Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

The Riddler stopped Penguin, stared at him and asked, "Tell me, who is this person?"

"He calls himself Kaitou Kidd, a thief who likes to impress people."

Penguin turned around slightly and said, there was a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, which fell into the Riddler's eyes, but it was not directed at him.

"You don't need to take this person to heart, Nygma, because you will never have the chance to meet him again in ten days..."

Chapter 47: GCPD’s temporary advisor to Kaito Kidd?

At the Gotham Museum of Natural History, after Barbara hung up the call with Dick, she went straight to where Gordon was.

The monitoring center located on the top floor of the cultural relics exhibition hall.

When she first arrived at the monitoring room, she was stopped by several guards at the door.

"Sorry, Miss Gordon, no one can go in without the director's order."

Barbara was not surprised. She was not a security officer and should not have been hanging around here in the first place. The reason why she was not driven away immediately was because the other party was doing it for the sake of her director's daughter.

"I have something very important to tell my dad face to face. Can you please go in and talk to him? My dad usually turns off his cell phone when he is working, so I can't contact him."

Barbara smiled and asked several guards.

"It's really a very important thing, related to Kaitou Kidd's notice letter."

As soon as they heard the word Kaitou Kidd, the guards' eyes suddenly changed and they looked at each other.

"If it's Commissioner Gordon's daughter, she's probably not here to play a prank. And since we didn't put the person in directly, it doesn't count as disobeying the order."

As the discussion of Kaito Kidd in Gotham is increasing day by day, every notice sent out has aroused heated discussions, and various interpretations have emerged one after another.

These days, there are many people who claim to the GCPD that they have unlocked the notice letter, but their interpretation ideas often make people feel wrong as soon as they open their mouths, and do not conform to basic logic at all.

Over time, whenever the guards heard someone say that they had solved Kidd's warning letter, they would usually drive him away.

But the person who said this now was Barbara Gordon, the daughter of her immediate boss.

Can you just drive people away without asking any questions?

A guard opened the door and walked into the control room to report to Gordon.

After a while, Gordon hurried out of it and asked as he walked.

"Barbara, are you saying that you have unlocked the contents of the notice letter? If I know that you are joking and obstructing official business, then I will never let you attend those late-night karate training classes again."

"Dad, think about it carefully, when did I lie to you when you were working?"

Barbara raised her eyebrows and put her hands on her hips.

"Then tell me what information you have solved? If you are right, I will never complain about your frequent change of computers."

Seeing that his daughter was so confident, Gordon immediately asked and promised benefits.

He did not doubt whether Barbara was capable enough to unlock the notice letter. As a father, Gordon knew very well how smart his daughter was. In fact, when Barbara was in college, she majored in not library management but Stuff like forensics, psychology, cryptography, and computer science.

Initially, Barbara wanted to follow in her father's footsteps and become a police officer.

The reason why she is now reduced to being a salty librarian in the library is simply because Gordon was firmly opposed to letting Barbara become a police officer at that time, and his opposition was extremely strong.

He even used his connections to get Barbara's admission to the police academy to be rejected because her height did not meet the standard.

In a fit of rage, Barbara switched to librarianship and eventually earned a Ph.D.

For a long time in the future, father and daughter were in a state of cold war...

All in all, Gordon trusted Barbara's personal abilities.

Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that his daughter was walking on this path in another way.

Barbara did not disappoint Gordon, and spoke endlessly about the process of interpreting the notice letter.

"If 20 multiplied by 3 equals 4,

Then I will come at a time that does not exist,

When Mars passed his tenth day and night,

Following the guidance of Caesar,

Come and worship the blood-stained dragon eggs. "

"The meaning of the first sentence is to bring our thinking into Roman numerals. Since there is no zero in Roman numerals, we can infer that the time that does not exist is zero point. In the second sentence, Mars refers to March , spent the tenth day and night on March 3th. There is a sculpture of Julius Caesar in the ancient Rome special exhibition hall, pointing in the direction of the jungle exhibition hall, this is the guidance of Julius Caesar."

After a pause, Barbara continued: "To sum up, Kaitou Kidd will appear in the jungle pavilion at midnight on March 3th, which is equivalent to midnight on March 11th, and start from there. Take action and steal Mrs. Chandler’s dragon egg ruby ​​necklace.”

Barbara finished speaking in one breath, and several guards around her were stunned for a long time before they regained their composure.

"Hiss - I feel like what Miss Gordon said makes sense!"

"How can it be so simple as to make sense? I think that's what Kidd's notice letter means!"

"As expected of the director's daughter, we have been thinking about it for several days and have no clue, but they have already solved everything."

The guards praised him sincerely.

Ignoring the compliments from his subordinates, Gordon thought over Barbara's statement in his mind, and revealed a happy smile after finding that there were indeed no loopholes.

With the accurate time of Kaitou Kidd's action, the GCPD can take targeted security measures without having to deploy high-intensity defenses for fifteen consecutive days.

This can not only save a lot of waste of police resources, but also prevent subordinates from being too tired and always maintain high mental and action capabilities.

"I have a request, and I hope you can agree to it, Dad."

At this time, Barbara suddenly straightened her face and revealed the true purpose of her trip.

"I want to join the capture of Phantom Thief Kidd as a temporary consultant or detective."

"What? No, this is too dangerous, I don't agree!"

Gordon rejected Barbara's offer without thinking.

"Dad! You have just seen my value. I can help you. You didn't agree with me being a police officer before. Now I just want to help. Why do you reject me?"

Barbara insisted that of course she didn't really want to be the temporary consultant of the GCPD, but there was just one thing that would be more convenient to do in this capacity.

"Kaitou Kidd never kills anyone, and he never even actively hurts anyone. What danger would I be in?"

Gordon was still hesitating on his face, but Barbara started to say harsh words when she saw this.

"If you don't agree for me to act with you, I will come by myself that day. You can't stop me from entering the museum."

"Okay, you convinced me, but only this time, and you are not allowed to leave my sight! And you are not allowed to hinder other people's work!"

In desperation, Gordon had no choice but to nod in agreement, and finally made a three-part agreement.

At this point, Barbara got her wish and got into the GCPD security team. Although her actions were restricted by Gordon, this was enough for her.

And on the other side, Gotham High.

The day's class was coming to an end. During this day, Dean often felt strange eyes staring at him from behind.

Dean knew that the owner of that gaze was Dick, and he had begun to doubt his identity.

From now on, you must be more cautious in every move you make.

Chapter 48 Dinner at Wayne Manor

After school, Dean packed his schoolbag as usual and was about to leave school when Dick, who was sitting behind him, suddenly stopped him.

"Hey! Dean, wait a minute."

Dean turned back to look at him and asked strangely: "What's the matter?"

"This may be a bit abrupt to ask, but...are you free tonight?"

Dick scratched his head and hesitated.

"Uh...can I say no?"

Dean's eyelids twitched wildly.

"Actually, I plan to invite you to have dinner at Wayne Manor and talk about the school dance performance before spring break. You know, the only talent I know is aerial acrobatics, but that is too dangerous and requires professionalism. The venue is not suitable for performing in schools."

Dick coughed twice and confessed.

"So, I was wondering if I could ask you to teach me some interesting magic tricks to please the girls."

After listening to Dick's explanation, Dean showed a look of realization, and then stared at him with disdain.

"I understand, but if you want to have fun with the girls at the prom, aren't you afraid of being seen by your girlfriend? By the way, who is your current girlfriend, Raya? Elton ? Corrie? Or Jenny? Maybe all of them? I haven’t felt this way usually, but now that I think about it, Dick, you are such a scumbag.”

"Hehehehe! Don't always say such old-fashioned things, okay? Now is the era of free love. It's normal to break up and get back together! I didn't do anything wrong, what's wrong with me? What you said is like me It’s very strange.”

Dick defended himself, and then looked at Dean with disdain.

"You are the real weirdo who has almost graduated from high school and hasn't had a girlfriend yet."

"I really can't figure it out. So many girls have confessed to you, why don't you try to pick a few and get along well with them?"

At this point, Dick looked Dean up and down suspiciously.

"You shouldn't be..."

"shut up!"

Dean's head was filled with dark clues, and he immediately shouted to stop.

In the years since he traveled back in time, almost 90% of his personal time has been devoted to training the Phantom Thief skills, just to get the system rewards as soon as possible and strive to survive in the big events in the future. Wherever he has the time to follow Those underage schoolgirls fall in love.

"Relax man, I was just kidding."

Dick quickly put on a smile, then looked at Dean expectantly and said: "The campus dance is scheduled for March 3th. There is not much time left for me to prepare for the performance project, so please come to my house today to give me a performance." I’ll let Alfred cook a nice dinner as a thank you.”

"We have been friends for so many years, can you help us?"

"..."

Dean was silent for a few seconds, and finally shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, I will teach you a few simple and practical magic tricks, but your meal must satisfy me."

"Well, before I go, I'll go home and get some magic props..."

Before he could finish speaking, Dick interrupted directly.

"No need! There are many replaceable things in Wayne Manor. Time is precious. Let's go directly now. Alfred should have already driven over to pick me up."

Dick grabbed Dean and ran towards the school gate without giving Dean a chance to speak.

Dean, who was pulled forward by Dick, narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't believe that Dick suddenly invited him to Wayne Manor just to learn magic.

Dick is Robin, Batman's disciple who has been trained step by step. Does he need to be taught the magic he uses to pick up girls? Even if it is not as good as a magician who specializes in this art, it is more than enough to deceive the little girls in school who know nothing.

It was obvious that Dick was testing himself, although it was not yet certain how Dick planned to test.

Dean's face remained calm, pretending that he didn't know anything, and his mind was constantly simulating what might happen next and how to deal with it.

At the door, Alfred had indeed stopped early next to a luxury car, waiting for Dick to appear.

When he saw the two of them, Dean noticed a moment of surprise in Alfred's eyes when he saw him.

Obviously, he had no idea that Dick was testing Dean.

"It seems like the person who doubts my identity is Batgirl, as long as Batman is not back."

Dean thought to himself.

When Dean eavesdropped on Dick's call before, he could not determine the specific identity of the other party because he could not eavesdrop on Dick's voice wearing headphones.

Even if Alfred is ruled out through Dick's words alone, it cannot be immediately confirmed that it is Batgirl.

Because the possibility of Batman suddenly coming back cannot be ruled out. The Justice League has the only space teleportation technology on earth. Batman can return to Gotham anytime and anywhere without any warning.

Dean really didn't want to face DC's biological father who was touted by countless people in his previous life so early.

The good news is that it is now certain that if Batman is doubting himself, Alfred will definitely know about his plan to let Dick test him, and may even be an important part of the plan.

Then Alfred couldn't have been surprised the moment he saw him. Even if he was surprised, it must have been a fake surprise after the contact.

The question now is, why does Batgirl doubt herself?

Dean thought in his mind, not even Dick, who had the most contact with him, had ever doubted him.

How could a Batgirl whom she had never even met think he was suspicious?

This kind of suspicion cannot come out of thin air. In Gotham City, there are at least twenty professional magicians who meet Kaid's qualifications, and there are even more amateur street magicians who can't be counted. What basis does Bat Girl have for suspecting Kidd? On my body?
