Gotham Dark Godfather

"The thing that really worries the citizens of Gotham is actually poverty." Zhou Hao said nonsensically with his eyes closed: "I don't know what you saw when you looked down at this city in the night sky, but for me, who grew up in the slums on the streets, In other words, poverty is all I can see. Arkham is full of unemployed workers and lacks adequate means of livelihood, so these people can only join gangs to survive in the underworld."

"This kind of thing happens in other cities as well. It's not unique to Gotham!" Bruce Wayne pointed out calmly: "There will be poor people in every city. There is nothing special about it."

Zhou Hao shook his finger when he heard this and said calmly:

"But the gap between the rich and the poor will not be as exaggerated as in Gotham. It is precisely because Gotham is full of opportunities and wealth that a large number of people continue to pour into this place. The decline of traditional industries has caused the influx of people to get nothing. With enough job opportunities, these people can only live in the slums of Arkham and become a factor of instability. ----Did you know? Although a gangster with a few hundred dollars in his pocket can make money from Arkham's On Alcatraz, recruiting seven or eight strong men and leading them to rob a few shops is enough to gain a place in Gotham's underworld."

"You don't have to talk nonsense to me about gangs. I can arrest dozens of small gangs every day that are full of dangers and eager to get ahead. I know the actual situation much better than you." Bruce Wayne said seriously.

"So, if these people have enough jobs, will they still go out with those gangsters to cause trouble for their livelihood and money? Just imagine, if Penguin or Lob can't find their younger brother, then they still have capital Do you want to control the affairs of Gotham?" Zhou Hao said directly.

"This is different. A guy like you, even if you are in the metropolis, can recruit a team of people to do evil. It has nothing to do with whether you have money or not." Bruce Wayne retorted: "You think too much about the problem. Easy! It is a hundred times more difficult to give such a large number of people the opportunity of comfortable employment than to fill Blackgate Prison."

In fact, what the two people said are the truth of Gotham. The difference is that Bruce Wayne's parents were murdered in Crime Alley, because his most intuitive feeling is the security problem in this city.

Zhou Hao, who started his career as a grassroots police officer, is very aware of the chaos and shortcomings in the slums. Although he admits that Gotham is a prosperous and luxurious place, the gap between the rich and the poor is too large, providing a breeding ground for crime. If this problem is not solved, there will always be countless people from slums rushing to join the criminal army to provide them with sufficient human resources.Therefore, even if a few gang leaders are eliminated, new villains will soon appear.

While the two old men were chatting with each other, Firefly had brought Raven to Mr. Freeze's laboratory and asked him to help deal with the injury on Raven's head.

Faced with this request, Mr. Freeze was simply angry and funny. Although he wore a white coat every day, he was actually a doctor in the field of cryogenic research. He was completely different from the doctors in the hospital.But usually this girl helps clean my laboratory, so it's naturally not easy to directly refute her face at this moment.

Fortunately, the expressionless girl's injuries were not serious. Mr. Freeze, who had been ill for a long time, had accumulated some experience while serving his wife. Naturally, he couldn't be troubled at this moment. He packed up some tools and started to work. Disinfect and clean, and then use tweezers to take out the fragments on the head. The technique is quite sophisticated and looks very skilled.

The little sister Firefly on the side looked at the two people with her head tilted. Raven had an expressionless face, and Mr. Freeze looked cold. The two guys stayed together, which directly lowered the temperature of the whole room a lot.

Although Mr. Freeze doesn't speak, his craftsmanship is pretty good.After applying the powder, wrap a clean bandage around the raven's head.

"Okay, don't wash your hair for the next few days. If you have any signs of fever or infection in the future, come back!" Mr. Freeze said so many words.Usually there are very few people coming and going in his place, let alone anyone chatting with him.

After all, as a weirdo who needs to survive in sub-zero temperatures, the only ones who dare to come into contact with him are people from the Zhou Hao faction.

"Thank you!" Raven said seriously, although the expression on his face did not change at all.

After leaving Mr. Freeze's laboratory, Little Sister Firefly was full of curiosity about Raven. She had never seen such a person before. He seemed cold and calm. In short, he did not feel the joy and anger that humans should have. funeral music.

"The doctor just now was pretty good, he was very skilled in his craftsmanship, and he didn't need to pay. Arkham couldn't find a more reliable person than this one." Little Firefly said.

"Well, he is a quiet person, but his heart is full of gentle emotions. Even through the ice, people can feel it." Raven nodded and said.Her perception is so strong that anyone can easily see through her performance.

How can Little Sister Firefly understand the twists and turns here?

"Oh? Aren't you saying that I'm nagging you?" Little Firefly said with a smile, "Don't you see that you are quite sharp-tongued!"

Hearing this, Raven was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to explain it.

But the little firefly sister was just joking, and immediately patted her shoulder and said with a smile:

"Okay, okay, I was just joking! What are your plans next?"

"This... this..." Raven hesitated for a moment and still replied calmly: "Of course I'm going home. Although my brother is a bastard, that's where I stay after all."

The little sister Firefly was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect Raven to be willing to go back to the brother who abandoned her.But after hearing these words, I felt relieved.There were two people in her family who were just waiting to die, and they only bullied her all day long.But even so, home is still home and cannot be given up so easily.

"Okay, I understand what you mean!" Little Firefly shrugged helplessly and said, "But if that guy bullies you again, come to Arkham Gang to find me, and I will help you vent your anger."

This is not a joke. Although she is only responsible for cleaning, Little Firefly's status in Zhou Hao's gang is not low. Especially after defeating Heat Wave, she was regarded as part of the main combat force by the Riddler.

A trace of fluctuation flashed across Raven's indifferent face, but it was not revealed. He just nodded and agreed.Then he left without saying a word.

The little sister Firefly looked at his bleak back, looking particularly lonely and thin.
