It's a very bad day for Penguin.

A certain misfortune hung over him, making him unlucky from morning to night.

First, in the morning, half of the guards he sneaked into the city hall had already gone to hell, and half had been sent to the prison hospital, where they would serve their sentences after surgery, seamlessly.

In the various departments of the city government, the people he planned to buy were still hesitant, but once this happened, they immediately cut off their cooperation with him——

The new mayor does not seem to be someone easy to provoke, and this killing of chickens and monkeys foretells that if you resist her, you will end up in prison or hell.

After this battle, the cooperation between Penguin and Black Mask was temporarily cut off, of course only "temporarily". People like them have no permanent enemies...except Batman.

However, our dear Mr. Coppert has other troubles, that is, the urging from the court of owls, because some business with the black mask may not be able to continue, a batch of goods is backlogged in his hands, and on the other hand, The court of owls wants a lot of cash from him.

Perhaps these disgusting moths should go to hell more than a "businessman" like him.

Coppert sneered.

But his business still needs to go on, and he still needs to continue to make false claims with the Court of Owls—they are part of the darkness of Gotham, or the darkness itself. business is running smoothly.

Compared with them, the mayor Anna Elek is just a stupid, rampant fool. I believe that after finding out her details, the mayor will disappear silently and become one person just like her predecessor and more predecessors corpse.

So Coppert needs cash, and court members who don't want to be exposed don't accept virtual transfers.

However, in a short period of time, he was unable to obtain a large amount of cash, and there was a problem with his capital turnover, not to mention the mercury transaction and Robin. Compared with the capital problem, it was just a small episode.

This made the penguin very irritable all day, until this moment——

【"Hello?"】

He got an "investment" from a mysterious person, or "friendship".

【"You can call me Mr. C."】

The voice on the other end of the phone was obviously a synthetic voice, unidentifiable as male or female. Most of Copperpot's guests were like this, hiding their heads and showing their tails, and the mysterious man brought a cooperation.

"Mr. C" solved his cash flow problem, only...

【"I am obsessed with all kinds of gambling. I like to gamble at any time - 15 days. After 15 days, I will return all the money I invested, regardless of profit or loss, as long as I have the original amount, how?"]

If "Mr. C" is really a gambler, then he must be bad at it.

"Then what's the price?" Penguin is still very cautious, Mr. C who appeared out of nowhere is very suspicious.

【"I like excitement," the other party smiled, "If you can't return it, you must give me all of you."】

——If this guy really likes to gamble, he must often choose "Stud".

"That's not fair," said Penguin slyly, "unless you put everything on the table too."

【"Then it's decided." The other party's voice was brisk, and then there was only a blind voice on the other side of the phone. 】

Copperpot: "..."

In the next second, a huge amount of money was transferred in his account, which was the number they had negotiated.

The light hit half of his gloomy face, and the Penguin gritted his teeth, but he didn't think there was anything wrong, would he not be able to pay back the money in half a month?how can that be possible?But he may not pay back the money.

So it's really just a show?

Staring at the numbers on the account, he casually threw the brandy aside on the forehead of the subordinate in front of him, the wine splashed and the blood dripped slowly, and the subordinate did not dare to move.

——They just lost in the hands of Robin, and even the goods were taken away.

A bunch of trash.

At the same time, the call on Weiwei's interface disappeared.

In the slow burning special effect, a contract with red letters on a black background appeared along with the flames, like a contract from a devil.

[Contract requirements: Penguin returns the investment of 4 gold coins on April 18]

[If the Penguin returns successfully, everything belonging to the investor "Mr. C" will belong to the Penguin]

[If Penguin fails to return, everything belonging to Penguin will belong to the investor "Mr. C"]

[Everything on both sides has been put on the balance]

【The contract has come into effect】

The most amazing thing is that there are signatures of Weiwei and Penguin on the contract.

They are "Oswald Chesterfield Copperpot" and the "C" made up by Vivi.

Compared with Mr. Copperpot, who put his full name on it, Weiwei's signature is very perfunctory.

What is all that Mr. C has... Weiwei thought about it, it should be "his" name.

But she wouldn't think about what would happen if she really failed, it was just a game anyway.

Currently, the balance in the public account is less than 80 gold coins, and Weiwei's private account is relatively well-off, but if it goes according to her plan, it will probably last less than fifteen days.

Under such circumstances, when she opened the gold coin mall, she was a little reluctant to spend money——

[Colorful time street tree, price: 300 gold coins]

[It can only be planted in the open air in the city, it will light up differently when it feels the strong emotions of nearby humans, and it may be used to create a festive atmosphere]

【Can be purchased repeatedly, the upper limit is 0/10】

[Speed ​​limit warning license plate, price: 400 gold coins]

[The circular license plate marked with "60" will always have various accidents in the city, maybe it's time to let them know the dangers of speeding]

[Enforced speed limit.It is recommended to be placed in areas where traffic accidents are frequent. 】

[Second-hand AI, price: 88888 gold coins (after discount)]

[The second-hand product that can only appear on the computer has been replaced by the previous owner, but the utility is powerful and can carry part of the panel data and complete some necessary deduction. 】

[It is only used for one-way transmission, and cannot be directly displayed on the player's system panel, because it is a second-hand product, and it is already a discounted price]

Every time this happens, I feel that the money is really not enough... Weiwei glanced at her balance, feeling sad.

Forget about street trees and license plates. Second-hand AI is something that Weiwei needs urgently but cannot afford. From the description, she understands that she should rely on this to export the "map" or "file" on her system panel to the computer, and then complete the underground Must be useful when building the main quest.

Sometimes she bought props from the gold coin mall and would not use them immediately, such as a hammer, but the mall has a purchase limit and is refreshed every day. Will not flash out again.

Faced with the word "limited time and limited time", no matter how cunning a player is, he can't play the evil plan, damn it!

Since she couldn't afford the most expensive one, Weiwei didn't buy any at all.

Considering that she had misunderstood Robin's existence at night, she simply took out the computer and made up for the news reports one by one while the NPCs were resting.

The night was dark, and most of the lights were extinguished. In the city hall, there was only the faint reflection of the computer screen.

The days that followed were uneventful.

Give the task of exploring the underground and the two rings to Sheila, she is much more efficient at controlling the mouse than Vivi; Sheila is getting acquainted with Millie slowly, it seems that their roommates are not bad; After learning about his new position, Ke quickly adapted to it. Perhaps a real social animal has no limit.

The black mask didn't move, maybe he was still watching her?It is also possible that the plot on his side is temporarily over, and to wait for the next plot node to be triggered, Wei Wei happened to focus on dealing with Penguin - but the gold coin mall did not spawn any special props, most of them were general decorations like street trees. It is worth mentioning that AI is on the shelves again, but Weiwei still can't afford it, so she can only look at the screen and sigh.

In the past few days, special events have been triggered, one is Sheila:

"I met strange people underground, some I've seen last time, some I haven't seen, and some people don't look like humans, they look like reptiles."

"I avoid them and go."

It seems that a new branch line will be triggered here, but Weiwei needs to accompany Sheila.

The other is Sherk:

"The people in the black mask tried to contact me... but I avoided them by using my work, what do you think I should do, Ms. Aleck?"

This should be a follow-up task that triggers the black mask, and Weiwei told Shelk to "stay vigilant and ignore it for the time being".

She can postpone this task.

In addition to collecting information, she also doesn't forget to touch her own body once a day. By choosing the "C" option, her list with the Penguin has been scheduled for next month——Weiwei discovered it before, and she seems to be Another loophole in the system was discovered. The transaction of three liters of mercury is mandatory, as long as the order is placed, both parties must trade, but she did not trigger the "probability of encountering Coppert" once.

Interesting option C, who would have thought that both investors and mysterious buyers are actually code-named "C"?

Time soon came to the second delivery day——

It was still night, just changed the location from "Diamond District" to "Crime Alley".

She took off her glasses, put on a hammer, and with a gun on her waist, she got into the sewer familiarly.

——Currently, the completion rate of [Main Mission · Underground Map] is 43%.

Tim hits the enter key.

"The sewer next to the house at No. 17 Crime Lane, right under the manhole cover..." The blue-green light curtain sprinkled on his face, and he complained, "Why do they start to like to conduct transactions underground?"

Even though the vigilante is an unpaid job, he still hopes that his working environment can be better.

But this time, it's not him who is responsible for stopping the Penguin, but the person on the other side of the communication line——

"Maybe they've finally figured out the nature of the stinky rats in their gutters, don't you, bat?"

"You have to be vigilant," said a husky male voice from the opposite side, "support me, Robin."

Tim shrugged.

He's certainly not getting too cocky, he's just... that's Batman, isn't it?

With Batman as the master of stealth, he doesn't think the situation like last time will happen again. Who knows Gotham's sewers better than Batman himself?

Vivi threw the hammer back and forth, and swarms of rats and roaches ran past her, so she had no choice but to avoid the little creatures.

Staring at the unfamiliar dots on the map, she slowly said, "...Batman?"

Can she prostitute this batch of goods again?
