Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

"You have to know that our boss is a cautious person, and he only asked me to come here for one thing."

Ogilvy shook the cigarette in his hand, and stared at Manager Cicero with eyes you know.

Cicero is not stupid, he will understand on the spot.

I saw him sitting upright, and assured Ogilvy: "I have already arranged everything here, and there are quite a few relevant appraisal certificates, all of which come from the highest-standard authoritative institutions, and the simple appraisal method is completely accurate. No flaws can be seen, and the gang of rich people who are enjoying themselves will not doubt the authenticity of the diamond."

If outsiders hear Cicero's words, they will be shocked. The rumored world's largest pink diamond has a forged appraisal certificate, and the person who did this is actually the executive general manager of the Gotham International Hotel.

You know, the reputation of the Gotham International Hotel has always been excellent. Many auctions will be held here. As the executive general manager, Cicero is responsible for hosting countless auctions. stain.

Who would have thought that manager Cicero, who is deeply trusted by the people, would secretly collude with the Penguin to commit such an auction scam.

"Really? Then why did the rumors spread in Gotham recently that 'the diamonds at the auction are fake'? Some people even said that the seller behind this diamond is our boss..."

Ogilvy's eyes were fixed, and he stabbed at Cicero with a gloomy chill.

"The only people who know about diamonds are us and the puppet of the shipping company. I think, do you need to give me an explanation?"

"I don't know about the rumors!"

As soon as this remark came out, Cicero couldn't sit still, stood up and said, "I swear, I never revealed it to anyone else."

"Don't panic, the boss still trusts you, otherwise I wouldn't be talking to you here now."

Ogilvy waved his hand, motioning Cicero to sit properly.

Hearing what he said, Cicero finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"But he still sent me to remind you that based on the fineness of this diamond, the starting price alone is at least 30 million US dollars. This is not a small list. The boss attaches great importance to this and will never allow any mistakes."

Ogilvy said with a serious expression: "One more point, and the most important point, absolutely must not let the diamond have any connection with the boss on the bright side!"

"Understood, I understand the rules!"

Cicero nodded.

"Excellent, your share will be indispensable after the event is completed, let us cooperate happily."

Ogilvy and Cicero shook hands and smiled at each other.

What they didn't know was that at this very moment, there was an uninvited guest hiding above their heads.

"Wow, I really heard amazing news."

In the ventilation duct, Dean quietly lay on a barred fence, looking down secretly.

"The pink diamond at the auction really belonged to Penguin, and listening to the conversation between the two people below, it seems that this diamond is really a high-quality imitation."

Dean rolled his eyeballs, and a brand new plan of action emerged from his mind.

At this time, Ogilvy and Cicero got up at the same time after their conversation, and walked out the door with a group of younger brothers behind them.

Dean was optimistic about the timing, and saw that he flipped his fingers, and a card was instantly conjured between his fingers.

Then find the right angle, and when everyone in the room has their backs to him, he flicks down with his fingers.

The card popped out of the iron window at an extremely fast speed and fell to the ground, then bounced up at an unimaginable angle, and finally landed on the coffee table in front of the sofa just right.

"Well! Did you hear anything?"

Ogilvy keenly heard the slight sound of the card hitting the ground and rebounding, and immediately took out his gun and turned to scan the room.

Then he saw what seemed to be a strange white card on the coffee table.

The rest of the people were half a beat behind, and also took out their guns one after another.

It can be seen that the boys brought by Ogilvy have a very different quality from ordinary street gangsters.

While drawing their guns and turning around, everyone consciously dispersed, forming an arc-shaped formation that could radiate the entire room.

Only Cicero has not reacted yet.

"what happened?"

Hush!

Ogilvy raised his finger to his mouth, motioning Cicero to silence.

He didn't go directly to the coffee table to check the card, but winked at the younger brothers.

Then, under Cicero's bleeding gaze, Ogilvy and his younger brother went through the entire luxurious presidential suite, scratching and damaging a lot of high-end furniture.

After a while, the search stopped and there was no one else in the suite but them.

Only then did Ogilvy set his sights on the card.

When he picked up the card and looked at it, his pupils constricted immediately.

——

Gotham International Hotel, rooftop terrace.

Dean crawled out of the ventilation duct, covered in dust and rust.

"Ahem, I have to take eight showers after I go back."

Climbing to the roof, Dean coughed heavily twice, trying to cough out all the dust he had inhaled.

Drilling through ventilation ducts is really not a human job, it's dirty and narrow, and crawling in them is a terrible thing to do.

Dean took several deep breaths before he was relieved from the rusty breath.

"It's time for Kaito Kidd's name to spread throughout Gotham."

I saw Dean standing on the roof, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he reached out and grabbed the collar and pulled it down suddenly, and changed into a white dress in the blink of an eye.

The pure white cloak trembled slightly under the evening wind, and even a top hat appeared on his head.

That's right, he changed into Kaitou Kidd's costume.

Dean watched the vehicles and pedestrians coming and going on the road below, and jumped down abruptly.

Dean, who was falling freely in the air, activated the mechanism without any haste, and the cloak on his back suddenly changed from soft to hard, transforming into a delta hang glider.

Dean followed the wind and slid over the road.

"Look at the sky, is that a person?"

A white figure suddenly appeared in the dark night sky, easily attracting the attention of pedestrians on the ground.

"I saw it in the newspaper, it seems to be called Phantom Thief Kidd!"

"Wait, look carefully, is there something falling from the sky? It's right behind Kaitou Kidd!"

At this time, someone suddenly pointed at the sky behind Kaitou Kidd and screamed.

The passers-by looked up and indeed saw many small white objects falling from behind Kaitou Kidd, as if Kaitou Kidd was dropping something.

Kaitou Kidd's gliding speed was not slow, and soon flew over the heads of the group of people, and the scattered objects followed.

They were white cards with words written on them, and a cartoon head of Kaitou Kidd was drawn in the lower right corner.

Some people caught the cards floating down from the sky, while others picked up the cards that fell to the ground.

As for the content on the card, it was the notice letter from Kaito Kidd!

"The feast of the nobility is luxurious and tumultuous,

No one remembers the tragedy of Troy,

When Kronos returned to the origin,

Hermes will appear in the eyes of all eyes,

Expose the last deception.

Sincerely, Phantom Thief Kidd"
