Chapter 33 Hush, Hold on, Keep Silent~
Night, Gotham, a certain party that only the celebrities of Gotham can attend. Today's Gotham is no longer as simple as it used to be in the daytime, and there are a large number of talents at night, or the frequency is not as frequent as before. Following the two major events, the performance of the Gotham gangsters is remarkable, and the Batman comics of the same name are popular in Gotham, and the city of Gotham is re-examined from the perspective of an outsider in the form of comics.
With the popularity of comics in Gotham, the citizens who were once obscured by the corrupt upper echelons of Gotham have gradually understood some truths that they should know. The opening of the people's wisdom, coupled with the fact that in the two major incidents, these fat-headed upper echelons were killed in waves, so that the city of Gotham has become a big phenomenon after the collapse, which is really a fucking strange thing.
As for some of Gotham's old elites who survived, as well as the upstarts who came up in these two major events, they are not as arrogant as before. There is no way, who can guarantee that when the next big event happens, will he die at the hands of his own people or be killed by aliens or foreign invaders? The people in Gotham City are simple and honest, you think this name is fake? A righteous backstab, and then dump the blame on those villains who were killed by superheroes.
Then, taking advantage of the righteousness and the general trend, you can get into the position smoothly, and if you are popular, you will say something about your wife and I will support you, and if you are popular, you will have nothing to say about the former boss’s family. . So in the current Gotham, the exchange meeting of the celebrity class is no longer just admiring each other like before, but looking for partners, striving to obtain new benefits in this ever-changing Gotham City.
And no matter how the situation in Gotham changes, the Wayne family, which has been the first family since the birth of Gotham, will always be the scene of these banquets. Although the only heir in this family is Bruce Wayne, this glamorous playboy has already proved to these classes with his wrists that as long as our Wayne family does not fail for a day, you guys will be fine. It can only be my little brother.
Just like now, Bruce Wayne, who has not yet officially announced that he already has three confidante, appears at the banquet, this playboy and billionaire in his prime becomes the favorite of all the women present. focus. Tall and muscular figure, the aura formed by staying in a high position for a long time, although the face is plain, but the first two are enough to erase the last shortcoming. Bruce, who became the focus of everyone when he appeared on the stage, is also used to this kind of look.
Ignoring the eyeballs sent by others, he went straight to the bar and ordered a glass of juice with the bartender.
"Hey, Bruce, long time no see, don't you have a few drinks now?"
The familiar tone and voice made Bruce look at the man walking towards him with a smile on his face. The same tall, healthy body, blond hair, and polite temperament matched the beauty who was hugging left and right at this time, but it was a bit romantic. Bruce also knew the man walking towards him. His name was Thomas Elliott. Like Bruce, he was also the heir to the Elliott family, the four major families that established Gotham City.
If the Wayne family is in charge of all the construction industries in Gotham City, then the Elliott family is in charge of all the medical systems in Gotham City. Whether it is public or private hospitals, there is a shadow of this family. Moreover, for Bruce, this Thomas Elliott, who is the heir of a wealthy family like himself, is also his best friend. They have known each other since childhood. Of course, it is only limited to Bruce's return to the identity of Bruce Wayne The best friend of Batman, he never told his childhood friend about Batman's secret.
The reason why I regard Thomas Elliott as my friend is because they all had similar experiences, both lost their blind date, and both of them attended each other's parents' funerals. The only reason Bruce regards him as a friend is that he is better than himself. At least, he did not fall into the darkness like himself because of these accidents, but kept the sunshine and worked hard to become the world's leading surgeon. , like his father, often went to and from the slums to do free clinics, and more importantly, he kept himself clean and only interacted with ladies at banquets. After the banquet, there was no news at all.
"No, I don't like to get drunk, and it's easy to miss things. I don't want, um, you know, to get involved in scandals." Listening to his friend's teasing, and the fiery gaze of the two ladies in his hands, He is a little impatient with the flowers.
There are already three in the family, and one is more fierce than the other. It is a bit costly to deal with the three in the family at once, so how can I have the mood to play outside. In terms of appearance, none of them can compare with those in my own family. Speaking of temperament, in my home, one is the princess of Amazon, the other is the queen of the League of Assassins, and there is a world-class thief, whoever brings it out will not blow you up. As for the posture, heh, everyone is a thousand-year-old fox. You are still waiting here for an update from Liaozhai.
Of course, he can't tell his friends these things in his heart, he can only be secretly happy in his heart. Instead, it was Bruce's friend, Thomas Elliott, who raised his eyebrows after hearing Bruce's words, and told the beauty in his arms to leave.
"Are you kidding me, Bruce, are you afraid of getting scandals? The Victoria's Secret Angel you picked up is almost the same as Xiao Li. Are you afraid of scandals? Dude, you are kidding me. Look here Ladies, they are all staring at you, waiting to have a relationship with you that has been on the news for a month."
"Don't make me laugh buddy, are they feelings? They are greedy for my body."
"Don't tell me if you see it through, Bruce, this is not like you, what? Have you really found your true destiny?"
As a close friend who has known since childhood, Thomas immediately sensed something was wrong and asked in a low voice. Bruce didn't answer, but this was the best answer, so Thomas gave Bruce a big hug and whispered in his ear.
"Congratulations, Bruce, the girl who can make you feel at ease must be in love with each other, don't miss it, people like you and me, if you miss it sometimes, you just miss it."
"I..." Looking at the sincere blessings from his friend, Bruce wanted to share his secrets with him, because this was one of the few friends he had, but at this time, the tiny earphones that had been wearing in his ears also came out. Coming to Alfred's warning about the Arkham Asylum, he retracted the words he was about to blurt out, took advantage of Thomas Elliott's turn, walked towards the crowd, and left the banquet scene under the cover of the crowd.
"I think we should celebrate, drink juice is fine too, what do you think, Bruce... hmm?" Thomas Elliott, who took the mixed juice from the bartender and was about to turn around and have a drink with his friend, also found that Bruce, who was behind him just now, has disappeared without a trace. Looking at the juice in his hand, he also drank it, and said to himself: "You really have a lot of backup, Bruce."
With such words in mind, Thomas Elliott kept his kind smile and clinked glasses with the high-class people attending the banquet.
And while this banquet was still being held, Gotham Naihe Island, Arkham Asylum, Gotham Police Chief James Gordon looked at the security guards in the corridor who were slobbering, and then looked at In the empty ward, there are smiling faces painted with blood on the walls, smoking a cigarette there.
"How's it going, Gordon."
The deep voice sounded, and Gordon, who was already familiar with the strangeness, didn't thump in his heart. He turned his head, looked at the dark knight who appeared at the door, and sighed.
"As you can see, the clown has been robbed, and the best precautionary measures have been taken. Even the powerful and powerful have let go of this, pouring resources into him to create the safest place in the world." The ward is a completely closed environment, except when it will be opened when catering, and no one touches it. With the 24-hour rotation outside, the security personnel equipped with live ammunition will conduct a naked inspection after each rotation, but he was still robbed. Even these people have become idiots."
Pointing to the security guard who was slumped on the ground and drooling at this moment, Gordon's eyebrows were almost knit together, and he had already taken all measures. Even if someone attacked by force, he could respond immediately. What's more, no one wants to let a lunatic out, everything is so beautiful, but why, the clown still disappeared.
"There has never been a saying that it is the safest. The ward is very strong, but it is not difficult to rob the clown. A topographical map, a space technology, or a space ability can do it all."
Looking at the surrounding situation, Batman immediately came to a conclusion.
"Then what's the matter with them, since they can rob him silently, why do they turn these people into idiots?"
Pointing to the security guard who was drooling on the ground, Gordon also asked curiously.
"Cheating, or, some people here happen to have some key information, related to clowns, I want their information, everyone."
"I know, people have already prepared it, how will I give it to you then?" Just as he stubbed out the cigarette butt and turned around, Gordon realized that the Batman standing behind him had disappeared again, looking at him With the few cigarettes in his pocket, Gordon thought about it and put it back again, "Oh, can't you keep him here honestly? Let him out, what benefits can you get."
With a feeling of helplessness, Gordon also asked his men to take away these demented security personnel, and then he prepared the information he needed to give Batman when the time came.
In the middle of the night in Gotham, two accidents happened at the same time, but one cannot be announced, and the other is special. Just after Batman learned that his old opponent was robbed by unknown forces again and might cause trouble, he started his own investigation, and in this late night, he was not the only one who stayed up all night.
In Uptown Gotham, Elliott Private Hospital, as the dean and attending physician, Elliott looked at several surgical instructions placed on the table, which had already been scheduled and required his surgeon or guidance. I was reviewing the deficiencies in these reports with my own unique eyes. At this moment, the lights in the office were suddenly turned off. The sudden change and the oppressive atmosphere in the air made Ellie Ott scanned the surroundings, reached under the table with one hand, and quietly drew a pistol.
"Good evening, Dr Thomas Elliott."
While Elliott was scanning the surroundings, a figure also appeared behind the screen, talking to Elliott.
"Who are you?"
"The security personnel in Arkham guarding the clowns, their medical benefits are fully provided by you. No one would have thought that a good doctor who saves the world and saves people will get what they want through ordinary experience and spiritual inquiry. I need information, on this point, I have to praise you, your disguise is really good." Ignoring Elliott's inquiry, the voice was analyzing what happened in Arkham, the clown's disappearance case The ins and outs.
"As for how to take the clown away, many people will speculate on superpowers, technology, and magic. After all, these things exist in this world. But for you, an inspection report, a scalpel, a simple The ultimate face-changing operation, if you cooperate, it will be a seamless disappearance in a secret room, you are very smart, I know what you want to say, but the inspection report that you haven't had time to destroy is here with me."
Following the narration of this mysterious figure, Elliott, who originally planned to continue acting, also put the gun under the table on the table in such a grand manner, still with the insurance on, and holding it in his hand. But the other vacant left hand raised its index finger to his mouth, and said slowly.
"It's perfect, but you know it, shhh, keep silent, keep silent~"
