Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 171 Finding Another Way (Two in One)

There was more than one person entering the bathroom!
There is no distinction between large and small urinals in this toilet. There are a total of two rows of eight cubicles, which can meet the excretion needs of 16 people at the same time.

However, what Maggison didn't expect was that sixteen people really came in!
They acted quickly, as if they had already assigned their positions, they were there almost at the same time, and solved their personal problems one after another.

Even if some people are fast and some are slow, those who finish the solution in advance will not leave directly, but wait for others to join.

The movements are uniform, obviously well-trained.

What a sense of teamwork!
Maggison was taken aback for a while.

I don't know how to start.

"Is this black masked gang likely to have that serious illness?"

Think about it carefully, in case any man suffers from constipation or something, and stays for a few 10 minutes, do other people have to accompany him?

McKesson simply couldn't complain.

Maybe this time is an exception!
McKesson thought so.

He waited patiently. Fortunately, there were no constipation patients among this group of people.

They backed out in less than 5 minutes.

"Going back to Gotham this time really opened my eyes."

The corner of Maggison's mouth twitched, and he continued to crawl in the ventilation duct.

About half an hour later, the second group of people finally arrived.

However, this group of people turned out to be sixteen people!

McKesson began to feel that something was wrong. Once was a coincidence, but twice could only be inevitable.

It seems that the black mask has taken the safety here to a heinous level, and even the private things like going to the toilet have to be strictly arranged.

What happened next confirmed McKesson's thinking.

Every half an hour or so, there will be a wave of people breaking away from the large patrol team and entering the bathroom to solve the problem.

Not too many people, just enough to fill the restroom.

If the number of people who need to solve the problem exceeds 16 people, let 16 people go in first, and then go in with [-] people after they come out.

If the remaining number is less than 16 people, then send people who can't use the toilet to make up the number.

In short, the people who go in must be just right, and the people who come out must be just right.

"I have long heard that Roman Sinsos is a perverted perfectionist. I never thought he would be so mad."

Maggison's brain was spinning sharply, and he couldn't think of how to knock out one of them silently without disturbing the others when the toilet was full of people.

If the baffle of the compartment can be higher, it is not impossible.

But the height of the baffle is only 1.6 meters. If you don't sit down, your whole head will be exposed.

If you grow tall, your upper body is clearly visible.

How does this allow McKesson to infiltrate secretly?

As long as he got down from the ventilation duct, it was hard not to notice the movement.

Could it be possible to knock down everyone below...

McKesson was lost in thought.

Suddenly, Maggison's ears moved.

"I don't know when the elevator will be repaired."

"Who knows, I've been stuck between the fourth and fifth floors since yesterday, and I can't get up or down. I've already mentioned this to those idiots in the city hall. Why hasn't anyone come to fix it yet?"

"Yeah, if I have to walk up and down the stairs every day in the future, I will go crazy sooner or later."

"I just hope that the moths in the city hall don't kill the elevator repairman when they are playing with their lives."

"Speaking of which, why do we have to stay in this broken building? Every day's food is canned luncheon meat, except for canned luncheon meat. I'm going to throw up!"

"Ha, did you serve as a soldier during World War II? It would be nice to have something to eat like this..."

In the bathroom, the two thugs whispered to each other.

Of the 16 people in this wave, only fourteen were really needed, and the two of them came in to make up the number.

Standing there and waiting for my partner to squirt, it's boring to death.

So they began to chat quietly.

However, the topics mentioned by these two people made Maggison, who has ears behind the wall, find a perfect breakthrough...

On the other side, the Giordano Botanical Garden.

After hearing Barbara's plan, Pamela felt that it was very feasible.

The two women looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

Both saw the hope of victory in each other's eyes.

"No one can survive this move!"

Pamela stepped forward, stood in front of Barbara, and then pressed her palms together tightly, shouting loudly.

Immediately, in the solemn expression of the death knell, the earth began to shake, and the violent vibration was transmitted from the ground to the building, just like an earthquake.

Judging from the state of Poison Ivy, it takes a lot of energy to use this ability.

"And that weird pose..."

Deathstroke instinctively sensed the danger, and quickly judged that the method Pamela was about to use required a certain amount of preparation time.

Only a fool would stand still and wait for the opponent to finish his ultimate move.

Deathstroke is no fool, so he rushed out from behind the wall of fire as soon as the shaking started.

"Shu!" "Shu!" "Shu!"

First, three throwing knives were thrown at Pamela, this time the speed of the flying knives was a bit faster than the one he threw before.

After throwing out the throwing knife, Death Knell pulled out the second samurai sword behind his back.

With two knives in hand, he rushed straight towards Pamela.

"Tat-tat-tat-tat..."

There was only a burst of gunshots, and the three throwing knives were hit by the bullets and flew to nowhere.

The gunfire kept going, and the bullets shot towards the position of the death knell.

Death Knell's keen fighting instinct made him rush to the left in an instant, and the bullet missed him.

At this time, the death knell looked towards the direction where the bullet flew out, and saw that Barbara was holding her own Uzi submachine gun in her hand.

It turned out that when the death knell was restrained by the branches of the giant tree controlled by Pamela, the submachine gun fell to the ground.

That's when Barbara picked up the submachine gun.

"Good marksmanship."

Deathstroke casts approving glances at Barbara.

The skill of shooting down flying knives with a gun is quite difficult in itself, and Barbara uses a submachine gun, and its trajectory is much more difficult to control than a pistol or a semi-automatic rifle.

But Barbara did it, and knocked down three throwing knives at once.

This marksmanship has to be said to be the true biography of Gordon.

It is estimated that the top shooters like Deathstroke, Punisher, and Deathshooter can surpass her in marksmanship.

"I didn't see you pull out a gun all night yesterday. I thought you didn't know how to use a gun. I didn't expect you to hide it so deep."

"Hehe, but this is better, I won't have to work hard to teach you to aim in the future..."

The death knell smiled heartily. Not only did this scene not annoy him, but he admired Barbara even more.

Barbara held a submachine gun and fired at the death knell.

The death knell went around to hide behind the burning giant tree.

This is also convenient for Death Knell to have more time to react when Pamela's charge is completed after a while.

However, this is exactly in Barbara's arms.

Hiding behind the giant tree, Death Knell's sight was blocked. Although he could judge the situation on the opposite side through the sound, it was not as thorough as observing with his own eyes, and it was easy to cause misjudgment.

At this time, Barbara and Pamela looked at each other and smiled, a tree root pierced the floor, looking down into a bottomless pothole.

The sound of the tree roots gushing out made Death Knell's expression froze. Poison Ivy's attack was coming. He listened intently to the situation behind the giant tree.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

Nothing happened.

The death knell thought of something instantly, put the samurai sword into the sheath, took out the spare pistol and flashed out from behind the giant tree.

Barbara and Pamela had long been lost in front of them.

"interesting."

The death knell walked around the pothole and looked down. Except for the intricate tree roots, he could only see the deep darkness.

"You can't escape Gotham..."

Some time later, in the underground tunnel at the junction of Burnley and Audisburg, Pamela manipulated tree roots to send herself and Barbara here.

She didn't rush out of the ground, in order not to attract attention.

"It's safe for the time being. No matter how strong the tracking ability of Death Knell is, it is impossible to find it underground in a short time."

Pamela comforted Barbara with a forced smile.

At this moment, she is still immersed in the memory of the botanical garden being shrouded in flames, and she is afraid that it will be difficult to get out for a while.

In Pamela's heart, Death Knell has been included in the must-kill list.

"I'm sorry, Pamela, maybe I shouldn't have gone to the Giordano Botanic Gardens."

Barbara apologized with an apology on her face.

She didn't expect that things would develop like this. Pamela, who had come to save her, hated Deathstroke even more than she herself.

"Don't mind, you didn't do anything wrong. If you didn't go to the botanical garden, I might not be able to find you so quickly."

Pamela said softly to Barbara.

"If you really let the death knell take you away, I will... When I return to New York, how should I explain to Maggison?"

Halfway through the speech, Pamela was shocked and joked.

Fortunately, Pamela responded in a timely manner, and Barbara didn't hear anything wrong, but was ridiculed and turned red.

"Barbara, I have to tell you something."

Pamela changed the subject and said to Barbara with a serious expression.

"The plants told me that in the underground tunnel ahead, we are not the only two living people!"

Pamela pointed in the direction of the Audisburg district, which was Gordon's temporary base...

at dusk.

Old town, outside the stronghold of the black mask next to the clock tower.

A middle-aged man carrying a toolbox cautiously walked to the door and knocked lightly.

"Hi... hi! I'm a repairman... come here to fix... an elevator..."

The repairman obviously knew who was hiding in this building, and his words were full of respect and fear.

"Why are you here so late?"

The door opened, and four thugs in suits wearing black masks stepped out from inside.

When I first saw the repairman, I asked viciously.

"Yes...sorry, I am the only repairman left in the city hall, and all the repair work is done by myself, so I came so late today."

The repairman nodded and bowed to several thugs.

"Put down the toolbox, we're going to check you for any dangerous items."

It was said that the repairman put the toolbox on the ground very obediently, and at the same time raised his hands above his head.

Two thugs stared at him closely, while the other two checked the repairman and the contents of the toolbox respectively.

In the end, nothing suspicious was found.

"Hmph, go in quickly. If the elevator is not repaired before the sun rises tomorrow, you can wait to taste this."

A thug drew a pistol and threatened the repairman's forehead.

The repairman, of course, began to shake his legs, obviously frightened.

"Yes yes yes ... yes ... I ... I will soon ... fix the elevator ... don't kill me, please don't kill me!"

Seeing the terrified look of the repairman, the thug burst out laughing.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm just joking with you, if I really kill you, what if the elevator breaks down again?"

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the people laughed together.

"The elevator stops between the fourth and fifth floors, right? Didn't it fall?"

Under the gunpoint, the repairman could only endure, and turned to ask a few people about their business.

"Yes, it didn't fall."

"Then I probably understand the situation, and it will be fixed soon."

Hearing the repairman's confident words, several thugs were very happy.

Then, the repairman followed the four of them into the building, and then went all the way to the elevator room on the fifth floor.

On the way, they encountered many patrolling personnel.

However, there are no other thugs in the elevator room, after all, it is currently abandoned.

It can be seen that the elevator door has also been pried open.

This is not surprising, because when the elevator suddenly gets stuck, there are probably people inside.

And if they want to come out, they can only stand on the top of the elevator and go out through the elevator door on the fifth floor.

The repairman looked down the elevator shaft, and the top of the elevator was about two meters away.

"I have to go down and have a look first."

The repairman looked at several thugs and said.

"No problem, you go down."

The repairman first jumped to the top of the elevator, and then entered through the opened skylight of the elevator.

After a while, the voice of the repairman came up from below.

"I found the reason why the elevator got stuck, but I need a person's help, can you get down alone?"

The four thugs looked at each other, and the guy who had put a gun to the mechanic's forehead earlier stepped forward.

"With his thin appearance, I can kill several of them with my bare hands, so I don't have to worry about whether he will play tricks."

Ever since, the thug jumped down.

"Fuck, there's no one in the elevator, where did that guy go?"

As soon as he entered the elevator, he didn't see the repairman. He was about to explain the situation to the three people above.

However, a stabbing pain hit his neck, and at the same time his mouth and nose were tightly covered, and the thug lost consciousness instantly.

"boom!"

A few seconds later, there was a sudden loud noise from under the elevator shaft.

"Wardfark! What was that noise just now?"

The three people in the elevator room on the fifth floor hurriedly looked into the elevator shaft and found that the elevator was actually sinking!
It is no longer between the fourth and fifth floors, but between the fourth and third floors...
