Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 71 Is it him or her? (Please collect it! Please read it!)

"Can you explain it to me, O'Kilwe?"

Penguin's tone was normal, and his movements in holding the photo were gentle and slow.

Under his gaze, although there was a hint of surprise on O'Kilwe's face, he did not see any panic or dodge.

Until Penguin showed the photo to O'Kilwe, the latter looked at the person in the photo carefully and then shook his head and said.

"Boss, I'm sure I haven't seen this person in my impression."

That's right, the photo that Penguin took out was not the man who was silenced by O'Kilwe.

"Damn old Penguin, you almost thought there was something wrong, but in the end you actually wanted to defraud me?"

O'Kilwe was secretly resentful in his heart. Fortunately, he had a good psychological quality and suppressed his uneasiness without showing any suspicious mood swings.

Otherwise, I would have been deceived by Penguin just now.

He could even guess that he was definitely not the only one who had been asked this question. I was afraid that all the members in the room had been tested by the Penguin.

"Really? Isn't he the person you killed in the casino?"

Penguin asked, pretending to be surprised.

"The bodies seem to be somewhat similar, but their faces are very different. Someone must have misjudged them."

O'Kilwe said without hesitation: "I beat that man to death in the casino because he cheated while playing blackjack. According to the rules, I couldn't let him live."

If he dared to kill someone in the Iceberg Casino, O'Kilwe had naturally prepared his excuse in advance. He asked his men to play blackjack before entering the casino and then pretend to cheat.

The reason for doing this is because Okiervi's subordinate is not an insider of the Penguin Gang, but a manpower developed by himself. There are many similar existences, hidden in every corner of Gotham, everyone There is a single line of contact with O'Kilwe.

Obviously, it is impossible for an outsider to see the casino manager for no reason, unless there is some necessary factor, such as saying Qian.

Of course it can't be true, because this is the fatal rule of the Iceberg Casino. No matter who it is, he will die if he cheats.

As long as O'Kilwe's men make a few obscure and strange actions in the surveillance records, making others think that he is cheating, they can then interview O'Kilwe without being suspected.

In the end, it was clarified that it was a misunderstanding, and Okierway did not break Penguin rules by letting him go.

It's a pity that all this is just a lie by Okierwei. He never intended to let the subordinate leave alive. If Penguin asked about killing people in the casino, Okierwei also had a perfect reason.

"The casino still has all the records from yesterday, including the scene of him cheating."

O'Kilwe said to Penguin.

"Well...that's what happened. Since you said that, someone must have seen it wrong."

Penguin nodded thoughtfully, seeming to believe what O'Kilwe said.

"I'm very satisfied with your plan to deal with Kaitou Kidd. You will be solely responsible for its execution after that, because my focus will be on another thing and I won't have time to deal with the thief."

Having said this, Penguin's eyes instantly turned cold.

"Lark and Graytard have been following me for more than ten years, and now they are killed for no apparent reason. If I don't even show any sign, I'm afraid the whole Gotham will be in chaos!"

He looked at the other subordinates in the room and said coldly: "Gathering all the crime families in Gotham, we are going to have a party for the first time in a long time..."

-

At the same time, at the entrance of Chandler Manor.

A dozen reporters gathered here and were interviewing the haggard Mrs. Chandler.

The camera flash clicked on.

Mrs. Chandler stretched out her hand to cover her eyes, her face was calm and her temperament was calm.

Although her complexion is not as good as before, and the wrinkles on her face are clearly visible, the graceful and luxurious demeanor of the big family is still well maintained.

"Mrs. Chandler, you seem to be very calm after Kidd stole the heirloom of the Chandler family. Don't you resent Kidd?"

One of the young female reporters with long black hair and straight hair asked.

"It is rumored that every time Kaitou Kidd steals a treasure, he will return it to the original owner after a period of time. If Kaitou Kidd does not change his habits, then the dragon egg ruby ​​necklace should also be returned."

Mrs. Chandler smiled slightly and replied: "Since the necklace will always come back to me, why should I resent Kaito Kidd?"

There is only one person who really needs to be resented!

Mrs. Chandler thought angrily.

"You have such a broad mind, and you are worthy of being the current head of the Chandler family."

The female reporter said with a look of longing, and then continued to ask: "Mrs. Chandler, the first public exhibition of the dragon egg ruby ​​necklace is organized by the Chandler family and the Cobot family."

"The current sole heir of the Cobblepot family, Oswald Cobblepot, is the leader of Gotham's largest criminal group and has multiple criminal records. Why would you want to cooperate with someone with such a reputation?"

"Some people once suspected that there was some kind of inside story in organizing the exhibition. It might even be under the coercion of Copot that the Chandler family had to agree to this cooperation. Is this true?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Chandler's expression changed and she said anxiously: "No comment!"

"Okay, I have one last question, what can you see from the sky?"

Mrs. Chandler looked at the female reporter puzzledly, not understanding what the other party wanted to ask.

She slowly raised her head, and her pupils suddenly shrank when she looked at the sky.

I saw a strange white balloon appearing in the sky at some point and gradually falling towards the ground. There seemed to be some box-like object attached to the bottom of the balloon.

On the balloon, there is an extremely eye-catching cartoon avatar of Phantom Thief Kidd!

Mrs. Chandler seemed to think of something for a moment, and quickly lowered her head to look at the female reporter who had just asked.

However, as soon as he raised his head, the reporter had disappeared. When asked about other reporters and photographers, no one knew the female reporter, and no one noticed her departure.

Mrs. Chandler initially tried to look for the man in the crowd below, but she soon gave up the idea.

If Kaitou Kidd was so easy to find, he wouldn't be so active that he hasn't been caught yet.

But... recalling the young female reporter just now who was wearing professional attire, with a curvy figure, fair skin, good looks and a nice voice, Mrs. Chandler couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Is Kaitou Kid really a "he" and not a "she"?

After a while, the balloon fell to a height that Mrs. Chandler could reach.

She took the box tied under the balloon and opened it to take a look.

Sure enough, what was inside was the dragon egg ruby ​​necklace.
