Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 17

For whatever reason, Daggett hadn't been in the family collection, which deprived McKesson of the perfect candidate for a disguise.

After all, no matter what you want to take, it is easiest for the owner to take it by himself...

The structure of the collection hall is different from the general collection hall. There are not too many collection rooms. In the middle is a circular sightseeing hall, which occupies most of the space on the first floor. There is a large collection room on each side of the hall. In addition to the hall connecting the two collection rooms, there is also an interconnected corridor at the back of the two rooms, which encloses the hall.

But the strange thing is that this cloister is not connected to the outside of the hall, that is to say, after entering the main entrance of the collection hall, one can only enter one of the collection rooms through the hall first, and then reach the cloister.

No one knows why Daggett designed such a quirky corridor in his collection, and he himself is reluctant to say much about it.

The entire collection hall has two floors, each floor is about eight meters high.

When he first saw the situation in the museum, Maggison had only one feeling, that is, everything here is too big, the floor height exceeds the standard, the hall is also inexplicably empty, and all the corridors and corridors are also designed to be abnormally wide.

It seems that the building was purposely made one size bigger.

The second floor is where the collection is placed. A curved wooden staircase extends from both sides of the hall on the first floor to connect the two floors. When you go up to the second floor, there is a long circular corridor around the floor. There are two collection rooms about five meters apart, and the two rooms face each other, a total of twelve collection rooms.

The two collection rooms on the first floor add up to fourteen. Each collection room is divided into two parts, one part is the area guarded by the police, and the other part is the location for storing collections. The door is separated, the inside is in the state of a secret room, and an infrared alarm system is also installed.

Daggett's wealth is much worse than Wayne's. Most of his collections are "ordinary things" worth about a million dollars, and the number is not large, only about a hundred pieces, the highest value That is, the gold-green cat's eye, which was sold at an auction price of 100 million US dollars.

Although in terms of value, this gold-green cat's eye is much worse than Adam's Star. After all, Adam's Star is the largest sapphire in the world, and it is a national treasure. Although gold-green cat's eyes are rare, they are not the most expensive. opal.

But this does not mean that the golden green cat's eye is not worth stealing by Maggison. In fact, judging from Maggison's own aesthetics, this gem is far more beautiful than the Adam's Star. As a collection, he is more willing to choose Golden green cat eyes.

Of course, it will be more suitable as a gift, because this opal is inlaid on a necklace...

The manpower arranged by GCPD in the collection hall can indeed be called a vast network. Gordon brought a total of more than 1000 two hundred police officers. After all, this place is not big, and it is useless to bring more people.

Among them, 150 police officers set up a cordon around the collection hall to prevent irrelevant personnel from approaching. Among the remaining hundreds of people, 200 police officers drove [-] speedboats to patrol the sea, and [-] people were also deployed on the beach. Guard the nearby coast, and there are three helicopters hovering in the sky, equipped with three snipers.

This battle is almost like a war.

The last more than 300 people are distributed in various locations in the collection hall. There are 20 people at the main entrance, and ten people are arranged in each collection room. Vents, stairs, corridors, and rooftops are all manned. At least three people are guaranteed at each point. Police guards.

The last time he was caught by Kaito Kidd because he only allowed two policemen to clean the back door. Gordon will not make the same mistake again. In order to ensure that Kidd will not pretend to be his companion, as long as If someone is found acting alone, he will be treated as Kaitou Kidd.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Gordon is indeed the one who has replaced the master many times. Even the Gordon in the movie universe is not so easy to deal with. This collection is really not easy to sneak into. It's a pity that I have already entered."

Magison laughed secretly in his heart. After finding out the situation in the collection hall, he disappeared from the patrol team without anyone noticing that he was gone...

"There is still the last half an hour, and you will be surprised."

At the same time, Gordon and Aaron came to the rooftop. They were so confident in their arrangement that even if Batman came, they would never want to complete the infiltration.

If the Kaitou Kidd still wants to steal the Chrysanthemum Cat's Eye, the only way to go is to forcibly break through.

It is impossible for Batman to fight against thousands of policemen by one person.

"I don't think so."

Barbara doesn't think so, let's not talk about whether Batman can do it. If you talk too much about this topic, it will hurt your feelings, so let's talk about Kaitou Kidd.

These days, she has studied countless videos of Kidd stealing Adam's Star, and finally came to the conclusion that Kidd is a criminal who is extremely good at collecting intelligence. Deng, every step seems to be budgeted in advance.

Also, how did Kidd know what Aaron looked and sounded like?Maybe with some press coverage, but Aaron's usual tone isn't something that can be easily imitated.

This only shows one point, that is, Kidd has done a full investigation in advance, and these investigations are meticulous, and it is even possible that the pedestrians he accidentally bumped into while walking on the street were Kidd in disguise.

"So, I think Kidd must have understood the situation here unconsciously, no... Maybe he has already mixed in with us now!"

Barbara said seriously.

"Why do you think so?"

Gordon asked, he knew his daughter was very smart, and sometimes he would accept Barbara's analysis of certain cases.

"What I really want to say is just an intuition!"

Barbara can't convince people if she can't produce evidence that Kaito Kidd is here.

Gordon was silent for a moment, is Kidd really here?Or will he appear in a more incredible way?

All this will be known in half an hour.

"Here is the Gotham Gazette. We are now within the coastal range of the Lower City Island. Opposite the camera is John Daggett's private collection. You can see that a cordon has been pulled up by the GCPD in front. We cannot Get closer there."

Outside the cordon, a female reporter started her work.

"Not long ago, Mr. Daggett and the GCPD received a warning letter from Kaito Kidd at the same time. According to the news just revealed by the police, the warning letter has been cracked, and Kidd will appear from the Atlantic Ocean in half an hour..."

Dozens of media have sent reporters here to broadcast live, plus thousands of people, it is very lively.

"Do you think Kaito Kidd will show up on time? There are a lot of policemen here. If it was me, I probably wouldn't even take a look inside."

"So you are not a phantom thief."

"I believe in Kidd, he will definitely show up."

"If it weren't for his confidence, I don't think he would have released the notice."

In the crowd, several students were discussing. If Barbara were here, she would have found that these students were the ones who talked about Kidd in class a few days ago.

There are many similar students, all excitedly discussing what kind of performance Kidd will make today.

Three ten minutes soon, Gordon stared at the hands on the watch, the hour hand had stopped at the "nine" position, and only the stopwatch was turning little by little.

Once... twice... three times...

Teaser time - it's finally here!
