Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 98 Escape from the scene (first update!)

The roots that emerge from the ground are getting thicker and longer.

It even split into two branches, the thickest root swept towards Batman, and Batman could only dodge backwards.

The slender tree roots gently extended to Maggison's body, and then slammed onto Maggison's handcuffs, breaking it.

The roots then gently wrapped themselves around Maggison's waist, pulling him into the hole created when the roots gushed out of the ground.

After a while, the ground stopped shaking, and the roots that sprang up stopped growing.

Batman walked to the side of the cave and went down, it was bottomless.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, Iron Man landed here, and the Batmobile followed Iron Man and drove over automatically.

"What just happened?"

Looking at the disfigured scene destroyed by huge tree roots, Tony asked Batman.

"Someone rescued Kaito Kidd."

Batman affirmed that if Kidd himself had this ability, he would not have been driven to a dead end by himself before.

"Kidd has accomplices?"

According to Tony's knowledge, Kidd has always committed crimes independently.

"I don't know."

Batman walked to the other side and picked up the broken special handcuffs with space stabilization effect.

"Ordinary materials really can't carry too much energy, the handcuffs are too easily destroyed by external forces..."

Although this pair of handcuffs was made by Batman, the design idea was not entirely completed by him alone.

It was a long time ago that he met a friend with a bad personality that made people want to kill him, and popularized some knowledge to him, so that Batman successfully created this pair of handcuffs.

Enemies encountered in the past did not require him to use this knowledge until the appearance of Kaitou Kidd. Fortunately, Batman did not forget that knowledge.

"How did you know Kaito Kidd would use a dummy to attract my attention? Even Jarvis didn't realize it was a dummy."

At this time, Tony asked what he had been holding back in his heart.

"In Gotham, as long as Kidd commits a crime, he will definitely use a dummy to get away, and the only place where he has a chance to release a dummy is..."

"Just because of this?"

"Because of this."

Batman said blankly, Tony didn't know if what he said was true or not.

In fact, Batman certainly doesn't just rely on this to determine Kaitou Kidd's plan.

The real reason should be that Maggison used bullet time.

In Batman's first confrontation with Kidd in Gotham, he had a taste of bullet time.

Although he still doesn't know exactly how Kidd achieved that weird state, Batman's body has naturally recorded that weird feeling.

That feeling as if time had suddenly stopped, just the moment Iron Man smashed through the billboard, Batman had a similar feeling.

He doesn't have a good way to deal with it yet, but at least he can be sure that Kaitou Kidd must have done something at that moment, and the biggest possibility is to use a dummy.

That's why Batman did his tricks and made a dummy to let the Batmobile follow Iron Man.

And he himself deduced the best escape route through the building location where Kidd released the dummy, and then waited for the rabbit by guarding the tree stump...

In the deep cave at least 100 meters underground, the slender tree roots took Maggison forward quickly.

McKesson had already guessed who had done all this.

Except for Pamela, the poison ivy girl, no one in this world can freely manipulate plants.

Soon, Maggison felt himself rising from the ground.

"They will find here soon, let's leave as soon as possible!"

As soon as he went up, Maggison heard a woman's voice, which was Pamela.

Her state at this time is very strange, her originally fair skin is now covered with a layer of light green, and even her red hair has been greatly affected, turning dark red.

As she becomes more proficient in her abilities, her skin color will also become darker and darker.

But when she doesn't use her ability, her complexion returns to normal.

When Magison just came out and looked at her, Pamela subconsciously covered her face and turned away, and at the same time canceled the use of the ability. She didn't want Kaito Kidd to see herself when using the ability.

After turning around, Pamela has changed back to normal.

This is already outside Stark Expo, but the distance is not far away.

Although there is no monitoring nearby, the tree roots gushing out caused a lot of movement before. Iron Man can follow the cave to find them, and it won't be long before they arrive at their location.

"Thank you for saving me."

Maggison sincerely thanked Pamela, if not for her timely rescue, his identity would be known by Batman.

Although Bruce may not be against him, he will definitely take the opportunity to blackmail him into being a Robin, which is worse than killing him.

"Hurry up Kidd, we don't have much time, we can pretend to be husband... lovers, so that we won't be suspected."

Pamela suggested, blushing inexplicably on her face.

Without further ado, Maggison didn't care whether it fit or not, and immediately changed into a high-end suit that had been prepared long ago, and then put on a valuable watch.

Then, Maggison naturally took Pamela's hand.

"Why save me? Do you know that saving me will cause you a lot of trouble."

The two left here quickly. On the way, Maggison asked intently, but he regretted it after asking.

Pamela was startled at first, then her eyes quickly became firm.

"I've been in love with you since you rescued me from that sinful city!"

"You know I never let others see my true colors, and I never stop myself."

McKesson gazed seriously into Pamela's eyes.

"My footsteps will definitely not just stay in the two cities of Gotham and New York. The whole United States... and even the whole world are my stage. If you fall in love with me, you are destined not to get the happiness you deserve."

"I can be with you, as you have seen, I have the ability to help you..."

Speaking of this, Pamela suddenly stopped. She knew that her body would mutate when she used her abilities. She didn't know whether her skin color would turn green one day and could not be restored.

At that time, I must have looked ugly...

"Forget it, I don't want to bind your feelings. You saved me once before, and now I've saved you again. We'll be evened out in the future."

Pamela pretended to be calm.

Maggison didn't speak, but stopped suddenly, and then put his hand on Pamela's shoulder.

"What do you want to do?"

asked Pamela, blushing, her heart pounding.

"There will be surveillance not far ahead, and you also need a little disguise, otherwise they are likely to find you."

Maggison said calmly.

"Huh? Oh, you're right."

Pamela was disappointed.

I saw Maggison put his hands on Pamela's shoulders, and then turned hard, and Pamela unconsciously turned around on the spot.

Then, she became a noble young woman in an elegant evening dress, which was exactly the same as the current McKesson.

"Don't think too much now, wait until you leave here."

Maggison said softly.

Pamela nodded, and the two of them stayed away from here without saying a word...
