First letter of the strange thief

"On the night of the full moon, with the curtain of the setting sun, I will take the Stone of Destiny under the light of the first ray of moonlight.

-With Love, Kidd the thief"

GCPD, Gotham City Police Headquarters, received an odd letter today.

To be more precise, a notice letter.

The letter paper is of high quality and feels hard when touched. It looks like a piece of cardboard but is much thinner than that. The text on the letter is printed, so it is impossible to tell by the handwriting who wrote it.

In the lower right corner of the text, a cartoon head is drawn, wearing a top hat and a monocle.

The stone of destiny is another name for sapphires, and they're one of the most precious gems in the world.

Coincidentally, just three days later, the Gotham City Exhibition Hall will display the world's largest sapphire-Adam's Star!

Valued at 170 million US dollars.

And that day happened to be the full moon day.

Judging from the content of the notice, there is probably a thief who saw Adam Star, planned to steal it on the day when the gem was on display, and has sent a notice to the police station...

Joke!

There is no thief in this world who will notify the police before the theft, unless it is a neurotic.

Therefore, this notice did not attract the attention of the police, except for one person...

Jim Gordon, Chief of the Gotham Police Department.

The Adam's Star is a national gemstone, and the security work is solely on the shoulders of the GCPD. Originally it was planned to dispatch more than 100 police officers.

However, after receiving the notice, Gordon immediately deployed nearly one-tenth of the police force in Gotham City to protect the Adam's Star.

"Commissioner, Isn't this manpower too much just for the exhibition hall?"

Aaron Cash walked into Gordon's office.

He first discovered the notice letter and reported it to Gordon, but he himself dismissed the notice letter completely.

"Aaron, don't you think these years have been too peaceful?"

Gordon's eyes were deep, as if thinking of the past.

"Oh my God, why do you want me to think of those weird guys from before, Commissioner? Obviously they have been jailed by..."

"Don't say that name, he is no longer here!"

"Okay Chief, I won't tell you. But what I have to say is that Gotham has changed since what happened eight years ago. It is no longer the city of sin from before."

Aaron meant to point.

"I know, but... this notice makes me feel uneasy."

"Do you think this might be another lunatic?"

"Aaron, you have experienced those things with me. You should understand that this city has never lacked lunatics...regardless of how many years it has been calm."

In this prosperous but sinful city, no matter how glamorous the tall buildings are, there will always be a dirty and dark alley behind them, even GCPD is no exception to this rule.

In the dark alley behind the Gotham Police Station, McGieson Feng walked out of it.

McGieson is an Asian young man whose parents died early. He is 20 years old this year and is a second-year student at Gotham University.

And the upcoming Kaito Kidd.

That's right, he's the one who sent the notice to GCPD not long ago.

"The other traversers have all kinds of golden fingers, so why do I only have this Thief System?"

Leaving the police station, McGieson thought depressed as he walked towards his house.

Since crossing the world ten years ago, he was shocked to discover that this place was called Gotham, and there was a super rich man surnamed Wayne.

When he thought this was the DC universe, he saw a report that the legendary inventor Tony Stark slept again with the cover girl...

Jesus christ, DC is dangerous enough, do you have to add Marvel as well?

Thanos and Darkside dancing together?

Infinite Gloves VS Anti-Life Formula?

I had the idea of restarting and going to the next life!

"If there is only Marvel, I can still bet on the other half, but the Anti-Life Formula really leaves no place to hide."

After years of observation, McGieson has determined that the world he is in is dominated by the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which has entered part of the DC Cinematic Universe. For example, there is Gotham but no Metropolis, which means that there is only Batman and no Superman.

As for how many other DC heroes may still be hidden, McGieson is not sure.

In terms of timeline, Gotham here should be before the start of the Nolan version of The Dark Knight Rises plot, while in New York, Stark just announced that he is Iron Man.

The Battle of New York will have far-reaching effects, but it has little to do with Gotham. It won't be until the time of Ultron Era that there might be some affects on Gotham.

So McGieson still has a long time to develop.

Whenever thinking of how dangerous this world is, McGieson laments that he is probably the poorest traverser in history.

Various kinds of ninjutsu system, immortal body, Kryptonian bloodline, supernatural magic are the golden fingers of other traversers but he...

*sigh*, I can only blame the thief system!

I admit that the thief is very handsome and pretending, but what can he do in this world?

What's even more frightening is that this system has no other functions except for a beginner's package, which contains the Kaito Kidd's Skills Encyclopedia and the Item Making Manual.

There is no explanation and no one-click mastery.

I can only rely on my own hard work!

It took a full ten years to master all of Kidd's skills, not to mention very normal thief skills, I can easily demonstrate most of original Kaito Kidd's magical skills.

In line with the principle of not wasting one's own ability, McGieson decided to be bold, and perhaps only when he truly became a thief, will the system be fully activated.

Anyway, the past few years have been a rare peaceful period for Gotham. The Scarecrow and other super criminals were all arrested, and Batman had retired.

Before Bain came to Gotham, there were basically no people who were particularly difficult to deal with.

Only Gordon is left as an opponent for McGieson.

There is no better time than now for Kaito Kidd to make his debut.

Soon, three days passed, and finally it was the day of Kidd's notice.

On this day, Gordon and Aaron led a team of police and rushed to the Gotham City Exhibition Hall early, and then they were shocked by the buzzing crowd.

They saw that the gate of the exhibition hall was crowded with people and was blocked by more than a dozen policemen who were arranged formerly to guard the gate.

And it's not the time for opening...

"What the **** is going on, why are there so many people here?"

Gordon frowned and asked.

"This... I don't know, sir."

Aaron was also dumbfounded.

Although the Adam's Star is precious, it should not be so attractive to many people except for the upper class.

At a glance, there are more than 300 people surrounding the entrance of the exhibition hall, and more people are coming every minute.

You must know that it is only seven o'clock in the morning, and the exhibition will not start until two o'clock in the afternoon, and will last until two o'clock in the afternoon the next day, and will not be closed midway.

"Could it be...?"

Gordon suddenly thought of a possibility, these people shouldn't have come for the Kaito Kidd, right?

How is this possible? GCPD did not disclose this to the outside world, only the exhibitor and the police station knew about this...

"Look, it's Jim Gordon!"

At this moment, an exclamation came from the crowd, and dozens of people squeezed out of the crowd and surrounded Gordon and Aaron.

There are men and women in this group, some carrying cameras and some holding microphones. They are obviously reporters from major media.

They started asking Gordon questions as soon as they appeared. Everyone had their own questions, and they almost stunned Gordon.

"Chief Gordon, do you know the true identity of Kaito Kidd?"

"Chief Gordon, is it true that the thief Kidd will come to steal Adam's Star today?"

"We heard that you made an exception to mobilize one-tenth of the GCPD police force to protect the exhibition hall. As far as I know, the value of the Adam Star does not seem to require such a large police force deployment."

"Is it really necessary to mobilize so many police officers for a criminal? They only appeared during the turmoil eight years ago. Don't you think that Kaito Kidd will be another super criminal in Gotham after eight years?"

"Shut Up!"

Gordon yelled, and the reporters suddenly shut their mouths, but their eyes were still staring at Gordon expectantly.

"Before answering your questions, what I need to know is, why do you know Kaito Kidd, and why did these civilians gather in this place?"

As soon as this statement came out, the reporters looked at Gordon with unbelieving eyes.

"Don't you know Kidd's notice? Just last night, many people in most parts of the city picked up the letter of Kaito Kidd, saying that he will take the Stone of Destiny today."

"This matter has been spread on the Internet, you shouldn't be ignorant about this, right?"

The reporter who asked the question wore a peaked cap, which was so low that you could not see his face.

Gordon turned to Aaron.

"Hey, sir, look, everyone knows that I am not good at social networking or something like that."

Gordon: "..."
