"Do you really think so?"

Dick glanced at Dean with a strange look.

The latter said with a natural expression: "Of course, as long as you have seen the performance of the monster thief Kidd, there is no one in the world who loves magic who will not respect him." ”

"How do I remember you saying before, 'Peers are enemies'? You also say that the tricks used by Kidd the Thief are just a trick that beginner magicians can do. ”

Dick smirked.

"Huh? Belch...... That's what I said on purpose at the time for the sake of face, so I really thought that a beginner magician could reach the level of Kidd the Monster Thief. ”

Seeing this, Dean scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a dry smile.

"Of course I know that ordinary magicians can't reach the level of Kidd the Monster Thief, but it's just a little surprising that you suddenly started complimenting Kidd the Monster Thief."

Dick shrugged.

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about these things, you called me here to catch the monster thief Kidd, we have to hurry into the exhibition hall of the 'Hope Blue Diamond', otherwise we won't be able to squeeze in when there are too many people."

Dean looked at Dick and said solemnly.

"Then again, why didn't you see Barbara today?"

Suddenly, Dean looked left and right and asked curiously.

"Barbara has a bit of an urgent business to attend to today, so she didn't come."

Dick explained.

"I see, that's a pity."

Dean said with a hint of regret in his tone.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but at that moment just now, Dick seemed to see a flash of surprise in Dean's eyes.

The look was fleeting, and the look in Dean's eyes was so clear that Dick wondered if he had really seen it.

"What are you thinking, Richard?"

Looking at Dick, who was a little stunned, Dean asked.

"Oh, nothing, just wondering when Kidd the Thief will show up today."

Dick suddenly came to his senses and smiled as usual.

Dean nodded, and led the way to the exhibition hall after the transfer of the Blue Diamond of Hope.

Looking at Dean's back, a deep light flashed in the depths of Dick's eyes.

Because the strange thief Kidd deliberately made the people in the exhibition hall find out that they had disguised themselves as repairmen, the police and the museum found out all kinds of cats in the original independent exhibition hall, completely destroying all the arrangements of Catwoman.

Although only a few people know that the mechanisms in the Independence Gallery are the work of Catwoman, the vast majority still think that they are the work of the thief Kidd.

In short, the original independent exhibition hall must no longer be in use, and the 'Hope Blue Diamond' was moved to another regular exhibition hall.

This happened in such a hurry that there was no way to recreate a place with a higher level of security than the independent showroom, so the 'Hope Blue Diamond' could only be moved to a relatively safe showroom.

That is the east exhibition hall on the fifth floor of the Aofei Jewelry Exhibition Hall, which is located on the edge of the building, with windows on two sides and only one entrance.

The windows on both sides look like glass, but they are actually made of high-strength glass that is fireproof, explosion-proof, cold-resistant, and high-temperature, and there is no possibility of breaking them unless they are bombarded with heavy firepower weapons.

At the same time, the Hope Blue Diamond booth was placed in the middle of the exhibition hall and was equipped with a high-precision gravity sensing device, which would trigger an alarm even if only a few grams of external force was applied to the Hope Blue Diamond.

The only strange thing is that the 'Hope Blue Diamond' was already protected by a bulletproof glass cover on the stand, but Director Aoife still insisted on keeping the 'Hope Blue Diamond' in the box he had brought, claiming that if he didn't, bad luck would befall him.

He had been in this attitude for a few days before, and everyone couldn't resist him, so they had to keep the previous container.

"Director Gordon, did you mean what you just said?"

In the hallway at the entrance to the east exhibition hall, Besska looked at Gordon with a shocked face and asked.

"Ever since we discovered the secret passages and gas masks in the Independence Gallery, Karina has mysteriously disappeared, no one has seen her, and no surveillance cameras have captured her movements, leaving only a few scattered meaningless images."

Gordon nodded solemnly.

"Miss Biska, I beg you to tell me now, is there really such an employee as 'Karina' in the Smithsonian Museums?"

Besska shook her head and said, "She's a security expert hired from overseas after we announced our Gotham exhibition plans, and to be honest, I don't know much about her than you do. ”

"Then it's very likely that 'Karina' is a fake identity, I have enough reason to suspect that she is the thief who disguised you to inquire about Curator Ofe, and as for her true identity, it is likely that she is a veteran thief in Gotham, named Selena Kyle, nicknamed Catwoman."

Gordon introduced Biska to him.

"It's horrible."

Biska said with a scared face, "Karina has always behaved professionally, I never thought she would be a thief, if she really stole the 'Blue Diamond of Hope', the consequences would be unimaginable!" ”

"But on the other hand, the more clever the thief, the more professional he is at preventing theft, after all, no one knows the ins and outs of this business better than them."

At this moment, Dean walked over at some point, and Dick followed him.

"Makes sense."

Gordon glanced at Dean in surprise, but pulled his face up the next second.

"This is not the place where the two of you should stay, it's okay to visit normally, and it's forbidden to obstruct the police handling the case!"

Dean and Dick, who had been blasted away by Gordon, silently turned around and walked towards the entrance to the exhibition hall at the front of the hallway.

"Why didn't you say that when Barbara was here? You have to talk in the corridor, you have the ability to block the corridor and don't let people pass, it's not normal to be heard talking by someone passing by, and want to interject a few words? ”

Dean whispered.

"You'd better say a few words, lest Director Gordon get angry and kick us both out of the exhibition hall."

Dick tapped him on the shoulder and reminded.

"Don't worry, he won't hear you."

Dean confidently patted his chest and said it was okay.

"Hey! Look, Harvey is up front. ”

At this moment, Dick suddenly pointed to the entrance of the exhibition hall.

I saw my old friend Harvey Bullock leading a team to guard the door, surrounded by a dozen policemen, both men and women, who were routinely checking everyone who entered the exhibition hall to see if anyone was wearing a disguise mask.

Seeing this scene, Dean's pupils instantly contracted.

Dick, who had been staring at him since he finished speaking, quickly caught this, and his eyes froze slightly.

"What's wrong, Dean? You're not afraid of being pinched in the face, right? ”

Dick said with a teasing smile.

"Hmph~ How is it possible? I'm not a child, so who would be afraid of such a thing? ”

Dean snorted and strode forward to line up, Dick following closely behind him.

When it was Dean's turn to be examined, Dick's eyes widened, staring at Bullock's movements and Dean's reaction.
