Meet the father-in-law [Comprehensive]

After hearing Hodge's words, it took several seconds for Elied to raise her head belatedly and look at him blankly.

"Ah? What did you say?"

"I said, for Bruce's safety, maybe we can ask the Flash for help. I don't want to blame the Gotham City law enforcement, but gcpd..."

Hodge thought about the performance of the Gotham Police Department in the last case, and was silent for a moment, but finally swallowed the complaint that should have been blurted out.Even if everyone knew that gcpd's performance was substandard, he couldn't say it bluntly at the moment—after all, Bruce was still in the venue, and the situation was unknown.

Elide didn't answer Hodge, nor did she continue to ask. She just bit her lip and stared at him for a moment, as if weighing in her heart.

"What? I don't think The Flash will reject you." After all, he was still driving, and Hodge could only glance at Elide distractedly, and after seeing her expression, he said flatly, "This is to save lives. good thing."

"I just think..." Elliott said hesitantly, "I'm not sure... maybe Batman wouldn't like another superhuman coming to Gotham."

This was an answer that Hodge hadn't expected at all, and he couldn't help but look at Elide twice more, with obvious surprise on his face.But he just suggested before, he is not from Gotham.For such a city with a strange painting style, the thinking logic of outsiders may not apply.

Maybe, while protecting Gotham, Batman also regards Gotham as his private property, and he excludes other people from entering the city as a "maintainer of order"... This is Gotham's business, if Ellie De has scruples, maybe his proposal is not good.

"Of course, the decision is up to you. I think gcpd has a lot of experience in this kind of thing, and they should be able to handle it. Plus you said that Batman will probably also appear-I don't think the Flash will come, and neither will Bruce." It'll be fine."

After making up his mind, Hodge immediately changed his rhetoric to comfort Elide. The latter remained in deep thought. After a long time, when Hodge thought the topic was completely over, she suddenly spoke, The voice was calm, but with a bit of determination to go all the way.

"Your proposal...maybe it works. I'll contact Flash after I get off the car."

I don't know if Elide's answer is a reluctant retreat or a sudden determination, but since she said so, as the person who made this suggestion, Hodge naturally nodded in support.It took them half an hour to drive to Quantico, and Hodge asked Elide to stay on the phone while he went upstairs to get their field bags.

After confirming that everyone rushed to the upstairs office and that the parking lot was empty, Elide took out her mobile phone and found out—Afu's number.

After a short wait, Afu's gentle and elegant voice sounded on the other end of the phone.

"Anything new, Elide?"

Elide thought about the scene where Flash and Arrow appeared together, took a deep breath and said:

"Aff, I have an idea. To be precise, it was inspired by Aaron. We can get through today's dinner in a faster and safer way. You just need to be responsible for appeasing Bruce's bad temper afterwards."

This sentence contains too much information, and Afu on the other end of the phone can't help laughing, with a bit of ridicule in his tone:

"Do you have any good suggestions? If possible, I'd love to help you deal with the aftermath."

"Maybe that Mr. B should meet some new friends. I met an interesting person in Central City. He should be free to help Elied Pennyworth save Bruce Wayne. What do you think of this proposal?" ?”

Bruce Batman Wayne really doesn't like anyone meddling in Gotham's affairs, but Gotham shouldn't be a special area separated from the whole world.It's certainly a good option to trick Flash to help Batman when he doesn't know Batman - anyway, after this time, he probably won't have the guts to come to Gotham again.

Elide silently lit a piece of wax for poor Barry in her heart.

Afu on the other end of the phone seemed to be just like Yi Lide just now, thinking seriously and repeatedly weighing the feasibility of this proposal and a series of follow-up questions that would inevitably arise. After a while, he coughed lightly and agreed in a deep voice. Elliott's proposal.

"That's a good suggestion. Please give me an answer after you make up your mind, and I will notify Dick by the way."

"As for the reaction of that Mr. B... we can discuss this issue later, can't we?"

-Gotham Halloween Dinner Scene-

The banquet scene, which was originally luxurious and charming with jewels, is now a mess. The buffet table placed on the side of the venue was overturned together with tableware and tablecloths. All kinds of desserts and snacks were scattered all over the floor. At the same time, it was evaporated by the heating in the venue, and the whole room was filled with a complex and pungent smell.

This smell is mixed with the smell of the woman's perfume and the smell of blood, making it even more unbearable.

But no one in the venue dared to complain about this. Most of the people rushed together with the robbers. No matter how pampered they were, politicians and wealthy businessmen, they were all trembling now, not even daring to breathe loudly.

I live in Gotham, who hasn't seen a few dinner robberies, but the robbers in Gotham City, whether they are so-called "super criminals" or gangsters, are all asking for money, stealing money, and killing people. The goals are clear and the means are clear.As long as you're not their enemy and you're quick enough when you take out the jewelry, most likely nothing serious will happen.Of course, every time there will be a few unlucky ones who hit the gun and are used as "chickens" to kill others, but most of them are just frightened, and then spend their money to avoid disaster.

There are so many such things, even gcpd is not surprised. If there were not members of the city government in the venue this time, they would not have heard gcpd's siren so early.

but!The robbers this time obviously took an unusual path. They were neither gangsters trying to gain momentum, nor Riddler, Penguin, or Two-Faced trying to steal money, nor were they crazy like clowns who entertained themselves insanely and treated murder as a crime. Kind of fun game.The robbers this time seemed to be unfamiliar faces, at least for everyone present, no one could remember which area of ​​Gotham and which gang they belonged to.

They planned exquisitely and were equipped with sufficient firepower. In addition to pistols and submachine guns, they also had two or three heavy machine guns, daggers and bayonets.In order to control the scene, they directly shot and killed two waiters, and then killed a young woman who couldn't stop screaming.

At this moment, the bodies of the three people were piled up in the center of the venue, with black and red blood all over their bodies, and their expressions of unrepentant death looked particularly horrifying.

The robber who was the leader didn't say anything more after shooting and killing people. They didn't search for jewels, and they didn't bring people out for execution. This completely unconventional style made everyone in the venue extremely panicked. , but no one dared to make a sound, and the entire venue was as quiet as a cemetery.

As the "VIPs" at the dinner, the mayor, the prosecutor of the Gotham Court, and several high-level government agencies were all rushed to one place, and Bruce Wayne, the chairman of the Wayne Group, and the president of Ace Chemicals Rich businessmen such as Mr. CEO Ace were driven to another place.Unlike the treatment of high-ranking government officials who are "bombed if they don't agree with each other" or "poisoned if they don't agree with each other", Wayne and Ace, who are wealthy, have obviously experienced more robberies. Even though they looked panicked, It's also much better than the average person.

After all, all the more upright criminals in Gotham City know that this kind of really rich people cannot die casually. Their wealth is touching. Their wealth is not only a reminder to bring disaster, but also a talisman to save their lives.

It's just that this time, the gang of robbers who didn't follow the routine obviously wanted to break this "convention".

The leader who had been standing behind the people answered a call. After putting the phone back into the pocket of his tactical vest, he shook the gun in his hand, walked slowly to the rich businessman, and mouthed Bruce Wayne.

The little boy who stood there immediately pulled Bruce up roughly. The latter seemed to have been so frightened that his legs and feet were weak. After getting up, he even staggered a bit, and almost sat back down again.

The man holding the gun immediately put the muzzle of the gun against Bruce's back, forcing him to stand upright and stand in front of the leader.

"Oh, the legendary Bruce Wayne, the proud son of Gotham City, the son of Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne, the light of Gotham, has long known his name!"

For the second time tonight, the boss finally spoke. He had a Russian accent, and his slurred pronunciation and drawn-out intonation made his words all the more unintelligible.He shook his head and sighed emotionally. Regardless of his expression or voice, he was as exaggerated as a third-rate actor, exuding an inexplicable and strange aura.

Compared with the way he spoke, this exclamation seemed more and more thoughtless, and people couldn't understand his thoughts at all for a while.

"You are the darling of this city, that 'lucky boy'. Since you were young, you have escaped almost every danger... Tsk tsk, do you really have such good luck?"

"It's a pity, some people are unwilling to open a small door of convenience in exchange for the lives of you dignitaries. We always have to do something to prove our attitude!"

When the leader said this, everyone in the venue understood what this "do something" is. No matter whether these people are martyrs or lunatics, they always have to use countless blood to prove their pious faith and give up for the goal in their hearts. everything.

If the blood of ordinary people is not enough to prove their attitude, then use people with higher status and worth as sacrifices on their way to pursue "truth".

"Originally, we planned to take the mayor or the judge into surgery. Since your life experience is so legendary, I would be happy to let your life have a short and powerful ending!"

After finishing these lines eloquently, the leader winked at Xiaoxiao, and people from the left and right immediately came and aimed their guns at Bruce.The man surrounded by the muzzle of the gun was trembling, his face was pale, but he had to pretend to be charming and calm.

"I have a lot of money!" Bruce roared almost hoarsely, even with a trembling voice, "No matter what you want to do! I can support you! Killing me will not do you any good!"

The leader didn't respond to Bruce, but waved his hands more resolutely. The two minions had pointed their guns at Bruce's back, but when they found that he could hardly stand due to fear, they laughed sarcastically. , one of them pushed Bruce vigorously, driving him all the way to the meeting place, standing beside the sticky pool of blood.

The boss also came over at this moment. He held up his mobile phone, which seemed to be switched to camera mode, with a sweet and twisted disgusting smile on his face, and blew a kiss at Bruce.

"Goodbye, Lucky Man—"

It was at this critical moment that the lights in the venue suddenly went dark!Just when everyone thought that tonight's plot would finally follow the routine and that they would see a certain king of Gotham City appearing in the next moment, a red and yellow lightning bolt suddenly exploded in all directions in the venue!

But in the blink of an eye, the lightning bolt disappeared, leaving only the sound of painful wailing in the venue, and the sound of guns and weapons being thrown to the ground.

The lights of the venue were all off, but the lights outside the house were brightly lit and the siren was flickering. Together with the light from the opposite building, they gathered together and cast light spots one after another along the terrace at the edge of the venue.

(See what the author has to say for the following content ← Codewords are not easy, please support the genuine version)

The author has something to say: In one of the light spots, a man in a red tights is standing.

At his feet are all kinds of guns that have been discarded all over the place. This scene strongly proves that he is the lightning bolt just now!

In a state of astonishment, the man waved at everyone in the venue. Even though his back was facing the light and he was wearing a mask, everyone could still hear a somewhat excited smile from his brisk voice. meaning:

"Hey, friends of Gotham - including the famous Dark Knight - Happy Halloween!"

Let's update~

For the people who eat melons in Gotham City, they finally experienced a wonderful robbery night that did not follow the routine, Xixi.
