Chapter 58: The Spider and the Phantom
Kidd the Monster Thief pulls out his secret prop specially made for this operation, which is the hook gun made by Dr. Asasa. He aimed at the basement ceiling and fired the hook inside the barrel.
After the hook was hung to the ceiling, Kidd secured the other end into the ventilation duct. In this way, a rope bridge large enough to support his weight was successfully built, and as long as he climbed up this rope bridge, he did not have to worry about the alarm in the basement.
"Haha, Jewel, I'm here~" The smug Kidd climbed up with his hands and feet, and his mouth had already begun to hum a small tune proudly. But before he could finish humming the tune in his mouth, another hearty laugh came from the basement:
"Haha, Kidd the Thief! You have no escape! ”
It was none other than Detective White Horse, who had disappeared from the live broadcast since Kidd appeared! I saw a handsome detective standing in front of the basement door, still holding a gas mask in his hand.
"It's time for this show to come to an end, Kidd the Thief!" The white horse detective said, slapping his palm on the red button on the wall beside him. Suddenly, a large amount of white gas seeped in through the cracks around the basement, and soon filled the narrow basement.
"In another 17 seconds 38 seconds, hypnotic gas will fill the entire basement, give up Kidd, you have no escape!" After successfully letting the thief Kidd fall into the trap he had set, Hakuba Detective laughed triumphantly. Of course, he did not forget to put on a gas mask for himself.
"Damn it!" Kidd, the thief, cursed secretly, he still hadn't been fully prepared for the gas mask he had with him. If this continues, he will inevitably fall under hypnotic gas, and now that the White Horse Detective has put on a gas mask, it will be difficult to remove it from his face.
He had nothing to do.
Just when Kidd the Strange Thief was helpless, a strange wind suddenly blew in the cramped basement. The wind spread from the center of the basement to the surroundings, swept away the hypnotic gas, and then slipped out through the ventilation ducts. After 17 seconds and 38 seconds, the hypnotic gas not only did not fill the entire basement, but it was much thinner because of the gust of wind.
"This ...... This...... What's going on!? Even the White Horse Detective was shocked by the strange phenomenon in front of him, "There is not even a window in this basement, where is this wind blowing!?" ”
"Kidd, is this also your trick?!"
It's my trick...... Lai Qixiao, who was hiding in the ventilation pipe, silently withdrew his wrist to cast the spell, and continued to observe and listen to the duel between the detective and the strange thief outside.
When Black Feather Kuaito was in an embarrassment, it was he who had been hiding in the shadows to help. Near the rift, he tried his new powers, attaching the power of the bicorns to his wrist and unleashing a small wind spell in the middle of the basement.
Come on, Kidd. I'm here to see you being handsome, not to see you deflated. Lai Qixiao carefully hid himself, not planning to intervene in the duel between the two.
"Hehe, it looks like you're still falling short after all, detective!" Kidd, who had escaped, immediately began to taunt the White Horse Detective, even though he had no idea how he had managed to get out.
"Goodbye, detective!" Kidd, the thief who had climbed to the top of the ceiling, lifted the floor tiles on his head and jumped to the ground, "I'll take the gem!" ”
"Don't try to run, Kidd!" Annoyed, Detective White dropped his gas mask and turned and ran out of the basement.
After both of them disappeared into the basement, Lai Qixiao crawled out of the ventilation duct and stretched his stiff hands and feet in the basement.
"I'm really not used to such a cramped space...... After a little more delay, the police should come, and then go and enjoy the performance of the esteemed Kidd seniors. ”
…………
"Goodbye, Officer Nakamori!" Kidd, the thief who floated upwards with a balloon hanging from his back, said goodbye to Officer Nakamori next to the bronze statue, "The gem on the bronze statue is not the one I wanted, in that case, I will give you this victory." Bye! ”
In fact, he also wanted to take the gem with him, but the bronze statue had been made by the white horse and firmly fixed to the base. As a last resort, Kidd the Strange Thief had no choice but to give up.
"Don't think it's that simple and leave!" Despite saving the gem, Ginzo Nakamori was not happy at all. For him, only catching Kidd the Monster Thief can represent his own victory.
"He went to the top floor! Officer Nakamori, notify the officers on the top floor! As he spoke, the White Horse Detective had already run to the roof of the building alone. And Nakamori Ginzo didn't even have a chance to stop him, so he could only let him continue to act without permission.
"Really, this troublesome detective! If he weren't the son of the White Horse Police Director, I wouldn't have cared about him! After a few complaints, Nakamori Ginzo began to take out the walkie-talkie, ready to notify the police officers stationed on the roof.
"Hey, this is Nakamori, please reply when you hear it, please reply when you hear it...... Strange, is there a communication problem? Why didn't anyone answer? ”
Of course, no one answered, because now the police officers stationed on the roof of the building, without exception, were intoxicated with sweet dreams and collapsed on the ground.
Kidd the Strange Thief paced slowly on the rooftop, his poker gun in his hand, looking around warily. The police officer who fell asleep in front of him touched the alarm in his heart, what strange thing happened on the roof of the building?
"Hehehehe......" A low laugh suddenly came from behind Kidd, and he turned back suddenly, only to see a blonde man dressed in black standing on the edge of the roof, and he didn't know when he appeared here.
The man wore his hands behind his back and a pair of three-eyed goggles on his head, covering most of his face, making it impossible to see his true face.
Apparently, the sleeping police officer had nothing to do with the man.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Kidd the Thief."
“…… Who are you? Did you put these cops to sleep? ”
Kidd cautiously kept his distance from the mysterious man as he secretly put his finger on the trigger of the poker gun.
"My name is 'Spider', and I'm the one who came to lead you into your nightmare."
"All, let me see what your nightmare looks like!"
Kidd was about to shoot, but he saw the man's goggles burst out with a dazzling light, and in the next second, he was suddenly transferred from the roof to a vast spider web!
"What the hell is going on? Hallucinations? Kidd, bound hand and foot, struggled as best he could, but could not get out of his web. And the man who called himself a spider slowly crawled towards him like a real spider.
Just then, a gunshot suddenly pierced the night sky, waking Kidd from his hallucination. He opened his eyes in horror, only to see another mysterious person dressed in black and wearing a mask on the roof of the building.
"Cut, missed." The man in black lowered his index finger aimed at the spider and said with some disappointment.
