Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

After a while, all inspection work is basically completed.

First came Lucius and Gordon. They carefully checked the Bat-Light for a long time and found nothing that looked like it had been tampered with.

Then a high-frequency vibrating molecular knife specially used to cut promethium alloy plates was used to remove the bat logo and cut it open. The ocean gemstones of Atlantis were indeed still inside.

After Bruce's later appraisal, it was finally determined that the ocean gem was genuine.

It has to be said that the strength of promethium alloy is really not low. Even with a tool that can cut at the molecular level, it still took a lot of time to cut the cover of the bat logo.

Later, they had to take out a new container with the bat symbol, put the ocean gems in it and seal it again. The work was tedious and troublesome, but it had to be done.

When it comes to the camera, what Lucius was worried about still happened.

The seven malfunctioning cameras were equipped with miniature timed electromagnetic detonation devices. The impact range was very small, just enough to stop one camera from working.

When the countdown to the detonation of the device ended, these cameras entered a paralyzed state at the same time, and no footage was captured of Kaitou Kidd starting to transform into the Bat Lantern.

Although it's a pity, the fact is that they may be missing an important clue to expose Kaitou Kidd.

Gordon returned to the GCPD with resentment. He wanted to regulate personnel for the official showdown between Bruce and Kidd three days later.

Although Bruce has always disagreed with letting the police protect the gems at close range, it is foreseeable that on the day of Kidd's action, a large number of citizens will probably gather at the Cavaliers Stadium. Even if it is just to maintain order, there will not be many fewer manpower required.

After all, Kaitou Kidd's situation is different from that of some celebrities, and Gotham's situation is even different from other cities. With more people, the risk factor may rise sharply.

Therefore, Gordon took over the entire Cavaliers Stadium auditorium and outfield defenses into the hands of the GCPD, and the center of the football field where the bat light was located was arranged by Bruce himself.

On the other side, Bruce's mood was not as ups and downs as Gordon's. The missing video captured by seven cameras did lose a key clue, but it also gave Bruce another clue.

After returning to the Batcave, Bruce sat in front of the Batcomputer and started working the night shift. His mind was thinking about countless possibilities and needed to verify them one by one.

Not long after, Dick, wearing a Robin uniform, pushed a Batmobile with a severely deformed front into the Batcave.

The first thing he said when he came back was to Bruce: "How did it feel to meet Kaito Kidd for the first time?"

"This is the third Batbike you've crashed this month."

Bruce didn't look back.

"What does it matter? Anyway, the most important thing you need is a motorcycle... Don't look at me like that. I didn't hurt anyone, nor did I damage other people's cars or public property. I had to do it to save people." .”

Dick shrugged and said with an indifferent attitude at first, but after Bruce turned back to look at him expressionlessly, Dick immediately changed the subject and told the whole story of crashing the Batmobile.

He was done talking, and Bruce was done listening.

There was neither blame nor praise, not even a comment. Bruce just turned back and continued to look at the Batcomputer.

"Still the same as before, I couldn't figure out what Bruce was thinking. Every time I thought he would praise me, he would scold me. Every time I thought I was in trouble, he would Smile and tell me a job well done.”

"But most of the time, he is still like this. I can never figure out whether he thinks of me good or bad."

Dick thought helplessly in his heart, but he was basically immune to Bruce's "too lazy to care about you" attitude.

He walked up to Bruce with a relaxed smile on his face, and said with a playful smile: "I heard something about the Cavaliers Stadium on the way back. It is said that Kaitou Kidd stole the entire Bat Lantern? "

"I stole it in front of you. I thought you would be so angry that you would rush up and punch Kaitou Kidd on the spot."

Bruce said nothing and just continued what he was doing, as if he couldn't hear what Dick was saying.

"Okay, okay, I won't disturb you anymore. I'm going to go find Alfred to order something to eat. I'm really hungry tonight."

Dick had a bored expression on his face, curled his lips, turned around and walked upstairs, muttering to himself as he walked.

"There are a few barbecue rolls in the restaurant. Alfred specially saved them for you."

Bruce's voice suddenly came from behind Dick. He looked back and saw that the former didn't even move, as if the person who just spoke was not Bruce.

"I know, I'll go eat."

Dick raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned around and continued walking.

The next day, overwhelming news about Kidd's preview last night swept the entire Gotham City.

Newspapers, TV news, online news, and self-media, without exception, all have Kaitou Kidd as today's headlines.

In fact, there have been various gossips flying all over the sky since last night, but today it has been replaced by an explosive bombardment of information.

What teleportation method of appearance, what miracle of making the bat light disappear and come back, what kind of gorgeous exit that disappears into thin air, all the major platforms were maxed out overnight.

Among them, an unknown reporter or paparazzi uploaded a video of Kaitou Kidd on YouTube, and the number of views exceeded two million in a short period of time.

at the same time.

Diamond District, Iceberg Club.

Penguin read today's news, with a half-smile on his face.

"Kid is going to be in trouble."

Penguin said.

"Boss, what do you mean..."

O'Kilwe, who serves as Penguin's personal secretary, asked in confusion.

The last time the Stone of Doom plan failed, the Penguin was once very dissatisfied with Ogilvie.

Worried that Kidd, the thief, would use the Stone of Misfortune to avenge the Penguin, the Penguin had to go find the calculator himself and buy an amulet that could ward off bad luck.

It is worth mentioning that this amulet, like the Stone of Misfortune, was purchased from the black magician Faust. It is effective enough to resist the curse of the Stone of Misfortune and cost more than three million US dollars.

As for whether there are any unknown business secrets, Penguin said he did not want to discuss this issue in depth.

Fortunately, the situation was relatively calm during this period. Kaito Kidd did not come to see him, and he did not want to continue fighting with Kaitou Kidd.

Having said that, after seeing the news that Bruce Wayne had declared war on Kidd, and the news that the latter had stolen the Bat-Lamp last night, the Penguin still showed a gloating smile.

Faced with O'Kilwe's puzzled question, Penguin simply said: "You don't understand what Bruce Wayne means to this city, and you don't understand what the Bat-Light means to all criminals."

The corner of Penguin's mouth raised an obvious arc, "Kidd actually dared to attack Bat Lantern. His good days will soon be over, because his actions are actively provoking that person."
