Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 191: Finally exposed

  In a dark tunnel without any lights, Lucius walked slowly behind Miranda.

  He can only recognize a person leading himself through a little body outline.

  Even though Lucius has served as the CEO of Wayne Enterprises for more than ten years, he never knew that this secret road was hidden in the Wayne Building.

  The same applies to the previous dungeons.

  At this time, he had followed Miranda for twenty minutes, but the exit still did not appear in sight.

  To be sure, this secret road shows an upward trend, which shows that they are going upward.

  In Lucius’s memory, Wayne Building should not have a structure that can accommodate such a long dense road.

  It is possible to walk straight through a short secret road, but a sloping secret road like this will take up a lot of volume, and it is absolutely impossible to build in the main body of the Wayne Building.

  Even underground is unlikely, because many of Wayne’s large underground laboratories were supervised by Lucius himself. It can be said that even Bruce may not know the Wayne Building better than him.

  Have you been imprisoned outside the Wayne Building?

  But Miranda would come to interrogate Lucius every day, and her duty was to take care of the Wayne Building. It was impossible to come to the dungeon every day at the risk of being attacked by someone at the weapon storehouse.

  "I guess, you must be thinking, how could there be such a secret passage in Wayne Building, right."

  Suddenly, a strange man's voice came from the front.

  The source of the sound is Miranda in front of him.

  No, it should be called Kaito Kidd.

  Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, Lucius was taken aback.

   "You are right, the foundation of Wayne Building is very solid, and it is difficult for people to do tricks under it."

  "But the premise is...the people who do the hands and feet are not outsiders."

   McGyson explained.

  "When Miranda forged identity information and became a member of the board of directors of Wayne Enterprises, she had already planned everything for today."

   Hearing the words, Lucius frowned, and was about to speak when McGieson’s post-remark interrupted him.

   “Don’t think that you can really grasp every move of every member of the board of directors. For example, Daggett suddenly showed his ambition and began to embezzle the Wayne family’s property. Didn’t you completely unexpected it in advance?”

   "In fact, I have been aware of Daggett's thoughts many years ago, but with his ability, he can't do much, so I didn't take him to heart at the beginning."

   "As a result, you didn't expect that it was Daggett who attracted Bain."

   McGyson shook his head, Lucius’s judgment was actually correct, and Daggett himself really didn’t have much abilities.

  But he didn't know where he got the channel to contact Bain.

  Since several years ago, Dagett has secretly cooperated with Bain, of course, only to provide funds for Miranda's charity, but even Dagett has been kept in the dark.

  From beginning to end, Miranda hides behind the scenes, pushing Bain to the front of the stage.

  Lucius was silent. Before that, who would have thought that Bain and others were so powerful.

   "So the truth has always been in your heart, Mr. Fox, the dungeon you are in is actually not within the confines of the Wayne Building, but underground two kilometers west of it."

   "Miranda Tate used your trust and has been secretly building this secret path for several years, but you have no idea."

   "Without Batman, your vigilance is too weak."

  "What do you know?"

  Lucius was shocked, but the thief Kidd knew the connection between himself and Batman.

  "I know what I should know, and I know more or less what I should not know."

   McGyson smiled slyly.

   "What I can tell you is that this secret road is the bridge between the dungeon and the Wayne Building."

  Speaking of this, McGieson stopped, and Lucius also paused.

  "Welcome back to Wayne Building, Mr. Fox."

  I saw McGieson open a door in the dark, and a strong light shone on the two of them.

  At this time, Lucius really saw the appearance of the person in front of him.

  I don’t know when, Miranda’s disguise has been removed by the thief Kidd, replaced by the white dress that always appears in the news.

   "Wow, it seems that our welcome ceremony is a bit too grand."

   McGyson stretched out his hand to slightly block the glare, his eyes gradually became serious.

  He couldn't be more familiar with this kind of glare.

  Searchlight!

  God knows why these Yankees like to use this thing so much. Even if the police like to use it, the agents like to use it. Now even the gangsters are starting to use it.

  Don’t you feel dazzling?

  In addition to the searchlight, McGyson also faintly heard countless footsteps and the sound of bullets being loaded.

  There seems to be the sound of the propeller of a gunship...

  It’s really fast.

   "Mr. Fox, I think we are in trouble."

   McGieson spread his hands and looked back at Lucius.

   "Why is it exposed so quickly, didn't you tie Miranda?"

   Lucius asked strangely.

   "For a Kagemusha, it is not difficult to break free."

  McGieson replied while listening to the voices around him.

   "Tap tack tack!"

  However, before he listened for a few seconds, fire tongues poured out.

  The scene was immediately covered by a rain of bullets.

   McGieson has quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly closes the door of the secret road.

  The bullet hit the thick steel plate door, making a noisy noise.

   "This door won't last long."

  Lucius took a few glances and concluded that he still has this vision.

   "I still can't figure out how we exposed. You have already gained the trust of the Kagemusha. They shouldn't believe Miranda's words."

   "Well..."

   McGyson scratched his face, took out the radio walkie-talkie and said, "Actually, this is not Miranda's walkie-talkie in my hand."

"At that time, I did a little trick to shield the intercom in Miranda's hand, and then when she pressed the button, I also pressed the button. This caused the intercom in Miranda's hand to talk to only one person. Illusion."

   Hearing this, Lucius couldn't help laughing.

   "Kid, the thief, you are really smart."

   "We are about to die here, you can still laugh?"

   McGyson has no good air.

   "I believe you must have a way to get out of your body."

  Lucius is very self-confident.

   "Boom!"

   Suddenly a loud noise came, and the secret path began to vibrate violently.

  "They started using rockets!"

  Lucius’ eyes narrowed, "Kid the thief, I don’t know what you can do to get us out of our current predicament, but it’s better to start now."

   "This door can only hold three rockets at most."

  As soon as the voice fell, another loud noise came, and the steel plate door had undergone serious deformation.

   "It seems we have no time."
