordsmanship and the level is very high. Note that this source is not from Conan's dream, but from the original "Magic Kaito" Orthodox episode, and there are actually quite a lot of people who know Kaito's identity, not counting the tricks, Terai Hongzi and Baima both know)
