American comics: Because I am Batman
Chapter 55 Batman vs. Iron Man Part 2: New York Losing Batman
George looked at the bat symbol in the sky, sighed, and turned off the bat light.
"You guys should go back too!" He turned around and said to the two Spider-Man and Robin: "Batman is not here, so you don't have to take over his job. There are still police in New York City! It's not the children's turn. On the battlefield!"
"But, Commissioner George, you also know how corrupt the New York City Police Department is!"
Robin did not back down and even took a step forward: "The Kevlar body armor, as well as anti-blast shields and Taser guns donated to the police department by Wayne Group last month, actually fell into the hands of gangsters!"
Robin approached George and stared up at him: "How many people are there in New York City who can be trusted? How many people are there who have not yet fallen?"
George also said sternly to Robin: "Then let me tell you, you little brat who imitates Batman! This is not something you need to worry about!"
Robin took a deep breath, said no more, turned and left.
Miles followed Robin and jumped out of the police station, while Spider-Gwen stayed in place and persuaded George: "Director George, just let us help! New York City is so big, isn't it..."
"This is not a question of whether I allow you to help or not!"
Because he had an inexplicable affection for Spider-Gwen, George's tone became softer: "It's a problem with Batman... To be precise, it's a problem with the spirit that Batman represents!
You think I don’t know how corrupt the NYPD is? I know, I'm the police chief, no one knows better than me!
Working with him over the past two years, I have learned that Batman has two layers of meaning.
One is fear. Those who want to commit crimes are afraid that Batman will come to their door. He has never been kind to criminals!
This kind of fear can keep those criminals, those bad guys, in New York City at a loss!
Second, there is hope!
As the Commissioner of the New York City Police Department, I have seen so many dark things! Why are there so many gangs in New York City that are like weeds that cannot be eradicated?
Because New York City caught them and released them, and then let Batman catch them back!
When only Batman is here, when only Batman is here, people in New York City will feel:
If the law cannot punish those criminals, then Batman will definitely seek justice for them! "
George said, his throat was a little dry, and he took a sip of coffee.
It's so painful, it's not this hard usually.
Frowning, he continued: "Batman is not so much a person as he is a symbol!
People in New York City will stand up and take the initiative to fight against evil because they know that Batman will definitely be on their side.
This is not something you can bring to the people of New York just by following Batman's example!
This is...this is..."
George looked at the sky, expecting that his old friend would suddenly appear on the roof of the building next to the police station and then fly down as usual.
"This is, this is the sense of security that only Batman can bring to the citizens of New York!"
After hearing this, Spider-Gwen nodded sadly.
"But what happens to New York City if Batman never comes back?"
George lit up a rare cigarette. He had never smoked it before, but now he found it was a good thing.
"New York City still has police, New York City still has me!"
We can't always count on Batman, we can't always count on Batman, we can't just count on Batman.
Spider-Gwen left quietly, and George didn't look back.
On Robin's motorcycle, Robin investigated the whereabouts of the previous batch of Kevlar body armor.
He installed a locator inside.
"Robin, it seems that George doesn't want to cooperate with us... The main reason is, besides the fact that we are too young, he also thinks that no one can replace Batman."
Spider-Gwen walked up to Robin, her tone full of worry: "Also, Robin, you haven't slept for three days! You need a good rest!"
Robin was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "After Mr. Bat left, we didn't even stop the robberies on the streets! New York City will soon be back to what it was before! We must do something!"
Spider-Gwen also wanted to persuade Robin, but Miles stopped her.
He whispered to Spider-Gwen: "Let him try, let him do it! You can't let him wallow in sadness all day long!"
Spider-Gwen looked at Robin's back and lowered her head.
At the same time, in a pub across the street from the police station, Jessica seemed to be under a spell, slowly, slowly, once and for all, clicking on the keyboard.
"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable with changing bosses?"
"From Wayne to Tony Stark...it's all the same, I just..."
Faced with Erica's question, Jessica looked at the computer screen blankly: "In the past, when Batman was still around, the Daily Planet's Chicken Soup for the Soul, those nonsense that sounded very positive, had almost no one. There were quite a few who responded and laughed at...
It's just... how should I put it, after he left, there were people guarding these things every day, hoping to find some spiritual comfort...
Hey, I don’t know what to say! "
Erica drank Jessica's unfinished wine and wiped her lips proudly: "I thought you lost your job after losing Batman!"
Jessica glanced at the empty wine bottle and asked the bartender to give her an extra bottle: "This is one of the reasons, but I won't lose my job. Perry still thinks highly of me. After all, I have the ability to work." Not bad really.
The thing is, you know what, I don’t know how to put it.
I have talked with Batman several times, and I feel that he is not a god-like person with three heads and six arms, as in the legend.
He, he is like your elder, very rich in life experience, very wise, very intelligent...
A person you once came into contact with or talked to is gone.
I just...feel that things are a bit fickle! "
Listening to Jessica's words, Erica took the wine brought by the bartender: "Then, let's drown our sorrows with wine!"
"Hmph! You will be responsible for paying me later!"
Erica smiled, then her phone rang.
"Uh, looks like I can't drink with you anymore! I have a date tonight!"
"Ha ha!"
It’s impossible to believe that Erica is dating, but Jessica doubts that this guy is a lily and even has a frigid nature.
After saying goodbye to Jessica, Erica left the tavern and climbed to the top of a building with movements that were not human--the building next to the police station.
"Do you masked vigilantes like to look down at the people from the top of the building?"
she said to Daredevil.
"I seem to be the only masked vigilante left in New York City that I know of!"
Daredevil turned around and said, "The Stickman has decided to accept you!"
"Hmm? Then has he asked me for my opinion?"
Daredevil shrugged: "Not really, he just thought that you might need some spiritual comfort."
"Me? What comfort do I need?"
Erica smiled, but what Daredevil said after that made her stop laughing: "The reason why you stayed in New York City was because you saw Batman helping the strong and the weak and beating up those criminals, so you felt very... very Handsome, you want to imitate him.
But now that Batman has died, you understand that Batman's strength does not come from his physical strength or his violence.
You've seen how chaotic New York is these days. Before Batman came along, this was the norm in New York City.
So, you're confused now, you think Batman makes criminals fearful, and it's not just his powers that make him fearful.
There is something else.
Gunsou can teach you these. "
Erica was silent for a long time, and finally said to Daredevil: "Is your stronghold still the abandoned building from before?"
"The Wayne Group funded a certain blind lawyer and made him a lot of money. Now, that lawyer and his teacher are living in Dabieye!"
"It's a villa!"
Tony corrected James: "Can this place still be called an apartment? Are you looking down on me too much?"
James looked at the war machine armor that Tony had prepared for him and licked his lips: "Are all your rich people's quirks like this? You like to live on an isolated island. Wayne is even more fond of living in seclusion in the mountains and forests and living next to the lake. .”
Hearing this name, Tony's expression changed, but he quickly recovered: "Well... normal people can correct it, no need for rich second generation."
“Congress recently planned to question you, in the name of investigating whether you possess weapons of mass destruction – which, of course, you certainly do.
But to put it bluntly, you know very well what they want.
Also, the chief executive of Hammer Industries seems to have some objections to you..."
James said as he left Tony's villa. He still had things to do: "He originally wanted to take advantage of Wayne's death to eat away at the Wayne Group, but he didn't expect you to take action and save the entire Wayne Group. he is very angry!"
"Then let him do it!"
Tony said nonchalantly. After James left, he turned and looked at the sofa aside: "Come out, he left!"
Black Widow Natasha jumped out from behind the sofa: "I don't see that your social circle is quite wide!"
"I also know Batman, you know?"
Tony sat down on the sofa and spoke before Natasha could speak: "Go back and tell your director about his plan for the Avengers, and I agreed!"
"Huh? I thought you would refuse righteously!" Natasha smiled and threw the information about the Avengers on the table: "Did Batman make you change your mind?"
Tony said nothing, just touched the reactor on his chest.
He was currently thinking about two scenes in his mind.
One is his father, Howard Stark said to him: You are my greatest masterpiece.
The second was the explosion that nearly turned night into day over the abandoned port of New York City.
"I..." Tony hesitated and hesitated for a long time before saying to Natasha: "I owe him."
Natasha fell silent too, and all of New York City owed him.
"SHIELD will help manage Wayne Group..."
"No, let me do it!" Tony immediately rejected Natasha: "I don't believe he died like this. For such a big industry and such a big group, I don't believe the plane he made didn't even have automatic piloting!
Besides, I can’t trust you either! "
Natasha nodded: "Okay, then you should take good care of your friend's inheritance and wait for him to come back!"
After Natasha left, Tony ordered Jarvis to turn off all the lights in the villa.
He suddenly liked the feeling of being alone in a dark room, looking out the window at the brightly lit New York City.
This is a kind of enjoyment. Compared with flying in the sky, it makes him feel...
That person will be by his side, fighting alongside him.
However, everyone knows that he will not come back again.
Especially romantic.
"I shouldn't go to that place where there are only ice cubes!" Yue clicked on the screen button with tears on her face: "I should stay here!"
The remaining three girls didn't say anything. Their only solace now was to watch a video.
"I'm Wayne..."
On the huge screen of the Batcomputer, a man with a haggard face appeared. His face was full of stubble and his hair was very long. It looked like he hadn't taken care of it for a long time.
He didn't wear a bat mask, but he wore a bat suit.
This man is both Wayne and Batman.
"If this video is seen by you, it means that I am dead, maybe at the gunpoint of a street gangster, maybe for something else.
I can only hope, or rather hope, that what I die for is justice. "
"I have been fighting crime in New York City for so many years, but I have not achieved much. The number of people who die from crime in New York City every year remains high. This is my fault."
"From more than 4,700 to more than 300, does this mean your achievement is not high?"
Feng muttered something in a low voice, and she would complain every time she watched it, sobbing and complaining at the same time.
"Wayne Corporation is one of the few things I will leave to New York City when I die.
I will shut down Wayne Group's military division.
Then I will auction off all the Wayne Group shares I hold and use them for charity.
Hua is the manager of the Wayne Charitable Foundation, and she will handle it properly. "
Wayne in the video pondered for a moment: "I, I don't know what will happen to New York City when I die. Maybe, when I die, everything Batman has done before will be in vain.
In fact, I have gradually lost touch with the name Batman. Just tonight, I watched a criminal fall to his death, but because I was surrounded by criminals, I watched all this happen. "
"I hope that if anyone can inherit my will after my death...
I hope this person can believe that Batman is not a god and he does not have the right to sanction everything; he is a human being and he does not have the right to take away life. "
"Final words... To my lovely girls, I love you!"
