Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 166 Deathstroke (Part [-])

Gotham, Old Town.

Near the center of Riverside, Maggison and Pamela emerge from the ground.

It is very close to Miller Harbor, and the roof of the riverside center even overlooks Miller Harbor.

At this time, the night had dissipated, and the dawn sun shone on the ground.

"Where are we going now?"

Pamela asked excitedly.

"Robinson Park."

Maggison said flatly.

"Robinson Park? But Robinson Park is not in the old town."

Pamela tilted her head, not understanding what Magison meant.

"I'm talking about you, Pamela, you should go back to Robinson Park as soon as possible, while I stay in the old town."

"what!"

Pamela frowned.

Before she could refute, Maggison continued.

"Barbara didn't find Gordon at the GCPD headquarters yesterday, and you didn't come back overnight, so she will definitely come out to look for you today."

"We have already told Gordon the news that Barbara is here, and they will meet soon, so what will you do then?"

Maggison's rhetorical question stunned Pamela.

"So, the most important thing you should do now is to return to Robinson Park as soon as possible, and it is best to find Barbara before she leaves."

"Ok."

Pamela muttered dissatisfied.

Under Magison's gaze, Pamela reluctantly left the ground again and returned to Robinson Park.

"Now, it's time to solve the mystery of the riddle."

At this time, Maggison took out three riddles of the Riddler.

What no one knew was that when he finished reading the riddle yesterday, he already knew what the answer was.

If you want to ask his personal opinion, he just thinks these three riddles are not ordinary nonsense.

But no matter how you pull it, there is only one correct explanation.

This is different from McKesson who sometimes leaves puns for insurance. The answer to the riddle of the Riddler is usually only a noun.

As for whether this noun is related to the event itself, it depends on how big your brain is.

The answers to the riddles were not difficult to guess, and McKesson was sure Gordon had solved at least one or two of them.

The real challenge is tying the puzzles together.

And that's what he was thinking about.

"You're trying to get me back. You're struggling to get me when I'm lost. What am I?"

The answer is - time.

"I can be part of a group, but I can never fit in. What am I?"

The answer to this mystery is - the individual.

So, what do time and individuals represent?

What does it have to do with the Knights Arena?
The time may be matched with the timer, but what does that body mean?

McKesson hadn't figured this out last night.

But later, when he set his sights beyond the Knights Dome and expanded to the entire Gotham, he really suddenly became enlightened.

The thing that best embodies the concept of time is the clock.

So disregarding the third riddle, the location pointed to by the answer is an individual with a clock.

The first thing McKesson thought of was the clock tower in the old town of Gotham.

That's right, the purpose of his coming to the old town was to visit the clock tower, and maybe the third riddle would be solved there.

"The more you cut me the faster I grow. What am I?"

McKesson thought of wounds, gaps, boreholes... The riddle was a bit broad, and he couldn't read the riddler's mind.

Only when you come to the bell tower can you make the next step of speculation.

On the other hand, Pamela felt something was wrong as soon as she returned to Robinson Park.

Barbara is out of the park!

And there was no sign that Barbara had slept through the night.

Pamela was in a bad mood, and immediately closed her eyes to connect her spirit to the surrounding plants.

This would allow her to see sporadic images from last night.

Then she saw Barbara fighting a man in a red and black tights.

This man is the death knell!

The fight between the two didn't take too long, as Barbara was clearly outmatched.

It wasn't long before Barbara was slashed in the arm by Deathstroke.

In Pamela's sight, Barbara knew that she was defeated by Death Knell, so she wanted to retreat wholeheartedly, and turned around and ran away by taking advantage of the vacancy exposed by Death Knell when she was cut.

She led the death knell into the trap set by Pamela with her ability, and successfully trapped the death knell, but this was only temporary.

Without stopping for a moment, Barbara ran straight out of Robinson Park.

The death knell broke free from the trap unhurriedly, and did not show any annoyance or extreme emotions about Batgirl's escape.

He just walked slowly along the trail where Barbara had left.

Just like a very patient hunter who waits until the prey reveals a well-known flaw before making a bold move...

At this time, the screen is also broken.

Pamela came back to herself.

"Someone is after Barbara, she is in danger now."

"Should I tell Maggison about this?"

After thinking about it, Pamela did not choose to tell Magison, but went to rescue Barbara herself.

This is actually a very unwise decision.

If she used her ability in the urban area in broad daylight, she might be seen by the GCPD. By then, everyone would know that Pamela was Poison Ivy, and the peaceful life she had so hard to achieve would no longer exist.

At this time, it is actually the best choice for Maggison to save Barbara. With Pamela's help, Maggison can come to Barbara in a very timely manner.

Then there is a clichéd story of a hero saving the beauty.

Maybe the window paper between Maggison and Barbara, which has never been pierced, will be torn like this.

All are happy.

Pooh!
That might be the case under normal circumstances, but Pamela is well aware of the real crux of the two men.

Barbara hopes that the two people who love each other can be honest with each other, while Maggison obviously hopes to give each other more secret space.

So either Maggison can tell Barbara that he is Phantom Thief Kidd, or Barbara can completely ignore what Maggison is hiding from her, and the two will really come together.

As for whether the two of them can meet the corresponding requirements now, Pamela dare not guess casually.

Not to mention that Maggison is now charged with saving millions of people in Gotham, and Pamela, public or private, cannot distract Maggison.

It's definitely not because of worrying that Maggison and Barbara have confirmed their relationship, and Pamela herself is really completely hopeless.

So, Pamela kept tracking Barbara's escape route through the perspective of plants.

Until entering the Giordano Botanical Garden in Burnley.

"Barbara is as smart as ever."

Pamela smiled with satisfaction.

With Death Knell's tracking technology, it's only a matter of time to keep up with Barbara, so before Death Knell finds her, you must let others find you.

That is Pamela.

Barbara knows that Poison Ivy can observe things through plants, and being in the botanical garden can greatly increase the probability of Pamela finding herself.

Turns out she was right.

Indeed, Pamela soon discovered where Barbara was hiding.

But the bad news is that the death knell has also arrived nearby...

　I'm sorry, everyone, I didn't do what I agreed on, because I had a fight with my parents tonight. Although it's true that I'm too young and too impulsive, I just can't accept my biological father's denial of my life. Maybe he just said it casually at the time, and he often said similar things at ordinary times, but I used to pretend that I didn't hear it, and I don't know what happened today, but I couldn't hold it back. It subsided quickly, but time has passed. If I hadn't been so impulsive, I wouldn't have delayed the update. If I didn't do what I said, I still have to make up for it.This time I won't say that there will be four updates tomorrow, and three consecutive days and three updates tomorrow will still be guaranteed.In addition, I am currently studying the questions of subject one. If there is no problem with the appointment, I can take the test on August [-]th. I will have more time code words after the test of subject one. At that time, I should be able to try the whole plus More regular.
