All the chaos will eventually calm down, just like the farce that spread throughout the city a few days ago, and after a few days, it will become normal.

And under all the calm, there will always be chaos.

It's like Gotham today.

On the surface, it is still glamorous, trying all its strength to show its luxury......

Just like ever......

However, there seems to be something different.

This is reflected in the daily newspapers.

What dominates the headlines is no longer headlines such as "The Mayor's Search" and "The Completion of a Certain Building".

Gradually, it was replaced by some interesting events.

Robberies in alleys, bodies found in the early hours of the morning, explosions in the suburbs at midnight.

These things come and go, and seem to be a kind of embellishment of this Gothic city.

Well, these are understandable, and some are not so easy to understand.

It's as if on the street, you find a person completely frozen into ice, or a poor guy suffocated by a few vines that come out of the dirt, the traffic lights on the road have inexplicably turned into green question marks, and between the buildings, someone has seen a figure crawling like a cat

All sorts of strange phenomena appeared in Gotham, as if something was flowing out from under the gorgeous cloak wrapped in it, exuding a trace of a strange smell that was getting stronger and stronger.

And as early as possible, a new headline appeared in the Gotham Daily.

One person died

...... Laughed to death.

Although it sounds a little ridiculous...... However, the photo of the deceased under the newspaper makes people have to believe it.

The man was indeed laughing, his facial muscles spasming, tugging at the corners of his mouth at an unbelievable angle, his bloodshot eyes...... Just staring at everyone who sees this photo.

Among them...... Naturally, this also includes Hallie, who is reading the newspaper. Quinn.

She held the newspaper tightly in her hand, and with the other hand, she gently stroked the dead face distorted by the smile in the photo, and in her eyes, which had never had any real emotions, she showed a trace of emotion because of this terrifying photo.

"Finally...... Found you. ”

......

......

The North City of Gotham City.

Like all old towns, there are remnants of the beautiful buildings of half a century ago, the popular business districts, and the wide roads...... Well, these evaluations are all from the mouths of residents over fifty years old, and now here, there are only a large number of old buildings left, and it is a pity to want to bulldoze them, but it is useless to stand like this, just like those elderly residents who are unwilling to leave, holding on to the scenery of their youth and not letting go, but others in addition to giving you politeness and respect, in fact, they don't take you seriously at all.

And in this area, there was one of the largest playgrounds in the whole of Gotham at that time.

Hear me clearly, I'm talking about the ......

Now it is a "garbage dump" that will not be visited by a few people all year round.

Weeds everywhere, rusty rides. A roller coaster in disrepair, the merry-go-round consumes too much electricity, and the last time it was turned on was three months ago.

These things are piled up on the ground like a breath, and it seems that this place is not as good as a garbage dump, at least the garbage dump does not charge rent.

Today, however.

This amusement park is unexpectedly brightly lit, and the director turns on all the facilities and lights that can still be moved here, and a cold look at it will even make people think that this amusement park has returned to its former glory.

Of course, all of this is just an illusion of a return to the past.

This is an illusion for a person who has a brain problem...... This man is a madman, a fool, in short, he is definitely not a normal person.

After all, how could a normal person come up with the idea of buying such a dump?

Under the Ferris wheel, the dense lights make people's eyes hurt.

Two people stood side by side in the light.

One of these two men is the director of this amusement park...... And the other one is the madman.

He wore a purple top hat, a crumpled purple gown, and carried a gentleman's cane that looked very high-end, but it looked dirty, slightly hunchbacked, and two mismatched socks exposed under its trousers, so that this person could feel the weirdness of his face just by looking at the silhouette.

Moreover, this is still without looking at the face.

The headmaster didn't want to look at this man's face, because at the beginning, the headmaster tentatively swept his gaze over the sharp chin under the brim of the other's hat, and then, the obviously sickly pale complexion, made him feel an inexplicable sense of panic in his mind.

Truth be told, if this guy wasn't the only fool in 5 years who wanted to buy the entire playground, the director would have kicked him out at the first second.

"What do you think?" The director said expectantly.

"Hey, hey, hey." The man let out a shrill laugh, as if his throat had been burned by something: "Why do you always take me around this area, is it better to say that there is a worse place than here?" ”

"How...... How can it be. The director immediately retorted, but the weakness of the heart was already overflowing.

"Aha-" The man seemed to smile even more happily, "I like people like you, it's ...... It's easy to debunk your lies, but you're a fool who doesn't know anything about it. ”

The director swallowed unnaturally, wondering if he should beat him up if this guy didn't buy this place in the end.

"Ahh

"No...... I..... I didn't think so. ”

"Oh, that's good." The man still said in a strange tone, "Actually, this place is so bad, I can't buy it." ”

"What!" The director frowned: "Did you come all the way here to make fun of me?" ”

"Ahahahaha———— you see, I said it, you are not suitable for lying, and now I have added another one, that is, you are really too easy to deceive."

Suddenly, he burst out laughing inexplicably, as if laughing to the point where his stomach hurt and he had to bend over.

The director looked at the other party with an inexplicable expression, and he didn't even know why the other party was laughing.

"Haha-ha-well, it's nice here."

The man finally cleared his breath and said, then held out a hand...... I made a handshake gesture.

"So, let's ...... Deal......"
