Phantom Thief Kidd

Chapter 216 The Returning Dark Knight

"Thalia's gone."

Pamela looked at Barbara and said.

"While this was to be expected, it still surprised me that none of us noticed that she had left here."

Barbara nodded and said in admiration.

"She must have gone to the Knights Arena, after all, the nuclear bomb is still there."

"Wait, what are you talking about? What do you mean the nuclear bomb is still in the Knights Dome?"

Hearing the conversation between the two women, the Riddler became restless.

Isn't the nuclear bomb hidden in that truck by himself?

He looked incredulously at the van in the corner.

"Sure enough, it's exactly what Kidd said, you didn't know that you were cheated by Bain and the others."

Barbara pouted.

She thought the Riddler was as scary as the legend said.

As a result, I really saw it with my own eyes, but it looked more like a fool.

Pamela was not in the mood to talk to the Riddler, she walked directly to the back of the truck and opened the door.

I saw only one piece of cargo in the huge cargo hold.

A spherical mechanical object about [-] meters in diameter.

That is the fusion reactor made by Wayne, which Bain and others transformed into a nuclear bomb.

The weight of the reactor did not match its shape, and the total weight exceeded ten tons.

Bane attached great importance to this fake nuclear bomb, but from the outside, it was no different from a real reactor.

If you are not an expert who specializes in this stuff, it is almost impossible to see the difference.

With Pamela fully activated, dozens of vine-like plants sprang out from the ground, piercing the forged nuclear bomb.

Until then, the inside of the fake nuclear bomb was revealed to everyone.

"Bane..."

The Riddler's face twitched, he never thought that he would be deceived one day.

"Knock these people unconscious and send them to GCPD, we don't have much time."

Barbara didn't give the Riddler a chance to yell, and knocked him unconscious.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

"When did you become aware of our target?"

Bain looked at Kaitou Kidd in front of him, and asked the last question.

From what Magison said, it can be known that he had been planning to unite with the Penguin to fight against him very early on, and the black mask was just eliminated by the way.

So why did he think Penguin would help him?

Obviously, there is only one reason to convince Penguin.

That is the life and death of the city of Gotham.

Kidd knew early on that the Shadow Warrior Alliance didn't want to rule Gotham, but wanted to destroy it.

Bane knew very well that once their true purpose of destroying Gotham was revealed, the Penguin would be their biggest opponent.

Not to mention Black Mask and Gordon, they can only be hostile to each other.

The chances of them being successful are infinitely close to zero.

So Bane has been hiding his plans.

The countdown to fusion reactors advances unnoticed.

Logically speaking, it should be impossible for Kaito Kidd, who has never met, to know their plan.

And it's impossible for normal people to think about it.

Bain was very puzzled, how did Kidd see it.

"Is this question important?"

McKison asked.

He can't say that he saw it in a movie.

"...you're right, it doesn't matter at all, so... are you going to kill me here?"

After listening, Bain nodded as if he had figured it out, then looked around and asked.

"No, as you said just now, I almost never take the initiative to kill anyone unless I have to... At least, fighting you has nothing to do with me."

McKesson smiled slyly.

"I came here only to complete my prediction. As for you, there is someone who wants to teach you a lesson more than me."

"who's that person……"

Before Bain could finish his question, a sharp whistling sound came from the sky, interrupting his words.

Bain looked up with a feeling, and saw a strange black fighter plane landing towards where they were standing.

"That's a bat fighter!"

This kind of weird fighter, no one can design it except Batman.

"How is this possible, Bruce should still be in the 'prison' now, did he crawl out?"

Seeing this scene, Baine's heart was shocked. He could never have imagined that besides Thalia, there was actually another person in the world who could escape from there alone.

"Boom!"

A black shadow jumped off the Bat Fighter and hit the ground heavily.

It was Batman in the steel armor.

After Bruce disappeared, Alfred knew that the matter was not simple. He investigated all the information about Bane and learned that the prison was in the Middle East.

Although the specific latitude and longitude are unknown, there is a rough range anyway.

Then, he left the United States in a bat fighter and went to the Middle East to find Bruce.

"Bane!" "Phantom Thief Kidd!"

As soon as Batman landed, he saw two acquaintances in front of him.

"you……"

However, after saying hello, the first person Batman looked at was not Bane who broke his spine.

It was Maggison who was Kaitou Kidd.

"Lucius has already told me everything you've been doing in Gotham these days."

Batman said so.

"Thank you for everything you have done for this city."

Bruce had mixed feelings in his heart, and he had gone through untold hardships to climb out of the dark prison.

I don't know how many times it failed.

He spent many months in prison.

From waiting for the recovery of the spine at the beginning, to exercising desperately, and finally jumping on the final high platform and climbing out of the prison.

Originally, he thought that under Bain's plan, Gotham would gradually fall apart and fall into endless civil strife.

As a result, when Bruce was found by Alfred, they received a contact signal from Lucius.

Then I learned that Kaitou Kidd had released a notice to steal the nuclear bomb.

And after Kidd returned to Gotham, he helped GCPD to do various deeds.

Even Lucius was rescued by Kidd.

It seems that Kidd has carefully considered what he said to him...

Batman looked at Kidd with satisfaction.

The current Kidd, not to mention becoming Robin, will have no problem inheriting his mantle in the future.

Maggison: "..."

Hey, what kind of weird look is that?

The person who broke your spine is next to you, okay? Look at him!

Shouldn't you come up and fight Baine and avenge your death?

"Batman, I think it's most appropriate for you to solve Bane's problem, then I won't bother you."

Ignoring Batman's gratitude, McKesson dropped a smoke bomb after saying this and disappeared.

He's off to find the real nuke.

"I didn't expect you to survive there, Bruce."

Only then did Bain speak slowly.

He stares at Batman's face, as if he can see Bruce's face through the helmet.
