I'm the villain in Gotham

"Okay, Bat." Constantine said, "I've said all I need to say. Do you have any questions? If not, I'll continue drinking."

The wad of banknotes that Batman casually handed to the bar owner looked like a lot, and it should be enough for him to drink another round.

"One last thing," Batman said, handing him a photo: "See this?"

After hearing Silence's self-report, Batman believes that the cult/cultist who has not yet been identified is a Philadelphian. Combined with Silence's rhetoric, he shifts his target to the files of those who have been ignored by him before and who have died In the end, I finally found the cultist in the police files.

His name is Wood Dale, and he was arrested a year ago for organizing cult activities with his accomplices in Philadelphia.The sacrificial scene at that time was very cruel and bloody, which inevitably aroused the panic of the public. This incident was kept in the file by the police as a secret, but it was not difficult for Batman.He found the photos taken by the police at the scene at that time, and selected some valuable ones.

Constantine took a look at the photo, curled his lips first, and commented: "Wow, it's good enough." He raised his hand under Batman's unfriendly gaze: "Okay, okay, let's talk about serious business." Constantine Ding squinted his eyes for a while, and said, "This magic circle looks familiar, I'm sure I'm looking somewhere... oh, there it is."

He returned the photo to Batman, took out a cigarette and lit it: "This is an evil/religious organization. They seem to serve some ancient evil gods. They are all fanatical lunatics who pursue their beliefs. I suggest you don't mess with it. Fuck them." After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then suddenly turned his head: "You won't have messed with them already, have you?"

Batman snorted noncommittally, and said, "I want to know more about this organization."

Constantine immediately vetoed: "No, I won't do it, I've had enough of this lately."

Batman didn't change his face: "Then I'll go find Zatanna."

Constantine: "..."

Constantine: "???"

"She is your friend, but you want to push her into the fire pit?!" He cried out in disbelief, his eyes were shining brightly:

Why are you worse than me? ? ?

"So I'll find you first." Batman seemed to smile slightly, or maybe the light was too dark, and Constantine himself was dazzled: "If you don't help, I have to go find her."

Constantine: "..."

Constantine gritted his teeth: "Why would Xiao Zha be friends with someone like you?"

"We are each other," Batman said, "and you owe me that."

Constantine, who was indeed cheating first, was speechless.

He groaned, rubbed his forehead and said, "Why are you bothering them again this time? First Erberist, then this cult organization. I said, do you have something that attracts this kind of Something's special constitution?"

Batman didn't speak, and threw him a bat-shaped gadget: "If you find a clue, use this to notify me."

After he finished speaking, he took out the bat hook gun under the eyes of Constantine rolling his eyes, and the grapple shot straight up, grabbed the connection point at the bottom of the bat plane, took him into the air quickly, and left the city.

……

The crisis of silence was lifted, and the Wayne couple finally returned to Wayne Manor after their trip in Europe called work but actually tourism.

When they found out that Lotkea was still not there, the two couldn't help asking questions.Bruce didn't change his expression, he had already prepared an answer to such a question: "He's doing a job that only he can do, and he won't be back until some time later."

Martha, who probably knew her son's little thoughts, glanced at him and said disapprovingly: "You can't always let him go out to work, Bruce, you need to spend more time together. Relationships are cultivated over time. .”

"I know, Mom." Bruce understood the hint, and said uncomfortably, "I'll pay attention to this."

Thomas disagreed with this, thinking that his career should be the most important thing, and then he was glanced at by Martha Bai, and was dragged away by his wife inexplicably.

Everything has been smooth after that—not smooth, since Bruce chose to work in Gotham at night, before transforming the city into his ideal country, nothing is really smooth, but at least it is better than It was much better a while ago.

Batman wanders the streets and alleys of Gotham every day, preventing gangsters from robbing and gangsters from smuggling/smuggling.After Maroni was arrested and imprisoned, Falcone and Sabatino were given a good bang by Batman in their bedroom and quieted down for a while.

Maroney's imprisonment and the recent sharp drop in the crime rate in Gotham City made Harvey Dent's voice and popularity reach the highest point. He will undoubtedly become the new mayor of Gotham City during the general election, and At the end of his inaugural address, he announced his and Gilda's wedding date.

Bruce gave him sincere applause from the audience.

After taking office as mayor, Harvey immediately promulgated several laws, which made Gotham's dark forces ready to move again.But the Audio-Technica had anticipated this and prepared a countermeasure. The gangsters just caused a little splash and then disappeared.

But whether it's Batman or Gordon, they think it's just the calm before the storm, and the darkness of Gotham never stops, and they are just ready to face it.

If one day Batman finishes his day's work early, he will drive the Batplane to the New York Temple.Doctor Strange is no stranger to his frequent visits. Given that this person has just paid money to the Temple, he is forced by the power of money, so Doctor Strange can only take him outside the door of Erberister's room with a cold face. And told him not to go in.

They spoke through a door and couldn't see each other's faces, but just hearing his voice was enough for Erberist.As for Batman, as much as he hates to admit it, deep down, yes, he thinks so too.

Usually Batman doesn't stay here for too long, he has too many things to do day and night, he always comes and goes in a hurry.But even so, the way Doctor Strange looked at him became strange day by day.

One day he couldn't help but ask: "Are you..."

Batman turned to him calmly.

"...Forget it." Doctor Strange gave up asking again, his voice was low: "I just hope you don't forget what he has done for you."

Batman said in a deep voice, "I won't."

While Batman was waiting for Constantine's reply, he was also investigating the whereabouts of the cult.Despite the secrecy with which the members of this organization operate, there is always a clue in the eyes of a master detective like Batman when Batman sets his sights on it.

Batman found the address of another event of the organization, in Brooklyn, New York.It's been a long time, nearly a year, but just to be on the safe side, Batman sends Iron Man a message, reminding him to watch out for signs of activity by those evil ones on his turf.

After sending the message, within a short while, Iron Man called:

"I saw the email you sent. Seriously, Bat, don't you think it's faster to make a call?" Iron Man's voice came from the receiver with a casual smile, making people guess whether he is in a comfortable bubble In the swimming pool, or in the banquet center, become the most eye-catching focus of the audience.

Given that Batman didn't hear any loud noises coming from beside him, the latter guess is unlikely: "Since you saw it, remember to pay attention, and let me know what you find."

"OK, OK, I'll let Jar pay attention." Iron Man said, "But I'll have to wait until I get back to New York, maybe... Let me think about it, three or four more days?"

Batman lowered one eyebrow: "Where are you now?"

"Wakanda." Iron Man said: "Don't say it, the air here is very good, you should try it when you have time."

Batman ignored his joke. The moment he heard the place name, he thought of something, and his voice dropped once: "—Zhenjin?"

"Yes, it's the African country that produces vibrating gold." Iron Man said a little shyly, "But I'm not here for vibrating gold—most of them aren't. I was invited by the king of this country."

Batman snorted lowly, motioning for him to hurry up.

"Things are a bit complicated, well, in general, King T'Challa's throne was replaced by a conspiracy by the leader of the White Ape tribe, and then, you know, my reputation is very loud, so he came to me and hoped that I could help He has taken back the throne. Now that we have succeeded, he is giving us a feast."

"You guys." Batman said with interest, "Who else but you?"

"And those two old popsicles, of course, a little bird, Dr. Hank Pym - I hope you've heard of him, he's a pretty good scientist, I have to admit - and his girlfriend, Little Hornet." Iron Man said this, and suddenly paused: "You know, although I usually think that acting alone is the best way to act, at least I will not be dragged down by those idiots, and no one is in my ear blabla... But sometimes, teamwork is good, and it's fucking cool for us to fight Hydra together."

"Sounds like nothing you'd say," Batman commented.

"Yes, yes, I admit it." Iron Man said: "So I am planning to establish an organization recently. Nick Fury's bald head came to Stark Tower a while ago and gave me a suggestion, but I think his Terrible idea - Avengers, does that sound ridiculous? I'll think of a better name for it, I swear."

He started bringing up these inconsequential topics, and Batman knew Tony must be falling into his old habits, and that was when he wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to do so.Batman had no choice but to help him: "I believe, and then?"

"And then...of course there is then, and then I want to say—do you want to get involved too?" Iron Man's voice rose unconsciously, and he spoke faster: "I am the initiator of this plan, the Alliance If you want to take the lead, I'm sure I'll save you a good spot. To be honest, I'm already planning another Avengers building - the name is in doubt, but all the members will live here, and of course you want to get back to you I have no objection to the underground cave, you can just be a non-staff member, and you can come here when you have something to do."

"...Iworkalone," Batman said, "Tony, you know how much I have to deal with every day."

"Okay, hmph, I knew you would refuse," Iron Man said quickly without pausing, as if he really didn't care at all: "I'm just afraid that no one really invites you, a bastard, as a teammate , now it seems that you don't need it either. Remember not to regret it in the future, even if you cry and beg me, I will not agree, there is only one chance."

Batman: "..."

How old are you Tony Stark.

Batman was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm sorry, Tony."

"..." The voice on the other side of the microphone paused for a moment, followed by Iron Man's fire output from embarrassment: "Let your apology eat [beep——] Go! I said it all, I just asked casually!"

He cursed again. Batman hadn't heard him curse like that for a long time, and he felt a strange sense of nostalgia.After Iron Man finished venting his anger, he remembered something else, and asked angrily, "What about Lotkea, didn't you say you had a solution last time?"

Originally, Batman wanted Lotkea to spend some time in Stark Tower, and by the way, he had time to find out where his stress response was coming from.But Erberist's return made him change his mind, and within a few days, after discovering that they were alone, Batman never mentioned it again.

"Yes," Batman said deliberately, "I already know why, he's being treated."

"So what is the reason and where is the treatment?" Iron Man said, "Is the person you found suitable? If not, I have a better one."

Batman thought he couldn't find a better wizard on Earth than the Sorcerer Supreme: "I'm sure he'd be a good fit."

"Okay," Iron Man let go, but still threatened uneasy: "You'd better make sure that similar things don't happen again next time, or I'll beat you in armor."

Batman: "..."

He believed Tony could do it.

After a few more words, they hung up the phone.Batman continued to bury his head in the affairs of Gotham. Out of his detective instincts, he kept his eyes on Oswald Copperpot. As soon as he appeared in Gotham, he made a big move.He opened an Iceberg restaurant with a very unique and magnificent decoration, which attracted many Gotham celebrities to dine.

However, after an unannounced visit by Batman, it was discovered that he was actually doing money laundering underground work in the name of Bingshan Restaurant.He even raised many thugs and made a name for himself:

"Penguin".
