Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief

police interview

“Raven? That thief?”

Rachel’s reaction was unfavorable to anyone looking at it.

Actually, that was a normal reaction. Even if Raven becomes famous and people like it, there are bound to be more people who hate it as long as the root is a thief.

In that sense, Sharon’s reaction just didn’t make any sense.

The problem is that our team’s captain, Julia, also has a pretty favorable attitude toward Raven.

“Well···. It might be surprisingly good.”

“What? I’m serious? He’s better than Merlin?”

“You told me before. Merlin is so popular and obvious that there’s a lot of overlap. On the other hand, Phantom Thief Raven is the hottest potato in recent times, and it’s very fresh.”

The evidence itself sounds pretty plausible, though. It seems that Rachel couldn’t understand it easily either.

“It’s strange. After all, as you said, Raven is also a hot potato, so doesn’t that mean that it can overlap with another joe?”

“There are a lot of people who think like you, so it will be difficult to try.”

“What does it mean to think like me?”

A tense nerve war broke out that I had never expected. I didn’t know that Julia would come out so stubbornly without giving up easily.

“···okay. I’ll admit it frankly. The gaze towards the phantom thief Raven is not good. If you choose such a sensitive topic for nothing, you could be ruined.”

“You want to do it even though you know it? Julia, are you a phantom thief follower?”

thief follower.

It is an expression that is constantly used in the media such as newspapers and radio.

Simply put, the forces that support and praise the criminal acts of Raven the thief.

Naturally, the state could not accept it well, so even the official media openly undermined followers and publicly slandered them.

“It’s not like that. just···.”

Julia hesitated and blurted out the end of her words.

I know why she does. It’s no wonder that Raven has given Raven a personal favor that others can’t understand. But it would be strange to talk about such things like pride.

“Rather the opposite.”

At that moment, Sharon, who was silently observing the situation, opened her mouth.

Rachel frowned and turned her head.

“What? Opposite?”

“I insisted on Raven as the topic of the presentation because it was to criticize, not to follow.”

It was the longest breathing sentence that ever came out of Sharon’s mouth.

Let’s move on to the fact that the object of criticism is right next to it.

“Raven’s actions were wrong. So you have to tell a lot of people.”

“uh···. Were you that type?”

Rachel’s dazed reaction.

To be honest, I agree with her.

He kept his mouth shut and quiet, so I thought he had a chic personality in everything, but he had a much more sense of justice than I thought.

In any case, Sharon’s intervention completely changed the mood.

First of all, Rachel didn’t seem to have any intention of objecting any further. On the other hand, Julia had a lot of things she wanted to say.

“Sharon. Please explain in detail how you want to criticize.”

“I don’t put my personal feelings into the presentation itself. I’m just presenting the facts as objectively as possible.”

In other words, the judgment is left to the listeners.

Rachel complained with a displeased expression.

“Why are you bothering me? As the captain said earlier, it’s much more convenient to just avoid sensitive issues and go to another wizard roughly.”

It’s a very ambiguous situation.

It was hard to see Rachel as uncooperative with the group assignment. I am merely presenting my opinion with reasonable grounds. In fact, it is best to avoid sensitive topics whenever possible.

“I agree. As Sharon said, as long as we are only presenting as objective information as possible, I don’t think there’s a big problem.”

Surprisingly, Julia agreed.

When I heard that Sharon’s criticism was the purpose, I thought that she would oppose it.

“Then, up until now, I am against the two in favor.”

“Hey chubby. Please tell me something.”

“Cro. what do you think about it?”

All three women’s eyes turned to me.

It was very burdensome.

[If you are a phantom thief, you must endure the gaze of a harem.]

‘It’s noisy. It gets in the way of thinking.’

[It’s too much… Sigh.]

I left the Goddess who pretended to cry and thought deeply.

If it’s safe to go, of course it’s better to go against it.

It’s a big deal if you get involved with the phantom thief Raven, and then your identity is revealed by mistake.

There was only one thing I was concerned about.

Could this announcement be used as an opportunity to confirm?

In the end, the answer I came up with after Django’s deliberation was…

“I agree too.”

So our group’s presentation topic was decided on ‘Phantom Thief Raven’.

***

The flower of the group assignment.

It’s just role sharing.

By the way, the flower mentioned here is the corpse flower.

In any case, it was not an option, but a necessary process, as the work could be done efficiently only through proper division of roles and the probability of an unfair victim would also decrease.

First of all, Yulia decided to make the announcement.

In fact, it was the easiest role to make. Because the other three had too many flaws to take on the heavy responsibility of presenting together.

And Sharon was in charge of writing the report and presentation.

Although it is not revealed on the surface, it is the most important core role in the group assignment.

As she said, it should be an objective presentation that is not biased toward one side.

In that sense, Rachel and Julia, of course, also had a very clear subjectivity towards the phantom thief Raven, so it was inappropriate.

The remaining two were assigned data collection roles.

There was no particular reason, that was all that was left.

“Ehh. Why do I have to go around with a bum like you?”

hey. that’s what i want to say

In the name of data collection, I had to stick with her even after class was over.

“hey. you should like It’s just the two of you on a date with a pretty girl like me.”

“·················ogue.”

“Mr. Lee! Aren’t you answering!?”

“It was just a bruise.”

What do you do when you have a pretty face?

Such a violent woman was never to my liking.

“But why is the police station so far away? plaguy.”

Yes. Now we are heading to the police station.

Of course, I wasn’t going to turn myself in, but it was to collect data for the group assignments.

When I think about it, it’s really absurd.

I’m a criminal and I’m going to go to the police directly and ask for the criminal’s information.

What would you think if someone else saw this situation?

[I will praise you for having the spirit of a phantom thief.]

‘Goddess is not human.’

[You’re right, but the wording is a bit like that. I feel like I’m going to get hurt somehow.]

Still, you won’t be caught. In the first place, the only person I encountered in the police was the cool older sister I met in the sewer.

Because that older sister could only see my back and couldn’t check my face by breaking the lights.

“Five. You have finally arrived.”

The building is quite large for a local police box.

It’s only natural that the Academy is located in the capital of Britannia.

Upon entering, the police asked the purpose of our visit.

We showed our academy student ID and briefly explained the situation.

“interview? Hmm···. Please wait a minute.”

The policeman gets up from his seat and heads for somewhere.

As soon as Rachel and I were left alone, we started talking.

“what. That annoying face.”

“Looks annoying. This is probably not the first time I have been asked for an interview like this.”

How many reporters have suggested an interview about Raven, the hottest phantom thief lately?

It seemed like 99% chance that maybe we would have just sent it back if we were ordinary students.

“Did you see the expression on your face change when you show your student ID?”

“That’s because it’s an academy student ID.”

It is difficult to explain in one word, but the status of the academy was quite high.

Whether that’s in a good or bad sense.

In fact, longing was not the only thing ordinary people looked at the wizard.

Fear and reluctance towards unfamiliar and mysterious beings. The academy also inherited such negative views.

The policeman returned to his seat and answered in a blunt tone.

“I think it can be done if it is short. Come this way.”

“thank you.”

We were guided into a room inside the police station.

A woman was sitting and waiting for us in a room that looked like a small office.

[That woman.]

As soon as I saw what the Goddess said, I recognized it.

This is the scary detective I met in the sewer last time.

‘It looks more beautiful in bright light.’

A mature woman with short black hair and teardrops.

Except for a slightly stiff impression, she was quite beautiful.

[Is that what you were aiming for?]

‘Because don’t say anything strange.’

I’m not that light guy.

“You are the academy students who asked for an interview.”

“yes. hello.”

“Sit down. You don’t want to be bothered by procrastination either. I also want to finish quickly and rest.”

He seems to have a cool and rough personality, just like he looks.

As I sat down and looked around, I found something I couldn’t pass up.

As I stared at it, she explained, maybe she noticed the gaze.

“Oh, it’s alligator skin.”

“Wow···.”

Oh my gosh. You got that monster?
