It is normal for him to be discriminated against and ostracized by veteran members such as Mr. Mosaic. Judging from logic, Okierwe's words are reasonable and there is no doubt.
The most important thing is that Okierwei temporarily took over the power of the Penguin Gang in the past two days.
Francine Langstone's kidnapping and Tom's trip to Arkham Asylum both happened a month ago. At that time, the Penguin was still there and O'Kilway was just his secretary.
If the person who instigated Tom to kidnap Francine was Mr. Mosaic, it is possible that O'Kilwe had no right to intervene.
These thoughts went through Batman's mind quickly, and he had a plan in mind.
"what!"
Batman casually threw O'Kilwe to the side, and the latter hit the floor hard and couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.
“I will come again.”
After leaving the words saying he would come back, Batman's figure hid in the shadows of the room and suddenly disappeared, like a ghost.
"Hmm~"
O'Kilwe, who was on the ground, shook his head twice, stood up shakily, and then cautiously looked around the room.
It wasn't until he confirmed that Batman was really gone that he came to the window and closed it tightly, with a look of fear on his face and he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when O'Kilwe closed the window and turned around, the expression on his face made a 180-degree turn.
All panic and fear were gone, replaced by a cold face with a contemptuous smile.
What he did in front of Batman just now was all faked by him.
Tap tap tap tap...
At this moment, a burst of footsteps came from outside the door, accompanied by another unfamiliar voice.
"You really act like that, Emperor Penguin."
O'Kilwe turned to the door, and what came into view was the man in Batman's photo - Tom!
"Didn't I ask you not to come to see me casually?"
Seeing Tom, O'Kilwe's face suddenly darkened.
"If Mosaic finds out about our relationship, then my plan will be completely ruined! Now is the most critical time of the plan, and there must be no mistakes!"
"Hmph! Don't worry, Mosaic won't be suspicious. I'm a staff member of the Iceberg Club. Is there any problem with coming to see the person in charge of the Iceberg Club during working hours?"
Tom sneered.
"I just came here to ask, is the deal between us still standing? You promised me that you would kill Kaitou Kidd with my own hands."
"Of course, as long as I continue according to my plan, Kaito Kidd will definitely die in your hands."
O'Kilwe said with determination.
"Last night I wanted to kill Kaitou Kidd in Wayne Tower, but you told me that the time was not right. I endured it, but the next time I have the opportunity to kill Kaitou Kidd, I will never miss it! "
Tom stared into O'Kilwe's eyes, keeping his eyes peeled.
It's hard to imagine that a small bartender and gangster would have the confidence and courage to look into the eyes of the current nominal leader of the Penguin Gang, and there was no embarrassment on O'Kilwe's face.
He was even sure of killing Kaitou Kidd!
Tom, who was just an ordinary waiter before joining the Penguin Gang, what happened to him in just a few months that caused such a big change?
Not to mention the appearance of Kaitou Kidd's enemy and Batman being induced by O'Kilwe to investigate Mr. Mosaic.
At this moment, Kidd, the thief whom Tom was thinking about, was shopping in a clothing store.
Dean, who was disguised as a sexy young woman, looked at Cassandra, who was also disguised next to him, and then looked at the row of various styles of underwear in front of him, thinking to himself.
"It feels like the children's version is almost enough..."
Chapter 214 Dean’s Little Phantom Thief Class Begins
After a while, the fitting room.
Cassandra changed her clothes from inside to outside and walked out. You could see that her expression was a little twisted and her cheeks were slightly red.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve never been to a place like this before, so I’m not used to it, or if it’s just because I’m shy.
In sharp contrast, Dean, who was waiting at the door, pulled little Cassie up to the mirror standing next to him with a natural expression on his face, and kept looking at her up and down with scrutinizing eyes.
What was reflected in the mirror was a young and beautiful girl. Except for the dull expression on her face, which looked autistic, she was no different from other normal girls of the same age in the world.
At least it's no longer like before, either wearing rags all day long like a little beggar, or wearing all black like some late-night female snitch.
Cassandra is wearing a white slim-fitting shirt, a small blue jacket on the outside, and a pair of denim trousers. Although it is not a fashionable combination, it is this kind of everyday clothing that Cassandra wears. , will give people a feeling of light up.
"It's not bad. The style and size are just right. It's pretty, although it's not as good as mine."
Looking at Cassandra put on new clothes, Dean nodded with satisfaction and then came to the counter.
"Just pick these few items, including the sets over there and the underwear, and pack them all."
The direction Dean was pointing at were several sets of quite sexy long dresses, some with backs and some with off-shoulders, but there were no deep V ones. The sizes of these dresses were all for adult bodies, and they were obviously not for Cassandra. of.
These sets were actually bought for Dean himself, to be precise, they were bought for Kaito Kidd.
In the Phantom Thief's mission, it is inevitable that he will need to disguise himself as a woman. It would be fine if it was planned. But if some sudden situation forced him to disguise himself as a woman, he would have to prepare some clothes.
There's no way that every time Dean happens to meet a woman who is alone, he knocks her out and then puts on her clothes, right?
It's okay to be anxious once or twice, but it's not so good to do it frequently.
So Dean would disguise himself every once in a while and buy a batch of women's clothing in case of emergency.
After coming out of the clothing store, Dean took Cassandra to a house.
It's not the Saston Mansion, but an ordinary house located at the junction of the Diamond District and the Old City.
This is a property that Dean bought using a false identity a few years ago. It is equivalent to Kidd's safe house, although it is rarely used.
"It's not convenient for you to live there at the Saston Mansion for the time being, so you can stay here for the time being, Cassian."
Dean looked at Cassandra and said.
"..."
Cassandra looked at Dean in shock.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to let you live and eat for free. Since you agreed to follow me for a period of time, you are now my temporary assistant. You must not hold back in my actions in the future."
Dean shook his finger.
"Why did you choose me to be your assistant?"
Cassandra suddenly raised her head and made gestures.
"Because I need an assistant I can trust."
Dean answered matter-of-factly.
"If you think about it, Batman has Robin and Batgirl, Superman has Supergirl, The Flash has Kid Flash, Aquaman has Aquaman and Aqualad, Wonder Woman has Wonder Girl, even Martian Manhunter has Martian Girl, Of course I need an assistant too.”
"That's not what I meant. What I want to ask is why me? Why do you trust me so much?"
"I can confirm whether you are lying to me, so I am willing to trust you, but what about you? Aren't you worried that I will reveal your information to others?"
"You will not."
Dean said with certainty.
"Because I also have evidence of your murder, you are also worried that I will expose your secret, aren't you? Even though you know that I will never do this."
"Why do I trust you so much? If you really need a reason, it is that we all hold our own secrets, and we all need to keep them secret. Instead of being suspicious of each other, it is better to cooperate and win-win. How about this reason?"
Dean said this very philistinely, showing a face that only values interests.
"I know this is not what you mean."
Cassandra shook her head calmly.
"It doesn't matter whether you are telling the truth or not, it is an objective fact after all."
Dean chuckled.
"Think about it from another angle, so what if I don't trust you? You will always be able to see through my identity, even from a distance that I can't detect. If you really want to expose me, I have a way Stopping you? No."
No, you do.
Cassandra secretly thought in her heart, she didn’t know why, but she just sensed some extraordinary confidence from Dean, a confidence that was beyond her understanding, as if Dean was always confident no matter how big of a problem he encountered. There is a way to solve it smoothly.
Although Cassandra didn't know the source of that confidence, she could conclude that it was not mindless arrogance, and Dean definitely had something to rely on.
The conversation suddenly stopped.
Dean's face was calm and composed, and without any explanation he pulled Cassandra into the house and closed the doors and windows.
Even with Cassandra by his side, Dean still did not restrain his cautious habits. He repeatedly checked the environment inside and outside the house before he felt relieved.
Immediately afterwards, Dean took Cassandra to the basement. The basement here did not have secret passages and dark rooms like the Thaston mansion, nor did it look like a warehouse where Kaid's commonly used equipment was stored.
Instead, there were rows of magic props, as well as some very strange targets and objects with no apparent purpose. The whole thing looked like a magic practice room.
"Kashan, I know you have a strong fighting ability, but in our line of work, it is meaningless to fight alone. We neither need to defeat the bad guys nor defeat the good guys. It is true that sometimes fighting is inevitable, but then It’s not our main scope of work.”
As soon as he entered the practice room, Dean's expression changed instantly, and he emphasized to Cassandra expressionlessly.
"So... you need to learn some skills other than fighting, such as magic, lock picking, pickpocketing, passwords, and disguise... With your talent, I believe you can learn the essence of them all in a few days."
Cassandra listened to Dean's words carefully.
There were only two times in her life when she was so serious, one was when she was trained by her father David Cain as a child, and the other was when Barbara taught her to read.
"Let's start with the basics. Use a pin to pick the lock first. Don't leave any traces of picking the lock."

Chapter 215 The end of the big event and the new beginning
A few days later, Gotham.
Although the leak of the Man-Bat Virus was resolved in just one night, just one night was enough to leave indelible scars on Gotham.
More than a thousand people died in the crazy rampage of countless mutant bats, and many more people lost family members or friends.
In contrast to this painful atmosphere, Kaito Kidd's popularity and reputation in Gotham have reached new heights.
If Kaito Kidd hadn't used the Chocrat device to eliminate the Man-Bat Virus in time, the number of deaths would have been astronomical.
People regard him as a not-so-heroic hero who saved the city.
Although Kaitou Kidd himself does not consider himself a hero.
But how many people can know the true thoughts of Kaitou Kidd?
What's more, even if they knew, I'm afraid they would still treat the Phantom Thief like a hero.
Such unprecedented popularity has spawned a large number of information and articles related to Kaitou Kidd, including serious news reports and random fabrications by Internet editors.
Even some completely unrelated content carries Kaitou Kid's name to gain popularity.
"A thief becomes a hero?" Take you into the secret past of Kaitou Kidd! 》
"do you know? Ten life hacks that even Kaitou Kidd is using! 》
"What is the relationship between the mysterious girl who saved Kaitou Kidd and Kaitou Kidd?" The secret of the love story of the Phantom Thieves! 》
"A snack shop printed the image of Phantom Thief on the potato chip packaging without authorization, but the Kaito Kidd fan support association sued the court for infringement? 》
……
Such outrageous news spread all over the world and spread widely through the Internet, so much so that after a long time, Kaitou Kidd's love story became the most talked about gossip.
At this moment, in a dilapidated old building in Gotham.
A voice that contained anger came out.
"Hero... Kaitou Kidd? He deserves to be called a hero!"
I saw Tom holding a newspaper in his hand, with stern eyes and a fierce look on his face.
"Kaitou Kid is just a shameless thief who doesn't care about the lives of others for his own selfish desires! If it weren't for him, how could I have lost my job and been reduced to hanging out with the gangsters I originally avoided? to the point.”
"I obviously did nothing wrong? Why did I lose my job in the end? Why did Kaitou Kidd beat me unconscious? How can a guy like this who ignores the consequences and acts willfully qualify to be called a hero?"
