Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

"Don't tell me that you interpreted the contents of the notice letter again?"

Bullock looked at Barbara who was smiling confidently and asked with a complicated expression.

Last time, Barbara used the secret of the notice letter to negotiate with Gordon to get him to agree to her participation in the work.

You won't let her guess it again this time, right?

There are so many smart detectives in the GCPD, are they all inferior to a girl under twenty years old?

"To be precise, we solved it together."

Barbara replied with a natural expression, and her words seemed to include both Dean and Dick.

"Do you still have this ability?"

Brock glanced at Dick suspiciously.

He was not familiar with the talented magician from the Thaston family next to him, but he still knew about Dick.

The murder case of Dick's parents was investigated by him and Gordon together. Even the murderer Tony Zuko was imprisoned by Bullock himself, even though it was Batman and Robin who sent Tony Zuko over...

In short, Bullock is more or less an acquaintance of Dick. He heard that Dick had many girlfriends in school, like a playboy, almost like Bruce No. 2.

Although having more girlfriends is not a bad thing, but with Bruce's past experience, Bullock still can't connect Dick with the matter of "interpreting Kidd's notice letter".

"Is this surprising, Harvey? I'm going to be the best cop in the world."

Dick snorted softly.

"Uncle Bullock, you'd better let us go to the exhibition hall to see my father quickly, otherwise we will leave now and you can slowly figure out how to unlock the notice letter."

Barbara crossed her arms and urged confidently.

"Chief Bullock, I am Dean Thaston. I have studied magic. I heard that Kaitou Kidd is also good at using magic to commit crimes. Maybe I can be of some help."

Dean also stood up.

"...Okay, okay, I admit defeat, come with me."

Bullock nodded helplessly and led the three of them towards the 'Hope Blue Diamond' exhibition hall, sighing inwardly as they walked.

"Are all the kids in Gotham so awesome now?"

When he passed through the blockade and was about to arrive at the entrance of the exhibition hall, Dean glanced sideways at the guards around him.

This glance really made him realize that something was wrong. From the cuffs or collars of the outer layer of normal police uniforms, and the exposed corners of the inner clothing, he could see that these guards were all wearing down jackets at this time!

Is it that cold in April in Gotham?

Dean, who was only wearing a thin coat, wondered in his heart.

However, his doubts did not last long. The moment he approached the door of the exhibition hall, Dean suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from the door.

"Is there a refrigerator in here?"

Dean stared at the exhibition hall, lost in thought.

"Be careful, it's very cold inside."

Bullock reminded him, opened the curtain at the door and walked in.

Barbara and Dick exchanged vague glances, nodded to each other, and followed into the exhibition hall.

Dean followed.

As soon as he entered the exhibition hall, Dean felt only one feeling all over his body: cold.

It was as cold as walking into an ice cellar.

And he actually saw a piece of ice.

In this independent exhibition hall of about ten square meters, a huge ice cube more than three meters high stood in the center. Refrigerators were installed at several corners to keep the temperature in the exhibition hall at a very low range.

Although it is not as exaggerated as to drop to zero, it is completely enough to prevent the ice cubes from melting for a long time, at least to survive the daily exhibition time.

Although this piece of ice is very large, it has almost no impurities or air bubbles. It is crystal clear as a whole, and the transparency is so high that you can clearly see what is behind it through the ice.

And in the center of this piece of ice, there is a dazzling blue diamond frozen.

Needless to say, this is the only real owner in the exhibition hall - the legendary 'Hope Blue Diamond'.

Near the ice, four people were talking about something.

Three of them are Gordon, Director Aoife and Bisca from the Smithsonian Museum. The last one is a heroic woman with sunglasses on her face and smart and tight tactical clothing. Look at her appearance. He is a figure similar to a bodyguard.

This woman stood behind Bisca, opposite Gordon and Director Offee. She was probably from the Smithsonian Museum.

"Come on, put this on."

At this time, Dean suddenly heard Bullock's voice and turned around to see that Bullock had brought three sets of thermal clothing.

There are more thermal clothing placed in the cabinet behind Bullock, which seems to be specially prepared for visitors entering the exhibition hall.

After taking the clothes and putting them on outside, the cold feeling was quickly replaced by warmth.

"Harvey! What are you doing? It's not even opening time yet, who asked you to let people in?"

The exhibition hall was so small that four people walked in at once. As long as Gordon was not blind, it was impossible not to miss them. He immediately glared at Bullock and asked.

"Believe me, Jim, I don't want them in more than you do, but you have such a smart daughter."

Bullock replied, and then repeated what Barbara just said.

"What! Barbara unlocked the notice letter again?"

Gordon quickly came over and asked.

"Correction, the three of us worked together to solve it."

Barbara emphasized.

"For God's sake, Barbara, didn't you promise that you would never interfere with Kaitou Kidd's affairs again?"

Gordon said with anger hidden in his eyes.

"Well, Dad, if I remember correctly, I promised not to interfere in the GCPD's handling of Kaitou Kidd's case."

Barbara shrugged.

"I didn't say I wouldn't make suggestions on the security of the exhibition hall."

As soon as she finished speaking, she bypassed Gordon and walked directly towards Bisca and Director Aoife.

"I'm sorry for letting you see the scene just now. My name is Barbara Gordon. I am Director Gordon's daughter. I am here to tell you the time when Kaito Kidd committed the crime, as well as some suggestions that may be helpful. .”

Barbara took the lead in introducing herself to Bisca and others, and then talked about the idea of ​​cracking the notice letter.

"Kid's preview letter this time uses tarot card knowledge..."

Dean and Dick also wanted to follow Barbara, but were stopped on the spot by Gordon.

"Richard Grayson, the adopted son of the Wayne family, and Dean Thaston, a magician who became famous at a young age."

Gordon looked at the two of them warily and said, "I have never noticed that, since when did my daughter become so familiar with you?"

"Tell me, what is your relationship with Barbara? Especially you, Richard Grayson!"

Dean and Dick looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

"Don't be too hard on them, Jim."

Bullock came over and patted Dean and Dean on the shoulders, and said to Gordon.

"They just want to help."
