Chapter 441: The Game Begins
It's been two days since Bruce got the joker card that night with the start of the game written on it!
That's right, although the Joker used his cards to make a declaration to Bruce about the start of the game, in reality, he didn't do anything, at least on the surface!
Since that night, Bruce has been tracking down the Joker in various ways, and in order to find the Joker, he even reopened his ultimate weapon!
At least, that's his ultimate weapon now, that's the software he developed to thoroughly listen to and monitor all Gotham City's smart devices, and he was pretty sure that when he used this system against his own morals, there would never be anyone or anything in Gotham that he didn't know about!
But is that really the case?
He failed!
As far as he is concerned, he has been a big failure, he has been listening for two whole days, but in those two days, he has not been able to find any clues related to the Joker!
It made him feel incredible!
You know, he's put all the keywords he can think of in the system, not to mention the most obvious word Joker, and any other words that can be related to Joker's upcoming game, he's added all to the keyword index!
But even so, for two whole days, he actually found nothing!
"Bang!"
He slapped his table again, and at the same time he stood up, his face full of defeat and nervousness, his face was seen by Alfred, and the wise and loyal old man was distressed.
"Master, it's time for you to rest, for forty-nine hours, you haven't rested even a minute or a second, this kind of behavior is irrational!"
"But, Ah Fu, how can I sleep, I have to admit that the clown is the most terrifying enemy I have ever experienced, and I ...... the enemy!"
At this point, he stopped, only to see him let out a long, protruding breath.
"I also know that if his game really starts, I may not be able to win from him if I don't have enough energy, but ...... But ......!"
His words stopped again, this time he thought for a long time, and finally looked up at Alfred, and at that moment, Alfred's heart twitched violently, because Bruce's eyes were almost blood-red!
"I've figured it out, Ah Fu, anyway, I know I'm afraid I can't stop this damn game before it even starts, then, I'll have to keep myself in my own state, I'm ...... I'm going to rest, sonar here, it's up to you!"
"Don't worry, sir, I'll keep an eye on it!"
Ah Fu smiled reluctantly and nodded at Bruce, who turned around and looked like he was going back to his mansion.
But he had barely taken two steps before he turned around, and he looked at Alfred again, only to see him open his mouth with difficulty, and said hoarsely to Ah Fu.
"I ...... Unwilling to ...... Hey!"
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Ah Fu to reply, he took the elevator by himself, and when he returned to the bedroom, his heart was still tightening, this failure was an extremely heavy blow to him!
Because, this time, he was completely passive, and that damn initiative was always held in the hands of the clown who was not just something!
Bruce has always been proud, even if his confusion has caused him to experience a lot of lowly life, but his heart is always proud, or in other words, that kind of pride can also be called self-confidence!
But now, he's losing badly.
At least this regular script, he really lost badly.
With this in mind, he changed into his pajamas and lay down on his bed, his gaze first over the pillow and on the portrait of Dante hanging on his wall, the portrait of Dante hanging in the bedroom by the heir of the Bruce family, which only proved that he admired Dante, but not enough to be sure of his true identity!
But for him, the painting represents not only reverence, but also a kind of vigilance, and he knows how powerful his teacher really is, because the day Dante became a god, he also went to the arena.
That battle deeply stimulated his pride, and he never imagined that there would be so many ...... on the earth where he had lived for countless years A life that is unimaginably powerful!
And all this prompted him to hang Dante's portrait on his wall, and he wanted to warn himself that whenever he saw it, he must be deeply aware of his own insignificance and bring himself closer to greatness!
With such a chaotic thought, exhaustion gradually found him, he closed his eyes, put on a sleep-aiding eye mask, more than forty hours of work made him sleepy, he felt that he would be able to fall asleep completely in the next second.
However, he may not have a chance, because his bedroom door has been opened!
"Teng!"
The moment the bedroom door opened, Bruce lunged hard, leaping to his feet and grabbing the bat knife he had placed next to the bed.
Of course, at this moment, he also glanced towards the door, although he didn't think that Alfred would disturb his rest, but in case it was really Ah Fu who entered unannounced, then he didn't want to hurt his butler by mistake.
At a glance, he flicked his right hand directly, and the next moment, three bat flying knives flew towards his target, as for his target, it was a woman wearing a black tights and wearing this cat-like mask on her head!
If Dante is here, then he must know the identity of this woman, who else can there be but Catwoman wearing a cat mask?
In the face of the rushing bat darts, Catwoman instantly made a difficult yoga move, she bent down and raised her legs, and easily walked out of danger, when Bruce was about to continue to attack him, only to see Catwoman stand firmly, she opened her small mouth, and shouted instantly.
"I'm a friend of Dante, and he commissioned me to investigate last week's bombing, and I've got the results!"
As soon as Catwoman's words came out, Bruce stopped cautiously, gave Catwoman a jealous look, and then sat on his bed with his darts in his hands.
As for Catwoman's words, he didn't quite believe it, but he had to admit that the situation he was facing now was not very dangerous, and he was confident that with his current physique, even if Catwoman had a sniper rifle hidden in his hand, he would be able to resist the bullets of the firearm.
At least, the bullet could only hurt him, not kill him.
People are this thing, with confidence, can be confident, even if it is a lonely self-appreciating madman, it is also with their own wisdom to do the confidence, in order to be crazy.
And Bruce, he has that confidence now.
"What are you talking about, miss, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation, or I'll have to report your trespass into Wayne's house to the police!"
"Perhaps, Bruce Wayne, I know you won't trust me easily, but I want you to listen to me, you're even more stupid than I thought, because smart people don't attack me in the first place!"
Catwoman said as she sat down in the chair in Bruce's bedroom, sitting lazily as if she were in her own home.
And her words left Bruce speechless.
It was true that Bruce's first move was a complete mistake, but it was understandable, more than forty hours of continuous vigilance and a moment of relaxation just now prevented him from controlling his emotions well.
However, even if his identity is revealed, Bruce will not admit it.
"What are you talking about, why can't I attack you, you are trespassing on a private house, even if I kill you like this, I don't violate the law!"
"Haha, so you're saying that Batman is actually a murderer?"
As soon as Bruce finished speaking, Catwoman said with a smile, and after she finished speaking, Bruce immediately laughed along.
"I'm Batman?"
He said, and laughed even louder.
"To be honest, I wish I was Batman, but I didn't really have that time, and you can understand that I didn't want to live up to my nightlife. ”
"So you're pretending you can't see the bat darts there?"
"Haha, is everyone with a bat dart a Batman, according to that, I dyed my hair white, isn't it still my idol demon hunter?"
"Well, Bruce, you're such a fool of yourself, then, I don't force it!"
Listening to Bruce's quibble, Catwoman tilted her head and smiled, and she pointed at Bruce as she continued.
"But I'm going to say to Batman, since you're not, then...... Goodbye, dear!"
"You can go if you want, come when you want, do you think Wayne's house is a church?"
The moment Catwoman jumped, Bruce rushed out, and the moment he jumped out of bed, Catwoman stopped abruptly.
"Okay, okay, your Dante admirer's outstretched hand is really unusual, I won't tease you!"
As she spoke, she walked over to Bruce, who reached into her tights and groped for a moment, and Bruce swallowed as she fumbled between her deep breasts.
With the sound of Sasha's rubbing, a moment later, Catwoman pulled a card out of her cleavage and threw it in front of Batman, who reached out and picked it up from the ground in front of him.
The moment Catwoman pulled out the cards, Bruce had already vaguely guessed something, and now he picked up the cards and looked at them, and sure enough, it was another clown card he had never seen before, and the same card had words written on it.
"I need all the gold in Gotham!"
Bruce softly read the cards out, and then he looked at Catwoman with a puzzled expression.
"Are you a robber, and if I'm not mistaken, are you trying to kidnap me and extort enough gold from me?"
"You can play dumb as much as you want, in short, I want to tell you, Bruce, behind Gotham for a while, there is an unprecedented terrorist force brewing, this force is far more harmful than everything in the past, and I, even though I have been out of Gotham for a long time, but they still found me, as for the cards I gave you, it is the task I must complete today!"
"Mission?"
Bruce asked in a low voice, the exploration of the Joker made him too lazy to play with Catwoman anymore, whether Catwoman was friend or foe, it couldn't change the fact that he had been exposed, right.
"Who gave it to you, and what's the point of the gold on it?"
"I'd like to know who threw this card into the hands of the kids in my orphanage, in which case I'd rush back to him and steal his head!"
Catwoman spoke disdainfully at Bruce's words, and then she sat back on the couch and listened to her continue.
"I received this card last night, when I was investigating the bombing of Bane in Gotham last week, but there was no clue about that case, and a lot of the end of the case was erased by a clever person, and I thought the worst I could do was find nothing, but when I got back to my orphanage, I ....... ”
At this, she paused in a sudden realization, and after a moment she giggled, only to hear him laugh as he spoke.
"By the way, I actually forgot to introduce myself, I'm Catwoman and I own an orphanage in the ghetto of Gotham!"
"It doesn't matter, Catwoman, what I want to know is your connection to this card!"
"What else could there be a connection, when I got back to the orphanage, all the children were already tied up, and they were piled up with explosives, and this card!"
Catwoman said as she spoke, the expression on her face becoming extremely ugly, and she glanced at Bruce's clown card with disdain before she continued.
"I know where this card came from, and I've even seen the damn clown side from afar, but don't try to find out who he is from me, he's risen so quickly and so quickly that no one in our circle knows his identity so far!"
"Then what do you want to say, what news did the clown bring to you besides leaving the cards?"
Bruce asked quietly, listening to his words, Catwoman spread her hands casually.
"No, he just told me he needed all the gold, but that wasn't possible, I guess his goal was for me to steal all the gold from the bank vaults in Gotham for him!"
"But that's an absolutely possible mission, Catwoman, don't you have any other information?"
"If I had, would I come to you?"
Catwoman said with a smile, and after she finished speaking, she gently stroked the hair of her sideburns.
"Anyway, Bruce, I have to do what he asks, otherwise I can't guarantee the safety of my children, but I am not willing to be threatened by him in vain, so I came here to find you, as for Dante, trust me, you can contact him and ask him for evidence about me!"
"So, what do you want, do you want me to protect your children, I advise you not to count on me in this regard, I'm just one person, I can't take care of all the children at all, I think, you should call the police!"
"No, no, no, no, I'm not going to call the police, because that's completely unnecessary!"
The cat goddess said proudly, and the moment her words fell, Bruce seemed to think of something!
Bruce looked at Catwoman seriously, and he suppressed his worries and asked Catwoman.
"What do you mean by no-need?"
"That means I've done what he wanted, didn't he ask for gold, so I gave him all the gold in all the vaults of Gotham, and it took me hours!"
"Damn, what about the gold, what is the contact address he gave you, where did the gold go, and how did you take it!"
Bruce yelled, his expression furious, hell, he had just stressed to Gordon not long ago that the banks and the government were the top priorities for defense, but now, they were the ones who had the problem!
At this moment, Bruce's mobile phone rang violently, and while he was guarding against Catwoman, he cautiously glanced at the phone, and the next moment, he immediately rushed to the phone to take the call.
Because this call was made by Ah Fu.
The moment it was connected, Bruce heard Ah Fu's heavy voice, and only listened to Ah Fu speak.
"There was a large-scale violence in the street in front of the city hall, and someone threw countless gold bricks there, attracting countless citizens to loot!"
"Damn it!"
As soon as Ah Fu's words fell, Bruce immediately scolded, now it's okay, the bank and the city government are all together!
