"Why are there mutant bats in Wayne Tower?"

Kidd the Strange Thief asked, looking at Lucius.

"I remember everyone here should have been evacuated, there is no way that there will be mutant bats coming in."

"At first, I thought the same as you, Kidd the Thief."

Lucius replied.

"About half an hour ago, I received a notice from Batman that he asked me to wait for you in Wayne Tower, and at that time we all thought it would be safe in the building, but we were wrong."

Speaking of this, Lucius sighed and continued, "It is true that all the employees of the Wayne Group have been evacuated, but this building is not empty! ”

"A few hours ago, when the Kamen Club was besieging the Wayne Building, a team was sent into the building to search for Bruce's whereabouts, but it didn't take long for the Kamen Club to move to Robinson Park."

Kidd, the thief, looked pale.

"It seems that you have already thought about it, yes, when the Kamen Club left, they didn't take all the members with them, and they still left twenty or thirty people in the Wayne Building."

"Tsk, Kamen Club, these people are really haunted."

Kidd the Strange Thief sighed.

"At that time, everyone was relieved that the Kamen Club had retreated, and no one had the heart to count their numbers, so we subconsciously thought that all of them had left."

As a result, when Lucius rushed back to Wayne Tower, he was unprepared for a mutant bat.

Fortunately, he took the main entrance route and took the elevator directly to the floor where the monitoring room was located, and happened to encounter a mutant bat not far from the monitoring room, which gave the monster thief Kidd a chance to save his life.

Otherwise, if Lucius had been attacked anywhere other than the surveillance room, he would have been powerless by now.

At that time, even if the thief Kidd finds Lucius's location through the monitoring room, he will not be able to save him, because the gap between "recovery" and "resurrection" is like a moat.

Especially in the system mall, the price of resurrection items is scary, not to mention that the monster thief Kidd doesn't have so many exclamation points, and even if he has it, it is impossible to really spend so much to save Lucius.

After all, they are just two strangers who don't have much to do with each other.

Because Lucius's injuries were so severe, he lost consciousness after barely hiding in the monitoring room, and he didn't have time to send a signal to Batman.

"In other words, there are at least twenty or more mutant human bats lurking in this building at this moment......

Kidd the Monster Thief walked into the surveillance room and looked at the surveillance display above.

"Nearly half of the surveillance footage is black, and now there are only eight mutant human bats that can be seen in the surveillance."

In addition to the two mutant bats that were defeated by the monster thief Kidd at the beginning and the one that was electrocuted at the door of the monitoring room, there are at least nine or more mutant human bats whose location is unknown.

"Mr. Fawkes, do you know where that potion amplification diffusion device is hiding in Wayne Tower?"

After jotting down the known location of the mutant bats, Kidd turned to Lucius and asked.

"You're talking about the Jocolat device, which is hidden in the lab numbered A4869 on the forty-fifth floor."

Lucius replied, then pulled an ID card from his clothes and handed it to Kidd, the thief.

"Only with my card do I have access to it, and I can't go with you in my current physical condition, but I can contact you in the monitoring room, and I'll instruct you on how to operate the Jokerat device when the time comes."

Kidd the Thief nodded, put his ID card away, and turned to leave.

He had barely taken a few steps when Lucius's voice rang out again.

"Kidd the Thief...... Thank you for saving my life, Robin is right, you are a good person at heart. ”

Kidd the Monster Thief paused and continued to walk outside the monitoring room, not looking back.

Lucius watched the thief Kidd walk out the door, praying inwardly that the latter would make it there, and at this moment, the hopes of countless people in Gotham were in the hands of Kidd the thief.

He didn't stay stupid all the time, and as the sound of the door closing, Lucius limped to the monitor desk with his badly injured body and sat down, while sending a message to Batman explaining what had just happened.

——

At the same time, countless media workers in Gotham City who watched the live broadcast also silently prayed in their hearts for Kidd the Monster Thief, wishing him all the best.

Some people are condemning the Masquerade Club and the Black Mask that formed the club.

"I can't believe that there are so many bat monsters in the Wayne Building, which should be empty, the Kamen Club really doesn't do anything at all, Black Mask is really a disgusting criminal, and he is to blame for all the bad things that happened in Gotham today!"

Others have changed their opinion of Kidd the Thief for saving Lucius's life.

"Originally, I thought Kidd the Monster Thief was just a selfish and vain thief who had no interest in him, even if he said that he was going to steal the virus, I never believed it, but now I can be sure that my misunderstanding of Kidd the Thief was too great."

Others were amazed at Kidd's ability to deal with mutant bats.

"Those infected with the virus can locate sound waves like bats, and through the reflection of ultrasound waves, they can accurately determine the location and shape of all things around them, which should be their absolute advantage, but they were used by the monster thief Kidd to set up an ambush in turn, and the monster thief Kidd's combat intelligence is not weak at all."

No matter how different people care about it, they all share the same aspiration at this time.

That's the way Kidd the Monster Thief is looking for the device, don't let anything happen again, this incident really needs to be over.

On the other side, Batman finally got a letter from Lucius, and the stone hanging in his heart finally landed, and he didn't mistakenly believe in Kidd the thief.

It only takes a little more time for Kidd the Monster Thief to find the Jokolath device, and the human bat virus crisis that has swept through Gotham can be successfully resolved.

What we have to do after that is to find out who is behind this incident!

——

Wayne Building, following Lucius's instructions, Kidd the Monster Thief took the elevator closest to A4869 Labs.

Now that he has temporarily borrowed Lucius's ID card, it is equivalent to having the highest authority in the Wayne Building except for Bruce Wayne himself.

With the exception of a few top-secret locations that require iris or palm authentication, Kidd the Thief of all other facilities can enter and exit at will.

The floor where the monitoring room is located is the 88th floor, and it takes about 10 seconds to go down to the 45th floor.

During this time, Kidd the Thief thought back to the shortest route Lucius had told him.

"When the elevator door opens, there is a T-shaped fork in front of you, enter the corridor on the left and go about 35 meters to turn right, then enter the third fork, and the seventh laboratory on the right hand is the destination......"

"This route is not shown on the surveillance screen, and it is not certain if there are mutant human bats in front of it, which is also the most dangerous place."

Seeing the elevator floor jumping down little by little, the strange thief Kidd was on guard, taking out a card gun and an electric shock device in his hand, in case a mutant bat happened to be blocking the elevator door, he could be the first to attack.

"Let's hope you don't carry it like that."

In this moment!

Bite!

A crisp bell rang, and the elevator door slowly opened outward.

Kidd, the strange thief, raised his card gun and stunner, and his mind was highly concentrated.

Fortunately, the expected mutant human bats are not outside, and I don't know if they went to wander around somewhere else, or if they don't know what it means to be a rabbit at all.

Without time to delay, Kidd the Monster Thief quickly confirmed the situation on both sides of the line, and then proceeded according to the established route.

In order to prevent the hearing mutant manbat from noticing the sound of running, Kidd the Monster Thief carefully controlled his pace, speeding up without making a sound.

As for the bell of the elevator just now, it rang before the door opened, and the elevator itself was very soundproof, and it was not very likely to be heard from the corridor outside.

Within minutes, Kidd the Monster Thief was in front of the door of A4869's lab.

Luckily, I didn't encounter mutant bats blocking the way along the way, and I think about it, Wayne Building is more than eighty stories tall and covers a large area.

There are only twenty or thirty mutant human bats, scattered all over Wayne Building, and the probability of running into them is actually very low, and the situation where Kidd the strange thief bumps into two as soon as he comes in is actually considered to have won the lottery.

Kidd the Strange Thief had a safe journey, and the viewers who were watching the live broadcast felt even more fortunate that God still protected Gotham.

"Kidd, the thief, can you hear me?"

Just as Kidd the Monster Thief opened the lab with Lucius' ID card, a voice came from nowhere.

"Mr. Fawkes?"

Kidd the Strange Thief heard the voice of the owner.

"I'm talking to you in the monitoring room with a broadcast device, have you arrived at the lab?"

Since the surveillance camera was damaged, Lucius couldn't see the lab, so he asked.

"You're just in time, Mr. Fawkes, and I was about to ask you what that Jokerat device looks like, and where is it?"

Kidd the Strange Thief had already walked into the laboratory at this time, looked at the various strange equipment placed inside, and asked Lucius.

This laboratory is not big, or even very small, with an area of only 20 square meters, and it is more of a showroom for experimental equipment than a laboratory.

Oddly enough, there was no device that seemed to be able to amplify a tube of potion to spread throughout the city.

The most conspicuous piece of equipment is in the innermost part of the laboratory, a large object like an operating table.

"The main body of the Chokerat device is not in Lab A4869, which is where the console of the Chokerat device is located."

At this point, Lucius gave an answer.

"The Joe Colat device is actually hidden on the top floor of the Wayne Building, but it can only be raised with a console."

"I see, now tell me how to operate this console."

Kidd the Strange Thief asked non-stop.

"Of course, I contacted you for this ......"

After some time, Kidd the Thief completed the final actions on the console.

I saw a mechanical arm suddenly stretched out from the console, and above the mechanical arm was a receiver that could just be embedded in a syringe.

"When the antidote to the human bat virus is loaded, the Jocolat device will automatically start replicating the components of the antidote, and then reproduce the same antidote in large quantities, and finally spread through the air throughout Gotham through the emitter that extends from the rooftop."

Lucius explained.

"Understood."

When Kidd heard this, he immediately pretended to take it into his arms, exchanged it for the anti-human bat reagent, and embedded it in the receiver.

The robotic arm then retracts into the console with the reagents, and the Jocolat unit operates on its own, eliminating any additional manipulation.

"That way, it's over."

After doing all this, Kidd the Strange Thief breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, in another ten minutes, the Chokorat device will finish copying the potion, and the matter will be over."

Inside the surveillance room, Lucius also relaxed.

"The rest is just a matter of time."

Kidd the Monster Thief nodded, and pulled out of the lab.

"During this time, I have been mentally tense, and although my physical strength has not been greatly consumed, I still feel a little tired."

Rubbing his neck as he thought, Kidd the Strange Thief returned to the elevator.

Of course, he didn't want to go back to Lucius, but went straight to the rooftop and left here.

Bite!

The bell rings, the elevator starts, and it begins to climb upwards.

However, just as the elevator had just risen less than two floors, a crashing sound suddenly sounded from above the elevator.

The force of the impact was so great that the entire elevator vibrate.

Then there was another tearing sound, as if some sharp object was scraping against the iron sheet at the top of the elevator.

Kidd, the strange thief, secretly said that it was not good, and the one above the elevator was definitely a mutant human bat.

But why?

The bell of the elevator should not be heard outside......

Suddenly, Kidd the Strange Thief realizes something that he has overlooked.

The overall structure of the elevator is indeed airtight, and it is difficult for the sound inside to spread to the corridor outside the elevator room.

But at the same time, because the elevator space is too confined to the design of ventilation, the design of ventilation is particularly important, and the elevator vent of the Wayne Building is designed at the top.

With the flow of the wind, the sound can naturally be heard.

In the elevator shaft, you can hear the bell of the elevator and even the sound of the elevator running!

Before, there was definitely a mutant manbat hiding in the elevator shaft!

And there weren't any surveillance cameras in the elevator shaft, so Lucius couldn't alert Kidd, the thief.

While!

At that moment, there was a loud bang at the top of the elevator, and an arm with sharp claws and black fur appeared in front of Kidd, the thief.

The steel skin on the top of the elevator was actually stabbed by a mutant human bat!

Kidd the Monster Thief was quick-eyed, and the moment he saw his claws come down, he fought back.

He pulled out the shocker and turned it on to its maximum voltage, then slammed it upwards.

Zizi

The intense high-voltage electricity suddenly electrocuted the mutant bat's arm to blacken, and its arm began to twitch uncontrollably.

Not only that, but even its body began to move wildly, shaking the elevator constantly.

Soon, the mutant manbat stopped moving.

Just when Kidd the Strange Thief thought that the danger had been lifted, a sudden change occurred!
