Chapter 252 The Female Friend With a Sword

In a charity restaurant.

Wearing static camouflage veils, Roger and Selina prepare lunch for their incoming "customers."

Although they are customers, most of them are customers who will not pay.

Because it is a charity restaurant, people who come to eat in the restaurant basically have no money.

Nor did Roger expect the restaurant to generate any income for him.

The reason why I opened such a restaurant is just to find something for myself and let Selina show her love by the way.

Selina has always had the habit of donating to charity, and most of the money she earns is donated to charity.

Although Roger has enough assets for Selina to consume, he is not very supportive of Selina's donation.

how to say.

Selina's thoughts are good, and her intentions are true, but the city of Gotham is different from other cities.

Roger does not deny that the charities chosen by Selina are charities with a good reputation and are actually doing things.

But in the city of Gotham, no matter how good the behavior is, it will more or less be related to some disgusting things.

Let's talk about corruption, enriching one's own pocket and so on.

So, Roger gave his own advice on this.

Instead of donating money to those charities, do these things yourself.

And Selina herself is also a "vagrant", she has plenty of time to do these things.

After some communication, Selina agreed with Roger's opinion.

Thus, this charity restaurant was born.

Although Selina is the nominal person in charge of the restaurant, here, even Roger, the "boss", will inevitably serve customers by himself.

Fortunately, the so-called service is to hand the prepared food to the customer, and there is no need to walk around like a waiter.

Otherwise, Roger really doesn't have much patience to stay here and work.

He is indeed here to experience life, but experiencing life does not mean that he has to make himself like a real migrant worker.

With the arrival of the lunch market, there are more and more customers in the restaurant.

According to the calculations of the previous few days, the restaurant needs to provide food for thousands of customers every day.

If it wasn't for opening a charity restaurant by myself, let alone Roger, an outsider, even Selina, who grew up in Gotham, would have discovered for the first time that there are really so many people who can't afford to eat in Gotham. .

After discovering this situation, Selina began to doubt whether the city of Gotham had a meaning of existence.

If even the residents in the city can't even have enough to eat, is the city still a city?

For her question, Roger could only shrug helplessly.

Roger is now like a robot, handing the prepared food to the customer in front of him.

Then, get a kind response from the customer.

Time passed by little by little, and the customers in the restaurant came and went in an endless stream.

Just when Roger was thinking about whether to let others replace his current job, he saw a figure that was both strange and familiar.

The guest in front of him was wearing an expensive hand-made custom suit, combed his hair neatly and shiny, and exuded the aura of "being close to a billion people" all over his body.

This man is none other than the well-known billionaire and playboy Bruce Wayne in Gotham.

"How did you come?"

After passing the high-calorie and high-sugar civilian food to Bruce, Roger asked slowly.

"I donated $1000 million to your restaurant anyway, and I always have to come over to see if you haven't really spent your money."

Bruce picked up the dinner plate, stepped aside, and answered calmly.

"Don't worry, your money will never be wasted."

While handing food to the next customer, Roger raised his right hand and pointed to a list hanging beside the restaurant door.

It was a list of donations.

Bruce's name is at the top of the list.

Behind his name, there is a golden donation amount of 1000 million US dollars.

"Come out and talk, I have something to ask you."

After speaking, Bruce took the lead and walked towards an empty seat with the dinner plate.

The charity restaurant was designed by Roger to look like a university cafeteria, with six to seven hundred seats.

Although there are many guests coming to eat now, Bruce still found a seat in the corner smoothly.

He had just sat down with a tray when Roger came over with a tray of the same food.

On the dinner plate was an oversized hamburger, a box of French fries, an oversized cup of Coke, and a few small chicken nuggets.

This is what the restaurant serves for lunch at noon today.

Everyone is the same.

After sitting down, Roger took a sip of the fat house happy water with ice cubes, and then said to Bruce: "You should have never eaten these foods, try these civilian foods, they taste quite good Not bad."

These junk foods basically have no disadvantages except that eating too much will make them unhealthy and fattening.

High-sugar and high-calorie foods cannot taste bad, which is determined by the instinct of the human body.

"You are wrong, I have eaten these things before, and more than once."

While speaking, Bruce skillfully tore open the box containing the French fries, then picked up the bag of ketchup, tore a small opening, and poured the ketchup on the torn box.

Then, he picked up a freshly baked French fries, dipped them in ketchup and ate them.

sure!
It turned out that I really ate it!

Bruce's actions proved that he had really eaten these civilian foods called junk food before.

Especially the action of tearing open the French fries box to hold ketchup, which proves this point.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Although the tables next to him were full of guests, Roger wasn't worried about what they might hear.

And even if they heard something, they couldn't have guessed that Bruce was Batman.

"It's still a court matter."

"I found a few people, but I haven't found out where the exact location is."

"What you did in the manor last time seems to have aroused their ideas. Now they have settled down completely, and it seems that they plan to stay silent for a while."

Bruce said as he ate his fries.

"This is normal. If you found them so easily, they wouldn't be able to exist in the dark for so long."

"Take your time, they've all been around for so long, it's not unacceptable to keep them around for a while."

Bruce has been unable to find the headquarters of the Court of Owls, and Roger is not surprised.

If it was that easy to find their headquarters, they wouldn't be the Court of Owls.

More importantly, after living a normal life with Selina, Roger is not so interested in the inferior version of Dionysus factor and amber gold.

After all, Dionysus factor and amber gold are just a little more exotic metals, just like vibrating gold and Ulu metal in the Marvel world.

It's great if you can get it, but if you can't get it, it doesn't matter.

"It's good if you can think like this. I'm afraid you will lose your temper and use your own way to find them."

Although Bruce didn't say it clearly, it was obvious that he meant to let Roger not make so many kills as much as possible.

After asking Carmine for these few blocks, hundreds of gangsters and gangsters died in Roger's hands.

Although Bruce didn't like these people, he still couldn't accept Roger's way of treating human life like nothing.

"Don't worry, I'm not some perverted murderer."

"Killing is just a means for me to achieve my goal, not my hobby."

"If they don't mess with me, I won't bother with them either."

Roger picked up the burger and took a big bite.

"That's fine."

Bruce nodded, picked up the burger as well, and took a big bite like Roger.

In the following time, instead of chatting about the owl court, they started chatting.

They said it was small talk, but the topics they chatted about were still criminals and gangsters.

During this process, Bruce hinted at Roger tactfully, and told him about Nightwing's current situation.

Dick did not use Nightwing's identity as a vigilante in Gotham this week.

But Roger's influence on him was not limited to this.

According to Bruce, Dick has now resigned from being a police officer.

More importantly, Dick left Gotham, and he didn't know where he came from.

Bruce tried to contact Dick, but Dick refused his contact and disappeared completely.

After listening to Bruce's narration, Roger didn't say anything.

He didn't really care what Dick was going to do.

Even if Dick intends to be an antihero from now on, that's his business.

The food on the plate is quickly eaten.

Before leaving the restaurant, Bruce lowered his voice and said to Roger: "I have a female friend with a sword who will come to Gotham in a few days. She is here to find you, and she may come to you by then."

Female friends with swords?
Hearing this, Roger immediately knew who Bruce was talking about.

Wonder Woman Diana!
Bruce's so-called friend is Wonder Woman Diana.

"Are you sure she came to see me, isn't she in Metropolis, what is she doing here?"

The Wonder Woman in this world is a bit different from what he remembered, living in the metropolis for a long time.

Like Superman, Wonder Woman is also one of the representative heroes of Metropolis.

"She did come to see you, she told me this herself."

"As for what she came to you for, I don't know, she didn't say."

Bruce said quickly.

"Okay, I'll see her then."

Although he didn't know why Wonder Woman came to find him on purpose, Roger didn't mind meeting this famous superhero.

After telling Roger that Wonder Woman would come to Gotham, Bruce had no intention of staying in the restaurant and left the restaurant directly.

Then, he drove away in the low-key black Lamborghini.

When Bruce left, Roger had no intention of continuing to work, so he put the dinner plate in the recycling area, and then came to the third floor of the restaurant.

The first floor is the dining room, kitchen, and warehouse, the second floor is the office area and auxiliary warehouse, and the third floor is his independent office area.

The third floor is nominally his office, but in fact, he arranged it like a small apartment.

After sitting down at the desk, Roger turned on the computer and logged into one of Gotham's underground forums.

After browsing through it, he quit the forum.

Although he lived a two-point and one-line life this week, he did not forget to pay attention to the situation in Gotham's underground world.

To be precise, it focuses on the situation of Harley and the Joker.

Harry didn't know where to go.

Roger hadn't seen Harley since seeing her at the hotel.

As for Harry's cell phone, it has been unable to get through, it has not been turned off, but it has not been connected.

In a way, Harley was missing now.

Roger once tried to locate Halle's cell phone, but found that Halle, who seemed crazy, acted very cautiously.

Her mobile phone not only has anti-eavesdropping and anti-location functions, but also has a proxy server set up to make intrusion extremely difficult.

Roger found several hackers, but failed to get this thing done.

Although Bruce has such an ability, Roger doesn't intend to trouble Bruce.

If Bruce locates Harley's position, with his style, he will probably put Harry in jail.

In any case, Halle had also had an intimate relationship with him, and Roger couldn't do anything like watch her go to jail.

In addition to Harley, he also specially asked people to find the whereabouts of the clown.

For this reason, he even approached Carmine and Penguin directly, and borrowed their channels to find the clown.

The result also disappointed him.

The clown's disappearance is even more thorough than Harley's. No one knows where he went.

Roger still felt a little regretful that he couldn't meet a crime king like the Joker.

Although he did not find out the whereabouts of the clown for the time being, he did not stop looking for the clown.

After exiting the underground forum, Roger leaned back in his chair, stared at the ceiling, and stared blankly.

In the evening, instead of helping out in the restaurant, he stayed on the third floor to play console games.

When the restaurant finished dinner, he drove Selina home.

In terms of efficiency, it is much more convenient to use the door fruit directly than to drive back, but neither Roger nor Selina have such an idea.

Now they are all living in the way of normal people.

The normal way to go home is to drive home.

In order not to be too conspicuous, Roger also abandoned his habit and bought an ordinary BMW instead of a luxury car or a sports car.

On the way home, Selina briefly told him about the situation of the restaurant today.

For example, how much money the restaurant has spent today, what interesting customers have been met, and so on.

Roger listened to Selina's narration, and gave some responses from time to time.

Just when they were the last few blocks before arriving home, Roger's knowledgeable domineering suddenly sent a warning.

Without any hesitation, Roger directly grabbed Selina's right hand and activated the door fruit ability.
