145. God Bless Gotham (VI.)
Gu Qing soon knew what his boyfriend was doing behind his back, so he consulted the criminal and made up a background for Gu Qing.
Of course, a legitimate person should have a proper background.
Gu Qing has a blank background, which is completely in line with his origin, he and Moriarty were originally parachuted into this world, what background can they have. Among the labels that Gu Qing is now well-known to the upper class of Gotham City, there are "the new director of Arkham Asylum", "an elegant gentleman from England", and "the third largest shareholder of the Wayne Group", only the second of these three labels represents his background, and it is still played by face.
When Young Master Wayne investigated his background, he only saw his blank background, and I have to say that this is also one of the reasons why Young Master Wayne is jealous of Gu Qing.
Now Moriarty has made up a background for Gu Qing with his unbridled imagination, which seems to be helping him, but it is said that it is unbridled imagination.
After Gu Qing finished reading it expressionlessly, he asked Moriarty: "Can you explain to me, what is #Walk the World for Love#?" β
Moriarty explained with interest: "Oh, you say this, and the expansion is: because of his deep love for the same sex, he was forced by the pedantic, stubborn, and old-fashioned head of the family to disown him, but he resolutely chose his lover and left for a foreign country, from Great Britain to the United States. β
"Um," Gu Qing paused and asked, "I want to ask if the 'pedantic, stubborn, old-fashioned head of the house' in your story refers to Mycroft?" β
Moriarty flattened his mouth: "My dear, I thought you would name the 'smart, open, changeable lover' in this story, who is referring to." β
After listening to Moriarty's words, Gu Qing was stunned for a long time and then groaned: "For God's sake, it turns out that what you really like is Mycrof, otherwise why you choose the word will have to be compared." β
Moriarty: "...... You're deliberately disgusting with me, aren't you? β
Gu Qing retracted the painful state he had pretended to do before, and raised his eyebrows: "I'll give you back this word, the setting you made up is really bloody." β
"Sweetheart, you don't understand this, #θΊζ―ζ₯ζΊδΊηζ΄»#, the more vulgar it is, the more those goldfish like it. What's wrong with you? Moriarty intuitively felt that there would be nothing good to say about his boyfriend's suspicious silence, so he heard him say, "The goldfish stalk also comes from McCroft." β
The consulting criminal's face suddenly wrinkled, and he rolled his eyes.
"Now I know you really don't like Mycroft," Gu Qing was just teasing Moriarty, and then pulled the topic back, "So, I don't understand what is the point of you making up such a one, quoting your words, and coming out with a vulgar background?" β
Moriarty: "...... Thank you for understanding the right relationship between me and Mycroft, sweetheart. And to answer your question, it is probably to add some blockage to you, so that you can't rely on your face to mix well in the high society of Gotham City~"
"I think I probably get it." Gu Qing said thoughtfully, and then ...... He didn't say anything.
Moriarty: "...... Little Honey, are you thinking that you obviously don't rely on your face, but on your personal charm? β
"Of course not, I'm just thinking that you are making such a small move, and it seems that in this game that has not officially started, you will show weakness first. No, no, no, I looked at the date you gave me to mention this background, obviously before this, so it can't be a game setup that I came up with on a whim, but what is it for? Gu Qing pretended to think, "Some people are becoming more and more possessive." β
And then...... I was gnawed by the angry consulting criminal.
But this is also a "stroke of genius", homosexuality β β is very unpopular in the xenophobic Gotham City in this era, and after it was exposed, it instantly overshadowed the lace news that Bruce Wayne bought another hotel. And the nature of the two is not very different, for the playboy, the mainstream voice is mostly ridicule and envy, jealousy and hatred, but for the homosexuals who were still guilty decades ago and should be sent to a psychiatric hospital for a period of time, that is contempt.
The madhouse is truly a complete madhouse this time.
All of a sudden, the nursing home that was originally #rushed# - of course, it was for the director, not for the predetermined location - became #doorman#.
However, to be honest, the negative impact of public opinion on Gu Qing is almost negligible. First, he opened the Arkham Sanatorium, and Gotham City breeds mentally ill patients, plus Batman is there, Arkham Sanatorium is not worried about no more patients; Second, he is not short of money, the Wayne Group is thriving, and the dividends alone are endless, and even if some shareholders resist him because of this matter, who makes the largest shareholder of the Wayne Group the same #Bohemian # Master Wayne; Third, the pressure of public opinion, oh, it doesn't matter, not to mention that Gu Qing doesn't want the outside world's attention to be on him and Arkham Sanatorium in the recent stage.
Aren't he and the patients at Arkham Sanatorium still playing the game of "Escape from Arkham"?
Although it did not achieve the effect of "adding blockage" to the mouth of the criminal, Moriarty was very satisfied with his boyfriend who was starting to become homely again, and he went out to promiscuity himself, no, to expand his "business".
Eva and M-o are happy about it.
However, some people are happy and some are worried, and the patients of Arkham Sanatorium are "QWQ". Because Mr. Dean began to talk to them about life in order to stimulate their potential.
"Scarecrow" Klein was particularly disdainful at first when he saw the patients muttering, but when it was his turn, he entered Gu Qing's office with a bunch of "okay" eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
When Gu Qing talked about the origin of his nickname "Scarecrow", Klein's attitude was neither to resist nor to cooperate, "Now that you are the attending doctor, whatever you say is what it is." β
"Since you have sincerely asked me to analyze you, then-" Gu Qing's bright blue eyes shrouded Klein's body and mind, "If it were me, I would say that you had this nickname when you were a student, obviously when you were a student, you were the target of bullying in school, and it was a common means to further insult you by nicknames." Let's talk about the person you killed for the first time, in terms of time, I would say that it was when you graduated from high school, after all, if you want to say goodbye to this shameful past and usher in a new life, you have to do something to remember and commemorate, isn't it? Am I right? β
Klein's expression was distorted: "You investigate me?" β
"Do I need it? But if you really let the police investigate, I think they will be surprised that the school bullies who bullied you the most in the first place have all died in an 'accident', will they? β
Klein clasped his hands around his chest: "Are you trying to induce me to confess?" Want to use this as a blackmail to let me do something for you? Do you do the same to other people? I don't think that's what a psychiatrist should do. β
Faced with such accusations, Gu Qing said lightly: "You are so cheeky. β
Klein: "...... What the? β
Gu Qing explained: "You still seem to think that you are an excellent psychiatrist? β
Klein: "...... No matter how good I am, I'm better than you! Look at what you've done? They will only become more and more abnormal at your instigation! But when I was dean, Iβ"
Gu Qing blinked his eyes: "Why don't you continue?" β
"You don't have to take my word for it, I know exactly what I'm doing, I'm just experimenting with the new drugs I invented for mental illness on them. But so what, you're not from Gotham, you don't know the current state of Gotham. Klein really had an attitude of "dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water", Gu Qing smiled, and put his hands together on his chin, "Come and talk to me more, Mr. Crane." Given what you said, I'm not a Gotham, and I don't know enough about the 'great deeds' of the scarecrows to have the respect they deserve. Why don't you pretend to be a scarecrow, you won't be able to communicate with me properly? β
Klein licked his lips, "I know you're looking down on-" As he spoke, he suddenly burst out, spraying his newly developed poison in Gu Qing's direction.
"It's a very old-fashioned attempt." Gu Qing's voice sounded from behind Klein, and the 'Gu Qing' who was originally sitting behind the desk, strictly speaking, his 3D projection had disappeared. Gu Qing reached out and took the bottle containing the poison from the stiff Klein's hand, and showed a dark smile at Klein, "Now I think we can start our conversation." β
Klein: "......"
To Klein's jaw-dropping, Mr. Dean took a deep breath, and Crane confirmed that he had inhaled the poison gas he had just sprayed, and then ...... The recipe was exactly what he said. "There is progress but still lacks amazing creative power, you say, are you not so sick as bad? Oh, Jonathan, don't be ashamed, you're not the least ill in Arkham Sanatorium, the least sick is Mr. Ficony. You're an old acquaintance with him, right? He's coming to Arkham, and I'm sure you've played a big part in it, or why would he still call your name when he dreams back at midnight? β
Klein: "......"
When Batman collected Fecony's evidence and wanted to send him to court, there were a lot of twists and turns, of course, most people wouldn't want to see this scene, so Klein used the "fear gas" he developed for Ficony, which made Ficony fall into fear and still be delirious.
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
Gu Qing thought for a while and said, "I'm just thinking about it, do I want you to treat Feconi?" After all#Untie the bell and still have to tie the bell#? β
Klein: "......"
"You're not going to take it seriously, are you?"
Klein: "......'re going crazy!" Can you still have a good chat?
Anyway, after a conversation that seemed completely marginal to Crane, Crane felt that he was going to have a nervous breakdown sooner or later--until now, Crane still felt that he was the most normal person in this madhouse--and when he saw the admiring glances of those patients after seeing that he didn't even bummer, he suddenly felt unbearable, and felt the urge to go on a rampage all the way and leave Arkham!
Whoever likes to stay with this group of neurotics is going to stay, he's fed up anyway!
He now misses the exterior of Arkham Sanatorium, with its always cloudy night sky, eerie Gothic buildings towering high, dark alleys with filth and dirt, and ...... The Dark Knight Batman.
What a prospect.
So, come on and play the game of "Escape from Arkham", Scarecrow!
The two characters mentioned in this paragraph, Ficony, the former Gotham City mob boss, cried and shouted not to leave Arkham Sanatorium, and generously sponsored a sum of money for the sanatorium.
And the newly rising Dark Knight Batman, AKA Young Master Wayne, is no longer secretly jealous of Gu Qing, but feels a little guilty. As for the reason for this change, probably Gu Qing's "background information" was leaked, and the source was the network interface he quietly installed inside the Arkham Sanatorium.
Moreover, Gu Qing's background information, which was concocted by the imaginative consulting criminals, could explain why his information was blank before that, and why he had come from Great Britain to Gotham.
In the end, Batman naturally can't do anything to people just because they are suspicious, and Gotham City is full of criminals who have done bad things waiting for Batman to catch them.
Hmm, what a beautiful accident?
A week later, Moriarty came back from the outside waves. Outside the real yΓ n, looking at his boyfriend and Eva, as well as M-o, getting along well, it is rare that he does not show an unhappy feeling. Oh, come on, the emotional intelligence of consulting criminals is still very high - it's not like the Sherlock Holmes family is basically not online, you say Mycrof, he just pretends that he seems to have a high emotional intelligence, not to mention Sherlock, whose emotional intelligence is all fed to the dog - naturally knows how to get the most out of it when the situation is not in his favor, from his boyfriend.
Let's see, the effect will be revealed.
Gu Qing came out of the real room, saw Moriarty waiting for him, his eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to come forward and kiss him, and took the initiative to say very affectionate words: "I miss you a little." β
Moriarty directly gave his little honey a hot French kiss, and when he raised his eyes again, Eva and M-o, who had originally come out with Gu Qing, were gone. The little devil smiled brightly, and the next things that are not suitable for children don't need annoying audiences~
Of course, Moriarty still told Gu Qing what he had been doing in the past few days.
"Hmm, it's related to the Shadow Warrior Alliance?"
"Honey, I really like your head melon." Moriarty said and hugged Gu Qing's head, kissed his forehead, and made a 'pop' sound, "Guess what I did again?" β
"I've been using my brain a little too much lately, and I don't want to guess, so I'll tell you to me."
Gu Qing has been talking about life with the patients these days, although they are goldfish, they are all mutated versions of goldfish, to be honest, it took a lot of effort to ...... them Say crying.
Moriarty winked at his big wet eyes and giggled, "What are you doing funny again?" Oh, and having fun with your group of patients? They knew each other better, but Moriarty didn't continue to ask Gu Qing about his own little game, talking about their big game, his own preparations, "You know what? I've always liked organizations like the Shadow Warrior Alliance, which are not for money, profit, or fame, but for a higher faith. β
"I can see that," Gu Qing replied casually, "continue." β
"You've learned to direct me now? Well, you win, and who makes Daddy always compromise with little Patrick. Since the death of their previous leader, they have entered a low ebb, but this will not be an obstacle for them to give up their faith, now-" Moriarty said in a long tone, and Gu Qing took it, "You gave them a nobler goal?" β
"I'm trying to save them from the slump, well, I kind of know how you feel when you say 'save' now, and it doesn't feel bad." Moriarty said matter-of-factly.
Gu Qing's face was not red, and his heart was not beating, and he said, "It's good if you like it." β
Moriarty didn't settle for his boyfriend, a little unhappy, "Now, it's your turn, what's your plan?" β
"Hmm-" Gu Qing said with a deep sigh, "Gotham City is going to elect a new mayor." β
"You've got a good candidate so soon?" Before Gu Qing could answer, Moriarty suddenly realized, "It's not very important that people don't choose people, right?" He just needs to be well-behaved and obedient, but not everyone can do that. So, how did you choose? β
"Do you remember when I was inspired by you to make an instrument to measure the value of luck? This time I made an instrument to measure loyalty. Gu Qing replied.
"While this may sound like serious nonsense, I'm not at all surprised, my dear, that you actually made such a device." His boyfriend is a tech nerd whose technology can break through the sky, just look at the "bells and whistles" inventions he made. "But, my dear, it's not enough to be a mayor, this is Gotham City."
Successive mayors have been in vain, especially in recent years, Ficoni has been bribed from mayor to assistant prosecutor, and then to the police in the police station. It's better now, there's a Night Knight Batman.
"Did you know that Mr. Ficoni was treated at Arkham? He decided to turn his ways, start a new life, and vowed to contribute the rest of his light and heat to the bright future of Gotham City. Gu Qing blinked, talking nonsense seriously.
- Although Fercony is now in the Arkham Asylum, #emaciated camels are bigger than horses#, he still has a lot of resources to use.
Moriarty understood the unembellished version of the phrase and pretended to admire: "It's really moving." What else? β
"If I want you to know all my plans, won't it become very boring, and you didn't ask you so much if you didn't look at me." Gu Qing sat up and combed his long hair. Moriarty lay on the bed and stared at him intently, watching Gu Qing put on his shirt and trousers, and pouted: "What do you have next?" β
Gu Qing put on his coat and said casually, "I made an appointment with a friend." β
"A friend?" Moriarty playfully repeated these two words, "Daddy is not at home, and you make a friend?" β
"Do you want to come along? Maybe it's time for the outside world to see the true face of a man who can make the heir of a large family give up his inheritance and be exiled to Gotham City, the city with the highest crime rate in the United States, and degenerate to the point of becoming the director of an insane asylum, you say? Gu Qing said this with an aria.
Moriarty was certainly interested, but, "Sweetheart, why do I think the story is a bit out of tune?" β
"That's not your delusion, I'm talking about this is a relatively normal version." Gu Qing chose a pair of cufflinks to put on, turned his head and said, "You should really look at other versions, their brains are very clear, more than I imagined." β
Moriarty's eyes flashed with a strange brilliance: "It seems that a lot of wonderful things have happened in the week that I am away. β
"That's right." The parties who were arranged watched the stories arranged by the media or the general public as small accidents, and watched them with relish, which is a good and very good mentality.
But the mentality of the people who read the story is not so good.
"Bruce, this is my boyfriend." Gu Qing introduced Moriarty to his friend who had made an appointment to eat with him, Bruce Wayne.
Bruce Wayne was stunned as he looked at Moriarty. Moriarty smiled and held out his hand to him, "Jim Moriarty, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Wayne. β
"Oh, oh, hello." Straight man Bruce Wayne seemed a little uncomfortable, and after letting go of Moriarty's hand, he sat back, but he didn't forget to greet Gu Qing and his boyfriend, "You guys can sit too." β
Where he didn't see it, Moriarty made eye contact with Gu Qing, "This is another part of your plan?" β
Gu Qing winked at him, and he admitted it. Of course, the key point in this part of his plan is not Batman, you must know that it is daytime, and it is naturally Bruce Wayne, Master Wayne. You must know that Master Wayne has a very important identity, that is, the absolute controlling person of the Wayne Group, the Wayne Group is the economic pillar of Gotham City, and in the lifeblood of a city, how can there be no economic lifeline, so the support of the Wayne Group is indispensable.
Gu Qing lowered his eyes, he felt that he had already begun to like the unique Gotham City. After all, there are very few cities like Gotham City, which has almost become independent from the United States β which, of course, the government has abandoned and left it to its own devices. If you add to that the Dark Knight, it's really unique.
Who doesn't love Gotham.
Gu Qing also hopes that Gotham in a year will be more likeable.
