Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 63 I caught you!

Who else could the person squatting on the glass cabinet be but Kaitou Kidd?

Gordon and others imagined all the places where Kidd might appear, but they never expected that he would appear on the glass cabinet where the necklace was stored!

How can this be?

There was no vent above the glass cabinet, and there were more than a dozen special police officers surrounding it. How did he land on the glass cabinet silently?

Could it be that Kaitou Kidd can't teleport?

Okay, it made a little noise when it finally came down, but that didn't matter.

More importantly than this, how did Kaitou Kidd take out the necklace from the glass cabinet?

From the appearance, the glass cabinet did not suffer obvious damage, but the dragon egg ruby ​​necklace inside appeared in the hands of Kaitou Kidd.

That's ultra-high-strength glass produced by Lex Group, which is rarely shattered in metropolitan areas!

How could Kaitou Kidd take away the necklace inside through the glass cover?

It’s incredible!

"Oops! Sorry, I didn't expect to make such an obvious noise. I'm sorry to have disturbed you."

On the glass cabinet, Kaitou Kid scratched the back of his head and smiled apologetically.

"Kaitou Kidd!"

As Gordon shouted, all the police in the exhibition hall raised their guns at the same time, aiming at Kaitou Kidd.

As for the dozen special police officers surrounding the glass cabinet, they stared at him with ferocious beast-like eyes, as if they would pounce on him and tear him to pieces in the next second.

"Wow, you just aimed at me and didn't fire immediately?"

Being pointed at by dozens of dark guns and facing the gazes of more than a dozen tough men, Kaito Kidd did not show a panicked expression. Instead, he looked at Gordon with strange eyes and smiled calmly.

"I guess you must have given them an order in advance not to fire at will, Director Gordon. It seems that I have to thank you for saving my life."

Suddenly, Gordon noticed that there seemed to be a black rope wrapped around Kid's waist.

Follow the rope vertically upward until about ten centimeters closer to the ceiling, and there is another rope fixed horizontally to the walls on both sides.

Obviously, Kaitou Kidd climbed up to the top of the glass cabinet little by little through the horizontal rope in the blind spot of everyone's sight, and then used the vertical rope to descend to the glass cabinet.

As for why the cloak did not fall off due to gravity when he crawled under the rope, that is an unsolved mystery.

Moreover, this still doesn't explain how Kaitou Kidd took out the necklace from the glass cabinet.

"No one but me should open fire without authorization!"

Gordon raised his hand and accurately shot the rope above Kidd. At the same time, he loudly reminded his subordinates not to shoot indiscriminately just because they heard the sound of gunfire.

"Kaitou Kidd, put down the necklace quickly, you have no way to escape now!"

Listening to Gordon's warning, Kaito Kidd nodded slightly. The monocle on his right eye suddenly reflected a strange reflection, making his entire face blurry.

At the same time, Kaitou Kid's hand that scratched the back of his head suddenly threw out several spheres.

boom!

The sphere exploded instantly when it fell, and a thick cloud of smoke quickly spread outwards, soon covering the space within ten meters with the glass cabinet as the center.

Looking at this momentum, the entire exhibition hall will be filled with thick smoke in less than ten seconds.

A circle of special police officers under Kaitou Kidd saw that the situation was not good, and before Gordon's order came, they subconsciously stretched out their hands to attack Kaitou Kidd's calves.

Kaitou Kidd seemed to have foreseen this. A second before the SWAT police launched their attack, he made a jump in advance and just stepped on the SWAT police's hand to use his strength to jump out of the encirclement.

After falling to the ground, Kaitou Kidd took out a gas mask from somewhere and immediately put it on his face.

Before more than a dozen special police officers could react, a deep sense of sleepiness and paralysis swept over them.

After taking a few staggering steps, he fell to the ground.

Except for the special police officers, the other police officers who were closer also fell to the ground one by one.

"No! This is hypnotic smoke!"

Gordon quickly covered his mouth and nose, but unfortunately, the hypnotic smoke had already spread here. He had already inhaled a lot of gas, and the picture in front of him began to become blurry.

After forcibly cheering up, Gordon stared intently at the white figure in the smoke in front of him, and moved over unsteadily.

"Caught...got you."

With faith, Gordon finally walked to Kaitou Kidd and grabbed the latter's clothes tightly.

puff--

At this moment, Kaitou Kidd, who was dragged by Gordon, suddenly made a strange muffled sound and quickly deflated like a punctured balloon.

Looking at everything that happened in front of him, Gordon's vision suddenly went dark. He could no longer hold back the surge of sleepiness and fainted on the ground.

At this moment, Kaitou Kidd walked out of the smoke next to him, squatted down and looked down at the unconscious Gordon, thinking to himself.

"I saw that you were working too hard, Commissioner Gordon, so I decided to give you a good rest. I hope that when you wake up, you won't give up on my arrest just because you are too grateful to me."

He searched Gordon's body, took out a strange-looking device, and then returned to the glass cabinet.

I saw Kaitou Kidd placing his hands on both sides of the glass cover, and then opened the glass cover with his backhand, revealing the object inside.

There is actually a glass cover underneath!

That's right, it's impossible for Kaito Kidd to retrieve objects from a distance. The glass cabinet is intact and the dragon egg ruby ​​is still lying quietly inside.

The necklace in his hand is just a fake product.

When Kaitou Kidd first landed on the glass cabinet, a special glass cover was placed on the original glass cover, making others mistakenly think that the necklace inside was missing, but in fact it was still inside.

Put the device recovered from Gordon into the socket under the glass cabinet. The high-strength glass cover that was originally closed immediately came loose, and Kidd easily took it off.

"This is the real dragon egg ruby ​​necklace."

Kaito Kidd picked up this necklace that was full of luxury. The huge ruby ​​on it, bigger than a palm, was eye-catching. It was a priceless treasure at first glance.

I don't know why, but when Kaitou Kid held this necklace in his hand, he suddenly felt a sense of transparency all over his body, an illusion that his whole body felt much lighter.

"Counting the time, Robin and the others should be here soon. I have to leave as soon as possible."

After putting the necklace away, Kaitou Kid quickly ran out of the exhibition hall.

boom!

As soon as he entered the corridor, a tongue of fire spurted out from the right without warning and swept towards Kaitou Kidd.

Chapter 64 Fireflies blocking the road

Kaitou Kidd had quick eyesight and quick hands. When the gushing flames were about to approach him, he quickly took off the cloak behind him and threw it in front of him to block the momentum of the flames.

At the same time, quickly retreat in the opposite direction.

call!

The white cloak was quickly burned in the flames.

Although Kaitou Kidd's cloak is made of very thin bulletproof material and has high protective properties, it can also be used as a shield in emergencies to temporarily block the flames from burning his body.

But that doesn't change the fact that it's still essentially combustible.

"Yes, the response is pretty quick, so it won't be too boring."

A deep man's voice came from the direction of the flames.

I saw a man in strange clothes and a full-covering hood walking over. He was holding a flamethrower in his hand and carrying a large can of fuel behind his back.

This man's hood covers his entire face. The eyes are very large and oval-shaped, like the eyes of an insect. The mouth is also equipped with a strange respirator.

And behind his uniform, there are two huge black wings on both sides of the shoulder blades, making the whole person look like an insect.

"With such distinctive clothing and weapons, you must be the Firefly who was rumored to have recently escaped from Black Gate Prison, right? Was it Penguin who asked you to come?"

Kaitou Kid asked calmly, glancing at his right hand from the corner of his eyes.

The gloves at the wrists had become charred black, and even the small patch of skin was beginning to show signs of burns.

If he had moved just half a beat slower, his entire right arm might have been set on fire by now.

"If I remember correctly, the museum's fire protection system adopts an independent power supply mode. Although I cut off the main power supply before, I did not tamper with the fire power supply."

Kaitou Kid raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling above the fireflies, where there happened to be a fire sprinkler.

"The temperature of the flame just now is very high. It is impossible that the sensor cannot be triggered. I'm afraid Penguin has already made some tricks in the fire protection system in advance. The purpose is to allow you to set fire to the maximum extent."

Firefly didn't respond, probably acquiescing to Kaitou Kidd's words.

"I originally had no interest in you, Kaitou Kidd, but because you offended someone you shouldn't have offended, I had no choice but to make you my latest work. Although my favorite thing is the burning building, but the man in flames The wailing sound in it is also a beautiful piece of music.”

At this time, Firefly said in an intoxicated tone.

"Kitd, if you try to use smoke bombs or sleeping gas to escape in front of me, I advise you to give up those stupid ideas as soon as possible."

"My flamethrower has a range of fifty meters, and your only escape route in this long and narrow corridor is the fork behind you. Unfortunately, that fork is at least twenty meters away from your current position... "

Kaitou Kid turned his head slightly and glanced at the corridor behind with the corner of his eye. The only way he could walk was the fork twenty meters away. There was no door or vent in the middle for him to hide in.

The flames emitted by the firefly's flamethrower are very hot. Even if you get within one meter of the fire flow, your clothes may be burned, and the width of this corridor is only more than four meters.

In other words, Kaitou Kidd can only dodge to the left or right, and the space where he can dodge is very small.

In fact, when he first came out of the exhibition hall and entered the corridor, Kaito Kidd could still retreat back into the exhibition hall.

But Firefly's initial attack forced him to retreat deeper into the corridor, and now Firefly was standing just outside the door of the exhibition hall.

"The situation is not good. This is the perfect place for Firefly to ambush me. He is not simple-minded. He must have studied my habits...or maybe the Penguin arranged him here?"

Kaito Kidd thought to himself.

Why haven't Robin and Batgirl arrived yet? It's not my job to deal with supervillains!

We have to find a way to delay this firefly first.

After making up his mind, Kaitou Kid put on a kind smile and said to Firefly.

"Hey, what benefits did Penguin promise to you? Maybe we can discuss it..."

Before he could finish speaking, Firefly interrupted him.

"Don't waste your time, Kaitou Kidd! I've spent too much time talking nonsense to you, and now I can't wait to watch you wailing in the flames."

As he spoke, the face under Firefly's hood revealed a sinister smile, and he immediately pulled the trigger of the flamethrower, and a raging stream of fire immediately spurted out from the muzzle.

Fortunately, Kaitou Kidd was prepared in advance. Seeing that Firefly had a wrong attitude, he immediately moved away, just in time to avoid the tongue of fire.

"Tsk! You didn't even wait for someone to finish what you said before taking action! Sure enough, the villain is indeed a villain."

Looking at the stream of fire passing dozens of centimeters away from his side, Kaitou Kid couldn't help but complain in his heart.

boom! boom! boom!

Kaitou Kidd, who escaped the fire, quickly took out his poker gun and shot several poker cards at the fireflies.

However, in the raging fire, the pure paper playing cards that flew out were ignited almost in the blink of an eye, or would be melted by the high temperature within a few seconds.

"Hahahahaha! Kaitou Kidd, are you scared out of your wits? You actually want to use playing cards to deal with the fire?"

Firefly was laughed out loud by Kid's actions. He gradually began to understand why the man in front of him dared to offend Penguin, because this guy is an out-and-out idiot!

At this moment, several playing cards that were about to be completely engulfed by the flames suddenly changed their trajectory and broke away from the flames.

These burning playing cards seemed to violate the laws of gravity. Not only did they not fall down, but they flew straight towards the ceiling!

Looking up, I saw that the direction in which these playing cards were rising was the fire sprinkler on the ceiling.

Of course, the playing cards will not fly upwards on their own initiative. Firefly looked carefully and found that each playing card was connected to a thin steel wire, and the other end of the steel wire was naturally in the hands of Kaitou Kidd.

"Hi! We know that the fire protection system has been tampered with, but we still do such meaningless things..."

Firefly is increasingly confused about what Kaitou Kid is thinking. Is this guy really a fool?

What he didn't notice was that the corners of Kaito Kid's mouth raised slightly for a moment, revealing a faint smile.

Peng!

When the burning playing cards touched the sensor of the fire sprinkler head, the sprinkler head exploded, exposing the water pipe above.
