[Comprehensive] Phantom Thief · Phantom Thief

"Yo! Freya. Long time no see."

Smilingly, she greeted the beautiful goddess who hadn't had time to put away the panic and astonishment on her face, but the blond young man actually... didn't even look at her.

Freya, who was standing across from the two of them at a short distance, could see clearly that the handsome male god she had been thinking about, all her attention was on the black-haired human boy in his arms. Even...not even thinking of giving him a sideways glance...

An unspeakable sense of loss and exhaustion suddenly surged in Freya's heart.

She felt that this time, she might be really disheartened.

Originally in the God Realm, Loki's eyes never stayed on her. At that time, Freya could still use Loki. Originally, he had no interest in the goddess. Even with his first and only wife, Amberda The combination between them is also due to the needs of racial reproduction rather than from their own wishes and emotions.

"Loki is a male god who cannot be easily moved..."

——Freya still clearly remembers that this was what she liked the most about Loki back then.

As the goddess of love and beauty, Freya never thought that there would be a male god in the world that she could not capture.

Thinking about it now, perhaps it was precisely because of the alienation and indifference that Loki showed in front of her that made her madly infatuated with this male god like a demon?

And in all these years of her persistent pursuit of Loki, how much of it is genuine liking and love, and how much of it is actually out of some kind of embarrassment and unwillingness?

I am afraid that by now, even Freya herself cannot give a convincing answer...

Taking a long breath, the blond goddess slowly closed her eyes——

She thought she should have realized it earlier.

Perhaps eight years ago, when she first saw such genuine tenderness and concern in Loki's eyes, she had already lost, and... lost so thoroughly.

What if at that time, he was the one who found Loki first and expressed his heart to him?Then, when Loki was at his most hesitant, helpless, fragile and confused, the person who successfully sneaked into his heart...

Could it be her, Freya?

——Freya knew that she no longer had the chance to seek this answer.

The person Loki cares most about is Kaito Kuroba, who is of no help to him...an ordinary human boy.

This is the final result, and it has never... had nothing to do with Freya's wishes.

Opening her eyes, she quietly looked at the two people who were hugging each other intimately under the moonlight, looking so harmonious and so untouchable by others, Freya blinked, covering the last ray of light in her eyes...

"Loki, you are so cold to others~"

The tone of her mouth was still coquettish and sweet, but from Loki's instant gaze, Freya knew that this keen-minded male god had obviously noticed a change in his attitude.

only……

If Loki didn't intend to tell the truth, why did Freya herself take the initiative to clarify something?Even if she has convinced herself, but...

Why would she not do it if she could cause trouble for that guy Kuroba Kaito?

"Well~" Stretching out her fingers around the slightly curly long golden hair on her chest, the goddess of beauty raised the corners of her lips, smiling alluringly and enchantingly: "Although I really want to spend a beautiful night with Loki, but... Forget it today. Loki, we... see you next time."

After speaking, without waiting for Loki and Kaito to react, the blond goddess turned around and strode away neatly.

And it wasn't until her back completely disappeared into the dark night that Kaito turned his head and looked at the indifferent Loki with a half-smile: "I didn't expect... After so many years, she seems to have finally started You have a long brain. Does this count as your credit?"

——Obviously, the girl Freya's self-conceited performance of "tight water" has not been able to hide from Kaito at all.

Loki was not surprised by this, so he just bowed his head slightly when he heard the words, and looked at the sly boy in his arms with a smile: "Is Kaito praising me or hurting me? You know, in our Scandinavian In the Via pantheon, types like Freya and Frey are actually considered 'normal'."

And like him, Odin, and... Balder, are actually the "abnormalities" in the god system.

Kaito didn't pay attention to Loki's expression of being a little lonely for a moment - anyway, he was too used to this.In the past three years, when thinking of Odin, a brother with a different surname, Loki would show a similar expression from time to time. Kaito said that he felt distressed, and gradually got used to it.

So compared to Loki's habitual loss, Kaito is more interested in the truth revealed in Loki's words just now——

Compared with the well-known Greek or Roman mythology, the gods in Norse mythology...

Thinking about it, it seems really... stupid.

Thinking back to the main gods of the Scandinavian pantheon that he had contact with, Kaito thought, he had to admit that whether it was the two Frefreya brothers and sisters, or Kai who first appeared as a sinister assassin Mudar, after having enough contacts in the later stage, it will be proved that he is actually a foolish bastard, not to mention the off-line justice partner Thor...

"It seems that apart from the three goddesses of fate, the other gods are really played around by you and the two brothers Odin."

Compared with the orthodox Norse mythology in the world, I have heard many real gods and secrets (?) Kaito from Loki, and he naturally understands some truths much more thoroughly than outsiders.

After teasing someone lightly, Kaito raised his eyebrows, and stretched out his hand to pull Loki's arm still around his waist: "Okay, Freya is gone, who are you going to play for?"

Loki was slightly stunned for a moment.

Because at the moment when his arm left the boy's waist in his arms, he really... didn't want to let go at all.

In the future, he reflexively wanted to say, "I'm not acting", but the missing memory made it impossible for the blond evil god to open his mouth and confess his unsure mind.

So I can only perfectly restrain all the emotions that I don't want to be seen through by the boy in front of me...

"Ah, Kaito, you are so fierce! It won't matter if you give me more hugs~" Almost in the blink of an eye, Loki regained his composure, pursing his lips, following the footsteps of the boy who was about to leave, " Is it going well tonight? What trouble did that young detective named Baima cause you? Would you like to go to my place before you go home? The familiars have specially prepared delicious black tea and snacks for you~ and more... ..."

The chattering (?) voice of the blond beautiful young man disappeared all the way with the disappearance of the two figures, and soon he could no longer hear it clearly, leaving only the bright and still moonlight shining on the place where the two stayed before, as if ...witnessing some unobservable changes with the naked eye...

——Phantom Thieves Alliance——

[1412 enters the chat room]

1412: Good evening.

Listen to my mother's words: Ah~ Good evening, Brother Kidd.

Black Wing Daisuki: ...good evening.

Black Wing Daisuki: Wait, what is this strange nickname DARK, please change it for me!

Black Wing Daisuki: It doesn't matter, I think it's fine

Black Wing Daisuki: ... bastard ==＋

Black Wing Daisuki: The lack of strict family education makes everyone laugh.

Basteto No. [-]: What are you doing upstairs...Sense or a duo?

Basteto Three: ...Huh? !

1412: Ah!By the way, almost forgot!

Basteto No. [-]: I'm too lazy to complain, okay? ==

1412: Isn't this the first group chat where everyone is so happy.

Basteto Three: ...well, let's get down to business.After all, it was the first group activity after the establishment of the alliance.

Listen to my mother: Huh?Is it a group activity?Why no one notified me?

1412: Your school holidays and everyone's free time are staggered.

Listen to mother's words: [to fingers] I can ask for leave.

1412: Be good, skipping classes is not a good boy.

Black Wing Daisuki: Even if there is a legitimate reason.

Basteto No. [-]: Yes, the style of our alliance is absolutely decent, and we can't teach bad children!

Listen to mom:

1412: Alright Xiaoqian (it’s inconvenient to call her real name, so she’s nicknamed “Xiaoqian”, taken from “Man with Thousand Faces”), don’t act like a spoiled child, senior and third sister, let’s get on with business.

Basteto No. [-]: Wait who is your third sister!

1412: Don't worry about such small things.Is the eldest sister and the second sister here?Let’s listen together if you’re here, this time it’s a big deal~ Basteto No. [-]: This tone doesn’t sound like a phantom thief.

1412: Is it appropriate? Good evening, big sister~

Basteto One: [Smiling face] Good evening.Tell me, what is the big deal.

1412: OK.In fact, I think everyone has heard about this matter, about the Hestier Goddess, which will circle the whole of Japan starting next week.

Listen to my mother's words: Huh?Is it the Meizhishanmae... Cough, the No. [-] luxury cruise ship in Japan invested and built by the Meizhishan family?I did hear that the maiden voyage ceremony will be next weekend, and there will be super-large celebrity banquets and public parties on board...

1412: What Xiaoqian said is right, it is it~ But the maiden voyage ceremony, luxury cruise public party, etc., have little to do with us.I've received word that there will be several art exhibits on the ship as well.Among them... there are a few that I think everyone in our alliance will be interested in separately.

Black Wing Daisuki: Oh?What are you talking about?

1412: Good.There is a green diamond called Goddess Heart that I like more, there is a famous painting that my eldest sister, second sister and third sister may be interested in, and there is a magical work of art called Ashes...

Black Wing Daisuki: Ashes...

Basteto One: What's the name of that painting?

1412: "My Beloved Daughters"

Basteto Three: ! ! ! !

1412: How?Do you want to cooperate?

Black Wing Daisuki: Well, we will.

Basteto One: So do we.

Listen to my mother: I want it too.

1412: Then it's settled.For details, we will contact you before we take action. The security force on the ship is not yet clear. Let's exchange information after each investigation.

Black Wing Daisuki: Got it.

Basteto III: OK.

Listen to Mom: Then it's settled.

1412: Well, see you next Wednesday night.

[1412 exit chat room]

【Listen to my mother and exit the chat room】

[Black Wing Daisuki exits the chat room]

[Bastetto one to three (hey! Is it really okay to be so brief!) exit the chat room]...

"It's all agreed?"

As soon as Kaito turned off the computer, a hand reached out from beside him, offering a cup of just-hot warm milk.

Kaito was not hypocritical, took the cup and drank the whole cup, and then Loki reached out and wiped the milk stains from the corners of his lips with a tissue. After that hand was withdrawn from his lips, he replied aloud: "Well, everyone agrees to cooperate. After all, this time is at sea. Although the "sailing around the whole of Japan" in the plan actually refers to just sailing from Tokyo to Okinawa and back. The entire voyage is estimated to not exceed three days, but because For some reason, this cruise ship may stay on the high seas for a while, so..."

The members of the alliance act together, and it is good to have a support for each other.When the time comes to successfully transfer the target, it will save a lot of trouble.

"Will you go with me then?" Kaito turned his head and looked at a certain blonde detective who had been staying at his house for the past few days, "Don't tell me that you can't get a boat ticket with your ability?"

"Doubt me?" The blond young man raised his eyebrows, and there was a faint smile in his deep green eyes: "Don't worry, even if you really can't get it, as long as Kaito asks, let alone a cruise ship on the sea, it is the seabed." ...and I will accompany you there."

Kaito couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was actually...afraid of water, so he couldn't help but hesitate a little: "Loki..."

Kaito wants to say, otherwise you should not go this time, although the voyage will not be very long, but most of the time on the ship, you can't even see the coastline, if Rocky's fear If water sickness occurs...

The trip hadn't started yet, and Kaito was already too worried.

"It's okay, it's just water." Seeing Kaito's worry, Loki got up and walked slowly in front of him step by step.

Possessed, he raised his hand to gently hold the boy's cheek in front of him, and Loki stared intently into those pure blue eyes that were so heart-pounding: "Trust me, everything will be fine. Huh?"

"...Okay." Facing Loki's persistent gaze, Kaito couldn't say no to him no matter what, so he could only nod in agreement.

After that, the two looked at each other and smiled tacitly, but neither of them noticed——

Ever since Freya's appearance that time, there was...something different between them after all.

... No, or perhaps it should be said, it is "returning to the original state".

The night outside the window was getting darker and darker, and in the depths of the kingdom of death that the two of them didn't know, the goddess with short blonde hair who had kept her eyes tightly closed suddenly opened her eyes...

——The wheel of fortune is about to... get back on track again.

The author has something to say:

By the way, among the various code names, 1412 is Kaito, because Kaitou Kidd’s international criminal file number is this; Black Wing Daisuki is DARK and Daisuki, the front Black Wing is DARK as the name of the artwork, and the source of the latter sentence From Vizi’s slip of the tongue; listening to her mother’s words, it’s easy to guess, she is the poor Xiaoling who was enslaved by the two mothers at home; Basteto [-] to [-] are the three sisters of Maoyan’s family, taken from Egyptian mythology Goddess Bastetto with the head of a cat and a human body...above.
