A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 732 Gotham City with Good Law and Order
DC World, Gotham City.

A black sports car drove across the street, and disappeared at the end of the road under the envious or jealous eyes of passers-by.

Quite a few gang members with various tattoos gathered together in twos and threes saw this scene, and their expressions showed a trace of undisguised greed.

But soon, they discovered where the road driven by the black sports car led.

As a result, the greed on everyone's faces disappeared quickly, and they continued to roam the streets as if nothing had happened.

The reason is also very simple, because the direction of the black sports car is the well-known Prince Manor in Gotham City, which makes many underworld gangsters fearful.

And living in the Prince Manor is the top mysterious family that has dominated Gotham for decades and has both black and white - the Prince family.

About three years ago, a maid who lived in the Prince Manor went out to buy, but she was molested by a group of drunken street gangsters on the way, and even wanted to move her hands and feet, so scared that the maid dropped about a thousand Cash bills around US dollars, turned around and ran back to the manor.

The gangsters burst out laughing, and then they scrambled for the banknotes scattered all over the floor.

From their point of view, this was nothing more than a normal drunk incident in Gotham City.

But on the second day, all the police forces in Gotham City were mobilized together, and together with the police in the neighboring city, all the gangsters on the surface, secretly, and even tattooed gangsters within ten blocks around Prince Manor were mobilized. People with tattoos who look like gangsters are all caught in the ring.

For a time, the police station was overcrowded, and everyone in the underworld was in danger.

Afterwards, the Prince family, who swept through the surrounding ten blocks with a thunderbolt, suddenly issued a message, asking those gangsters who molested their maids to come to the door to apologize in person.

Hearing this, all the gangsters in Gotham City laughed angrily.

They thought that the Prince family suddenly showed such powerful energy that they wanted to sweep up Gotham's underworld and replace them, and the result was to make a group of dispensable gangsters apologize to your maid?

This is too ridiculous!

The gangsters naturally don't believe this reason.

But believe it or not, the mafia bosses still mobilized their forces to find out the gangsters who molested the maid of Prince's house, and after venting their anger for being implicated for no reason on them, they took With a compensation worth 1000 million U.S. dollars, the three most prestigious underworld bosses acted as representatives, and personally came to apologize to the Prince family.

No one knows what happened to these three gangsters in Prince Manor.

They only knew that after this incident, the surrounding three blocks, including Prince Manor, became a restricted area for all gangsters in Gotham City.

And those gangsters who molested the maid of the manor disappeared completely.

Similarly, the police forces in Gotham City and surrounding cities were also withdrawn one after another, and a large number of gangsters were released. Only a small number of gangsters who happened to be committing crimes when they were arrested were turned into prison.

Many of them are quite influential gangsters on the street.

The follow-up impact of that incident is still fermenting to this day.

Therefore, after seeing the black sports car driving towards the Prince Manor, all the street gangsters lost interest in it. After all, the fat sheep is good, but if it angers the Prince family, it is really not worth it !

Of course, something like this would only happen in the surrounding neighborhoods of the Prince estate.

If it was three blocks away from the Prince Manor, everything would return to the true colors of Gotham City.

Therefore, in order to protect themselves and their property, many wealthy people would choose to settle down in the neighborhoods around the Prince Manor, which also caused the land prices within three streets around the Prince Manor to skyrocket.

But even so, the land within three streets of Prince Manor is still in short supply.

Of course, the Wayne family, one of the four major families in Gotham City, naturally has no such troubles.

Before Prince Manor was renamed Prince, they were the owners of the manor, and the current helm of the Wayne family, Thomas Wayne, lived only one block away from Prince Manor. Wayne Manor.

That night, Thomas Wayne had just finished attending a dinner hosted by the Kane family. At the moment, he was walking on the dark street with his wife Martha Wayne and son Bruce Wayne, talking and laughing all the way toward Go to Wayne Manor.

It was drizzling and the streets were dark.

Except for the sound of raindrops and the laughter of the family of three, there was no noise around.

But even so, the unsuspecting Wayne family still didn't have any worries.

Because they all know that this is a block within three streets of Prince Manor, even if it is one o'clock in the morning, there will never be any unsightly gangsters coming here to rob.

Even in order to encourage little Bruce not to be afraid of the dark, Thomas Wayne deliberately led him around, turning around some dark and damp alleys, while constantly telling interesting words and stories in his mouth to divert little Bruce. His attention, so that when he thinks of darkness in the future, he can have more good memories with laughter.

Soon, the laughter of the family of three echoed in the dark and damp street.

Little Bruce held his mother Martha in one hand and his father Thomas in the other, playing on the swing with his parents' strong arms, with a smile from the heart on his immature face.

"Don't move!"

At this moment, a low growl full of tension came from the front.

Thomas Wayne was taken aback for a moment, and quickly turned his head to look forward.

I saw a man wearing a black mask and a black peaked cap standing in the shadows, his whole body was wrapped in a black windbreaker, only showing a pair of nervous black eyes staring at the Wayne family, holding a handful of black The pistol, with its black muzzle pointed at the Wayne family.

Martha and Bruce, who was only eight years old, were frightened immediately, their expressions dazed and dull.

Thomas calmed down. He raised his hands in front of him, indicating that he was not threatening, and then took half a step forward calmly, hiding his wife and son behind him, and said as calmly as possible:

"Calm down, man, tell me what you want, maybe I can help you..."

"What do you say I want? Money, of course! Hand over all the money you have on you!"

The black-clothed gangster roared loudly, and his roar was a little broken due to excessive tension. At the same time, the black pistol kept poking forward as he roared, as if to emphasize his threat.

It can be seen that he should be robbing for the first time, and he is still a little nervous.

"Okay, okay!" Thomas frantically took out his wallet while looking at the gangster and comforted him softly, "Don't worry, I will give you all the money I have on me, so please calm down a little bit."

"I'm calm!"

The black-clothed gangster roared again, and then suddenly pointed his gun at Martha at the side, his eyes fixed on the crystal clear and fluorescent pearl necklace on Martha's neck.

"And that necklace, quick!"

"Okay! And the necklace!"

Thomas was taken aback immediately, and quickly stretched out a hand to protect his wife, while constantly winking at her.

Although Martha was also very scared, but thinking of her son beside her, she forcibly calmed down and picked up the precious pearl necklace with slightly trembling fingers.

But at this moment, the gangster in black seemed to suddenly become impatient, and stretched out his hand to pull off the pearl necklace. Countless pearls fell to the ground and rolled into the small puddles on the street while bouncing.

Martha and Bruce both startled and let out a terrified scream.

Thomas frowned, resisting the urge to grab the gun, and while taking out his wallet, he said, "Don't be so nervous, you'll get what you want...but if I'm not wrong, you should be Foreigner?"

"So what?! Throw your wallet on the ground!"

The gangster in black roared again, and turned his gun on Thomas.

Thomas quickly threw the wallet on the ground, and explained soothingly, "It's nothing, but you're not curious, why is this street so quiet, can't even see a gangster?"

"...Because Gotham City is safe?"

"..."

The corner of Thomas' mouth twitched slightly. He dared to assure that this was the funniest joke he had ever heard today.

"Of course not, it's because of the nearby Prince Manor..."

Just when Thomas was about to explain the unspoken rules around the Prince Manor, a siren suddenly sounded shrill from outside the street.

The black-clothed gangster was shocked, and his fingers could not help but pull the trigger while trembling nervously.

"Bang!!"

Huge gunshots echoed in the dark street. Thomas looked at the black-clothed gangster in astonishment, his right hand tightly covering his chest, which was rapidly smeared and enlarged by blood, and his body slowly fell down.

The gangster in black was also shocked.

But when he heard the siren sound from outside the street, the black-clothed gangster's eyes flashed fiercely, and he didn't do anything, turned his gun and pulled the trigger again.

"Bang!!"

There was another gunshot, and Martha also fell to the ground in shock.

The gangster in black picked up the wallet and half of the pearl necklace, turned around and ran away.

Only little Bruce, who was spattered all over with blood, was left standing there in a daze, looking at the fallen parents in a trance, as if he hadn't realized what happened just now.

At this moment, the gangster in black who had just run into the depths of the alley suddenly flew in backwards at a faster speed, and his body hit the dark wall in the alley heavily, scattering banknotes and pearls all over the ground.

"Pfft-"

The gangster in black spat out a mouthful of blood, and collapsed against the wall with a listless expression.

Little Bruce glanced at him blankly, then raised his head stiffly at the back of his neck, and looked at the handsome man in white who came out of the shadows and appeared there.

At this moment, the man in white was looking at him with a complex expression, and after a long time sighed softly:
"Let me guess, you should be little Bruce from the Wayne family!"
