"To be honest, if you had a friend go to their house every night to have a good chat with them, maybe your goal would have been achieved."
Hearing this, Bruce frowned, and said: "Batman is not a robber, Lucius, it is very easy to take away the equity by illegal means, but he won't do that, and he shouldn't do that."
"I know, but sometimes I think, if this continues, how long will you have to persist to achieve the desired goal?"
Lucius was not surprised by Bruce's reaction, and sighed slightly.
"I'll hold on until the day I can't hold on."
Bruce was decisive.
"Okay, enough gossip, we have a friend waiting for us to go on an appointment tonight."
Then, Bruce ended the topic.
"Lucius, are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare yesterday?"
"Of course, inspections are always welcome."
Lucius nodded.
"Then let's get going."

Ta Ta Ta Ta Ta Ta!
In the Cavaliers Stadium, several helicopters were circling back and forth in the sky, and the high-speed rotating propellers made a loud sound that echoed in the sky.
Three of them are police helicopters from the GCPD, and the rest are special planes from Gotham's major media companies.
Although Bruce has already set up an encirclement circle with a live camera in the center of the stadium lawn, which can broadcast the whole process of Kaitou Kidd's theft in an all-round way, theoretically, the media does not need to come and broadcast it.
But if such a big hot event is not reported in real time on the front line, can we still be called journalists?
Since the Wayne Group has taken care of the close live broadcast on the ground, they found another way to shoot the whole process from a bird's eye view.
Anyway, during the previous preview, the white mist in the sky seemed to be a key part of Kaitou Kidd's technique, and it was just in time to see what was going on from the air.
Among the several media helicopters, the most conspicuous one came from the largest Gotham Gazette.
Naturally, our old friend, Gotham's leading star reporter, Vicky Vale, is also included.
"Hello everyone, my name is Vicki Weir, and I am currently above Cavaliers Stadium."
In the cabin of the helicopter, Vicky held up the microphone and spoke to the camera.
"It can be seen that the Cavaliers Stadium is almost full at this time, showing the strong interest of people in Gotham in Bruce Wayne's challenge to Kidd."
"From this phenomenon, we can see that the existence of Kaito Kidd in Gotham seems to be more than just a criminal. He seems to have become a strange cultural symbol, and to some extent, he also shows a huge star power.”
"We have to admit that Kaitou Kidd is indeed an extremely charismatic super criminal. He is not as crazy as Two-Face, not as cunning as Penguin, not as paranoid as Riddler, not as vicious as Killer Croc, and Not as incomprehensible as the Joker, or even like any other criminal in the world.”
"Theft is like a medium for him to perform magic tricks, rather than a pure criminal act. I'm not exonerating Kid. He is a criminal, there is no doubt about it, but you have to Say, this thing is really cool!"
"He is wise, pays attention to etiquette, has a sense of humor and is also very gentlemanly. From his clothes to his temperament, he embodies romanticism at all times. Oh, not to mention he is still so handsome. I believe no one would dislike such a phantom thief. Kidd.”
"Given that in the preview three days ago, Kidd stole the Bat Lantern, a very special thing, some people think that this may be the trigger for the first conflict between Batman and Kidd."
"Now, there is only one and a half hours left before Phantom Thief Kidd's last preview. Let us wait and see whether this duel is another miracle performed by Phantom Thief Kidd, or is it the final success!"
As time progresses, it is getting closer and closer to the time when Kaitou Kidd will show up.
Everyone in the Cavaliers Stadium braced themselves for fear of missing any wonderful moment.
At that time, Bruce Wayne, Jim Gordon and others were standing outside the camera, staring at the Bat-Light inside.
There was also a circle of GCPD guards standing around, all well-equipped, and they were eyeing the Kaitou Kidd.
These dozen guards are the team that Gordon has led hand in hand over the years, and they are the most trustworthy group of people in the GCPD.
By bringing them here, Gordon strengthened his determination to arrest Kidd.
The venue this time can be said to be quite favorable to the GCPD. The previous operations of Kidd were in confined spaces and there were a large number of civilians present, making it inconvenient for Gordon to order a shooting.
But now all the civilians are in the audience, and there is no citizen on the lawn the size of a football field. There is no need to worry about accidental injuries.
However, Gordon still did not change his view on Kaitou Kidd. He was guilty but not worthy of death. If possible, he did not intend to kill Kidd.
Therefore, the guards are not equipped with live ammunition, but with tranquilizer ammunition.
"The time is almost up."
At this time, Bruce looked at his watch and said attentively.
Chapter 150 Kaitou Kidd returns to the stadium
"Yes, the time is almost up."
Gordon was also on guard, and ordered to the guards around him.
"One last time, make sure that you are equipped with an anesthesia bomb."
"Report sir, the confirmation is complete, the loaded ammunition is all anesthesia ammunition, and there is no live ammunition left!"
Soon, his guards reported.
"Very good. From now on, everyone must be alert at all times. Whenever you see Kaitou Kidd, shoot him immediately without waiting for an order!"
Gordon nodded and continued to order.
"Following the process of Kaito Kidd's last rehearsal, a large number of gliders will appear in the sky in a while. Shoot them all down for me then!"
"Yes, sir!"
At this moment, Gordon's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. The police had always been manipulated by Kidd and had no choice but to do anything.
On this day, he finally saw hope of avenging his past humiliation.
Didn't Kaitou Kidd say that he would do it again according to the technique and process shown in the preview?
Then I will destroy every process you have demonstrated and make your so-called preview a joke!
Next to him, Bruce watched Gordon give instructions, with an expression of satisfaction deep in his eyes.
Replacing live ammunition with tranquilizer bombs to deal with Kaito Kidd is indeed the most suitable solution.
With Kaitou Kidd's unpredictable mobility, if the police have to be restrained even to open fire, there is no way to improve the efficiency of catching Kaitou Kidd.
But if you use the live ammunition required for a normal police dispatch, it is easy to accidentally kill Kaitou Kidd.
Although it is not illegal for the police to kill criminals in the execution of official duties, and it is even generally considered an act that should be done in this country, Gordon has never been a law enforcement robot who simply follows the rules.
Gordon regards the law as a creed that cannot be blasphemed, but at the same time he does not strictly follow every legal provision. It can even be said that he has done many things that violate police regulations.
This seems very contradictory, and there is a suspicion of double standards, but in fact it is not that simple.
Gordon has a higher existence in his heart than the law, which is justice and conscience.
When a homeless man who has not eaten for several days robs another man's money with a knife, Gordon will not let him go just because he is pitiful. At the same time, he will never take out a gun and kill the homeless man.
Although more than 90% of the police here will choose the latter approach, which saves time and effort and is legal and compliant.
It is precisely because Gordon has a conscience in his heart that he knows that many things in the world cannot be judged simply by whether they are legal or not, so he can become one of Batman's most trusted allies.
That's why he and Batman can work together seamlessly and trust each other, unlike ordinary police and masked heroes who are at odds with each other.
"Isn't Fox here today?"
After giving all the orders, Gordon came to Bruce's side, looked at him alone and asked.
"Lucius is different from me. He is a busy man. Wayne Group relies on him for many things. The last time I could come here, I took time out of my busy schedule. Today I really can't spare the time."
Bruce scratched the back of his head and said with a rather honest smile.
"That's it, I know."
Gordon nodded.
At that time, no one noticed, in the audience at Cavaliers Stadium.
A petite girl sat in the crowd, her big and smart eyes staring closely at the bat lantern, looking at the helicopters in the sky from time to time, and listening to the heated discussions of countless people around her.
It can be seen that she seems not to adapt to this lively environment, and her eyes are full of distress and helplessness.
But she didn't complain, and she had no intention of changing seats, because the situation would be the same no matter where she changed.
"Hey! You all know the preview of Kaitou Kidd three days ago, right? I heard that he made such a big bat light disappear. In front of so many people and cameras, no one could see him. How did you do it! It’s really amazing!”
A nearby spectator who admired Kaitou Kidd said excitedly.
"Is this magical? I'm so ignorant. It's impossible for Kaito Kidd to move the bat lantern with his body. The bat lantern must still be in place. He just used some trick to make the bat lantern appear to disappear!"
Another audience member immediately retorted with disdain.
"Ouch! You are very knowledgeable. You really know how to act like someone who doesn't know the trick. If you have the ability, can you tell me what kind of trick Kaitou Kidd used?"
"Isn't it just a special mirror or glass cover? There are many plots like this in movies!"
"You know it's a movie. Phantom Thief Kidd made the Bat Lantern disappear and then covered it with a cloth. As a result, the cloth was spread directly on the lawn. Where did the Bat Lantern go?"
"Maybe Kaitou Kidd deliberately misplaced his position, and the cloth didn't even cover the Bat Lantern."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, do you think you are smart? As soon as I heard your speech, I knew that you had never watched the preview of Kaitou Kidd, and I'm afraid you didn't even watch the live broadcast on the Internet. How could you say something like "misplaced"? Are all the people at the scene blind?"
"Cowardly! Say what you want, you idiot Kidd fan."
Quarrels among the audience are not uncommon, and similar situations were occurring in many seats at this moment.
But it didn't take long for them to suddenly stop.
Because white shadows suddenly passed through the sky and filled the sky above the Knights Stadium in an instant.
That's right, these white flowing shadows are none other than Kaito Kidd's triangle hang glider!
After seeing this scene, everyone knew that this was the prelude to Kaitou Kidd's appearance!
"Quick, shoot down all those gliders!"
When Gordon saw this, he immediately shouted to his men.
Bang bang bang bang!
A burst of gunfire rang out, and countless bullets poured onto the glider.
The power of tranquilizer bombs is much weaker than live ammunition, but it is still no problem to knock out a few low-flying gliders.
However, just when this round of barrages met the glider group, explosions louder than gunshots followed.
All the gliders in the sky that were hit by bullets exploded one after another, and then a layer of white mist was released from an unknown part of the glider and spread rapidly over the stadium.
Gordon didn't expect that the white mist was not released manually by Kaitou Kidd, but what is the working principle of it?
Where on earth do hang gliders spew out this smoke?
Soon, not only the gliders that were hit by bullets, but also all the gliders in the sky exploded on their own, condensing a layer of dense white mist in the sky.
The thickness of the white mist was so thick that even people on helicopters higher up couldn't see through it.
"Ladies~and~Gentlemen!"
At this moment, Kaitou Kid's loud voice came from the sky.
“It’s show time!”
(It was released on the 14th last month, and it is exactly one month today. I really appreciate everyone’s support. Fortunately, you are willing to keep reading. Otherwise, I might not be able to persist today. I suddenly thought about briefly combing the bat. The chronicle of Xia's major events is also convenient for friends who have never read comics. If you only count the main magazine and some important periodicals, it should not be too much)
Chapter 151 It doesn’t matter if you lose, there are others
bump! bump! bump! bump! bump!
In the center of the Cavaliers Stadium lawn, muffled sounds sounded one after another as Kaid Kidd's entrance words came.
In an area with the bat light as the center of the circle, sparks suddenly shot out, like fireworks at the opening of the stage, blooming with brilliant brilliance in the dark night.
Countless sparks formed a lifelike pattern in mid-air, which was none other than Kaitou Kidd's iconic cartoon avatar.
When the sparks fell down, they somehow turned into a fleeting smoke, and a flawless white figure appeared out of thin air, standing next to the bat lamp.
Surprisingly, it was none other than Kaitou Kidd.
This appearance is actually slightly different from three days ago, but compared to just a cloud of smoke suddenly appearing and disappearing, the way it appears now is much more gorgeous.
"Kidd! Kidd! Kidd!"
