Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

"You really think so?"

Dick gave Dean a strange look.

The latter said with a matter-of-fact expression: "Of course, as long as you have seen Kaitou Kidd's performance, no one in the world who loves magic will not respect him."

"How do I remember that you said before that 'one colleague is an enemy'? You also said that the methods used by Kaitou Kidd are just tricks that beginner magicians can do."

Dick said with a half-smile.

"Huh? Uh...that's what I said on purpose for the sake of face. Maybe you really thought that beginner magicians could reach the level of Kaitou Kidd."

Seeing this, Dean scratched his head in embarrassment, and smiled dryly.

"Of course I know that ordinary magicians can't reach the level of Phantom Thief Kidd. It's just that you suddenly start praising Phantom Thief Kidd, which makes me feel a little surprised."

Dick shrugged.

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about these things, you asked me to come to catch the Kaitou Kidd, we have to hurry into the 'Hope Blue Diamond' exhibition hall, otherwise it will not be crowded when there are more people. went in."

Dean looked at Dick and said solemnly.

"By the way, why didn't you see Barbara today?"

Suddenly, Dean looked around and asked curiously.

"Barbara has something urgent to deal with today, so she didn't come."

Dick explained.

"So that's the case, that's really a pity."

Dean said with a slight regret in his tone.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but at that moment just now, Dick seemed to see a flash of surprise in Dean's eyes.

That expression was fleeting, and the eyes that looked at Dean were so clear that Dick wondered if he really saw it.

"What are you thinking, Richard?"

Looking at Dick who was a little dazed, Dean asked.

"Oh, it's nothing, I'm just thinking about when Kaitou Kidd will show up today."

Dick came back to his senses immediately, and smiled as usual.

Dean nodded, and took the lead to walk to the exhibition hall after the transfer of "Hope Blue Diamond".

Looking at Dean's back, a deep light flashed in the depths of Dick's eyes.

Because the Kaitou Kidd deliberately let the people in the exhibition hall find himself disguised as a repairman, the police and the museum found out all kinds of tricks in the original independent exhibition hall, completely destroying all the arrangements of Catwoman.

Although only a few people know that the mechanism in the independent exhibition hall is made by Catwoman, most people think that it is the work of Kaitou Kidd.

In short, the original independent exhibition hall must no longer be put into use, and the "Hope Blue Diamond" was transferred to another regular exhibition hall.

This situation happened too hastily, and there was no way to re-create a place with a higher security level than the independent exhibition hall. We could only transfer the "Hope Blue Diamond" to a relatively safer exhibition hall.

That is the east exhibition hall on the fifth floor of the Aofei Jewelry Exhibition Hall. It is located on the edge of the building as a whole, with two windows next to it and only one entrance and exit.

The windows on both sides look like glass, but they are actually made of high-strength glass that is fire-proof, explosion-proof, cold-resistant, and high-temperature resistant. Unless it is bombarded with heavy firepower, there is no possibility of it being broken.

At the same time, the booth of "Hope Blue Diamond" was placed in the center of the exhibition hall. The booth was equipped with a high-precision gravity sensing device. Even if only a few grams of external force were applied to "Hope Blue Diamond", an alarm would be triggered.

The only thing that is strange is that the 'Hope Blue Diamond' has already been protected by a bulletproof glass cover on the booth, but curator Offee still insists on putting the 'Hope Blue Diamond' in the box he brought, claiming not to do so If you do, bad luck will come.

As early as a few days ago, he had always had this attitude, and everyone couldn't resist him, so they had to keep the previous container.

"Director Gordon, are you serious about what you just said?"

In the corridor at the entrance of the east exhibition hall, Biska looked at Gordon in shock and asked.

"Since we discovered the secret passage and the gas mask in the independent exhibition hall, Kailinna has disappeared mysteriously. No one has seen her, and no surveillance camera has captured her movement track, leaving only a few here and there. Meaningless picture."

Gordon nodded solemnly.

"Miss Biska, I ask you to tell me now, is there really an employee 'Kelina' in the Smithsonian?"

Biska shook her head and said, "She is a security expert specially hired from overseas after we announced the Gotham exhibition plan. To be honest, I don't know much about her than you."

"Then 'Kelina' is very likely to be a fake identity. I have enough reasons to suspect that she is the thief who pretended to be you to inquire about information from Director Offee. As for her real identity, she is probably a member of Gotham. A senior thief named Selina Kyle, nicknamed Catwoman."

Gordon introduced Biska.

"It's just horrific."

Biska said fearfully, "Kelina has always been very professional. I never thought she was a thief. If she really stole the 'Hope Blue Diamond', the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"But thinking about it the other way around, the more skilled the thief is, the more professional he is in preventing theft. After all, no one knows the tricks of the trade better than them."

At this time, Dean came over at some point, and Dick followed him.

"Makes sense."

Gordon glanced at Dean unexpectedly, but turned his face the next second.

"This is not the place for the two of you to stay. It is fine to visit normally, and it is forbidden to hinder the police from handling the case!"

Dean and Dick, who were blasted away by Gordon, turned silently and walked towards the entrance of the exhibition hall in front of the corridor.

"Why didn't you say this when Barbara was around? You have to talk in the corridor. You have the ability to block the corridor so that no one can pass by. Isn't it normal for someone to hear the conversation when passing by and want to interject?"

Dean snorted softly.

"You'd better not say a few words, lest Director Gordon get angry and drive us out of the exhibition hall."

Dick patted him on the shoulder as a reminder.

"Don't worry, he can't hear it."

Dean patted his chest confidently, saying it was okay.

"Hey! Look, Harvey is ahead."

At this time, Dick suddenly pointed to the entrance of the exhibition hall.

I saw my old friend Harvey Bullock leading a team to guard the door, surrounded by a dozen policemen, both men and women, who were routinely checking everyone who entered the exhibition hall—to see if anyone was wearing a disguise mask.

Seeing this scene, Dean's pupils shrank instantly.

Dick, who had been staring at him after speaking, quickly caught this, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"What's the matter, Dean? Are you afraid of being pinched in the face?"

Dick remained calm and said with a teasing smile.

"Hmph~ how is it possible? I'm not a child, who would be afraid of such a thing?"

Dean snorted and strode forward to line up, Dick followed closely behind him.

When it was Dean's turn to be examined, Dick immediately widened his eyes, staring at Brock's movements and Dean's reaction.
