Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 53 March 3 (Please collect it! Please read it!)

A week later.

3 month 10 day.

This is a special day for the Gotham Museum of Natural History.

Because at midnight on this day, Kaito Kidd will come to steal the priceless treasure "Dragon Egg Ruby Necklace".

On this day, almost all the media in Gotham sent reporters and photographers to the Museum of Natural History. As long as they could take a close-up of Kidd, their subsequent newspaper sales would increase by more than ten times.

Vicki Vale's exclusive news about Kaito Kidd had already made Gotham Gazette a huge profit, and other media outlets, large and small, were naturally jealous.

On the surface, the reporters greeted each other with smiles, but in fact, they were secretly gearing up.

Everyone wants to take the most perfect picture. Every reporter present is a competitor, and they may even deliberately block other people's shots.

Even if you can interview Kaitou Kidd in person, that would be an excellent opportunity to become famous.

No journalist wants to give this opportunity to anyone else.

The GCPD team also had a solemn atmosphere and firm eyes. They entered the museum earlier than everyone else to replace the vigil police officers from last night.

Since Barbara deciphered the contents of the notice letter, there were only a few police officers guarding the museum between March 3 and 1, about fifty people.

Today, Gordon brought more than 400 guards and set up a dragnet around the cultural relics exhibition hall and the jungle exhibition hall, just waiting for Kaito Kidd to show up.

In order to ensure that Kaitou Kidd could be successfully captured this time, Gordon even called in more than a dozen special police officers from the SWAT unit. This unit is the elite ace of the GCPD and can be called one of the most powerful armed forces in Gotham City... one.

This unit is generally only used when dealing with particularly difficult super villains.

This shows how determined Gordon is to capture Phantom Thief Kidd as soon as possible.

In addition to reporters and police, the people of Gotham were equally positive.

They seemed to be very interested in Kaitou Kidd, a high-profile thief, especially after the Pink Dream money laundering scandal came to light.

For most Gotham citizens, counterfeiting of diamonds is irrelevant, since they can't afford it anyway.

But the nature of black money laundering is different, because the black money is likely to be obtained through drug dealing, the black market for organs, arms smuggling and even human trafficking.

As far as Gotham's environment is concerned, it can be said that it is closely related to the people at the bottom, seriously endangering their personal safety.

As a thief, Kaitou Kidd has become a key player in exposing the money laundering industry chain. How can such a strong contrast not make people curious?

Especially the young people in the new era of Gotham, they believe that Kaitou Kidd is not only a simple criminal, but even a hero, using his own way to expose the darkness of society and help those who really need help.

Although from a legal perspective, Kaitou Kidd is an out-and-out criminal, not everyone regards legal principles as truth.

In short, no matter how Kaitou Kidd is characterized, it cannot change the fact that thousands of ordinary citizens gathered at the museum at this moment just to see Kaitou Kidd with their own eyes.

In the cultural relics exhibition hall, the 'Dragon Egg Ruby Necklace' was covered by a transparent glass cover and placed alone in the middle of the exhibition hall. It was separated by a cordon within a radius of three meters and no one was allowed to approach.

The glass cover that protects the necklace is made of the world's most cutting-edge bulletproof glass technology, with strength comparable to titanium alloy and hardness no weaker than chromium, but it is not produced by Wayne Group.

The company that makes this glass cover is Lex Group.

Before today, the blockade outside the necklace was actually only one meter. It was not until the day announced by Kaitou Kid that it was expanded to three meters.

Outside the blockade, a dozen heavily armed SWAT police officers stood side by side in a complete circle, leaving no gaps in the middle. There was no vent even on the ceiling here.

Gordon gave them a death order. No matter what happened, whether it was a power outage or a fire, they were not allowed to leave without permission from him.

Even if you go to the toilet, you must ensure that at least two people go together.

You are also not allowed to believe the orders coming from the walkie-talkie. You can only obey his instructions if you read the code in front of you and confirm that it is not Gordon pretending to be Kaitou Kidd.

Make sure no one has access to the necklace throughout the night.

"I don't believe that Kaitou Kidd can still steal the necklace with this arrangement."

Harvey Bullock glanced at the encirclement in front of him and thought triumphantly.

"If he wants to get close to the necklace, he has to fight against more than a dozen heavily armed SWAT police at once. Who can do this except Batman?"

Yes, the personal protection solution for this necklace was proposed to Gordon by Bullock.

At first, Gordon thought this was a bit too extreme and not very efficient. He was just competing for time with Kidd, the thief.

But then I thought about it, Kaitou Kidd often likes to play cards out of the box, and using this simple and crude method might actually have a miraculous effect.

After all, no matter what tricks Kaitou Kidd pulls off, he is still here to steal the necklace.

So Gordon waved his hand and agreed to Bullock's proposal, and also asked the GCPD's strongest special police to protect the necklace at close range.

"Do you really think that method will work?"

At the same time, Dick looked at Bullock and the encirclement from the corner of the exhibition hall, pressing his earphones with one hand and whispering.

On the other side, in the jungle exhibition hall, Barbara came to a place with few people and also pressed the earphone to respond.

"You mean Bullock's plan of holding hands and forming a circle? I can only say that if it were me, I would never use such a stupid plan."

"Then why don't you tell your father? I remember that you are not the temporary consultant of the GCPD in this incident?"

Dick asked.

"Please, don't you really think that my father will listen to me? Besides, I didn't say that the method was bad. I just thought it was too stupid. Maybe it actually works?"

Barbara curled her lips and said.

"Okay, then you can tell me now, what did you see when you monitored Dean's house for so many days?"

Dick turned to ask another question.

"……nothing."

"nothing?"

"nothing!"

"really?"

Dick asked suspiciously.

"If you haven't found anything suspicious until now, doesn't that prove Dean's innocence? Why don't you go and take back the monitor?"

Barbara had a hesitant look on her face, and it took her a while to speak.

"The last day, today is the last day! As soon as the Phantom Thief Kidd incident is over, I will go get the camera back."

I recommended a friend’s book. It’s a great historical masterpiece. Both the writing and the conception are much better than mine.
