Phantom Thief Kidd in the Comic World

Chapter 175: Insider (two chapters in one)

"Batman, he's back?"

Everyone present was shocked when they saw the batarang in Gordon's hand.

However, no one noticed at this time that besides shock, there were also other emotions hidden on Blake's face...

"Dad, have you met Batman?"

Barbara asked eagerly.

Gordon nodded.

"What did you say?"

"The time just now was too short. He only told me that he had found the location of the fusion reactor and that it was heavily fortified."

"He hopes we can help him hold off Baine's army."

Gordon repeated what Batman had said to him a few minutes ago.

"And tonight at twelve o'clock is when he is going to take action, so I decided to immediately summon everyone in the GCPD's underground network."

"Blake, you are the only one of us who is most familiar with the underground network because you are the one who is out there most often."

At this time, Gordon turned his attention to Blake.

"So, the task of gathering everyone together is left to..."

"Wait a minute, how can we be sure that the one who came just now must be Batman? Maybe it's just Bane's conspiracy to try to catch us all."

Blake demurred.

He always felt that this incident was too coincidental, and Batman shouldn't have appeared at this time...

"I'm pretty sure that's Batman. No one in this world understands Batman better than me."

After hearing Blake's objection, Gordon immediately looked at him with approval.

"However, if you can consider this possibility, it means that you already have the ability to become an excellent police officer, Blake."

Gordon concluded that what he saw must be Batman himself.

Because there are many details on Batman that others cannot notice, but he can clearly notice them.

And he is confident that he is the only one in the world who can notice these unknown details...

If you don't count Alfred.

"Dad, can Pamela and I also participate in the operation?"

Barbara asked Gordon excitedly.

"You two take care of this place for me, and you are not allowed to go anywhere!"

Gordon's expression darkened, he glared at Barbara and said.

"Jim, your body can't support the battle ahead."

At this time, Aaron suddenly said to Gordon with a serious face.

"What do you mean, Aaron? Do you want me to watch you fight for your life and do nothing?"

Gordon became emotional.

"The city of Gotham has entrusted everything to me, and I must participate in the operation to save her!"

"No, Jim, your body can't force it."

Aaron's attitude did not change at all, "The fusion reactor is now a nuclear bomb. We must gather the strongest combat power to be effective. Jim, you have now lost your due combat effectiveness."

"Listen to me, don't force yourself, just wait for our good news from behind."

"I know my body very well. If I want, I can knock down any of you at any time."

Gordon said this sentence sincerely, and a strange aura emanated from him.

Although Gordon is now pale and needs to hold on to the wall to stay standing, for some reason, when he says these words, he can convince others from the bottom of his heart.

"No, you can't."

"No, I can."

"Your body can't handle it."

"I can handle it."

So, under the surprised eyes of everyone, the two actually started to bicker.

"You can't stand it."

"It's worth it."

"You can't stand it!!!"

Aaron had completely forgotten Gordon's identity as director at this time, and he was just Gordon's subordinate. Now he is just an old comrade who lived and died with Gordon.

Aaron grabbed Gordon's collar and said, "I won't let you be stupid!"

"Oh, no! Uncle Cash, don't be impulsive!"

Everyone quickly went up to pull Aaron and Gordon away.

Unexpectedly, the reaction force generated when the two separated caused Gordon to lose his balance instantly, falling backward and pulling Blake away from him.

"Um?"

When Gordon fell on top of Blake, Blake felt a strange bulge in the inner pocket of his clothes near his left chest.

Blake remained calm and slowly helped Gordon up.

"Aaron, I know what you're thinking, but I have to go."

Gordon suddenly calmed down.

"I am the chief of the GCPD. When everyone is fighting, I must be at the forefront."

"There is no reason, this is my responsibility!"

"But your body..."

Aaron's words stopped abruptly.

Because he saw Gordon take out a syringe from his arms.

"Stimulants! Jim you..."

Everyone looked at Gordon in shock.

Everyone present knew more or less about illegal drugs.

They all could see that the stimulants in Gordon's hands were not the ones usually taken by suspended athletes.

But the drugs that were previously seized from Scarecrow!

The effect is several times stronger than ordinary stimulants, and the side effects are also several times stronger.

"I know it's a banned substance, but these are special times and it's the only thing that can help me regain my normal mobility."

Gordon said nonchalantly.

Nowadays, as long as you can win, using illegal drugs is just a trivial matter.

Seeing this, Aaron said nothing more. Gordon's realization made him secretly shocked.

"No need to persuade me anymore, everyone obeys my orders now!"

Gordon's momentum changed and he shouted loudly.

"Blake, Aaron, you go and gather everyone separately. Be sure to bring everyone to Midtown Island before twelve o'clock in the evening. That's the place Batman told me!"

"The situation is urgent. There is no need to hide anymore. Bring all the weapons and forcefully attack Zhongcheng Island!"

"As for me, I will go to Midtown Island to meet Batman first."

At this point, Gordon looked at Blake.

"After all, Blake's idea is not completely impossible. If that is not the real Batman, I will notify you to evacuate as soon as possible."

Gordon's attitude was very firm when he gave the order, and everyone believed that he was not joking.

"Yes, sir!"

Blake and Aaron saluted Gordon simultaneously.

Gordon shot back.

"Barbara and your companion, hide here. There is an emergency escape route behind. If Bain attacks here while we are away, you can escape from there."

"But remember, never leave here voluntarily, because Gotham will be very dangerous soon."

Gordon warned Barbara and the two women.

"Uh-huh."

Pamela didn't say a word from beginning to end, and no one really paid attention to her.

On the contrary, it was Barbara who actually nodded obediently at this moment.

Seeing that Barbara was so sensible, Gordon nodded with satisfaction and stopped admonishing her.

"Hey, Barbara, since when have you been so obedient?"

Pamela asked Barbara quietly.

"Shh!"

Barbara motioned her not to say anything and signaled her with her eyes.

"Nod your head first and then talk about it. After they leave, we can do whatever we want."

Pamela smiled inwardly, "As expected of you, Barbara."

On the other side, on a deserted, remote road, McGison drove a black SUV quickly past.

It had been several hours since he left the clock tower, and it was already dark.

Magison wasn't alone in the car.

Sitting in the passenger seat of this SUV was a man who covered his face with a bandage to prevent others from seeing his true face.

"is this okay?"

Magison asked suddenly, his head motionless and his gaze always kept forward.

"No problem. Since they ignored you, that means our plan will definitely succeed."

The rich voice of the masked man came from the side, with a bit of regret and emotion in his tone.

"Kidd, I never thought that one day you would be the key to saving Gotham."

"Ha, there are many things you can't think of."

The corner of McGison's mouth curled up slightly.

"No, you know what I just asked was not about the plan, but that you want me to pretend to be that person. Is this really okay? Although I don't mind disguising myself as anyone."

"But that person should have an extraordinary status in your heart."

Hearing this, the masked man was shocked, but he did not speak.

After a long time, he spoke again: "I didn't know that he would go to Bain, let alone that he knew the danger of Bain a long time ago. Otherwise, I would definitely try my best to prevent him from acting alone, at least I will choose to fight alongside him..."

"I feel extremely guilty and remorseful about this incident."

"But at the same time, I deeply understand one thing, that is, for him, for Batman, protecting Gotham, a fragile city, is the meaning of his life."

Magison didn't interrupt, just listened.

"He once told me that anyone can be Batman, and so can you. There's nothing I can't accept."

The masked man said so.

Magison smiled politely, but there was a hundred thousand rejections in his heart.

It's okay to pretend to be Batman once in a while, but if he really wants to wear that cape, forget it.

Becoming a superhero or something is impossible in this life!

"Have you never thought about what if Batman comes back? If I go up and pretend to be him, won't he become angry?"

McGison said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"That would be better for our plan, wouldn't it?"

The masked man asked rhetorically.

"Hahaha, that's right."

Magison thought of something happy and laughed.

"It's getting late, we have to hurry up."

McGison stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the car quickly reached full speed.

"I don't usually use transportation very much. I rarely held the steering wheel today, and I feel pretty good."

"Can't you drive slower? It's easy to get into an accident if you drive too fast!"

"I know, I know, don't worry, sir, we'll be arriving soon."

I saw Magison driving the SUV onto a bridge, driving farther and farther under the night...

The perspective returned to Barbara.

"Barbara, they have all left, are we..."

"Let's go!"

Pamela quickly walked around the temporary base in the tunnel, and there were only two of them left here.

She believed that Barbara was definitely not an obedient baby. If Barbara was willing to miss the course of action proposed by Batman, she would be damned.

Unexpectedly, before Pamela could finish speaking, Barbara interrupted her directly.

"We can't stay here!"

I saw Barbara running towards the emergency escape route without looking back.

"So anxious?"

Pamela chased after him in confusion.

"Barbara, that's the emergency escape route. Now Bain's people haven't broken in. Why are we running there?"

Hearing this, Barbara, who had already run halfway, suddenly stopped moving forward.

"wrong!"

"Why is it wrong again?"

Pamela's mouth twitched.

"You can't take the emergency escape route."

Barbara said to herself.

"Hey, Barbara, what the hell are you doing!"

Pamela shouted, which brought Barbara back to her senses instantly.

"What's wrong, Pamela?"

"You're still asking me what's wrong? It's more like I'm asking you what's wrong!"

Pamela put her hands on her hips and hummed.

"Why did you want to leave in such a hurry just now? Why did you take the emergency escape route? Why did you suddenly stop halfway?"

"Pamela, didn't you notice?"

Barbara did not respond directly to Pamela's question, but asked a rhetorical question.

"Perceive what?"

Pamela still didn't understand what Barbara meant.

"You haven't had much contact with the members of the GCPD, so it's normal that you didn't notice any abnormalities. But I'm different from you. I've been in contact with them almost every day since I was a child, so I'm very familiar with each of them."

"Pamela, I hope you won't be surprised by what I'm going to say next."

Barbara said to Pamela seriously.

Pamela said she was mentally prepared.

"I suspect that a mole has infiltrated the GCPD... No, it's not a suspicion, I'm sure of it!"

"Just among the group of people just now, there was someone who was not a real member of the GCPD!"

Barbara said in shock.

"What did you say!"

Pamela covered her mouth.

"You heard me right, so I guess the emergency exit is likely to be tampered with, and as long as we go there, we will fall into a trap."

Barbara said cautiously.

"So that's why you had to leave here as soon as they left."

Pamela suddenly realized.

"It's not too late, we have to get out of here as soon as possible."

The two women said no more and ran towards the front passage again.

But unfortunately, they were still a step too late.

"Ta-ta-ta...ta-ta-ta...ta-ta-ta..."

After running for a while, the two women heard bursts of rapid footsteps.

The sounds are disorganized and numerous.

"somebody is coming!"

Barbara and Pamela looked at each other and saw the same message.

Fortunately, there are many abandoned passages here, and they can find hiding places anytime and anywhere.

They immediately got into the abandoned passage pipe next to it.

"Sure enough, these people are all gun-toting thugs."

Barbara observed the situation through the small mirror she carried with her and said.

"Do you want me to just..."

Pamela made a neck-slitting gesture towards Barbara.

These people are just ordinary thugs, not as perverted as Deadshot or Deathstroke.

With Pamela's ability, it would not be difficult to kill everyone in the arena in one go.

"No, we can't do this."

Barbara shook her head.
