Chapter Ninety-Three: The Will to Carry Out the Truth

The madness of the night passed, and a frenzied Gotham riot fell silent with the arrival of the day, and the madness of the night consumed their energy. On this night, there were dead and wounded, and there were those who benefited, but more often than not, the people who were in fear all day long, who could only stay at home, with the doors closed, hugging each other with their families, listening to the shouts and killings outside all night and unable to sleep until daytime.

And during the day, Gotham is as silent as a dead city, except for the train that has been running in the city 24 hours a day. And in this dead silence of Gotham City, a figure also came to the door of the house of Forlì, the deputy chief of the Gotham Police who was forced to retire, this area is basically the area where the Gotham police live, although they were forced to disarm, but all the Gotham police were in a group, and no one could provoke them, even the penguins.

The figure stood in front of the deputy director's house and knocked lightly a few times. Soon, behind the door, there was the sound of bullets being loaded.

"Listen, I don't care who you are or what you're doing here, get out of here or I'll blow you to a mess!"

For this kind of real threat, the figure standing in front of the door also showed a little smile, and then said: "Why, after taking off your uniform, you even forgot how to be a policeman, and you shot without confirming whether the bandits had lethal weapons, but it was a violation of the police regulations, Foley Pitt~"

After the words were spoken, the deputy director behind the door was also stunned, and after a long pause, he said: "Wait, why does this voice sound so much like Gordon, you go to the kitchen and stay." ”

As he spoke, there was a sound of footsteps behind the door, and at the same time, the locked door opened, and a shotgun took the lead in reaching out of the gate, and at the same time, the door opened suddenly, giving the visitor no time to react At the same time, the shotgun that was originally stretched out also retreated, opening a distance of two meters to aim at the uninvited guest in front of him. Then, the deputy chief of the Gotham Police Department was also frightened by the uninvited guest.

"James Gordon?! Is it really you?! ”

For a long time, at the home of the deputy chief of the Gotham Police Department, the deputy chief named Foley sat on the sofa, looking at Gordon in front of him, and also had a little sigh and emotion.

"Honestly, Gordon, I thought you were dead. You know, you didn't come out of the Arkham Asylum fire before, and it was understandable that the fire burned all night and you couldn't find your body. ”

"yes, I thought I was dead, really, first I was infected with the virus, then it was a fire, I was stupid about surviving, and then I woke up, and the whole Gotham became unknown to me, what's wrong with you, Foley."

"Times have changed, Gordon."

In the face of his old colleague's inquiry, the embarrassed deputy director only paused and said such a sentence. Then he drank the coffee in the cup, and he didn't know how to say it for a while, and Gordon, who appeared in front of the door of Deputy Director Foley, also understood the hidden meaning of the words that the times had changed at this time.

"They threatened the government, they threatened the military, they even threatened those superheroes. And we, we're just a bunch of cops, the most we have in our hands are shotguns, and they have the weapons of the military industry of Wayne Enterprises as logistics, and more importantly, we have lost the reason to do this, Gordon, don't do stupid things, so be it, we police huddle together, they don't dare to touch us, just wait for rescue. ”

Although Deputy Director Foley was happy to see his old friend come back from the dead, he was not stupid, he knew that his director was committed to justice. When he woke up and saw the upside-down Gotham, and the police who were the defense line of Gotham's order, he knew better than anyone what Gordon was going to do. It was because he knew that he blocked what Gordon was going to say in advance.

Directly state the gap in the level of weapons, and these policemen have no reason to insist on enforcement and uphold justice, and don't let yourself and others make this senseless sacrifice.

Gordon was silent about his old friend's statement, and it took a long time before he spoke.

"That's a good reason, Foley, remember 30 years ago, there was no Batman, the Roman Falcone had stepped back, we were patrolling the streets in police uniforms, every criminal who passed by wanted to shoot us in the back, why didn't you tell me that at that time;

20 years ago, when Batman was about to appear, the whole Gotham was basically gangsters, we wore pistols, they took rifles, we had semi-automatic weapons, they were equipped with automatic weapons, we put on body armor, they used RPGs, and at that time, you didn't tell me that either;

And now, in the moment when Gotham is in darkness again, you say to me, give up, we can't win, when did you become like this, Foley, make so many excuses for yourself. ”

"It's not an excuse, it's a fact! Gordon, look at everything around you, the people of this city have gone crazy, they're worse than anything we've been through before. What's the point of us doing this, they won't be grateful to us, and Bane they have a special medicine in their hands, a special medicine that can suppress the virus, and no one wants to feel the pain of being tormented by the virus anymore, I'm sorry, Gordon, but I let you down. ”

In the end, the deputy director's voice also became a little louder, and in the kitchen, Gordon also saw his old friend's child poke his head out, looking at Gordon and his father with puzzled eyes, not understanding why his father was so out of shape. Representative Foley's wife came over and took the little boy upstairs, leaving the space for Gordon and Foley.

After smiling at the boy with a puzzled look, Gordon looked at the colleague who didn't dare to look at him, and said again.

"Foley, do you remember the question I asked you when I partnered with me?"

The Deputy Director of Representative Foley was stunned for a moment, and his mind also recalled the question asked by Gordon, who was already an old police detective at the time, [Why do you want to be a police officer, why do you want to pursue the truth, in the city of Gotham, even if you find the truth, it doesn't mean that you can bring the prisoner to justice! Gordon's words also reminded the deputy director of Representative Foley how he had answered, and likewise, Gordon spoke it for him.

"I remember you telling me that. [What I care about is not the pursuit of the truth, but the process of pursuing the truth, once people pay too much attention to the result, it is easy to take shortcuts, take shortcuts, and do wrong things, but as long as we implement the will to pursue the truth, even if we can't convict the prisoner today, but one day, we will bring the prisoner to justice! 】”

Saying this, the deputy director of Representative Foley did not refute Gordon this time, but was stunned, not knowing how to answer. Gordon put down the coffee he had drunk, got up, walked to the door, opened it, stopped his footsteps, and looked at Deputy Director Foley, who was still silent, the most well-connected and organized colleague in the Gotham Police Department.

"The will to pursue the truth, that's what you told me, and I'm doing it now. Virus? Just because of the special medicine in Bane's hand, this time it can be a virus, what about next time? Nuclear warheads, if this is what you think is the truth, then I can tell you that this truth is false, this city, after all, only we can save ourselves, we are not threatened by anyone, even death, if you can still figure it out, then go to the backyard, take out the police uniform you buried, stand up, and tell Bane who is the real master of the city. ”

Instead of staying at the old colleague's home, Gordon, the old policeman, just closed the door and left the home of Deputy Director Foley, leaving the deputy director sitting there, constantly recalling every paragraph that Gordon had just told him, and the words he had said to Gordon when he was younger, every word kept echoing in his mind.

Similarly, after visiting his old colleague, he was rescued by Cowen in the fire at Arkham Asylum, and then Gordon, who was secretly housed, also walked down the depressed streets. Gotham is like this in the daytime, like a ghost town, only the armed forces under Bane, or the gangsters who occupy Gotham's territory are roaming, Gordon just watched this city that he had fought for all his life, being played by Bane and them.

The so-called virus is used to constantly capture people's hearts, create despair, and push the city into the abyss of depravity. And the mysterious man who saved himself told him that as long as he believed in the city, as long as he could stand up, everything could change, standing on the empty street, Gordon sighed, looked up at the sky, and didn't know how to express his feelings.

At this moment, two heavy tanks snatched from the military industry department of Wayne Enterprises stopped in front of Gordon, and several figures of armed mercenaries stood in the open hatch, aiming at Gordon, and at the same time, a figure also walked out of it, it was silent, covered in bandages, and jumped out of the tank.

"Interesting, I thought you were dead, Director James Gordon."

Looking at these uninvited guests who appeared in front of him, Gordon also calmly raised his hands and stood there.

"Like you said, let's keep silent."

"I disagree, let's go, Director Gordon."

With that, with a wave of his hand, the men led by Silent took Gordon away, and the streets of Gotham returned to calm. Except for a flash of blue lightning that appeared in the home of Deputy Director Foley, it was Wally, who was disguised as a plastic surge to disguise his identity, and at this time, he was fusing himself with the air by maintaining the same frequency as the air, and was observing Deputy Director Foley.

Watching him walk into the study, looking at every photograph and medal of his service in the city of Gotham, and then went downstairs, took out the police uniform full of medals that was placed under the bed in his bedroom, changed it into himself, stood in front of the dressing mirror, and saluted himself, Wally disappeared into the home of the deputy director of Foley, and when he reappeared, it was already in a certain building, and Cowen, just sitting there, watching Gordon, who was taken away by silence, enter the hall of the city hall.

"What Director Gordon said seems to work, but can this work, a group of cops, can they fight these guys, and they really don't need me to play?"

Looking at Kewen, who was sitting there like a god stick at this time, Wally also said there with a little worry.

As for Kewen, he was just playing with his mobile phone, looking at the black history of Batman's self-isolation that he took last night, and let out a few laughs from time to time, and after noticing Wally's embarrassment, he put away his phone, stood up and looked at the scenery outside the window and said: "Don't underestimate the will of mankind, Wally, the people of this city, they can do more than you think, and all I need to do is show them a direction, wait, and at night, you will understand why." ”

Listening to Cowen's mysterious words, Wally had no choice but to continue to merge himself with the air and keep a close eye on Gordon's situation. At the same time, in the hall of the city hall, Thomas Elliott, who was in charge of controlling all this, maintained the appearance of an alien single wind, watching his number one stand-in silently take Gordon into the hall of the city hall, while the clown was still sitting there shaving his nails with a knife.

From time to time, if you are not careful, you will cut off a piece of the flesh on your finger, and in view of its perverted physique, it will be easily repaired. Elliott looked at the other half of the body with him, and he didn't know how to solve it for a while, the clown's neuroticism made him unable to detect his thoughts even if he merged with the clown, and many times, he didn't know what the clown did, so he could only guess.

It's like the Joker found Curvin last night and backstabbed himself in a wave, he didn't find out, just stood on a high place, and with a gesture, he let his stand-in No. 1 take Gordon to Wayne Enterprises. Let the Silence have Gordon executed on the city-wide train, then cut off his head and make his way around Gotham City.

With this bloody method, the citizens of Gotham City are terrified of it. Let them understand that they can not only give freedom to the citizens of Gotham, but also make them their slaves at any time, and Gordon, who was brought here, also with a fearless face, carefully scanned every face he saw, and was only taken away by this silence.

As for Kewen, he sat there and read Batman's autistic black history repeatedly, then looked out the window and said slowly: "Tonight, let's end all this." ”
