Chapter 14: The Death Knell Live

Wei Wei nodded, male anchor, when he was frightened, he exaggerated. I didn't expect Pete to be quite perceptive, he usually looks five big and three thick, but screaming is no different from other little men.

"Good, albeit a little too much." Vico commented, pointing out a few aspects of the performance that she felt were loopholes: "It's just that the screaming dragged on too long and was too abrupt." If the audience turns on the TV loudly, you will scare them, so when calling, the tone can be sharp, but the volume should be slightly pressed, and try not to use post-editing, which is too troublesome. ”

Pete was completely stunned at this point, maintaining that expression motionless.

Vico walked over and pushed him: "Okay, go back to the car and cut the tape first, and I'll teach you slowly when I have time, your expression seems to be telling me that I have seen a ghost." ”

As he spoke, Vico himself laughed, although there were corpses everywhere, there was no such thing as ghosts.

But then, another voice suddenly appeared behind her, as if it were in her ear.

"His expression is not to tell you that he has seen a ghost, but that he has seen me."

“!!!”

Vico stiffened, and kept his back to her in the depths of the police station hall, unaware that someone had unknowingly come so close behind her.

At this time, the only person who can still appear here in this environment is probably the murderer, right?

Why didn't the gang leave after killing people this time, it's different from the past!

Vico wanted to cry without tears, she guessed that there were probably countless guns pointed at the two of them at this time, so Pete didn't move.

"Vikovali, I love your show."

The voice spoke slowly, as if it were floating behind her, from side to side, but she didn't hear any footsteps at all.

"Huh..... Hehe..... That means everyone loves me, and so do you? Don't hurt me. ”

Vico laughed dryly, but he didn't think so in his heart, did he have a gangster boss or a psychopathic murderer fan? The clue this time is a trap, just to catch yourself and do something like that?

She doesn't want such fans at all!

"Turning around slowly, I just have plans to go on TV."

Following the voice's instructions, Vico slowly turned around, and she immediately showed the same expression as Pete.

Behind him were not the imaginary thousands of troops, densely packed with muzzles, but only one person, who was hugging his chest at this time, quietly watching them.

But this one man is even more terrible than hundreds of gangsters, because he is the death knell!

What appeared in front of her at this time was naturally Su Ming, who originally planned to steal their car while the two of them went in for an interview, but when he heard the female reporter introduce herself, he changed his mind.

He asked Cindy to take Barbara to take a detour to the car to wait for him, and he had to borrow not only the TV station's car, but also the reporter.

Although the Vikwali of this world is somewhat like the setting of the new 52 world, becoming a TV anchor rather than a reporter for the Gotham Gazette, it is undeniable that this woman is not only eloquent, but also lucky.

She first appeared in the comics in early DC in 1948, and she was one of Batman's previous girlfriends, and she was the only one of Batman's many girlfriends to survive in the days without Catwoman and Talia.

How lucky was she? It's like being treated like a child of the plane.

Every super villain treats her with courtesy, and the ones who want to deal with her are little minions, and there is no threat at all. She found a random boyfriend, it was Bruce, the richest man in Gotham, and she wanted big news, so she found Batman.

Su Ming remembers that it should be the 1989 Tim Burton version of the Batman movie, which is about a time when the Joker planned to blow up Gotham City and make the Bat feel his pain, and when everyone was busy going out of the city for refuge, she went the opposite way and ran to interview the Joker herself.

The clown was also intrigued by her madness, and happily accepted an exclusive interview, exchanging his ideas and ideas with her, and letting her follow her all the way and witness everything about herself and the bat.

Su Ming still remembers the lines from the movie, when the clown showed her the super bomb, she applauded like a little girl.

"Mr. Clown, you make such wonderful things, oh, you are so powerful, purple, I love purple."

I don't know if she's talking about the purple bomb or the clown in the purple suit.

If it weren't for Batman's defeat of the Joker in the end, Su Ming felt that Vico would probably become a character like Harry.

Since then, she has also shown a mad interest in darkness in the comics, interviewing numerous Gotham villains, including illogical lunatics like Two-Face, but each time unscathed, and everyone has a good time talking to her.

The Joker has kidnapped all the people close to Batman, but he has never kidnapped her, which is also a fan in DC Comics.

Su Ming unexpectedly ran into Vico, who was minus 11 on the earth, at this time, so he might as well use her fame.

"Is it live now?" He asked Vico.

"No, we're recording it, and we haven't had time to edit it yet."

Wei Ke didn't understand why the world's number one killer asked this, did he not want his whereabouts to be revealed? So she immediately explained that there was no live broadcast, but a video recording.

Su Ming under the mask didn't know what his expression was, but he said again: "I want to broadcast live." ”

He pulls out his gun and points it at Pete, but the question is for Vico, as if he is going to kill her partner if he doesn't answer.

"We don't count what we say, we have to agree to it."

Wei Wei hurriedly waved his hand, as if he was afraid that he would shoot, in her opinion, a killer like Death Knell, every move has its own ideas, since he did not kill himself at the first time, but wanted to broadcast live, it seems that he is safe for a short time.

"Okay, let's go back to the car, there's still someone waiting."

In this way, Barbara and Cindy, who were in the carriage, watched Su Ming escort the two reporters out at gunpoint, confused, and couldn't figure out what his purpose was for a while.

Even Cindy couldn't think of it, but she always felt that her self in this other world seemed to have a lot of ideas that were different from her own.

Back in the carriage, although Vico was surprised by the fact that there were two death knells, she would not doubt the authenticity of the death knell, and there were still corpses all over the ground outside!

They also kidnapped Barbara, the daughter of the police chief, and don't know what they were planning? But under the gun, she and Pete still honestly completed the editing of the previous video and sent it back to the station.

...........

At this time, there were few people on Gotham TV, and most of the midnight programs were computer automatic play of some old movies, or boring TV shopping.

On the news channel, the studio host still needs to broadcast the news 24 hours a day, but what else is there to say in such a ghost weather? It's nothing more than a meteorologist's set and says it every half hour.

In-studio .......

The director who was on duty at this time received Vico's video, she pursed her lips, she didn't even want to look at it, but this is still not her word, and it is impossible to do something to cover the sky in front of everyone.

She and a few editors and staff members could only click the play button, and then the scene in the footage shocked them, and it seemed that Vico had found the big news again.

The director gritted her teeth, she was going to make a small report to the director tomorrow, because the Vico duo stole the TV station's OB car.

Now it seems that if the director knows that they have found big news, let alone punish them, this is the rhythm of giving them awards.

"Damn, count yourself in luck!"

The director thought of it in his heart, but in the eyes of everyone, he still handed over the video to the editor, and asked them to start writing for the host in the live broadcast room........

It's a new round of news at 12:30, and the night shift hosts in the live broadcast room began to drink water and prepare, they are like workers on the production line or cattle and horses pulling mills, several live broadcast rooms, and several hosts take turns.

The No. 1 live broadcast room was broadcast from 12 o'clock to 12:27, and he rested for half an hour, and his No. 2 live broadcast room continued to broadcast until 12:57, and then exchanged.

Seriously, there really wasn't much to watch the midnight news show, but for the sake of his salary, he still had to put on the most professional smile.

But his eyes lit up when he was reciting the script at this time, because he found new information, and it was his first round of broadcast, which is also a good thing.

Well, it's like a little reward in a mundane and numb job, about the same as winning ten dollars in a lottery ticket.

As the red light in the studio turned on, he showed his perfect smile:

"Welcome everyone to continue to pay attention to the Gotham City TV news channel, the latest news, in the early hours of tonight, a group of thugs stormed the Gotham City Police Station, both sides suffered heavy casualties, the incident is still under investigation, please watch the report sent by this reporter from the front."

The choreographer made an OK gesture to indicate that he had cut into the video, but the host did not relax, but also watched the video.

In the video, there are traces of fighting everywhere, and the police station has completely become a battlefield, although such a scene is not uncommon in Gotham, but it is the first time that it has happened in the police station.

Pete's camera is used very well, the scene is terrifying, countless bored viewers in front of the TV, seeing such a bloody scene in the middle of the night, have exclaimed, in the stormy night, even ordinary criminals can't go out, and they are also looking for some exciting pictures.

"Director, Vico sent a live broadcast application." An editor with headphones said.

The female director gritted her teeth, looked at the ratings on the instrument next to her, which looked straight up like an electrocardiogram after the resurrection of a dead man, and squeezed out two words in her mouth with hatred:

"Give it to her!"

The host received the signal, nodded slightly to show understanding, and after playing the video, the camera cut back to the studio.

"We now have new news about the front, and now the studio will be connected to the reporter Vikwali in the front."

The signal was turned on, but what appeared in front of the camera was not a familiar smiling face, but a black and yellow mask.

"Hello, Vico....... Wait, oh! Oh my God! It's the death knell! ”

The host, who was smiling kindly and waiting to connect with Vico, jumped up from his chair screaming as if he had been scalded by boiling water, and retreated again and again until his back was against the wall, and there was no way to escape, like a frightened child.

But he couldn't take his eyes off the screen, and the yellow-black armor seemed to have magical power, attracting all his attention.

"Hello, host." The death knell in the camera tilted his head slightly, as if to say hello, and then he said in an impassioned tone: "Good evening!" Gotham! ”

Maybe somewhere in the corner of Gotham, there will really be a madman saying into the TV: Good evening, Death Knell.

But obviously the people in the studio were not among them, they were like they were choked by the throat, and they couldn't say anything.

Su Ming didn't care if these people had the courage to communicate with him, he waved the gun in his hand and motioned to Pete to give him a vision: "As you can see, the Gotham Police Station is finished, but unfortunately, the box is not the chocolate I want, hehe." ”

The joke was not funny at all, and everyone who watched TV felt a wave of fear.

When the camera zooms out, Deathstroke can be seen holding a pistol to the head of a girl who is still in a wheelchair, huddled in a ball, her eyes tightly closed and shivering.

"This is the daughter of the Gotham Police Commissioner, Barbara Gordon, and maybe any of you know her."

Su Ming tapped his helmet with the body of his pistol, acting like a psychopath, to further deepen their fear in order to more conform to the terrifying image of the death knell in the Gotham people.

"I'm looking for Director Gordon, but there's another group of people who kidnapped him first, and here, I'm going to tell this group something."

He took a few steps forward and leaned closer to the camera to add to the oppression: "You'd better put Gordon in my hands, he's my target, I'm going to live." Otherwise, no matter the ends of the earth, I will find you, slowly, kill you one by one, I guarantee that the process will be the same...... The pain is immense! ”

With that, he shoots Barbara, who collapses from her wheelchair and lives unknown.

Many empty viewers in front of the TV couldn't bear to cover their mouths at this time, and fear once again came over them after Rigoletto was arrested.

This naked bloody killing, and the madness of Rigoletto, are two different kinds of fear.

The camera pans to Deathstroke again, his muzzle still smoking, no one would think that he would miss so closely, that poor girl Barbara is dead.

"Anyone with clues about these men in black, or if you know the whereabouts of Director Gordon, please contact the TV station and they will relay it to me. I'll grant the clue the person who provided the clue a wish, you just tell me who you want to die, and that person won't survive the next day. That's a $2 million payment at the price of my services. ”

"Oh, and one more thing, guys on the TV station, please keep my footage on the news 24 hours a day, if you can't...... The police station behind me is the end of your TV station. ”

Pete gave another close-up of the police station, and all kinds of miserable pictures were vividly displayed at Su Ming's request, and everyone in the studio subconsciously replaced their faces with the corpse over there, and swallowed their saliva in unison.

The signal is interrupted.

The host in the studio screamed and scurried around like a headless fly.

"It's over! Finished! The death knell is coming to kill us, and I'm going home! Go home! ”

His performance was broadcast to every household, but at this time, no one who watched the news channel laughed at him, and they all felt like someone was breathing behind him, and they were creepy.
