Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Dean waved his hands and brushed off the topic.

As soon as he finished speaking, Dick came up with another question.

"For example, when will you get a girlfriend?"

Dean's mouth twitched and he said angrily: "Why are you curious about this kind of thing? I have no plans to fall into a childish romance with a high school girl in the short term."

"Gee, what you are saying now is like an antique from a century ago. Come on, times have changed a long time ago! If you don't have a love affair in high school, you won't be able to have love when you go to college, because everyone's experience is different. More than you.”

Dick crossed his arms and said seriously: "You must at least learn to identify what kind of girl is a good girl. I don't want to see my good friend being deceived."

"Oh, I'm not stupid enough to be deceived without knowing it. Besides, the Saston family is a traditional family. My parents only met after graduating from college. They were each other's first love. Of course I also It’s time to continue the family tradition.”

Dean made up a reason casually.

"It's up to you, it's really hopeless."

Dick shook his head helplessly.

After a while, people on the lawn found that Dean was nowhere to be found. The high enthusiasm slowly dropped, and the campus dance was back on track.

But because it was getting very late now and most people had plans for the night, many people went home directly.

This also includes Dean and Dick.

The former needs to consider the next course of action, while the latter needs to conduct a routine night patrol.

-

Late night at the pier.

"what!"

Just hearing a sharp shout, Dick kicked out the last kick.

At this time, he had already put on Robin's uniform, and seventeen people fell beside him. Everyone's body was full of bruises and they were lying on the ground dying.

Not long ago, this was a drug dealing scene, which Dick happened to witness.

"These drug dealers are members of the Thorne Gang. It seems that Rubeus Thorne has become restless again..."

Dick thought to himself as he tied the group of people securely with ropes.

Dudu!

At this moment, Dick suddenly found that his cell phone vibrated in his pocket.

After he confirmed that the rope was tied tightly, he fired the hook lock gun towards the opposite warehouse.

After reaching the top of the warehouse, Dick took out his mobile phone and found that it was a video call from Titan Tower.

"Call Robin, can you hear me?"

After connecting, a green-eyed beauty with wheat-colored skin and long fiery red hair appeared in front of Dick.

"spark?"

After seeing the person in the picture, Dick's face showed a hint of joy, but he restrained himself and did not show it.

"You contacted me suddenly. Did something happen to the Titans?"

"No, everyone was having a great time, and Titan Tower was as noisy as ever."

Starfire shook her head and said.

"I'm contacting you to ask, when are you going to go back to Titan Tower? In the past, you would come to Titan Tower every weekend, but now you haven't been back for two months. Without you, everyone is like It’s like there’s no backbone.”

"We need you, Robin, and I need you too."

Chapter 78 Hope Blue Diamond Restores Exhibition

"Believe me, Starfire, I want to see you too. I've been thinking about you all the time these past two months."

Dick said lovingly to Starfire.

"If possible, I would like to fly to Titan Tower in the Batfighter to find you right now...but-"

"The current situation in Gotham doesn't allow me to leave now."

Dick shook his head helplessly.

"Batman went on a secret mission with the Justice League. He has been out of touch for several months and may not even be on Earth. No one knows when they will come back."

"In other words, the only people who can protect Gotham during this period are me and Batgirl. You must know that Batgirl has just entered this industry. She has great potential, but her current experience is too little to be able to cope with Brother Those extremely vicious super criminals."

"Also, a new criminal has recently appeared in Gotham who calls himself the Phantom Thief. I always feel that he hides many secrets."

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I'll have to stay in Gotham until Batman comes back."

After hearing Dick's words, Starfire lowered her head in disappointment.

"Well, Robin, I heard you were going on spring break and I thought we could see each other more..."

After a pause, Starfire suddenly raised her head and asked, "Maybe I can take the Titans to Gotham to help? If the situation in Gotham is so bad, wouldn't it be better to have a few more people to help?"

"What? Let the Titans come to Gotham? Of course not!"

Hearing this, Dick's emotions immediately became excited, "You don't understand Gotham. If you mess around here, it will only cause huge disasters! Believe me, the Titans are not ready to face this city yet."

Starfire was taken aback by Dick's reaction, and Dick's face softened quickly when he realized this.

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness, Starfire, but don't worry, I can handle everything here."

"I promise you, as soon as Batman comes back, I will go to Titan Tower to see you as soon as possible."

Dick assured Starfire.

"After living on Earth for so long, I still can't understand the thoughts of you humans."

Starfire sighed, worried.

Yes, although Starfire's body shape is not much different from that of humans, she is not from Earth.

Her real name is Corianda, and she comes from a planet called Tamaran in the galaxy. She was once a little princess of the Tamaran people.

The reason why I say once is because the current Tamaran civilization has been destroyed, and only a small number of people are scattered throughout the galaxy. Spark came to Earth when he was fleeing.

The day she came to Earth, she happened to meet Dick leading the Teen Titans on patrol. She was rescued by Dick and others, and she became a member of the Teen Titans.

It was precisely because of that incident that Starfire and Dick formed their initial bond, which later gradually developed into a passionate relationship.

This was also Dick's longest love affair.

For Starfire, he cut off contact with almost all his ex-girlfriends.

Although the combination of Starfire, who is 1.93 meters tall, and Dick, who is only 1.78 meters tall, may not look harmonious...

All in all, after hanging up the call, Dick stared blankly in the direction of New York. At this time, the Titan Tower was located on Manhattan Island in New York.

Dick didn't lie to Starfire. He really wanted to return to Titans Tower as soon as possible, not just for Starfire. Compared to fighting criminals in Gotham, he preferred his time in the Teen Titans.

But Gotham is another responsibility for Dick, and he must stay at this moment.

"...I've delayed long enough, now it's time to have a good chat with Rubeus Thorne."

After looking at the time, Dick's expression straightened and he reentered Robin's state.

The night is still very long...

A few days later, Gotham's East End, Calculator's Mystery Shack.

O'Kilwe came here for the second time.

The difference from before was that this time he didn't knock on the door or take out the Rubik's Cube. He just stood at the door and the door of the room opened automatically.

As for why he came here again, he was naturally here to pick up the goods.

Faust deposited the Stone of Doom with Calculator, hoping that the latter would sell it on his behalf. Calculator himself was not in Gotham, and the Stone of Doom was naturally not in Gotham either.

So when he first came, O'Kilwe just negotiated the business and paid a deposit in advance, but had not yet formally paid for delivery.

"Is that the Stone of Doom in that box?"

O'Kilwe walked into the house and immediately saw an additional sealed box on the table where the monitor was placed.

The material of the box is very strange, like wood or stone, with a faint metallic luster, and there are mysterious symbols engraved on it that are incomprehensible.

At first glance, it smells like black magic.

"Yes, this is the Stone of Doom that even Faust must take seriously."

The calculator still communicates remotely through the display, and I am not here.

I just don’t know how he transported the box here.

"As a reminder, if you don't want to die, don't open the box."

The calculator reminded.

"That box is a container used by Faust to suppress the magic power of the Stone of Doom. Whoever opens the box first and directly contacts the stone inside will suffer the bad luck of death."

Although he heard that the box had the effect of suppressing magic power, Ogilvy was still hesitant to go up and pick up the box directly at first.

"I have received the final payment from Penguin. You can take the Stone of Doom away directly now."

After saying that, the calculator didn't care whether Okiervi took the box away, directly disconnected the server here, and the monitor automatically turned off.

O'Kilwe looked at the box containing the Stone of Doom on the table, was silent for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and walked over to carefully pick up the box.

Nothing happened.

O'Kilwe breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left the calculator hut.

The next day, a piece of news once again occupied the headlines of major newspapers.

A few days ago, it was announced that the Hope Blue Diamond Exhibition would be canceled, but now it has plans to exhibit again!

As we all know, the Hope Blue Diamond is a world-famous "bad luck diamond". All its owners died mysteriously until it was donated to the Smithsonian Museum in Washington.

So far, it has a history of nearly half a century.

Although the so-called legend of death and doom is mostly fabricated for the sake of hype, this does not prevent it from becoming one of the most famous diamonds in the world.

Interestingly, during this time in Gotham, there happened to be a Kaitou Kidd who was obsessed with stealing gems and was active.

I hope Blue Diamond is so famous that Kaitou Kidd will definitely be eyeing it with his habits.

I just don’t know if the name of Hope Blue Diamond’s misfortune can deter this Phantom Thief?

(I don’t know how many people ran away after writing these chapters of excessive daily life. I laughed and cried. Mainly writing cases continuously is too tiring. If you don’t buffer it, the grapefruit will be squeezed out sooner or later, but it is over now)

Chapter 79 A Mysterious Woman

3 month 15 day.

Gotham City, Offee Jewelry Exhibition Hall.

In the curator's office, two people were sitting on the sofa having a face-to-face meeting.

One of them is a middle-aged man in a suit, and opposite him is a woman in smart business attire.

The former is Danilo Offee, the curator of the Offee Jewelry Exhibition Hall, and the latter is Bisca Cornell, the person in charge of loaning the 'Hope Blue Diamond' to Gotham for exhibition at the Smithsonian Museum.

"Welcome to Gotham, Miss Cornell from the Smithsonian."

Curator Ao Fei, a landowner, took the lead in greeting him warmly.

"You are welcome, curator Offi. I am here to discuss the security details of the exhibition with your museum. I hope you don't think I am too wordy. We have absolutely no intention of interfering with your museum's work."

Bisca had a formulaic polite smile on her face and her posture was very low.

"Easy to say, a treasure as precious as the 'Hope Blue Diamond' must be well protected, no matter how much attention is paid to the details."

Curator Ao Fei nodded repeatedly, his attitude was very sincere.

This is not surprising. As the organizer of the exhibition of 'Hope Blue Diamond', if anything happens to 'Hope Blue Diamond', all the responsibility will fall on him. He may even lose his fortune and not even be able to compensate.

As for whether you can buy theft insurance... Just kidding!Which insurance company dares to sell insurance in Gotham?I'm afraid it's not obvious that I want to cheat insurance.

Logically speaking, a world-famous gem like the 'Hope Blue Diamond' will be snapped up by major museums or exhibition halls no matter where it is borrowed for exhibition. Many famous venues have no way to spend money to borrow it.

However, when we arrived in Gotham, the situation took a 180-degree turn. The Hope Blue Diamond seemed to have become a hot potato, and no major museum was willing to take it over.

So much so that the Smithsonian Museum had to temporarily announce the termination of the Gotham exhibition plan.
