Chapter 419: Amanda's Attitude
But the penguin people are different.
Although the Colbert family is not a member of the 'Owl Court', as one of the founding families of Gotham, they are naturally not unaware of the existence of this behemoth, and they have also dealt with a lot.
The reason why Batman doesn't know much about the 'Owl Court' is because the Wayne family has become a bit pedantic in his parents' generation, unwilling to go along with the same stream, and has no ability to protect themselves, which led to them being killed by the 'Owl Court'.
Perhaps his parents knew the Owl Court existed, but were dead before they could tell him about it.
That's why Batman knew almost nothing about the 'Owl Court', and it was only by his own acumen that he noticed some traces.
The Copotes, on the other hand, have refused to join the Grand League, but they are not good at it themselves.
Even if the 'Owl Court' is not happy with them, it will not easily tear up its face with them, to put it bluntly, there is no benefit in tearing its face, and there will definitely be people who will pay the price for it, this kind of thankless thing, the 'Owl Court' will naturally not do it.
However, everyone eats together in Gotham, and it is impossible not to have any intersection at all.
In particular, the Penguin Man, as one of the most prominent underworld bosses in Gotham, has had a lot of friction with members of the 'Owl Court', and on several occasions Amanda was in charge of mediation.
So he's no stranger to Amanda at all.
"Lady Amanda, long time no see." The penguin man thought that Amanda was looking for him, so he took the initiative to say hello and explained, "I have something to deal with here, and I will entertain you when I am done, please ...... later."
Amanda paused for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Mr. Copote has misunderstood, I am here to find Lord Raymond and Miss Hallie. ”
"Huh?" The penguins were a little unexpected.
I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed for a while, but fortunately, he was extremely thick-skinned, adjusted his emotions in an instant, and quietly made a gesture of invitation to Amanda: "Please-"
Seeing the penguin's reaction, Councilor Harrison opposite him felt as if he had seen something incredible, and his heart was shocked!
He didn't know Amanda, let alone Amanda's identity in the 'Owl Court', and he didn't even know the identity of the 'Sky Eye Society', and this was the first time he had seen Amanda.
Of course, he knew about the existence of the 'Sky Eye Society' and had dealt with the 'Sky Eye Society', but with his level, he had not had the opportunity to directly deal with Amanda, the head of the 'Sky Eye Society' Gotham.
Although he had also heard that the Gotham head of the 'Sky Eye Society' was named Amanda, it was not a very uncommon name.
He didn't think in that direction for a while.
But he saw the penguin's attitude towards Amanda very clearly, and as a veteran politician, he was simply an expert in observing words and feelings, so he could not be mistaken.
When the penguin faced him, he obviously had a condescending attitude, and did not give him any face, as if he was communicating with passers-by A and B, and did not take him as a city councilor in the slightest.
But when the penguins faced this 'Lady Amanda', not only did they not have any condescension, but they were very polite.
This kind of politeness may not be flattering, but it is usually only seen when dealing with people of equal or higher status than himself, and Congressman Harrison would never expect to see such a side in the penguins.
"Who the hell is this woman......
Councillor Harrison guesses Amanda's identity in his mind, and wonders why Amanda came to Harley and Raymond.
Amanda didn't know why Raymond and Hallie were here at the Penguin, and thought that Harley had come to catch up with the Penguin, an 'old friend', and didn't pay much attention to it.
Seeing that the penguin didn't make trouble, she didn't say much, looked at Raymond and said, "Your Excellency Raymond, I'm sorry to disturb you-"
"Discussed?" Raymond didn't seem to mean to be polite to Amanda and asked, glancing at her.
"Yes!" Amanda said respectfully.
"Let's talk about it." Raymond said casually.
"The one who proposed to move Mr. Floyd's daughter this time is Lanzel, the spokesman of the Monroe family, he is one of the only seven core members of the Supreme Council, as long as you give an order, his life will be Mr. Floyd's, what do you think?"
Amanda looked at Raymond cautiously, perhaps for fear that Raymond would not believe it, and she added: "We have some video records of that meeting, if you don't believe it, you can take a look at the records, this incident is indeed because of Lanzel." ”
After saying that, Amanda waited respectfully for Raymond's reply, as if waiting for the trial.
Let's not talk about how Raymond is, but what is certain is that at this time, Congressman Harrison and the Penguin people were shocked!
Congressman Harrison is not aware of the existence of the 'Owl Court', but he will not be unaware of the Monroe family!
This family, like the Quinn family, is also a political family, but it is so high that it is not known where to go.
The Monroe family has produced two terms as mayor of Gotham, dozens of city councilors, and is also one of the first political families, with a long history of existence, second only to the founding four families of Gotham.
Lanzel is the speaker of the Monroe family's generation, and Congressman Harrison also knows this 'big man'.
Because Lanzel, in addition to being the voice of the Monroe family, is also the current vice president of the Gotham City Council!
The only thing that puzzled Congressman Harrison was what Amanda meant by the Supreme Council and the seven core members.
There shouldn't be such a thing in Gotham City government, and if there were, he wouldn't be unaware of it as a current councilor.
But no matter what, he can basically be sure that the Lanzel that Amanda is talking about is the Deputy Speaker Lanzel he knows, and this is a big man who can shake Gotham by stomping his feet!
Even the penguin man in front of him, who frightened him, would give Lanzel some face, because although the Monroe family is not as powerful as the Colbert family, it is also a level, and the penguin people will naturally not treat Lanzel like this.
However, listening to what Amanda just meant, as long as the half-race young man named Raymond in front of him said a word, Lanzel's life would be gone?
Since when has the life of such a big man been so worthless that it has been reduced to a condition that can be used for negotiation?
If he hadn't seen the penguin's attitude towards Amanda, he would have wondered if this Amanda would be the actor Raymond had hired to pretend.
But now he was vaguely convinced......
