In the window seat in the back row, Dean listened to the slight sound in the headphones and thought to himself.

"Dick let someone go to the museum......"

Why can Dean hear Dick's call?

In fact, the method is very simple, as long as you can decipher the frequency band corresponding to electromagnetic waves when Dick and Barbara are talking, and then cooperate with a series of means, you can easily achieve the purpose of monitoring.

Of course, this level of technology Dean has not yet mastered, and he does not have the tools to do so right now.

In fact, Dean installed a tiny bugging device that looked like chewing gum on the reverse side of the edge of the corner of Dick's desk, which was the outer edge of the top that was more than the drawer.

It's not the first day that Dean wiretaps Dick, as early as the day he debuted as the monster thief Kidd, Dean has already begun to consciously listen to Dick, coming to school early in the morning to install a bug and collect it directly after school.

This is a very bold and dangerous act, and if Dick finds out about the existence of the bugging, or if Dick has some kind of quirk that likes to touch under the table, the situation will be very bad for Dean.

But on the other hand, Dean knew that Dick was fairly comfortable with him so far, and after all these years of knowing him, Dean had never noticed that Dick had a habit of checking the bottom of the table.

Even if Dick stumbles upon the bugging, Dean can prevaricate with a sticky gum prank, albeit with no less difficulty.

All in all, given Dick's special status as Robin, there was even a small chance of hearing useful information, and Dean decided that the risk was worth taking.

As it turned out, Dean was more or less right.

"Who's talking to Dick, Alfred? Unfortunately, the bugging could only hear Dick's voice, not the sound in his headphones. ”

Dean looked impassive, ostensibly listening attentively, but in fact most of his attention was on Dick.

On the other side, Barbara seemed to wander casually around the exhibition site, indistinguishable from the ordinary tourists around her.

"You're in such a hurry to ask me to come to the museum to scout, have you already unraveled the notice letter?"

Barbara whispered to Dick.

“…… Only one sentence was solved. ”

Dick was silent for a moment, then replied.

"When Mars spent the tenth day and night, it meant that Kidd the Monster Thief would be on March 11th."

"Mars, the god of war in Roman mythology, is the origin of March, and the tenth day and night is literally ten days, that is, March 11."

Barbara wasn't surprised that Dick unraveled the sentence, because she did, and more than Dick.

"You know Kidd the Thief won't do it until the 11th, why did I come here on the first day? Did you know that I'm very busy at work every day? ”

Dick tugged at the corners of his mouth, as if he hadn't been to the library, and he pretended not to hear and continued.

"I've fought Kidd the thief twice, and while he'll wait for the teased time to come, it's not like he'll only be there at that time."

"Kidd's every action is fast, fast and accurate, his every move is very purposeful, and the planning of the escape route is even more interlocking, which shows that he knows the terrain of the scene very well, and this level of understanding cannot be achieved in just a few hours."

Dick said seriously, "I'm sure Kidd the Strange Thief starts scouting the target location days or even weeks in advance of each operation. ”

"Today is the first day of the exhibition, and it is also the first day that GCPD has settled in a large area, and it is likely that Kidd the thief will start to observe the police post layout from this time on, and you may be able to find some clues."

"I still have to take three days of classes to take two days off, so it's inconvenient to take time off to go to the exhibition hall."

"So you're asking me to come over? Looks like you've learned some lessons from your fight against Kidd the Monster Thief. ”

After listening to Dick's words, Barbara finally knew why the boy had come to the museum so early in the morning.

"Actually, there are more important reasons."

At this time, Dick suddenly said in a solemn tone: "At the Gotham Hotel auction, the monster thief Kidd once gave me a card of invitation to Robin, and at that time I was Dick Grayson, not Robin!" ”

Hearing this, Barbara's face suddenly became calm.

"You're saying Kidd the Thief knows who you are? Why didn't you say something so important earlier? You should have told me that day! ”

"What about Bruce and Afu? And me? All of us exposed? ”

Dick said in a deep voice: "No, I think you haven't been exposed, I happened to be with Ah Fu at that time, and it is very likely that Bruce will be found through this relationship, but I don't have much personal contact with you, and we don't know each other on the surface, and the thief Kidd has no way to find out your identity." ”

Listening to Dick's words, Barbara somehow remembered Dean.

She suddenly asked, "Dick, do you recognize Dean Suston?" ”

"Dean? He's my classmate, what are you mentioning him for? ”

Dick asked, puzzled.

"I met him in the library the other day, when he was reading Greco-Roman and other religious works, and then Kidd's new teaser has a distinctly Roman element, and he is also a magician who became famous at a young age, don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?"

Barbara whispered.

"Do you suspect Dean is the Kidd the Thief?" Dick raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "I know Dean, he couldn't have done that." ”

Here and now, Dean, who was sitting at the table in front of Dick, suddenly felt a sense of guilt for some reason.

Well...... Probably because the carbohydrate and fat intake has been a bit excessive recently, so it is necessary to maintain a low body fat rate.

After making his inner decision, Dean continued to eavesdrop on Dick's call.

"I know you're friends with Dean, and to be honest, I don't think badly of him, and I don't want to doubt him, but it's such a coincidence."

Barbara made a proposal to Dick, "None of us want Dean to be the Kidd the Rogue, so I decided to give you an important mission, not because I doubt him, but to prove Dean's innocence." ”

Dick was a little hesitant after listening to Barbara's proposal, but in the end, Barbara's suspicions were justified.

"Well, I agree with you."

Dick wasn't a twriggler, and when he figured it out, he immediately agreed.

"Don't worry, we're not going to wrong any good guys, right-"

Barbara asked with a smile in her eyes.

"Do you want to know what exactly 20 times 3 equals 4 means?"
