Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 201 Black and White’s First Cooperation (2-in-1) (Page 12)

"I don't trust you."

Batman said bluntly.

"Tsk, you are really not polite at all."

Kaitou Kid smacked his lips and continued.

"But you should know very well that we have no extra time to waste right now, and Gotham has no time to wait."

"The man-bat virus leaked this time is not exactly the same as Kurt's original serum. The mutated people did not retain any sense and were completely dominated by instinctive animality. Kurt still retained at least part of his humanity."

"This means that the person behind this incident is likely to have modified the formula of the human-bat serum. This is the evidence."

Kaitou Kid narrated calmly. He pointed to a strange creature that was half human and half bat lying on the ground not far away in the alley behind him.

It is different from the countless human bats in the sky. Compared to bats, its overall characteristics are closer to humans, especially the head which has basically returned to human shape, with only the hair and claws remaining unchanged.

It looked like a man-bat that had used a poor-quality antidote and only returned to half-human form without any effect.

That was a man-bat that attacked Batman and Kid the Kid not long ago when they were looking for the origin of the virus.

The two easily solved it and then used the antidote on it.

It’s just that Batman’s antidote was used this time. After all, Kaito Kidd’s anti-human-bat potion cannot be produced in large quantities. It would be okay if there were only a few human-bats, but there are at least hundreds of thousands of human-bats in the East District. And this number is growing rapidly.

Even if Bruce Wayne is stolen, Kidd the Phantom Thief won't be able to get so many wow points.

The reason why Kidd took the initiative to take out the potion in Robinson Park was to let Batman understand the "reason" why he took the Man-Bat serum in the first place, so that Batman would not be hostile to him on this point in the future.

He knew it was impossible to eliminate Batman's hostility, but at least he could make it less deadly.

On the other hand, it was also because Batman did not carry the antidote on his body at the time.

So where did Batman's man-bat antidote come from at this time?

Just look up and you will understand.

Above Kaid and Kidd, a black bat-shaped aircraft was hovering in the sky. It turned out to be the Bat Fighter.

Bats were constantly swooping around the Bat-Fighter, and were then repelled or even knocked down by the various non-lethal weapons equipped on the Bat-Fighter, preventing them from getting close to Kidd and Batman below.

Well... those dazzling laser beams and the Bat-brand missiles whose explosions resounded throughout the sky are all "non-lethal".

After learning from the infected person who flew to Robinson Park that the situation in the East End had changed drastically, both Batman and Kidd realized the seriousness of the situation.

So Batman temporarily called over the Bat Fighter as the main force against the Man-bat army, and also delivered a lot of antidotes for the Man-bat serum.

It was only after Batman used the antidote that they were surprised to find that the treatment effect was not very satisfactory.

There are many possible reasons. For example, the man-bat virus released now has changed the original formula of the man-bat serum, making the mutated man-bat more violently aggressive.

Or maybe Batman's antidote is developed based on Kurt's DNA combined with human-bat serum. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a special medicine for Kurt, and the effect will be reduced when used on other people.

Most likely, both reasons exist simultaneously.

Kaito Kidd's antidote does not have this problem. The Inverse Man-Bat Reagent produced by the system is aimed at all DNA changes based on the Man-Bat Serum. All derivatives based on this can effectively repair it.

Unless it's not a product based on human bat serum.

"Batman, as of now, relying on the human-bat serum antidote you currently have cannot perfectly solve these infected people. How long will it take for you to collect samples and change the antidote again? Gotham Can you afford to wait?"

Kaitou Kidd pointed out the key points with a serious look.

"The antidote in my hand can perfectly cure these man-bats. You can see this for yourself. Although I don't have a lot of antidote, I know that Wayne Group can definitely increase the effect of the antidote and spread it to A city-wide installation.”

At this point, his meaning was already clear. Kaitou Kidd planned to use this device to spread the anti-human bat reagent throughout the city to solve the current human-bat plague.

"From here to Wayne Tower, there will be countless man-bats blocking the way. I need the help of the big guy above."

Kaitou Kid pointed at the Bat fighter in the sky and said.

Batman was silent for a long time, his face expressionless, and it was impossible to tell what his intentions were.

In his heart, Batman knows that Kidd is right. His antidote must be further improved to cure the man-bat mutants, but this will take time.

Kaitou Kidd already has a ready-made antidote, so using it directly is naturally the fastest and best solution.

The Wayne Group does have a similar device. Batman asked Lucius Fox to build one many years ago, specifically to deal with such city-level biochemical attacks, such as Scarecrow's fear gas, Joker's laughing gas, Poison Ivy's poisonous spores and more.

Implementing Kaitou Kidd's proposal will definitely solve the incident smoothly.

However, even at this juncture, Batman's suspicion of Kidd remains unabated.

Even though he knew it was impossible, he was still thinking about what if Kaito Kidd was the undercover mastermind behind the scenes?

"Why do you want to involve yourself in this? This is a life-threatening matter. You are just a thief who pursues excitement and enjoys cheer. Why are you so keen on saving these people who have nothing to do with you?"

Finally, Batman spoke.

"Huh? Because I can save you, I will do whatever I can, and I won't do it if I can't. Isn't this natural?"

Kaitou Kidd heard this and asked with raised eyebrows.

"If you really ask me to give a reason, it is that sooner or later the Man-Bat Virus will spread to the entire Gotham. This is unacceptable to every Gothamite, including me."

Batman continued: "But you don't need to take risks yourself. Give me the antidote in your hand, and then hide in a place where the virus has not spread. I can let you go today."

"Do not."

Kaitou Kidd shook his head firmly, "This is the only thing I can't accept. I don't want my name to be missing from the list of heroes who saved the city. Just think that I want to enjoy the vanity of being a hero." .”

Batman frowned and thought in his mind: "If I suddenly subdue Kid the Kid and take the antidote from him... No, the chance of success is less than 50%. The greater possibility is that he will do it before me. The potion was destroyed in the last moment..."

After some deliberation, Batman finally made a decision and agreed to cooperate with Kidd.

"From now on, don't even think about leaving my sight, I will always keep an eye on you."

Staring into Kid's eyes, Batman said.
