Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 133: Horrific Hypnosis

5/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.

 “I’m Clarice Starling, an active FBI field agent.”

Calculated from Hannibal’s imprisonment, thirty minutes later, a gorgeous female agent found her way to Blackgate Prison.

As early as Queen Elizabeth’s visit a few months ago ended, Starling had been secretly hiding in Gotham to investigate Hannibal’s whereabouts. 

Earlier, she received a report from Marvie, confirming that Hannibal had a trading relationship with the Penguin. 

From time to time, the Penguin provided homeless people in Gotham City to feed Hannibal, and Hannibal helped him secretly to execute one of his plans. 

Unfortunately, Marvie’s status is not high enough to unravel his whereabouts. 

Marvie Jean Angers was the informant who Starling had sent to spy on the Penguin.

As a result, it is unknown whether or not Hannibal was aware of Starling’s existence, he stopped contacting the Penguin during this period of time. 

Only one clue has been discovered, and Starling and Marvie hadn’t made any progress in the past few months. 

The murder of Hannibal in the street did not happen until recently. 

And as soon as Starling heard news about Hannibal, she rushed to the Black Gate Prison. 

However, when she arrived at the Black Gate Prison, she was stunned by the smoke of gunpowder in front of her. 

There were bullet holes and bloodstains everywhere, and there were even prison guards carrying some dead bodies. 

It’s like just experiencing a fierce firefight here. 

She showed her ID to the police officer at the Black Gate Prison and successfully entered. 

Because she was the rightful person to escort Hannibal to Arkham. 

“Agent Starling, it’s nice to meet you, but I regret to tell you… that you are late.” 

The person in charge of the Black Gate Prison came to Starling with a heavy look on his face. 

“What happened? Did a terrorist group attack the Black Gate Prison?” 

Starling hurriedly asked. 

“Twenty minutes ago, Hannibal broke out of prison!” 

The warden looked gloomy at this moment, as if tears were about to drop out of his eyes. 

“Not only that, but he also released all the criminals at the bottom of the Black Gate Prison and created a riot.” 

Since “Dent Act’s” implementation eight years ago, Black Gate has almost become synonymous with unbreakable. 

Today there was the largest mass escape riot ever, and the warden’s record will suffer a permanent stain.

“How is the situation now? Are there any casualties? And… besides Hannibal, are there any super criminals who managed to escape?” 

Upon hearing this, Starling’s eyes condensed, while asking the warden. 

From what she knows about Hannibal, any move he lakes is full of implemented meaning.

Judging from his ‘stupid act’ of killing people in the street, anyone with a discerning eye would know that Hannibal has deliberately sent himself to prison. 

The purpose is naturally not simply to experience the thrill of jailbreaking. 

Obviously, there was someone Hannibal wanted to see in the Black Gate Prison, and he was there to help this prisoner escape. 

The problem is that Starling can’t be sure whether Hannibal was instigated by the Penguin or himself. 

Facing Starling’s proposal, the warden agreed without much consideration. 

The tension between local police and federal agents is no longer something he cares about. 

No matter who it is, as long as the escaped criminals can be caught back, the warden’s record will be less stained. 

“Please follow me, Agent Starling.” 

Then, the warden personally brought Starling to the monitoring room. 

There are already many people discussing what happened in the surveillance video. 

They saw Hannibal, after being put into the cell, taking the initiative to initiate a conversation with the woman next to him.

After a few minutes, the two seemed to have reached a consensus. 

In the surveillance, the woman suddenly yelled, covering her abdomen with her hand. 

And she even rolled on the floor. 

At the same time, Hannibal shouted anxiously at the two prison guards outside the corridor. 

The two guards saw that Hannibal and Selina’s cell door was still locked so they didn’t think much of it and quickly came closer to investigate the situation.

Then, a scene that everyone couldn’t believe happened. 

Hannibal called out to one of the younger guards.

Then the young man came closer, but fortunately, didn’t have the guts to come too close to Hannibal’s prison door; he kept a safe distance. 

The old prison guard was checking Selina’s condition through the bars, and he didn’t even have time to stop his junior. 

Hannibal, with a kind smile on his face, watched the young prison guard advance closely and kept talking. 

Slowly, the young guard’s eyes changed.

Hannibal smiled happily. He stopped talking and just pointed at the old prison guard next door and made a slight gesture to shoot. 

“What!” 

Everyone in the monitoring room exclaimed. 

Because what was shown on the surveillance screen was exactly the young prison guard aiming at the old guard and killing him with one shot! 

It was only Starling’s expression that did not change much. 

She knew that Hannibal hypnotized the guard. 

In just ten seconds, a few simple words can temporarily control a person’s words and acts. 

This is Hannibal’s most advanced ability. 

It is also the reason why he was able to dazzle for so many years without being captured. 

This level of hypnotism sounds like a fantasy, but it’s not impossible. 

Hannibal himself is one of the most outstanding psychologists in the world, and hypnotizing patients is an ordinary job. 

He himself had extremely high accomplishments in the field of hypnotism. Later, after he began to kill and eat human flesh, Hannibal also made a series of improvements to hypnosis.

The most elusive of these is the one he has just shown. 

Hannibal can hypnotize a person in just a dozen seconds and make him perform his own designated actions. 

The disadvantage is that he can only hypnotize one person at a time and this hypnosis is maintained for a very short time. 

If the person being hypnotized is not focused enough, Hannibal will not be able to hypnotize them successfully. 

Sure enough, after the old guard was shot dead, the young guard woke up.

He hugged his head, kneeled down, and cried, unable to believe what he had just committed.

He didn’t even care about what Hannibal and Selina were up to. 

At this time, Selina didn’t need to continue her act of being unwell, she easily stretched out her long legs. Then with her toes, she removed a set of keys hanging from the old prison guard’s belt.

The cell door was opened with a click. 

Suddenly, all the criminals cheered. They obviously wanted Selina to release them too. 

Needless to say, what happened next, Hannibal and Selina released all the criminals held at the bottom of Black Gate Prison. 

At this time, the prison guards had also assembled. 

From the bottom of the Blackgate prison to escape, there is only one way to go, the guards firmly guard the gate, the riot was quickly suppressed. 

After checking their database, they found that Hannibal and Selina had disappeared…
