Chapter 347: Director Gordon

During the time that Chen Lu was talking to Batman, the SWAT officers who stormed the building successfully cleared the door blocked by the terrorists. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info From outside the door, an old criminal policeman with a vicissitudes of life slowly walked in with the support of a group of juniors. Although this old policeman is dressed simply, he can give people a temperament that is not angry but powerful. That cop is Gotham Police Chief Gordon.

"Thank you for your help, Batman." Gordon greets Batman as soon as he enters, and it is because of his friendliness to Batman as a senior police officer that the Gotham City police will cooperate with Batman.

"No, Gordon, it looks like I didn't do much this time." Batman said frankly, pointing to the pile of corpses behind him and saying, "Your men have killed all the prisoners." ”

Chen Lu knew that Batman was satirizing his own approach, but he spread his hands indifferently and said: "No way, after all, our police are not equipped with guns for nothing, and we have the right to shoot some extremely vicious criminals to death." I'm sure the SWAT officers fired warning shots many times before they broke into the building. ”

Gordon looked at the corpses of these criminals with well-armed weapons, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "This doesn't seem to be something that can be done with marksmanship alone, I don't remember that I have such a capable guy under my command." ”

"Then I'm sorry I didn't tell you in advance, my superpowers awakened a few days ago, and now I'm a superhuman too." Chen Lu panicked as if he was saying something that was taken for granted, and took the initiative to hand over the weapon and put it in Gordon's hand, "If you think this will make me no longer suitable to be a police officer, then this is my gun and ID." ”

Gordon stared at Chen Lu's face for two seconds before he sighed heavily and said, "How come? We never stipulated that superhumans can't be police officers. If you're willing to continue to work for the security of Gotham City, we'd love to hear from you. ”

Like the existence of mutants in the Marvel Universe, transhumans are quite common and widespread in the DC Universe, and the public knows about it. But unlike the long-term discrimination and persecution of mutants in the Marvel Universe, the attitude of the people of the DC Universe towards transhumans is much more friendly. Superheroes with superpowers are generally highly respected, basically enjoying the equivalent of Captain America in the Marvel Universe, there are many hero memorial sculptures, and some even have their own personal museums dedicated to recording and celebrating their great exploits. Therefore, there is no need to hide the superpower obtained in the DC Universe, and it is possible to tell others frankly that you may be able to get countless envious eyes.

In short, it's a world that is just the opposite of what happened to the X-Men, and Magneto basically has nothing to do when he comes here.

Chen Lu knew this so naturally that he had awakened his superpowers, although Gordon felt that things were a bit too coincidental, but after all, there were not a few superhumans who awakened superpowers the day after tomorrow, and it was difficult for him to think of what Chen Lu's bad intentions were, so he quickly re-accepted Chen Lu's identity as a police officer and allowed him to continue enforcing the law as always.

However, out of kindness, Gordon still reminded Chen Lu: "Since you are now a superhuman, then whether you want to become a superhero or not, at least say hello to the Justice League first, I think Batman will help you with this." ”

The Justice League is the largest superhero team in the DC Universe, and its status is equivalent to the Avengers of the Marvel Universe, or even higher than its status. Because the Avengers plan, which is different from the formation of the Avengers, was ultimately proposed by the U.S. government, the Avengers were somewhat constrained by the U.S. Congress when they acted, and this eventually led to a major civil war.

The Justice League is a team of superheroes completely independent of the U.S. government, and their jurisdiction is the entire planet, and even the crisis of the planet in the parallel universe has to intervene. In the comic book incident called the Injustice League, the blackened Justice League easily controlled the U.S. Congress, so the U.S. government basically has little control over them, and the Justice League can be said to be a special organization above any sovereign national government.

"But I think I'm better suited to be a police officer." Faced with Gordon's proposal to become a superhero, Chen Lu refused without hesitation, he would eventually be an enemy of the Justice League rather than a companion, and there was no need to become one of them at the moment.

"A wise decision." Batman clasped his hands on his chest and said unceremoniously to Chen Lu: "Even if someone proposes, I will definitely oppose you joining the Justice League." You may have the ability to be a hero, but you don't have the spirit to take that responsibility. ”

In the face of Batman's denial, Chen Lu responded disapprehantly: "It doesn't matter, in my opinion, it is much better to be a police officer than to be a superhero to maintain law and order." I'm going to pull Gotham City out of the place where it has the highest crime rate in my own way, and I don't need any help from the Justice League or superheroes. ”

Gordon naturally felt the tense atmosphere between Chen Lu and Batman, and he basically guessed what had happened to make the two of them look at each other unpleasantly. Personally, he agrees more with Batman's approach of disarming criminals one by one, but Chen Lu's approach is also reasonable and legal from the perspective of the police, so he can't think of how to persuade the two for a while.

After feeling Gordon's embarrassment, Batman took the initiative to give up entanglement with Chen Lu, after all, Chen Lu is not a criminal who endangers civilians, and he doesn't have to put him in prison. Batman pulled out a hook from his belt, shot an iron hook in the direction of the roof, grabbed the eaves, quickly retracted the rope and catapulted himself into the air, and disappeared into the gloomy night sky of Gotham City in a short time.

After Batman left, Gordon sighed heavily and turned to Chen Lu and said, "I think we need to talk, Batman is our friend and not an adversary, although he has been a little too good for himself and you, but you really haven't been disputed with him." ”

Unexpectedly, Chen Lu retorted without remorse: "Director, your approach is too gentle, that's why Gotham is so chaotic, and that's why the police will be reduced to a cleaner who wipes Batman's ass." ”

"In troubled times, what Gotham needs now is not a vigilante like Batman hidden in the dark, but a law enforcement force that makes all criminals feel the restoration of Skynet." Chen Lu completely ignored Gordon's friendship with Batman, and indifferently declared to him: "A Gotham that doesn't need Batman is what this city should be." ”
