Hall B1 of the Gotham Museum, half an hour before the opening time.

Two guards in black suits and armed with guns stood upright by the door, watching the busy people passing by carrying all kinds of equipment.

One of the guards yawned, wiped away the physiological tears from the corners of his eyes, and simply changed his position holding the gun and leaning on the wall by the door with his legs crossed.

"Aren't you afraid that your wages will be deducted if you are so casual?" Another guard asked.

Si Xing glanced at another guard with drooping eyelids, and lazily said: "They don't have time to watch over us now, and they won't be open until half an hour later. We're just standing here because they want to detain us some more time. After all, our The contract only begins when the exhibition is opened."

"This is the capitalists. They want to suck every drop of our blood, and I don't want them to suck it for nothing." Si Xing waved his hands and said seriously.

The other guard felt that what Si Xing said made sense, so he imitated Si Xing and relaxed his standing posture.

"I heard that Catwoman and The Origami Phantom Thief will visit here today." Si Xing said casually.

"Well, Catwoman will patronize every exhibition with the collection of 'cat' characters. If it weren't for Catwoman to come to patronize, they would invite us?" The guard looked like he'd known it a long time ago.

He was referring to poor people like us who have nothing but physical strength.

The guard looked at Cheese and asked without malice: "You look so thin, how could they choose you?"

"I'm good at marksmanship." Si Xing said without opening his eyes, playing with the gun in his hand.

"Oh." The guard was also not curious about why the other party was so good at marksmanship. Less curiosity in Gotham is also a good way to survive.

after awhile.

Si Xing opened one eye and scanned the guards, half a minute later he said softly: "Why haven't I seen you?"

The guard was taken aback for a moment, and he turned his head to look at Si Xing who was leaning against the wall. Si Xing's amber eyes were full of suspicion and vigilance, and he even clenched his gun tightly.

"Hey, what are you doing?" The guard was a little flustered, and anyone who was suspected would feel uneasy. "I haven't seen you either."

"What's your name?" Si Xing asked.

"Hans." The guard answered immediately.Then he asked Si Xing: "What about you? What's your name?"

"What a coincidence, my name is also Hans." Si Xing stood up straight, his eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly: "I never thought that I saw two Hans on the list before I said it, so it was you. "

Hans didn't really remember much, he thought about it carefully in his mind, as if there was such a thing, he scratched his head and said, "Yes, it's me."

"Ah, that explains the problem." Si Xing nodded, not saying what the problem was. His logic was actually in chaos, but what he needed was the chaos to confuse the guard.

Because of being suspected, even if he hadn't done it, he would have a subconscious guilty conscience, so when he was just lifted from suspicion, he would not take the initiative to ask questions, because he was afraid of being found 'doubtful' again.

Si Xing leaned against the wall, yawned and shook his body, hunched over slightly and planned to leave.

"Where are you going? Uh... Hans." Hans asked, he was embarrassed to call his name to someone else—a thin-looking guy, which was too uncomfortable.

"Pee some water." Si Xing took two steps forward, then turned his head back, with distrust towards Hans in his eyes. "Want to come with me?"

Hans knew that the 'Hans' in front of him still didn't trust him, so in order to win his trust, he had no choice but to follow.

"Let's go, I really want to pee too." Hans lowered his head and adjusted his expression, then raised his head again and smiled brightly.After finishing speaking, Hans stretched out his hand to hook Si Xing's shoulder.

Si Xing frowned indistinctly, he didn't say anything, his expression was calm, as if he didn't care about the other party's sudden contact.

There are still 10 minutes before the opening, and the invited guests have not yet entered the arena, and there are only two of them in the toilet belonging to the infield.

Coming out of the toilet cubicle, Si Xing squeezed out the hand sanitizer, rubbed his slender fingers carelessly to clean every inch of his hands, and quietly counted the time.

Almost now.

"Oh! shit!" Hans yelled from the cubicle, both frightened and angry.

Si Xing still maintained the posture of washing his hands, with a lazy expression, and even yawned, but his voice was still full of energy, as if he really cared about Hans.

He asked loudly: "What's the matter? Brother?"

"It's nothing, the faucet here is broken." Hans looked annoyed at the water pump that kept spraying water, and the water splashed his trousers from the water pump.

Hans took a step forward to pull the doorknob, and then he found that the doorknob was also broken, and something was stuck in the doorknob, preventing him from opening the door.

Hans couldn't help but uttered a swear word, and said to Si Xing outside the door: "God, this door handle is broken and I can't open it inside, I'm trapped inside."

Si Xing swayed slowly to the door and said, "I'll try to see if I can open it from the outside." After speaking, Si Xing leaned against the door with a little force and made a loud bang.

Si Xing said: "Oh, sorry. It can't be opened."

"It will start in more than ten minutes." Si Xing added lightly.

Hans panicked at this moment, he twitched the doorknob vigorously and tried to twist the door open, and he even started banging on the door repeatedly.

If he can't arrive in time, not only will he be cancelled, all wages for the day will be cancelled, but according to the contract, he will be fined twice the liquidated damages, which is 5000 U.S. dollars, if he is not at the workplace when he should be working.

His salary today is also short of 800 US dollars. It is impossible for a poor man like him to make up the 5000 US dollars if he mortgages everything he can.

"You have to help me." Hans could only turn to his companion, the only person around him who knew he was trapped.

Having achieved his goal, Si Xing smiled slightly, and said in a flat tone: "I will help you. You give me the employee card."

Hans immediately handed out the employee card through the crack of the door below, but at the moment he handed it out, a question arose in his mind, why does he need his own employee card?

Before Hans could withdraw his hand, Si Xing forcefully pulled the card away from his hand.Si Xing carefully memorized the face belonging to Hans on the card.

"Hey, brother. You really want to help me, right...?" Hans' tone was a little cautious.

He is not sure now, no, not only is he not sure, but the things he can prove his identity are also in the hands of another 'Hans'.

He could only hope that the other 'Hans' would tell him that he hadn't lied to him and was really helping him.

"Of course, Catwoman and the Origami Phantom Thief may sneak into this exhibition. If you don't take the employee card to find help, they may not trust us." Si Xing said casually.

"Wait for a while, I'll be back as soon as possible." Si Xing was already walking towards the door when he said this, with a blank expression on his face, he stretched out a hand, his fingers spread out to cover his face.

When he put down his hand again, the face became somewhat similar to Hans's face, except for the amber eyes still shining.

...

...

"Team A guards the front door, and Team B guards the back door. After guests enter the arena, no more flies are allowed to fly in. Do you understand?" the bald man in a black suit and black sunglasses instructed.

"Yes, sir." The men also in suits replied in unison.

"It's not good, it's not good." When the young employee saw them, his eyes lit up as if he had found a savior, and his voice was panting, which showed that he had been running for a long time.

The bald man frowned slightly, which unit is this from?Noticing that the other party was wearing a work suit of an ordinary employee, a trace of disgust flashed in the man's eyes, which was completely blocked by the black sunglasses.

This is the poor poor of Gotham.

"What's the matter?" the man asked bluntly.

Si Xing almost fell when he ran in front of the bald man, he stabilized his body and gasped for a while, then wiped the sweat off his head and said.

"The restroom in Area A...in the restroom is the Origami Phantom Thief!" The young employee's tone was a bit apprehensive, obviously still terrified by what happened in the restroom just now.

"What are you talking about? Tell me clearly." The man frowned. How could the Origami Phantom Thief be seen by this man?Is the Origami Phantom Thief a fool?Appeared directly in the toilet and happened to be seen.

The young employee's cheeks immediately turned red, and he slightly opened his lips in embarrassment. He squeezed the hem of his suit, loosened it, and squeezed it again.

The man became a little impatient, he grabbed the young and thin employee by the shoulder and shook him and asked, "Tell me, if it really is the origami thief who let him go, do you know how serious it is!"

The young employee was obviously frightened by the man's actions. He closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "I saw the man next door wearing a short black cape and a red vest..."

As if afraid that they would not believe what he said, the young employee immediately added: "His cloak seems to be magical, and it floats."

Hearing the bald-headed men described by the staff, the subordinates couldn't help but sneer and cast a direct and ambiguous look at the staff.

It turns out that this little employee is a gay voyeur. It is really obscene and wretched to use a mirror to peek into the other cubicle to peek at others.

Under such sight, the young employee blushed even more, wishing he could hide himself.

The bald man glared at his subordinates. He didn't care what kind of person this employee was, he only cared about how much money the information provided by the other party could make him.

You must know that the "worth" of the Origami Phantom Thief on various wanted orders in the United States is quite high, and he has to thank the Origami Phantom Thief for not only patronizing Gotham.

If only crimes were committed in Gotham, the bounty for catching the origami thief would not be enough for them to share equally, but with some bounties outside, there would be a lot of money.

What the young employees were talking about was the characteristics of the Origami Phantom Thief. According to the characteristic map of the Origami Phantom Thief released by GCPD on the Internet, it is a black waist-length cloak, a bright red vest and white shirt, a black and red top hat and Black eye patch.

The whole costume looks like it will appear on the street and play vampires with children on Halloween.

If anything, all of Gotham's villains look like weird costume lovers who would haunt Halloween, including a certain bat freak.

But there is something different about the Origami Phantom Thief. Everyone is guessing whether the Origami Phantom Thief is a mutant or a wizard.

He can make his cloak float, he can fly, he can turn his body into paper.
