Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 164 No matter what the request is, I have only one answer (the first play!)

"Have you figured it out?"

Maggison's words surprised everyone present.

How long has it been, 5 minutes?

Or 3 minute?
In such a short period of time, this man named Lupine III solved the riddle that puzzled GCPD for several days?

Blake's mouth fell open in shock.

"Have you solved all the mysteries?"

Gordon looked at Maggison expectantly and asked.

"To be exact, I've only solved two of them now. I just have a little guess about the last riddle, and I'm not sure yet."

Maggison shrugged.

"Which two?"

Aaron asked impatiently.

"There's no need to say it now."

McKesson flatly rejected Aaron's offer.

"Since you have already solved the mystery, why hide it from us?"

Hearing this, Aaron's face immediately sank.

"Don't forget, without us, you wouldn't even see the riddle!"

"Could it be that you didn't untie anything, just pretending?"

"Or, is this the way you act in S.H.I.E.L.D. You can use others casually in order to complete your own tasks, and discard them like garbage after using them?"

Upon hearing Aaron speak to Magison like this.

Pamela was not happy at the time.

"Watch your words, Officer Cash!"

Only Pamela sternly said.

"It's not your turn to teach SHIELD how to do things!"

"Since I knew Lupine, he never said something that he was not sure of. Since Lupine said he solved it, he must be right!"

"The reason why I didn't tell you is naturally our consideration."

Pamela's reaction surprised McKesson.

"Don't be so excited."

McKesson stops Pamela.

"It's just a small misunderstanding."

I saw him straightening his clothes and facing Gordon calmly.

From the beginning to the end, among the remnants of the GCPD, only Gordon was the one who could be regarded by McKesson.

Blake may have his unique aptitude, and he will become Batman's assistant Robin in the future, but it seems that it is still far away...

Wait, Robin!
Thinking of this, Maggison smiled unknown.

Didn't Batman always want to be Robin himself?
Every time you act, you come to mess around, it is simply a big trouble that you can't get rid of.

Since Bruce wants to accept apprentices so much, then give him a Robin...

But there is no need to rush this matter now.

"The Riddler left three riddles, and the answers to each riddle are unrelated to each other, but there is only one nuclear bomb."

"Isn't the answer obvious? Only by solving three riddles at the same time can we really find the location of the nuclear bomb. The premise is that the riddle is indeed telling where the nuclear bomb is hidden."

"It's useless for me to tell you two answers to the riddle now."

McKesson's words are so reasonable that it is impossible to refute them.

"So, Mr. Gordon, we are very grateful for the clues provided by GCPD, but I hope that the next thing will be left to me and Fujiko to complete, and you should try to reduce the frequency of activities outside."

After hearing this sentence, Gordon's heart was shocked, and he looked at Maggison as if he had figured out something in an instant.

"Why? Although there are not many people left, we can help a lot."

"It's because of this that we don't need your help anymore. Too many people will only hinder our secret operations. I'm sorry to say this, but it is the truth."

Maggison said bluntly.

"……I understand."

Gordon was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Rookie, send the two agents out."

"no need."

Again McKesson declined.

"I just need a road map of the underground passage. The operations of S.H.I.E.L.D. are all top secret. I don't want any possibility of my whereabouts being leaked, and you have more important things to do, don't you?"

"Mr. Gordon, you'd better find your own daughter first."

"Bane is strong, but not invincible. We will not let Gotham disappear."

"Can I trust you?"

Gordon asked suddenly.

"of course."

McKesson smiled back.

"Okay, I'll give you the road map."

Naturally, it was Aaron who took the picture.

After receiving the road map from Aaron, Maggison called Pamela to leave together.

Gordon looked at the backs of the two in a daze...

Return to the ground smoothly through the road map.

The two quickly found a hidden location and took off their disguise.

Mainly Pamela, Maggison can't change into Kaitou Kidd's costume yet.

After all, white clothes are too conspicuous at night, which is not conducive to their actions.

After taking off the disguise, Maggison walked in a certain direction without saying a word, and Pamela followed closely behind.

"Maggison, I've been feeling something is wrong since just now."

Pamela asked, frowning.

"It always feels like something is missing."

"Oh, you mean Charlie."

Maggison replied nonchalantly without looking back.

"Yeah, Charlie's gone!"

Pamela exclaimed.

"I remember it was still following us when we entered the sewer, why did it suddenly disappear?"

"Don't worry, I just let it play by itself."

McKesson smiled mysteriously.

"Don't worry, it will come back by itself."

In fact, Charlie didn't enter Gordon's base at all. When Magison and others arrived at the subway tunnel, he asked Charlie to perform another mission.

After all, all eggs cannot be put in one basket.

It's better to have two plans than one.

Getting the Riddler's riddle is an added bonus, but it's also quite a hassle.

Based on Maggison's understanding of the Riddler, this guy is very difficult to deal with. The riddles given are not only difficult to solve in the usual sense, but what's more troublesome is that it is likely to be a ring within a ring, one riddle within another riddle.

It's boring and tedious.

"Pamela."

After walking for a while, Maggison asked abruptly.

"Ok?"

"How far can you control plants to travel quickly underground?"

Pamela thought for a moment, then replied.

"It's about 15 kilometers away, and it takes about [-] minutes."

That is 120 kilometers per hour, which is already very fast.

"The distance from here to the old city is about 35 kilometers, Pamela, can I trouble you to take me to the old city?"

Maggison calculated the distance and asked.

Unexpectedly, Pamela burst out laughing directly.

"Why do you ask such a question?"

Pamela stood on tiptoe and whispered softly into Magison's ear.

"There is nothing troublesome, no matter what you want to ask, I have only one answer, and that is-OK."

Maggison's heart was beating wildly, and he suddenly felt that the current atmosphere was a little delicate.
