Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 236 Scapegoat
In the monitoring room, Maggison cut off the communication, and looked at the monitoring screen with a playful smile.

Around him, a dozen or so policemen lay sprawled on the ground, snoring once or twice from time to time.

After Maggison collided with Jesso just now, he came straight to the monitoring room.

No one noticed his movements.

The reason is simple, the location of the monitoring room is just opposite to the pink lion diamond vault.

Everyone knows that the Kaitou Kidd is a person who will never give up when he sees the target, so as long as he guards the various passages of the vault, he will not go wrong.

Other places are naturally neglected a lot.

While McKesson hadn't expected George to play the surprise game, it didn't affect his plans at all.

Because he had no intention of stealing the pink lion diamond.

Not that he wanted to give up his goals.

But because...

The pink lion diamond here is fake!
Viper proposed that the strange thief Kidd had already been mixed into the police not long ago, which means that Maggison's identity had not been suspected before that.

As a police officer, McKesson can investigate at will.

Then he discovered a very interesting thing.

The collections in this museum, except for the unknown pink lion diamond in the vault, are all fakes without exception!

Magison would collect intelligence in advance before finalizing the target, so he knew the basic information of this museum.

Although there are no particularly precious collections, most of them are genuine unearthed cultural relics.

Every collection has a source, and it is not difficult to check.

Then the truth is very simple.

There is a ghost in the museum!
McKesson is [-] percent sure.

And this ghost is most likely the weird curator.

Relying on his special status, he sold the collections in the museum to the black market or smugglers.

Because these collections themselves are not of high value, they have not attracted attention.

Until now, the museum has been largely gutted by its director.

With such a large amount, the amount of smuggling is not low, and it has offended so many original owners of the collection.

The curator's ability to survive to this day is not small.

The cultural relics smuggling case in the museum has nothing to do with Maggison, and he is not interested.

There was just one thing that he had to care about.

So many curators of cultural relics dare to sell the priceless pink lion diamond... Could it really be stored intact in the vault?
Even if McKesson hadn't been inside to see it, he could tell the diamonds inside couldn't be real.

Maybe the pink lion was still here a few days ago, but when the owner of the museum saw his notice letter, it might not be so.

Usually, people judge others by themselves, so no matter whether Kaitou Kidd will return the stolen items, the curator will not believe it, just because he himself will definitely exchange diamonds for benefits.

It is true that Kaito Kidd will not give up his actions, but it is absolutely impossible for Kaito Kidd to steal a fake diamond.

In fact, when Magison guessed this, he could already leave a note and leave quietly.

He didn't because there were other things that interested him.

That was the information I heard from Chen Long before.

McKesson knew that New York had a shrine to Karma Taj, so it wasn't unthinkable to bump into a mage or two here and there.

But Chen Long is obviously not a disciple from the Holy of Holies, and he is not even a mage.

Magison didn't notice any fluctuations in magic power in him, so it can be said that Chen Long is just an ordinary person.

Although the physical fitness of this ordinary person is a bit too good.

However, it is such an ordinary person, but what comes out of his mouth are "spells", "magic power", "can't let it fall into the hands of dark forces", these are obviously words from the mysterious side world.

It would be impossible to say that Maggison was not at all curious.

Well, he actually just wanted to see what the legendary charm was, and see if it was worth being stolen.

Naturally, the value of magic items cannot be compared with an ordinary diamond.

It can just make up for the loss of the Maggison Pink Lion diamond being stolen and sold by the curator.

That's right, in the eyes of Maggison, the pink lion diamond is already his thing.

"Okay, now, please come and cause a commotion instead of me."

Maggison stared at the Viper who was still watching around without knowing it in the surveillance screen, and said with a smile.

When Chen Long brought Xiaoyu and Viper into the hall, he had observed them carefully.

Xiaoyu is just an 11-year-old girl, nothing worth noting.

The Viper, on the other hand, is very different.

This woman's temperament is not simple, and there is a lot of strength hidden in her seemingly weak body.

Her habits are even more intriguing. She shifts her eyes in an extremely subtle manner, and she cleverly avoids places where there are most plainclothes policemen while walking.

And the lingering look in his eyes, the wariness of all "police officers"!

McKesson was sure that if this woman was not a killer agent, she must be a colleague.

"If I'm right, you should be the one who advises George...Of course, it doesn't matter if it's not."

"Anyway, you've been selected. Let me see how much police attention you can attract."

At this moment, Viper didn't know that his situation had become very dangerous because of someone's design.

She used most of her mind to observe the surroundings, and she didn't even know that the direction she was heading happened to be the vault.

It seems that she really doesn't know the exact location of the vault, but that's not important anymore.

"This Miss Detective has been going around in circles from the beginning to now. Isn't she tired? Being a detective is really hard."

Some distance behind the Viper, Xiaoyu was still hiding in the crowd, peeping at the Viper through the gap between the adults' legs.

"It's been a while since Phantom Thief Kidd was seen through his disguise, why is it still as if nothing happened in the museum?"

Gradually, Viper began to notice something was wrong.

"It's already a quarter past midnight. The Kaitou Kidd has already shown up anyway. It's impossible for him to be late."

An ominous premonition suddenly surged in Viper's heart, the current situation is too weird.

Ok?
Suddenly, from the corner of Viper's eye, he saw an astonishing scene.

At some point, a large number of plainclothes police officers had gathered near her, and the patrol teams in the outer passages appeared much more frequently.

Could it be that... Kaitou Kidd has appeared and is nearby?

wrong!

Viper's pupils shrank, and his nerves tensed up.

They are coming for me!
