Chapter 858 This is a monster. Please give me a monthly ticket o(〃'▽'〃)o
The "White Horse Detective" took a few steps forward, temporarily away from the smoke that was hissing out from the ground.
He played with the gas mask in his hand, looked at Inspector Nakamori, and said with a smile: "Inspector, I win this time."
Next to him, the live broadcast room was filled with comments because of this result. The reporters and other people at the scene were also stunned for a moment - they didn't expect Kidd to be caught.
After a second of silence, the reporter excitedly approached the "White Horse Detective". She didn't know what to say for a moment, and after a long pause, she finally managed to squeeze out a universal boilerplate sentence: "Excuse me, what do you think of catching Kidd?"
"Thoughts? Maybe it's that some things seem difficult, but when you actually do them, you'll find that..." The "White Horse Detective" raised a hand and gestured to her, "It's easy as pie."
As he spoke, he flipped his palm.
Several spherical smoke bombs appeared between his fingers.
The "White Horse Detective" suddenly threw the smoke bomb to the ground.
Black technology smoke rose up and covered most of the hall in an instant.
——This “White Horse Detective” is, of course, not the real thing, but Kidd in disguise.
Before, the doors and windows of the hall were tightly closed to prevent Kidd. At this time, the smoke bomb mixed with hypnotic gas quickly spread in the hall.
…
Kidd looked at the police who were in chaos, raised his hand and tore his face, threw away Bai Ma Tan's disguise and suit jacket in disgust, and instantly changed into Kid's white clothes and white cape.
Jiang Xia opened the cat vest, opened the top hat, and lowered his head to study it. However, he could not see how Kidd changed his clothes in an instant.
When Jiang Xia carefully sensed Kidd's magic power, comparing whether it had decreased, and began to wonder whether this was magic or sorcery.
Kidd dodged several roaring policemen who rushed over and jumped lightly onto the stone statue.
He squatted down, put a sturdy rope around the goddess statue, and pressed the button on the other end.
A balloon with great buoyancy inflated and expanded, carrying the goddess statue and Kidd who was standing on the stone statue, floating up and drifting slowly upwards.
...Originally, it should have been able to fly out of the window smoothly.
However, just half a meter off the ground, a loud metallic clang was heard from under the statue.
——A thick chain had appeared there at some point, firmly connecting the stone statue and the floor together.
Kidd was shaken by the sudden "brake". He looked down at the scene and was slightly stunned.
According to his prior investigation, there was no such hidden mechanism under the statue of the goddess. The statue was just placed there normally...
Jiang Xia was wearing a cat vest and straightened his hat which had been tilted by the shock. He noticed Kidd's doubts.
He patted Kidd's head and pointed toward the tunnel entrance.
Kidd looked over.
A brown head of hair appeared in the smoke.
——The White Horse Detective actually crawled out from underground without anyone noticing.
Just now, when Kidd pretended to be the White Horse Detective and said "We caught Kidd", several honest police officers did not doubt it too much. They subconsciously went to the secret entrance where the "White Horse Detective" came up, and prepared the tools and gas masks to climb down.
However, before they could use it, they were knocked unconscious by the smoke bombs that Kidd had thrown, which also contained hypnotic gas, and lay on the ground, with the gas masks in their hands falling off.
At this time, Bai Ma Tan had not yet reached the limit of holding his breath, and he had not inhaled too much hypnotic gas. Bai Ma Tan picked up the gas mask with confusion but surprise, and then actually used the props left by the police to climb up bravely.
…
In the exhibition hall.
Bai Ma Tan looked at the goddess statue suspended in the air but tied with iron chains, and showed a look of "I expected it a long time ago": "Give up - even if I can't catch you, don't even think about stealing the things in the trailer."
Kidd: “…”
Just now, when he was watching the live broadcast of the exhibition hall and grasping the internal situation, he was busy watching the dark cloud snow cat vs. Inspector Nakamori. Although he also found that the white horse detective was always wandering around, the scene was too chaotic and the police blocked the camera...
At this moment, Kidd remembered that during the live broadcast, the White Horse Detective had indeed approached the goddess statue several times - that annoying chain must have been secretly installed by this cunning detective.
Kidd sighed in his heart, and thought to himself, fortunately, his target was not the real statue...
Thinking of this, he no longer cared about the thick iron chain below, but reached out to the wrist of the stone statue.
——She was wearing a bracelet with a clear gem hanging on it.
This is Kidd's real goal.
However, after pulling it twice, I found that the bracelet was made of unknown material, but it was extremely hard.
Kidd sighed and turned to look out the window, trying to find an angle to see if he could catch the moonlight and make an on-site appraisal. Kidd's goal was to find the gemstone that contained "Pandora". To find "Pandora", he needed to point it at the moon.
But now, let’s not talk about the location of the windows in the exhibition hall—it was cloudy at this time. Kidd originally planned to take the gem back and slowly explore it, but now…
…
Just as I was thinking about it, someone suddenly stepped on my arm.
Kidd was startled, and when he looked down, he saw that the magical black cat that had just helped him did not seem to be affected by the hypnotic gas.
The cat walked towards the bracelet on the stone statue, looked closely for a moment, and suddenly waved its claws.
With a sharp "clang" sound, Kidd's hand holding the bracelet suddenly felt lighter - the resistance from the gem disappeared, and a thin piece of chain was suddenly cut by the cat's claws.
Kidd: “……?”
He recalled the rough estimate of the bracelet's hardness he had just made, and looked at the cat in front of him in shock... What were its claws made of?
Faced with curiosity and the unknown, Kidd was surprised and subconsciously reached out his hand to pinch it open to see.
The cat glanced back at him, its originally round claws suddenly turned into sharp blades, and a cold light flashed in its eyes. In addition to intimidation, there was also a hint of urging.
"..." Kidd silently withdrew his hand. Although he successfully saw the claws, he always felt that the cat was not satisfying his curiosity just now, but threatening him... He couldn't compare the hardness of alloy.
Kidd put the bracelet into his arms. Almost at the same time, the door was slammed open and a large number of police rushed in.
——Police from other areas received the signal sent by Inspector Nakamori just now, and are now rushing here to provide support.
Seeing the number of police officers increasing rapidly in the hall, Kidd did not stay any longer.
He took out the rope gun, raised his hand and nailed the rope hook to the window frame in the distance. He flew to the window, opened the tightly locked window in a few strokes, and prepared to leave in style.
At this time, Bai Ma Tan's voice came from behind: "Want to leave? Unfortunately, I have cut the rope you painted black and hid in the dead corner. I also helped you release the balloon of the same color hanging on it."
Kidd looked at the broken rope in his hand: "..."
The cat above his head sighed and patted his forehead in dissatisfaction like an overseer.
