The communication between Warlock and Batman was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, which caused some waves in Batman's heart at that time, and soon returned to calm.

Maybe the lake is still as calm as it used to be, but the stone that sank to the bottom of the lake will prove that something is different.

Batman didn't tell Alfred what he thought. After all, Batman never put love in his life plan, and making Gotham better might exhaust his life.

If Alfred knew that someone liked him, he would definitely use this as an excuse to urge him to fall in love, get married, have a complete family, and return to the life of ordinary people.

Bruce knew that Alfred was doing it for his own good, but he could only silently say sorry to the venerable old man in his heart, and now is not the time.Perhaps one day, when he can no longer bring fear to the night of Gotham, he will fulfill Alfred's wish, but it is more likely that he will perish on the way to hold on.

After that, Batman and Warlock never faced each other in Gotham night again, but the connection between Bruce Wayne and Warlock became closer day by day.

The Gotham media's enthusiasm for the new mayor has not disappeared, and Warlock has never resisted the reporters' coverage of him.He has done a lot of things. After these things that are beneficial to Gotham are reported by the Gotham media, every newspaper can bring a lot of positive emotions to Warlock.

Every Gotham person who has a crush on Warlock has the potential to become his believer. Warlock doesn't care about the 99 extra steps he needs to take. As long as the last step is Gotham walking towards him, he will not lose money.

But the media preferred his private life to the new mayor's policies and activities.The new mayor has a delicate face that is not inferior to Gotham baby Bruce Wayne, and the best part is that the two have become friends without knowing it.

Warlock made two friends in a very short period of time. One is Oswald Copperpot, the newly found heir of the Copperpot family, and the other is Bruce Wayne. Both of them can cause a boom in Gotham people.

"If you ask me, this new mayor is really smart, and looking at these two friends he made, he can almost make him walk sideways in Gotham."

An editor at the Gotham Daily News proofreads the latest manuscript while gossiping with colleagues at his desk.

"A young master who has just returned to the family and has no power, and a president who spends his days drinking and drinking, this will not benefit Mayor Dorian."

The editor sitting in the grid in front of the proofreading editor turned his head and interjected: "If you want me to say, this mayor still doesn't understand Gotham, look at the things he has done recently, increasing funding for orphanages, renovating Gotham Hospital , to strengthen the construction of urban infrastructure.”

"Who knows if another lunatic will come out of those places one day and blow them up."

The proofreading editor listened to the editor in front of him eloquently, lowered his head to sort out the manuscript, but there was a disdainful smile on his lips.Gotham has never been short of idiots. These people have no access to the other side of Gotham, and can only see things with the shallowest eyes.

If it weren't for his younger brother's subordinates, he wouldn't have thought that the lame and somewhat cowardly Oswald would be the penguin, the underground king of Gotham.As for Wayne, no matter how absurd and brainless Bruce Wayne is, Wayne Enterprises is one of the pillars of Gotham, as long as he says a word, countless people will lose their jobs.

The previous editor talked for a long time without getting a half-sentence response, so he typed awkwardly and turned back.

As if to cover up his embarrassment, he added: "However, he is really capable of tossing around. A few days ago, the Nelson Group submitted an application to the city government, saying that it wanted to redesign the slum area and turn it into a commercial one. park."

Turn slums into business parks? !

This news has been circulating in the slums for several days. At first, people only thought it was a rumor. There are more than 1 people living in the slums. Where can they go after the renovation?

Some people firmly believe that for the sake of social stability, the government will not allow them to be displaced by these social instability factors, and many people are anxious to ask for news to make sure their homes can be kept.

In the morning, people who don't fit in the slums either in clothes or manners appear in the slums.They are members of the Nelson Group, and they come to negotiate compensation with those who have property rights in the slums. As for those who live in unfinished buildings and abandoned houses, they don't look at them at all.

"You can't do this, this is our home." A drunk man wobbled at the bakery door and shouted into it.

The owner of the bakery came out to drive away the drunk: "Go away, don't stay at my door, you don't care what happens to my shop."

Nelson has investigated the property rights of this area long ago. Less than one tenth of the people have legal property rights. They bought their property rights at three times the market price. Compared with the income of the commercial area, these investments are nothing at all worth mentioning.

Under the lure of money, the owner of the bakery quickly signed the transfer rights. The money was enough for him to move his family to a safer area, or even leave Gotham. The future of other people in the slum had nothing to do with him.

"Did something happen?" Sitting in the bakery and putting the contract into his briefcase, Hall from Nelson's legal department asked the bakery owner suspiciously.

The boss had a big smile on his face: "It's just a bum who wants some bread, you know, he has no money to pay me."

"It's just a piece of bread." Hall shook his head, "Go and get him one, and I'll charge it."

"Oh, you really don't understand those homeless people." The bakery owner didn't move, with a bitter expression on his face, "This is not a place for kind people to stay. When I first came here, I was very kind and gave a homeless person Han, other tramps and vagrants knew about it immediately, and then swarmed over to beg for bread."

"No matter what, I'm a businessman. I can't continue my business if I give them alms with good intentions. Now I would rather give the unsold bread to orphanages and relief societies than to those homeless people, and the result is They are called black-hearted businessmen. If you have hands and feet, why can't you make some money by yourself."

The bakery owner sat on the other side of the table sighing, and it was rare for him to talk to anyone about his difficulties.

His words entered Hall's ears but changed their meaning. Hall counted the documents one by one, and only thirteen of the twenty documents prepared in advance were signed. Four property owners are not in Gotham now, and the rest The three property owners are unwilling to sell their shop anyway.

All acquisitions were a death order from the group. If those three people toasted and refused to eat fine wine, he could only put away his kindness and use coercive means.

……

It wasn't too late for Bruce Wayne to get the news. When he arrived at the slums, he saw a group of people gathering to prepare for a parade. Ms. Joyce, who was dressed as a nun, seemed to be arguing with the leader.

Ms. Joyce noticed the luxury car parked on the side of the road, sighed and said a few words to the leader, and walked towards Bruce.

"This matter shouldn't bother you." Joyce took Bruce to a small room, which was decorated as a place of prayer.

Bruce looked at the tiredness on Joyce's face, knowing that she might not have rested for a long time, and helped her sit down.

"I already know about the Nelson Group. You should have informed me earlier, maybe there is still room for maneuver. As far as I know, the government has not issued a document, indicating that this matter has not yet been finalized."

Joyce's snow-white gloves were worn out from washing, his silver hair bun was messed up, and he looked extremely tired.

"Nelson's people have acquired most of the property rights, and many people feel that the government has acquiesced in this plan." Joyce looked out the window with sad and empty eyes.

"The George family, whose family of six lived here, returned to heaven yesterday because of the fire. Six generations of their family lived here, and they were cautious because they refused to sell the house."

Joyce looked at Bruce: "A homeless child said that he saw someone sneaking around downstairs at George's house at night, and the inspector confirmed that someone set the fire on purpose."

"Whether the government passes that plan or not, people here are angry and they don't trust the government anymore."

Joyce can always see everything clearly. Time has enriched her experience, and the upbringing she has received since she was a child makes her never analyze problems from the surface.Everyone here is convinced of her wisdom, but wisdom can't suppress the anger of the group, and she can't control the current situation.

"Bruce, what's going on here has nothing to do with you. You have more important things to do, don't drag yourself into the mud." Joyce looked at the mature man in front of him, but he always felt that he was still the boy who cried and howled in the rainy night.

Bruce understood what Joyce meant, and the current situation was much worse than he imagined.

Before coming, he called Warlock and confirmed that the plan was still controversial, and that everything was done by the Nelson Group without permission.It now appears that the Nelson Group has done more than anyone imagined.

"If, I mean, the Wayne Group intervenes, it can delay for a while." Bruce was not sure at first, but after planning to say it, he felt more and more that it was a good idea.

"The Nelson Group can transform this place into a commercial area, the Wayne Group can transform this place into a residential area or something else, in short..."

Joyce shook his head to prevent Bruce from continuing: "In their hearts, the Wayne Group is no different from Nelson."

Bruce was about to say something, when he heard a commotion downstairs, and vaguely heard someone shouting, "Mayor, the mayor is here."

Bruce and Joyce stood up at the same time and rushed to the window to look down. The dilapidated window could hardly support the two of them. Bruce glanced to confirm that there were indeed several Gotham City government cars parked below, and rushed directly down building.

He didn't understand why Warlock came here suddenly, but he knew that Warlock's arrival would add to the already restless fire in the slums.

These angry people don't think that Warlock is here to solve the problem, they only think that people like Warlock and Nelson are the same.

The guards surrounded Warlock next to the car, and the outraged Gotham people surrounded him and the car, shouting angrily.

Warlock's lips have been pursed into a straight line, where too much negative emotion has gathered, attracting the dark side of Warlock's personality.He is getting more and more irritable, and the patience that he originally wanted to listen to these people's appeals is wearing away a little bit.

"Don't talk nonsense with them! They're all in the same group!" A youthful voice was very distinct in the crowd, accompanied by broken bricks flying towards Warlock.
