Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

"The beautiful diamond named 'Hope' is trapped in the curse of 'bad luck', which makes people fear it and prevent them from appreciating its beauty. This is really a pity, so I ended the obsession with this diamond for so long. A terrible curse for centuries.

Yours sincerely, Kaitou Kidd"

"Breaking... breaking the curse?"

After reading the information on the message card, Gordon's mind was suddenly filled with questions.

What does it mean? Did Kaitou Kidd steal the 'Hope Blue Diamond' to remove its curse?

Not to mention that Gordon didn't believe there was any curse on the diamond. Even if it was true, he didn't believe that Kaitou Kidd would come here to eliminate the curse on the diamond.

In short, Gordon seemed confused and confused.

But this is Gotham after all, and it's normal to not understand the motives for crimes.

Chapter 107 Mission accomplished

"Forget it, none of this is important. Since the Kaitou Kidd here is a fake, the diamond must also be fake. This message card is probably Kidd's way of misleading the police."

Gordon thought.

At this moment, Bisca came to him and said with gratitude: "Director Gordon, thank you so much!"

"You successfully recaptured the 'Hope Blue Diamond' from Kaito Kidd. I can't imagine what would have happened without you."

Looking at the excited expression on Bisca's face, Gordon fell into confusion for a moment.

"Wait a minute, Miss Bisca, are you saying that this 'Hope Blue Diamond' is genuine?"

How can this be? How could it be true?

If Phantom Thief Kidd put the real 'Hope Blue Diamond' on the dummy to attract the attention of the police, then where did the real Phantom Thief Kidd go?

Why did he do this?

More importantly, if the diamond in front of you is real, does it mean that in the exhibition hall before, Kaitou Kidd stole the diamond separated by two containers in less than a minute and escaped? Outside the exhibition hall, there was even time to put the diamonds on the dummy...

Is this something a human can do?

Could it be that Kaitou Kidd is really a magician?

"Well, there is no doubt that this is the 'Hope Blue Diamond'. Didn't I confirm it at the window?"

Bisca didn't see the confusion in Gordon's eyes, and nodded.

After receiving the affirmative answer, no matter how hard he couldn't believe it, Gordon had no choice but to believe it.

In addition to message cards and diamonds, GCPD also confiscated a pair of hang gliders and a dummy this time.

Although these two are not high-tech products, they are things used by Kaitou Kidd after all, and they have considerable research value.

"Miss Bisca, let us return the 'Hope Blue Diamond' to the exhibition hall first."

Gordon suggested, and Bisca also wanted to bring the diamond back to a safe place as soon as possible, and they reached an agreement.

After leaving a small team to continue searching the scene, Gordon and others led a dozen police cars to return the 'Hope Blue Diamond'.

"I'll tell you bad news. I'm not in a good mood today, so you'd better tell me all the information you know!"

Aoife Jewelry Exhibition Hall, in the curator's office, Robin fiercely pressed Director Aoife on the table.

One hand pressed firmly on the shoulder, and the other hand clasped the latter's wrist.

Robin only needed to squeeze slightly, and a strong pain surged out of Director Aoife's arm, which made him cry for father and mother.

Not long ago, Curator Offee wanted to be the hero who snatched the diamonds from Kidd. As a result, he rummaged through the office for a long time and emptied out all the contents of the safe but couldn't find the Hope Blue Diamond. ' where.

This was strange. Logically speaking, no one else should know except himself. The Penguin Gang only asked Curator Aoife to exchange the diamond, and they were completely indifferent to how to deal with the 'Hope Blue Diamond'. Attitude.

"No, there seems to be someone who knows that the 'Hope Blue Diamond' is here!"

Soon, Director Ao Fei recalled the only insider, the person he firmly believed would not do such a dirty thing.

batman.

Just when Curator Offee was angry that Batman would do something like steal diamonds, which was a disgrace to the trust placed in him by the people of Gotham...

The office door was kicked open by Robin, and then he pushed himself down on the table without saying a word.

Good guy, the master stole the diamond. Just when he complained a few words in his heart, the apprentice came over and beat him up.

Is there any king law?Are there any laws?

Could it be that this big Gotham has a surname of Bat?

At this time, Director Ao Fei felt aggrieved.

Robin didn't care whether he was holding back or not, he directly asked.

"Let me ask you, what exactly is the 'Hope Blue Diamond' on display at the exhibition these days? Why did you switch the 'Hope Blue Diamond'?"

Upon hearing the question, Director Ao Fei suddenly became furious.

I just told Batman two days ago that you were his partner but you said you didn’t know? Who believes it!

It's a pity that Curator Ao Fei dared not speak out now. He forced a smile and said kindly: "Luo...Robin, is there a misunderstanding between us?"

"I've told Batman everything I need to say, and I swear I won't hide anything. Could it be that Batman didn't tell you?"

"Batman?"

Robin stared at Curator Offee with ridiculous eyes and said: "If you come up with a better excuse, I might still believe it, but you said you had met Batman and revealed information to him, who are you fooling? ?”

"What I said is true. I met Batman when I went home the day before yesterday!"

Curator Ao Fei's face became anxious, and he quickly recounted what happened that day when Batman hung him on the roof and threatened him.

"Batman...the Penguin Gang...the Stone of Doom...the Blue Diamond of Hope..."

After listening to Curator Aoife's narration, Robin's eyes flickered.

"So that's what happened..."

-

Diamond District, Thaston House.

After various tedious counter-reconnaissance actions, Dean was finally able to return home with peace of mind.

"This is my first time trying to disguise myself, and the effect is pretty good."

While thinking about it, Dean came to the basement.

Now he has to do something crucial.

Dean took out a box from his arms and carefully placed it on the table.

What is inside is the 'Stone of Doom' that Penguin used to haunt himself.

Although the existence of the system prevented Dean from being too afraid of bad luck, curses, and the like, for the sake of safety, Dean decided not to open the box for the time being.

Think silently in your mind, call up the system, and settle the harvest of this action.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the custom mission - stealing the 'Stone of Doom'

Mission Difficulty: Difficult

Treasure value: good (a crystal that contains mysterious curse power, anyone who comes into close contact with it will be plagued by bad luck)

Gorgeous grade: B

Comprehensive evaluation: A (higher difficulty and treasure value raise the overall comprehensive score)

Reward obtained: 1200 exclamation points (from the audience in the exhibition hall, GCPD police, Jim Gordon, Robin...) + 1800 exclamation points (given after completing the task)."

"The account balance is 2600 exclamation points, and the total exclamation points are 5600 points."

After Dean redeemed his 'Sensitive Reaction', he originally had more than 2600 points of exclamation points left. However, Dean later redeemed some more practical props, such as micro bugs, which cost him More than points, only points were left in the end.

Just after the task was settled and the rewards were distributed, the system's beep continued to ring in Dean's ears.

"An unknown C-level curse source has been detected, which may pose a fatal threat to the host..."

"A sealed object that can effectively resist the source of the curse has been detected..."

"The source of the curse is being analyzed...the sealed object is being analyzed...the analysis is completed."

"You can choose to give the sealed object to the system for absorption. After successful absorption, an invisible shield will be automatically opened around the host to resist attacks from all similar curse sources."

"Note: It can only resist the same type of curse, and it can only be immune to C-level curse sources. The effect of higher-level curses is slightly weaker."

(Wow, I feel a lot of pain in the back of my legs today. I don’t know why. I can’t bend my legs. It hurts when I bend them. I can’t walk at all. My writing skills today are very affected.)

Chapter 108 Hard Surface Cutter

Dean was overjoyed when he heard the system prompt.

The system indeed has a way to make itself immune to the curse.

Although it is only immune to the kind of curse that also brings 'bad luck', it can only fully resist C-level strength.

But this function is still of extremely high value to Dean.

First of all, the analysis is automatically enabled by the system, and no exclamation points are deducted. The subsequent explanation does not mention that exclamation points are needed to absorb the 'sealed object'.

In other words, this is equivalent to Dean getting a genuine magic immunity passive for nothing.

Moreover, the threat of the C-class curse is not small. Ordinary people are basically bound to die if they touch it. I am afraid that even some superheroes who are not strong enough will be killed by this thing.

At this time, the system's beep sounded in Dean's ears again.

"Would you like to enable the absorption function?"

you still need to ask? Is there any reason not to turn it on?

Dean pressed confirm without saying a word.

The box he placed on the table with the Stone of Doom sealed inside suddenly lit up for a burst of light, and then the entire box began to disintegrate itself, turning into countless tiny fragments and disappearing into the invisible.

"Absorption completed, the anti-curse shield is being constructed... Construction completed."

It's said to be a shield, but it's invisible and intangible. After the construction was completed, Dean didn't feel anything. It was almost the same as usual.

On the table, because the box used to seal the curse was absorbed by the system, the Stone of Doom inside is now lying upright on it.

Dean reached out and picked up the Stone of Doom. When his fingers touched its surface, a cold feeling suddenly hit Dean.

The feeling is fleeting, like the feeling you get when you shiver after entering a cold storage room on a hot day.

"Was that the so-called curse just now?"

Dean thought to himself, "It doesn't seem strange. Is the shield effective?"

After waiting for a while, nothing happened. It must be that the curse has been offset.

"I wonder where Penguin got this thing from."

Dean gently shook the Stone of Doom twice in his hand, and then held it in his hand.

"There are still 5600 points of exclamation points, which can be exchanged for that thing. System, open the mall."

The mall interface floated in front of Dean.

He quickly swiped the interface, found an item, and clicked to buy it.

“Redeem Hardside Cutter.”

"Hard surface cutter: It can cut freely on the surface of objects, but it is limited to hard surfaces synthesized from conventional substances in the universe. The thickness of the hard surface must be less than fifteen centimeters, and it cannot be effective on living things."

"Worth 4500 exclamation points."

The appearance of the hard-sided cutter is similar to the glass cutter commonly seen in ordinary movies. The disadvantage is that it is not very small and requires manual operation.

The advantage is that it is extremely sharp, with a diamond-level hardness that is no different from paper in front of it. Except for a few super metals with special properties and mysterious powers, it can cut through anything, and the cutting process still makes no sound.

The first time Dean saw the item, he was daunted by its price.

Even if he could barely buy it, he would still give priority to other exchange items.

But with each action, Dean increasingly believed that this hard-surface cutter must be an indispensable artifact for him.

Think about it, how many outrageous super materials there are in this world. Glass-like materials can even be far harder than diamond.
