Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics.

Chapter 204 Kaitou Kidd: What was stolen today was a virus! ([-]-in-[-])

After checking Batman's face several times, Kidd finally confirmed that the former was not joking.

Batman actually decided to help him lure away the thousands of Man-bats near Wayne Tower.

He didn't expect that Batman, who had mistrusted him not long ago and claimed that he would never let Kid the Kid out of sight, would now resolutely let him go and act alone.

Although according to Batman, Lucius Fox is guarding Wayne Tower, if Kidd really wants to have any bad intentions, Lucius is basically impossible to stop him.

There's no way Batman wouldn't take this into consideration.

But he took the initiative to propose this plan, which means that to some extent, Kaitou Kidd has gained some recognition from Batman.

At least he doesn't think Kaito Kidd will stab Gotham in the back at this juncture, making the situation even more serious.

This does not mean that Batman will be open to Kid the Kid in the future. On the contrary, he may adjust Kid's priority up a few notches.

Because pulling back a person who may go astray at any time is sometimes more valuable than beating someone who has already made a mistake.

Kaito Kidd is not a shy person, and he agrees with Batman's plan to use him as a bait to lure away the Man-bats. It can be said that it is a good thing that Batman is willing to cover him, otherwise it will be difficult to even approach Wayne Tower.

Even if they forcefully break into the roof of Wayne Tower in a Batplane, as long as they dare to get off the Batplane, they will be swarmed by an almost endless swarm of man-bats and then torn into pieces without any suspense.

Even though the Bat Fighter's weapon system is powerful, it cannot guarantee the safety of the two people in this situation.

The terrain here in Wayne Tower is too open, and the Bat fighter cannot block the narrow alley entrance like the East District did before, blocking most of the human bats out, and only a few have a chance to fly in.

What's more, for Batman, these man-bats are all victims of virus infection. Even if he dies, he can't kill them. In this way, it will be more difficult to deal with the siege of a huge number of man-bats. .

As for Kaitou Kidd... fighting with tens of thousands or even 10,000+ giant humanoid bats has never been within his scope of consideration.

If the problem can be solved in one go, why make it so complicated?
"When will it be ejected?"

Kaitou Kidd asked bluntly.

"Now."

Batman said one word calmly.

"what?"

Immediately afterwards, Batman pressed a red button on the console without warning.

The next moment, a translucent glass cover suddenly appeared on the co-pilot's seat, covering Kaito Kidd inside, forming something like a small escape capsule, and then he was ejected from the channel opened on the top with a whoosh. go out.

"It's about 700 meters away from Wayne Tower. The escape capsule will land about 1000 to [-] meters away..."

Although the ejection was a bit sudden, Kaito Kidd reacted quickly, then quickly entered the state, and began to calculate from which position he could escape from the escape capsule to reach Wayne Tower faster.

At the same time, the group of human bats gathered around the Bat Fighter noticed something strange flying out of it, and they immediately swarmed up.

The glass cover of the escape cabin looks quite thick, but I don't know if it can withstand the fierce attack of so many man-bats.

Seeing that countless human bats were about to touch the outer shell of the escape capsule, at that critical moment, a strange sound wave that was completely unrecognizable to human ears suddenly came and swept the entire sky in an instant.

wryyyyyyyyyy!

"Roar!"

At this moment, countless human bats, like monkeys who heard the monk recite the curse, roared in the sky with a sound that sounded both painful and angry.

The human bats that were originally rushing in the direction of Kaito Kidd suddenly turned around and crashed into the bat fighter crazily.

Literally "bump" away.

Prior to this, regardless of the number of human bats attacking bat fighters, most of them still used fangs and claws as weapons to attack, or even punched and kicked them. In short, they would not easily launch an attack mode that was almost suicidal.

However, when the Bat-Fighter emitted ultrasonic waves of a specific frequency, almost every man-bat fell into madness and crashed into the Bat-Fighter desperately.

Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!
The violent impact sounded continuously, and Batman could hear it clearly even sitting in the cockpit.

As more and more human bats collided with each other, the fuselage of the Bat fighter began to shake faintly, and a slight vibration filled every corner of the cabin.

"It worked. Using ultrasonic waves can really attract the attention of bats!"

Seeing the reaction of the Man-bats, Kaitou Kidd and Batman thought to themselves in unison.

Without hesitation, Batman immediately turned the Batplane around and flew away from Wayne Tower as quickly as possible.

The current Bat Fighter is like a large moving human-bat taunting device. As it continuously radiates ultrasonic waves of a specific frequency, more and more human-bats are attracted to it.

The seemingly endless human bats that originally gathered around Wayne Tower have been basically eliminated and it has become a veritable safe place.

"A little closer, and we're almost there."

In the escape capsule that was descending along the parabola, Kidd looked at the Wayne Tower in front of him, constantly estimating the distance between the two.

800 meters...700 meters...600 meters...

500 meters!
Soon, the escape pod reached the optimal distance calculated by Kaitou Kidd!
If we continue forward, the escape capsule will fall below the level of the Wayne Tower roof.

With a bang, the glass cover on the ejection seat automatically fell off, and then a white figure jumped out of it. At the same time, it unfolded the triangular hang glider on its back, and then flew straight towards Wei Wei, which was less than 500 meters away. En Building.

At this moment, in Gotham City, the five thousand media workers who were hiding at home and had not yet been transformed into human bats, all the mobile phones, TVs or computers around them, all the electronic devices automatically lit up.

Then a screen was shown of Kaitou Kid flying through the air.

No one was shocked by this because they had already witnessed it once.

Virtual live broadcast room starts again!

"Is this...Wayne Tower?"

Viewers who watched the live broadcast easily recognized the most recognizable landmark building in the city.

But, why did Kaitou Kidd suddenly appear here? "Why did Phantom Thief Kidd run from Robinson Park to Wayne Tower? And where is Batman? Shouldn't he have arrested Phantom Thief Kidd? Could it be that Phantom Thief Kidd escaped smoothly just now?"

In their impression, the last place Kidd appeared was in Robinson Park, staying with Batman. Although the atmosphere between the two people was not as tense as they imagined, it was obviously far from harmonious.

Later, the Man-Bat suddenly appeared and attacked Kaitou Kidd, but Kaitou Kidd and Batman teamed up to deal with it. Later, it seemed that Kaitou Kidd took the antidote for the Man-Bat Serum and cured the Man-Bat.

And then... no more.

The live broadcast room was suddenly closed, and after waiting for a long time, there was no follow-up.

At that time, people thought that the live broadcast was shut down because Batman had taken action against Kid. It was even possible that Kid was subdued by Batman.

After all, in the eyes of Gothamites, with Batman's ability, it doesn't seem unbelievable to shut down Kidd's mysterious live broadcast.

People didn't know that Kidd and Batman went to the East District to investigate the origin of the virus.

At that time, Kaitou Kidd had no plans to start a live broadcast because some secrets were really not convenient for the public to know, especially when inside the Bat Fighter.

If Batman knew that Kidd had secretly started a live broadcast and exposed the inside of the Bat-fighter to everyone, then Batman would really have to fight him to the death.

He doesn't want to get entangled with someone like Batman, although there is a high probability that he has already been entangled.

But on the other hand, Kaitou Kidd feels that it would actually be quite exciting if that were the case...

"Wait a minute, look at the way Wayne Tower looks like, why does it feel like something's not quite right?"

Suddenly, some viewers who reacted quickly noticed something unusual in Wayne Tower.

"Isn't it that some kind of bat virus is circulating in Gotham right now? There are infected bat monsters everywhere in the city. Why aren't there any in Wayne Tower?"

"Logically speaking, the location of Wayne Tower should be very close to the infection area. Even in the more remote places here, there are many bat monsters. How is it possible that there aren't any bat monsters there?"

People who can work in the media industry in Gotham usually have good eyesight. It didn't take long for almost everyone to notice the weirdness of Wayne Tower.

"Could it be that Wayne Group has developed an antidote to cure the virus, so all the infected people in the surrounding area have recovered?"

"Or is it that the Wayne Group used some unknown weapon to kill all the bat monsters around them?"

"Could it be that this is not actually a live broadcast, but Kaitou Kidd released a previously shot video?"

Everyone was wondering what happened in Wayne Tower and kept guessing in their minds.

Fortunately, their doubts were answered immediately.

"Dear viewers, now, I have something to announce to you."

In their respective electronic devices, Kaitou Kidd, who was flying towards Wayne Tower, was facing the camera and slowly spoke.

Hearing this, every audience member was shocked. Kaito Kidd's words were undoubtedly meant for them!
"I believe everyone already knows that Gotham is currently facing an unprecedented crisis. A terrifying virus that can spread through the air is spreading throughout the city. Anyone infected with the virus will be transformed into a bloodthirsty monster."

Kaitou Kidd spoke very quickly, but his words were extremely clear, allowing everyone to hear them clearly.

"In order to deal with this crisis, Batman and I decided to temporarily cooperate. Not long ago we discovered the source of the spread of the virus."

"This virus crisis is a deliberate biochemical attack, not an accidental leak from a laboratory!"

"Currently, Batgirl and Robin have begun investigating the person behind the scenes, while Batman and I are preparing to solve the problem of the spread of the Man-Bat Virus in Gotham City."

Kaitou Kid spoke astonishingly, and the media workers watching the live broadcast felt like their heads were about to explode.

The amount of information he revealed inside and outside his words was too huge!
Why did Kaitou Kidd and Batman decide to temporarily cooperate?Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your brain?

One is a thief who is proficient in magic and famous for his miraculous tricks, and the other is a superhero, known as the world's best detective.

These two don't look like they can work together, do they?
Could it be that Batman and Kidd have actually been infected with the virus and are no longer conscious?
Forget it, let’s forget about this problem for now.

The point is that Kaitou Kidd claims that the Man-Bat Virus is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!

Everyone knows that the original sample of the human-bat serum was researched painstakingly by Kurt Langstone. Who else knows the formula of the serum besides him?

there is none left!Even his wife Francine doesn’t know!
Maybe Batman also knows, but it is absolutely impossible for the virus to be leaked from Batman, so there is no need to consider this.

And Kurt has been detained in Arkham Asylum for more than a month, and there is no chance to do such a thing. So who will be the person who leaked the Man-Bat Virus?
What is the purpose of this mastermind?What's the point of turning everyone in Gotham into Man-Bat?What good does it do to the person behind it?
Unimaginable, unimaginable at all.

All I can think of is that the mastermind behind this is definitely a terrifying character.

Fortunately, Kaitou Kidd's last words brought the only good news, and the virus crisis is expected to be resolved.

"Now, thousands of Man-bats near Wayne Tower have been lured away by Batman to give me a chance to get close to Wayne Tower."

At this time, Kaitou Kidd continued speaking, and at the same time he turned around and looked behind him, and the audience in the live broadcast room also saw the scene behind him.

I saw a huge black ball appearing in the sky in the distance. The surface of the ball was bumpy and not smooth at all.

And when people rub their eyes and look carefully, they will find that the so-called potholes are actually man-bats!

There were so many man-bats that it was impossible to peek inside, but everyone already knew the details through Kaitou Kid's statement.

There's Batman in there!
"Lead countless monsters to open the way, and find a way to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes. The detective has completed his mission... Then it is time for the thief to complete his mission."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kidd successfully landed on the top of Wayne Tower.

On the top of the tall building, a white figure stood on the edge of the rooftop. As the evening breeze blew, the cloak behind him floated gently.

The dark clouds on the horizon parted like a coincidence, revealing a full moon. The bright moonlight shone on Kaitou Kid's body, making it so white that it shone brightly.

Then, Kaitou Kidd began his final speech.

"Everyone, I hereby promise that I will steal the virus from every infected person in Gotham tonight!"
