Chapter 857: Peak of Martial Arts
Bai Ma Tan calculated the next developments in his mind and smiled as if everything was under control.
At the same time, on the other side, Kidd also discovered the current situation of the two:
The speed is the same, but the white horse is closer.
It seems that Bai Ma Tan will indeed get the mask first.
but……
Kidd also smiled in his heart. He raised his hand and pressed the white hat on his head: Oh, naive detective. When it comes to robbing things, it's not that whoever gets there first gets it...
He suddenly let his hat spin and fly out, intending to let the hat lie across the white horse's body to block his movement to grab the gas mask.
However, at this moment, when Kidd was diving through that section of the pipe, he suddenly heard the sound of flapping wings.
The movement was approaching rapidly - Watson, who had been left in another room, unexpectedly flew over with superior intelligence, dived, knocked Kidd's hat off, then proudly turned around and dived back to the "battlefield" where the gas mask was.
The three parties approached the gas mask at the same time.
But before their hands or claws touched the mask.
A black shadow suddenly fell from the sky and landed precisely next to the gas mask.
Kidd and Bai Matan were startled and looked carefully, and found that there was a cat there that appeared out of nowhere.
The Cloud Snowcat gracefully raised one foot and stepped on the mask.
Then he pushed it like a sled and it slid more than a meter.
Two hands stretched out, grabbed the spot where the cat was just now, and missed at the same time.
An angry eagle's cry was heard nearby. Watson flapped his wings, passed between the two people, and chased after the black cat that he had been staring at for a long time.
The black cat with white claws also turned its head to look at it. Its eyes fell on Watson's feathery wings, and a strange light flashed in its round cat eyes.
The moment Watson swooped down, the cat suddenly kicked off the ground and pounced nimbly.
At the same time, the cat stepped on the gas mask on the ground and slid to the side along the smooth marble floor.
Kidd subconsciously reached out his hand and pressed it.
Kidd: “…”
He looked at the gas mask that was delivered to his door, and without much hesitation, he picked it up and put it on - the gas was spreading rapidly, and after the scramble for the mask just now, the alarm equipment must have been triggered, and the police would arrive soon.
In this case, Kidd rationally realized that this gas mask could help him maintain the necessary mobility. And now, although he didn't quite understand what happened... he had to thank the cat first, even though it might be unintentional.
While putting on the mask, Kidd looked up at the battlefield where Cat and Hawk were.
Originally, he thought that maybe he could do the cat a favor and repay the favor he just owed the cat.
However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the way the cat fought was actually very different from that of an ordinary cat - the cat did not stretch out its claws to scratch randomly, but instead acted like a simple and unpretentious martial arts master, with a strange body shape. It only used one claw throughout the whole process, accurately hitting the eagle's neck.
The fight happened in a flash.
The cat landed gracefully against the misty hypnotic gas background and flicked its tail.
The eagle, with its back to it, fell to the ground in a panic, flapped its wings twice, and was unable to get up again.
Kidd: “…”
This cat...
Quite handsome?
…
Jiang Xia knocked the eagle unconscious with one blow, walked slowly to its side, and stepped on Watson's outstretched wings with his claws.
Then I lay down on it skillfully and tried the feeling of lying down.
After a moment, Jiang Xia was slightly disappointed to find that the real eagle's wings were not as fluffy as the Mist Tengu's. The feathers even pricked the chin a little. It was probably just that Watson's color was lighter, and it looked like a warm peanut color, which gave people the illusion that it was easy to lie on.
After figuring out this thing that has been bothering me for a long time.
Jiang Xia lost interest in this defeated eagle.
He was about to get up and leave, but before he could get up, a figure suddenly appeared behind him.
——Kid picked up the cat from behind, put it in his hat, and then shot the rope gun at the ceiling and left quickly. The whole set of movements was as smooth as flowing water, worthy of the magician's hand speed.
…
Just now, Kidd saw the cat walk to the eagle and suddenly fall down. Then he looked at the white horse detective who was covering his mouth and nose, thinking that the cat had inhaled the hypnotic gas released by the unscrupulous detective - although it defeated the eagle, it was ambushed by the cunning human.
So when Kidd left, he took the cat into his hat and took it away - just now, when the live broadcast was going on in the exhibition hall upstairs, Kidd was hiding in the pipe to watch it. He originally intended to find out what was going on in the exhibition hall, but he happened to see the white-clawed black cat teasing the police.
Now, this cat has beaten the detective's eagle and helped him get the mask... Kid is worried that if he keeps the cat, it may be retaliated by Uncle Nakamori and Detective Hakuba and be captured and sterilized.
Kidd used to use top hats to hold pigeons, which provided a comfortable and breathable space inside.
He installed the cat and recalled what had just happened, feeling a little surprised - when the cat jumped, according to the direction it needed to pounce, the mask would not slide towards him, but would instead slide towards Bai Ma Tan.
In other words, rather than being a stroke of luck, the mask seemed more like something the cat had pushed over on purpose.
Kidd: “……?” Could it be that just now, because he had been with Jiang Xia for a while, he had been exposed to some of her aura that attracted small animals?
Think about how the ferocious black panther licked Jiang Xia just now... Kidd thought that Jiang Xia's aura was so strong, and it was normal that the aura he got from him allowed him to successfully gain the friendship of the cat.
Thinking of this, Kidd couldn't help but look at the fainted Watson with confusion.
——As for aura, this eagle doesn’t look very friendly.
But after all, it has followed the white horse for a long time, so perhaps it will miss the old times.
And if you think about it carefully, Watson was just trying to hit the cat, and didn't hit the thief next to it... Maybe the eagle has also been infected by the aura and betrayed, but the powerful cat didn't give it the opportunity to show it?
…
Upstairs, in the target exhibition hall where the stone statue of the goddess is stored.
The bright gem on the wrist of the stone statue refracted a dazzling light under the light. However, at this moment, the policemen nearby had no time to appreciate it.
Inspector Nakamori received the news that "someone invaded the exhibition hall downstairs" and hurriedly mobilized his subordinates to go and check it out.
However, before leaving the exhibition hall.
Next to the goddess statue, the hidden mechanism in the ground was triggered.
The floor suddenly opened up with a snap.
Hypnotic gas gushed out from below like a spring. At the same time, under the vigilant gaze of everyone in the hall, a figure emerged from there.
Inspector Nakamori looked closely and saw the figure of Detective Hakuba.
The man smiled confidently and spoke in the voice of Hakuba Detective: "Inspector, I caught Kidd."
The other police officers also recognized this extraordinary second-generation police officer. The capture nets, tranquilizer guns and other things in their hands all stopped, and they looked at the floor next to the "White Horse Detective" in shock and curiosity.
