Chapter 266 Heading to Metropolis

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

During these three days, Roger did not go to the Wayne Group to be a group vice president who only needed to be signed, let alone continue his own experiment, but lived a normal couple's life with Selina.

Maybe it's because Roger is going to the Metropolis soon.

During these three days, Selina didn't go to the restaurant anymore, and stayed by Roger's side all day.

Although he spent most of his time with Selina, Roger did not forget to say hello to Bruce and tell Bruce that he was about to go to the metropolis.

In addition to saying goodbye to Bruce, he also wanted to say goodbye to Harley.

It turns out that Halle has been missing for a long time.

No one knows where Halle went, and no one can contact Halle.

Just like the clown, Harley disappeared inexplicably.

At first, Roger wondered if Halle had gone to another city to have fun.

But after asking Penguin and Carmine to investigate, he found that things were not that simple.

Harley is not alone in her mysterious disappearance.

Even Harley's best friend, Poison Ivy, is missing.

Strictly speaking, it's not just Harley and Poison Ivy who are missing.

In Gotham's underground world, many guys with "special talents" have disappeared.

Although Gotham's underground world is still bustling with vitality that other cities don't have, the mysterious disappearance of Harley and others still attracted the attention of many people.

As early as not long after Harley and the others disappeared, people had already begun to secretly investigate these disappearances.

But unfortunately, until now, no one knows what happened.

Neither Penguin nor Carmine could provide the information Roger wanted.

To find out, after saying goodbye to Bruce, Roger went to Bruce again to see if he knew something.

However, like Penguin and others, Bruce didn't know what happened.

These dangerous elements with special talents headed by Harley disappeared on a large scale within a not too long period of time.

Although Bruce, Penguin and others didn't know what happened, Roger had a guess.

Task Force X!
Also known as Suicide Squad!

The mass disappearance of Harley and others made Roger unconsciously think of this anti-hero team formed by the American government.

Although it is such a guess, Roger has no plans to find out.

After all, he and Harry had only had a few intimate relationships beyond friendship.

In layman's terms, they just did sex a few times.

Although Halle is a charming stunner, Roger has no plan to rescue Halle because it is not related to him.

Although Task Force X is not a particularly powerful anti-hero team, one thing must be admitted is that Task Force X is an anti-hero team with an official background.

For the time being, Roger has no plans to completely turn against the authorities.

More importantly, whether Harley and others were forcibly recruited into Task Force X by Amanda Waller is still only his guess.

Apart from the fact that the missing members are dangerous elements with special talents, there is no other evidence to prove this.

Although there was no way to say goodbye to Harley and study life with Harley again, Roger didn't pay much attention to this matter.

If there is fate, he believes that he will see Harley again sooner or later.

Accompanied by Selina, after spending three days of a happy but a little bit of a couple's life, Roger boarded the flight to the Metropolis.

In order to facilitate his life in the metropolis, Roger and Bruce asked for the title of president of the metropolis branch.

Although it was impossible for Bruce to hand over the full power of the Wayne Group branch of Metropolis to Roger, he didn't mind Roger using the Wayne Group's power.

Gotham is located in New Jersey on the east coast, while Metropolis is located in Delaware on the east coast.

Although they are in two different states, the distance between Gotham and Metropolis is not too far.

The plane landed at the metropolitan airport in less than half an hour.

If you are in a hurry, Roger can definitely use Flash to come over.

But now he is not in a hurry.

After leaving the airport, Roger got into the vehicle prepared by the Metropolitan Branch of the Wayne Group.

Regarding the issue of accommodation, he handed over all the issues to the local Wayne Group branch.

There is no need to do things yourself that can be handled by others.

In the comics and movies, Metropolis is the city guarded by Superman Clark.

However, here, there are far more superheroes active in Metropolis than Superman.

Wonder Woman, Cyborg, and Martian Manhunter are all resident in Metropolis.

The Flash, Aquaman, and Green Lantern also show their faces in the metropolis from time to time.

Except for Batman Bruce who doesn't come to the Metropolis very much, the rest of the Big Seven will basically appear in the Metropolis.

Of course, it is not easy to meet them.

Not to mention The Flash, he usually lives in Central City.

Compared with living on land, Neptune usually prefers to live in the sea.

As for the Green Lantern, although he is an earthling, he now spends far more time living on other planets in the universe than on the earth.

So if you want to meet a few of them, you need a little bit of luck.

After coming out of the airport, Roger had no intention of going to the metropolitan branch.

Although he now has the name of a branch president, he will not intervene in the specific work of the branch.

After getting in the car, he asked the driver to drive directly to the hotel he had booked.

Although he is not short of money now, he has no plans to buy real estate in the metropolis.

During the time he lived in the Metropolis, he would live in a hotel.

To be precise, he lived in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel.

He didn't let him book a suite in his own name, but the people in the branch office took care of it all.

After arriving at the hotel, he asked the driver and his assistant to leave the hotel directly, and completed the check-in procedures by himself.

After arriving at the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel, he first sent a text message to Selina, telling her the room number of the hotel.

Then, he took out a specially configured laptop from the different space in his body and connected it to the network.

Like Gotham, Metropolis has a black market dedicated to the underworld.

It's just that compared with the black market in Gotham, the black market in Metropolis is much smaller.

The better the security environment in a city, the smaller the size of the black market.

There are not many potential customers, and the market is certainly not that big.

After finding the black market hidden in the dark web, Roger habitually browsed the black market forums.

If you want to quickly know the news that is circulating secretly in a city, the local black market forum is a good choice.

Although the black market in the metropolis is not as developed as in Gotham, everything that should be available is available here.
