Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 30: Taken advantage of

Because just after the miner finished the auction of the golden and green cat's eyes, he died suddenly in less than a week!

The cause of death is said to be sudden cardiac infarction caused by excessive drinking.

As for how to dispose of the $20 million inheritance after the death of the mine owner, no news has been released.

I only know that the mine owner has a daughter in her twenties, but it seems that some unknown factors have caused her to lose her inheritance rights.

The only report fragment contains a very small part of the description, saying that the mine owner’s daughter once claimed that her father did not have the habit of drinking, and even rarely drinks much in normal times.

However, it seemed reasonable to be drunk and suddenly killed by someone on the grounds that "it is very easy to change a person in the face of bankruptcy."

That's right, this someone was a lawyer hired by Daget, and it was this lawyer who was involved in the problem that caused the mine owner's daughter to lose her inheritance rights, and even because of the loss of financial resources, she was forced to suspend school...

Gotham City, East Side.

The most chaotic and sordid area of ​​the city is home to more than 90% of the poor and homeless people in Gotham.

This is also the birthplace of countless talents in the Arkham Asylum.

Deep in the slum, in a very dilapidated small room, Pamela curled up in the corner, hugging her knees tightly with her hands.

She didn't dare to run outside, because she was too beautiful, and in the chaotic East Side, the more beautiful a woman was, the more dangerous.

The dilapidated wooden door that creaks when the wind blows gently can't give Pamela any sense of security. She is always scared, and a group of unbearable beasts may come in in the next second.

"Boom boom!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, which made Pamela tremble all over.

She shivered against the door, hoping to stop a possible smashing of the door.

"Excuse me, is Miss Eisley inside?"

Pamela didn't dare to answer. Although the voice outside the door was gentle and amiable, it didn't mean that she could open the door unsuspectingly.

Because in addition to the gangsters who might come here, Daget's people might also come here.

She has seen enough of those ugly faces that are stern, so she doesn't want to pay attention to the people outside the door.

"I'm not under Dagt, I'm here to help you."

Outside the door, McGyson said softly. After waiting for a long time, he still couldn't get Pamela's response, so he had to dispel the idea of ​​letting her open the door.

Putting an envelope into the crack of the door, he stepped back and said, "Miss Eisley, I feel sympathy for your experience, so I am here sincerely to return the lost property."

"If this matter is made known to Dagett, he will definitely be against you again, so leave Gotham as soon as possible. In addition to your belongings, there is a ferry ticket to New York in the envelope."

Hearing these words, Pamela was puzzled, how could she not understand what the person outside said.

Looking down, there was actually a white envelope sticking out from under the crack of the door.

Pamela picked up the envelope suspiciously, opened it, and saw that it was the golden-green cat's eye that his father took for auction!

As the people outside said, the envelope is not only a golden and green cat's eye, but also a direct ferry ticket to New York and a thousand dollars in cash. Although not much, it is enough to make Pamela cover her mouth with red eyes.

"thanks."

At this time, apart from these two words, Pamela couldn't say anything else.

Of course, she already knew who the person outside the door was. There was a lot of trouble about the strange thief Kidd stealing the golden and green cat's eyes, and she knew it too.

"No thanks, you can go directly to the pier from here. You don't have to worry about it. Those little **** can't hurt you."

"Oh, by the way, the clothes on your body should be too old to wear right now, I brought you a new set of clothes, but there is no way for you to take a shower, so I can only take them out."

McGyson put the big bag in his hand on the ground and said: "There is no way for clothes to be stuffed through the cracks in the door. I know you won't trust strangers now, so I won't show up in your sight."

Pamela listened quietly. After a while, she heard the footsteps go away, and soon she lost all the sounds outside.

After a while, she poked out her head cautiously, and there was a bag of clothes outside the door, and there were no figures in sight. Even the sound of fighting and fighting that used to be every night disappeared.

Pamela pursed her lips, decided to trust McGieson once, lifted the bag and returned to the house.

"This... the size is just right?"

After changing her clothes, Pamela was surprised to find that the clothes fit quite well.

"Kid, the strange thief, is really a magical person..."

The time for the ship to sail was tonight, and it was not too late. Pamela packed up and walked out the door and ran towards the pier.

Along the way, I did not receive any harassment.

Pamela was a little worried at first, but she soon felt relieved.

When approaching the dock, Pamela suddenly stopped.

She looked hesitant and kept looking around, as if trying to find someone.

"Miss Eisley, are you looking for me?"

Without warning, a gentle voice rang behind Pamela.

This voice has a magical power that can soothe the anxiety in people's hearts.

Pamela turned her head fiercely, and the white thief came into view.

Even though she has seen a lot of pictures of the thief, it is the first time she has seen it with her own eyes.

At this moment, Pamela was attracted by the demeanor of Kaid, who was actually fascinated by it.

"Ahem, Miss Eisley?"

McGieson coughed slightly to remind.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I was so rude."

Pamela's face rose flush.

"Don't mind, Miss Eisley, I am glad that you are willing to meet with me."

McGieson gave a gentle smile, and saw him kneeling on one knee like a gentleman, slowly holding Pamela's hand.

Then she kissed gently on the back of her hand.

"Gee...Mr. Kidd?"

Pamela blushed and withdrew her little hand, her heart bumping like a deer.

Hearing this name, McGieson was taken aback, and then he came over.

No one knows the real name of the thief, so Kidd can only be called by his name.

"You took the risk to steal back my father's belongings from Daget and helped me leave Gotham. Thank you very much!"

Pamela said with a serious face, the blush on her face has not yet disappeared, and she looks very cute with her already delicate and lovely face.

It seems that Pamela thought that the thief Kidd was stealing gems to help her get justice.

McGyson was ashamed, he didn't even know it when he stole the gems.

But let this wonderful misunderstanding continue.

"I know that sooner or later I will be retaliated by Daggett if I continue to stay in Gotham, but what will happen if I go to New York?"

"This gem has caused my father's tragedy, so I don't want to keep it anymore..."

Pamela's eyes were full of confusion, and that's why she didn't run to the dock in one breath.

"This is easy to handle. There is a man named Tony Stark in New York. You go to him with the golden and green cat's eyes and explain everything to him. He will buy gems, and he will not do things like Dagett. "

"As for Dagett, you don't have to worry about him too much."

McGinson pointed out a clear path for her.

Pamela finally let go of what McGinson said.

"Woo~Woo~"

At this time, a whistle sounded in the direction of the terminal, and the cruise ship set sail!

"No, there are still ten minutes before the sailing time, right?"

Pamela panicked. Who would have thought that the cruise ship would depart early at this time, and it would be nice not to be late in normal times.

"Don't be afraid, I will send you up."

McGinson gave Pamela a relieved smile, took her by the hand and ran to the building not far away.

Going to the top of the building, McGyson turned his head and asked, "Have you ever experienced the feeling of flying?"

"Huh?" Pamela was dumbfounded.

"Remember to hold me tight!"

I saw McGieson hugged Pamela in his waist, and started sprinting in the direction of the dock, ran to the edge of the roof, and jumped off!

"Ah!" Pamela screamed out of fright, her eyes closed tightly, and her arms hugged McGinson's neck tightly.

"Haha, Miss Asley, don't be afraid, we can't fall."

Hearing Kidd's teasing, Pamela slowly opened her eyes, and then she was shocked by the sight in front of her and couldn't speak.

I actually flew up in the sky, and the night view of Gotham was unobstructed. Looking down, the sparse pedestrians were like ants, and the blurry lights flickered everywhere.

"What a nice view……"

Pamela murmured.

"Yeah, it's beautiful, even Gotham Night, sometimes there is a beautiful side."

Listening to McGieson's words, Pamela turned her gaze to the face of Kaito Kidd. What kind of face was under the monocle?

McGieson held herself in her hands, and at this time, she only needed to stretch out her hand to take off Kidd's glasses.

Pamela was very curious about Kidd's true face, but she knew this was McGeeson's biggest secret, so she didn't do it, but stared at McGeeson's face in a dream.

I just feel that no woman in the world can resist Kidd's charm.

Unknowingly, Pamela's face got closer and closer to McGieson, and finally kissed him on the cheek.

"!"

McGieson's eyes widened in an instant, he was...have been taken advantage of?
