Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 35 Hey, come with me to see Her Majesty the Queen
"Ah Fu, your thoughts are all written on your face, so you don't need to say these words to perfuse me."

Bruce gasped, doing his thousandth push-up.

This is not his limit, but his current body is not enough to support him to constantly challenge the limit.

"Tell me, what happened?"

Bruce stood up and wiped the sweat off his face with a towel.

Alfred had no choice but to tell him about the Kaitou Kidd.

Unexpectedly, Bruce didn't even have a surprised expression.

"From the time I knew Queen Elizabeth would wear a Tamil ruby, I knew he would not let go of this unparalleled gem."

"Let me see what problem he gave us this time?"

Bruce took the newspaper from Alfred's hand and looked at Kidd's notice letter.

"Q, L, G, B, M, K?"

"Interesting, this notice letter is much more cryptic than the last one."

Alfred nodded and said, "Yes, Master Wayne, I don't have a good idea right now."

"Where is Her Majesty the Queen?"

"According to the time calculation, His Majesty should be in the city government building now, accepting the reception of all the officials and gentry, and then will hold a grand banquet at night, inviting Gotham celebrities to go."

"Including the heads of the major families, right?"

Bruce asked suddenly.

"Yes, sir."

"Have we been invited?"

"In fact, the Wayne family did receive it, but you are not required to attend. Since ancient times, Wayne has never actively participated in political activities. This makes us very different from the family headed by Stark."

"Wayne has always only paid attention to civilians and society, so you don't have to care about this banquet."

Alfred said lightly.

"Don't say that, Ah Fu, Queen Elizabeth is a good monarch, I think it is very necessary for me to attend this banquet, so... hurry up and help me prepare, right now."

"As you wish, sir, but before that I suggest you shave yourself."

"Of course!"

Bruce complied, and continued with his workouts.

The old town, Jim Gordon's residence...in a small bungalow across the street.

Barbara took the "Gotham Gazette" she just bought, ran to the door of this small bungalow, and knocked on the door vigorously.

Soon, Maggison opened the door with twitching eyelids and stared at Barbara.

"Hey, beautiful and charming Miss Gordon, don't you know it's nap time?"

Maggison really didn't expect that not long after returning from the airport, the news began to fly all over the sky.

It's only been a few hours since even the newspapers have been printed. Is the printing factory open?
Barbara didn't care about Maggison's questioning, she said excitedly to Maggison: "Look, the third teaser letter from Phantom Kidd appeared, and it was sent to Queen Elizabeth. What was said really happened!"

Seeing Barbara dangling the newspaper in front of him, Maggison couldn't help but ask, "So?"

Hearing this, Barbara frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of attitude is that? You said this kind of thing, it's like a prediction, aren't you surprised at all?"

"Or……"

Barbara folded her hands, leaned close to Maggison and asked, "Did you know that Kaitou Kidd would send this notice letter early on?"

Maggison felt the aggressive eyes, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Has this girl completely concealed her suspicion now?
But now is not the time for a showdown.

He had to think about how to stop Barbara from doubting herself.

"How could I know what Phantom Thief Kidd would do? I just said it casually that day. I bet I'm not the only one who thought so."

Magison scratched his head and said innocently: "I'm not a fan of detective reasoning, but a fan of magic. I really don't have much interest in monster thieves. It's normal that I don't have any reaction."

A flawless rhetoric.

Reasonable.

Barbara couldn't find any loopholes, so she could only agree in a discouraged way: "Okay, just do what you say."

"Anyway, let's come in first, the sun outside is too dazzling."

Maggison naturally drew Barbara closer to the room.

"I heard you say that Mr. Gordon is in charge of Her Majesty's security, right? Then he must be very busy these days. I guess you haven't had lunch today."

Barbara blushed, she really didn't have much talent for cooking, the food she made couldn't be eaten by a dog, and Gordon wasn't at home these days, so he could only live on pizza.

Originally, she wanted to come here to have a meal with Maggison, but Maggison claimed to go to the teacher to learn magic for a few days, but actually went to work at the airport and came home very late every day.

After eating pizza for several days, Barbara really couldn't eat anymore today, and then she was thinking about going out for a meal with the remaining pocket money, when she saw a newspaper about Kaito Kidd.

Then she rushed over to the Maggison's house without thinking, whether he came back or not.

As for Barbara's younger brother James, he naturally ate in the middle school cafeteria.

All of this is due to Gordon's frugal life. Although he is the chief of the Gotham Police Headquarters, he still lives in a small house in the old city. pocket money.

"Zi-"

Heat the oil in a pan, crack two eggs with one hand to occupy half of the pan, then put three strips of bacon on the other half of the pan, and fry them over medium heat.

Toast two slices of toast while frying eggs and bacon, then chop up a bit of lettuce and apples for an easy salad.

The combination of meat and vegetables is particularly important.

Pour another glass of milk at the end.

In this way, a breakfast called lunch is ready.

"I'm afraid you will be too hungry, this is the fastest way."

Maggison thoughtfully said that it took no more than 5 minutes from walking into the kitchen to serving the dishes on the table.

Barbara, who was extremely hungry, smelled the aroma of bacon and eggs, combined with the aroma of wheat toast, and suddenly moved her index finger.

"Sure enough, you still know how to cook. The bacon is fried until it is burnt, and the fat is evenly distributed, smooth but not greasy. This is really the best fried bacon I have ever eaten."

After wolfing down the food, Barbara said with a satisfied face.

Maggison was amused, "What nonsense are you talking about, those who don't know think you are a gourmet."

"Hmph, I'm not happy to praise you!"

Barbara snorted.

"I'm actually not here just to tell you the news about Kaitou Kidd."

After a while, Barbara suddenly looked at Maggison, her big eyes were extremely bright.

Maggison's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately became vigilant.

"When Her Majesty the Queen was coming, I wanted to visit her. It just so happens that we have no classes these days. Since you are at home today, it proves that the magic study is over...so, you accompany me to visit the Queen. Your Majesty!"

Barbara stared at Maggison, her eyes piercing, as if you could say no and try.

"Just right, I also want to help Dad catch Kaito Kidd."

"This... well, I'll go with you, I really can't stand you."

Maggison was about to bite the bullet and refuse, but then he thought that maybe this time was an excellent opportunity to dispel Barbara's doubts, so he changed his words.
