Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 161 It’s true, something is wrong with Kaitou Kidd

In Gotham, in a large botanical garden near the Cavaliers Stadium, a strange object as thick as a straw protruded from the soil.

The top of this object has a lens that is bent at 90 degrees. After a few turns, it retracts underground.

Immediately afterwards, a muffled sound of mechanical rotation came from the ground.

hum!hum!

I saw a huge drill bit coming out of the soil and quickly drilling a big hole in the ground.

Immediately afterwards, a figure covered in mud emerged from the soil.

"call--"

Dean breathed a sigh of relief and patted the dirt on his body casually, shaking off some larger mud chunks.

When operating underground, this is the inevitable outcome.

He had just crawled under the Cavaliers Stadium along the tunnel that had been dug in advance. In order to prevent others from discovering the tunnel, Dean used the system to exchange a two-meter-thick soil layer at both entrances and exits of the tunnel, making it appear to outsiders Everything is fine on the ground.

But this is also very inconvenient, that is, every time he enters and exits the tunnel, he must dig out the two-meter-thick soil layer again, and he will be covered in mud.

Before digging, you should also check whether there is anyone on the ground. Generally, the botanical garden is closed at this point, but there is no guarantee that you will accidentally bump into patrolling security guards, so confirmation in advance is a must.

This is how things are in the world. There is no perfect plan. Although digging tunnels has great advantages in terms of confidentiality, on the other hand, there are also such troubles.

"Calculating the time, they should have discovered the tunnel of the stadium. I have to leave as soon as possible."

After Dean climbed up from the ground, he checked the scene to make sure there were no clues left, and then quickly left the botanical garden.

At this point, there is no need to waste extra exclamation points to exchange for soil cover for authentic pits, because it will be a matter of time before they are discovered, and getting out as soon as possible is the primary goal.

Not long after Dean left, Cavaliers Stadium, the center of the field lawn.

A group of people took various tools and dug up the location pointed out by Batman.

After digging down almost two meters, a huge hole appeared in front of everyone.

At the bottom of the cave entrance, a dark searchlight was lying quietly inside, and it turned out to be a bat light.

And there is a deep tunnel with no end in sight behind the Bat Lantern, which is probably the escape route of Kaito Kidd.

"Batman is right, Kaitou Kidd really took the Bat-Light underground."

When they saw this, everyone couldn't help but look at Batman and Robin next to them, with surprise written on their faces.

Among them, Gordon and "Bruce" have the dullest expressions. They have been in contact with Batman for too long, and the latter has almost never missed them over the years.

Even so, when they saw the Bat Lantern, disbelief flashed in their eyes.

Not because Batman was right, but because of Kaitou Kidd.

No matter how hard they try, they can't imagine how the Bat Lantern was brought underground by Kid. They know that there is a two-meter-thick layer of soil on top of the Bat Lantern. Could it be that Kid is able to escape?

Not only could they not figure this out, but even Batman found it a bit bizarre.

Kaitou Kidd dug a tunnel about five meters below the ground, just enough for an adult to crawl forward. He only dug out a space about three meters high in the center of the lawn to accommodate the bat lamp.

The bat lamp is located directly above the cave, and there is no problem if it falls straight into the cave under the influence of gravity.

To be honest, this method itself is not particularly mysterious, and it is relatively easy to think of.

There are actually many similar techniques in movies. Dig a big pit underground, and place a wooden or iron board or other mechanism similar to the environment on top of the hole to cover the hole. When the mechanism is activated, the wooden board will automatically open, and the objects on it will be opened. Naturally, he fell into the pit.

Even as early as when Phantom Thief Kidd was previewing, some people had wondered whether the Bat Lantern might be hidden underground. However, at that time, Phantom Thief Kidd's tunnel had not yet been dug into the stadium, so after repeated inspections, it was found that everything was normal under the lawn.

Even if Kaitou Kidd has dug it, there is still two meters of soil under the ground, and common inspection methods still cannot find the existence of tunnels. No one will have time to dig two meters deep on the lawn to see if there is a tunnel underneath. .

Then the problem is coming.

How did Kaitou Kidd make the Bat Lantern break through the two-meter-thick soil and fall into a deeper cave?

No one could imagine it, including Batman.

At least, it's absolutely impossible to do this using conventional means.

Could it be that Kaitou Kidd really knows magic? Or did he use some kind of space teleportation technology?

"If that's the case, why did he dig this tunnel?"

In the pothole, Batman looked at the endless tunnel and asked himself.

"He could have just teleported the Bat Lantern away, but why didn't he do that? If the distance he could teleport was limited, he could also choose to teleport the gems in the Bat Lantern. There was no need to take away the Bat Lantern. Is it just for this? Create a more dramatic magic show?”

"If Kaitou Kidd doesn't have the ability to directly teleport the bat lantern, how did he make the bat lantern pass through two meters of soil?"

Thinking about it, Batman turned around and looked at the front of the Bat-Light, the cut-out Bat logo.

He put his hand in, and then some strange powder stuck to his fingers.

These are all micro trackers, many of which are hidden within the bat logo and on the ocean gems. These trackers are so small that they are no different from dust and are basically impossible to see after being dispersed.

According to Batman's expectation, when Kidd puts his hand in, he will get some trackers on his hands or cuffs. Unfortunately, it was unsuccessful. All the trackers are still in their original positions, and the tracking sticks on the gems All the utensils have also been taken down.

But this is to be expected. What Batman cares about most at this time is not the tracker, but the cutout on the Bat logo.

"The incision is extremely smooth. Kaito Kidd completed the cutting in a very short time. Even the cutting tools specially developed for promethium alloys developed by Wayne Group cannot reach this level. This means that he has something beyond the modern era of the earth. Technological cutting tools, alien technology? Or future technology? Or some unknown technology..."

"If Kaitou Kidd could directly transport gems out of the Bat Lantern, why did he use tools to cut them? It can be said that he changed away from the Bat Lantern for performance effect, but when he took out the gems underground, there was no audience. There was no such thing. A need..."

Batman frowned. The more he thought about it, the weirder he felt. Kaito Kidd's various actions seemed contradictory.
