Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

"Okay, no kidding."

Dean waved his hand and said casually: "I understand your mood, Dick."

"You are from the Wayne family. God knows how many valuable treasures in this city belong to your family. They might be stolen by Kaitou Kidd someday, so it is normal to feel uncomfortable when hearing other people discuss Kaitou Kidd. .”

"What? I didn't think so!"

Dick was stunned when he heard this and subconsciously retorted.

"I just don't think a criminal should be welcomed into the community."

He stared at Dean solemnly, his attitude serious.

"Dean, what do you think? Do you like Kaito Kidd as much as others?"

"What I want to say is that you are right! I agree with your view. Criminals will always be criminals. Kaitou Kidd will be caught sooner or later if he is so arrogant. Then everyone will see his true face."

Under Dick's gaze, Dean shook his head heavily and said.

"That's right, I... the GCPD and Batman and Robin will not let Kaitou Kid go unpunished!"

With Dean's approval, Dick's face suddenly lit up.

"But at first I thought you would like Kaitou Kidd's group. After all, that guy's appearance and techniques are very much like a magician."

Dick shrugged and casually mentioned: "You are also a magician, so you should have some affinity with him, although I don't know much about the magician's circle."

"Who said we can feel close to each other if we are both magicians?"

Dean raised his eyebrows and glared with disdain on his face.

"Haven't you ever heard the saying, 'Enemies in the same profession'? And you can also be called a magician in two seconds? He just uses a dummy, smoke bombs and other tricks. These are just the most basic introductory techniques in magic. That’s all, if I were Kaitou Kidd, I would definitely be able to do better than him.”

After listening to Dean's brazen speech, Dick fell into silence for a moment.

But from a certain perspective, Dean's words are quite convincing. On one side is a talented magician who became famous at a young age, and on the other side is a mysterious thief who has just appeared.

The latter's current intelligence is very limited and his demonstrated abilities are too little, while the former's strength has been tested at the Gotham Theater and he does have the capital to be arrogant.

"Well, you're awesome."

It took a long time for Dick to utter these words.

Jingle Bell--

At this time, the class bell rang, and a very smart middle-aged teacher walked into the classroom.

Dean turned around and sat up in time, entering a state of study.

At least that's how it looks on the surface.

"Did I be too grandiose just now? Did Dick's mention of being a magician make me nervous?"

With his back to Dick, Dean thought deeply in his mind.

"Don't think too much! Keep a poker face. Dick has no reason to doubt me. So what if I'm a magician? There are so many magicians in the world. It's impossible for this suspicion to fall on me."

With his mind determined, Dean temporarily suppressed the thoughts in his mind. He didn't need to distance himself now, just stay normal.

Later, Dick was also brainstorming.

"I think I'm simply crazy. Kaitou Kidd can't be Dean! It's all because last night Alfred accidentally said something about a classmate of mine who seems to be a magician, which made me have this completely unreasonable and absurd thought. speculation."

"I must have been too lax some time ago, which led to my failure to capture Kaitou Kidd yesterday, which made me a little nervous."

So, after simple self-psychological counseling, both of them thought that they were overthinking.

Time passed little by little, and soon it was four o'clock in the afternoon.

As the school bell rang, the teacher on the podium closed the book as quickly as possible, said get out of class was over and walked out of the classroom with smooth movements and no sloppiness at all.

It is impossible to drag Tang down, not even in this life.

Dean cleared his desk casually and was about to leave the school, when he suddenly heard someone calling him.

"Hey! Thaston, Grayson, do you want to play ball together?"

Turning around, I saw a boy with a middle parted hair wearing a black top and gray suspenders, holding a basketball around his waist, waving to Dean and Dick. There were three or five boys beside him.

"Not today, Ai Kun, I have very important activities tonight."

Dick was the first to refuse the invitation, and it was obvious that he was anxious.

Because just after saying this, he jumped out of the window and ran straight to the school gate.

Of course, the classroom is on the first floor, so there is no possibility of falling.

Seeing that he was missing a playing partner, Ai Kun looked at Dean expectantly.

"Oh! I have to go back to practice magic now. You know, I have to prepare for the school dance performance next month, so I can't play with you."

Dean spread his hands and said helplessly.

"That's such a shame."

Ai Kun looked a little disappointed, but he couldn't force others to join him, so he went to the stadium with a few boys around him.

Dean didn't take this episode seriously. He returned home as quickly as possible. He had one very important thing to do in the evening.

That is to give away the "Angel's Blood Tears" ruby.

Dean put on a set of ordinary casual clothes, put on a peaked cap, and then left home with a few spare masks.

At night, on the 29th floor of the Gotham Gazette Building, there is the office of star female reporter Vicki Vale.

Vicky stopped the press release she had been writing for a long time, stretched, checked it several times and confirmed that there was no major problem, then she showed a satisfied smile.

It must be said that these two days were one of her most glorious days.

Because of Kaito Kidd's front-page news, the sales of the Gotham Gazette newspaper skyrocketed, and Vicky's reputation as a reporter also increased a lot.

This matter started a few days ago. At that time, the Kidd case had not yet occurred. In order to increase his exposure as much as possible, Dean sent notice letters to all major media organizations in Gotham.

But at that time, no one had heard of the name at all, and the contents of the notice letter were also written in a fog. Naturally, few people took the notice letter seriously.

However, Vicky Weir is an alternative.

She has personally interviewed Two-Face, Penguin, Riddler, Scarecrow and many other super criminals in Arkham Asylum. When she first saw Kidd's notice letter, she thought it looked like something the Riddler would write. That kind of thing.

Of course, Edward Nygma, the Riddler, was still imprisoned in Arkham Asylum at this time, so he couldn't be the one who wrote the notice.

This is also the view of most people. Everyone thinks that this notice letter is a prank.

Only Vicki Weir didn't think so. Even though she wasn't sure, she felt it was worth a gamble.

Luckily she made the right bet, not only was she one of the only reporters to go to the museum, but she also got the best angle to get a close-up of Kid the Phantom Thief.

This makes Kaitou Kid's theft of Angel Blood and Tears almost an exclusive story for Vicky.
