Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics
Chapter 84 Showdown (first order)
"Do you know Tarot cards?"
The Riddler looked at Ogilvy and asked.
"I've heard of deceiving things like astrology."
Ogilvy blurted out.
"As long as you have a little understanding of tarot cards, it will be easy to unravel this so-called notice letter."
The Riddler ignored Ogilvy's words and continued, and at the same time he refused to ask him any questions.
"The emperor, the wheel of fortune, the magician and the priestess are all Tarot cards, and the serial numbers are 4, 10, 1, 2."
"The serial number of the emperor is four, and the first day of holding the scepter can be understood as the first day of April, that is, April 1."
"The astrology of the wheel of fortune is Jupiter, and it is about to rotate two cycles, which is the length of Jupiter's rotation for two weeks. The time required for Jupiter to rotate one cycle is 9 hours, 55 minutes and 30 seconds, and two weeks is 19 hours and 51 minutes. De's hands-on time is 19:51 on April 1."
"The representative astrology of the priestess is the moon, and the silver-winged magician refers to Kaitou Kidd himself. The meaning of this sentence is the simplest. Kaitou Kidd will appear in the direction of the moon at 19:51, which is northwest."
"The pinnacle, the closest Tarot card to it is the tower with number 16, and the tallest building in Gotham City is the Wayne Tower."
"Combining the height of the Wayne Tower and the height and straight-line distance of the Orpheus Jewelry Exhibition Hall, standing on the roof of the exhibition hall at an elevation angle of 33 degrees is just enough to see the tip of the Wayne Tower, and 33 is exactly equal to 4+10+1 +2+16."
To sum up, Kaito Kidd will land on the Wayne Tower from the southeast at 19:51 on April 1st.
"As expected of Mr. Nigma, he saw through Kidd's notice letter at a glance."
Ogilvy said with reverence, "Don't worry, the boss will help you from here soon..."
"No need!"
The Riddler interrupted bluntly.
"I can get out of here whenever I want, without anyone's help!"
"Also, go back and tell Copperpot that you will never come to me again!"
Seeing the resolute attitude of the Riddler, Ogilvy left the visiting room.
Before leaving, he secretly slipped two stacks of banknotes to the two prison guards at the door.
Walking out of the gate of Arkham Asylum, the corners of Ogilvy's mouth couldn't stop rising.
Can't understand Kaito Kidd's notice letter?
Just kidding, maybe he can't reach the level of a riddleman who can understand it at a glance, but it is very easy to decipher the notice letter after calming down and thinking carefully.
Why did Ogilvy come here to find the Riddler?
The reason is not Kaitou Kidd, but the Riddler himself.
Ogilvy did not completely lie to the Riddler. The Penguin is really unable to get away at the moment, and he has not focused on the Kaitou Kidd. He gave Ogilvy full authority to deal with the Kaitou Kidd. .
It's just that the Penguin didn't give Ogilvy the task of finding the Riddler to decipher the notice.
This is not a problem for Ogilvy. He can say that it will take time to solve it by himself, and finding a riddler is the best solution.
He knew very well that the Riddler was an existence with an extremely serious mental illness, with extraordinary obsessive-compulsive disorder and a fanaticism for riddles.
With a little provocation, the Riddler will hate Kidd the Phantom Thief who likes to put out puzzles in the teaser letter.
Although Ogilvy prepared the Stone of Doom to deal with Kaitou Kidd, he was not afraid of 10,000, just in case. Kaitou Kidd saw the problem with the Stone of Doom and did not touch it directly, so he had to use his backhand .
Ogilvy's back-hand is the Riddler.
At the same time, Ogilvy's seemingly inadvertent rhetoric will also make the Riddler dissatisfied with the Penguin.
The former is to get rid of the Kaitou Kidd, and the latter is to plan ahead for the future...
Dean was unaware of these undercurrents hidden under the sun, and was not affected at all.
He lived a normal life as always, and went to the target location to investigate.
Gotham High School's ten-day spring break is coming to an end soon, and Dean has added school to his daily routine, which has not changed much.
There are three days left until the start of the "Hope Blue Diamond" exhibition.
When Dean walked into the school, all kinds of discussions about Kaitou Kidd frantically flooded into his ears.
During this period of time, the discussion of Kaitou Kidd has been steadily increasing, and everyone is talking about Kaitou Kidd's notice letter.
It is worth mentioning that although the hero camp including Dick and Barbara and the villain camp of Riddler, Ogilvy and others have already unlocked the content of the teaser letter, no one has disclosed the news.
For outsiders, Kaito Kidd's notice letter is still an unsolved mystery.
Even the GCPD police were kept in the dark.
For some reason, Barbara did not choose to tell Gordon the secret of the notice letter this time.
"Hey! Dean."
When Dean entered the classroom, he heard Dick calling himself from the corner seat.
"What's wrong?"
Dean returned to the back seat by the window and sat down, turned to look at Dick and asked.
"Do you have time in three days?"
Dick said mysteriously.
"Why, you want to learn magic again?"
Dean frowned.
"No, don't you know that the 'Hope Blue Diamond' exhibition will be held three days later?"
Hearing this, Dean's heart shuddered. What did Dick mean by saying this suddenly? Don't tell him he's going to mess up again.
Dean cheered up his heart, and said calmly, "I know, but I have never been interested in this kind of rich people's activities."
"I'm not interested in the exhibition either, but it's different when it comes to Kaitou Kidd."
Dick agreed with Dean's idea of the exhibition, and then suddenly changed the subject.
"Oh? You mean you have unlocked Kaito Kidd's notice letter?"
Dean asked curiously.
"Well, I won't tell you first."
Dick smiled and said, "Unless you agree to go to the exhibition with me in three days."
"Cowardly! It's as if someone doesn't know, and I have to go to the exhibition with you. What can I do with that time?"
Dean pouted.
"Don't say that, don't you wonder what the magic level of Thief Kidd is?"
Dick persuaded.
"Think about it, Phantom Thief Kidd's magic level is not bad, and your magic level is also very high. It is said that Phantom Thief Kidd likes to use magic as a modus operandi very much. If there is a professional magician like you, you may be able to expose the Phantom Thief on the spot. Kidd's method!"
As he said this, Dick looked at Dean expectantly.
"..."
Dean didn't know what to say for a while, and spoke after a long silence.
"Dick, you seem to be obsessed with Kaito Kid."
Dean looked Dick up and down suspiciously.
"You are a young master from a rich family. Instead of thinking about eating, drinking and having fun all day long, you are obsessed with exposing the phantom thief Kidd... Are you a detective? Or a policeman?"
As soon as the words fell, Dick's face suddenly became serious.
"Dean, I have a showdown..."
