Chapter 1305: Making an Attack in the East and Attacking in the West
Gotham City is a city where thick clouds are always floating in the sky at night, serving as a backdrop for searchlights.
Obviously located in the sunny and pleasant climate of New Jersey, Gotham City looks like an ancient southern European city in terms of climate and urban architectural style.
This may be because the city government wasted a lot of tax money on a beautification project that was littered with gothic decorative gargoyle sculptures that were so ugly that they frightened passers-by at night.
Viewed from a distance, the city's tall buildings look like the obelisks of classical churches. At night, not only is the sky covered by thick clouds, but there is always a light mist floating between the buildings. The entire city It looks like a neon-lit necropolis.
The nightlife of Gotham citizens is like a disco on the grave, tense, exciting, noisy, and a bit scary and scary.
Gotham City is the only city in the Kingdom of Hope where white people account for a high proportion of the total population - the vast majority of gang leaders and criminals in the city are white. Black people are rare, but the crime rate is several times higher than in black communities. city of.
This is a great achievement achieved under the premise that there is an evil nemesis in the city, the Dark Knight, who is "all-powerful, never makes mistakes, and never rests."
It is quite difficult for white people to beat black people in terms of crime rate, but the people of Gotham have done it. It is still under the condition that the city's economic situation is relatively prosperous. Therefore, they have won the praise of simple folk customs. It means that Gotham citizens are simple and honest. Just like the black uncle on the African savannah, he is elegant and easy-going.
Therefore, in Damian's view, this wave of people is really not good enough. Pay some severance pay and immigrate the citizens who can still be saved. There is no need to pay attention to the rest. Even if you abandon Gotham like Detroit, let these garbage There seems to be nothing to regret about white people rotting with Gotham.
There are many similar fallen cities in Africa, Latin America and Asia, and no righteous hero has ever been seen there who regards punishing rape and eradicating evil as his lifelong belief. God’s attitude towards such fallen cities is like the destruction of Sodo The city of Mac was the same as the city of Gomorrah. A few good people were evacuated and then the city was massacred.
Superman also once said that Gotham City, like Batman, is terminally ill and completely hopeless.
How can Batman think that he is more powerful than God and Superman, and that he can save Gotham as long as he works hard and sheds a little blood?
But after all, Gotham City hides many secrets, and often there will be a weird situation where "the DC universe is in chaos, Gotham has the final say."
Whether Batman is doing it because of his belief in justice or because Gotham has secret metaphysical reasons that must be protected. Damian, who only collects information about Gotham through online investigations, cannot tell.
People with strong beliefs are worthy of respect, but whether they are worthy of imitation and learning depends on the specific situation. Until he knows how deep the water in Gotham City is, Damian can only remain silent about his cheap father. Keep a respectful distance.
…
At night, a huge explosion woke up a middle-aged man with a mustache. He quickly grabbed the glasses on the bedside table and put them on. Without rushing to turn on the light, he ran to the window and slightly opened a gap in the curtains. Looking out furtively.
This man is James Gordon, the chief of the Gotham Police Department.
Long before Damian was born, James Gordon had already served as the chief of the Gotham Police Department during the Dark Knight event. Now, twelve years later, with the close cooperation between him and Batman, Gotham City The public security has been greatly improved, and many gang leaders and super villains have been sent to Arkham Asylum by Batman.
In the past two years, Director Gordon has occasionally had the opportunity to go home and have a good sleep, instead of squatting on the roof of the building every night playing with searchlights.
Occasionally, Director Gordon would laugh at himself, saying that he was not the director, but the chief lamplighter.
Looking out the window, Director Gordon's heart skipped a beat!
He saw ninjas hiding in the shadows and wearing black tights. The ninjas had quietly surrounded the apartment where he lived. The thing that exploded just now was the police patrol car he had arranged to be on duty downstairs to protect his safety.
Ninja from the League of Assassins?
Director Gordon immediately recognized the identity of the attacker. In the incident twelve years ago, ninjas from the League of Assassins also appeared in Gotham. These foreign dragons were much more terrifying than the local snakes in the city. !
Every time a ninja appears in Gotham City, it means that an earth-shattering case is about to occur.
Director Gordon quickly took out the pistol from under the pillow and loaded it neatly, thinking about how to break out of the encirclement and avoid being captured by these ninjas with ill-intentioned intentions.
Commissioner Gordon is the leader of the Gotham City police. Once he is captured, the entire city's police system will fall into command chaos. It will also cut off the connection between the police and Batman. Targeting him is the best way to capture the thief and the king. , a good strategy that kills two birds with one stone.
Although he is a bit old, Commissioner Gordon has maintained good physical condition and has received good martial arts training with the help of Batman.
He was confident that he could defeat the ninjas of the Assassin's League in a one-on-one or even one-on-two situation. As long as he had the right strategy and didn't alert most of the attackers, he could escape quietly.
Only being able to defeat ninjas one-on-one or one-on-two gives the impression that Commissioner Gordon is a bit weak, but in fact Gordon can take on more than a dozen gang thugs by himself.
The ninjas of the Assassin's League are all elite assassins who have trained hard. Each of them is proficient in one or two fighting skills, and their combat effectiveness is completely different from that of the gang members in the city.
Tiptoeing towards the corner of the room, Gordon gently opened a secret door. He had been blocked at home many times and beaten severely. He had been ill for a long time and had arranged an escape route for himself.
As soon as he entered the secret door, a cold barrel of a gun pressed against his forehead. Gordon's heart skipped a beat. When he looked up, he saw a strong man wearing a yin and yang mask in the shadows, hiding leisurely behind the secret door. Wait for him to take the bait like a rabbit.
"Death knell?" The visitor was also an acquaintance of Director Gordon. He asked in shock: "What are you doing in Gotham?"
"Relax, Director Gordon." Deathstroke said solemnly: "As long as you cooperate well, I can guarantee that you will not be harmed and Gotham City will not be destroyed..."
"Don't even think about it..."
How could Commissioner Gordon believe this notorious mercenary leader? Wherever this guy appears, there will always be a bloody storm. This time he comes to Gotham, he must be planning some terrible conspiracy.
Without fear of the gun on his forehead, Director Gordon tried to fight back, but before he could throw a punch, Deathstroke punched him in the lower abdomen, and he collapsed to the ground clutching his stomach.
Not long after, lights outlined the shadow of the bat on the everlasting clouds in Gotham City's night sky.
On the roof below, Commissioner Gordon was tied to a searchlight, and Deathstroke stood on the edge of the building with his arms folded, waiting for the guests who were about to visit.
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the city.
The towering steel gate of Arkham Asylum slowly rose. Warden Quincy led the prison guards with loaded guns to wait at the gate, also waiting for another guest who was about to visit.
