Gotham was not numb from the beginning. The citizens of Gotham also expected the new mayor to rectify Gotham and pull Gotham out of darkness.It's just that the resignation and tragic death of one or another mayor wiped out the faint light in their hearts.

The darkness and evil of Gotham are rooted in the heart of the city. The outside force is like a drop of water falling into the ink pool. Not only does it not have the effect of purification, but it will also stain the originally pure water black.Over time, the citizens of Gotham lost confidence and trust in forces other than Gotham, and Gotham gave birth to an extremely xenophobic group sentiment.

By convention, when the mayor of Gotham is unable to manage the city for some reason, the deputy mayor will take over as acting mayor.It’s just that on the night when the clown escaped from prison, two-thirds of Gotham’s senior officials had a meeting in the municipal building. People in the city government were either killed or injured. long job.

Several big families in Gotham and the remaining officials waited and watched for a few days. They felt that Gotham could not be without managers. They were planning to promote a few people from the remaining people so that they could transition to the general election. A transfer order was sent to them A new acting mayor was appointed.

Gotham people don't care much about the new acting mayor. Few people from outside can last for a year. Calling Batman works.

Compared with the numb citizens of Gotham, the four major families of Gotham and the leaders of the Communist Party paid more or less attention to the new acting mayor. The second day after Warlock's order was issued, his information was placed in the top management of Gotham. on the table.

Generally speaking, those who are sent to Gotham either use Gotham as a springboard to gain qualifications or abandon their sons.Warlock Dowling is obviously the former. Just from the surname "Dorian" and Stark's sudden appearance and cooperation intention, he knows that this young government newcomer has a background behind him. Of course they are willing to be the heir of the Dorian family. Investment in exchange for the asylum of senior government officials in the future.

When Warlock got off the train, he was taken to the new government building by the two remaining clerks of the Gotham City Government, where Warlock will work for the next few years.The new government building is located one kilometer diagonally opposite the original government building. In fact, it is not accurate to say that it is the new government building, because it is the government building before the bombed government building was opened.

Since Gotham has a history, government officials have been working in this building. It was not until 70 years ago that the Wayne family and the other three families donated a large sum of money to the government and built a new government building. Moved to the new building one after another, sealing up the old site.

Now the people of the Gotham City government have to restart the old building. Before the bombed building is rebuilt, the acting mayor can only work in this old building that is only six stories high.

Warlock asked the clerk about the damage caused by the explosion, which was a little better than he imagined. All the materials from 70 years ago are in the building where Warlock is now. Due to the huge amount of paper documents and the difficulty of keeping them, the mayor at that time did not require the materials to be moved together.Although the steps are a bit troublesome, no one suggested migrating the database.

Gotham followed the trend and began to use computers more than ten years ago. The information of the past 70 years has been gradually entered into the computer and can be found. It is just that some confidential documents that cannot be uploaded to the database can never be retrieved.

"Mayor Dowling, in order to welcome you, the Elliott family, the Copperpot family, the Kane family and the Wayne family jointly held a welcome banquet. I hope you can attend." The clerk put an invitation letter In front of Warlock.

Warlock glanced at the clerk, picked up the invitation and read it carefully.This banquet was held to welcome Warlock Dowling. Warlock, who had just arrived, could not refute the face of the four major families, and nodded that he would attend on time.

The power of the four major families in Gotham is intertwined. They will only unite when they face people and things outside of Gotham. This banquet is a test of etiquette. Set the tone for future cooperation.

……

Gotham at night is divided into two levels. The Burnley district and the Diamond District are brightly lit at night, as bustling and lively as New York. Crime Alley in the East Side and the slums in the South Side are breeding grounds for darkness.

As the acting mayor, Warlock Dowling certainly cannot touch the darkness at the bottom of Gotham. What he can see now is what the people who control Gotham want him to see.Warlock also has no intention of challenging the nerves of Gotham's top management on the first day. He has a lot of time to explore Gotham in the future.

The venue for the banquet is the Iceberg Restaurant, which has been a hot topic in Gotham recently.Mr. Coppert, the patriarch of the Copperpot family, found his son who had been lost for many years. With the support of the old Mr. Copott, Mr. Coppert Jr. opened the Iceberg Restaurant.People felt that he decided to hold the banquet welcoming the acting mayor at the Bingshan Restaurant in order to increase his value for his son.

"Mr. Dorian, your political ideas are very suitable for Gotham." Mr. Copperpot smiled reservedly. He originally thought that Warlock Dowling came to Gotham for gold plating. Only practical.

"You and my eldest son have similar ideas, and you are about the same age. Maybe you will have a lot of common topics." Old Mr. Coppert pulled the young man who had been following him to Warlock, " This is my son, Oswald Copperpot."

Old Mr. Copperpot's meaning was very clear. He wanted the two young people to get to know each other and open up contacts for Oswald.Oswald Cobbot has been silently following behind old Cobbot. If he hadn't been wearing a suit that was obviously hand-sewn, and the accessories on his body also had the luster of historical deposits, people couldn't help but think that he It's the waiter.

Oswald Copperpot did not have the vigor and self-cultivation cultivated by the big family, and he always bowed his head and shrunk his neck unconsciously.He was not tall in the first place, and his neck shrunk to make him look even shorter. When he raised his head, his pointed and curved nose was revealed.

Warlock could catch the mixture of inferiority and pride, jealousy and anger in him.This is the devil's favorite human being. This kind of person is very easily attracted by the devil, and it doesn't take much effort for the devil to lure them to hell.

"Hello, I'm Warlock Dowling. Nice to meet you." Volok felt that Oswald was very suitable for him. The best proof of a demon's ability is the number of people who lure humans to hell, maybe Oswald Swald would be Warlock's first target of hunting after he came to Gotham.

Oswald didn't know Warlock's positioning for him, and held Warlock's hand under the encouraging eyes of the old Cobblepot: "It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Warlock, I'm Oswald Cooper Potter, you can call me Oswald."

Oswald has been paying attention to Warlock's eyes, and did not see disdain or disgust in his eyes, so he has the courage to continue communicating with Warlock.He has always had low self-esteem because of his past experience and appearance that is different from ordinary people. After being retrieved by the Copperpot family, the sudden change of social status distorted his heart.

He was supposed to be the eldest son of the Copperpot family, but he fell to the bottom of Gotham, and he had to be the younger brother of Gotham gangsters to survive.After returning to the Copperpot family, his stepmother and two glamorous younger brothers further confirmed his sadness.

Every time he saw the disdain and disgust in the eyes of his two half-brothers, he wished that they would not exist in this world, but seeing the old Cobblepot's love for him and trying his best to make up for him, he felt sorry for his own darkness. and brutal pain.

Seeing the two young people chatting, the old Mr. Copper stepped aside with a smile. If the young people have young people's topics, it is better for him not to participate.

Compared to the warmth of the Copperpot family to Warlock, the Elliott family is much colder to Warlock.Thomas Elliot felt from the bottom of his heart that Warlock was not on the same side as him, and he didn't want to establish a friendly relationship with Warlock.Warlock Dowling would stay in Gotham for at most two years, and after two years this young and naive guy would never have any contact with Elliott again.

Warlock just shook hands with Thomas Elliott. This guy was burning with a flame of anger, and the crime of murdering his relatives had already condemned his future. He could only go to hell. Such a motley soul Warlock was not interested at all. .

Kate Kane saw the old Cobbot stepped aside, held a glass and touched Warlock: "I'm really sorry, my cousin has a sudden situation, he may come later."

Kate had regret and worry on her face: "You know, only Bruce and his old housekeeper are left in the Wayne family. The respected old man suddenly fell ill, and Bruce won't be here for a while."

The banquet was jointly organized by the four major families, and the patriarchs or heirs of the Copperpot, Elliott and Kane families all attended, only Bruce Wayne did not show up for a long time.Warlock thought that this playboy would find excuses to come late or not to come, as written in the information, but he didn't expect that this time Bruce Wayne was really stumped.

"It's not a big problem. The old man's body is more important. Although I regret that I didn't see him at this banquet, there are still many opportunities in the future."

Seeing that Warlock was not upset by Bruce's absence, Kate took the initiative to clink glasses with Warlock again.She really admired Warlock's type of men, if she didn't have feelings for men, she could have a relationship with Warlock.

If Oswald Copperpot and Thomas Elliott are the products of the dark side of Gotham, then Kane Kate may be the leftover justice of Gotham.Warlock subconsciously wanted to stay away from Kane Kate, he felt that he and this girl were not in the same camp.

Oswald is actually not very good at communicating with people, and he said stammeringly: "Mr. Dorian, I know Gotham pretty well. You can ask me anything you want to know."

Warlock remembered that the documents of the Copperpot family said that Oswald was a gangster in Crime Alley before he was recognized as part of the Copperpot family, so he must know a lot about Batman.

"Before I came to Gotham, I heard that Gotham has a lot of dark tales. I wonder if Batman is real? You know, there is such a vigilante to relieve the pressure on the police, but his existence is essentially illegal. of."

"Batman is real, I've seen him." Oswald shuddered all over. He couldn't forget the huge black shadow that fell from the sky when his boss brought him and a group of younger brothers to transport the wooden warehouse. That time he was caught Kicked out two teeth and spent half a month in Blackgate Prison before being released.

"Hey, I think I hear you guys talking about Batman, the freak who dresses up as a giant bat?"
