Chapter 071: The Big Cuckold Scene
After confirming that no one was following him, Chen Hao bought a second-hand truck in the city and returned to the abandoned farm in the old city.
The ring of warning ice laid on the perimeter of the farm had not yet been broken, indicating that no outsiders had broken in during his absence.
Lifting the ice and opening the door of the big truck, Chen Hao moved a lot of money to the truck.
Later, the big truck of the barn was frozen again, and Chen Hao drove a truck loaded with one or two hundred million US dollars to Gotham City.
Along the way, the sun is shining.
Chen Hao took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was 1:32 pm.
IT'S STILL SOME TIME BEFORE JOKER'S ASSASSINATIONS OF JUDGE SORERO, MAYOR ROBB, AND PROSECUTOR DANT.
The truck stopped at an intersection, and Chen Hao dialed Dante's phone.
At this time, Dante was in the court's office, preparing to indict thousands of criminals.
He picked up his phone, pinned it to his ear, and asked, "Chen, what's the matter?" ”
"Is it convenient for you to talk?"
Dante was stunned, looked at the busy crowd in the office, and quietly covered the microphone: "Wait for me." ”
Trotting all the way to the rooftop, Dante asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”
From Chen Hao's cautious attitude in chatting, he vaguely caught a hint of it.
"Dante, you and Gordon's men have gangster involvement, and you must know that."
"Yes." As early as after the leak of the bank's raid, both he and Gordon suspected that the other party's men had committed traitors.
"I just got information that someone is plotting to stop this accusation."
Dante smiled, he was not afraid of those threats: "Let the horses come, even if they hire more lawyers, they will not be able to clear so many charges." ”
"No, Dante, it's not as simple as you think, they're not doing it through legal means." After a pause, Chen Hao lowered his voice: "They want to kill the judge, the mayor, and you." There are people with them around you. I can't trust anyone but you and Gordon. ”
Dante bit his lower lip, realizing the seriousness of the matter.
As Chen Hao said, if the judge, the mayor, and him all die, then no one in Gotham City will dare to deal with these accusations.
According to the law, if no one hears an appeal, they have to be released home as long as the detention period exceeds a certain time.
Dante took a deep breath: "Okay, Chen, I'll talk to Gordon about it." ”
Chen Hao responded: "It is better to move the judge and the mayor to a safe place without alarming others." And you, stay safe. ”
"Well, I will, thanks." Dante thanked him and continued: "Mayor Robb, I'm afraid it's more difficult to do, I'll try it." ”
"Watch out for the people around you, Dante. I have other things to do, and I'm afraid I can't keep you busy. ”
"It's okay, Chen, it's not your obligation, you've done enough." Dante was sincerely grateful to Chen Hao for his information.
"That's for now, goodbye."
Hanging up, Dent paced back and forth on the rooftop.
Half an hour later, he picked up his phone.
……
At seven o'clock in the evening, Harvey Dant arrived at the Wayne Building for a fundraiser hosted in his honor by Bruce Wayne.
Judge Sorero, Ms. Sorello, has been moved to a safe location by Gordon alone.
Mayor Robb is a bit of a hassle, and Gordon will be personally responsible for security.
As for Dent here, Gordon personally selected a few men who were not henchmen to form a temporary team of six people and ambush near the Wayne Building.
Today's fundraising party was dedicated to Harvey Dant, and he had to come.
Dante was not afraid of his own safety.
On the contrary, he had something else in mind.
He wanted to use himself as bait to lure criminals hiding in the darkness to show up.
Bite~
The elevator opens, and Rachel takes Dante's hand and makes her way to this floor of the party.
Seeing that Dante was a little nervous, Rachel, who didn't know the truth, laughed teasingly: "I can't imagine that the prosecutor who terrified criminals would be frightened by the fundraisers of the trust fund?" ”
Dante smiled awkwardly and didn't explain much.
"I'll miss you." Rachel seemed to see some acquaintance and left directly.
As soon as Rachel walked on the front foot, Alfred stopped Dante's path with four glasses of champagne: "Do you need some drinks to get your courage in, Mr. Dante?" ”
Dante picked up a glass of champagne from the plate, looked in the direction Rachel had left, and raised the glass thoughtfully: "Did her ex-boyfriend ask you to bring anything?" ”
The implication is that this is a party that Rachel's ex-boyfriend has for himself, and there are some scenes that I want to avoid.
Listening to this vinegary sentence, Alfred smiled gently, "It's hard to say, Mr. Dante. ”
Buzz~
With the roar of propellers, everyone's eyes were drawn to the tarmac.
Bruce Wayne, the organizer of the party, stepped out of the helicopter with several models in his arms.
"I'm sorry to be late, I hope everyone is still having fun." After a pause, Bruce looked around, "What about ...... Where's Harvey? ”
After taking two steps, Bruce smiled when he saw Harvey Dent in a suit.
"Wow, isn't this Harvey Dant, the man of the moment."
"Where's Rachel Dawes, she's a good friend of mine, come here."
This scene can be called the scene of a large-scale car accident in the vinegar altar, and the other people present felt that it was nothing, only the two parties were embarrassed.
Seeing Rachel walk out, Bruce looked at Dent with a smile on his face: "When Rachel told me that she and Harvey Dent were on good terms." My first reaction at the time was, was that guy in the super embarrassing campaign ad? ”
"What's that slogan?" I believe Harvey Dant', what a great catchphrase, Harvey, at least appealed to Rachel. ”
Harvey Dant kept a straight face, and because of the identity of the other party's host, he did not have a seizure on the spot.
"And because of that, I started to notice Harvey and what he did as a Gotham prosecutor. I believe that under his watch, Gotham will become safer and more optimistic. In Bruce's words, there is a bit of a killing meaning.
Hearing this, Dante's face was a little better, revealing a professional smirk.
"Look at this face." Bruce pointed to Dent in front of the crowd, "This is the bright future of Gotham." Come, let's applaud Harvey Dent. ”
After a round of applause, the party officially began.
Bruce Wayne made a beeline to the spacious balcony, and Rachel followed after calming Dante.
"Harvey doesn't know you, maybe he doesn't know you're playing tricks on him, but I do." Rachel's words were inquiring. "No, Rachel, I mean it." Bruce stared at Rachel's face with a sad look in his eyes: "Do you remember that agreement, you said that Gotham will no longer need Batman one day." And this day is coming. ”
Rachel once had a pact with Bruce that they would be together when Gotham no longer needed Batman.
But now that Rachel is in love with Harvey Dante, hearing Bruce reiterate this agreement, he shook his head a little embarrassedly, hoping that he would retreat: "Bruce, I can't wait for that day." ”
"It's already here, Rachel." Bruce looked into Rachel's eyes seriously and said, "Harvey is that hero, and so is Chen Hao." Without masks, they sent half of the city's criminals to prison. The rest of the criminals are only a matter of time before they are caught. ”
At this point, Rachel's mind was in turmoil, and she didn't know how to explain it to Bruce.
She knew that Bruce Wayne still loved her, but she loved Harvey Dent now.
The past was indeed good.
Unfortunately, I can't go back.
"Hey, Bruce, gotta admit, you're a party-goer. But can you let me talk to Rachel alone? ”
Before Rachel could reply, Harvey Dent pushed the door open and walked to the balcony.
Seeing this, Rachel didn't give Bruce any answer, turned around and returned to the hall with Harvey Dent.
Dante is a normal man, and he is not a fool.
Looking at Rachel and Bruce in the lobby is like an old love.
He felt the invisible hat on his head turn greener.
Bringing Rachel to the corner of the hall where no one was disturbing, Dante had a direct showdown: "Rachel, marry me, I want to know your answer." ”
Rachel opened her mouth in surprise, then shook her head helplessly, "I'm sorry, Dante, I don't have an answer. ”
Hearing this, Dante finally understood: "Well, I guess there is no answer, it is an answer in itself." ”
"No, Harvey." Rachel wanted to explain, but she was afraid that the more she depicted it, the darker it would be, and she seemed very embarrassed.
"Do you have anyone else in mind, please, don't tell Wayne, this guy is a ......"
Before Dent could finish speaking, he was knocked unconscious from behind by Bruce, forced into the storage room, and stuck the door with a steel pipe.
"What are you doing?" Rachel found Bruce's behavior simply unreasonable.
"A couple of plainclothes policemen downstairs were killed, and here they are."
As if to match Bruce's words, as soon as he finished speaking, a gunshot rang out from the elevator.
