Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

Gotham, the mayor's residence, the thief Black Crow held the dazzling blue stone in his hand, slowly turned around and looked at the mayor of Gotham huddled in the corner, and took a step forward.

"Wait! Wait a minute! You have already taken away the Zhe Ai Blue Stone, why are you coming here?"

When the mayor saw this, he immediately trembled with fear.

The Phantom Thief Black Crow in front of me is not the same kind of person as the Phantom Thief Kidd. This guy kills people without batting an eyelid. I am afraid that the other party will not even take his reputation as mayor in mind.

"Kaitan Thief Black Crow, you probably haven't forgotten that I've called the GCPD, right? Director Gordon will be here in a few minutes. If you run with the gems now, you still have a chance to escape, but if you want to It won’t necessarily matter what I do.”

The mayor of Gotham pretended to be calm and tried to use the GCPD to scare away the thief Black Crow.

"laugh!"

When the thief Black Crow heard this, he let out a disdainful sneer and said, "I dare to kill someone in the mayor of Gotham's house. Do you think I will be afraid of the GCPD?"

"Even if Jim Gordon brings his men in here in a minute, how long do you think it will take me to kill you?"

The mayor's pupils shrank, his throat made a swallowing motion unconsciously, he looked at the Phantom Thief Black Crow and suggested: "Killing me will not do you any good. Aren't you planning to kill the Phantom Thief Kidd? I can order the entire city The city is fully searching for Kaito Kidd.”

Although his heart is filled with the fear of death, after all, he is a person who can be the mayor of Gotham. Regardless of his ability and charisma, he can more or less stabilize his position at critical moments.

"How about making a deal? I'll help you find Kaitou Kidd. No one will care if you want to kill him, but don't hurt me. That would be harmful to both you and me."

The mayor forced a smile.

Isn't it just a matter of making deals with criminals to save your life? It's a trivial matter. This is what the previous mayors did.

However, to his surprise, the Phantom Thief Black Crow had an unmoved expression on his face after hearing his proposal.

Neither spoke nor reacted.

The mayor of Gotham was heartbroken.

Finally, the Phantom Thief Black Crow spoke, and his words were like a basin of biting cold water poured on the mayor's head.

"Find Kaitou Kidd? His arrest warrant has been posted across the country for several months. Have you found any clues? Even those losers from the GCPD want to catch Kaitou Kidd, unless it takes a hundred years!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the strange thief Black Crow suddenly rushed to the mayor, and in the latter's horrified eyes, he stuffed a piece of cloth he took out from nowhere into his mouth.

Then he took out a black opaque bag and put it on the mayor's head.

"I've wasted too much time here, Mr. Mayor... But you're right. Killing you really won't do me any good. I was never prepared to kill you from the beginning."

Phantom Thief Black Crow whispered beside the mayor.

About three minutes later.

boom!

Suddenly there was a loud noise, and the locked door of the mayor's residence was violently removed. GCPD Chief Jim Gordon led a team of police officers to rush in furiously.

What appeared in front of them was a mess in the collection room.

Fortunately, after the police searched the corpses all over the ground, they found no trace of the mayor, which made Gordon feel a little relieved.

Since the prisoner did not kill the mayor immediately but kidnapped him, it means that at least in a short period of time, the mayor's life will not be in danger. The other party must have other purposes for kidnapping the mayor.

"Quick! Search every corner here and strengthen patrols nearby. The criminal may not have escaped yet!"

Gordon shouted orders to the police officers.

One by one, the police officers dispersed and began a blanket search in the mayor's residence.

After Gordon waited anxiously for more than ten minutes, his cell phone suddenly rang. The call was from one of the members of the patrol team.

Gordon immediately answered the phone, and then an intermittent report came to his ears.

"Sir...sir, the mayor, he...he..."

"What happened to the mayor? Who is the kidnapper? What does the other party want?"

Upon hearing the mayor, Gordon's eyes suddenly changed and he asked anxiously.

The patrol member hesitated for a moment, then turned and said in a deep voice to the top of the tall building behind him.

"I'm afraid you need to come and take a look at this in person."

Hearing this, Gordon suddenly felt something bad in his heart, but he still kept calm and asked.

"Where is the location?"

"Bell Tower."

——

Gotham, Diamond District, an Italian restaurant called "Totti".

"It tastes good. The applewood-smoked grilled lamb chops here are the best in Gotham."

Dean asked with a smile on his face as he looked across at Cassandra who was devouring her food.

I don’t know if it’s because the child often doesn’t have enough to eat, or because the food in this restaurant is really good. From the first dish, Cassandra’s mouth didn’t stop.

She also eats quite boldly, throwing all her knives and forks aside and eating directly, which is in sharp contrast to Dean who has already developed a dining habit.

After all, there was no concept of tableware in Cassandra's wandering life, and it would take time for her to accept eating without hands.

Even though it doesn't look very harmonious in this situation, I have to say that it tastes delicious when you eat it like this.

Vaguely, some guests around them cast strange looks at them, but Dean and Cassandra completely ignored them.

"Dear viewers, this is Gotham Channel 7. I am the host Recy White. I want to interrupt you with a piece of news urgently."

At this moment, a piece of news suddenly came in from the hanging TV installed in almost every restaurant in Gotham.

At first, no one in the restaurant cared about the news, and few even raised their heads to watch TV.

However, when the host's next sentence was broadcast, everyone's attention was attracted.

"A few hours ago, a criminal who called himself 'Phantom Thief Black Crow' issued a notice to the Gotham Mayor's Mansion to steal the Blue Stone "Eye of the Sky". But unlike Kid, this Phantom Thief Brutally killed all the guards and bodyguards in the mayor's mansion, and even kidnapped the mayor."

"After the GCPD's full search, the mayor has been recovered. He was finally found on the clock tower ten minutes' drive from the mayor's residence. The strange thief Black Crow used a rope to hang the mayor upside down on the dial of the clock tower, and In the center of the mayor's tightly tied hands is a letter from the Phantom Thief Black Crow."

"The content of the letter is: At any time tomorrow, I will hide the Eye in the Sky somewhere in the Iceberg Casino. Try to steal it from me, the unworthy Phantom Thief Kidd!

Signed: Phantom Thief Black Crow"

(Youzi has suffered from gastroenteritis in the past few days. Although it is not a big problem, the pain is really uncomfortable, and I just asked for leave, so I don’t have the nerve to send a leave request. I originally thought that I would be fine if I took two days. Yes, my stomach hurts more and more. I just took some medicine the day before yesterday. I feel a little stronger today)
