Become a Phantom Thief from the Comic World

"Why are there mutant bats in Wayne Tower?"

Kaitou Kidd looked at Lucius and asked.

"I remember that everyone here should have evacuated. It is impossible for mutant bats to come in."

"Initially, I had the same idea as you, Kaitou Kidd."

Lucius answered.

"About half an hour ago, I received a notification from Batman. He asked me to wait for your arrival in Wayne Tower. At that time, we all thought that the building would be safe, but we were wrong."

At this point, Lucius sighed and continued: "It is true that all Wayne Group employees have evacuated, but this building is not empty!"

"A few hours ago, when the Masked Club besieged Wayne Tower, they sent a small team into the building to search for Bruce's whereabouts. However, it wasn't long before the Masked Club moved to Robinson Park."

Kaitou Kidd's expression changed.

"It seems that you have already thought of it. Yes, when the Mask Club left, they did not take all the members with them. There were still twenty or thirty people left in Wayne Tower."

"Tsk, Mask Club, these people are really haunted."

Kaito Kidd clicked his tongue and said in wonder.

"At that time, everyone was relieved that the Mask Club had retreated. No one had the heart to count their numbers, so we subconsciously thought that all of them had left."

As a result, when Lucius hurried back to Wayne Tower, he was unprepared and encountered a mutant bat attack.

Fortunately, he took the main entrance route and took the elevator directly to the floor with the monitoring room. He happened to encounter a mutant bat not far from the monitoring room, giving Kaitou Kid a chance to save his life.

Otherwise, if Lucius had been attacked anywhere other than the control room, he would probably be helpless by now.

At that time, even if Kaitou Kidd finds Lucius's location through the monitoring room, he will not be able to save him, because the gap between "recovery" and "resurrection" is like a chasm.

Especially in the system mall, the prices of resurrection props are frighteningly high. Not to mention that Kaitou Kidd doesn't have so many exclamation points. Even if he did, he couldn't really spend that much to revive Lucius.

After all, they are just two strangers who have nothing in common.

Because Lucius was too seriously injured, he lost consciousness after barely hiding in the control room and had no time to send a signal to Batman.

"In other words, there are at least twenty mutant human bats lurking in this building at this moment..."

Kaitou Kidd walked into the monitoring room and looked at the monitoring screen above.

"Nearly half of the surveillance images are dark, and only eight mutant bats can be seen in the surveillance footage."

Except for the two mutant human bats that were defeated by Kaitou Kidd at the beginning and the one that was electrocuted at the door of the control room, there are at least nine more mutant human bats whose locations are unknown.

"Mr. Fox, do you know where the drug amplification diffusion device is hidden in Wayne Tower?"

After writing down the known location of the mutant man-bat, Kaito Kidd turned to Lucius and asked.

"You are talking about the Chocolat device. It is hidden in the laboratory numbered A4869 on the th floor."

Lucius replied, and then he took out an ID card from his clothes and handed it to Kaitou Kidd.

"Only by using my card can I have the permission to enter there. My current physical condition cannot go with you, but I can contact you in the control room, and I will instruct you how to operate the Chocolat device. "

Kaitou Kidd nodded, put the ID card away, and then turned around and left.

Just after taking a few steps, Lucius's voice sounded again.

"Kaitou Kidd...thank you for saving my life. Robin is right. You are a good person at heart."

Kaitou Kidd paused and continued walking outside the control room without looking back.

Lucius watched Kaitou Kidd walk out the door, praying in his heart that the latter could arrive successfully. At this moment, the hopes of countless people in Gotham were in the hands of Kaitou Kidd.

He didn't just stay there stupidly. As the door closed, Lucius dragged his seriously injured body and limped to the monitoring desk to sit down. At the same time, he sent a message to Batman explaining what had just happened. everything of.

-

At the same time, countless media workers in Gotham City watching the live broadcast also silently prayed for Kaitou Kidd in their hearts and wished him smooth operations.

Some people are condemning the Mask Club and the Black Mask who formed the club.

"I really can't believe that there are so many bat monsters in the Wayne Tower that should be empty. The Masked Club really doesn't do anything about personnel. Black Mask is really a disgusting criminal. What happened in Gotham today He is to blame for all bad things!”

Some people also changed their view of Kaito Kidd because of his actions in saving Lucius's life.

"Originally, I thought that Kaitou Kidd was just a selfish and vain thief with no interest in him. Even if he said he wanted to steal the virus, I never believed it. But now I can confirm that I used to be interested in Kaitou Kidd." The misunderstanding is too big."

Others were surprised by Kaitou Kidd's method of dealing with mutant bats.

"Those infected with the virus can locate sound waves like bats. Through the reflection of ultrasonic waves, they can accurately obtain the position and shape of everything around them. This should have been their absolute advantage, but in the end, Kaitou Kidd used it to set up an ambush. Kaitou Kidd’s fighting intelligence is not weak at all.”

No matter how different people's concerns are, they all have the same wish at this time without exception.

That's why Kaitou Kidd is on his way to find the device. Don't let anything happen again. This incident really needs to end.

On the other side, Batman finally got a letter from Lucius, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. He did not mistakenly believe in Kaitou Kidd.

As long as he persists for a while, Kaitou Kidd can find the Chocolat device, and the man-bat virus crisis sweeping Gotham can be successfully resolved.

What we have to do next is to find out the mastermind behind this incident!

In Wayne Tower, following Lucius's guidance, Kidd took the elevator closest to the A4869 laboratory.

Now that he had temporarily borrowed Lucius's ID card, he had the highest authority inside Wayne Tower except Bruce Wayne himself.

Except for some top-secret locations that require iris or palm authentication, all other facilities are accessible to Kaitou Kidd.

The monitoring room is on the 88th floor, and it takes about ten seconds to get down to the 45th floor.

During this time, Kaito Kidd recalled the shortest route Lucius told him.

"When the elevator door opens, there is a T-shaped fork in front of you. Enter the corridor on the left and walk about 35 meters, turn right, and then enter the third fork. The seventh laboratory on the right is the destination..."

"This route is not shown on the surveillance screen. It is not sure if there are mutant bats blocking the way. This is also the most dangerous place."
