Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

After a while, the fitting room.

Cassandra changed her clothes from inside to outside and walked out. You could see that her expression was a little twisted and her cheeks were slightly red.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve never been to a place like this before, so I’m not used to it, or if it’s just because I’m shy.

In sharp contrast, Dean, who was waiting at the door, pulled little Cassie up to the mirror standing next to him with a natural expression on his face, and kept looking at her up and down with scrutinizing eyes.

What was reflected in the mirror was a young and beautiful girl. Except for the dull expression on her face, which looked autistic, she was no different from other normal girls of the same age in the world.

At least it's no longer like before, either wearing rags all day long like a little beggar, or wearing all black like some late-night female snitch.

Cassandra is wearing a white slim-fitting shirt, a small blue jacket on the outside, and a pair of denim trousers. Although it is not a fashionable combination, it is this kind of everyday clothing that Cassandra wears. , will give people a feeling of light up.

"It's not bad. The style and size are just right. It's pretty, although it's not as good as mine."

Looking at Cassandra put on new clothes, Dean nodded with satisfaction and then came to the counter.

"Just pick these few items, including the sets over there and the underwear, and pack them all."

The direction Dean was pointing at were several sets of quite sexy long dresses, some with backs and some with off-shoulders, but there were no deep V ones. The sizes of these dresses were all for adult bodies, and they were obviously not for Cassandra. of.

These sets were actually bought for Dean himself, to be precise, they were bought for Kaito Kidd.

In the Phantom Thief's mission, it is inevitable that he will need to disguise himself as a woman. It would be fine if it was planned. But if some sudden situation forced him to disguise himself as a woman, he would have to prepare some clothes.

There's no way that every time Dean happens to meet a woman who is alone, he knocks her out and then puts on her clothes, right?

It's okay to be anxious once or twice, but it's not so good to do it frequently.

So Dean would disguise himself every once in a while and buy a batch of women's clothing in case of emergency.

After coming out of the clothing store, Dean took Cassandra to a house.

It's not the Saston Mansion, but an ordinary house located at the junction of the Diamond District and the Old City.

This is a property that Dean bought using a false identity a few years ago. It is equivalent to Kidd's safe house, although it is rarely used.

"It's not convenient for you to live there at the Saston Mansion for the time being, so you can stay here for the time being, Cassian."

Dean looked at Cassandra and said.

"..."

Cassandra looked at Dean in shock.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to let you live and eat for free. Since you agreed to follow me for a period of time, you are now my temporary assistant. You must not hold back in future operations."

Dean shook his finger.

"Why did you choose me to be your assistant?"

Cassandra suddenly raised her head and made gestures.

"Because I need an assistant I can trust."

Dean answered matter-of-factly.

"If you think about it, Batman has Robin and Batgirl, Superman has Supergirl, The Flash has Kid Flash, Aquaman has Aquaman and Aqualad, Wonder Woman has Wonder Girl, even Martian Manhunter has Martian Girl, Of course I need an assistant too.”

"That's not what I meant. What I want to ask is why me? Why do you trust me so much?"

"I can confirm whether you are lying to me, so I am willing to trust you, but what about you? Aren't you worried that I will reveal your information to others?"

"You will not."

Dean said with certainty.

"Because I also have evidence of your murder, you are also worried that I will expose your secret, aren't you? Even though you know that I will never do this."

"Why do I trust you so much? If you really need a reason, it is that we all hold our own secrets, and we all need to keep them secret. Instead of being suspicious of each other, it is better to cooperate and win-win. How about this reason?"

Dean said this in a very philistine way, showing a face that only valued profit.

"I know this is not what you mean."

Cassandra shook her head calmly.

"It doesn't matter whether you are telling the truth or not, it is an objective fact after all."

Dean chuckled.

"Think about it from another angle, so what if I don't trust you? You will always be able to see through my identity, even from a distance that I can't detect. If you really want to expose me, I have a way Stopping you? No."

No, you do.

Cassandra secretly thought in her heart, she didn’t know why, but she just sensed some extraordinary confidence from Dean, a confidence that was beyond her understanding, as if Dean was always confident no matter how big of a problem he encountered. There is a way to solve it smoothly.

Although Cassandra didn't know the source of that confidence, she could conclude that it was not mindless arrogance. Dean definitely had something to rely on.

The conversation suddenly stopped.

Dean's face was calm and composed, and without any explanation he pulled Cassandra into the house and closed the doors and windows.

Even with Cassandra by his side, Dean still did not restrain his cautious habits. He repeatedly checked the environment inside and outside the house before he felt relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Dean took Cassandra to the basement. The basement here did not have secret passages and dark rooms like the Thaston mansion, nor did it look like a warehouse where Kaid's commonly used equipment was stored.

Instead, there were rows of magic props, as well as some very strange targets and objects with no apparent purpose. The whole thing looked like a magic practice room.

"Kashan, I know you have a strong fighting ability, but in our line of work, it is meaningless to fight alone. We neither need to defeat the bad guys nor defeat the good guys. It is true that sometimes fighting is inevitable, but then It’s not our main scope of work.”

As soon as he entered the practice room, Dean's expression changed instantly, and he emphasized to Cassandra expressionlessly.

"So... you need to learn some skills other than fighting, such as magic, lock picking, pickpocketing, passwords, and disguise... With your talent, I believe you can learn the essence of them all in a few days."

Cassandra listened to Dean's words carefully.

She was so serious only on two occasions in her life, one when she was trained as a child by her father, David Cain, and the other when Barbara taught her to read.

"Let's start with the basics. Use a pin to pick the lock first. Don't leave any traces of picking the lock."
