Chapter 23 3 in 1
Faced with the little girl's squinted eyes and her increasingly unfriendly expression, the red hood chose to directly express her intentions (Ronika's face really looks like that man...), he wants to unify Gotham's underground industry, and clean up Batman, maybe won't kill him, but never let Batman show up in Gotham again.
He wanted to ask Ronika if she would cooperate.
After Ronika was silent for half a minute, she said quietly: "I know who Batman is. What you mean is that you want me to join hands with you to kill my own father, is your adoptive father?"
It seems to be true to say so, but why does it sound so inhuman?
The red hood was thankful that he wore the hood well so as not to reveal his complicated expression.How long has it been since Ronika knew Bruce was Batman?How many things does she know?It seems that the intelligence system behind the little girl is also very powerful.
If this is the case, their cooperation may need to be changed again,
"Do you think Gotham is better under Batman's management?" Red Hood asked seriously, looking at the dark street outside the window. This is a place where rich people live. What about Tan Street?
"Children starve to death on the streets, drugs are spread among students, mothers from red-light districts abandon their newborn babies, gangsters kill witnesses recklessly, judges use money to judge against conscience, mayors and rich People are colluding and oppressing the hardworking people at the bottom at will."
The red hood looked at his little sister: "There are still endless lunatics, beating and burning teenagers to death, ignoring the lives of ordinary people. Roni, this is where we were born and raised. I crawled out of hell, But Gotham is no different from Hell."
"It turns out that Batman can't change Gotham, and we can."
"Rely on what to change?" Ronika asked back.
The red hood smiled slowly: "For example, the Mayor Jones in your hand, and the gangster power in my hand."
This time it was Ronika who laughed. She sat on the bed, held her chin and said, "With a puppet on the table and some low-level gangsters, do you want to rule Gotham? Even I don't have one." So childish."
She spread her hands: "If you directly crush it by force, you will attract the Justice League. No matter how strong I am, I have not reached the level of fighting the entire alliance at the same time, and you can't."
"And to abide by the rules of Gotham for hundreds of years, then you have to know who really rules Gotham? It's not Jones, not Falcone, it's a family that has been intertwined in Gotham for hundreds of years, and every family , have the ability to compete with the Wayne family." Ronika said seriously: "Unless we can also get the Wayne family, we can use three prongs, plus the deterrence of assassination by force, maybe we can gain rule for a period of time right."
Even so, it is still unstable.
This information was obtained while she was brain-controlling others while paving the way for Mayor Jones.Ronika currently does not know the exact identities and information of these behind-the-scenes families, but she knows that to control a modern city, including a mayor, a few gangsters are not enough.
The red hood was stunned for a moment, but soon his breath became more gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "Then take it with the Wayne family. The old man has no other descendants, and you are the only heir."
Is this really going to kill Bruce?Ronika looked at him in surprise, how much did Jason hate her father?
"This has nothing to do with individuals, but for Gotham. I can't see the tragedies like mine continue." Red Hood clenched his gloves, "No matter what the price is, I will change her."
"Can you really do it?" Ronika stood up and walked to the young man. Because of the height difference, she had to look up at him, but her momentum was not weak at all: "Kill Bruce, take Gotham and Wayne!" The En family even wants to kill everyone who stands in the way, maybe including Ah Fu...you have to kill many, many people."
She put her pale little hand on the heart of the red hood. The latter's whole body was tense, but he controlled his vigilance to jump back, stood there abruptly, looked at the black-haired girl with a cold expression and said.
"Have you killed many, many people?" Jason, you haven't, but I have.
Killing all those who stand in the way will be very painful at first, but as more and more blood is on the hands, life becomes numbers, pain and guilt become numbness, and in the end there is no way back, and even forget your original intention .
"I don't remember many things, but Jason, I remember a long, long time ago, when you were alive, when I was young, you were not a cruel person. You looked fierce, but you would take things that were stolen. Give it to stray puppies, and treat me, a little kid with eyes above the top, with tenderness."
The girl stared at the eyes behind the red hood, pressed her beating heart, and said with a kind of sadness that didn't match her: "I believe that the essence of people will not change, even if you can kill people like hemp, then What a pain for the boys who live here."
For a moment, looking into those familiar blue eyes, Jason wanted to pour out all the pain and grievances of these years, even if the other party was younger than him, but he had a feeling that Ronika could understand him.
But this feeling was only for a moment. He thought of the cold water in the Resurrection Pool, the Joker's wild laughter before he left, and the new Robin beside Batman... He hardened his heart again.
"Don't worry about me. If you don't want to attack Bruce, then we just need to cooperate to deal with the gangsters. Although Falcone has calmed down a lot, Maroni is still arrogant. The dominance of one party will threaten you sooner or later. The Mayor Jones you want to keep." Red Hood said: "But I will give you another way of cooperation."
"The families you mentioned don't care which gangster occupies Gotham, they only care about the interests and power, which we can give for the time being. With your cooperation, most of the crimes in Gotham can be controlled, and with my assistance, Mayor Jones's Orders can only be fully implemented.”
Ronika knew that she couldn't be persuaded, so she stopped insisting. She wanted to prevent Jason from going down her old path because they were childhood friends.
She listened carefully to the other party's suggestion, and had to admit that the proposal thrown by the red hood was very attractive.The gangsters are an extremely important force in Gotham, and there are gangsters who can do a lot of things conveniently, secretly.After all, Jones is a dignified politician, and she can't be allowed to do it every time.
"Batman?" She thought that her father would blow up the gangsters of Gotham.
"Let me handle it." Red Hood said indifferently.
"Then we also need money and channels, in other words, someone needs to exchange gangster money for political funds that Mayor Jones can use."
"If I get rid of the old man, I hope you don't refuse the right to inherit." The implication of this sentence is obvious.Ronika frowned, she didn't think Jason could really kill Batman.
Besides, maybe Jason could have beaten Batman to the brink of death, but just killed Bruce... well, she had reservations.After all, Jason always felt that there was something else in his hatred for Bruce.
"Okay." Ronika agreed with the cooperation, "What should I do next?"
"Fans are not the most important thing for the batch of goods taken by Maroni." Red Hood folded his arms, and his tone was a little troubled and impatient. If it wasn't for Ronika's obstruction, this batch of goods would have been taken away long ago, "On the one hand , I’m reducing Maroni’s power and money, and driving him to a corner; on the other hand, the most valuable thing in this batch is a treasure map.”
"Ah?" The gangsters are still robbing the treasure map, are they pirates?
"During the Nazi period, when the war was about to end, some senior generals recognized Germany's failure and shipped the wealth looted from Europe to the United States. One of them arrived in Gotham. The Nazi officers at that time kept their names anonymous, hoping Get away with it, but get caught by the Gotham police chief at the time."
"The people of Gotham, heh, have been like this for many years, and they didn't tell anyone. They just wanted to snatch the treasures. As a result, the officers had already hidden these treasures, and the two had a fierce fight, and both died. This matter was After the newspapers revealed it, it became an unsolved case."
"It is said that the military officer was worried that he would encounter accidents, so he drew the location of the treasure as a treasure map, hoping to leave it to his family who was about to come to the United States, but the treasure map disappeared during the fight, and some people said that it was the first batch to arrive The police officers at the scene took it away, and the officer's family members were killed by angry people before they could leave Germany."
Seeing that Ronika seemed to be listening to a story, Red Hood couldn't help but choked, and said angrily, "This story is very famous in Gotham, go and check the newspaper information yourself."
"So, Maroni got the treasure map?" Ronika tilted her head and said, "Why does he need so much money?"
"What do you gangsters want so much money for?" Red Hood restrained the urge to roll his eyes, gangsters are gangsters, isn't it just for money?
"No, I mean, what does Maroney want to do next?" Ronika frowned.With such a large amount of money, what does Maroni want to use it for after getting it?There is so much to do.
The red hood was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I don't know yet, but this wealth will not be left to him anyway, we need to get it back, but I have other urgent matters to deal with, so you have to go personally one trip."
Well, after a day trip to Falcone's mansion, she's heading to the home of another gangster in Gotham.
But she still nodded, showing that she knew. She was also quite curious about the Nazi treasure, and even more curious about where Maroni got the treasure map and what he would do after getting so much money.
"Also." The red hood curled the corners of his mouth and said, "I know you don't care, and I know you are strong, but you don't want to be caught by the old man first, do you use something to cover your face?"
Maroni's security measures are not as good as Falcone's, this is Ronika's conclusion after wandering around.
She followed the red hood's earnest instructions (she always felt that when Jason said this, his eyes seemed to be caring like a ignorant junior), and put on a newly bought Halloween vampire cloak, and then bought a pure white one. For the mask, I glued the eye part to the lens of a one-way mirror with hot melt glue.
"It will scare people to death." Red Hood commented matter-of-factly: "A little girl wearing a black hood, a white expressionless mask, and eyes with misty eyes, you will become the new ghost legend in Gotham."
Ronika squinted her eyes. She has been doing this more and more often recently, and then added an expression to the mask with a watercolor pen without changing her face. She has learned fine art and even painted part of her hair.
"What is this?" Red Hood asked after a moment of silence.
"Crying Angel." Ronika said with nostalgia and emotion: "I met a very interesting person before. He called himself Doctor Who. He liked to tell stories to little girls, and he told this."
Although it's not a good story...
The red hood looked at the little girl whose effect was even more terrifying after wearing it, and silently swallowed the rest of the words.Well, he wasn't the one to scare anyway, it would be better to scare those gangsters to death, there are still a lot of bullets left.
Thus, there was a scene where the weeping angel patrolled the gangster's house at night, and Ronika "met love at the corner" and met the mansion staff who came to the bathroom.
The man who just came out of the men's room was wearing an exaggerated magician costume, a steampunk metal mask, a pocket watch in his jacket pocket, and was shaking water with wet hands. A few drops splashed on Ronika's clothes.
... The scene couldn't be more embarrassing for a while.
Ronika was a little annoyed. Ever since Goliath made a fuss last time, she has always restrained her eyes with force.But when the eyes were released a few hours ago, there was no such loud sound anymore, but I never thought that the function of the broken eyes was scrapped?
Being so close, she didn't even give her a warning! ! !
"Wow." The magician took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and found that it was past one o'clock in the morning, and except for the security patrolling bodyguards in the whole mansion, they were the only two people in gothic suits who met each other, "I don't remember Gotham With someone like you, am I too ignorant?"
"Hehe." Ronika said with a dry smile, "how could it be, but who makes Gotham so outstanding? Cross-dressing psychos like us basically produce a new one a week." It's all Jason Todd's fault!She will never admit that it is the reason why she bought the wrong clothes!
"What are you here for? Wait, let me guess." The magician looked at his watch decently again, tilted his head while holding his chin, and said, "You also came for that treasure map?"
"also?"
"Oh, no, no, you misunderstood. I didn't come to steal anything. I was originally a treasure hunter hired by Maroni. Otherwise, how would he find the treasure map that the Nazis had lost for decades?" the magician She spread her hands: "Look, I have a rather special ability, whether it's in recognizing people or finding things."
"Then you want to stop me?" Ronika felt that the other party was not malicious.
Sure enough, the magician shook his head: "I'm just a treasure hunter, not a guardian of treasures. If I hadn't come out to go to the bathroom, I wouldn't have encountered such troubles. Ah, damn it, I know that dinner should not be greedy Drink that beer, but that glass of cider is really, really good, and you should try it next time."
The tone of the other party was very sincere. After a moment of silence, Ronika nodded and said, "If there is a chance."
They nodded, and walked towards the opposite side, rubbing shoulders. Ronika suddenly stopped and turned back to use Sith's mind reading skills. The success rate of surprise attacks is generally higher because people are not vigilant.But unexpectedly, the original force was completely bounced off, and the latter continued walking unconsciously.
what happened?Ronika was surprised, and then activated Goliath's Eye, wanting to check what happened a few minutes later.But what I didn't expect was that when she urged the power, there was a sharp pain in her eyes. The pain was so painful that the little girl who had been tried and tested couldn't bear it. Drops of blood dripped down.
This broken eye is really broken!
The magician finally stopped this time. He didn't turn around, but tilted his head slightly, and the corner of his mouth, which was not blocked by the punk mask, raised a weird and sarcastic smile: "Little lady, peeking is not a lady's thing. Punitive."
Ronika looked at him coldly with her good eye.
But the magician didn't attack, and didn't even taunt him. He just approached the opponent, and in the guard of the latter's hair blowing up, he reached out and took out a handkerchief with a fat embroidered with a childlike innocence on it. Doodle goofy bunny.
"To find the treasure map, go to the third floor. The one in Maroni's study is fake and used to confuse thieves. It's really in the dark room at the bottom of the left corridor on the third floor. Turn the vase twice to the left, one and a half times to the right, and It can be opened in one turn." The magician whispered, seeing that Ronika was still looking at him indifferently, refusing to accept his handkerchief, he couldn't help but chuckled softly: "Don't be so fierce when you are young."
"Why?" she asked, thinking that he knew exactly what she was talking about.
"Are you asking yourself why your eyes bleed?" The magician sighed and said, "Rebound the force."
"Impossible." The Eye of Goliath once passed the Infinity Gauntlet head-on in times of crisis!A certain purple sweet potato essence confronted the power of Goliath for 3 minutes without gaining any benefits.If it weren't for Ronika's mental body that couldn't bear Goliath's full energy for a long time, maybe Tony wouldn't use that method...
Is this magician more powerful than the Infinity Gauntlet?Can the Eye of Goliath be rendered powerless?
"Let's find something early and go." The magician didn't intend to answer any more. He watched the little girl take the handkerchief timidly, and couldn't help showing a gentle and funny expression. He couldn't help touching the top of her soft head, and said seriously, "No matter who asked you to come, stay away from that person in the future. Why doesn't he come by himself for such a dangerous thing?"
Jason probably didn't expect Maroni to be able to invite such a powerful person.And the identity of this person has not been revealed in any information. It seems that Maroni hid him very well, and it is difficult to deal with the gangster who is full of scruples.
Wiping off the blood and tears with a little rabbit handkerchief, Ronnie looked at the other person's back and suddenly asked, "What's your name?"
"Are you going to talk if you can't take a peek?" The magician laughed, shook his head, but said with a good temper: "Meredith, someone once called me Merry, and I said it sounded like the word 'happy' in 'Merry Christmas' ” (Note: Merry is pronounced as Mei Rui)
In any case, I almost fell this time, and it seems that I should use this eye more cautiously.Ronika sighed. It wasn't that she relied too much on the Eye of Goliath, but that Goliath's power had never met a match in the two universes, so she was overconfident in herself.
Goliath is too strong, as if it is not the power of these world levels, but the existence of higher dimensions.It's like characters on paper fighting each other, one's skills are more powerful than the other's, but they are all two-dimensional energy. At this time, if one hand is not satisfied with this manuscript, it can directly tear it up and throw it into the trash can. It is the hierarchical crushing of the low-dimensional world by high-dimensional energy.
The magician finally left, and Ronika wiped the blood off the ground with her own napkin.As for the little rabbit handkerchief, she packed it in an evidence bag and stuffed it into the pocket of her clothes under her cloak.
The process of getting the treasure map was very smooth, so smooth that it was unbelievable for Ronika. The magician didn't lie to her at all, whether it was the dark room in the corridor or the password of the vase, which made her and Red Hood even more suspicious.
The handkerchief was taken by Red Hood for testing. Not long after, Jason came back with the news that the man named Meredith was dead in the database. He should have died three years ago in a car accident. Also sat his wife, and a pair of children.
The eldest daughter is 15 years old and the youngest son is only six years old. No one in the family escaped.What's more, the vehicle exploded at high temperature later, and the whole family was burned into coke. It is said that all the flesh and blood were burned, and only some bones remained, which caused a lot of trouble for the forensic autopsy.
"Then, it can only be said that Meredith Adams was not dead at the time." Ronika said as she drank the milk, "Or some strange power brought him back from the dead."
Hearing death and resurrection, Jason's face froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered, frowning and looking at Meredith Adams' information, and then slowly said: "Perhaps, it is really death and resurrection? "
Ronika turned to look at him.
"His wife is not American, she is Middle Eastern."
"so what?"
"Didn't I tell you how I survived?" Speaking of his own death, Jason's face became ugly, and his breath became cold and gloomy, but he continued: "In the Middle East There is a stronghold of an ancient organization, their leader can grow immortal, the secret is that he has a well water that can revive people, I came out of that pool."
"And this Meredith Adams' wife, Gilta Adams, is a local."
"Then he is related to that ancient organization?" "I don't know, I don't know." Jason interrupted, as if he didn't want to mention that organization, "In any case, the plan must continue. there."
However, unexpectedly, after Maroni's treasure map was stolen, he did not become hysterical. He even happily ignored the provocations of other forces and invested a large sum of money in a shipwreck company, planning to salvage something .
Ronika naturally knew what the other party was looking for, the treasure of the Nazis, but hasn't the treasure map been taken away?
"I knew that kid was lying to us!" Red Hood broke through the window another day, and said angrily, "Bastard, the treasure map you took away is fake! I should find a chance to kill him. "
"Two things, Jason." Ronika narrowed her eyes: "First, I still don't think Meredith Adams would do Maroney's work; second, you climb girls' ledges without saying hello— "
The little black-haired girl threw the giant Pippi shrimp pillow on the bed onto the face of the red hood, and almost missed Jason, who was leaning against it, but it was soft and naturally did not hurt. When she picked it up, The red Pippi shrimp looked at the former with a funny expression, as if silently mocking.
Red Hood: ...
"Forget it, I can't take care of Maroney for the time being." Red Hood said coldly, "The old bat has already noticed the movement here, besides, the shipwreck company is still salvaging, it is a serious company's investment, I always You can't go to that place with less than 1 people in front of all Gotham's official media, and grab the treasure that hasn't been salvaged back then?"
No clown would do such a boring thing!
With this time, how much territory can he expand.However, although Maroni's affairs can't be intervened for the time being, the good news is that after Falcone was punished last time, the whole person calmed down. , ignore" standard attitude, and other small gangsters are not Jason's opponents at all.
You ask Maroni how can he connive?Oh, Maroni is now full of treasures. Although he sent his men to chase after him, he didn't actually spend much time on Red Hood's side.
So in just one week, the Red Hood expanded its territory by more than three times.
As a result, Batman in the Batcave felt that his hair was even more bald.The matter of Goliath's eyes has not been completely resolved, and the case involving Ronika and Maliwei has not been concluded. What a monster, and Gotham has a new character, Red Hood, who is inextricably linked with the Joker.
Should he be thankful that Arkham didn't do a big breakout and make Batman's life more colorful?
Among so many things, Batman can only come one by one, a priority or something.Ronika can wait, but Goliath is not in a hurry; the alliance has Superman carrying it, and the steel frame is also assisting in communication; Maroni is just fishing for the sunken ship and is not committing a crime, so let the prophet Barbara keep an eye on it; the rest On the contrary, the red hood is more dangerous.
This red hood is not only related to clowns, but also uses extremely cruel methods. He doesn't blink his eyes when killing people, and annexed several gangs, large and small, within a week. Treasure hunting, an attempt to unify Gotham's underworld in a time of malaise.
Batman needs to "meet and see" the red hood, although the so-called "meet and see" will probably turn into hands-on, and finally he must be apprehended and summarized.
According to the informant's report, the Red Hood will appear in Xicheng District tonight, and he has his eyes on a small gang again.
In the cool breeze of hunting, you can still smell the fishy smell of the sea. The red hood puts the guns back into the holsters. Naturally, all the gang members who are still alive belong to his subordinates. He has already sent a signal to his subordinates, and there will be special people in a while Come and receive them.
"Red Hood." A familiar voice came to mind not far away, like the terminal stage of eye cancer.
Now is not the time, the Red Hood thought sullenly, it is not a good time to have a showdown with the old man, at least until he finishes cleaning up Maroni!He ran away without looking back, his tall figure jumped on the top floors of Gotham's tall buildings, his dexterity was incredible.
Batman's heart sank when he saw the man run away when he saw him.He didn't think the Red Hood was afraid of him, that's why he acted like he was running for his life.On the contrary, he felt that the other party was not afraid, and the reason for running away was that he didn't want to see him.
This also means that this is an acquaintance.
But Batman really couldn't think of any "acquaintance" who would dress up like this, because he had never fought, and the red hood usually avoided the camera very carefully, and he hadn't had a chance to analyze the opponent's fighting style.
Although there were a lot of thoughts in his mind, Batman instinctively chased after him.In terms of familiarity, no one can match his control over the topography of Gotham's tall buildings.
It should still be possible to run, Jason thought so a second ago, until he saw the oncoming girl.The whole expression froze in an instant. If it wasn't for wearing a red hood, this expression might be worth taking a photo to commemorate forever.
"Why are you here?!" Jason stared.
"Something happened to Maroni." Ronika didn't come to joke. "Your communicator has been hacked. I can only come here to inform you. I must rush there immediately."
"What?" Red Hood didn't know for a moment whether he should first care about the fact that he was hacked after meeting Batman, or ask Maroney what happened first.
"Maroni was killed, and all his subordinates were killed. I went to the scene to take a look, and they were all corpses." Not to mention how horrible and cruel the scene was, it was Ronika's heart that had been tested for a long time. .
"The police found out?" The old bat should have been notified, and it probably won't chase him anymore.
Red Hood stopped and stood with Ronika, looking at Batman across a building.Sure enough, the other party pressed the ear, as if listening to some important information.
Batman heard the message from both sides of Gordon and Barbara, looked again at the red hood on the opposite house, and his helper who had just arrived, a little girl-sized figure in a Halloween vampire cape, with a A weeping mask, however weird it looked, was looking at him.
If the chase continues like this, it may take half an hour to catch up, but Maroni's side is a big deal, and he must rush to take a look.The importance of the task was instantly reversed in his mind, and Batman took a deep look at the two of them again. He always felt that the figures of the two were inexplicably familiar, but he turned around and pulled out the hook gun, and rushed to the place where the accident happened.
Red Hood breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Ronika, "What happened?"
"Go back to the safe house and don't go to my house. Sharon brought a little boyfriend tonight. I really don't want to join in the fun." Ronika sighed and followed Jason to his safe house. As soon as the latter entered the room He dragged off his stuffy and hot hood, took a can of beer and a can of juice from the refrigerator, and threw the juice to the little girl.
It is not difficult to kill the gangster, even Ronika herself can kill Maroni.But to say who can wipe out so many gangsters overnight without any noise, without anyone hearing a scream or a roar, it is probably only the weird magician Meredith... Adams again.
It is said that Maroney's mansion and his gang strongholds are dead silent, the oil pan in the kitchen is still hot, the bread crumbs on the sausages are burnt, the beer is poured on the sofa one by one, and the TV is still playing Ball games and adult movies... but there is no one alive, not even "human".
No one found out what happened here, but occasionally a street gangster passed by and smelled the smell of blood in the air.This kid drank a little too much wine, and the dog who didn't know where he came from went to the window and took a look in. It is estimated that he will never forget this look in his life.
He was so frightened that he crawled back to find his boss, talked wildly, and then the news spread, and it grew like a weed, and even Gordon heard about it when he was on duty at the police station.
When he arrived with the policemen, he saw such a bloody scene. There were blood and flesh lumps all over the place. A few policemen who had just started to work immediately vomited. Gordon also frowned and immediately notified Bat Xia.
"I didn't see the body of Meredith Adams, he's still alive." Ronika said to Jason.
Red Hood sneered: "Then what else is there to say? He killed it."
Then he seemed to think of something, the sarcasm on his face faded away, his brows were tightly frowned, and he looked at Ronika: "Last time you met him, fortunately he didn't intend to kill or hurt you, otherwise..." Otherwise, if anything happened to Ronika, he would blame himself for the rest of his life.
Even now that Ronika is fine, Jason feels like his heart has missed a beat.His sister, his childhood friend, was almost killed by a fearsome enemy for helping him steal a treasure map.
Jason may have died once, he may have been extreme, but there was no question that he was a protector.
He used his own way to protect everything he cherished, to protect his family, to protect Ronika, to protect the children on the roadside, and to protect the innocent people in Gotham.The purpose of his killing was never really for revenge, just for protection.
"Oh, it's okay." Ronika was stunned for a while, but she didn't mind, she was really not afraid of death.Besides, it was not easy for Meredith Adams to kill her, even if the Eye of Goliath was abolished at that time, and the Force was useless.
But after all, she is a master of swordsmanship, a battle-tested warrior, and she is not so easy to kill.
"I'm worried about other things." Ronika said to Jason: "Maroni is dead, his power will be robbed, Gotham will inevitably have a bloodbath, well, I know you will take advantage of this The opportunity has taken the territory, but have you ever thought about why you want to kill Maroni now?"
The red hood was silent for a moment: "Because there is news about the salvage of the sunken ship, he wants to stir up everyone's nerves and let all the money-grubbing people compete for the Nazi treasure."
"I remember that last night, the shipwreck company salvaged a crown of the Tsarist Russian Empire from the bottom of the sea, which is priceless. With this as a bait, anyone who wants to use money to settle Gotham's political circles will frantically chase this treasure. This is him What he wanted, he was never helping Maroni, he was just using him to solve the gangsters in Gotham!" Ronika stood up.
"The treasure map we got was fake, and so was the one Maroni got. No... it should be that there is no Nazi treasure map in this world at all, and everything was made up by Riddis Adams!"
But why is this?
"Father." The youngest son, who was arguing with the eldest daughter, came over. He was playing with his beloved Superman toy, but his sister didn't want to accompany him to be a villain, obviously he was ready for even little monsters.
"I'm driving, baby," he reassured softly.
"Hey, sit down for me! Leah! Take care of your brother, little James, if you dare to crawl forward again, I'll spank your ass." The wife put on a straight face and reprimanded the child with a serious face.
He laughed twice, and excused the children: "Oh, Jill, don't be angry. Children, don't make mom lose her temper anymore. Dad doesn't want to sleep in the bathroom tonight."
His caring little padded jacket, baby daughter Liya rolled her eyes when she heard that, her father liked to joke and never was serious, although she quite liked such a father.
"Jill, everything will be fine, don't worry." The husband, who was driving, patted his wife's knee reassuringly with the other hand.He knew what Jill was worried about. He wanted to be a magician before and paid a lot of money to get him on stage.
In fact, he still made some money, but maybe he was not talented enough in this, so he still couldn't realize his dream in the end.But it doesn't matter, he was a gold medal insurance salesman before, and the company agreed that he should go back. After saving some money in a few months, he can replace all the debts he owed before.
"It's not because of this." The wife was worried. "I'm not from Gotham, but there is no big difference between the Middle East and Gotham. No one dared to owe money to the local gangsters, so I said I should ask the bank to borrow money."
"But the bank won't lend us money at all. Hey, don't worry, dear, it's just a few months of grace. I've discussed it with my cousin, and he's willing to guarantee it." He was sure that nothing would happen. , "What they want is money, they won't do anything to us, I'm a native of Gotham."
"Okay, don't make the kids nervous too." He looked in the rearview mirror
He wanted to ask Ronika if she would cooperate.
After Ronika was silent for half a minute, she said quietly: "I know who Batman is. What you mean is that you want me to join hands with you to kill my own father, is your adoptive father?"
It seems to be true to say so, but why does it sound so inhuman?
The red hood was thankful that he wore the hood well so as not to reveal his complicated expression.How long has it been since Ronika knew Bruce was Batman?How many things does she know?It seems that the intelligence system behind the little girl is also very powerful.
If this is the case, their cooperation may need to be changed again,
"Do you think Gotham is better under Batman's management?" Red Hood asked seriously, looking at the dark street outside the window. This is a place where rich people live. What about Tan Street?
"Children starve to death on the streets, drugs are spread among students, mothers from red-light districts abandon their newborn babies, gangsters kill witnesses recklessly, judges use money to judge against conscience, mayors and rich People are colluding and oppressing the hardworking people at the bottom at will."
The red hood looked at his little sister: "There are still endless lunatics, beating and burning teenagers to death, ignoring the lives of ordinary people. Roni, this is where we were born and raised. I crawled out of hell, But Gotham is no different from Hell."
"It turns out that Batman can't change Gotham, and we can."
"Rely on what to change?" Ronika asked back.
The red hood smiled slowly: "For example, the Mayor Jones in your hand, and the gangster power in my hand."
This time it was Ronika who laughed. She sat on the bed, held her chin and said, "With a puppet on the table and some low-level gangsters, do you want to rule Gotham? Even I don't have one." So childish."
She spread her hands: "If you directly crush it by force, you will attract the Justice League. No matter how strong I am, I have not reached the level of fighting the entire alliance at the same time, and you can't."
"And to abide by the rules of Gotham for hundreds of years, then you have to know who really rules Gotham? It's not Jones, not Falcone, it's a family that has been intertwined in Gotham for hundreds of years, and every family , have the ability to compete with the Wayne family." Ronika said seriously: "Unless we can also get the Wayne family, we can use three prongs, plus the deterrence of assassination by force, maybe we can gain rule for a period of time right."
Even so, it is still unstable.
This information was obtained while she was brain-controlling others while paving the way for Mayor Jones.Ronika currently does not know the exact identities and information of these behind-the-scenes families, but she knows that to control a modern city, including a mayor, a few gangsters are not enough.
The red hood was stunned for a moment, but soon his breath became more gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "Then take it with the Wayne family. The old man has no other descendants, and you are the only heir."
Is this really going to kill Bruce?Ronika looked at him in surprise, how much did Jason hate her father?
"This has nothing to do with individuals, but for Gotham. I can't see the tragedies like mine continue." Red Hood clenched his gloves, "No matter what the price is, I will change her."
"Can you really do it?" Ronika stood up and walked to the young man. Because of the height difference, she had to look up at him, but her momentum was not weak at all: "Kill Bruce, take Gotham and Wayne!" The En family even wants to kill everyone who stands in the way, maybe including Ah Fu...you have to kill many, many people."
She put her pale little hand on the heart of the red hood. The latter's whole body was tense, but he controlled his vigilance to jump back, stood there abruptly, looked at the black-haired girl with a cold expression and said.
"Have you killed many, many people?" Jason, you haven't, but I have.
Killing all those who stand in the way will be very painful at first, but as more and more blood is on the hands, life becomes numbers, pain and guilt become numbness, and in the end there is no way back, and even forget your original intention .
"I don't remember many things, but Jason, I remember a long, long time ago, when you were alive, when I was young, you were not a cruel person. You looked fierce, but you would take things that were stolen. Give it to stray puppies, and treat me, a little kid with eyes above the top, with tenderness."
The girl stared at the eyes behind the red hood, pressed her beating heart, and said with a kind of sadness that didn't match her: "I believe that the essence of people will not change, even if you can kill people like hemp, then What a pain for the boys who live here."
For a moment, looking into those familiar blue eyes, Jason wanted to pour out all the pain and grievances of these years, even if the other party was younger than him, but he had a feeling that Ronika could understand him.
But this feeling was only for a moment. He thought of the cold water in the Resurrection Pool, the Joker's wild laughter before he left, and the new Robin beside Batman... He hardened his heart again.
"Don't worry about me. If you don't want to attack Bruce, then we just need to cooperate to deal with the gangsters. Although Falcone has calmed down a lot, Maroni is still arrogant. The dominance of one party will threaten you sooner or later. The Mayor Jones you want to keep." Red Hood said: "But I will give you another way of cooperation."
"The families you mentioned don't care which gangster occupies Gotham, they only care about the interests and power, which we can give for the time being. With your cooperation, most of the crimes in Gotham can be controlled, and with my assistance, Mayor Jones's Orders can only be fully implemented.”
Ronika knew that she couldn't be persuaded, so she stopped insisting. She wanted to prevent Jason from going down her old path because they were childhood friends.
She listened carefully to the other party's suggestion, and had to admit that the proposal thrown by the red hood was very attractive.The gangsters are an extremely important force in Gotham, and there are gangsters who can do a lot of things conveniently, secretly.After all, Jones is a dignified politician, and she can't be allowed to do it every time.
"Batman?" She thought that her father would blow up the gangsters of Gotham.
"Let me handle it." Red Hood said indifferently.
"Then we also need money and channels, in other words, someone needs to exchange gangster money for political funds that Mayor Jones can use."
"If I get rid of the old man, I hope you don't refuse the right to inherit." The implication of this sentence is obvious.Ronika frowned, she didn't think Jason could really kill Batman.
Besides, maybe Jason could have beaten Batman to the brink of death, but just killed Bruce... well, she had reservations.After all, Jason always felt that there was something else in his hatred for Bruce.
"Okay." Ronika agreed with the cooperation, "What should I do next?"
"Fans are not the most important thing for the batch of goods taken by Maroni." Red Hood folded his arms, and his tone was a little troubled and impatient. If it wasn't for Ronika's obstruction, this batch of goods would have been taken away long ago, "On the one hand , I’m reducing Maroni’s power and money, and driving him to a corner; on the other hand, the most valuable thing in this batch is a treasure map.”
"Ah?" The gangsters are still robbing the treasure map, are they pirates?
"During the Nazi period, when the war was about to end, some senior generals recognized Germany's failure and shipped the wealth looted from Europe to the United States. One of them arrived in Gotham. The Nazi officers at that time kept their names anonymous, hoping Get away with it, but get caught by the Gotham police chief at the time."
"The people of Gotham, heh, have been like this for many years, and they didn't tell anyone. They just wanted to snatch the treasures. As a result, the officers had already hidden these treasures, and the two had a fierce fight, and both died. This matter was After the newspapers revealed it, it became an unsolved case."
"It is said that the military officer was worried that he would encounter accidents, so he drew the location of the treasure as a treasure map, hoping to leave it to his family who was about to come to the United States, but the treasure map disappeared during the fight, and some people said that it was the first batch to arrive The police officers at the scene took it away, and the officer's family members were killed by angry people before they could leave Germany."
Seeing that Ronika seemed to be listening to a story, Red Hood couldn't help but choked, and said angrily, "This story is very famous in Gotham, go and check the newspaper information yourself."
"So, Maroni got the treasure map?" Ronika tilted her head and said, "Why does he need so much money?"
"What do you gangsters want so much money for?" Red Hood restrained the urge to roll his eyes, gangsters are gangsters, isn't it just for money?
"No, I mean, what does Maroney want to do next?" Ronika frowned.With such a large amount of money, what does Maroni want to use it for after getting it?There is so much to do.
The red hood was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I don't know yet, but this wealth will not be left to him anyway, we need to get it back, but I have other urgent matters to deal with, so you have to go personally one trip."
Well, after a day trip to Falcone's mansion, she's heading to the home of another gangster in Gotham.
But she still nodded, showing that she knew. She was also quite curious about the Nazi treasure, and even more curious about where Maroni got the treasure map and what he would do after getting so much money.
"Also." The red hood curled the corners of his mouth and said, "I know you don't care, and I know you are strong, but you don't want to be caught by the old man first, do you use something to cover your face?"
Maroni's security measures are not as good as Falcone's, this is Ronika's conclusion after wandering around.
She followed the red hood's earnest instructions (she always felt that when Jason said this, his eyes seemed to be caring like a ignorant junior), and put on a newly bought Halloween vampire cloak, and then bought a pure white one. For the mask, I glued the eye part to the lens of a one-way mirror with hot melt glue.
"It will scare people to death." Red Hood commented matter-of-factly: "A little girl wearing a black hood, a white expressionless mask, and eyes with misty eyes, you will become the new ghost legend in Gotham."
Ronika squinted her eyes. She has been doing this more and more often recently, and then added an expression to the mask with a watercolor pen without changing her face. She has learned fine art and even painted part of her hair.
"What is this?" Red Hood asked after a moment of silence.
"Crying Angel." Ronika said with nostalgia and emotion: "I met a very interesting person before. He called himself Doctor Who. He liked to tell stories to little girls, and he told this."
Although it's not a good story...
The red hood looked at the little girl whose effect was even more terrifying after wearing it, and silently swallowed the rest of the words.Well, he wasn't the one to scare anyway, it would be better to scare those gangsters to death, there are still a lot of bullets left.
Thus, there was a scene where the weeping angel patrolled the gangster's house at night, and Ronika "met love at the corner" and met the mansion staff who came to the bathroom.
The man who just came out of the men's room was wearing an exaggerated magician costume, a steampunk metal mask, a pocket watch in his jacket pocket, and was shaking water with wet hands. A few drops splashed on Ronika's clothes.
... The scene couldn't be more embarrassing for a while.
Ronika was a little annoyed. Ever since Goliath made a fuss last time, she has always restrained her eyes with force.But when the eyes were released a few hours ago, there was no such loud sound anymore, but I never thought that the function of the broken eyes was scrapped?
Being so close, she didn't even give her a warning! ! !
"Wow." The magician took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and found that it was past one o'clock in the morning, and except for the security patrolling bodyguards in the whole mansion, they were the only two people in gothic suits who met each other, "I don't remember Gotham With someone like you, am I too ignorant?"
"Hehe." Ronika said with a dry smile, "how could it be, but who makes Gotham so outstanding? Cross-dressing psychos like us basically produce a new one a week." It's all Jason Todd's fault!She will never admit that it is the reason why she bought the wrong clothes!
"What are you here for? Wait, let me guess." The magician looked at his watch decently again, tilted his head while holding his chin, and said, "You also came for that treasure map?"
"also?"
"Oh, no, no, you misunderstood. I didn't come to steal anything. I was originally a treasure hunter hired by Maroni. Otherwise, how would he find the treasure map that the Nazis had lost for decades?" the magician She spread her hands: "Look, I have a rather special ability, whether it's in recognizing people or finding things."
"Then you want to stop me?" Ronika felt that the other party was not malicious.
Sure enough, the magician shook his head: "I'm just a treasure hunter, not a guardian of treasures. If I hadn't come out to go to the bathroom, I wouldn't have encountered such troubles. Ah, damn it, I know that dinner should not be greedy Drink that beer, but that glass of cider is really, really good, and you should try it next time."
The tone of the other party was very sincere. After a moment of silence, Ronika nodded and said, "If there is a chance."
They nodded, and walked towards the opposite side, rubbing shoulders. Ronika suddenly stopped and turned back to use Sith's mind reading skills. The success rate of surprise attacks is generally higher because people are not vigilant.But unexpectedly, the original force was completely bounced off, and the latter continued walking unconsciously.
what happened?Ronika was surprised, and then activated Goliath's Eye, wanting to check what happened a few minutes later.But what I didn't expect was that when she urged the power, there was a sharp pain in her eyes. The pain was so painful that the little girl who had been tried and tested couldn't bear it. Drops of blood dripped down.
This broken eye is really broken!
The magician finally stopped this time. He didn't turn around, but tilted his head slightly, and the corner of his mouth, which was not blocked by the punk mask, raised a weird and sarcastic smile: "Little lady, peeking is not a lady's thing. Punitive."
Ronika looked at him coldly with her good eye.
But the magician didn't attack, and didn't even taunt him. He just approached the opponent, and in the guard of the latter's hair blowing up, he reached out and took out a handkerchief with a fat embroidered with a childlike innocence on it. Doodle goofy bunny.
"To find the treasure map, go to the third floor. The one in Maroni's study is fake and used to confuse thieves. It's really in the dark room at the bottom of the left corridor on the third floor. Turn the vase twice to the left, one and a half times to the right, and It can be opened in one turn." The magician whispered, seeing that Ronika was still looking at him indifferently, refusing to accept his handkerchief, he couldn't help but chuckled softly: "Don't be so fierce when you are young."
"Why?" she asked, thinking that he knew exactly what she was talking about.
"Are you asking yourself why your eyes bleed?" The magician sighed and said, "Rebound the force."
"Impossible." The Eye of Goliath once passed the Infinity Gauntlet head-on in times of crisis!A certain purple sweet potato essence confronted the power of Goliath for 3 minutes without gaining any benefits.If it weren't for Ronika's mental body that couldn't bear Goliath's full energy for a long time, maybe Tony wouldn't use that method...
Is this magician more powerful than the Infinity Gauntlet?Can the Eye of Goliath be rendered powerless?
"Let's find something early and go." The magician didn't intend to answer any more. He watched the little girl take the handkerchief timidly, and couldn't help showing a gentle and funny expression. He couldn't help touching the top of her soft head, and said seriously, "No matter who asked you to come, stay away from that person in the future. Why doesn't he come by himself for such a dangerous thing?"
Jason probably didn't expect Maroni to be able to invite such a powerful person.And the identity of this person has not been revealed in any information. It seems that Maroni hid him very well, and it is difficult to deal with the gangster who is full of scruples.
Wiping off the blood and tears with a little rabbit handkerchief, Ronnie looked at the other person's back and suddenly asked, "What's your name?"
"Are you going to talk if you can't take a peek?" The magician laughed, shook his head, but said with a good temper: "Meredith, someone once called me Merry, and I said it sounded like the word 'happy' in 'Merry Christmas' ” (Note: Merry is pronounced as Mei Rui)
In any case, I almost fell this time, and it seems that I should use this eye more cautiously.Ronika sighed. It wasn't that she relied too much on the Eye of Goliath, but that Goliath's power had never met a match in the two universes, so she was overconfident in herself.
Goliath is too strong, as if it is not the power of these world levels, but the existence of higher dimensions.It's like characters on paper fighting each other, one's skills are more powerful than the other's, but they are all two-dimensional energy. At this time, if one hand is not satisfied with this manuscript, it can directly tear it up and throw it into the trash can. It is the hierarchical crushing of the low-dimensional world by high-dimensional energy.
The magician finally left, and Ronika wiped the blood off the ground with her own napkin.As for the little rabbit handkerchief, she packed it in an evidence bag and stuffed it into the pocket of her clothes under her cloak.
The process of getting the treasure map was very smooth, so smooth that it was unbelievable for Ronika. The magician didn't lie to her at all, whether it was the dark room in the corridor or the password of the vase, which made her and Red Hood even more suspicious.
The handkerchief was taken by Red Hood for testing. Not long after, Jason came back with the news that the man named Meredith was dead in the database. He should have died three years ago in a car accident. Also sat his wife, and a pair of children.
The eldest daughter is 15 years old and the youngest son is only six years old. No one in the family escaped.What's more, the vehicle exploded at high temperature later, and the whole family was burned into coke. It is said that all the flesh and blood were burned, and only some bones remained, which caused a lot of trouble for the forensic autopsy.
"Then, it can only be said that Meredith Adams was not dead at the time." Ronika said as she drank the milk, "Or some strange power brought him back from the dead."
Hearing death and resurrection, Jason's face froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered, frowning and looking at Meredith Adams' information, and then slowly said: "Perhaps, it is really death and resurrection? "
Ronika turned to look at him.
"His wife is not American, she is Middle Eastern."
"so what?"
"Didn't I tell you how I survived?" Speaking of his own death, Jason's face became ugly, and his breath became cold and gloomy, but he continued: "In the Middle East There is a stronghold of an ancient organization, their leader can grow immortal, the secret is that he has a well water that can revive people, I came out of that pool."
"And this Meredith Adams' wife, Gilta Adams, is a local."
"Then he is related to that ancient organization?" "I don't know, I don't know." Jason interrupted, as if he didn't want to mention that organization, "In any case, the plan must continue. there."
However, unexpectedly, after Maroni's treasure map was stolen, he did not become hysterical. He even happily ignored the provocations of other forces and invested a large sum of money in a shipwreck company, planning to salvage something .
Ronika naturally knew what the other party was looking for, the treasure of the Nazis, but hasn't the treasure map been taken away?
"I knew that kid was lying to us!" Red Hood broke through the window another day, and said angrily, "Bastard, the treasure map you took away is fake! I should find a chance to kill him. "
"Two things, Jason." Ronika narrowed her eyes: "First, I still don't think Meredith Adams would do Maroney's work; second, you climb girls' ledges without saying hello— "
The little black-haired girl threw the giant Pippi shrimp pillow on the bed onto the face of the red hood, and almost missed Jason, who was leaning against it, but it was soft and naturally did not hurt. When she picked it up, The red Pippi shrimp looked at the former with a funny expression, as if silently mocking.
Red Hood: ...
"Forget it, I can't take care of Maroney for the time being." Red Hood said coldly, "The old bat has already noticed the movement here, besides, the shipwreck company is still salvaging, it is a serious company's investment, I always You can't go to that place with less than 1 people in front of all Gotham's official media, and grab the treasure that hasn't been salvaged back then?"
No clown would do such a boring thing!
With this time, how much territory can he expand.However, although Maroni's affairs can't be intervened for the time being, the good news is that after Falcone was punished last time, the whole person calmed down. , ignore" standard attitude, and other small gangsters are not Jason's opponents at all.
You ask Maroni how can he connive?Oh, Maroni is now full of treasures. Although he sent his men to chase after him, he didn't actually spend much time on Red Hood's side.
So in just one week, the Red Hood expanded its territory by more than three times.
As a result, Batman in the Batcave felt that his hair was even more bald.The matter of Goliath's eyes has not been completely resolved, and the case involving Ronika and Maliwei has not been concluded. What a monster, and Gotham has a new character, Red Hood, who is inextricably linked with the Joker.
Should he be thankful that Arkham didn't do a big breakout and make Batman's life more colorful?
Among so many things, Batman can only come one by one, a priority or something.Ronika can wait, but Goliath is not in a hurry; the alliance has Superman carrying it, and the steel frame is also assisting in communication; Maroni is just fishing for the sunken ship and is not committing a crime, so let the prophet Barbara keep an eye on it; the rest On the contrary, the red hood is more dangerous.
This red hood is not only related to clowns, but also uses extremely cruel methods. He doesn't blink his eyes when killing people, and annexed several gangs, large and small, within a week. Treasure hunting, an attempt to unify Gotham's underworld in a time of malaise.
Batman needs to "meet and see" the red hood, although the so-called "meet and see" will probably turn into hands-on, and finally he must be apprehended and summarized.
According to the informant's report, the Red Hood will appear in Xicheng District tonight, and he has his eyes on a small gang again.
In the cool breeze of hunting, you can still smell the fishy smell of the sea. The red hood puts the guns back into the holsters. Naturally, all the gang members who are still alive belong to his subordinates. He has already sent a signal to his subordinates, and there will be special people in a while Come and receive them.
"Red Hood." A familiar voice came to mind not far away, like the terminal stage of eye cancer.
Now is not the time, the Red Hood thought sullenly, it is not a good time to have a showdown with the old man, at least until he finishes cleaning up Maroni!He ran away without looking back, his tall figure jumped on the top floors of Gotham's tall buildings, his dexterity was incredible.
Batman's heart sank when he saw the man run away when he saw him.He didn't think the Red Hood was afraid of him, that's why he acted like he was running for his life.On the contrary, he felt that the other party was not afraid, and the reason for running away was that he didn't want to see him.
This also means that this is an acquaintance.
But Batman really couldn't think of any "acquaintance" who would dress up like this, because he had never fought, and the red hood usually avoided the camera very carefully, and he hadn't had a chance to analyze the opponent's fighting style.
Although there were a lot of thoughts in his mind, Batman instinctively chased after him.In terms of familiarity, no one can match his control over the topography of Gotham's tall buildings.
It should still be possible to run, Jason thought so a second ago, until he saw the oncoming girl.The whole expression froze in an instant. If it wasn't for wearing a red hood, this expression might be worth taking a photo to commemorate forever.
"Why are you here?!" Jason stared.
"Something happened to Maroni." Ronika didn't come to joke. "Your communicator has been hacked. I can only come here to inform you. I must rush there immediately."
"What?" Red Hood didn't know for a moment whether he should first care about the fact that he was hacked after meeting Batman, or ask Maroney what happened first.
"Maroni was killed, and all his subordinates were killed. I went to the scene to take a look, and they were all corpses." Not to mention how horrible and cruel the scene was, it was Ronika's heart that had been tested for a long time. .
"The police found out?" The old bat should have been notified, and it probably won't chase him anymore.
Red Hood stopped and stood with Ronika, looking at Batman across a building.Sure enough, the other party pressed the ear, as if listening to some important information.
Batman heard the message from both sides of Gordon and Barbara, looked again at the red hood on the opposite house, and his helper who had just arrived, a little girl-sized figure in a Halloween vampire cape, with a A weeping mask, however weird it looked, was looking at him.
If the chase continues like this, it may take half an hour to catch up, but Maroni's side is a big deal, and he must rush to take a look.The importance of the task was instantly reversed in his mind, and Batman took a deep look at the two of them again. He always felt that the figures of the two were inexplicably familiar, but he turned around and pulled out the hook gun, and rushed to the place where the accident happened.
Red Hood breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Ronika, "What happened?"
"Go back to the safe house and don't go to my house. Sharon brought a little boyfriend tonight. I really don't want to join in the fun." Ronika sighed and followed Jason to his safe house. As soon as the latter entered the room He dragged off his stuffy and hot hood, took a can of beer and a can of juice from the refrigerator, and threw the juice to the little girl.
It is not difficult to kill the gangster, even Ronika herself can kill Maroni.But to say who can wipe out so many gangsters overnight without any noise, without anyone hearing a scream or a roar, it is probably only the weird magician Meredith... Adams again.
It is said that Maroney's mansion and his gang strongholds are dead silent, the oil pan in the kitchen is still hot, the bread crumbs on the sausages are burnt, the beer is poured on the sofa one by one, and the TV is still playing Ball games and adult movies... but there is no one alive, not even "human".
No one found out what happened here, but occasionally a street gangster passed by and smelled the smell of blood in the air.This kid drank a little too much wine, and the dog who didn't know where he came from went to the window and took a look in. It is estimated that he will never forget this look in his life.
He was so frightened that he crawled back to find his boss, talked wildly, and then the news spread, and it grew like a weed, and even Gordon heard about it when he was on duty at the police station.
When he arrived with the policemen, he saw such a bloody scene. There were blood and flesh lumps all over the place. A few policemen who had just started to work immediately vomited. Gordon also frowned and immediately notified Bat Xia.
"I didn't see the body of Meredith Adams, he's still alive." Ronika said to Jason.
Red Hood sneered: "Then what else is there to say? He killed it."
Then he seemed to think of something, the sarcasm on his face faded away, his brows were tightly frowned, and he looked at Ronika: "Last time you met him, fortunately he didn't intend to kill or hurt you, otherwise..." Otherwise, if anything happened to Ronika, he would blame himself for the rest of his life.
Even now that Ronika is fine, Jason feels like his heart has missed a beat.His sister, his childhood friend, was almost killed by a fearsome enemy for helping him steal a treasure map.
Jason may have died once, he may have been extreme, but there was no question that he was a protector.
He used his own way to protect everything he cherished, to protect his family, to protect Ronika, to protect the children on the roadside, and to protect the innocent people in Gotham.The purpose of his killing was never really for revenge, just for protection.
"Oh, it's okay." Ronika was stunned for a while, but she didn't mind, she was really not afraid of death.Besides, it was not easy for Meredith Adams to kill her, even if the Eye of Goliath was abolished at that time, and the Force was useless.
But after all, she is a master of swordsmanship, a battle-tested warrior, and she is not so easy to kill.
"I'm worried about other things." Ronika said to Jason: "Maroni is dead, his power will be robbed, Gotham will inevitably have a bloodbath, well, I know you will take advantage of this The opportunity has taken the territory, but have you ever thought about why you want to kill Maroni now?"
The red hood was silent for a moment: "Because there is news about the salvage of the sunken ship, he wants to stir up everyone's nerves and let all the money-grubbing people compete for the Nazi treasure."
"I remember that last night, the shipwreck company salvaged a crown of the Tsarist Russian Empire from the bottom of the sea, which is priceless. With this as a bait, anyone who wants to use money to settle Gotham's political circles will frantically chase this treasure. This is him What he wanted, he was never helping Maroni, he was just using him to solve the gangsters in Gotham!" Ronika stood up.
"The treasure map we got was fake, and so was the one Maroni got. No... it should be that there is no Nazi treasure map in this world at all, and everything was made up by Riddis Adams!"
But why is this?
"Father." The youngest son, who was arguing with the eldest daughter, came over. He was playing with his beloved Superman toy, but his sister didn't want to accompany him to be a villain, obviously he was ready for even little monsters.
"I'm driving, baby," he reassured softly.
"Hey, sit down for me! Leah! Take care of your brother, little James, if you dare to crawl forward again, I'll spank your ass." The wife put on a straight face and reprimanded the child with a serious face.
He laughed twice, and excused the children: "Oh, Jill, don't be angry. Children, don't make mom lose her temper anymore. Dad doesn't want to sleep in the bathroom tonight."
His caring little padded jacket, baby daughter Liya rolled her eyes when she heard that, her father liked to joke and never was serious, although she quite liked such a father.
"Jill, everything will be fine, don't worry." The husband, who was driving, patted his wife's knee reassuringly with the other hand.He knew what Jill was worried about. He wanted to be a magician before and paid a lot of money to get him on stage.
In fact, he still made some money, but maybe he was not talented enough in this, so he still couldn't realize his dream in the end.But it doesn't matter, he was a gold medal insurance salesman before, and the company agreed that he should go back. After saving some money in a few months, he can replace all the debts he owed before.
"It's not because of this." The wife was worried. "I'm not from Gotham, but there is no big difference between the Middle East and Gotham. No one dared to owe money to the local gangsters, so I said I should ask the bank to borrow money."
"But the bank won't lend us money at all. Hey, don't worry, dear, it's just a few months of grace. I've discussed it with my cousin, and he's willing to guarantee it." He was sure that nothing would happen. , "What they want is money, they won't do anything to us, I'm a native of Gotham."
"Okay, don't make the kids nervous too." He looked in the rearview mirror
