Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

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."

Chapter 88 April st

"Chief Bullock is right, we should listen to what these young people have to say."

Suddenly, Bisca said from the side.

"But it is the job of the police to protect diamonds and arrest thieves. Ordinary citizens have no right to intervene, and it should not be their intervention."

Gordon said with a serious face, "What's more, they are still underage children. If something happens, I simply can't imagine the scene."

"What about Batman and his sidekicks?"

At this time, a rich female voice came from behind Bisca, and the person who spoke was the female bodyguard.

"Do they have the right to interfere with your police's handling of the case? Isn't Robin also a minor? And I also heard that the GCPD will take the initiative to light up the bat lantern to seek help from Batman..."

"Kylena!"

Bisca interrupted her and continued.

Then these two sentences had sufficient lethality, making Gordon's face turn blue and white, which was really ugly.

It wasn't out of anger or embarrassment, but a deep sense of powerlessness.

No one in the world understands this fact better than Gordon. The GCPD needs Batman far more than ordinary people think.

The more clear this fact becomes, the more dilemma Gordon becomes. The existence of vigilantes is a silent resistance to the local police, while the regular police have to rely on vigilantes to deal with criminals they cannot deal with.

It's both ridiculous and sad at the same time.

Gordon had no way to refute Kylena's words, nor could he give up his ideas.

"They are different from Robin, and the day I was most upset with Batman was the day Robin showed up, and I would never forgive him for dragging a child into his world."

Gordon said softly but firmly.

That's a good point, but it's a pity that the Robin you're talking about is right in front of you.

Dean complained in his mind.

If it weren't for knowing that Robin and Batgirl were here, Dean might have been touched by Gordon.

This old policeman adheres to his inner creed and has struggled in Gotham for decades without wavering. This perseverance and perseverance are truly admirable.

"I don't want to hurt you, Commissioner Gordon. I have always given full trust to the Gotham police, but the notice letter that you have been unable to solve was solved by several children. Now I still I believe in you and your police officers, but I also think these kids are unique and different from ordinary kids."

Bisca stepped forward and said: "We are not asking these children to rush to the front line to fight criminals. We are just listening to their ideas and suggestions. Maybe they can discover details that we cannot."

"You are absolutely right, Miss Kenel, thank you for your willingness to accept our help."

Barbara said happily, and then grabbed Dean.

"I would like to introduce you to Dean Thaston. Despite his young age, he is one of the most famous magicians in Gotham. Many magic masters have praised his level for his age."

"I bet he will play a very big role in dealing with Kaitou Kidd."

Dean smiled awkwardly and said, "Hello, Miss Kenel, nice to meet you."

The first person to respond to him was not Bisca, but Kylena who was behind her.

"Are you Saston? I've heard of you."

Kylena looked at Dean in surprise and said, "Tell me what you think of this exhibition hall? I'm very curious about your opinion."

"what?"

This question without warning made Dean confused for a moment.

"I forgot to tell you that Kylena is a security expert specially recruited by the Smithsonian Institution. She just returned from London. She is good at formulating various forms of protection measures. This exhibition hall was specially designed by her."

Bisca introduced.

"Also, the equipment and materials are provided by us."

On the other side, Director Aoife spoke, making his presence somewhat felt.

"So you designed this exhibition hall. Why did you freeze the diamond in ice? You even built a special refrigeration room for it."

Brock, who was behind Dean, also intervened in the conversation.

"Well, I want to hear Mr. Saston's thoughts first, and explain why he does this from the perspective of a magician."

Kylena smiled slightly.

Dean stretched out his hand and touched his chin, and said with a serious expression: "To be honest, I don't like the low temperature in this exhibition hall. In other words, no magician would like the low temperature environment."

"As we all know, technique is a very important part of magic, and what determines this is the flexibility of the fingers."

Having said this, Dean stretched out his other hand and grabbed it twice with his long and delicate fingers.

"In a lower temperature environment, the hands will become stiff, resulting in a serious reduction in flexibility. Even if you are wearing thermal clothing, if your hands are still exposed, the flexibility of your fingers will still be affected."

"For magicians who strive for excellence, as long as there is a slight difference in the flexibility of the fingers, many techniques will cause strong discomfort when implemented, and the possibility of exposing flaws will also be greatly increased."

"Putting diamonds in ice will further intensify the effects of the cold, and the solidity of such a large piece of ice cannot be underestimated. Even with a flamethrower, it will be difficult to melt it in a short time."

"Furthermore, this also meets the requirements of public exhibitions that the audience must clearly see the diamond but at the same time not get too close. It is a very genius idea, and it is much more reliable than sending a dozen people to surround the exhibition cabinet."

As soon as he said this, Bullock's old face suddenly turned red.

"What's more, this is a very small space. After all, the number of people who can come in at one time is limited. There are few blind spots in the viewing angle that can be used. It is easier to be discovered if you blend in with the crowd."

After listening to Dean's speech, Kylena nodded with satisfaction.

"Well said, I designed this showroom based on this."

She smiled confidently and said, "In addition to the cold, the diamonds in the ice are also equipped with signal generators. Once it is detected that the position of the diamonds has moved, or the signal suddenly disappears, the door of the exhibition hall will be locked instantly, and at the same time, the corner of the wall will be locked. The cold air blown out by the refrigerator will be switched to hypnotic gas, which will stun everyone in the exhibition hall at that time, and then we will find out who stole the diamond one by one."

The interior of the exhibition hall is completely closed, with no entrance or exit except for one door, not even a vent.

Even the power supply is completely independent. Because this exhibition hall was temporarily built, it is not connected to the main power supply line. All equipment inside uses independent power supplies.

"This anti-theft design is really amazing. It's more difficult than ever before, and that's without counting Robin, Batgirl or even anyone else."

Dean felt solemn in his heart, thinking about what method he should use to break through such a tight defense.

This thought brought me to the next day.

The time came on September 4th.

It was also the day of the preview of Kaitou Kidd.

Chapter 89: The power of the Doom Diamond is beginning to show?

"Dear viewers, this is Gotham Channel 7. I am the host Recy White. Recently, the famous gemstone 'Hope Blue Diamond' was put on public display at the Orphea Jewelry Exhibition Hall, which aroused heated discussions among the citizens. "

"As soon as the news of this legendary diamond spread, it was coveted by many thieves, including Kaitou Kidd, who became famous this year. According to Kaitou Kidd's notice, he will be there at 7:51 tonight Fen shows up and steals the 'Hope Blue Diamond'."

"Including the first crime that was treated as a prank, this is already the fifth theft by Kaitou Kidd."

"It may not sound like many times, but every time he commits a crime, he is extremely high-profile and bold. Not only does he proactively issue warnings before committing a crime, but he also treats theft as his own personal performance, and even performs magic tricks unscrupulously among ordinary people, and confuses the police. Play with the palm of your hand."

"There are rumors that in addition to Kaito Kidd, there is also a legendary thief who wants to steal the 'Hope Blue Diamond'. Faced with such a severe challenge, can the Offee Jewelry Exhibition Hall protect this diamond? Let us wait and see. "

At the entrance of the Offee Jewelry Exhibition Hall, Dean walked inside while watching the news broadcast on his mobile phone.

After taking a few steps, he felt someone behind him tap his shoulder.

Looking back, he saw Dick staring at him with a serious face.

"What's the matter, Dick?"

Dean asked with a raised brow.

"I'm going to tell you a secret."

Dick glanced left and right and whispered to Dean seriously.

"Actually...I am Robin!"

"What did you say?!"

Dean was shocked when he heard this and froze on the spot, thousands of thoughts passing through his mind like lightning.

Why did this guy reveal his identity for no apparent reason? What does he want to do?

Could it be to test my reaction?

but why? Did I do anything strange?

Unexpectedly, as soon as he saw Dean's suddenly stunned expression, Dick burst into laughter.

"Happy April Fool's Day! Are you scared by me? Hahahahaha..."

Looking at the triumphant Dick, the corners of Dean's mouth twitched crazily.

"Haha~ Just give it back to Robin? Then I still say that I am Kaitou Kidd."

Dean glanced at Dick with disgust.

"Ha, I won't be fooled like this. If you want to tease me, you have to think of a better way to say it."

Dick smiled confidently.

"Okay, the prank session is over. Are you here just to prank me?"

Dean said helplessly.

"Of course not. I'm here to tell you that something happened over there in the 'Hope Blue Diamond' exhibition hall."

"What happened? Someone stole it?"

Dean narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Fortunately, not yet. The specific situation will be discussed in the exhibition hall. They are still arguing inside."

Dick pointed to the corridor behind with his thumb, asking Dean to follow him quickly.

Without further ado, the two of them immediately rushed to the 'Hope Blue Diamond' independent exhibition hall.

"I still can't understand why an extra container is added so that no one can see the details of the diamond. What is the point of the exhibition? Director Aoife?"
