"What do you mean?" Alberto asked, reaching into his arms and taking out a pack of cigarettes.

"Literally," Carl replied. “You can think of it as an employee benefit for joining us.”

"Why?" He took out a cigarette but didn't light it, just held it in his hand.

"Well, let me explain it to you briefly," Carl replied.

"We have a team now, right, the same people you just saw. We have some ideas now, the kind that can make a lot of money."

"But it's a pity that none of us know how to run a group, a group that is aboveboard and has no criminal record, a group that has no risks and does not have to worry about exposure."

"So, I thought of you. You have education, experience, and know how to operate. You are Falconi's son. You have your father's network and can solve many problems. The most important thing is that we are a team. of."

"So you not only want me to be a mad killer, but you also want me to help you with your business." Alberto asked, "Why do you think I would help you with this?"

"You didn't reject my proposal directly, so isn't the answer to this question very clear?" Karl chuckled.

"Your father has always wanted you to stay away from his business. He wanted you to live a decent life. Now, you have an opportunity to do so."

"As yourself, you want to keep your father's legacy, even if you don't hesitate to do it yourself. Whitewashing is a good choice, and this is a good opportunity to experiment. With your successful case, what will happen next will The development will be smoother, and in the end, your father will understand you."

"At the same time, with a bright capitalist identity on the surface, your secret identity and actions will not be doubted. Just like no one will doubt that Batman's true identity is actually Bruce Wayne. ” he told a classic Gotham joke.

Alberto remained silent and dug in his pockets.

"Isn't this a win-win?" Carl asked.

A win-win situation is to let him do two jobs for me and I win twice.

Alberto took out a lighter from his pocket and lit a cigarette.

"make a deal."

Somewhere in Gotham City, a dilapidated amusement park.

This place has a long history as an out-of-service amusement park and circus. Against the backdrop of Gotham's common darkness and rain, it looks more like an open haunted house.

Overgrown with weeds and decaying facilities, it’s a perfect place for American teenagers who are not afraid of death to come and explore, and then be made into a horror movie.

"Oh, where are you?" The aging groundskeeper walked on the muddy ground with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and found the donor who was looking around. "You've taken a good look at this place. Are you sure this is the place you want?"

The man who threatened to buy this place was acting very strange. Even though it was June, he was wearing a full tuxedo suit, holding a cane, and dressed like a gentleman.

"Oh, this place is really tacky and ugly, and it is used as a toilet by homeless people." The man in a purple suit with green hair said in disgust. "The animal rocking chair is so broken that it can kill people. It can easily make a child alive or disabled."

"Oh, so you don't like it here?" he asked nervously.

"I don't like it, of course not. I'm crazy about it." The guest turned around and showed a big smile.

"Do you really want to buy this place? Is my offer too expensive?" the old man asked cautiously, following the distinguished guest step by step.

"Too expensive? Dear Sir, when I visited here just now, I already made a lot of money." He stopped in front of a damaged promotional wall. The damaged posters that were soaked by the rain were still vaguely still. Identify the original content.

"See the deformities," it read, with ugly human figures drawn on them, as if people really liked looking at them.

"Anyway, money is not a problem." He said confidently. "Not anymore."

"I'm sure you won't regret buying it. The place isn't as run-down as it looks. Some of these animal rocking chairs are quite sturdy."

In order to prove that what he said was right, the old man himself sat on one of the pink elephant seats and rocked back and forth.

“Really, this would be a great circus venue.”

It seems like he really wants to get out of this hellish place.

"Oh, you are absolutely right." The gentleman patted him on the back affectionately and said, "Thanks to your superb sales skills and clever eloquence. I am sure I want to buy this place. Let's shake hands and seal the deal."

"Oh...Okay, it's my pleasure..." The old man stretched out his hand and took the gentleman's purple-gloved hand. He felt a slight sting on his hand, but he didn't care.

"Indeed." The gentleman smiled happily. "Of course, I won't pay you a dime. Just an hour ago, my respectable friends persuaded your partners to sign over the property of this amusement park. Transfer Agreement. So this is already my property."

"I guess you're happy for me at the same time," he asked.

The old man did smile. It was a beautiful interpersonal relationship, which was enviable.

"It seems to be true. I'm so happy."

"You know what? If you knew how I was going to recreate this place, I guarantee you would be speechless with surprise. By the way, this is a lifetime guarantee."

He kept his word, and the old man really couldn't speak anymore.

"Oh, I still have to be busy renting equipment and hiring staff to help with the opening." He turned around and walked outside. "I'm leaving first, but I won't refuse guests."

"So you can stay here as long as you want."

Behind him, the old man's eyes widened and he showed a huge, deformed smile.

He won't move again.

"Ladies and gentlemen." The clown put on a purple soft hat, opened his arms, and appeared on stage. "I'm back from vacation, I hope everyone still remembers me."

In front of him was a crowd of people wearing clown masks, cheering and applauding.

"Ah...that's good, that's good." The clown stretched out his hand to signal them to quiet down. "I'm so happy to see that no one has forgotten me, unlike some old friends who found their new toys after only two weeks."

"Of course, everyone will have their own new friends. For example, I recently met a generous person who expressed his willingness to give me an amusement park as soon as we met."

The cheers and laughter started again.

"But with new friends, I am still a nostalgic person, so I hope to take this opportunity to prepare well and use it to entertain our old friends." He covered his chest and acted very sincerely.

"Now, let's wait for a while, and when the opportunity comes, we will let the city know what a real headline hot spot is."
