Chapter 161: It's Time to Take Inventory of the Harvest
"Did you find any clues?"
At this moment, Robin also jumped down and asked next to Batman.
“…… No, Kidd the Strange Thief's anti-reconnaissance ability is also outstanding, he must have been professionally trained, and few people can notice such a tiny thing. ”
Batman didn't go back either.
"When I get back, I'm going to make a major revision of the Kidd file on the bat computer."
"Look, I told you a long time ago that Kidd the Thief is not as simple as it seems."
Hearing this, Robin clasped his hands and said.
"You're right, so what?"
Batman asked, turning his head and expressionless.
"Are you now complacent that I misjudged the abilities of a criminal?"
"Of course not! God above, how can you think that? I'm just saying that Kidd the Thief needs to be given the attention he deserves! Well, I'd like to counter your previous questioning of my abilities because I never caught Kidd the Monster Thief, but it's not what you said. ”
Robin frowned and said dissatisfied.
Batman didn't speak, but took out a strangely shaped pistol from his multi-purpose belt, the barrel was not the usual round but square, the tail of the barrel was made wide, and a display was installed.
After pulling out the gun, Batman aimed it at the end of the tunnel and pulled the trigger.
However, this pistol does not shoot bullets, but a high-frequency sound wave that cannot be seen, touched, or heard.
When the sound waves reach the end of the tunnel, they are reflected back and re-picked up by the pistol.
After a while, a string of numbers appeared above the barrel in kilometers.
This is a sonic rangefinder gun.
"This tunnel leads to the Giordano Arboretum, Robin, come with me!"
Batman flicked a sentence for Robin to follow, and went up from the hole to the ground.
"What's going on?"
As soon as Batman came up, Gordon and the others surrounded him, and when the former searched the cave, no one except Robin dared to approach.
"Kidd the Strange Thief has escaped with the gem, and the tunnel he dug leads to the Giordano Botanical Garden, I'm going to check it out there now."
Batman replied without emotion.
"Let my people go too."
Gordon proposed.
"No, you can't keep up."
As Batman spoke, he boarded the Batfighter, and Robin sulked followed.
Looking at the bat fighter that had gone after liftoff, Gordon was silent for a moment.
"What are you guys looking at? We still have work to do! Hurry up and get the bat lights up, the tunnels under the Cavaliers Stadium need to be filled as soon as possible, otherwise who knows if there will be a landslide one day! ”
Suddenly, Gordon turned around and turned to the crowd behind him, who were standing motionless.
"Yes! Sir! ”
As soon as Gordon spoke, everyone immediately began to get busy.
——
As the saying goes, some people are happy and some people are sad.
Kidd the Thief's performance at Cavaliers Stadium was a great success, and there was no doubt that Kidd the Thief was going to rejoice, and the audience who watched Kidd the Thief was also happy.
As for those who are worried, GCPD who has failed repeatedly and someone who has failed in challenging it is naturally indispensable, at least in the eyes of the public.
But there is a person who is out of the public eye, who is also worried.
Who is this man?
"Fack! Can anyone tell me why Kidd the Monster Thief won again this time? Why? Why is Robin the one who dealt with Kidd the Thief? Someone! Can you tell me! Why doesn't Batman come out until the man runs away? ”
Inside the Iceberg Club, the penguins shouted angrily.
"Did Batman get his head caught in the door? He didn't even appear until Kidd the Strange Thief had run away! Doesn't he always like to be elusive? Doesn't he often act with Robin? Why didn't it work this time? ”
"In the past few days, I have asked the major gangs in Gotham to restrain their subordinates and give Batman enough time to deal with Kidd, the monster thief, and he actually did nothing!"
In the room, several small leaders of the penguins, led by Ogilvi, stood in the corner, not daring to move.
"Thirty million! I'm missing 30 million for no reason! Damn Matchstick Malone, he's definitely doing something I don't know! Otherwise, how could he be sure that Batman wouldn't personally deal with Kidd the Monster Thief? ”
As soon as he remembered the bet he made with Match Malone a few days ago, the penguin man was furious.
At the beginning, he thought that Match Malone was taking this matter, and bribed himself around the corner, just to send him money.
Although the penguin people don't know what match Malone needs help with, 30 million is not a small amount of money, if Match Malone really wants to ask him to do something, it is not impossible, the money is in place and everything is easy to talk about.
If you don't have enough money, you can add more.
Until an hour ago, the Penguins thought so in their hearts.
However, after watching Kidd, the thief, the Penguin's mentality changed.
He realized that Match Malone definitely didn't want to give away money when he proposed the bet that day, but to win money!
Don't look at the scale of the Penguin's assets, 30 million US dollars is not a lot, but this is real cash, and it is still a real banknote that can be circulated, not black money and not counterfeit money.
It's hard to say that the penguins are particularly heartbroken, but it's definitely bloody.
"Okilvie!"
Suddenly, the penguin turned his gaze to Okilvi and said viciously, "Check! Find out what Match Marlon has been doing lately? Who did you meet? Did the Matchsticks break the VAM agreement? ”
His eyes were full of fierce light, and Okilvi felt a fur in his heart.
If it is found out that Match Malone did not do anything that would interfere with Batman during this period of time, and did not run to meet any suspicious people, then he Penguin Man considered himself unlucky, and he was willing to gamble and lose, but he had never earned the 30 million.
But!
If he finds out that something is wrong with Match Malone these days, and he deliberately wants to blow up the penguin people's money, then don't think about turning the page easily!
As for what kind of magic the thief Kidd used, the penguin didn't care, and he didn't think that Batman would miscalculate the thief Kidd's plan of action.
In short, in the Penguin people's cognition, Gotham has never had anyone that Batman can't deal with.
"Yes, boss, I'll check it out right away!"
Okilvie bowed his head and took the order, and then walked out of the room.
——
On the other side, Gotham Diamond District, the Suston House.
Dean went back and forth after a lot of effort to dispose of the sludge on his body and put on a clean disguise before going around home.
This was followed by the usual inspections.
"It's not bad, it seems that my identity is still safe for the time being."
Dean dragged his tired body back to the room and collapsed on the bed.
"Now, it's time to settle the quest rewards."
With anticipation, Dean summoned the system.
