Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

"Sheriff Bullock is right, we should listen to these young people."

Suddenly, Biska spoke from the side.

"But protecting diamonds and arresting thieves is the job of the police. Ordinary citizens have no right to interfere, nor should they."

Gordon said with a serious face, "What's more, they are still underage children. If something happens, I can't imagine the scene at that time."

"And what about Batman and his assistants?"

At this time, a thick female voice came from behind Biska, and the person who spoke was the female bodyguard.

"Do they have the right to intervene in your police investigation? Isn't Robin also a minor? And I also heard that GCPD will take the initiative to light up the Bat lamp to seek Batman's help..."

"Carina!"

Biska interrupted her to continue.

Then, these two sentences already had sufficient lethality, making Gordon's face turn green and pale, which was really ugly.

Not out of anger, not out of embarrassment, but a deep sense of powerlessness.

No one in the world knows better than Gordon the fact that the GCPD needs Batman far more than the average person realizes.

The more he understands this fact, the more he is in a dilemma. The existence of the vigilante itself is a silent resistance to the local police, but the regular police have to rely on the vigilante to deal with criminals they cannot deal with.

It's both ridiculous and pathetic.

Gordon had no way to refute Karina's words, nor could he give up his ideas.

"They're not like Robin, and the day I'm most upset with Batman is the day Robin shows up, and I'm not going to forgive him for pulling a kid into his world anyway."

Gordon said softly but firmly.

Well said, but unfortunately the Robin you mentioned is right in front of you.

Dean grumbled inwardly.

If it weren't for knowing that Robin and Batgirl were here, Dean might have been touched by Gordon a little bit.

This old policeman abides by his inner creed and has been fighting in Gotham for decades without wavering. This perseverance and perseverance are really admirable.

"I don't want to hit you, Commissioner Gordon. I have always given full trust to the Gotham police, but the notice letter that you have been unable to unravel has been unraveled by a few children. Now I still Trust you and your officers, but I also think there's something special about these kids, they're different than normal kids."

Biska stepped forward and said, "We don't want these kids to rush to the front to fight criminals, but to listen to their ideas and suggestions, maybe they can find details that we can't."

"You are so right, Miss Knell, thank you for accepting our help."

Barbara said happily, and then grabbed Dean over.

"I want to introduce you to Dean Suston. Although he is young, he is one of the most famous magicians in Gotham. Many magic masters have praised his level for not matching his age."

"I bet he will definitely play a very important role in dealing with Kaito Kidd."

Dean smiled awkwardly and said, "Hi, Miss Ke Neil, nice to meet you."

It was not Biska who responded to him first, but Karina who was behind her.

"You're Suston? I've heard of you."

Karina looked at Dean in surprise, and said, "Tell me what you think of this exhibition hall? I'm curious about your opinion."

"ah?"

This unexpected question made Dean not quite understand for a while.

"I forgot to tell you that Karina is a security expert specially recruited by the Smithsonian Institution. She just returned from London. She is good at formulating various forms of protection measures. This exhibition hall is specially designed by her."

Biska introduced.

"Also, the equipment and materials are provided by us."

On the other side, curator Offi said, making himself somewhat present.

"It turns out that this exhibition hall was designed by you. Why did you freeze the diamonds in ice? You also built a refrigeration room for it."

Bullock, who was behind Dean and the others, also broke into the topic.

"Well, I want to hear the thoughts of this Mr. Suston first, and explain why he did this from the perspective of a magician."

Karina smiled slightly.

Dean stretched out his hand and touched his chin, and said with a serious expression: "To be honest, I really don't like the low temperature in this exhibition hall. In other words, no magician would like a low temperature environment."

"As we all know, technique is a very important part of magic, and what determines this is the dexterity of the fingers."

Having said that, Dean stretched out his other hand openly, and grabbed it twice in the air with his slender and delicate fingers.

"In a lower temperature environment, the hands will become stiff, resulting in a severe reduction in flexibility. Even if you wear thermal clothing, if your hands are still exposed, the flexibility of your fingers will still be affected."

"For a magician who strives for excellence, as long as there is a slight difference in the flexibility of the fingers, the implementation of many techniques will cause a strong sense of discomfort, and the possibility of revealing flaws will also be greatly increased."

"Putting diamonds in ice cubes will further intensify the impact of the cold, and such a large piece of solid ice, its strength cannot be underestimated, even with a flamethrower, it is difficult to melt it in a short time."

"And this also meets the requirements of the public exhibition that the audience must clearly see the diamonds but at the same time not get too close. This is a very genius idea, and it is much more reliable than sending a dozen people to surround the exhibition cabinets."

As soon as this remark came out, Bullock's old face suddenly turned red.

"What's more, this is still a very small space. After all, the number of people who come in at a time is limited. There are very few blind spots that can be used, and it is easier to be found by mixing with the crowd."

After listening to Dean's speech, Karina nodded with satisfaction.

"Well said, I designed this exhibition hall based on this point."

She smiled confidently, "In addition to the cold, the diamonds in the ice cubes are also equipped with signal generators. Once the position of the diamonds is detected to move, or the signal suddenly disappears, the door of the exhibition hall will be locked instantly, and at the same time the corner of the wall will be locked." The cold air blown by the refrigerator will be switched to hypnotic gas, which will stun everyone in the exhibition hall at that time, and then investigate one by one who stole the diamond."

The interior of the exhibition hall is completely closed, except for a door, there is no entrance or exit, not even a vent.

Even the power supply is completely independent, because this exhibition hall is temporarily manufactured, so it is not connected to the main power supply line, and all the equipment in it uses independent power supply.

"This anti-theft design is really powerful, and the difficulty is higher than ever before, and it's not counting Robin, Batgirl or even anyone."

Dean was serious in his heart, thinking about how to break through such a tight line of defense.

This thought brought to mind the next day.

The time has come to April 1st.

That is the day that Phantom Thief Kidd announced.
