I haven't been a big brother for many years
Chapter 72
"Bruce?" Gordon made a puzzled voice, he knew Bruce, he shouldn't be that kind of person.But he seemed to have come here entirely of his own accord, not threatened or kidnapped.
"Let's go there after the show is over. Remember to inform Alfred." Li stopped Gordon, who was about to stand up and go to the front, but before she finished speaking, a commotion erupted on the stage.
A couple of clowns interrupted the Flying Family show by popping up before it was over, looking drunk with bottles in their hands.
Gordon and Tompkins looked at each other, wondering if it was a performance or an accident.
The clowns were dressed as the Lloyd family, and soon after they came on stage they shoved and fought with the Grayson family, brandishing wine bottles.
Shouts of terror erupted from the audience.
Gordon stood up, and he held up his police badge: "Don't move, GCPD."
Dr. Tompkins's expression did not show the helplessness of being interrupted. She smiled kindly: "Not everyone has the opportunity to see a riot in the circus, right?"
Gordon couldn't help feeling helpless about his girlfriend's big heart: "Where's Bruce?" He couldn't find Bruce Wayne when he turned his head: "You look for him first and send him back."
Lee Tompkins nodded.
……
"Feel better?" Jerome put his hand on Ryan's forehead, and touched it back and forth twice uncertainly. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Ryan had a low fever.
"En." Ryan closed his eyes tightly and nodded, at least it was much better than before.The medicine I swallowed just now seems to be working.
Jerome hesitated for a moment: "I'd better take you out to see, there is a doctor in the circus. He shouldn't mind spending a little time on you." He thought that even if he took Ryan out, his plan would not be was interrupted.
"No." Ryan tugged on his sleeve, he was too sleepy, and didn't want to get up from the bed at all.
"Okay." Jerome compromised, and he sat back on the chair again: "Then I'll wait and see if the pills work."
……
Several members of the Lloyd family and several members of the Grayson family were quickly taken to the cubicle for interrogation.
Gordon felt that there was no need to bring everyone back to the police station for interrogation in this kind of case that was just a gang fight. He just reported the situation to the police station.
Just now Li had called him and told him that she had put Bruce Wayne and another girl named Sylvie Galavan in a taxi back to Wayne Manor.
Gordon nodded, looking at the two families in front of him with some headaches.
The result of his interrogation was only the feud between their two families, and there was no other reason than that.
But he soon discovered that something was wrong, perhaps because of his intuition as a policeman.Gordon looked at the 20-year-old man named "John Grayson" in front of him. The fight was over before it started, but there were obvious bruises on his face.
There are several other youths of similar age with similar injuries on their bodies.
Gordon speculated that they might have been the spark for this "war" that had spread to the grown-ups.
"John, where did your injury come from?" Gordon knocked on the table and asked.
But the boy was not moved at all, just sat silently at the table.
Gordon changed the question: "Then do you know the reason for the conflict on the stage?"
John was still watching him silently.
Gordon clasped his hands on the table: "I'm just confirming that Lloyd has already said just now: you are jealous..."
"Damn Lloyd!" John's expression suddenly changed: "My uncle was just tricked by the snake girl! He is innocent, he didn't kill her, the people who killed her were those Lloyd who drink and lose their mind every day De." He looked very annoyed, as if he was irritated by those who were in the family feud.
Gordon's brows twitched: "Murder?" He never imagined how a fight would lead to murder.He called several police detectives who had rushed to the scene and gave some instructions.Get up and go to the head of the circus.
"Stay here, I'll be right back." He ordered John like this, and walked out of the small temporary interrogation room.
John Grayson covered the curve of his lips with his hands, watching Gordon turn and leave quietly.
……
The head of the circus looked at Gordon with a complicated expression. He never expected that he would find Snake, but in order to get rid of the suspicion, he still took Gordon to the place where Snake was placed by the circus: They still He didn't have time to bury her, so he hid her in the back of a truck in a hurry.
"When we found her in the afternoon, she was already like this. She was placed in a park not far away, and half of her body was buried in the soil. I don't know who did it."
Dr. Lee Tompkins, who had already turned back, stepped forward to examine it carefully: "I'm not too sure, but she died almost in the morning. The cause of death was that a dagger pierced her heart."
"Does she have any family?" Gordon asked, looking away.
Some complicated emotions flashed across the face of the head of the circus: "Yes, he has a son."
……
"You have a little fever." Jerome hesitated: "Come on, I'll take you to the doctor, just take a little medicine, it will be fine soon, and it won't hurt."
Jerome comforted, and he rubbed his silver-white hair that was already a little wet.
He didn't know why he treated a child who was only meeting him for the second time with such care, maybe it was because he saw himself in him, or maybe it was because he chose to believe him and help him without hesitation.
It's just that Ryan shouldn't be here.
He ignored Ryan's resistance, and simply bent down and hugged him.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Jerome's eyes darkened, and he put Ryan back on the bed, covered the quilt, and drew the curtains.He put on his coat as he instructed, "No matter what happens outside, don't come out, and don't make any noise."
People from the circus would not knock on his door. The people outside must be the police.It's just that he didn't expect that the police would come so quickly.
……
"Beware of the court of owls, always watch your travels. Peep Gotham from the shadows, hide in the attic with low walls. He is at home, and he is also in the bed and bed. Don't mention his name, the claws will You have found it."
Perhaps no one knows that the circus has been providing a steady stream of talents for the Owl Court. Many members of the circus are actually spare claws.
Including him.
John Grayson was lying on the table bored, already thinking about how to send that boy, the orphan of the Black family, to the police station.The chief also obeyed the owl court, as long as he sent the child back to the police station, the chief knew what he had to do.
As for who killed the snake girl, he has no interest at all.
His companion didn't think of it, but he thought of the child at a glance.I didn't expect that he was still alive, but his luck ended here.
What would the owl court do to him?
John Grayson smiled. He probably had two guesses.One is that they'll finish what they didn't finish two years ago, kill him.Two, they're going to make him a Talon and use him well.
After all, he thought back to the white-haired kid, his skills were not bad.
……
Gordon looked at the thinly dressed red-haired young man who looked like he had just grown up, and he couldn't bear to tell him the news of his mother's death: "Are you Jerome Valeska? I'm detective, James Gordon. "
Jerome nodded shyly and closed the door of the RV. His puzzled eyes flicked over Gordon's raised police badge and returned to his face.He met Gordon's eyes seriously.
Gordon had some regrets in his heart. The boy in front of him was probably the cowboy boy in the old TV series. He was bright and well-behaved, and he was shy like a teenager.He thinks he should be a good boy.
"Your mother she...died today."
Jerome blinked, as if he didn't hear what he said: "Sorry, Mr. Detective? What did you just say?"
Gordon sighed and repeated: "Your mother's body was found in the park this afternoon. She was murdered."
"You must have made a mistake." Jerome smiled reluctantly: "It's impossible, she left in the morning. She should be rehearsing the show backstage in the afternoon." He put his eyes on the head of the circus for help, hoping He can agree with himself.
The circus master shook his head, shattering his fantasy: "Sorry, kid. She's not there."
Gordon and Tompkins looked at each other and suggested tactfully, "Maybe you can come with us and confirm the body."
He really can't bear to let a child face this kind of thing, but maybe he should let him accept the reality.
……
"Do you know what enemy Laila has? It's the 'snake girl' you call." The young police officer asked the young man in front of him.
John Grayson shook his head: "She is kind to us, and she won't have any enemies in the circus."
The police officer seized on the key word "in the circus": "In the circus? What about outside the circus?"
John Grayson waved his hand: "How would I know, I grew up in a circus."
The police officer did not let him go, and continued to ask: "Okay, did you see any suspicious characters?"
Grayson pretended to think about it: "Today, all the people who come and go in the circus are guests, but if you have to say it, there is one person who is very suspicious."
The young police officer was instantly intrigued. He said something into the intercom and asked Grayson, "Do you know his name? Maybe what he looks like?"
John Grayson shook his head: "I don't know his name, but he looks very special, he is an albino." He thought for a while, pretending to recall the details: "He and Jerome Watson Leska seems very familiar, he is the son of the snake girl."
The author has something to say:
I'll play a little theater...Apologize
It's another day when Batman ends his patrol, only this time he has a twisted expression as he disembarks from the Batman fighter that looks like an alien spaceship.
Dick thinks his three good brothers probably know why Bruce has such a subtle expression, because anyone with eyes can see that the Batfighter, which should be black, is painted a faint pink , and a big Pinkie Pie (My Little Pony) was drawn on it, and he thought Damian couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Who did it?" Bruce pressed the throbbing veins on his forehead, and he already had the answer in his mind.
The birds of the Batman family standing in a row and Alfred Ziqi stepped back to the side, revealing Ryan who was still sitting on the sofa playing Fortnite without any sense of crisis.
Jason, who was playing with him just now, couldn't stand it anymore and poked him.
"Em? Bruce?" Ryan took off his earphones and looked at Bruce Wayne who was walking towards him with some confusion: "When did you come back?"
I don't know if it's his illusion, but he always feels that Bruce's smile today is a bit kind.
"It's nothing." Bruce smiled and picked him up.
"Wait, I can explain!" Ryan widened his eyes in horror, unable to believe that the Robins abandoned him like this.
"Of course." The arc of Bruce's lips widened: "You have a lot of time to explain."
"Master, Ryan has an early meeting tomorrow." Alfred coughed lightly and reminded.
He was answered by the sound of the master bedroom door slamming shut.
"Well... why don't you contact the secretary to cancel the meeting." Dick shrugged and suggested to Ah Fu: "Ryan probably won't be able to get out of bed today."
Damian raised his eyebrows: "Maybe he can switch to Rainbow Dash (My Little Pony) next time, at least it will be faster."
"??!"
"Let's go there after the show is over. Remember to inform Alfred." Li stopped Gordon, who was about to stand up and go to the front, but before she finished speaking, a commotion erupted on the stage.
