Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

"Speaking of Robin, do you feel that Robin's performance has been poor recently?"

At this time, another audience member intervened and asked.

"Hiss--listening to what you said, it seems to be true. Let's not mention anything else. Speaking of Kaitou Kidd, Robin has fought against him so many times, but he lost to Kidd every time. This is indeed far different from Robin's previous performance."

"Yes, yes, and in the past two months, Robin and other criminals have been less ruthless than before. When dealing with robbers, they just knocked them out without causing any more damage. It feels like It’s like he’s been deliberately holding back, and I don’t know why.”

"Where did you get this kind of news? Batman and Robin don't like to appear in the public eye. They can't appear in newspapers a few times throughout the year. The birth of Justice League has increased Batman's exposure. Otherwise, many people would still be unaware of it. I also think Batman is an urban legend.”

"Well, I have a relative in the GCPD..."

In the eyes of the audience, today's events have been settled here.

Kaitou Kidd was victorious once again, just like always.

Although there is a weird atmosphere everywhere in this incident, what does that have to do with ordinary audiences like them who come to watch the fun?

On the other side, the center of the lawn.

Looking at the cartoon avatar of Kaitou Kidd in the sky with a wicked smile on his face, as if he was mocking someone, Robin clenched his fists.

boom!

The furious Robin punched Kidd's lamp with his fist, instantly shattering the bulb and making a loud noise.

Right in front of him, the Bat Lantern was switched into a Kidd Lantern, and he didn't realize anything was wrong until the last moment.

When was Kaitou Kidd replaced? In what way was it replaced? Where did the Bat-Light go? How does he move a multi-ton BatLamp?

Robin had no idea, couldn't even imagine the possibility.

Is it true that, as Bruce had previously speculated, Kaitou Kidd is suspected of being a magician or possessing some kind of ultra-modern space technology, or both?

The answer is - there are close points, but they are not appropriate.

Kaito Kidd has not learned any magic yet. Space technology may be available in the future, but it does not exist now.

But if it is said that Kaitou Kidd has not used any ultra-modern technology, then it is naturally impossible.

He did use black technology, and he used several kinds, including those exchanged in the system, and some props made by himself based on the existing technology in the current world.

For example, the special lens that makes the bat light invisible is made by Dean himself at home. Of course, the raw materials are exchanged from the system. After all, many things are difficult for individual users to buy, and it is inconvenient to buy.

It is basically cheap to exchange raw materials in the system, as long as they are not super metals with mysterious powers like Amazon metal and N metal.

It is not difficult to imagine that Kaitou Kidd used the Kidd lamp to replace the bat lamp is the credit of some black technology.

At this moment.

In the center of the Cavaliers Stadium lawn, a large pit was dug at some point in a space about five meters underground.

The missing Bat Lantern is suddenly in this big pit, as is Kaitou Kidd.

Kaitou Kidd, who was using a head-on cutter to cut the promethium alloy bat logo, heard the noise coming from above and immediately raised his head and looked up.

"Huh~ Fortunately, Robin didn't notice the problem on the ground."

Soon, Kaitou Kidd breathed a sigh of relief. The system was still very powerful, and the real lawn he exchanged was indeed fake.

Three meters above his head is not just a hollow, there is also a layer of soil, and there is a layer of lawn on top of the soil.

Of course, Kaitou Kidd couldn't dig a hole through the two-meter soil layer below. Instead, he used the system to temporarily exchange soil and grass to deceive people on the ground.

If you only use a layer of fake lawn board to cover the dug hole, it will be too easy to be discovered.

This is how it happened?

Five-star General MacArthur once said that there are no roads underground. When more people dig, roads are formed.

Although Kaitou Kidd can't move the bat lamp which weighs several tons, gravity can move it.

Why did he set aside three days after the rehearsal? It was actually to dig a hole underground. There was a system that could replace the soil layer to block the entrance of the hole, so he didn't need to worry about the hole he dug being discovered.

Otherwise, how could Kaitou Kidd only go to the Iceberg Casino to gamble with the Penguin in the past three days?

Chapter 159 Kaitou Kidd successfully escaped

A few days ago, when Bruce Wayne held a press conference and announced to the entire Gotham city that he would challenge the Kaitou Kidd, the news came out.

Dean began to think about how to layout.

Bruce's challenge came so suddenly. Even if Dean had anticipated that a similar situation might happen, he never expected it to happen so soon.

This also led to Dean actually falling into passivity to a certain extent.

The terrain of the Cavaliers Stadium is relatively open, and the bat lanterns that preserve ocean gems are simply and roughly placed in the center of the stadium lawn. A blockade is also set up to prevent people from getting close to the bat lanterns.

This means that Dean cannot have enough time and conditions to survey the scene or prepare some hidden phone devices in advance as he did before.

Because except for a very small number of people who are allowed to enter the stadium, everyone else is only allowed to go to the auditorium, and even these few people can only go near the blockade, and there is still no close contact with the bat light. possible.

In the audience, it was difficult for Dean to get enough useful information and prepare in advance.

Fortunately, there is a 24/7 real-time broadcast in the Cavaliers Stadium. At least Dean can still get a glimpse of the overall environment layout, so that he doesn't really know anything about it.

However, how to approach the Bat Lantern and how to successfully steal the ocean gems in the Bat Lantern became problems that Dean had to solve.

On the other hand, the person who initiated the challenge was Bruce Wayne, the famous Batman, the brains of the Justice League, and the world’s number one detective...

There are too many legendary titles on his head, which invisibly puts great psychological pressure on Dean.

During that time, Dean racked his brains and pondered many plans, but eventually gave up because the feasibility of success was too low.

Considering that his opponent was most likely Batman, Dean felt unsafe no matter what he thought.

It wasn't until he returned home and walked into the underground secret room that he suddenly had an idea. He thought of Batgirl's previous experience of hiding a monitor at home and being deceived by him using a double secret room plan.

That time, he had a lot of credit because Dean used the system to redeem the old dust, making Batgirl believe that the secret room she found was in a state that no one had entered for a long time.

So, since he can exchange the system for dust, why can't he use the system to exchange for other things?

Continuing along this line of thinking, Dean actually came up with a more feasible plan.

In the Cavaliers Stadium, no one is allowed to get close to the Bat Lantern. Whether it is disguised or sneaking in secretly, it is not possible. The only way is to break in by force, which is tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap.

At least, on the ground, it was absolutely impossible for Dean to get close to the Bat-Light.

Naturally, there are only two ways to get close to the bat light: from the sky and from the ground.

The reason why we have to think of two ways is simple.

Dean planned to stage a large-scale misdirection, first using the pretext to demonstrate the sky approach plan in front of everyone, and then in turn use the underground approach plan in the official operation if they had preconceived ideas.

As for the intermediate step of making the bat light disappear, the first time it was just to use special lenses to make the bat light invisible, and the second time was to really make the bat light "disappear".

However, in the eyes of the audience, Kaito Kidd used the same technique in both performances.

Needless to say, Dean still believed in Batman's ability. He was sure that the other party could definitely see the techniques he used in his rehearsal, so it was essential to prepare two plans.

Although it was unexpected that he didn't meet Batman in the end, it wasn't a big deal.

However, the imagination was beautiful, but in practice, Dean found that these two plans were not easy to implement.

The sky plan is okay. All you need to prepare is a little more remote-controlled hang glider and high-density smoke, which can quickly create a dense fog area over the stadium.

The way to exit is to use a rope in advance to connect the remote-controlled glider in the sky to Kaitou Kid's shoulders. When finally leaving, he first uses smoke bombs to cover himself, and then lets the rope rebound at high speed to him. Take it to the sky and use the cover of thick fog in the sky to quickly escape from the scene.

This underground plan is more difficult to implement. It requires digging a hole in a secret place outside the Cavaliers Stadium, all the way to the bottom of the bat light in the center of the lawn. This workload is not ordinary.

Digging the hole itself is not difficult. The excavation drill bit technology in this world is very advanced. Dean can easily buy a good Wayne Technology drill bit by pretending to be someone else. It takes three days to dig to the stadium, which is more than enough, and there is even extra in between. I took the time to go for a spin at the Iceberg Casino.

The most troublesome problem is actually what to do with the excavated soil and how to hide the dug hole.

The soil cannot disappear on its own. A large mound of soil suddenly appeared near the stadium, and there was a big hole next to it, making it difficult not to notice.

If the soil needs to be dispersed and disposed of far away, it will take too much time. It may not be possible to dig to the stadium in 13 days, let alone 3 days.

The longer it goes on, the worse it will be for Dean.

The longer Batman and Robin et al are given to think about it, the more likely they are to think of the second option.

Dean had to shorten the time gap between the rehearsal and the actual operation as much as possible, just enough for them to come up with the secret of the first plan. In fact, three days was already relatively long, but there was no way to shorten it.

In short, solving the dirt problem was urgent for Dean.

At this time, it is the system's turn to appear.

As mentioned before, Dean was able to use the system to exchange for dust before, so it is no problem to exchange for soil. Sealing the hole with soil can directly assimilate with the surrounding soil, making it look like it has not been dug before.

The problem of hiding the cave entrance has been solved. As for the excavated soil, it has to be exchanged for an item in the system, the soil circulation cleaner.

This device is amazing. It can use soil as a power source and its function is to absorb soil.

Doesn't it sound very abstract? To put it simply, it absorbs soil and converts it into some kind of energy, and then consumes this energy to absorb more soil.

The more soil is absorbed, the more energy is converted. The more energy is converted, the greater the energy consumption. The greater the energy consumption, the more soil is absorbed...

Of course, this soil circulation cleaner has an upper limit of absorption. Once the upper limit of absorption is reached, it will be damaged. Dean exchanged a total of three of them to clean up all the soil.

And this also made Dean's already poor balance of exclamation points worse.

Fortunately, Dean's performance went very smoothly this time. There were tens of thousands of spectators in the Cavaliers Stadium. You can imagine how much income this will bring to Dean, which may exceed the sum of the previous actions!

Without investment, there would be no reward. When he thought about the future income and the exclamation points used, Dean felt less heartbroken.

"It's not a good place to stay for a long time. I have to leave quickly."

As the hard-surface cutter made a circle on the Bat logo, a hole was carved out of the Bat logo made of promethium alloy.

Dean took out the ocean gem from the bat symbol, put on the oxygen bottle he had prepared in advance, and left without stopping through the passage that had been dug for three days.

Although there is a two-meter-thick layer of soil above the head as a cover, no one will notice it for a while, but there is no guarantee that someone will suddenly have to dig six feet into the ground, which will not be fun.

Chapter 160 Batman becomes interested in Phantom Thieves

Meanwhile, Cavaliers Stadium, center field lawn.

Robin smashed Kaito Kid's searchlight with a punch, finally bringing the whole incident to a happy ending...?

It is not clear whether the circle is perfect or not, but there is no problem as to what the period should be.

"Hmm~ Sir...what happened just now?"

Outside the blockade, a group of GCPD guards who had been stunned by Kidd woke up slowly and asked Gordon with confused faces.

Just like Kaitou Kidd said, the intensity of the electric current was not strong, and they only fainted for a few minutes before regaining consciousness.

"Kaitan Kidd has run away."

Gordon said blankly.

"what!"

A dozen young guards climbed up from the ground and looked around. They found that the original bat light had disappeared and was replaced by a small searchlight that was smashed by an unknown party. They showed dumbfounded expressions.

"Sir, what on earth is going on? Kaitou Kid ran away? He really stole the Bat Lantern!"

"Otherwise? Could it be that Bat Lantern ran away by himself?"

Gordon was angry.

"Lift the blockade, Director Gordon. We have to search the scene carefully. I still can't believe that Kaitou Kidd can take away such a heavy Bat Lantern. He will definitely leave clues somewhere."

Next to him, Bruce came over and said solemnly.

"Well, Mr. Wayne is thinking the same thing as me. If Kaito Kidd can really take away a multi-ton Bat-Light by himself, then everything we have known about him all this time is wrong. "

Gordon nodded, and then expressed condolences to the guards who had just woken up around him.

"How are you feeling? Can you move your body normally?"

"I feel fine, sir. It's like I've had a good night's sleep. I don't feel any discomfort."

The guards responded after stretching their bodies.

"Really? Don't force yourself."

Gordon continued.

"There is no reluctance, our bodies are indeed fine."

"Great, then come with me now to dismantle the blockade."

As he spoke, Gordon took a dozen guards forward and removed the blockade surrounding the center of the lawn.
