"I don't trust you."

Batman said bluntly.

"Tsk, you're really not polite at all."

Kidd the Monster Thief smacked his lips and continued.

"But you should know very well that we don't have any time to waste right now, and Gotham doesn't have time to wait."

"The human bat virus leaked this time is not completely consistent with Kurt's original serum, and the mutated people did not retain the slightest reason, and were completely dominated by instinctive animal nature, while Kurt still retained at least part of his humanity at the beginning."

"This means that it is very likely that the person behind this incident modified the formula of the human bat serum, and this is the evidence."

Kidd, the thief, recounted calmly, and he pointed to a strange creature lying on the ground in the alley behind him.

Unlike the countless human bats in the sky, its overall characteristics are closer to those of humans than bats, especially the head has basically reverted to its human form, only the hair and claws have not changed.

It looks like a human bat that has used an inferior antidote, and it has no effect when it only recovers to half of its human form.

It wasn't long ago that Batman and Kidd the Monster Thief attacked a human bat when they found the origin of the virus.

The two of them easily dealt with it and then used an antidote on it.

It's just that this time it's Batman's antidote, after all, the Monster Thief Kidd Anti-Human Bat Elixir can't be manufactured in large quantities, if there are only a few human bats, it's okay to say, but the Eastern District is talking about hundreds of thousands of human bats, and this number is still growing rapidly.

Even if he stole Bruce Wayne, Kidd the strange thief couldn't even get so many exclamation points.

The reason why when he was in Robinson Park earlier, the strange thief Kidd took the initiative to take out the potion, on the one hand, was to let Batman understand the "reason" why he took the human bat serum in the first place, so that Batman would not be hostile to him at this point in the future.

He knew it would be impossible to remove Batman's hostility, but at least it would make that hostility less fatal.

On the other hand, it was also because Batman really didn't carry an antidote on his body at that time.

So where did Batman's human bat antidote come from at this time?

Just look up and see.

I saw that above the two thieves Kidd, a black bat-like flying machine hovered in the air, and it was a bat fighter.

The Batfighters are constantly surrounded by bats that pounce on them, and then they are repelled or even shot down by the various non-lethal weapons equipped with the Batfighters, preventing them from having a chance to get close to the monster thieves Kidd and Batman below.

Well...... The dazzling laser beams, as well as the Bat missiles that exploded across the sky, were all "non-lethal".

After learning of the situation on the East Side from the infected man who flew to Robinson Park, both Batman and Kidd the Monster Thief realized the seriousness of the situation.

So Batman temporarily called the bat fighter over as the main force to fight against the human bat army, and also transported a lot of antidote to human bat serum.

It was only when Batman used the antidote that they were surprised to find that the treatment was not very effective.

There are many possible reasons for this, such as the fact that the human bat virus that has now been released has changed the original formula of the human bat serum, making the mutated human bat more aggressive.

Or maybe Batman's antidote is based on Kurt's DNA combined with human bat serum, which can be regarded as a special drug for Kurt to some extent, and the effect will be discounted when used on other people.

Most likely, two reasons exist at the same time.

However, the antidote to the monster thief Kidd does not have this problem, and the inverse human bat reagent produced by the system is aimed at all DNA changes based on human bat serum, and all derivatives based on this can be effectively repaired.

Unless it's not a product of human bat serum.

"Batman, up to now, relying on the human bat serum antidote that you currently have can't perfectly solve these infected people, and how long will it take for you to collect samples and make changes to the antidote again? Can Gotham afford to wait? ”

Kidd the Strange Thief pointed out the key point with a serious face.

"And the antidote in my hand can perfectly cure these bats, this is what you have seen for yourself, although the number of antidotes I have is not large, but I know that the Wayne Group definitely has a device that can increase the effect of the antidote and spread it throughout the city."

At this point, his meaning is already very clear, the strange thief Kidd intends to use this device to spread the anti-human bat agent throughout the city to solve the current human bat plague.

"From here to Wayne Tower, there will be countless human bats in the middle, and I need the help of that big guy above."

Kidd said, pointing to the batfighter in the sky.

Batman was silent for a while, his face expressionless, unable to see what his intentions were.

Inside, Batman knew that Kidd the Thief was right, that his antidote would have to be further refined to cure the human mutant, but that would take time.

Kidd the Monster Thief already has a ready-made antidote, and using it directly is naturally the fastest and best solution.

And the Wayne Group does have a similar device, Batman asked Lucius Fox to build one many years ago, specifically to deal with this kind of city-level biochemical attack, such as the fear gas of the scarecrow, the laughing gas of the Joker, the poisonous spores of the poison ivy girl, and so on.

Executing Kidd's proposal will definitely resolve the incident without incident.

However, even at this juncture, Batman's suspicion of Kidd the monster thief is still undiminished.

Even though he knew in his heart that it was impossible, he was still thinking about what if Kidd was an undercover agent behind the scenes?

"Why should you involve yourself? It's a life-threatening thing, and you're just a thrill-seeking, cheer-hungry thief, why are you so keen to save people who have nothing to do with you? ”

Finally, Batman spoke.

"Huh? Because I can save ah, I can do what I can, and I won't do it if I can't do it, isn't it a matter of course? ”

Hearing this, the strange thief Kidd raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.

"If you really want me to give a reason, it's that sooner or later the human bat virus will spread throughout Gotham, and that is unacceptable to everyone in Gotham, including me."

Batman continued: "But you don't need to risk yourself, you give me the antidote in your hand, and then hide where the virus hasn't spread yet, and I can let you go today." ”

"Nope."

Kidd the Monster Thief shook his head firmly, "I can't accept this one, I don't want my name to be found on the list of heroes who saved the city by then, you just want to enjoy the vanity of being a hero." ”

Batman frowned, and thought to himself, "What if I suddenly subdue Kidd the Monster Thief and take the antidote from him now...... No, the chance of success is less than 50%, and it's more likely that he will destroy the potion the moment I do it......"

After some deduction, Batman finally made a decision and agreed to work with Kidd the Monster Thief.

"From now on, don't think about leaving my sight, I'll keep an eye on you."

Staring into the eyes of the monster thief Kidd, Batman said.

"You've finally figured it out, and it's not easy to convince you."

After getting Batman's consent, Kidd the Monster Thief couldn't help but sigh.

"So, should we give this temporary duo a name?"

Kidd said on a whim.

"How about calling it black and white?"

“…… You're not good at telling bad jokes at all. ”

Batman faintly regretted it, he promised too hastily just now.

Perhaps snatching the potion from Kidd the Monster Thief was the right choice.

What he didn't know was that even if he really directly attacked the monster thief Kidd just now and successfully subdued him, he wouldn't be able to get the anti-human bat reagent.

Because Kidd the Monster Thief hadn't redeemed it from the system at this time.

"yes, I'm actually serious, if you don't like the name, then you can think of something else."

Kidd shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

"Shut up."

Batman coldly stopped Kidd the Monster Thief.

Somehow, Kidd the Thief's act of naming reminded Batman of the early days of Robin, when Robin also liked to name all sorts of things, especially about Batman.

Batrang, Batmobile, Batfighter, Batmobile...... These names are actually all from Robin, and Batman doesn't actually like to name his equipment, even though Robin has similar names.

Robin even named the vomit bucket he had prepared for the first time when he was training to drive a Batmobile to deal with motion sickness caused by high speeds.

How cute Robin was at that time, no matter what Batman said, he would take it as a guideline and execute it without hesitation.

It's a pity that now...... Alas.

At this moment, the rope ladder lowered from the Batfighter fell in front of Batman and Kidd the Monster Thief.

It is said to be a rope ladder, but the overall texture does not look like an ordinary rope at all, but like some kind of soft metal material.

The location of the two thieves Kidd was in a deep alley, and the bat fighters could not land to meet them, and the human bats that were constantly whirling and flying in the sky also blocked the route for the two to climb onto the roof to board the plane.

So you have to use the slightly older way of climbing the rope ladder.

The Bat Fighter lowered its height and almost stuck to the roofs of the buildings on both sides of the alley, and the entrance directly below opened to minimize the possibility of human bats attacking the rope ladder in the vicinity.

At Batman's request, Kidd the Monster Thief is the first to climb the rope ladder.

Like he said before, he wouldn't let Kidd the Monster Thief out of his sight.

After the two of them entered the interior of the Batfighter as fast as they could, the entrance closed instantly.

"Is this what the inside of the Batfighter looks like?"

Kidd, the strange thief, looked at the cabin full of technology in front of him, and was vaguely excited in his heart.

In the whole of Gotham, all the supervillains, how many can see the true face of the Batfighter?

Even if most people have boarded the Bat fighter, they are probably locked in the cell at the end of the fighter plane in an unconscious state, and they have never had a chance to see what the cockpit looks like.

Kidd the Thief quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart, only to have more important tasks to complete.

"Get in the passenger seat and don't touch anything."

Batman's indifferent voice came.

"Tsk, don't you know that the more you tell people not to touch it, the more people will want to touch it?"

Kidd the Strange Thief waved his hand.

Batman gave a cold look back.

"Okay, I'll sit down now."

Kidd, the strange thief, raised his hand in surrender and obediently went to the co-pilot to sit down.

"Wow, this chair is good, it's comfortable to sit on."

After sitting down for a few seconds, Kidd the Monster Thief looked a little surprised.

At the same time, he jokingly said, "I thought that when I sat down, some handcuff collar or something would pop up on the chair and restrain me." ”

“……”

Hearing the words of the monster thief Kidd, Batman's eyes changed instantly, and the hand behind his back stopped touching somewhere.

"I know you can't trust me, Batman, but I haven't trusted you either."

At this moment, Kidd's face suddenly became serious, as if his previous carelessness was pretended.

"You were definitely planning to activate something, right? It should be said that from the time I got into the Batfighter, I had already stepped into a huge cage. ”

Kidd said with a smirk.

"And, when you were on the ground, you actually thought about taking the antidote directly from me."

"I mean, it's a good thing you didn't, oh no, it's a shame you didn't."

At this point, Kidd the Strange Thief had an extremely confident expression.

"You know what? Before I can learn to steal, I must first learn to hide something, there is nothing I can't steal, and at the same time, no one can find my things. ”

"Do you want to bet that you activate the mechanism on the seat now, or just knock me unconscious and put me down, you can search me, you will never find what you want."

Kidd the Monster Thief looked at Batman fearlessly, his whole body relaxed, and he didn't make the slightest act of vigilance, as if he could really let Batman do it.

But how could this be, his heart had already been raised to his throat, and even the system had been called.

As long as Batman makes any abnormal moves, Kidd the Monster Thief will exchange for the item as quickly as possible, and instantly paralyze the entire Batfighter.

Fortunately, the imaginary picture did not happen.

Batman sat in the driver's seat with a calm expression and said calmly: "You think too much." ”

"Well, let's think I'm thinking too much."

Kidd the Strange Thief replied calmly.

The two sat in their respective positions without saying a word, and Batman flew in the direction of Wayne Tower in the Batfighter, rushing out of the encirclement of countless human bats over the East End.

During the flight of the Bat fighter, more and more human bats rushed over to attack, but none of them could break through the defense of the Bat fighter, and could only slow down the advance speed of the Bat fighter.

Despite this, the speed of the Batfighter still surpasses that of a normal helicopter.

"The scan results show that Kidd the Monster Thief does not carry the antidote to the human bat virus."

At this moment, under the bat helmet, Batman is watching the scan records transmitted by the Batfighter.

It turned out that as early as the moment the monster thief Kidd stepped into the Batfighter, the Batfighter automatically scanned his whole body.

It's just that the results of the scan are not ideal, the body data of the strange thief Kidd is actually a mess of garbled, and a lot of the objects he is carrying have been scanned, card guns, hook guns, triangle gliders, bulletproof cloaks, smoke grenades...... The usual equipment of Kidd the Thief is on display.

The only thing is that there is no anti-human bat potion.

This is also the reason why Batman finally gave up on the thief Kidd, and he can't be sure what the thief Kidd relies on.
