99. Bruce Wayne, the money capable

"The last time you met Gordon and chose a luxury yacht, it was on a bench in a park down the street that you talked to me...... Mr. White, you really like to do things unexpectedly. ”

Bruce sat on a bench at Robinson Park, adjacent to the Upper East Side, holding a bag of pigeon food and looking at Leo next to him.

These two young people, who also came from wealthy families and whose parents were not alive and inherited the family business at an early age, sat on a park bench and fed the pigeons......

No matter how you look at this picture, there is a subtle sense of disobedience.

"This is mainly because in front of the sole heir of the Wayne family, showing off wealth really doesn't give any sense of accomplishment."

Leo replied rather honestly.

If he had invited Bruce Wayne to his luxury yacht, he might have said, "I have a few toys like this."

And as we all know, Batman, as a money ability, is characterized by being rich.

Even with the financial backing of White Industries, Leo has to admit that he can only barely sit on an equal footing with Bruce Wayne.

It's too difficult to surpass each other when it comes to having money.

"Haha...... Mr. White, you're funny. ”

Compared with the taciturn when he incarnated as Batman, Bruce was much more cheerful when he played the heir of the Wayne family.

This can't help but make people wonder which identity is the mask he wears.

More often than not, is he playing Batman, or is he disguised as Bruce Wayne?

"Let's omit honorifics for each other, Bruce - you don't mind if I call you that, do you? Actually, I was surprised, I didn't expect you to take the initiative to contact me, after all, the last time we got along...... Not very pleasant. ”

Leo threw out a handful of pigeon food, which attracted the pigeons in the square to surround him.

Perhaps because the darkness of Gotham was hit, the dense clouds that had been gathering for several days had dissipated, and the weather was clear for the first time.

There were quite a few passers-by in the park, but they didn't seem to notice that one of the people sitting on the park bench was Bruce Wayne.

I don't know if it's because he wore a pair of glasses today?

"I don't think you're surprised at all, are you? I'll take the initiative to find you, which should be one of the things to be expected. ”

This Gotham pride is obviously not very good at chatting, or rather, he himself doesn't want to go back and forth in circles, so he directly pierces Leo's polite greetings.

Bruce had been watching each other all this time, otherwise he wouldn't have known that James Gordon had once boarded the White family's luxury yacht.

Leo's actions were exposed to his sight, and from the perspective of a bystander, it was obvious that the other party had a detailed plan and a clean style.

In less than a week after arriving in Gotham, the three forces of the underground world were almost swept away, among which Leo can be said to be the greatest.

With such a strong execution, Bruce couldn't help but look sideways.

"From the moment you came to Gotham, except for the sudden kidnapping, everything else was probably in your plan, such as enlisting the help of Detective James Gordon to fight the underworld family in this city...... You even convinced Penguin Man Oswald Copote, and to be honest, I'm a little curious how you managed to do it. ”

Bruce seems to be going to have an open and honest conversation, and it comes straight to the point.

Just yesterday, the iceberg restaurant, which is full of rich and celebrities every day, and it can be said that it is making money every day, announced that it would be closed for two weeks.

The reason for the announcement was that its owner, Mr. Oswald Copot, was ill and was going to return to the countryside to recuperate for a while.

"I'll just be honest with Mr. Copote that I have an armed army of forty men in Gotham, and that they could turn into arsonists and robbers at any moment."

Leo put the pigeon food aside and said in a relaxed tone: "You see, although this method is a bit old-fashioned, it always works when necessary. ”

Leo's answer made Bruce, who had been expecting a little bit of a stiffen, the threat of violence was certainly not what he agreed with, but he had to admit that it was indeed effective.

Even when he became Batman, he often used intimidation, threats, and even beatings to force criminals to submit.

"An armed army of forty? Are you ready to start a war in Gotham? ”

However, compared to threatening Copote, the penguin, Bruce cares more about what Leo calls the "armed squad".

He knew the identity of the other party, and he knew exactly what kind of role forty elite soldiers armed to the teeth could play in Gotham.

They can break into any part of Gotham and carry out kidnapping, assassination, and rescue missions with the precision of a scalpel.

If the logistics are in place, those rabble-like gangsters are no match at all, and they will be swept away like chickens and dogs.

"Nope. This team is just one of the weapons I use to stop the war. ”

Leo replied calmly.

He didn't take the initiative to explain that once the situation in Gotham was at a stalemate, the team would start to clear the field.

Kick out those guys who aren't qualified enough to participate in this game, such as gangsters, first!

"I know what you're trying to say, Bruce, it's like, 'This is Gotham's Gotham, and outsiders are not allowed to do anything wrong', and if you're going to say that, then please take it back."

Leo noticed the change in the young Batman's expression, and his voice was slightly indifferent: "You can't think of Gotham as your amusement park, it's not a fun game either, I came to this city to solve troubles, so of course in the most effective way." ”

"Well, I'll accept for the moment the fact that you have a private army in Gotham."

Bruce nodded helplessly, judging from the current situation, there was nothing he could do to stop Leo's actions.

The other party is well prepared, well-planned, and has no reason to stop it.

The conversation fell silent for a moment.

After a few minutes, Bruce glanced at Leo next to him, and said in a low voice: "I understand what you mean by doing all this, you want to let me know that you are on the same side as me by quickly attacking the Gotham gang, to prove your sincerity or show your strength......"

"You're mistaken, Bruce."

Leo shook his head and laughed.

With a faint signature smile on his face, he looked at the pecking pigeons, and said softly, "The reason why I asked Gordon to fight the gangsters and persuade Mr. Copot to stop his business for a while and take a good rest is only because—"

"Deep down, I know what Batman is going to do! Contact Gordon to find a reliable prosecutor, like his little girlfriend Rachel Dawes, and then arrest those criminals on the spot and put them in jail...... I don't want to see Batman and gangsters play the boring game of cop catching thieves. ”

Leo's tone was flat, but his words were very powerful.

He never thought of joining Batman's team and having fun with each other in the old tricks of cat and mouse.

Fight the gangsters, convince the Penguins, and bring peace to Gotham for two weeks, all with the sole aim of finding the Shadow Warriors Alliance.

In a turbulent city, it is difficult to track down a target, but on the calm surface of a lake, it only takes a ripple or ripple to find the location of the anomaly.

"Okay, tell me, what are you going to do?"

Bruce, who was told that he was thinking too much, did not show the slightest embarrassment on his face.

"First, we're going to Arkham Asylum."

Leo tilted his head and replied with a smile.
