Chapter 102: Captured
Roy brought back the Death Shooter's phone with a bullet hole printed on it and handed it to Barbara. Barbara scanned the entire phone and found a lot of information stored inside.
"What is this?" Roy asked, looking at the open document on Barbara's computer.
"It looks like a building plan." Barbara Road.
Roy frowned and looked at it for a moment, then said, "It's the fundraising site." ”
"Huh?" Barbara was puzzled.
"A map of Professor Sebastian Freddy's fundraising site, I've followed the relevant reports." Roy said.
Barbara was taken aback: "So, Lawton's next goal is "
"Ten likely," Roy said, "Professor Sebastian Freddy, it looks like we need to get in touch with Director Gordon. ”
With that, he had already dialed Director Gordon's phone.
In Commissioner Gordon's office, a landline rings with an unknown caller ID.
Gordon picked up the phone: "Who?" ”
A low and strange voice sounded over there: "Director? This is the Winged Knight. I had some clues to identify a dangerous killer, Floyd Lawton, the international code name Death Shooter, who had his sights on Dr. Sebastian's fundraiser. I need you to bring enough police to the scene to provide the tightest possible guards. Remember, Freud Lawton is very dangerous and must not be careless. ”
After saying that, without giving Director Gordon a chance to reply, there was only a string of busy tones left on the phone.
Professor Sebastian Freddy's fundraiser was arguably the biggest event of the week, and the open-air scene was bustling with activity.
The fund-raising ceremony was held in a concave building, with two arms stretched out on both sides of the hall in the middle. There was a huge crowd in front of the rostrum, including many well-known figures from all walks of life in Gotham, and even some criminal giants who came to join in the excitement for their own positive image, pretending to be willing to give their hearts.
A beautiful blonde reporter wearing black glasses stood in front of the crowd and said to the camera, "This is Vicky Weil, I'm at Professor Sebastian Freddy's fundraiser." We could see that the scene was really crowded, and there were some Gotham giants that we all know, led by millionaire Bruce Wayne."
As she said this, Bruce Wayne, dressed in a smart suit, happened to pass behind her, and without looking back, he left a sentence: "It's a billionaire, Vicky, the millionaire is before the last count." ”
Bruce walked through the crowd and whispered through the transparent headset to call, "Alfred, did the on-site surveillance find anything?" ”
"Nothing, sir." Alfred sat down in front of the bat computer and said, "Maybe he saw so many police ambushes today, so he changed his mind and didn't come?" ”
"No, it won't." Bruce shook his head and said, "Both Roy and Barbara are sure that Lawton's goal is the fundraiser. I beat him once, and there is no reason to let go of the target he is targeting, he must have arrived, right somewhere, probably waiting for the moment. Keep watching with wide eyes, Alfred. ”
"Understood, sir."
As he spoke, a crisp woman's voice came from behind: "Bruce Wayne? ”
When Bruce turned around, he saw a lady in a dark rose aristocratic dress standing not far in front of him, she had blonde hair, lipstick, fair and pink skin, quite temperamental, and looked quite young, estimated to be about the same age as Barbara Gordon.
"You are"
The woman smiled and introduced herself, "Karis, Karis Kearns." ”
Bruce suddenly realized: "You are the lady Kearns who is known as the youngest councillor in Gotham?" Fortunately. ”
"I am. I've long wanted to meet Mr. Wayne, the son of Gotham, and he's really a talent. Karis smiled sweetly, "I've heard through the grapevine that Mr. Wayne seems to have been quite generous with this fundraiser." ”
"It's rare for someone like Sebastian in Gotham to come forward and organize an event like this." "That's why opportunities like this are all the more precious, and those of us who are able to do so should set an example and tell the people of Gotham that there is hope." ”
"I like your point of view, Mr. Wayne." "You know, I'm also born in Gotham from my father's generation, and I've always tried my best to do something for the city. Every day, even in my dreams, I think Gotham could be a better place. ”
"That's why you have so many supporters, and hopefully you'll keep it up, Ms. Kearns. In the same way, you will have my support. ”
"Thank you."
Backstage, Director Gordon had already briefed Sebastian about the Death Shooter and asked, "Are you sure you want to take the stage in person?" Considering today's special circumstances, it's okay if you don't have to show up in person just to be on the safe side. ”
Sebastian smiled: "Then this event will lose its most important meaning, and of course I can't back down." In addition, I believe that the Gotham police have done a good job of guarding the venue. And who did you say was the vigilante who provided the information? ”
"Winged Knight." Gordon reminded.
"Oh, yes," Sebastian smiled mysteriously, "right, you said he was somewhere in the scene?" I also want to trust him and he will keep me safe. ”
"Okay." Gordon said helplessly.
Roy, at this time, was crouching on top of the concave building, overlooking the venue.
On each floor of the building, there were several shutters open to the venue, and behind each window were blinds, and from the middle of the curtain a gun barrel would protrude from the middle of the curtain to monitor every corner of the venue. Behind each window is a SWAT officer, personally assigned by Chief Gordon to serve as on-site guards.
"Looks like Lawton hasn't come yet," Barbara said, "maybe he's not coming?" ”
Roy didn't reply, and continued to observe, his gaze as sharp as a falcon.
Suddenly, he stood up, as if he had discovered something.
"What's wrong?" Barbara asked.
"The barrel of the third to last layer on the opposite side from the fourth window from left to right," Roy said, already shooting a zipline, "The gun behind the shutter is a Scout universal sniper rifle, and no one in Gordon's police team has this gun. ”
Halfway through the sentence, the Roy man was already flying into the air, and by the time he had finished speaking, he had already stepped through the window with his feet together.
The dead shooter behind the curtain hurriedly rolled backwards to avoid it, dropped his sniper rifle, and raised the barrel on the back of his hand to shoot indiscriminately.
Roy flew to the side behind a pillar to avoid strafing. He looked around the room and saw that the policeman who was supposed to be lying in ambush at this window had been covered and tied to a pillar, and he was trembling at the sound of gunshots.
Roy flashed his darts and dodged from behind the pillar to quickly throw three darts at the Death Shooter, and hurriedly ducked behind cover. But three gunshots were heard, and none of the three darts managed to fly to Lawton's side before they were shot in half and fell to the ground, and the accuracy of his marksmanship was really incredible.
The Death Shooter stared intently at the pillar where Roy was hiding, and slowly approached, approaching the back of the pillar in a small circle.
To his surprise, when he turned to the other side of the pillar, it was empty.
The Death Shooter hurriedly looked behind him - although he didn't know how the other side did it, his years of combat experience taught him that the chances of the enemy sneaking around in circles at this time were quite high.
Yet it was empty.
But at this moment, he had already made a mistake. From the ceiling, a black shadow descended from the sky like a demon, and although the death shooter reacted quickly, it was too late to turn around and hurriedly try to raise his gun to shoot. He only had time to graze the winged knight's armor in the shoulder junction with a random shot, and he was punched in the cheek with the momentum of the fall, and he fell to the ground.
The death shooter fell to the ground and tried to raise his gun, but Roy, who had been prepared, inserted a dart into the middle of the barrel on the back of Lawton's hand, and the barrel exploded with a muffled "bang", and seemed to be scrapped.
Roy kicked Lawton in the head again, knocking him unconscious.
Taking two steps back, he asked Barbara to help him get to Director Gordon's communication channel.
"Director Gordon?" He said, "It's me, the Death Shooter." ”
