Chapter 4: Give me your phone

In fact, when Lin Ye said that, not only did the girl's expression change, but so did the expression of another middle-aged man standing not far from him.

After the girl realized her phone was missing, she immediately glared at Lin Ye.

"When did you take my phone? How did you take it?"

"Hehe, I already said it's a Magician's trick, of course I made it disappear," Lin Ye said with a smile.

"Made it disappear? Where did you make it disappear to?" The girl still didn't seem to realize anything was wrong, her eyes filled with nothing but curiosity.

"Of course, I made it disappear to a place you'd never imagine, for example, onto that uncle's body."

As he spoke, Lin Ye pointed with a smile at the uncle not far away who had just stolen the girl's phone.

At his gesture, the uncle's face instantly showed a hint of panic.

"Young man, don't talk nonsense. How could her phone be with me?"

At this moment, the attention of the other people on the bus was also drawn to what was happening, and like the girl, their eyes were full of curiosity.

"Why is her phone with you? Of course, I made it appear there. If you don't believe me, I'll call her phone right now."

Saying that, Lin Ye took out his phone and turned to the girl, saying:

"Senior, would you mind telling me your phone number?"

Upon hearing this, the girl immediately nodded.

"No problem, but is this your trick to get my contact information? Never mind, I don't care."

"My phone number is 138..."

After the girl finished reciting her phone number, Lin Ye casually dialed it with his own phone.

At this moment, cold sweat was already pouring down the uncle's face.

He had just gotten his hands on it and had no time to turn off the phone.

The next second, a slightly mischievous phone ringtone came from the uncle's pocket.

There's a little bee, opening its mouth beebeebeebee...

Hearing this familiar sound, the girl's expression instantly changed.

And the uncle's face was extremely tense.

Just as he thought Lin Ye would expose him as a thief, Lin Ye suddenly spoke again:

"See? I told you I made your phone appear on him."

But the girl still didn't realize, her face filled with surprise and delight.

"So amazing! How did you do that?"

"Amazing, right? Then I'll show you again."

With that, he reached out to the uncle.

"Uncle, would you mind giving me her phone?"

Hearing this, the uncle nodded repeatedly.

While taking out the phone, he didn't forget to put on a look of emotion.

"Young man, your Magician's trick is truly amazing. I didn't even know when an extra phone appeared on me."

"Anyone who didn't know would think I stole it."

Soon, he handed the girl's phone to Lin Ye, but after taking the phone, Lin Ye did not return it directly to the girl. Instead, he shook it at her.

"Senior, make sure you don't blink, something spectacular is about to happen."

"Three, two, one, change!"

The next second, under the gaze of the girl and the other people in the bus, the girl's phone vanished without a trace from Lin Ye's hand, as if it had melted away.

Seeing this scene, everyone immediately gasped in surprise, and the girl's eyes were filled with even more admiration.

"Wow! You're so amazing! I didn't even see clearly, and my phone was gone!"

"Where did you make my phone disappear to?"

"Want to know?" Lin Ye said with a mysterious smile.

The girl nodded repeatedly.

"Then I'll call your phone again, and wherever it rings, that's where it is."

Saying that, Lin Ye once again used his own phone to dial the girl's phone number.

At this moment, the entire bus compartment fell silent.

The next second, the familiar ringtone sounded again.

There's a little bee, opening its mouth beebeebeebee...

Following the direction of the sound, everyone's gaze fell on the uncle from before.

Shock, confusion, and other emotions filled everyone's faces.

Only the uncle was on pins and needles, looking as if he had seen a ghost.

Immediately, he rummaged through his pockets, and soon he pulled out the girl's phone from his left jacket pocket.

The moment he pulled out the phone, the bus instantly erupted in enthusiastic applause and praise from the passengers.

"Amazing! This young man's Magician's trick is too incredible."

"Yeah, I didn't even see how he made the phone disappear just now."

"I can understand making it disappear, but how did he make the phone appear on that person?"

"Do you think the principles of his Magician's tricks are so easy for you to figure out?"

"It's so magical! I never thought I'd get to see a Magician's show just by taking the bus today."

.......

As the passengers praised him, the expression of admiration on the girl's face grew even stronger.

"Oh my goodness, this is too cool! You're really a Magician."

"Otherwise?" Lin Ye said with a smile. "I'm a professional."

"Alright, uncle, give me the phone back."

The uncle, who was completely bewildered, nodded subconsciously.

Lin Ye quickly took the phone from his hand and casually returned it to the girl.

"The Magician's trick is over. In the future, be careful not to be so careless, or you won't even know if your phone gets stolen."

"Oh, oh, okay, thank you, junior." The girl took the phone and opened her messaging app. "Let's exchange contact information, junior. I want to show off to my friends later."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye refused.

"No need, I have something else to do right now."

"What is it?" The girl was a little confused.

"Of course, it's to call the police, because there's a thief on this bus. I suggest everyone check their belongings, especially their phones, to see if anything is missing."

As soon as Lin Ye said this, everyone on the bus immediately changed their expressions, and at the same time, they didn't forget to check their personal belongings.

Soon, someone gasped in surprise.

"My phone is gone!"

"Mine's gone too."

"Where's my wallet? It was clearly there when I got on the bus."

"What's going on?"

......

Seeing everyone's reaction, Lin Ye was not surprised at all. The next second, he turned his gaze to the uncle who had just stolen the phones.

"Are you going to obediently return the items to others, or should I call the police and let the police officers search for the things you stole?"

His words instantly made everyone on the bus react, and after a struggle, the middle-aged uncle suddenly revealed a fierce expression.

"Alright, alright, I've fallen into your hands today!"

With that, he pulled out a pile of items from his body, and this scene undoubtedly confirmed his identity as a thief.

Immediately, the people on the bus erupted, all threatening to send him to the police station.

At the same time, a red light suddenly appeared ahead, and the bus stopped abruptly in the middle of the road. Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, the thief directly pressed the emergency exit button for the rear door.

The moment the bus door opened, he was about to rush out of the bus.

As he left, he didn't forget to turn back and glare fiercely at Lin Ye.

"Kid, you just wait, this isn't over!"

With that, he was about to run. Everyone wanted to stop him, but for a moment, they couldn't catch up.

Just as he was about to duck into the green belt beside the road, Lin Ye secretly activated Magician's Hand and pulled one of his legs, causing him to fall flat on his face.

Seeing this, a burly man on the bus immediately rushed over and firmly pinned him to the ground.

The other people on the bus also followed closely behind at this time.

Before long, the thief was beaten black and blue by the crowd in the chaos, until the police officers from the police station arrived, and they handed the thief over.

Lin Ye, as the one who exposed the thief's actions, also received sincere thanks from the passengers on the bus.

It was only then that the girl from the same school realized her phone had been stolen just now.

"Junior, you've really helped me out a lot today, senior. If my phone had been lost, it would have been a big problem."

"How about this, if you ever encounter any trouble in Kyoto Sea, just mention my name, Lu Keke, and it will definitely work. I have something to do today, so I'll be leaving now. If we meet at school, I'll treat you to a meal."

After the bus arrived at the stop, the girl with the pain bag quickly got off the bus, not forgetting to make a phone call gesture to Lin Ye as she exited.

After she left, Lin Ye rode two more stops forward, finally arriving at the address Wang Zimo had given him.
