Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 108: Magic was originally a scam

"You seem to have made a mistake, Chief."

Tony replied unwillingly, and saw him open the helmet of his suit so that the opponent could see his expression. Although Tony tried to speak in a polite tone, his face was full of disgust and arrogance.

"This is my place, what I am going to do is not your turn to direct."

Tony arrogantly said.

"On the contrary, you should do what I tell you to do."

"I hope you know what you are talking about."

George snorted coldly.

No matter how angry he is, for a super capitalist like Tony, the police really don't have much power to restrain him.

If Tony is upset, a big hat of "wasting taxpayers' money" will be deducted.

"Now there is no need for me to come out to deal with the thief Kidd, someone will deal with him."

Tony looked at the strange thief Kidd in the distance, his eyes deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Boom...boom...boom"

Suddenly, there was a new sound of footsteps in the sky.

The people who heard the footsteps were instantly astonished, because it was completely different from the footsteps of the Kaito Kidd!

If the footsteps of Kaito Kidd are crisp and sweet, steady and light step by step, then this new footstep can only be described as heavy.

"Why is there another footstep? Is it really from the sky?"

Someone in the audience asked hastily.

"It should be, I heard it clearly."

"That means, besides Kaito Kidd, there is another person walking in the sky?"

"Has anyone cracked Kidd's tricks?"

"How can this be!"

"Where is that person?"

Countless spectators began to look around, hoping to find a second person who could walk in the sky.

However, they saw nothing but darkness in the sky.

At this moment, a helicopter corresponding to the No. 7 plane suddenly turned on its searchlight. In an instant, the dazzling light illuminated a black figure below.

Batman!

The light absorption efficiency of the bat suit is very good, and it can be almost invisible in the dark, no wonder no one has spotted him.

Like everyone guessed, Batman's did indeed levitate in the sky, walking forward step by step.

Face to face with Kaito Kidd.

"This is Unit 12. Suspicious characters were found. Suspicious characters were found... Confirmed that it is Batman. Now we are continuing to follow up, it's over."

On the 12th plane, Alfred reported to George solemnly.

"Batman again! Why did he come to New York? Could it be that he had a holiday with Kaito Kidd?"

Hearing this, George frowned and suddenly dissatisfied.

"Regardless of the unknown past between them, Batman and Kaito Kidd are now among the most wanted criminals, and I must not let them go today!"

George ordered viciously.

"All helicopters, bring me closer to Kaito Kidd and Batman."

"The rest immediately emptied the street in front of the center exhibition hall and evacuated the crowd."

"Because there is an order prohibiting firing, we can only surround them, leaving no gaps, and not allowing them to fall to the ground!"

"I don't believe that Kaito Kidd can still get into the crowd with ease in the sky!"

After George's order was issued, his men responded in unison.

"Yes, sir!"

More and more helicopters are approaching here, and there are already many helicopters circling around Kai Pi Kidd, almost blocking every way of his retreat.

But the strange thing is that no matter how many helicopters gather, how much wind blows when the propeller wing rotates at high speed.

Kai thief Kidd didn't seem to be affected at all. The most amazing thing is that his cloak still retains its original appearance, not being blown by the wind!

Looking at Batman on the other side, his black cloak had already been blown and hunted.

"McGinson, what are you going to do now?"

Facing this scene, Charlie asked McGieson, one person and one dog communicated through specially made badges.

"Hey, don't worry, they can't catch us."

McGinson gave a smirk, apparently already having a plan.

"Batman, I did think that you might crack my aerial walk, but what I didn't expect is that you would perform exactly the same magic in front of me as me."

As the thief Kidd and Batman gradually approached, when they were only a few tens of meters apart, McGieson suddenly shouted at Batman, with a vaguely depressed tone in his tone.

"Before doing magic, you must never reveal what is about to happen; you cannot do the same magic twice to the same audience at the same time and place."

"The three famous Sarston principles, you committed two at once this time, the thief Kidd, maybe you think you are genius enough to be a special case, but as a true magician, you don’t seem to have learned it yet. ."

Batman's husky, magnetic low voice responded to Kaito Kidd.

"And I learned that you walk in the sky, just to prove to people that your aerial walk is not a miracle, as long as you have received a certain amount of training, in fact, anyone can do this."

"All the so-called'miracles' are actually nothing more than a scam."

Hearing this, the thief Kidd waved his hand.

"Wow, Batman, did you know that your current behavior is smashing other people's jobs?"

"You are a superhero, why are you going to study the Three Principles of Sarston? Well, I admit that I want to challenge the most authoritative three principles of magician. It is really arrogant."

"But I don't agree with you on one point."

Suddenly, Kidd's frivolous tone became serious.

"I never thought of using'miracle' as a gimmick to deceive the audience, and there is no ulterior conspiracy."

"Maybe magic itself is a scam, but in fact every audience knows it well, but why so many people still like magic? Because people who watch magic, they just like to be deceived."

Batman glanced at the strange thief Kidd who was not far in front of him in surprise, but he didn't expect him to say this.

However, I don't know it, but Batman discovered the clue when he saw it.

The two were too far apart just now, and many details were unclear. Now there are only less than 30 meters between each other. Naturally, Batman can find many details that he hadn't discovered before.

For example, the steel wire hoisted from Unit 7 doesn't seem to be hung on Kidd, the thief...

But the Kaito Kidd was indeed still walking, and step by step approaching Batman's position, the footsteps never stopped playing from the loudspeaker.

Could it be a dummy?

No, even the dummy must be dangled with a wire, and Batman already has a deep understanding of the Kidd dummy, he can be sure that the strange thief Kidd in front of him must not be a dummy.

unless……

"Afu, speed up and get closer to Unit 7, I'm going to confirm one thing."

Batman urged Alfred on the helicopter.
