Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 30

Because just after the mine owner auctioned the golden green cat's eye, he died suddenly in less than a week!

The cause of death was said to be sudden myocardial infarction caused by excessive drinking.

As for how to dispose of the $2000 million estate after the death of the mine owner, there is no news.

It is only known that the mine owner has a daughter in her 20s, but it seems that due to some unknown factors, she has lost her inheritance rights.

There is a very small part of the description in the only report fragments, saying that the daughter of the mine owner once claimed that her father did not have the habit of drinking alcohol, and even basically did not drink much alcohol.

But someone said that "a huge blow from bankruptcy can easily change a person", making the sudden drunken death of the mine owner seem reasonable.

That's right, this so-and-so person was a lawyer hired by Daggett, and it was this lawyer who made things difficult for the mine owner's daughter to lose her inheritance rights, and was even forced to suspend her studies because she lost her source of income...

Gotham City, East End.

The most chaotic and filthy area in the entire city, gathered more than [-]% of Gotham's poor and homeless.

This is also the birthplace of countless talents in Arkham Asylum.

In the depths of the slums, in a dilapidated small house, Pamela curled up in a corner with her hands clasped tightly around her knees.

She didn't dare to run outside because she was too beautiful, and in the chaotic East District, the more beautiful a woman was, the more dangerous she was.

The dilapidated wooden door that creaked when the wind blew gently did not give Pamela any sense of security. She was always afraid that a group of unbearable beasts might break in in the next second.

"Bang bang bang!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, which made Pamela tremble all over.

She tremblingly pressed against the door, hoping to block possible knocking on the door.

"Excuse me, is that Miss Eisley in there?"

Pamela didn't dare to answer. Although the voice outside the door was gentle and amiable, it didn't mean that she could open the door unprepared.

Because besides the thugs who might come to the door, Daggett's people might come here too.

She had seen enough of those sanctimonious and ugly faces, so she didn't want to pay attention to the people outside the door.

"I'm not Daggett's subordinate, I'm here to help you."

Outside the door, Maggison said softly. After waiting for a long time, he still couldn't get a response from Pamela, so he had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​letting her open the door.

First he stuffed an envelope into the crack of the door, then he backed away and said, "Miss Eisley, I feel sympathy for what happened to you, so I am here sincerely to return the lost property."

"If Daggett finds out about this, he will definitely be against you again, so leave Gotham as soon as possible. In addition to your things, there is a ticket to New York in the envelope."

Hearing these words, Pamela looked puzzled, she couldn't understand what the man outside said at all.

Looking down, there was actually a white envelope protruding from under the door.

Pamela picked up the envelope suspiciously, and opened it, only to see that inside was the golden-green cat's eye that her father had auctioned!
As the people outside the door said, the envelope contained not only golden and green cat eyes, but also a direct boat ticket to New York and a thousand dollars in cash. Although it was not much, it was enough to make Pamela cover her mouth with red eyes.

"Thank you."

At this time, apart from these two words, Pamela couldn't say anything else.

Of course, she already knew who the person was outside the door, and she also knew about the uproar about the Phantom Thief Kidd stealing the golden-green cat's eye.

"You're welcome, you can go directly to the pier by heading south from here. Don't worry on the way, those little bastards won't hurt you."

"Oh, by the way, the clothes you are wearing now should be too old to wear, and I brought you a new set of clothes, but there is no way for you to take a bath, so you can only make do with it."

Maggison put the big bag in his hand on the ground and said, "The clothes can't be stuffed in through the crack of the door. I know you won't trust strangers now, so I won't appear in your sight."

Pamela listened quietly. After a while, she heard footsteps going away, and soon all the sounds outside disappeared.

After a while, she poked her head out cautiously, and there was indeed a bag of clothes outside the door, and there was no one in sight, and even the sounds of fighting and fighting that used to happen every night disappeared.

Pamela pursed her lips, decided to trust Maggison once, picked up the bag and went back to the house.

"This... the size is just right?"

After changing her clothes, Pamela was surprised to find that the clothes fit her well.

"Phantom Thief Kidd, what an amazing person..."

The time for the ship to set sail was tonight, so without further ado, Pamela tidied up casually, walked out the door, and ran towards the pier.

Along the way, there really wasn't any harassment.

At first Pamela was a little worried, but soon she was relieved.

When approaching the pier, Pamela suddenly stopped.

She looked hesitant and kept looking around, as if trying to find someone.

"Miss Eisley, are you looking for me?"

Without warning, a gentle voice sounded behind Pamela.

This voice has a magical power that can soothe the anxiety in people's hearts.

Pamela turned her head abruptly, and the white monster came into view.

Even though she had seen quite a few pictures of the Phantom Thief, this was the first time she had seen it with her own eyes.

At this moment, Pamela was attracted by the demeanor of Kaitou Kidd, and was fascinated by it.

"Ahem, Miss Eisley?"

Maggison coughed twice as a reminder.

"Ah! Sorry, I was so rude."

Pamela blushed.

"Never mind, Miss Eisley, I'm glad you'd like to meet me exactly."

Maggison showed a gentle smile, and he knelt down on one knee like a gentleman, and slowly took Pamela's hand.

Then kissed her lightly on the back of the hand.

"K...Mr. Kidd?"

Pamela withdrew her little hand with a flushed face, her heart pounding like a deer.

Hearing this address, Maggison was taken aback for a moment, and then came to understand.

No one knows the real name of Kaitou, so Kidd can only be called as a name.

"You took the risk to steal my father's relic from Daggett, and you helped me leave Gotham. Thank you very much!"

Pamela said with a serious face, the blush on her face hadn't dissipated, and she looked extremely cute with her already delicate and lovely face.

It seems that Pamela thought that Kidd stole the gem to help her get justice.

McKesson was ashamed. He didn't know about it when he stole the gem.

But let this wonderful misunderstanding perpetuate.

"I know that if I stay in Gotham, I will get revenge from Daggett sooner or later, but what if I go to New York?"

"This jewel caused a tragedy for my father, so I don't want to keep it anymore..."

Pamela's eyes were full of confusion, which was why she didn't run to the pier in one breath.

"It's easy, there's a guy in New York called Tony Stark, you go to him with Chrysoberine, tell him everything, he'll buy the gem, and he won't do anything like Daggett. "

"As for Daggett, you needn't worry too much about him."

McKesson showed her a bright path.

Hearing what Magison said, Pamela was finally relieved.

"Woo~woo~"

At this time, the whistle sounded in the direction of the pier, and the cruise ship set sail!

"No, it's still 10 minutes before the sailing time?"

Pamela panicked, who would have thought that the cruise ship would leave early at this time, and it would be nice not to be late in normal times.

"Don't be afraid, I'll take you up."

Maggison smiled reassuringly at Pamela, took her hand and ran to the building not far away.

On the top of the building, Maggison turned his head and asked, "Have you ever experienced the feeling of flying?"

"Huh?" Pamela was stunned.

"Remember to hold me tight!"

I saw Maggison hugging Pamela by the waist, sprinting towards the pier, ran to the edge of the roof, and jumped off!

"Ah!" Pamela screamed in fright, her eyes were closed tightly, and her arms were tightly wrapped around Maggison's neck.

"Haha, Miss Eisley, don't be afraid, we won't fall."

Hearing Kidd's teasing, Pamela slowly opened her eyes, and was shocked by the scene before her, speechless.

I actually flew up in the sky, and got a clear view of the night view of Gotham. Looking down, the sparse pedestrians are like ants, and the blurred lights flicker everywhere.

"What a nice view……"

Pamela murmured.

"Yeah, it's beautiful. Even the nights in Gotham sometimes have a beautiful side."

Listening to Magison's words, Pamela turned her attention to the face of Kaitou Kidd. What kind of face is under the monocle?
Maggison hugged herself with both hands, and at this moment she only needed to reach out gently to take off Kidd's glasses.

Pamela was very curious about Kidd's true face, but she knew that this was Maggison's biggest secret, so she didn't do it, but stared at Maggison's face with rapt eyes.

I just feel that no woman in the world can resist Kidd's charm.

Unknowingly, Pamela's face moved closer and closer to Maggison's, and finally kissed him on the cheek.

"!"

Maggison's eyes widened instantly. Was he... being taken advantage of?
