Phantom Thief Kidd in the Comic World

"I wonder if you are satisfied with this deal, Mr. Lawton?"

Magison gestured to Deadshot with vibranium.

Although it is only the size of a thumb, its value has exceeded 100 million US dollars.

Deadshot stared at the dark stone at the fingertips of Kaitou Kid.

There was no doubt that he was moved.

Many people actually don't understand that Deadshot is obviously one of the best killers in the world, why is there such a big gap between him and others?

Compared with other famous killers such as Deathstroke, Deadpool, Punisher and even Bullseye, although they are all executioners with blood on their hands, they all have their own bottom line.

It goes without saying that both Deadpool and the Punisher are anti-heroes, and even Bullseye is at least loyal to Kingpin.

But Deadshot has no bottom line when it comes to killing people.

As long as the money is given, he will show no mercy to anyone.

So much so that there is a precedent that after the front foot helped the employer to kill the target, the back foot also killed the employer without being prepared.

Even though this happened, there were still so many people vying for Deadshot to take their orders.

There is no way, who makes him have too strong business ability, and he doesn't choose.

The most important thing is that the price is not high, and the various target pricing is very reasonable.

Like Deadpool, if he doesn't kill this person, he won't kill that person. The price is too high, but not many employers are willing to find him.

Does Deadshot love money as much as his life?

Of course not. Deadshot is probably one of the most diligent killers in the world. On average, he takes at least fifty orders a year and kills about one person every other week.

This frequency is already quite scary. You must know that the orders Deadshot takes are not limited to Gotham. He will take on assassination commissions from all states in the United States.

He is a model employee who works 24/7.

Worth learning from fellow Deadpool.

McGison knew there was a reason why Deadshot was so desperate to take orders.

Although the reward received by the killer is obviously very large, it is at least several hundred thousand, and it may be more than tens of millions.

But in fact, this money is black money from unknown sources, and it is difficult to spend it without money laundering.

But once the money is laundered, half of it is considered good.

It would be better if it was in an underground business place like the black market. The black money can be spent directly, buying things, playing with women, whatever you want.

It's just that the purchasing power is much lower than that of the real US dollar, but of course it is still more than the laundered money.

Most people who work as professional killers have some psychological problems, so they never skimp on food, drink and fun when they make money.

The expenses were already high, but the money actually received was discounted.

Therefore, most killers have to take a lot of orders every year. Although it is not nine-nine-six, it is a job that they do with their heads in their hands. In fact, they have a pretty hard life.

In movies, we often see many veteran killers who have been working for more than ten or twenty years and want to retire. Their total net worth is only tens of millions of dollars.

But the orders he usually takes are hundreds of thousands of dollars, and he only has so little left after twenty years? Many people may think this is wrong.

But in fact it is very reasonable.

This is what the killers located in the middle and upper levels of the pyramid can achieve.

More than 70% of killers will basically never retire, not because they will be killed by their peers because of some nonsense retirement, but simply because they will starve to death if they have no source of income after retirement.

Don't think it's incredible. There are actually very few high-end killers like those in the movies in the world. Most killers just use imitation guns or obsolete old guns.

You have to save your bullets, and your accommodation is mediocre.

Most of the time, they don't even work as killers, but as mercenaries, because big customers who want to find killers will only look for killers with names. Who knows a little guy like you?

Only the Death Knell at the top can live a comfortable life and earn more money than they can spend in a few lifetimes.

Facts have proved that the gap between rich and poor exists in any world.

After all, ascetic killers like Deathstroke are rare.

Deadshot is obviously not a killer like Deathstroke, and his own expenses are very large.

Also, what few people know is that Deadshot has a daughter!

He is a killer with a family.

Although he and his wife divorced, this did not affect his love for his daughter.

Deadshot's wife did not find a new husband, so the entire family's expenses actually fell on Deadshot's shoulders.

Buying a house, a car, going to school for your daughter, and daily expenses all require money, and the cleanest money must be used.

This means that the money earned by Deadshot will be much lower than the general money laundering model.

Maybe the one-time reward will only be 30%.

This makes it obvious that the real reason why Deadshot abandoned the bottom line is actually for his daughter.

He needs a lot of money.

Very much money.

Money that can ensure that his daughter will live a safe life.

"I don't know why you came here, and I haven't seen anyone come to the rooftop, but only today."

Faced with the temptation of vibranium, Deadshot chose to compromise.

Vibranium is much more popular than most people imagine, and it can be sold to many large technology companies without any black money.

After Deadshot was imprisoned in Arkham Asylum eight years ago, his original wealth was gone. What he lacked most now was money.

Otherwise, he would not have allowed Black Mask to work as a thug under him. This job would be too humiliating for a top killer.

Deathstroke didn't take the Villain Alliance seriously at all and left as soon as he said it. This is the confidence of a strong man.

Now, the deal proposed by Kaitou Kidd is exactly what he needs most.

"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Lawton."

Magison smiled slightly and threw the vibranium in his hand to Deadshot.

The first thing Deadshot did after receiving the vibranium was to take out a Walkman that could emit ultrasonic waves, and then pointed it at the small stone to release ultrasonic waves.

The biggest characteristic of vibranium is that it can absorb any form of sound waves and convert them into energy for storage.

Sure enough, in just a few seconds, the vibranium began to heat up, and at the same time, a faint halo of light emitted from the inside of the stone.

It's the real thing.

"The playing cards that fell on the ground over there are also mixed with vibranium. If you sell them as collectibles, you can make a lot of money. That card can be used as my thank you gift."

"By the way, Mr. Lawton, maybe we will have new cooperation in the near future..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Magison disappeared in a puff of smoke.

This trick couldn't be hidden from Deadshot. He turned back and looked in the direction of the bell tower, just in time to see Kaitou Kidd, who had taken out his grappling gun and shot it at the top of the bell tower, waving to him.

"Interesting guy."

Deadshot thought to himself, then bent down and picked up the playing card...

This time, McGison, who had been busy for most of the day, was finally able to enter the bell tower.

There is nothing on the top spire of the bell tower. If you want to enter the dark room inside, you need to find the mechanism.

This is certainly not a problem for McGison.

I saw Magison carefully observing each brick, and finally found a suspicious point not far from his feet.

"Dong dong dong."

Magison tapped the brick a few times and found that it could be pressed down, so he pressed hard.

Just hearing the sound of gears turning, the pressed brick quickly sank down, and a new object rose up.

It was a small platform similar to an operating interface, with a bat logo engraved on it.

Based on McGeeson's understanding of this mechanism, most likely the secret passage must be opened by pressing Batman's palm on it.

Without Bruce's handprint, basically no one can get in from here.

But now, the operation panel in front of Magisson has been damaged beyond recognition.

The module displaying the palm print was burnt black and full of cracks.

The entire operating table was covered with green question mark graffiti.

Apparently, Magison's guess about the riddle Nygma left behind was correct.

The Riddler must have left some clues in the clock tower.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, countless arcs and sparks appeared on the operating table. Magison reacted quickly and dodged immediately.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

There were bursts of weird laughter coming from the console, and McGison blindly guessed that this was the recording left by the Riddler.

"Batman, you are finally back. I knew you would definitely solve my riddle... Of course you will come here even if you can't solve the riddle, even if I lower the difficulty for you."

McGison: "..."

This guy really thinks that Batman is the only one in the world who can be his opponent. He really wants to say something. Just the riddle you think of, the logic is simply incomprehensible.

I don't see your high IQ at all. At most, I admit that you do have a big brain.

"Do you think you can find clues to the fusion reactor here? No, no, no, no, what awaits you is a real puzzle. You'd better remember the third riddle I gave you, because it will become your last hope. "

"By the way, Batman, I hope you won't come too late, because the person locked down below won't last long..."

At this point, the recording has finished playing.

The moment the sound stopped, the console automatically lowered, and at the same time, a vertical downward secret passage appeared in front of Magison.

"There is someone locked up under the clock tower. Who could it be?"

Magison frowned.

Whoever this person is, he/she is in a dangerous situation.

The intelligence obtained from the GCPD shows that it has been more than ten days since Bane attacked Gotham, and the Riddler must have placed the recording here for more than seven days.

If there is no food and water down there, it is likely that...

There was no time to think about it anymore, McGison jumped out of the secret passage.

After about ten meters of free fall, Magison fell to the floor.

What comes into view is a room filled with photo albums of all generations of the Wayne family.

The two rows of bookcases are full of photo albums.

Some places are trophies or certificates of honor obtained by the Wayne family.

The most exquisite one is the clay statue of Thomas Wayne, which is placed in the first cabinet of the bookcase on the left.

"Um...who?"

Just as Magison was observing his surroundings, a weak voice came over...

(There is only the last day left before the 5th)
