Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics

When he heard the name Phantom Thief Black Crow, Dean felt like this and that...

All in all, there was a crazy murderer who massacred the mayor's mansion in Gotham. He claimed to be a "phantom thief" and even declared a challenge to himself. The Black Crow in his name was the exact opposite of Dean in a certain way.

Cassandra looked at the news that the mayor's residence was littered with corpses caused by the strange thief Black Crow, with an obviously uncomfortable look in her eyes.

And this was all seen by Dean.

She may not be so enthusiastic now as to take the initiative to help those poor victims, but she always hates killing from the bottom of her heart.

"Get ready."

At this time, Dean's voice penetrated Cassandra's ears.

The latter turned to look at Dean strangely.

"Kashan, your first theft is coming."

Dean smiled slightly, and a dangerous arc flashed vaguely in his eyes.

"This Phantom Thief Black Crow has come up with such a big thing to declare war on me. This is much more high-profile than Bruce Wayne's challenge. If I don't accept the challenge, how can I hold large-scale performances with peace of mind in the future?"

——

Gotham, late at night.

In a dirty sewer buried deep underground, dark, damp, and full of stench, someone hurriedly ran past.

The hurried footsteps splashed up the sewage that had been accumulated in the drainage ditch for an unknown period of time, making a splashing sound.

Behind the hurriedly fleeing person, a dark figure that looked like a demon flashed past and disappeared into the darkness.

There was no light source in the sewer, and the only light came from the cell phone of the man who was hiding from something terrible.

The faint light reflected the man's face. It was an extremely ugly face, so hideous that it could be called terrifying. It was a weird face that couldn't even be described with distorted facial features.

It was as if God, while giving him life, also put a mosaic on his face.

And the person with such a terrifying face was so afraid of certain existences that he did not hesitate to escape into this sewer filled with stench and rotten atmosphere, hoping to escape from the pursuit.

Even though he knew very well, escaping from that man was almost impossible.

In Gotham, this strange-looking man is not only widely known, but he is also quite famous. He rules a medium-sized gang under his command and is called Mr. Mosaic because of his appearance.

Mr. Mosaic is one of the earliest strategic partners of the Penguin, the underground king of Gotham. Who is it that can make him run away in such a panic?

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a sound of wind sounded from not far in front of Mr. Mosaic.

Before he could react, a violent impact like a hammer hit his face, and his body fell uncontrollably into the sewage.

Immediately afterwards, a tall and strong black figure appeared in front of Mr. Mosaic and grabbed the latter as if lifting a chicken. A gloomy and hoarse voice, as if from hell, entered his ears.

"Where's Francine Langstone, Mosaic?"

Batman asked with anger hidden in his tone.

Ever since he learned from O'Kilver at the Iceberg Club a few days ago that the person who threatened Kurt Langstone and obtained the Man-Bat Serum formula from him was one of Mr. Mosaic's men, Batman has been treating him In pursuit.

It's a pity that even though Mr. Mosaic tried his best, he couldn't escape from Batman. He only hid for a few days before his whereabouts were exposed, and he almost caught up with his entire gang.

Now Mr. Mosaic was lifted up by Batman with one hand. Knowing that resistance was pointless, he did not choose to resist stubbornly, and directly confessed weakly.

"That woman should still be in the underground garage at 153 Kelvin Avenue, 27th Street, Odsburg... But!"

Just after giving the address, Mr. Mosaic suddenly changed the topic and his tone became much more urgent.

"I didn't ask anyone to kidnap Francine Langstone! Batman, I was just entrusted to imprison her!"

When Batman heard this, his eyes not only showed no trace of surprise, but even hinted that this was indeed the case.

"Who entrusted you?"

"It's the Emperor Penguin! The guy who calls himself Gotham's new penguin!"

Mr. Mosaic was categorical.

Batman gave him a faint look and said nothing. Instead, he took out the photo taken by the Arkham Asylum monitor and asked.

"Where can I find this person?"

Mr. Mosaic took a look at the photo, and at first glance he recognized the environment in the photo as Arkham Asylum. At the second glance, he realized that the person in the photo was actually his younger brother Tom, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Why did Tom go to Arkham Asylum? Why would Batman suddenly ask about this obscure gang member?

As an old villain, Mosaic is well versed in the unspoken rules of communication with Batman. Even if he was surprised, he did not run to ask questions ignorantly, but answered directly.

"His name is Tom, and he is my subordinate. I arranged for him to go to the Iceberg Club to work as an undercover bartender. However, because he was seriously injured on the day when the Man-Bat Virus was leaked, he has been recuperating. You should be able to find him at his address. he……"

After a while, Batman dragged the unconscious Mr. Mosaic out of the gutter, tied him up and hung him behind a street lamp. Batman rushed to his next destination without stopping.

The underground garage where Francine is imprisoned.

On the way, Batman acted and fell into thinking.

The person who kidnapped Francine Langstone was O'Kilvey. Batman had felt something was wrong since he first saw him presenting himself as an Emperor Penguin, but now he is 100% sure.

Tom is probably O'Kilwe's knife hidden in the shadows, and Mr. Mosaic is a smoke bomb to divert his attention.

Even if Batman knew that there was something wrong with Okiervi, in order to rescue Francine, who had been imprisoned for more than a month, he could only go to Mr. Mosaic and Tom first.

The process of rescuing Francine went very smoothly. The only people responsible for guarding her were three or four gangsters with pistols. Batman took them down effortlessly.

However, just as Batman rushed Francine to the hospital and prepared to find Ogilvy and Tom, Alfred suddenly sent an emergency notification.

"Something's wrong, Batman!"

"Three hours ago, a man who called himself the Phantom Thief Black Crow attacked the mayor's mansion..."

The mayor of Gotham was attacked and hung from the clock tower, and everyone in the mayor's mansion died!

Even in Gotham, this was a vicious event with huge consequences.

Batman's face suddenly darkened. At this moment, the Phantom Thief Black Crow suddenly appeared out of nowhere, attacked the mayor's mansion, and declared war on the Phantom Thief Kidd, causing uproar in the city.

And it was another matter that he had to deal with urgently. If there was no calculation in it, it was just a coincidence, and everything happened to come together, Batman would definitely not believe it.

Alfred couldn't see the change in Batman's expression and continued to describe the development of the situation.

"Less than half an hour after Phantom Thief Black Crow issued the challenge, Phantom Thief Kidd responded. He used a fax machine to send a notice letter to the GCPD and all media organizations in Gotham..."

"When the meeting 116 days apart is about to come,

Mercury turned the sixtieth dial,

I will reveal miracles that transcend time and space,

Pick off the pupils of the sky.

Yours sincerely, Kaitou Kidd"

I haven't updated in the past few days. On the one hand, I plan to practice for a few more days. On the other hand, the hiatus has been a bit long. I need some time to regain my state and inspiration. I read the previous article several times by myself, and then I felt What the hell is this thing I wrote? I can’t bear to look at it.
