How to start Meursault

This life is... strange.

Luca is popular as expected, maybe a little too popular.

He knew it was because the less affluent parts of the city were gray everywhere, and they would find Luca gracious and trustworthy.

He Jian didn't have many opportunities to be active on the streets before, and he didn't deal with villains much. He might have been kidnapped or taken hostage at a banquet, but since he is not a 'player', those who paid attention to the whole family also Don't pay much attention to him.

He Jian is really a nobody.

But if he works harder, Luca will soon surpass this stage.

how to say?He had accidentally honed his manipulative skills in the previous few situations where he had finally escaped the overprotectiveness of the grandparents, and now that he had enough local experience again, he could simply use the information at hand to do something about something. A little bit of hands and feet, and the situation is as docile as a pet.

Of course, he wasn't so wicked as to deliberately stir up trouble in Bruce's city—he did pretty much the opposite.

For a gang leader, there are many needs such as making profit, expanding territory, maintaining or even improving his status and reputation in the outside world.If he is more ambitious, or at least knows a little management knowledge, he will also consider the needs of his subordinates.

The conflicts between smaller gangs are basically because they do not have methods other than violence to grab benefits, and based on the rigid needs of the site, they have to compete with other gangs for resources.

In fact, this point is completely suitable even for individuals, so the poorer the area, the more vicious crimes caused by violence.

But correspondingly, if they clearly realize that there are other profit-making methods based on cooperation and are more efficient, then they will immediately change their course of action.

Luca has generously greatly improved the efficiency of intelligence circulation, and kindly helped to remove some communication barriers, sometimes using physical means to force the two sides to choose negotiation instead of war——he may destroy both sides’ stockpiles of weapons Make sure that neither party realizes that the other is as vulnerable as they are until the exchange is over.

That's right, run gangs as businesses and try to keep them in different 'stages' so that they don't need to compete directly, but need each other.

If it is a big man who has a unique life pursuit, Luca's manipulation may not be realized, but for traditional gangs, this change is simply beneficial and harmless. It not only increases profits, gains allies, but also reduces He committed a vicious crime that would be severely beaten by the vigilante police and caught.

After the 'market' is gradually formed, considering the intricate alliance relationship, it will not be so easy to start wars with other gangs casually like before.

It can be said that in addition to its profitable bottom-level model, such as drug trafficking, smuggling and protection fees are still illegal, the upper-level structure and survival mode has gradually changed in another direction.

And these changes are reflected in the street performance, that is, there are fewer gunshots at night and less blood flowing on the ground.

and reduced workloads for bats and birds.

Of course, this is not an easy task, but the big shots like to play with decent players, and they don't look down on the ants under their feet at all. In addition, He Jian used various channels to get the people who recently entered Gotham More than half of the weapons have been disposed of-mainly blowing up directly or reporting to GCPD or any vigilante. Since ordinary gangs mainly use guns and knives as weapons, they are not at the level to engage in various chemicals and High technology - under the premise of insufficient weapons, they will naturally tend to shrink and seek allies.

Then Luka triggered several reorganizations and mergers in a timely manner, turning some low-level gangs into existences that even big shots have to fight for or influence.

During the period, there was a danger that might lead to a crisis in Gotham, and He Jian’s efforts would be burned, and he mercilessly found a way to warn the bats—you can’t meddle in and change the world line casually, but it’s not right to abbreviate the story. no.Once the bat was not there, He Jian thought about it, and instead of throwing the pot directly at Robin or the oracle who stayed in Gotham, he prepared some plant potions to lure Poison Ivy over and forcefully explode the matter.

Well, working on the street is always better informed, not to mention that he himself has a lot of top-secret information that he shouldn't know at all.

As long as one day the vigilantes didn't choose to come undercover in person, He Jian was confident that he would be faster than them.

——The extremely slow growth of the world's repulsion made him feel better and at the same time motivated.

The method he chose seemed to work.

The situation in Gotham is strangely easing.

Some old friends did try to do something about it, but it was always anticlimactic and caught in advance.

The streets were also relatively calm.Bruce might think it was his fault, but Jason knew it wasn't.

If the decline in crime is due to fear or better law and order conditions, then organized crime shouldn't be on the rise.

No, it seems strange to say that it is growth. Should it be called 'industrial upgrading'?

How come guys who only know how to handle guns and knives have learned other methods?

Don't get me wrong...Jason appreciates the new model.

He himself tried for the first time to reduce the crime rate by becoming a gang boss, and to be honest, the results were quite successful, but it was a pity that he needed to kill people to maintain fear and reputation, and Bruce would never allow that.Manipulating the fight between the various gangs is next to impossible without increasing the bloodshed and violence, this is Gotham after all.

But now, those people seem to have spontaneously realized that if it's just for money, there's no need to shed so much blood—it's true that a small gang might not have been able to exist for more than a few months. The environment is difficult to be profitable.

How did this change come about?

Considering how peaceful it has been recently, Jason originally wanted to go undercover in a government organization (probably) to investigate the matter of Lazarus, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to pretend to give in and was taken away—all the time There is no particularly appropriate situation for the Red Hood to 'appear', and Timmy is said to be free enough to keep sleeping 5 hours a day.

And the other 'case' went nowhere.

Some time ago, the 'Death Knell' assassination of Russ ended in embarrassment, international scandal and Thalia's freedom. Before sneaking back to Lazarus Island, Damian reported to Bruce about the man who had been following him. .

Black hair and blue eyes.Know Damian's key.ha.

If Damian hadn't said that Lars had gotten the information that he was 'not Bruce's disciple' when he was talking with the other party, Jason might not have been too suspicious, but the attitude of deliberately refuting explained a lot of things.

He swears by his own experience of traveling on different earths, this kid who cares about Damian is definitely a kid under a bat cloak, at most he walked out on the street without wearing a uniform.

Babs checked the surveillance cameras of many places with special significance in Gotham, especially the one in front of Alfie's tomb, and found that no suspicious person appeared—not even the external surveillance of Crime Alley and the safe house. An abnormal result, if the other party really stays in Gotham.

Paranoid, suspicious, but very impulsive in some places.Well, more classic family traits, plus a hundred points.

The only new clue is based on the space-time fluctuation test. Apparently, some very inconspicuous visitors from other worlds came to Arkham where the prison break was taking place four months ago, and then decided that they needed to invade this place the next day. The world's bat computer searches for all information on Alfred's death.

Jason almost felt sympathy for the other person, if it wasn't for the fact that the person who caused this to happen had a similar background.

So far, no similar fluctuations have been retrieved for the second time, which at least shows that the other party has not left this earth, and that no other people from the same world have arrived.

Bruce's theory is that the other party may have followed Damian's footsteps and left Gotham again, but Jason is inexplicably convinced otherwise.

That guy must still be in Gotham.And it is very likely that the current abnormal situation on the street has something to do with it.

—not a disciple of Bruce.

It's possible that this explanation simply means that the other party doesn't follow Bruce's rules, and that Red Hood once didn't wear a bat on his chest.

Jason felt the need to get back on the streets and investigate.

Given that the Red Hood doesn't have a very plausible reason to show up, let's get Todd Peterson back.

He really wanted to meet someone who was actually able to peacefully manipulate Gotham's gangs. Of course, it would be even better if the other party was indeed the one who followed Damian as he guessed.

By the way, since the other party is so clearly unwilling to appear where the bat can easily see it, it is also clear that Todd Peterson will not be noticed, and he doesn't mind using his contacts in Crime Alley to Ask to see if there have been any interesting little ghosts lately.

Jason won't admit that he kind of wants to steal a lesson from the other party about how to run the gang safely.

—he might be able to find someone to laugh at Bruce with him, maybe.
