Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World
Chapter 228 The End of Everything (Part 1) (Page 12)
Iceberg Casino, outside the VIP room.
Robin's proposal to go in and check out the gems was approved by Gordon and others.
"no!"
However, just as Robin was about to take action, a voice of opposition suddenly sounded.
Everyone was stunned on the spot, and when they looked back, they found that the person who made the noise was actually the mayor!
The mayor walked up to the crowd and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "We must not let Robin and that little bat girl go inside!"
"This? Mr. Mayor, what do you mean by this?"
Bullock felt puzzled by the mayor's sudden speech, "Only Robin and Batgirl have the corresponding equipment and skills. If they are not allowed to enter, can we just stand here and wait?"
"Or are we going to bet the lives of everyone present on whether the bomb has been deactivated?"
Faced with Bullock's questioning, the mayor remained calm and even taught him a lesson in return.
"You idiot! Do you know why you have more seniority than Gordon and have no less credit than him, but now he is your boss? This is the reason!"
The mayor's angry curse made Bullock's face turn red.
"Harvey is an excellent police officer, Mr. Mayor. Although he is not very smart sometimes, he has more experience than anyone else and has made great contributions to many incidents."
Gordon put in a kind word for his old partner.
The mayor was noncommittal.
"Sorry, Mr. Mayor, we are not very smart either. Can I ask you what you want to do?"
At this time, Robin and Batgirl joined the conversation, and it was obvious that they were not very happy about the mayor's words.
"Let me ask you, from just now to now, who has actually seen Kaitou Kidd?"
The mayor snorted coldly and asked them immediately.
"No."
The mayor continued to ask: "Does any of you know the true identity of Phantom Thief Kidd? Or is there anyone who can 100% prove that he is not Phantom Thief Kidd?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
"no!"
The mayor asked himself.
"None of you can 100% escape the suspicion of Kaitou Kidd. Even if you and Kaitou Kidd appeared in the same place at the same time, it is well known that Kaitou Kidd is very good at using dolls or other things to create the illusion of clones, so Kaito Kidd may be among us at this very moment!”
"And Robin and Batgirl, I believe you won't be Kaitou Kidd, but which one of you dares to take off your mask? You two are the most likely to be disguised."
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly fell into deep thought.
"You finally realize what the problem is."
The mayor said with a gloomy expression, "If I remember correctly, one of the rules set by the Phantom Thief Black Crow is: If we don't do our best to stop the actions of Phantom Thief Kidd, the bomb will explode."
"It was reasonable for us to stay where we were because our sight was blocked just now, but if it were us watching helplessly as someone disguised as Kaitou Kid went in and got the gems in an open and honest manner... Especially Robin and Batgirl, who are you two? Dare to take off your mask to prove your identity? You are the most suspicious person here!"
"Anyway, if we stand aside and do nothing during this process, what do you think the Phantom Thief Black Crow will do?"
At this moment, everyone understood the meaning of the mayor's words.
Even though it was an extremely despicable approach, who would think that the Phantom Thief Black Crow is a morally upstanding man?
When he was about to lose to Kaitou Kidd, God knew what he would do.
Phantom Thief Black Crow doesn't even necessarily follow the rules he sets himself!
"Do you understand? Among us, there is only one person who is definitely not Kaitou Kidd, and that's me!"
Finally, the mayor pointed to himself and said.
Of all the people present, only the mayor had appeared with Kaitou Kidd many times in different places, and had never been involved in any of Kaitou Kidd's cases. The most important thing was that he had just verified that he had no disguise.
"Even if you are right, Mr. Mayor, what does it mean?"
Brock asked confused.
"What I mean is that I should go and check the condition of the gems."
The mayor made a shocking statement.
"no!"
Gordon and Bullock immediately objected, "Let's not say that you shouldn't have participated in such a dangerous thing in the first place. Let's talk about your current physical condition. How could you crawl through the hook and lock?"
"It doesn't matter. You can wrap a safety rope around my waist and tie it tightly to the hook. Even if I accidentally fall, I won't hit the floor."
The mayor waved his hand nonchalantly.
"I believe that the quality of Batman's hook lock will not even bear my weight."
"This……"
Robin and Batgirl looked at each other. They didn't expect the mayor to make such a request.
"Our hook lock gun can bear objects weighing 500 kilograms, so safety should not be a problem, but... Mr. Mayor, this is not a wise decision."
"There's no time to think about what's wise or not! Just do as I say!"
The mayor waved his hand and rejected all opinions.
"Ok."
Seeing that the mayor had decided to leave, Robin and others had no choice but to agree.
Robin tied a safety rope around the mayor's waist and tied it to the hook rope. At the same time, Batgirl filled the hook lock gun and fired it at the innermost wall of the room.
The mayor grabbed the rope and climbed into the room little by little, trembling all over. During this process, he almost lost his hands and fell off the rope several times.
Although there was a safety rope for insurance, it still made everyone else watch with fear.
Finally, the mayor climbed up to the top of the glass cover with difficulty. He lay on the rope, stretched his hands downward with all his strength, touched both sides of the glass cover, and pulled it up.
Then he saw a piece of blue sapphire lying quietly on the booth under the glass cover. Kaitou Kidd did not succeed!
"What, isn't the gem still fine inside...wait, what is that?"
The mayor breathed a sigh of relief, and just as he was about to put the glass cover back on, he discovered that in addition to the gems, there was also a white card on the stand.
It was Kaitou Kidd's message.
"First meeting, respected Mr. Phantom Thief Black Crow."
The moment he saw the message, the mayor's expression changed drastically.
"Sure enough, you jumped out as planned."
At this moment, Robin outside the door suddenly spoke as I expected.
"Mr. Mayor, you must be the Phantom Thief Black Crow."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
"What are you talking about, Robin?"
The mayor said with an angry look on his face, "Don't joke around at times like this!"
"Robin? Haha~"
Robin let out a couple of chuckles.
"Haven't you figured it out yet? I am the person you want to see the most."
As soon as he finished speaking, Robin grabbed the collar with one hand and pulled it out, and the entire set of clothes was peeled off with a swipe.
