Gotham Police Department - The rooftop of the GCPD headquarters.

Director James Gordon stood next to a giant lighted searchlight, a round of striking bat signs reflected in the dark sky.

Across from him, a somewhat funny teenager was looking at a card full of words.

The boy wore a red short-sleeved shirt, green gloves and trousers, a yellow cape, and a black eye patch that covered the upper half of his face.

He calls himself Robin and is Batman's apprentice, assistant, and partner.

"Pour the last drop of water into the transparent bottle,

Newborn fish leap out of the dried bottle,

The trapped angel wept with sorrow,

When the flipped L appears on top of the tower,

The silver-white wings will descend according to the guidance of the moonlight,

Brush away the tears of angels.

Kidd the Strange Thief"

Robin finished reading the card and gave him a strange look.

"Director, are you sure this isn't some new kind of prank? Or did the Riddler escape from Arkham? ”

"No, it's not a prank, and the Riddler didn't escape."

Gordon said with a serious gaze.

"About a week ago, Kidd sent a notice letter to the art museum, and the museum staff thought it was someone's prank, so they didn't report it, but a few days later they found that a bracelet full of jewels had been stolen, and the same card was left at the scene."

"To this day, he sent a new teaser, along with the jewelry he stole last time, and this one is so obscure that we only guessed part of the meaning."

Robin asked in surprise, "You mean, he returned what he stole back?" Why did he do it? ”

"Maybe he's angry that no one he's paying attention to his announcement, maybe he doesn't want jewelry in the first place but has another purpose, who knows what he wants to do?"

Gordon shook his head.

"After so many years of working in Gotham, I don't really want to ask 'why' anymore."

"Okay, I'll take this card with me first, and I'll figure it out."

Robin put away the card for "Kidd the Strange Thief" and turned to leave the rooftop.

"You've been the only one all this time, where has Batman gone?"

Gordon asked, looking at Robin's back.

"Batman is busy with other things, not in Gotham for a while, you know, he has a team now, and I don't mean our outdated duo, but a big team."

Robin spread his hands and explained to Gordon.

"Justice League? I know. ”

"Don't worry, Director, Gotham and me, I can help you catch this Riddler Two."

Robin patted his chest and smiled confidently.

With that, he leapt off the edge of the rooftop and disappeared into the night.

-----------------

Meanwhile, inside a single-family house in Gotham City.

In the dimly lit room, a handsome young man blindfolded himself with a strip of cloth.

In front of him was a large square table with a bunch of scrambled playing cards and a timer.

The boy took a deep breath and reached out to press the switch on the timer.

Then his hands stretched out and quickly drew a few circles on the table, and all the playing cards were concentrated in the palm of the boy's palm, and then his hands turned up, holding them slightly, and the playing cards began to bend under the pressure.

Brush Brush Brush Brush!

When the pressure of bending is just right, the playing cards in your hand are ejected into the air like a fountain.

When the cards fly to a certain height, the upward elasticity is exhausted, and then they fall under the influence of gravity.

Next, a shocking scene happened.

When the first playing card that is bounced off is about to fall parallel to the height of the hand, all the cards in the hand are just out of the palm of the hand.

The playing cards that originally popped out of the boy's left hand fell smoothly to his right hand at this time, and even the cards behind them fell into the palm of his right hand, neatly and neatly.

In contrast, the stack of playing cards that had been on the right hand fell to the left hand.

The boy folded his hands and put the two stacks of cards together and spread them out in an arc on the table.

One card presses a small portion of another card, and each card is exposed almost the same distance.

The card that will be pressed to the bottom is slightly flipped up, and all the playing cards on the table will have a chain reaction like dominoes, and they will automatically flip over in turn.

The first card is the ace of spades, the second is the 2 of spades, and the third is the 3 of spades...... Until the King of Spades.

First spades, then hearts, clubs, and finally squares.

A deck of cards that had just been scattered randomly was now displayed perfectly on the square table in order.

Finally, press the stop timer.

The whole process is like a cloud of clouds, without any superfluous movements and pauses.

"Whew-"

The young man breathed a sigh of relief and ripped off the black cloth that covered his eyes, revealing a pair of blue pupils.

"27.21 seconds, 0.8 seconds faster than last month, not bad."

The boy's name is Dean Saston, and he is not a native of this world, but a time-traveler.

Dean's luck is not bad, the Saston family is a well-known magician family in Gotham, and his parents are both excellent stage magicians.

So even if his parents died in a car accident when he was just six years old, the property left behind was enough to ensure that Dean didn't have to worry about starving to death.

Rao is like this, Dean still has a huge sense of crisis in his heart.

Although he hadn't read DC comics seriously in his previous life, he had heard about many major events that had a wide impact.

What Star City exploded, what Brudhaven destroyed the whole city, what Seaside City more than 7 million souls, what Darkest Night Cosmic Tribulation and so on.

Even if you don't mention those horrific events, just say that Dean has lived in Gotham for all these years, and every night he has to set up a mechanism on the windowsill at the door before he dares to sleep.

The days to come will only become more and more sinister.

Fortunately, as a traverser, Dean also has his own golden finger - a game-like UI operation interface called "Miracle Monster Thief System".

Name: Dean Suston

Age: 16

Skills: Magic Mastery, Vehicle Mastery, Lockpicking Mastery, Shooting Mastery, Combat Mastery, Quick Disguise, No Prop Voice Change

Items: Card Gun, Hook Gun, Triangle Glider, Bulletproof Cloak"

This is Dean's personal panel in the system, and in addition to the panel, there is also an exchange mall.

There are all kinds of bread in the mall, from a pair of socks to the light of the creation of the universe.

According to the information provided in the system, the exchange requires a token called "exclamation value".

As the name suggests, exclamation is generated only when it shocks others.

An ordinary person can provide a little exclamation value at a time, and the higher the status level, the more exclamation points the object with stronger psychological endurance will provide.

But in the past ten years, Dean has not even earned a single exclamation point, and his current skills and items are basically from the system's activation packs.

To test his skills, Dean sometimes participates in stage magic shows and earns extra money.

Thanks to his parents' fame during their lifetime, many theaters or circuses welcomed him on stage.

Dean was also given the title of a genius young magician.

However, no matter how wonderful the magic he performed on stage and how surprised the audience was, the "exclamation value" in the system never increased.

Thinking of the name of the system, Dean couldn't help but wonder if it was a thief-like behavior that needed to earn exclamation points.

So the question is, what kind of behavior can be called a strange thief?

Dean's mind suddenly came up with one name after another, the elegant and romantic strange thief gentleman, the suave peerless thief, and the humorous and intelligent monkey-faced thief......

In the end, the freeze frame became a white and flawless figure, gorgeous, chic, elegant, and mysterious, almost combining all the advantages of the identity of the monster thief.

His name is - Kidd the Thief!
