Chapter 329
Gotham, this is a heaven in the eyes of a few people, and a hell in the eyes of most people.
For those who don’t know it, the city has seen a very high crime rate in the last 5 years. Very few people will consider Gotham first when moving, but If we use numbers to speak, we can see that in the past year, more residents have moved into this city than in any previous year.
Under the appearance of a high crime rate, what is hidden is a city that is thriving again. The city hall of the Wayne Group and the mayor Mr. Nestor’s cooperation in the city’s transformation plan is proceeding very smoothly. The newly prosperous Gotham Wharf can provide nearly 3W jobs.
For an ordinary person, spiritual enjoyment is obviously not as good as the abundance of life, so it creates such a wonderful scene. Gotham is notorious, but in the context of the continued downturn of the world economy, he is willing to come There are more and more people in this city.
"shua"
The heavy curtains in the room were slammed open, and the not-so-violent sunlight hit the bedroom, causing the sleepy thief lady Selina to complain. She had just returned from Europe with three more jewelry items that could be passed down to the world, but this did not make her as happy as before.
"Get up, Selina!"
The energetic Katherine jumped onto Selina's bed and kept urging her, "Get up, everyone is waiting for you to have breakfast!"
"Let me sleep a little longer, my god...My biological clock hasn't turned around yet!"
Selina complained, but she annoyed Katherine, today 17 The year-old girl panting with rage jumped under the ground. After a while, she sneaked back into the room with a bag of ice cubes.
So after 5 minutes of screaming and screaming, Selina, who reluctantly finished washing up in her pajamas, followed Katherine to the living room.
There is already a family’s breakfast. Cyber, wearing an apron, is putting the last pot of soup in the middle of the table, and Ms. Dorothy with an indifferent look is helping Cyber set the table. Beside her, a bunch of The chirp chirp twitter twitter girl was sitting on the sofa and talking. Robin and Santas, who had been busy for another night last night, leaned against the window with the morning breeze.
This lively and lively scene moved Katherine a little by surprise. During a certain period of time in the past, she did not want to stay in this villa because she was just a lonely person here. Especially when the old man passed away and Cyber disappeared, this place almost became his sad place.
Now it’s different, here is full of life again, and staying here also makes her feel relaxed and happy, maybe this is the feeling of home.
"Okay, I'm eating."
Cyber took off his apron, let Dorothy tie him a napkin, and sat on the main seat of the dining table. This was the old man. The sitting position is now replaced by him, from him to The head of the family.
"Pray."
Cyber holds Katherine with his left hand, Robin with his right hand, and the others also hold other people's hands with both hands, before starting the meal at Cyber's order Praying is almost exactly the same as what the old man did back then. Of course, he himself does not pray, he does not believe this.
But just after the prayer was over, just as Robin was about to withdraw his hand, Cyber's frowned suddenly and vaguely.
"Robin, how are you doing?"
He took the hot tea at the right temperature and asked as he drank, "Is Gotham's situation okay?"
"It's a mess..."
Robin put a spoonful of soup into his mouth, satisfied nodded, and said as he drank, "Joker and Batman's fight will not be said, they will One appearance is a battle of good and evil. Penguin can't stop the villains who were released by Joker. Now the slums in Midtown and West City are just like a world war with magic."
"There are some weird guys who also get involved. Those are some very troublesome bastards."
Speaking of which, Robin couldn't help rubbing his forehead, and said with a headache. "For example, Riddler and Mister Freeze, they are not full of villains, but occasionally, no one can stand it. The Black Gate Prison is already overcrowded, but Gordon can’t help it. The situation is now better than it was five years ago. We experienced a hundred times worse!"
"Hmm..."
Cyber's fingers were beating on the table, he drank a cup of tea, "Need my help? "
Robin froze for a while, and then recalled the scene of the Gates of Hell war in New York that he had participated in not long ago. He couldn't help fighting a cold war, shook the head,
"Forget it, the opponents you have to face are not these little rookies in costumes. I don't want to see Gotham turn into ruins overnight."
Cyber nodded, but he pointed out For those girls and boys who don’t forget to whisper to each other when they eat,
"Let them go at least, Robin, they have all dropped out of school, and they can’t just be left uninhibited, so let’s go. From tomorrow on, Katherine and Emma, as well as Clarice and Rogue, you girls who are underage will go to Mr. Hawkins’ laboratory, I will let him take time to teach you..."
"no! I'm not going!"
Katherine put down the knife and fork, baring fangs and brandishing claws said, "I am already a bar boss, I make money to support myself, so I won't go to school. The most boring!"
"Hey!"
Cyber tapped on the table with his finger,
"I didn’t discuss this with you , Christian girls, give me lessons for the first half of the day or follow Lewis to learn how to manage the docklands and Devil G Ang’s affairs, free activities in the afternoon, but in the evening, you can follow Robin and Santas together. This city will be your fighting arena, your hunting ground, use your abilities reasonably, catch bad guys, and see the world. The dark side. "
He took a cigar from Ms. Dorothy and dipped it on his mouth.
"My advice to you is not to keep your hands when you catch those guys, but since Follow Robin to act. You have to listen to him. If Robin tells me that one of you disobeys the command and puts others in danger, I will send her back to New York..."
"do you understand? ”
Cyber's glances over the girls’ faces, Clarice and Rogue both hesitate, but Katherine and the most cheerful Emma be eager to have a try, he waited for 2 minutes, no one objected , So he made a final decision,
"Then that's it. "
After dinner, Cyber and Robin were walking in the small garden in front of the villa. The two were talking. They were not very close but they were definitely not unfamiliar. Robin had gone through the past few years. After tempering, the personality became more and more indifferent, and the whole person seemed to exude the temperament of strangers.
"I said, Robin, these times when I was away, you did not meet some in Gotham. Strange things, or strange people? "
Cyber handed him a cigarette and asked casually, "You don't know much about this world. If you do, you must tell me immediately." "
Robin's expression has not changed. He laughed, shook the head,
"Of course, if I met, I would do that. "
Cyber's eyes narrowed, the hesitation in Robin's eyes did not escape his observation, plus the faintly discernable power he felt from Robin's body during the meal just now , He can be sure of one thing now: Robin, his little brother, doesn’t know when he has already stepped into that damn world.
In this case, he can’t No matter.
"I am going to Central City tonight and everything is ready. "
Cyber patted Robin's shoulder, "Take care of the children for me, and I will bring Kevin back." "
Robin did not speak, he was firmly nodded, and the scar on his face became more and more ferocious, but when he turned around, Robin also breathed a sigh of relief.
Yes, He has a secret...a secret that cannot be discovered by Cyber, but it is not out of malice, but a protection.
That night, at 4 o'clock in the morning, Robin in a dark red battle suit was light and light. Running over the quiet Gotham, like a deer running on the hills, the kind of action is not like a normal person can do, especially if he can jump with a light leap A dozen meters away in the gap between tall buildings, it makes him look more like a Super-man than a normal person.
Finally, he came to the depths of Gotham Chinatown, looked around, and was sure After there was no one, he jumped off the tall building and entered a hidden warehouse.
Robin walked past not as dim, but not as bright light, and stood in the empty warehouse. Adjusting his breathing, when he reached his best state, all the lights went out instantly, the next moment, the howling fist wind hit his junior, and Robin rolled forward to avoid him.
Robin jumped up, clenched his fists with both hands, and assumed a fighting stance. The special power that is not too powerful surged in his body. The azure airflow entangled his fists, making every punch he throws. It is Mount Tai, and the attacker in the dark is obviously not afraid, but rushes up against Robin’s fist.
“peng peng peng peng ”
Two people fought close in the dark, each punch can bring out the visible ripples of naked eye in the air. In this well-insulated warehouse, the battle in the dark becomes more real and deadly.
3 minutes later, Robin was punched in the abdomen. Under the special power of that fist, Robin swung upside down and flew out and hit the wall.
"You have stepped back! Robin! "
The attacker finally made a sound, echoing in the dark, with a strange accent, "Boxing is a special martial art. If it is not practiced for more than 3 days, it will become obscure, and a month of relaxation will be ruined. All your hard work... is your will backed down? Or did you choose to become an ordinary person in the end? "
"Um...no. "
Robin grabbed his stomach and got up, shook the head, "It's just the past few days that my relatives are reunited... well, I admit, I relax the past few days and practice, I will double Make it up. "
"Hum"
The lights in this brief moment came on, and the person in front of Robin finally revealed his true face. He was a yellow man who was not too tall and looked like In his thirties, his appearance is not outstanding, he looks like an ordinary person who can be seen everywhere in Gotham Chinatown, but his eyes are piercing, like a steel knife placed outside in an imposing manner.
After seeing Robin making a promise, he sighed, the imposing manner on his body suddenly disappeared, and he became peaceful again, spreading his hands, shrugged Robin,
"Don't blame me for being too strict with you, Robin. You have this innate talent. You can go to Kunlun to strive to become the Official Disciple of the powerful "Thunder King" master. You will even inherit that great name in the future. Road, it’s just that you gently open the door..."
He sat cross-legged on the ground and said to Robin like an old friend,
"I Knowing that you want to protect your relatives and protect this city, but with you now, it’s far from enough. I can teach you very little. And in one month, I’m going back to Kunlun. You want Come with me? "
Robin wears that visor and can't see the expression, but his hesitation is still felt by this person, and he persuades,
"Your family's power is enough for the time being Protect your younger sister. When you return from school, this city will no longer be dangerous and unmatched for you... Come with me, Robin, don't waste your super innate talent! "
"I...I will think about it again. "
"peng"
Just after Robin said this, the door of the warehouse behind them made a loud noise, and the heavy iron door was treated like a kind of mud His posture was torn apart with no difficulty, revealing the tall silhouette standing in the dark.
Dark energy flicked outside his body, tearing away the deep night, Cyber will Remove the cigar from the corner of his mouth and play it aside.
"He is not going anywhere, he will stay in Gotham..."
The breath on his body changes in this brief moment It’s as deep as hell,
"Now Gotham is really a flurry of demons...such half-and-drifters can pretend to be expert in Gotham, and want to kidnap my younger brother. Very good, you mouse Successfully angered me. "
"Did you break it yourself?" Or should I do it? Friendly reminder...choosing the latter will be...painful! "
