Phantom Thief Kidd in the Comic World

Chapter 16 Barbara Wants to Catch Kaito Kidd

"How long will it take?"

In the collection hall, Gordon asked Aaron beside him.

"About two hours, if the anonymous message is cracked correctly."

Gordon pondered for a moment, then asked, "How are the arrangements on the shore?"

"Don't worry, sir. The nearby coast has been built with a defense line, and there are no gaps. I guarantee that even a mosquito that wants to fly in will not escape our eyes."

"Do you think... Kidd will really fly over from the direction of the ocean in a roundabout way?"

Gordon's eyes seemed to be mysteriously bright, "You don't have a real experience of Kidd's disguise. That day he dressed up as you in front of all of us, and no one could tell. What's the difference between him and you?"

"Even his voice and the tone of his speech are imitated just like the real thing. If it weren't for his unique voice when he showed himself as a thief, I would have thought you were the thief Kidd."

"This... Sir, doesn't he have a hang glider? It should be the most convenient to fly, right? Could it be that he came here by diving? The sea is almost full of our people. If he drove a boat, it would be impossible for him to come here."

Aaron laughed dryly. He was knocked unconscious by Maggieson, so he didn't see the magical disguise technology. He could only hear all kinds of mysterious statements from his colleagues.

To be fair, Aaron was unwilling to believe this kind of thing. The technology of imitating human skin masks is not uncommon. Many spies or agents will use it, but unless it is the most technologically advanced one, the traces of imitation are too heavy, and it is impossible to make it look real.

How could a thief have such cutting-edge technology, and it is unlikely that someone who can come up with such technology would be a thief.

"Aaron, is there a place like a ventilation duct or sewer pipe in this collection?"

Gordon suddenly asked.

"Yes! There are a total of thirteen ventilation ducts and five vents in the collection, distributed in...these places, and there is no sewer pipe."

A voice sounded, but it was not the voice of anyone present, and more importantly, it was a woman's voice.

Aaron turned his head and looked at the place where the voice came from, and saw a red-haired female student wearing glasses coming over. Her left forearm was dragging a laptop, and her right hand was operating quickly on the keyboard.

"Barbara? Jim, is it really appropriate for your daughter to come here? It may be dangerous here in a while!"

As soon as he saw the girl, Aaron frowned and stopped calling her commander, because he was now speaking as Gordon's long-time comrade-in-arms.

"Rookie!"

Ignoring Aaron's question, Gordon shouted outside the collection, and Blake heard the shout and ran over immediately.

"Sir, what are your instructions?"

"Send two more teams of police officers here to strictly guard the five ventilation holes in the museum. We cannot rule out the possibility that Kaito Kidd sneaked into the collection hall from there."

Blake saluted and then went down to arrange the staff.

"Barbara, didn't I tell you not to follow me?"

At this time, Gordon glared at Barbara with dissatisfaction.

"I want to catch Kaito Kidd!"

Barbara snorted, walked around Gordon and Aaron, and walked into the collection hall.

"This kid!"

Gordon had a headache. He didn't know who Barbara learned from. She was very interested in various cases. The reason why she worked hard to study hacking technology was largely to hack into the police database, look through various case files, or collect intelligence.

Maggieson knew very well why Barbara did this, and Barbara told him personally.

Eight years ago, Barbara was just a little girl who had just entered junior high school, and she was almost killed by Two-Face. This experience is not worth recalling, but Barbara is an extraordinary girl. After that incident, she understood one thing, that is, the superficial beauty of Gotham is hypocritical.

Barbara is one of the very few people who have seen Harvey Dent's true face. Even such a righteous person would go on the wrong path. How could those gangster families that have been entrenched in Gotham for hundreds of years be wiped out so easily?

Unfortunately, most people are deceived by the status quo. Even her father Gordon has to go against his heart and do his best to maintain a "peaceful society" built on lies.

Many times, she even looked down on her father. She didn't understand why Gordon didn't tell the truth, why he didn't tell people who was the real murderer back then, and who defeated the Joker and saved Gotham.

Barbara admires Batman, and she takes him as her goal and wants to fight crime, but women are naturally weaker than men in fighting, so Barbara chose another way, that is wisdom.

She never told anyone about her plans, including Gordon and her brother, with the exception of Maggieson.

As for why, even Barbara herself was surprised. She always thought that Maggieson was different from others for no reason. He was the only one of her peers who was willing to listen to her description of how great Batman was. The others basically thought that Batman was just a wanted criminal under various influences.

However, whenever Barbara said that she also wanted to be Batman, Maggieson always laughed strangely, and then said inexplicably, "If you want to be Batman, you must first have his superpowers."

And when Barbara wondered what superpowers Batman had, Maggieson just smiled mysteriously and said nothing.

In short, when the thief Kidd appeared, he actually won the admiration of many people. Barbara was determined to catch this thief, and this was exactly the debut battle she set for herself.

At this time, she was not ready to follow the thief for a lifetime, and when she realized it, it was too late...

In short, Barbara came to Daggett's private collection with full fighting spirit, and she wanted to prove her ability here!

"Jim, remember to protect Barbara. You don't want that incident to happen again, right?"

Aaron looked at Barbara's back as she walked into the museum and said in a deep voice.

"Looking at the behavior of Kaito Kidd last time, he doesn't look like a vicious criminal who would actively hurt people."

"Jim, we can't trust the character of a criminal. Maybe last time it was because we knew too little about him that he could easily fool us and didn't hurt anyone, but this time it's different. If he is forced into a desperate situation, it's hard to imagine what Kidd will do."

"You're right. I will take good care of my daughter. Unless I die, I won't allow anyone to hurt her."

Gordon said with a firm look.

"The layout of the collection seems a bit too simple, and the internal structure is almost like a library?"

At the same time, Maggieson has also disguised himself and sneaked into the collection. As for who he pretended to be this time, it doesn't matter. The important thing is that he can now openly explore the police's layout.

However, the situation inside the collection hall was somewhat unexpected for McGinson. Daggett, the owner of the gem, did not come here at all, and did not even send a secretary or an assistant, as if he did not take the thief seriously at all.

"It's really interesting. In this case, either he really trusts the GCPD completely, or the backup plan he left behind is inconvenient for him to be at the scene."
