Gotham Mayor Simulator

Chapter 13 Innocence

To see Sheila, Vivi didn't need to go in person. She just needed to stay in the safe room, slowly flipping through the files marked "top secret", and wait for others to bring Sheila over.

This was a girl in her teens, thin and unable to support the prison uniform, with messy black hair, staring blankly at the ground in front of her, without looking up.

They were separated by a table, and two prison guards stood behind the girl with their hands behind their backs. Sheila was not allowed to sit down.

According to the files, she had been detained for four and a half years.

Vivi stared at her: "She has no criminal record, and even if she did, she should be put in a juvenile detention center, not Blackgate Prison."

"She has special abilities, ma'am." Joseph slipped away early in the name of "treatment", and was converted to a red name before he slipped away, but Vivi didn't bother to pay attention to him. There were so many people who hated her in Gotham, and the warden who had only met her once couldn't get a number.

The one who stayed behind was the second-in-command of Blackgate Prison, a sturdy man who was too serious. It was naturally him who answered her.

"So... the law of our city is that people with special abilities are second-class citizens of Gotham? Even if they have not committed any crime, they can be caught and imprisoned directly?" Weiwei was really asking with a curious tone, because she did not open the judicial-related module, and now she could not find a place to change the law after searching the system panel.

- If there really is such a law, she hopes to directly screen all the evil criminals with special abilities in Gotham. After all, people with special abilities have no human rights, and they can be sent to be shot one by one.

But others seem to have misunderstood something.

"She is very dangerous," the second-in-command paused, leaned down and whispered to Weiwei, "...but be obedient."

So they can't release her, even if she is innocent, right?

The second-in-command thought that Weiwei could understand what he had not said. There are very few people with special abilities in the hands of the government, and the mayor can let the "rat catcher" do anything except release.

"You can go out." Weiwei nodded at the second-in-command.

A few minutes later, only Weiwei and the "rat catcher" girl were in the empty room.

"How did you get this superpower?"

-- "I don't know."

"Why don't you escape from prison?"

-- "I can't do it."

"Do you know you are innocent?"

The girl was silent for a moment, shook her head, and nodded.

Weiwei turned to the last page of the file: "Blackgate Prison seems to have had more than one large-scale prison break. At that time, no matter who wanted to leave here, it was easy. Why didn't you escape from prison?"

The girl was silent.

- Weiwei believed that the mouse catcher's ability to control mice could help her complete the main task, and the other party was an expert in the sewers, and she was likely to be used in subsequent tasks.

"She is very obedient", obviously this person can be given for free, but Weiwei wants to release her-the identity of [criminal] cannot be directly converted into [employee], she can't see Sheila's attributes, and the game planner may set a trap at this stage.

After all, it is an important main task. Even if the price is to pay the other party a salary, Weiwei wants to ensure that the main task will not be unexpected.

... This is a great concession.

But now Sheila is not cooperating. Weiwei thought for a while and said, "Go and commit a crime."

Sheila: "?"

In fact, the current imprisonment process for Sheila is not standardized, so the term of imprisonment is also vague. She is innocent and naturally cannot be convicted, so the term of imprisonment is unlimited - but if there is a clear crime, such as lifting a manhole cover or robbing someone's hot dog, the other party can be legally released after being detained.

Even if Weiwei is the mayor, she cannot release criminals casually. On the one hand, she is the mayor, not the warden, and on the other hand, there is no such option on the panel (==)

But she explained this to Sheila, and the girl looked frightened instead.

The girl nicknamed the mouse catcher stood up suddenly.

Then, the whole room was filled with rustling sounds, as if there were multiple rodents crawling around under their feet, and some of them got into the vents and made teeth grinding sounds. The quiet Sheila's eyes burned with anger as if it was real: "You deceived me!"

"You want to deceive me!"

Weiwei raised the corners of her lips instead.

——Found a breakthrough.

"You don't want to commit a crime, not even at all, why?"

A pair of rodents' scarlet eyes lit up in the filthy darkness, but the blonde woman remained calm and even clapped her hands leisurely, as if to cheer herself up. She guessed: "This is also why you don't want to escape from prison, because even if you are not a criminal, you will become a criminal if you escape from prison during detention, right?"

"Do you think it's funny--" Sheila looked directly at the woman in front of her, but the other party was nearly 1.8 meters tall in high heels, so she had to raise her head, "Do you think it's funny?"

"I'm innocent!"

[You get a side quest: The persistence of the rat catcher]

["I didn't commit a crime," Sheila firmly believes in this. She doesn't know her sentence, but she can reduce her sentence by completing the tasks assigned by the officials, so she became the most obedient "criminal" in Blackgate Prison]

[Task description: The rat catcher only accepts leaving Blackgate Prison as a non-criminal]

[Task reward: insignificant gratitude or nothing? ]

This task can be left unfinished.

The mission description explained why Sheila was "obedient" and dispelled Vivi's doubts. It seemed that she could be used directly like a tool... But that's strange!

Gamers are the kind of people who will do meaningless things for "insignificant gratitude". An obvious puzzle is placed in front of Weiwei, but she is not allowed to solve it. What's the difference between this and letting a kitten keep scratching your palm?

Who can refuse a kitten?

Weiwei smiled at her: "No, you committed a crime."

"You commanded the mice to steal information, steal keys, help some officials get the clues they want, and eliminate dissidents in Gotham... and all this is written in your file."

"Go to prison and reflect."

Weiwei waved her hand and asked the prison guard to take Sheila away with a stunned face, then looked at the map, her eyes fell on the "second in command" and the "warden", and after a while, she chose one of them.

——Sheila was pulled back to her own prison.

A double-layer cell design was chosen here, making sure that no mouse could climb in, and she couldn't do anything with the help of the mouse's power.

Why...

She knew who Anna Alec was, the new mayor, and the mice told her on the way.

Why...

She has been obedient enough and worked hard enough.

Sheila has a father who is not too bad. He is a rat catcher who works in the sewers of Gotham. His job is to catch rats. But that day, just because he faced a murder case, his father was wrongly imprisoned as a murderer. That was the darkest time in Sheila's life.

Later, his father was released from prison and committed real crimes. He arrested those officials, tortured them, and intended to spread the plague in Gotham...Then he was imprisoned again. This time, his father was not wronged.

"He has changed," said the mother before leaving, "Sheila, don't be like your father."

I can't commit a crime anyway, Sheila thought, I can't commit a crime anyway, as long as I am innocent, there will always be a day when I will be released, anyway...anyway...

"You committed a crime."

Four and a half years of prison life did not destroy her, but this sentence really destroyed the meaning of her existence.

Have I committed a crime?

"Click"

The door of the cell was opened again, but this time, the mayor stood in front of her.

Next to her was the sweaty prison warden Joseph. This big shot, who was rarely seen, stared at Sheila, then raised the tablet in his hand and began to read:

"Sheila Flanigan, you have committed a total of 17 illegal and criminal acts... all of which are accomplices. Taking all factors into consideration... you are a minor and do not have the ability to think independently... and you have served four years and seven months in prison, which will be offset-"

The man nodded at her with a complicated look: "You are acquitted."

The damn illegitimate daughter Anna Alec, just when Joseph and his men were discussing how to retaliate against this illegitimate daughter without a backstage, he received a letter of dismissal from the parliament, and there was no reason. Damn, they did not follow the procedures. It is reasonable that he should not be dismissed so casually-

However, it is just a matter of moving a finger to terminate the employment on the system panel. Weiwei just fired this guy first, then re-hired him, and then fired him again. After several ups and downs, he changed from a red name to a green name. In short, he became a temporarily obedient dog.

After seeing the word "ambition" on the second-in-command, Weiwei felt that she couldn't just let Joseph step down. It would be better to let them fight each other - after all, she would be the beneficiary.

Otherwise, why did the second-in-command stay like that when the warden left?

"Sheila," the woman stretched out her hand, her golden hair like silk in the sun, "Will you work for me?"

Sheila murmured, "I am innocent?"

"Just innocent, but it doesn't mean you are free," Weiwei thought for a while, "I will supervise you and make sure you don't commit crimes again."

Sheila stared at her and confirmed, "You will do that, right? Supervise me and ask me to complete the tasks you assign..."

It seems that this is an important choice that will affect the other party's decision, but Weiwei still nodded without hesitation.

"That's great," the girl whispered, "I agree."

[Side quest "The Mousetaker's Obsession" has been completed]

[[The Mousetaker] has become an employee of the City Hall Logistics Department, with a current salary of 2,000 gold coins per month]

[You get a side quest: Penguin's Rage]

[The Penguin has learned what happened in the City Hall, and he is very angry. Part of this anger is directed at Black Mask, and the other part is directed at you. When a certain amount of anger is accumulated, he may do something, or maybe you can do something to divert his anger? ]

[Quest reward: 0~10,000 gold coins, 20 diamonds]

[You have activated a new investment channel]

[You currently have a total of seven investment channels activated. Do you want to view all investment channels? ]

This is the "Business Investment" module. Weiwei activated this module after visiting the City Hall, but at that time she thought she didn't know Gotham well enough, and no matter what she invested in, she was not sure of making money, so it was better to put it aside for now.

Later, Weiwei discovered that not everything can be invested in, it must be something she has been exposed to. The larger the map she opens, the more directions she can choose.

This new investment channel is about——

[Become one of the shareholders of Iceberg Restaurant]

[Recommended investment amount: 500,000 gold coins]

Weiwei: “.”

Sure enough.

Wayne Group Building.

In the office on the top floor sits Tim Drake. Ever since he grew up, his adoptive father has rarely appeared in the Wayne Group. There are even rumors that Bruce Wayne is most satisfied with Tim as his heir and decided to train him. Become the real little master of the Wayne family.

Tim often laughs off these rumors, but he is indeed the one with the heaviest and busiest tasks in the family. After all, his eldest brother has gone to the next city to become a policeman.

After finishing processing the pile of documents in front of him, Tim walked to the window and wanted to move around, but his sharp eyes spotted a group of people moving not far away - opposite Wayne Tower.

A team of workers.

What is this doing?

The headquarters of Wayne Enterprises is located in the Diamond District, where every inch of land is precious. The building opposite them is the newspaper headquarters of the Gotham Gazette, Gotham's largest newspaper that keeps pace with the times. They even purchased an airship at the beginning of the year for According to the news promotion, the profit conversion rate is very good, and the investment will be earned back soon.

Now, the airship was parked on the top floor, and a group of workers were busy around it. From Tim's height, he could see clearly what was going on.

What surprised him was more than that. He saw one of the thin workers take off his hat to get some air, revealing the face of his friend Peter Parker.

Tim: "..."

Then, everyone dispersed and faced the airship with a huge cheer.

There was a new line of words painted on the airship, like a row of slogans——

[Protect the environment, take good care of public property, build a Gotham City with honest folk customs, and strive to be a hard-working, kind and good citizen. 】

The airship took off.

The workers cheered loudly again, as if they had completed some proud task.

Tim: "..."

He stared at Peter in the crowd. Although he had just separated from Peter, he felt that he needed to talk to his friend again.
