Becoming a Phantom Thief from the World of American Comics.

Chapter 5 Kidd and Robin

The gunshot rang out suddenly, and Dean didn't change his face, as if he had expected it.

At the same time as the gunshot rang out, no, almost a second before the gunshot rang out, Dean had already reacted.

Dean quickly turned to face the direction of the bullet, and then quickly grabbed the corner of the cloak and raised it high, allowing the cloak to cover the whole body.

When the white cloak blocked Dean's body, the dozen or so bullets fired just hit the cloak.

However, the bullet with strong penetrating power did not penetrate the cloak. On the contrary, the bullet seemed to hit some kind of extremely elastic object, and was bounced off immediately.

And the kinetic energy of these bullets seemed to dissipate suddenly, instead of being thrown out by the high-speed bullets, they landed less than two meters in front of Dean with a clanging sound.

And Kaito Kidd's white cloak was still as clean as new, not even a mark was left on it.

After blocking the bullet, Dean kept moving. With his right hand, he pulled the cloak back behind him, while his left hand flickered, and he made a gesture of shaking his hand in the direction of the dozen or so people who shot.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, more than a dozen playing cards flew out of Dean's hands, shooting at every gun on the opposite side with astonishing speed and force.

The flying trajectories of the playing cards are magical, as if they have a life of their own, and each playing card shoots down a gun with perfect precision.

"What! How is that possible?"

At this moment, all the people who witnessed the scene just opened their mouths in surprise, especially the dozen or so people who took the initiative to attack Kaitou Kidd.

If they hadn't experienced it personally, they would never believe that poker can be played with such great strength.

It's not a big deal that Kaito Kidd's cloak is bulletproof, after all, in this day and age, there are all kinds of thin and light materials that can be bulletproof.

The most shocking thing is Kaitou Kidd's inhuman reflexes and calm attitude, and he actually grabbed the cloak to block the bullet with his hand, and he was not injured.

It didn't matter if he wasn't injured, but he was able to use playing cards to knock out the guns in the hands of more than a dozen people at once.

Just play cards!

Who can do such a thing?
"Who fired the shot just now?"

On the other side, Gordon was so annoyed by the unexpected gunshot that his whole face was so gloomy that water could drip out.

Given that the art museum is a public place and there are still hundreds of citizens in the exhibition hall, Gordon had previously strictly required his subordinates to wait for orders before firing into the room.

He knew exactly what Gotham's police would do if left unchecked.

After seeing the other party's identity clearly, Gordon's complexion improved a little, but it was still ugly.

It turned out that the person who opened fire just now was not a member of the GCPD, but an armed security guard in the museum.

The security guards hired by the museum are not like the GCPD who listen to old Gordon's orders. They will shoot on the spot as soon as they see a threat.

Even if a manslaughter is caused in the end, the capital will come forward to settle it, at least that's what people told them.

Gordon is very dissatisfied with this, but he has no way or position to stop it, because on this land, the behavior of security guards is legal and compliant...

"We'll talk about the four of you leaving your post later. Now everyone is spreading out to both sides, forming an encirclement circle around Kaitou Kidd, and let the civilians retreat behind the encirclement circle!"

Gordon quickly calmed down and ordered to the surrounding guards.

While people were shocked by Kaito Kidd's performance, Dean's heart was not so good.

"Hiss—the hands are so numb! Why don't you just run away..."

Flicking the cloak to block the bullet, the backhand flying card counterattack looks very handsome and chic, but the price is that until now Dean's right hand is still numb.

Thanks to the system, his bulletproof cloak has the effect of absorbing kinetic energy to a certain extent. Otherwise, even if he could not be pierced by these dozens of bullets with ordinary bulletproof materials, Dean's hands would also be useless.

But even though most of the bullet's kinetic energy was absorbed, it still produced a strong sense of numbness when it was delivered to Dean's right hand, it felt like his elbow suddenly hit the table.

But, everything has two sides. If you pay the price, you will naturally gain something.

In the scene just now, the hundreds of tourists and guards in the field together provided more than 400 surprise points for Dean.

"I'm sorry, viewers, my opening remarks were interrupted by an unexpected situation just now. For this, I would like to offer my apology to everyone, please accept it."

Dean endured the numbness in his hands, kept a calm smile on his face from beginning to end, and bowed deeply to the crowd.

"Is he serious? I never thought a criminal would be so...polite. Oh my god, this is crazy."

Hundreds of civilians in the field looked at Kaitou Kidd who bowed and apologized, and their hearts were full of absurdity.

"Okay, I accept your apology, but that's after you go to jail."

At this time, an unfriendly voice sounded from the side.

As soon as the sound landed, Dean felt a sudden gust of wind from the side.

Before he could take a closer look at what it was, Dean's body leaned back reflexively.

Then a leg appeared in Dean's line of sight, passing just a few centimeters in front of the tip of his nose.

If Dean hadn't stepped back in time, the kick would have landed him in the face.

"Haven't you heard that you can't hit someone in the face? Robin, or should I call you Wonder Boy?"

Dean quickly pulled back a few positions, and said to the attacker without changing his face.

"I accept both of these, anyway, it sounds better than Phantom Thief Kid."

Robin withdrew his kicked right leg, staring at Kaitou Kidd looking for a flaw in his attack.

"Hey, I was going to finish my first performance well today, but I was forcibly interrupted by you several times, which made me very embarrassed."

Dean sighed, stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, and said with a distressed look.

"I usually don't like to chat with criminals before subduing them. Telling you these two sentences now is a serious violation of my rules."

Robin tilted his head and said, he was about to pounce on Dean immediately.

The distance between the two is only a few body positions, and they can get close to face to face in two or three steps at most.

However, just as Robin took the first step, he vaguely noticed that the corner of Dean's mouth was inexplicably hooked up a bit.

That appearance is like the sinister smile that is naturally revealed when the conspiracy succeeds.

Robin suddenly thought of Batman once said: "Don't underestimate any opponent, especially when they are quietly laughing."

Could it be that Kaitou Kidd was planning something and just waiting for him to approach?

Surprised, Robin's figure froze for a very brief moment.

After this meal, the corners of Dean's mouth rose more obviously.

"I'd love to have more fun with you, Batbird, but unfortunately—"

Dean stretched out his hand, and at some point there was a simple pocket watch in his hand.

The time shown on the watch is 21:35.

"Now it's time for the curtain call."
