Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

"Pretending? Why do you think so?"

The hand of 'Dean' stretching towards the glass cover paused in mid-air, and he turned his head to look at Robin, showing a playful smile.

He squeezed his face hard, without tearing off anything that looked like a disguise mask, and asked.

"Can't this face be my real face? I am Dean Suston, and Dean Suston is Kaitou Kidd."

'Dean' raised his hands, and said with a look of giving up resistance completely: "How? Seeing that my best friend is Kaitou Kidd, how does it feel? Do you want to let me go because of the old feelings?"

"Forget it, Kaito Kidd! If I had done it differently, I might still have fallen into your trap, but now I have seen through all your actions."

Robin stared at 'Dean' and sneered confidently.

"Phantom Thief Kidd, since you know my real identity, you must have conducted a detailed investigation on me, and you will naturally learn about my network of relationships. Among them, pretending to be Dean is the best choice."

"It's a pity that you got one thing wrong from beginning to end, that is, Dean can never be Kaitou Kidd!"

"oh?"

A surprised expression appeared on 'Dean''s face at the right time.

"During the incident at the Natural History Museum, Batgirl and I have already confirmed Dean's identity. When you appeared in the museum, he was still in his home. Unless Dean will be separated, you are absolutely not Dean!"

Hearing this, 'Dean' immediately nodded knowingly, and said: "So, you have suspected that Dean Suston is me before, and it seems that you have secretly monitored him? Tsk tsk tsk..."

'Dean' said in amazement: "You even monitor your best friend. This is the style of your superheroes? Anyway, I can't do this kind of thing."

Robin's face froze, and then he snorted coldly: "Say these words will not shake my determination to catch you!"

"Well, even if you can be sure that Dean is not Kaitou Kidd, how can you explain my face?"

'Dean' poked his cheek, spread his hands and said: "I have accepted the identity verification of GCPD twice, and both of them passed normally. Do I have the same appearance as Dean Suston? World Is there such a coincidence in the world?"

"When Harvey Bullock failed to tear off your disguise mask when he checked your identity, it really made me fall into confusion. For a moment, I even had the idea of ​​whether Dean was really Kaitou Kidd. "

Robin folded his arms and stared at 'Dean' in front of him.

"However, when I think of the way you used feathers to confuse our sight in the first place, I figured out how to avoid the inspection of the disguise mask."

Robin took out a gray feather from nowhere and slowly lifted it up.

"This feather itself is not gray, but dyed with paint. Why did you dye it gray?"

He pointed to the ceiling.

"Because the color of the ceiling happens to be gray, I guess you must have disguised yourself as an employee in the exhibition hall in advance, and glued a large number of feathers to the ceiling by using the opportunity of work, as long as you use special glue that will quickly weaken the viscosity They fall off automatically after a period of time, creating the illusion of countless flying feathers appearing out of thin air in the exhibition hall."

"The reason why you only announced the date today but not the specific time is because the time when the viscosity weakened is not precise enough. It can only be roughly inferred and cannot be determined, just like there are still some feathers stuck to the ceiling."

'Dean' looked up, and sure enough, there were scattered feathers stuck to the ceiling.

"I didn't expect you to discover all of this. You are indeed Robin."

'Dean' smiled faintly.

"But what do feathers have to do with faces?"

"Who said feathers?" Robin twitched his lips and said, "I said glue."

"Dean"'s face changed slightly, and he said indifferently, "It's thanks to you that you figured it out."

"Unless you and Dean are twins, it's hard for me to imagine that the two of you will look so much alike, especially if you are both proficient in magic, either it is a very low probability of one in ten million, or it is artificially created False deception!"

Robin's eyes were firm, and he spoke loudly.

"It's actually very simple to make the disguise mask impossible to tear off, and anyone can easily do it. Although this method is so crude that people don't believe that anyone will really do it, but in Dean's words- —”

"The so-called magician is to do things that everyone can think of but just can't think of. It doesn't matter whether it is simple or hypocritical, as long as it can achieve the ultimate goal, it is worth doing."

Having said that, Robin looked at 'Dean' across from him with admiration.

"Phantom Thief Kidd, you used superglue to stick Dean's disguise mask to your face, aren't you afraid that the skin will peel off when you tear it off?"

"You have kept your current face since just now. In fact, it's not that you don't want to tear off the disguise, but that you can't tear it off at all."

Clap clap clap clap!

"It's a wonderful reasoning. All the logic is already so harmonious. If I say it's not the case now, I'm afraid it will seem a little ignorant."

'Dean' applauded again and again, his hands suddenly crossed and grabbed the clothes on his shoulders, and he pulled forward instantly.

There was a ripping sound, and the original clothes were torn off immediately.

In its place was a gorgeous white suit.

Kaito Kidd, reveal your true body!

It is the same as the previous image, with a white tone, a straight figure, an elegant posture, cynical eyes, and a monocle that always reflects a strange light.

"I can't bear it any longer. If this goes on, sooner or later I won't be able to hold back my laughter. Fortunately, my poker face is well practiced."

Dean, who put on the Phantom Thief uniform, thought to himself.

"I didn't expect Robin to think that I glued the disguise mask on my face, and I thought he would think about 'Phantom Thief Kidd can transform superpowers'... In short, this misunderstanding becomes more and more serious. Get bigger!"

Although the face of Kaito Kidd cannot be seen clearly under the backlight of the monocle, Robin, who has confronted Kidd many times, still finds a little bit of difference.

The strange thief Kidd in front of him seemed to have a slightly larger face than before, which did not exceed Robin's expectations.

After all, in his opinion, Kaitou Kidd is wearing an extra layer of mask on his face at this time, which is really normal.

"Sure enough, as I expected, Kaito Kidd has only used the identity of Dean as a disguise from the beginning to the end, which is very different from his previous changeable style. Except for some reason, he cannot change his identity many times. There is no other reason!"

Robin stared, thinking to himself.
