Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 27 Specifying Task Triggers
"Mayor, this is Jim Gordon, what are your instructions?"

On this day, Gordon received a call from the mayor.

"Jim, there is a message from above that a heavyweight will visit Gotham in a while, and I have decided that you will be in charge of the security work. During this period, GCPD has canceled all routine tasks and is fully prepared for her arrival!"

"Not only the GCPD, but the FBI and CIA will also send elite personnel to assist, and there will also be many senior officials from Washington."

"Jim, this mission is very important. If something goes wrong, it may lead to a serious diplomatic accident!"

Gordon was confused.

"She? A woman who needs such a grand protection team, and a foreign dignitary... Who is this big shot?"

"Jim, her status is very honorable, so be careful!"

On the phone, the mayor's voice was extremely serious.

"Sorry, sir, with all due respect, this great man is..."

"Her name is Elizabeth, and I'm sure you know exactly what that name means!"

After speaking, the mayor hung up the phone.

Gordon froze in place, he couldn't believe what he had just heard.

"GCPD, all staff gather urgently!"

Within a few days, a piece of news that shocked the whole country spread throughout the streets and alleys.

The queen of country Y is going to visit the United States, and the place is Gotham City!

Time, July 7th!
Five days later!

Elizabeth, the longest reigning queen in the history of country Y, is also one of the most powerful women in the world.

Definitely a heavyweight among heavyweights.

Gotham City was literally exploded, and countless people were extremely excited to see the true face of the legendary queen.

The mayor mobilized all available manpower, and must make Elizabeth's trip to the United States come to a successful conclusion.

Gotham University, countless students are discussing this matter.

Young people often have a strong interest in this kind of thing.

Naturally, Maggison is also indispensable.

It's just that his focus is different from others.

Because, in McGeeson's eyes, he didn't care at all whether the queen of country Y made a special trip to visit the United States, and he didn't want to bother why she came to Gotham.

Only an inconspicuous sentence in the long full-page English alphabet introducing Elizabeth in the Gotham Gazette caught Maggison's attention deeply.

"It is said that during this visit to the United States, Her Majesty Elizabeth will still wear her most beloved necklace..."

necklace!

"There are many necklaces in King Y's collection, but that one is the most favorite of the Queen and will be worn on most formal occasions."

Tamil Ruby Necklace!

Market value...priceless!
This necklace was worn by Elizabeth when she was crowned. It has been with the queen for half a century, and its luster remains undiminished. It is one of the most precious gemstones in the world.

Although Adam's Star is the largest sapphire, it is not the most expensive sapphire, let alone valuable.

Tamil Ruby is a truly priceless treasure, and it must have a B rating in the system.

Moreover, in addition to the GCPD, FBI, CIA and other elite police and elite agents participating in the protection, there are also local agents from country Y who will accompany them for protection.

When necessary, the army may even be dispatched.

"From the previous two rewards, it can be seen that the harder it is to steal and the more precious the treasure, the better the reward."

Not to mention the gorgeous level, daring to steal the queen's necklace of country Y is like declaring war on a country. Even if it fails in the end, it may shock hundreds of millions of people, and maybe the gorgeous level can be filled directly!
Maggison was a little eager to move, but when he thought of such a huge lineup of bodyguards, he still couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive.

"Trigger the specified task, do you want to accept it?"

Just as Maggison was wondering whether to take a risk, the system actually made a sound!
This was unprecedented, Maggison was surprised, and quickly opened the system panel to check.

As soon as he opened the panel, a pop-up window appeared in front of his eyes. The content was exactly what the system asked just now, except that there was an extra button for querying details.

"Tamil ruby, carried by the queen of a country, inherited the country's destiny for decades, and has undergone wonderful changes. Wearing it for a long time can make people live longer."

"It has been detected that there is a considerable amount of magic power in the Tamil ruby. If the host steals it, the system can extract the magic power and turn it into the host's own power."

"Preliminary judgment, the total amount of magic power of the host can reach the C-level standard."

Good guy, is this sleepy here to send a pillow?
What Maggison needs to improve most now is precisely the magic power. The C-level standard may not seem high, but Koizumi Hongko is also at this level in the system evaluation.

Only during the special period of the night of the full moon, Koizumi Hongzi's magic power can break through the B level.

As for Maggison, I'm afraid it's not even E-rank now, this is definitely the best reward that can be obtained so far!
"Warning: If the host fails to steal, it is likely to face prison, the risk is very high, please consider it at the discretion of the host!"

Yo ho?

Magison wondered, isn't it generally the system that forces the host to complete the task through various punishments?

Why come here to remind me that the task is risky, and I need to consider it as appropriate?

dude, I direct dude!

Does this Nima system look down on its own host or something, it's just the opposite!
But...you really have to think carefully, otherwise, if you are caught in prison, your reputation will be ruined.

Maggison rested his chin, lost in thought.

"Hey, Maggison! Wake me up!"

Suddenly, a deafening roar came from Maggison's ear, which almost scared him to death.

"Huh? Barbara, why are you yelling so loudly?"

McKesson woke up with a start, and turned to Barbara in bewilderment.

"I'm not yelling so loud, can you hear me?"

"What are you thinking about today? You've been out of your mind since school, and you haven't returned to normal when you get home."

Barbara squinted her eyes, looking very dissatisfied, "I'm still holding the newspaper tightly in my hand, and I can't even pull it off..."

"Couldn't you be fascinated by seeing some female celebrity's report, huh?"

Hearing this, Maggison wiped the sweat from his forehead, not knowing how to explain it.

Strictly speaking, Elizabeth's personality is relatively close to the people, and she is very popular on the Internet. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is an international superstar...

Wait, Elizabeth?
Maggison smiled and said to Barbara: "How is it possible, do you think I am that kind of person?"

Barbara looked suspicious, obviously not believing what he said.

"If you don't believe me, you can read the newspaper. This is the Queen of Country Y, not some female star."

McKesson turned the paper over to prove his innocence.

"Her Majesty? Speaking of which, my father will also be involved in her protection work. During this period of time, the GCPD has given up almost all tasks except for criminal cases!"

Barbara was successfully attracted by Maggison, "But what does the queen's visit have to do with you, and it shouldn't shock you for so long, right?"
