The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 2134 Battle of Two Cities! (2)

The fusion of the two earths is not simply superimposed, because if that were the case, there would be many unreasonable things.

For example, no matter how rich the east coast of the United States is, it is impossible to support three megacities. In fact, it is incredible to have Gotham and Metropolis. Another one is really unbearable.

At the same time, there is no such thing as one replacing the other. All the differences between the two earths have been retained, and people, buildings, and various social relationships have also been moved there exactly as they were.

Then there will be a problem. Gotham and Metropolis cannot accommodate the nearly 10 million people of one more megacity, but this is actually the best solution. Just enlarge the earth a little bit.

In fact, Lucifer, who is the administrator of Doujie, has experience in this area, because the new earth of Doujie is an enlarged version of the earth. To a certain extent, this new Earth No. 1 can also be regarded as the inner part of Doujie Earth. Test version.

After enlarging, the original New York buildings can be completely packed into the two cities of Metropolis and Gotham with a little planning, and the same goes for the population.

In other words, New York is now staggered between Metropolis and Gotham, but it actually doesn’t seem strange, because Metropolis and Gotham themselves are designed based on the day and night of New York. Although each building The details are different, but the style is perfectly unified.

The biggest changes in this integration are mainly in Gotham, because the most prosperous area of ​​Manhattan only occupies a small part of New York, which is equivalent to an additional business center in the metropolis, and the other three districts are all located in Gotham. The remaining island is also closer to Gotham. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fusion of New York and Gotham.

So after experiencing such a shocking incident, what actions did people on both sides make?

Needless to say, ordinary people in these two cities really focus on a stable mental state.

After they watched their city mushrooming like mushrooms after a rain, not only more than doubling its size, but also doubling the number of people on the road, the first thing they did was to open Google Maps and check that it had not been updated in time. Make a mockery of the map.

Of course, this is only a small number of fun people. The first thing most ordinary people do is to check bus and subway lines. After all, they still have to go to work in the early morning.

What happened to urban integration? The alien spacecraft is crackling overhead and it doesn't delay work. Don't worry about who did this. If I don't check in and deduct dozens of dollars a day, how can I pay the exorbitantly expensive rent next month?

The social animals in big cities are mostly like this. For the people in these two cities who are suffering from disasters, not to mention the extra people, there are 10 million extra monkeys. The time they can watch and sigh is only It’s just those few dozen seconds waiting for the subway.

The biggest reaction was mostly from the upper-class unemployed people, because there is an obvious question: who will be the boss if the two cities merge?

A city can only have one set of government teams. It would be fine if they were across the river from each other. In the current intertwined situation, it is impossible for the mayor of New York City to point out which building in the city was originally his administrative scope. In fact, he didn't know either.

We can’t let New Yorkers come forward and claim it, right? Then no building would belong to New York.

So, at the moment when the two cities merged, this group of people who always sat at the top of the pyramid were in chaos first.

A man in a tan jacket walked through the corridor as quickly as possible and opened the slightly old office door.

"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!"

The phone was ringing again, and it kept ringing.

The man in the jacket sighed deeply, with visible fatigue on his face. As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard a deafening roar.

"James Gordon! What do you do for food?! It's been almost an hour since the disaster happened, but you haven't given me anything!!!"

Gordon sneered, half-squinted his eyes, leaned against the wall with the receiver in his hand and said, "What do you want me to give you? Oswald, my respected Mr. Mayor, everything happened as you can see." , what else do you want?"

"Legitimacy, legality, and your police cars and guns!"

"To whom? Sir."

Gordon took a sip of water and looked with some surprise at Barbara who walked into the office and handed him a water glass. However, he waved his hand to Barbara, indicating that he did not need help, and then said to the other side: "You forgot Did you say anything when you took office? The Constitution gives you legitimacy and legitimacy, and your sincere heart for the people gives you responsibility and ability."

"And now something happened, you asked me to provide you with police cars and weapons, and if I had, you wouldn't be in the mayor's office right now!"

After speaking, Gordon hung up the phone. After taking a sip of water, he sighed to his daughter and said, "If possible, I really don't want to talk nonsense to him. God bless, the mayor of this mysterious city opposite If you can quickly get the so-called legitimacy and legality, no matter how bad you are, you are still better than Penguin, right?"

Barbara opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, and finally said euphemistically: "Actually, it was Vina who asked me to come."

"What's wrong? Did something happen to her?"

"Just now, there was a power outage on Geer Street. After the technical team went to check, they found that someone had impacted the circuit system there with a current far higher than the safety threshold. I came to check the monitoring."

"Don't be stupid, my good girl." Gordon walked to his seat and sat down, started to deal with the mail, and said: "That's a cash cow for our mayor. He opened six stores there a year. Nightclubs and bars.”

"Have you seen the insurance company's car nearby? If so, it's another trick of his to defraud the insurance company. Don't worry about it. I have to check the information of my new partner first."

Barbara shrugged, walked to the seat next to her, and fiddled with the computer by herself.

"Ding-a-ling! Ding-a-ling!" The phone rang again, like an annoying cicada on a summer evening. Gordon knew who was calling without even thinking about it, so he just squinted over there. Don't intend to pay attention.

"Om - hum -"

His personal phone rang again, and Gordon looked down to see a text message appear on his screen.

"James Gordon, if you don't answer the phone, think of your daughter."

Gordon's face immediately darkened. He picked up the phone and said to the other end: "Mr. Cobot, the text message you just sent me is enough evidence of your personal threat."

"You don't understand anything at all!!!" The furious roar came again, "Those madmen who fell from the sky blew up one of my main street lines, which I spent a lot of money to do!!!"

"Yeah, for the poppy farms you hide under those bars and nightclubs. Without enough ultraviolet rays, they will die in up to three days. This is the best news I have heard this year."

Gordon heard the Penguin panting silently, and finally he spoke in a low tone: "Listen, James, we are unanimous on this matter, you can't let those hillbillies who call themselves New Yorkers in our You can do whatever you want on your territory, Gotham will not accept such provocation!”

Gordon crossed one leg over the other, flipping through the calendar and saying, "You know what? I've never marked an election date on a calendar before, but I'm planning on doing that."

"Let me see, there are only two months left before the general election, and the days are getting more and more promising."

Penguin snorted and said, "Do you really think it would be a good thing to replace me with the mayor of New York City? Why don't you go find out what attacked the shops on my street."

"Do you think the mayor who can tolerate such criminals wandering around the city will do better than me? At least I will give the gangsters enough guns to blast those who dare to cause trouble into scum!"

Penguin hung up the phone first, and Gordon looked at the calendar again. Penguin announced his candidacy for the next mayor of Gotham about two months ago. There were only two people from his party participating, and the other one was Penguin. 's subordinates.

The current opposition party sent a total of more than a dozen people to run for the election, and 11 of them died within three weeks. The rest were on vacation and sick leave. Originally, there was no suspense about this matter.

The sudden urban integration event is good news for Gordon, because obviously this city that has sprung up from the land of Gotham is also a big city like Gotham, and the party struggle here must be equally fierce.

If the other party is also an American city, then the two parties will first have a unified opinion, but regardless of whether they are in the same party or not, they are in an endless competitive relationship.

Then in the two months before the next election, assassinations will definitely occur one after another. Gordon knows the Penguin too well, and this attack may be the reason he found for the assassination.

Even so, Gordon still had to go take a look. The gang thugs Penguin had enlisted would not be spared, but there was a community school and an orphanage not far from there. The power outage was likely to affect the children's classes. Since the technical team When trouble comes, Gordon is bound to do it.

Gordon led a small team of police officers to the street where the accident occurred. As expected, he was glared at by the gangsters, but he didn't care at all. He raised the cordon with his hand and got under it.

A middle-aged black-haired woman in a technical uniform and another big man came over. Gordon walked up and patted her on the shoulder and said, "What's wrong? Vina, are you in any trouble?"

"You came quite early this time. Didn't that aquiline nose give you any trouble?" Wei Na's voice was very low. She sneezed, rubbed her nose and said, "I didn't even expect you to be able to do that." Come on, I know you're in trouble right now."

"What trouble is there?" Gordon shook his head indifferently and said, "What could be more troublesome than Bruce Wayne disappearing? What could be more troublesome than two big cities merging together?"

"You know those are some distant disasters." Vina led Gordon to the accident scene and said: "And you have imminent troubles that need to be solved."

"Look at this." Vina walked to the power distribution room, folded two fingers together, and then lightly knocked on the blackened door.

Gordon looked over and saw only darkness.

"what is this?"

"The scene of the explosion."

"There was an explosion here?"

"It's worse than that." Weina sighed and said, "A local short circuit may cause a small-scale explosion, but our mayor has spent a lot of money on the circuit here, the safety protection measures are very complete, and the wiring is well connected. Very scientific.”

"So this small explosion here was not big enough to knock out the electricity for the entire street, but the fact that it happened made me question everything I'd learned about electrical engineering over the years."

"Go on, James, find a more skilled electrical engineer. This is more than I can handle. I even doubt whether this is the jurisdiction of an electrical engineer."

"Why do you say that?"

Vina raised her chin, and Gordon looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a pair of rubber shoe footprints on the edge of darkness.
