Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics - Chapter 196

Looking at the scarecrow’s back, Baine was lost in thought.

“It seems that Roman Cynthos is no longer satisfied that we continue to press on him, even in name only.”

Thalia walked to Bain’s side from the balcony and whispered softly.

Even a dogleg under the black mask dared to be so arrogant in front of Baine, if it wasn’t for him to think that his life was long, it must be because the other party had the confidence not to be afraid of his own side.

The possibility of the former is almost equal to zero. After all, before today, the cooperation between Bain and the black mask was still exchanged, and there was no substantial conflict.

Even the Black Mask himself has not been so tough in front of Baine, and even the relationship between the two parties has been greatly eased after Baine provided a large number of weapons.

So what is the reason for such a big change in the attitude of the black mask?

After thinking about the last meaningful words of the Scarecrow, is it possible that the thief Kidd has found the black mask, and they have reached some kind of cooperation?

“If Sean Sauss intends to sever relations with us, then he will definitely not deal with Jim Gordon.”

Talia analyzed.

“Everything that happened just now has been fully explained. Even if Kobot doesn’t have a heart with us, at least it will not end the cooperation with us.”

“If Sienthos is desperate, it is likely to face a joint crusade by both of us, then GCPD is the only combat power he can bring to his camp.”

This is not impossible, and it is never uncommon for GCPD to join forces with gangsters under special circumstances.

The black mask is so anxious to mobilize the manpower to go to GCPD, what his true purpose is, it is simply obvious.

“I want to go to Cobot to talk in person.”

Bain said so.

“For the time being, it is not certain that Syenthos is in contact with Kaito Kidd, but since he has decided to stand on the opposite side of ours, we should just get rid of him!”

“Only by ourselves, the gangs who want to eat the black mask are still very strenuous. I must reinforce Kobot’s support for us. It is best to persuade him to kill Cynthos with us and send it before I come back. People go to monitor every move of the black mask gang.”

“Good idea, you go find that penguin now. As for the one wearing the black mask, let me look at him first. Don’t worry about me first. Perform secret surveillance missions. There is nothing better than the shadow warrior.”

Thalia nodded, now is not the time to show kindness, regardless of whether the black mask is wronged or not, this battle is always going to be fought.

After getting Thalia’s approval, Baine left the Cavaliers Arena.

But Talia led a group of Shadow Warriors to the Eastern District, which was the site of the Black Mask.

To be precise, only 90% of the sites are black masks…

On the other side, a road near Wayne Building.

Suddenly, a certain sewer manhole cover was about to move and was slowly removed, and then two sneaky figures climbed up from below.

They quietly looked around and found no trace of the enemy for the time being, so they began to scout the scene.

“This is the only road nearby that has no surveillance installed in the middle of the road.”

Barbara looked at the whole road, and the total length was very short to see the next intersection.

“I can feel that there is a lot of space below, and it is not formed naturally, nor is it a sewer or subway passage, but other artificially constructed spaces.”

Pamela uses the power of Poison Ivy and the underground plants to perceive the environment below the ground.

However, after waiting for a long time, she didn’t get a response from Barbara.

She looked back at Barbara strangely, only to find that she was staring at a statue on the side of the road intently.

A white statue engraved on a man riding a horse, dressed in gorgeous clothes and arrogant expression, giving people a sense of superiority. It looks like the style of construction is very old. Maybe it is describing a certain incomparable nobleman?

Pamela doesn’t quite understand this knowledge, but this is not the point.

“Hey! Barbara, this is not the time to admire the statue!”

Pamela rushed to Barbara and pushed her down, looking dissatisfied.

“Hush!”

Barbara quickly put her finger between her lips and nose, and motioned to Pamela not to make a sound.

“This statue is not simple.”

Barbara explained to Pamela in a low voice.

Pamela waited for her later text.

“Look, although the style of the statue is biased towards ancient times, the carvings here, here and here are very new and eye-catching.”

Barbara pointed at several places of the statue.

“This shows that the statues were completed only recently. Do you think Bain will build these statues leisurely after he takes over the Wayne Building?”

Pamela felt that what Barbara said made sense.

“It’s not just this statue,” I saw Barbara pointing forward along the road, “there is another statue over there.”

Pamela looked up, and there was indeed a statue about twenty meters away.

This statue is basically consistent with the style of the statue of a nobleman on horseback, except that the object of the depiction has changed from a nobleman to three civilians. The leading civilian is in a state of kneeling, holding a long cloth in his hand, and the two civilians behind him are Carrying a big bag respectively.

“There are also two opposing statues on the opposite side.”

Sure enough, with the statue of the nobleman on horseback and the statue of the three civilians as reference points, there are also two statues at the same distance across the road.

These two statues are interesting. They are a nun and a noble woman.

The positions of the four statues exactly form a rectangle with a length of 20 meters and a width of 15 meters, but the front of the statues are not uniform, which is very strange.

In fact, Pamela’s perspective could have been able to see these statues at once, but she was only interested in exploring the underground, so she didn’t find anything wrong with the statues, so that they ignored their existence.

“Do you think these statues have a certain meaning, or what mechanism are they?”

Pamela asked. She tried to touch the statue, but she touched all the statues and nothing changed.

Even the orientation of the statue cannot be changed.

“Maybe we missed something…”

Barbara thought for a while, but still didn’t have a clue.

“You just said that there is a lot of space underneath?”

Since I can’t figure it out for the time being, go find other clues first.

“Yes, someone carried out a difficult construction underground, like hollowing out a lot of soil.”

Pamela affirmed.

“Can your plants open the way to there?”

“Sorry, no.”

Pamela shook her head.

“I guess the following is a very sturdy secret laboratory. I tried to manipulate countless tree roots to attack it, but all failed without exception.”

“No hole was drilled.”
