Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

Chapter 149 The showdown of the century! begin

After all the board members left, Bruce's eyes flashed with a subtle hint of weariness, but it was quickly replaced by a determined look.

He sat in a chair and waited for a while.

Soon, Lucius Fox pushed open the door of the conference room and walked in.

"I just noticed that the directors looked ugly when they left. Did you have a fight with them again?"

Lucius asked with a natural expression, as if he had seen the scene just now many times.

"No, this time the plan went much smoother than usual. I didn't have to spend much effort to convince them."

Bruce said calmly.

"A development plan for the hilly area northwest of Otisburg? I guess they will agree because they see the huge business opportunities hidden there."

As the chief CEO of Wayne Group and an ally of Batman, Lucius is very clear about the various projects Bruce wants to do.

"Heh, otherwise, how could those old vampires agree to this project so easily?"

Bruce smiled disdainfully and said, "They think they can make a profit from it, but I will never let them succeed."

"I think they might be doing something secretly. You can't keep an eye on it all the time. After all, you have too many things to do."

Lucius mentioned.

"So, I decided to hand over the entire development plan to you."

Bruce said of course.

"Ha, I knew it."

Lucius shook his head helplessly.

"I guess you haven't counted how much mess you've left me responsible for."

"This is because I believe that you can do any job with your abilities, Lucius."

Bruce smiled slightly.

"Just wait, I will take back all the shares in their hands sooner or later. By then we will be able to do many things freely."

"To be honest, if you had a friend go to their house every night to have a good chat with them, maybe your goal would have been achieved."

Hearing this, Bruce frowned, and said: "Batman is not a robber, Lucius, it is very easy to take away the equity by illegal means, but he won't do that, and he shouldn't do that."

"I know, but sometimes I think, if this continues, how long will you have to persist to achieve the desired goal?"

Lucius was not surprised by Bruce's reaction, and sighed slightly.

"I'll hold on until the day I can't hold on."

Bruce was decisive.

"Okay, enough gossip, we have a friend waiting for us to go on an appointment tonight."

Then, Bruce ended the topic.

"Lucius, are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare yesterday?"

"Of course, inspections are always welcome."

Lucius nodded.

"Then let's get going."

Ta Ta Ta Ta Ta Ta!

In the Cavaliers Stadium, several helicopters were circling back and forth in the sky, and the high-speed rotating propellers made a loud sound that echoed in the sky.

Three of them are police helicopters from the GCPD, and the rest are special planes from Gotham's major media companies.

Although Bruce has already set up an encirclement circle with a live camera in the center of the stadium lawn, which can broadcast the whole process of Kaitou Kidd's theft in an all-round way, theoretically, the media does not need to come and broadcast it.

But if such a big hot event is not reported in real time on the front line, can we still be called journalists?

Since the Wayne Group has taken care of the close live broadcast on the ground, they found another way to shoot the whole process from a bird's eye view.

Anyway, during the previous preview, the white mist in the sky seemed to be a key part of Kaitou Kidd's technique, and it was just in time to see what was going on from the air.

Among the several media helicopters, the most conspicuous one came from the largest Gotham Gazette.

Naturally, our old friend, Gotham's leading star reporter, Vicky Vale, is also included.

"Hello everyone, my name is Vicki Weir, and I am currently above Cavaliers Stadium."

In the cabin of the helicopter, Vicky held up the microphone and spoke to the camera.

"It can be seen that the Cavaliers Stadium is almost full at this time, showing the strong interest of people in Gotham in Bruce Wayne's challenge to Kidd."

"From this phenomenon, we can see that the existence of Kaito Kidd in Gotham seems to be more than just a criminal. He seems to have become a strange cultural symbol, and to some extent, he also shows a huge star power.”

"We have to admit that Kaitou Kidd is indeed an extremely charismatic super criminal. He is not as crazy as Two-Face, not as cunning as Penguin, not as paranoid as Riddler, not as vicious as Killer Croc, and Not as incomprehensible as the Joker, or even like any other criminal in the world.”

"Theft is like a medium for him to perform magic tricks, rather than a pure criminal act. I'm not exonerating Kid. He is a criminal, there is no doubt about it, but you have to Say, this thing is really cool!"

"He is wise, pays attention to etiquette, has a sense of humor and is also very gentlemanly. From his clothes to his temperament, he embodies romanticism at all times. Oh, not to mention he is still so handsome. I believe no one would dislike such a phantom thief. Kidd.”

"Given that in the preview three days ago, Kidd stole the Bat Lantern, a very special thing, some people think that this may be the trigger for the first conflict between Batman and Kidd."

"Now, there is only one and a half hours left before Phantom Thief Kidd's last preview. Let us wait and see whether this duel is another miracle performed by Phantom Thief Kidd, or is it the final success!"

As time progresses, it is getting closer and closer to the time when Kaitou Kidd will show up.

Everyone in the Cavaliers Stadium braced themselves for fear of missing any wonderful moment.

At that time, Bruce Wayne, Jim Gordon and others were standing outside the camera, staring at the Bat-Light inside.

There was also a circle of GCPD guards standing around, all well-equipped, and they were eyeing the Kaitou Kidd.

These dozen guards are the team that Gordon has led hand in hand over the years, and they are the most trustworthy group of people in the GCPD.

By bringing them here, Gordon strengthened his determination to arrest Kidd.

The venue this time can be said to be quite favorable to the GCPD. The previous operations of Kidd were in confined spaces and there were a large number of civilians present, making it inconvenient for Gordon to order a shooting.

But now all the civilians are in the audience, and there is no citizen on the lawn the size of a football field. There is no need to worry about accidental injuries.

However, Gordon still did not change his view on Kaitou Kidd. He was guilty but not worthy of death. If possible, he did not intend to kill Kidd.

Therefore, the guards are not equipped with live ammunition, but with tranquilizer ammunition.

"The time is almost up."

At this time, Bruce looked at his watch and said attentively.
