Chapter 27: Gotham City with Simple Folk Customs (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
The sky was filled with deep dark clouds, a drizzle was falling, there was no sunlight, and Gotham felt like it had entered half the night in broad daylight.
Ji Xiaochen and Qiu Yu walked on the streets of Gotham, there weren't even many passers-by on the street, the cold wind was biting, and Qiu Yu, who was wearing a thin shirt, couldn't help but sneeze.
Ji Xiaochen stopped, turned around and asked, "Have you caught a cold?" ”
Qiu Yu shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just that this city makes people feel uncomfortable." ”
Ji Xiaochen said solemnly: "This city is like this, corrupt, dark, and evil...... It's hard to see hope in this city. ”
"Is there still a need for this city to exist?"
Ji Xiaochen looked up at a building not far away, which was the landmark of the city, Wayne Building, and said with great emotion: "Yes, someone has confidence in it, as long as there is such a person, then it is necessary to exist." ”
"Where are we going now?"
Qiu Yu didn't understand Ji Xiaochen's big truths, she cared more about the task than Ji Xiaochen.
Ji Xiaochen said: "We have to find a place to stay, because I think we will stay in this place for a long time. ”
"Then find a hotel."
At this time, Qiu Yu got into an alley.
Ji Xiaochen looked at this alley, it was really so familiar, because it was a place that was often mentioned in many comics and films, and it was also the place where the character of Batman was made - Crime Alley.
"Don't run so fast, be careful."
Ji Xiaochen always had a bad premonition.
His hunch was quite accurate, and when he chased into Crime Alley, Qiu Yu was surrounded by six men.
Ji Xiaochen hurriedly rushed up and protected Qiu Yu behind him.
"Hand over the money!"
The six men, some with daggers and others with iron rods, were ragged and thin, and looked as if they hadn't eaten in a long time.
Six men surrounded them and blocked their way, but only frightened the two of them, and did not rush to make a move.
Ji Xiaochen observed that their hands holding weapons were trembling, but in fact, they themselves were also very scared.
Ji Xiaochen and Qiu Yu are both extraordinary people, even demons are not afraid, how can they be afraid of these homeless people.
Qiu Yu raised her right hand slightly, and was about to use fire magic to deal with these homeless people who were bent on seeking wealth, but Ji Xiaochen grabbed her wrist, shook his head at her, and said, "You don't have to make a move, let me deal with it." ”
Ji Xiaochen hugged his fists at the homeless and said, "I'll give you a chance, hurry up and give me a chance." ”
Seeing that Ji Xiaochen was not frightened, the homeless men glanced at each other, looking at each other, as if they were all communicating consciousness in the end.
At this moment, I don't know whose stomach screamed, it was the sound of an empty stomach.
The voice also reminded the homeless that they could not go hungry anymore and that they needed money.
At this time, a homeless man with a dagger stepped forward, dangled the dagger in front of Ji Xiaochen, and threatened again: "Stop talking nonsense, if you don't take the money out, believe it or not, I'll stab you to death......"
As soon as the homeless man's words fell, Ji Xiaochen flew up and kicked under the handle of the dagger, and the dagger flew out of the homeless man's hand, just inserting it into the wall high in the air.
The homeless man was stupefied without a weapon, and Ji Xiaochen said in a cold voice: "What are you going to use to stab me to death?" ”
At this sound, the homeless man immediately took a few steps back in fright.
At this time, another homeless man with an iron rod swept over, but it was not Ji Xiaochen who swept him, but the autumn rain behind Ji Xiaochen.
Ji Xiaochen's senses were also several times sharper than ordinary people, how could he not feel that someone was sneaking up on Qiuyu, and when he turned his head, the iron rod seemed to be slowing down.
He grabbed the other end of the rod in an instant and stopped it halfway.
This homeless man was also frightened, he tried his best to regain the iron rod in Ji Xiaochen's hand, but Ji Xiaochen did not move like a mountain, he used all his strength to feed, Ji Xiaochen didn't even move his facial muscles.
The homeless man was in a hurry, and he shouted: "Let's go together!" ”
Only then did the other homeless people react and aimed their weapons at Ji Xiaochen.
The more people who come to beat Ji Xiaochen, the more people will be beaten by Ji Xiaochen.
I saw that Ji Xiaochen only took out his right foot, kicked over a homeless man, and kicked them to the ground one after another, crying bitterly.
At this time, only Ji Xiaochen and Qiu Yu were the only people standing in the crime alley.
Ji Xiaochen was still holding the iron rod, but the homeless man who was holding the iron rod also fell to the ground.
Ji Xiaochen can be regarded as having a hand, otherwise with his strength, these people will either die or be injured.
With a slight twist, the iron rod was broken in half, and those homeless people were not seriously injured, seeing Ji Xiaochen's divine power, he quickly got up from the ground and prepared to escape.
Ji Xiaochen still took out a hundred yuan bill, threw it to those homeless people, and said: "Take the money and get out quickly, don't come out to be a criminal in the future, otherwise I will be beaten once I see it." ”
Those homeless people looked at the money on the ground, they didn't dare to pick it up, and they were afraid of Ji Xiaochen.
"What? Don't want any money? ”
Under Ji Xiaochen's reminder again, a bolder homeless man picked up the banknote and ran away.
The others also hurried to follow, as if they were afraid that the man would take the hundred dollars for himself.
Qiu Yu was puzzled at this time: "Why don't you let me make a move?" ”
"You don't shoot lightly or heavily, let you shoot, do they still have a chance to live?"
Ji Xiaochen still remembered that when she first met Qiu Yu, she set fire to herself as soon as she came up, and he had never seen such a reckless person.
"Then why do you want to teach them a lesson, why do you have to give them money? You might as well just give them money. ”
There are so many problems with the autumn rain.
Ji Xiaochen explained: "That's because they need money, I gave them money, but they used this way to rob money, that's wrong, I have to teach them this lesson, let them know that they can't do this in the future, and they don't dare to do it." ”
Qiu Yu didn't seem to be listening to Ji Xiaochen's explanation, but said impatiently: "I really hate this place more and more, people come out to grab money in broad daylight." ”
Ji Xiaochen just smiled and said, "That's because they don't dare to come out at night to be criminals." ”
"Why?"
Ji Xiaochen didn't explain more, but said: "In short, be more careful in this city, like those people just now are the norm." ”
"Are there robbers everywhere here?"
"It's not just robbers, there are all kinds of criminals in Gotham City, and some criminals are quite terrifying, such as ......"
"Who, for example?"
"Like, the guy we're looking for - the Joker."
