The moment she saw the clown, Barbara subconsciously reached for a gun at her waist - and then remembered that she had changed her clothes and didn't have a gun with her.

Probably shortly after Damian left his room at Wayne Manor, Barbara climbed out of the ledge, she had to see her father, and more importantly, she might be able to see her mother.

As smart as an oracle, how could she not have imagined that in this universe further in the timeline, her mother is very likely not dead, and she really wants to see her mother too much.

She knew that her father should still be working hard in the police department at this time, and as the only good policeman in a megacity who worked diligently, Gordon would never have an endless job.

At the end of each night's duty, Barbara walked downstairs to the police station and looked up to see the familiar lights in Gordon's office room.

Barbara went, but the lights didn't come on. She was wearing the uniform of a bat girl, so she was a little hesitant to climb over the wall, but she didn't hesitate for long, and the doorman on night duty at the Gotham police station came to her and asked her what she was doing here.

Barbara doesn't know why the Gotham Police Department in this universe has not broken its surveillance, usually it is broken, only the more than a thousand installed by Batman are easy to use, and those surveillance images can only be seen in the Batcave, and it is impossible for the janitor to know.

Barbara guessed that this uncle might be Batman's mysterious informant, but she couldn't care so much at this time, and Gordon was not in his office at such a late hour, which meant that he must be out on duty, which meant that there must be something very dangerous and urgent, most of which were related to Batman.

The lunatics of Arkham Asylum have fled en masse again? Did the Joker kidnap Eucalyptus again and force Batman to show up?

Mysterious toxins in drinking water or air? Barbara's mind was filled with countless horrific thoughts, so she didn't have time to delay any longer, so she grabbed the doorman's arm and asked, "My father...... I mean, where did Sheriff Gordon go? ”

"He's home." In an instant, Barbara's heart sank to the bottom, and it is very likely that the worst has happened, her mother or her in this world has been kidnapped, and the Joker, the scarecrow, and Hugo may be the murderers.

With this in mind, Barbara walked along the familiar route to her home, but knocked on the slightly old door, and it was a stranger who opened the door.

Barbara asked them where James Gordon had gone, and they only said that they had heard the landlord mention it, and it seemed to be the name of the previous tenant.

Barbara had to find the landlord who lived upstairs, and then learned that Gordon had already moved out of the area, and heard that he had bought a new house in the North End.

Barbara hurried to the North End, but fortunately it was not too far away, and after passing through the streets full of luxury cars, her eyes fell on the Gothic fence gate, on which hung a sign that read in flowered English

"Gordon Manor". Barbara deftly climbed over the fence from the garden to the manor's building, and climbed along the drain to the second-floor balcony, listening to the sounds coming from the brightly lit interior.

"My father will be present at my cousin's wedding, and I will have to go back to Sicily, and he will not allow me to be absent from my cousin's wedding without knowing the etiquette, after all, my uncle will come when I am engaged......"

"But the planning meeting for the concert event is really important! Yin Wensi! You're exceptionally talented at this, and where in Gotham can you find an artist as knowledgeable as you? ”

"But I understand opera, not rap."

"It's the same thing!"

"Okay, Luo Yin, don't be too anxious......" Barbara could hear that it seemed to be Gordon's voice, but it was not so hoarse, and it sounded much younger.

"How can I not be in a hurry? Now that the album is gaining momentum, in less than a week, Billboard will be at the top, and it is very likely to hit Gremei this year, which is a great time for a breakthrough in Gotham's tourism industry......"

"Then let's move the date of the planning meeting a little bit further...... Who's there! As Barbara took a step forward, she saw a black muzzle open the curtain and strike her head.

The moment the father and daughter looked at each other, both of them were stunned. To Barbara's shock, Gordon was a little too young.

Of course, Gordon is not a young man, he is much older than Bruce Wayne, but

"Young" does not mean that there are a few wrinkles missing from his face, but that his temperament is very different, and he is simply energetic.

Barbara's impression of Gordon had long been in tune with the city's style, and God hadn't given him any more leniency in such terrible darkness, he was as tired and old as all Gothams, but not as numb as they were.

But it is not without reason, Gotham's last life of conscience is soaked in the blood of the unjustified dead and the panic of the people who are struggling to survive, which eats away at him day after day, making the years even more merciless to him.

Barbara had never met, and never thought she would meet, a red-faced Gordon - the kind who didn't seem to have worked all-nighters lately, or even slept well without nightmares for at least three days.

Gordon, on the other hand, was shocked by Barbara's appearance, and blurted out, "Barbara...... Sorry, I mean, are you Barbara's sister? How do you dress like this? Barbara knew the one in his mouth

"Barbara" was supposed to be her mother, and she didn't even care about the shock in her heart, nor the muzzle of Gordon's gun, she took a big step forward, rushed out of the curtain, grabbed Gordon's arm and said, "Where's my mother?" ”

"Your mother?" Gordon looked at her suspiciously, he looked Barbara from head to toe, and then said, "With all due respect, Barbara can't have a daughter your age, or maybe you're her niece?" ”

"I ......" Barbara's confused mind didn't know where to start, and Gordon took a step back and let Barbara in.

Seeing that Gordon had guests, Luo Yin and Yin Wensi, who were sitting on the sofa, stood up, Yin Wensi nodded to Gordon and said, "You talk, let's go first." With that, he and Royin left, and Gordon invited Barbara to sit on the couch, and Barbara told him about the other universe and Batman sending them here.

The Batgirl glanced at the handrails of the delicate withered flowers in her hands, and in her impression, the Gordon family had never been so generous, and her childhood and youth were spent in anxiety about making ends meet but always failing.

Gordon put his finger to his chin and said, "Bruce told me about another universe, but I didn't expect to have a turnover so soon, so I'm still married to Barbara?" Sure enough, I made the right decision to text her that day. ”

"James!" Barbara raised her voice and exclaimed, "What's going on with this manor?" Why are you so rich? ”

"I didn't buy it." Gordon waved his hand and said, "Alberto gave it to me, don't ask me why I took it, you can't let the godfather hide in the dark and dilapidated apartment building every day and talk to me, right?" ”

"Alberto? Holiday killers?! ”

"Oh my God." Gordon slapped his forehead and said, "Stupid girl, you can't call your godfather by name outside, or you'll get shot!" ”

"I'm a bit of a mess!" Barbara looked at Gordon and said, "You're really going to have to tell me what's going on in this universe......"

"Of course you can, but have you had dinner?"

"I'm ......" Barbara choked again. Before she could reply, she saw Gordon stand up, so Barbara looked up at Gordon and said, "Where are you going?" ”

"Have a barbecue, let's go, I'll take you with me, but you'll have to change out of this strange outfit first." Barbara glanced down at her bat girl uniform and asked a little blankly, "What's wrong with this dress?" Isn't it good? ”

"It's good, it's just a little too similar to Batman, and the barbecue stall owner will think you're one of those avid Batman fans, you know? That's not good. With that, Gordon walked to the side of the reception room and picked up the phone, and said, "Hello? Mr. Spencer Jr.? It's me, can you help me bring me a set of women's clothes? Just size one-size, casual attire not dresses...... No, no, no, don't send me another cart of luxury bags! Isn't it enough to scare a Barbara? After a while, Barbara saw a group of gangsters in black suits walk in and handed Gordon a box, Barbara's heart had already risen to her throat, and she was really afraid that Gordon would ask in the next second

"How about the goods" or something like that. When the box was opened, there was a set of clothes, women's casual sportswear, and a puppy printed on the chest.

After the gang members left, Gordon handed Barbara the clothes and said, "Unfortunately, your mother is working in Washington, D.C., and I haven't fully recovered her so far, so I'm afraid you won't see her anytime soon." ”

"However, I can take you to meet some of my old friends, and I really have to tell them that I was right to send compound text messages at that time, and that I made a wise decision to save my lifelong happiness, and not the death throes of some abandoned stray dog." Barbara's mind wasn't quite clear yet, but she still took her clothes and went to the cloakroom, listen, the cloakroom!

Barbara sneered that Gordon's house actually has a cloakroom! As soon as she walked into the cloakroom, she knew what Gordon had said on the phone about not sending her a carload of luxury bags, and the value of everything she could see in this cloakroom alone would probably buy her old house in the universe Gordon and the apartment she was renting now.

Barbara gasped as she changed her clothes, and as she walked out, Gordon complimented, "You're at least ten years younger." Barbara tugged at the edge of her tracksuit a little uncomfortably, as if she had returned to the time when she was always a little girl with short clothes, and she followed Gordon out of the house and got into a Bentley.

"You're like a black cop." Barbara couldn't help but say, "The kind that makes a lot of money by maintaining relationships with gangsters." ”

"I am." Barbara choked.

"Otherwise, where do you think luxury cars and mansions come from?" Gordon held the steering wheel, looked ahead and said, "They're all from the gang." With that, he raised his hand to look at the time, and Barbara immediately gasped, the watch in Gordon's hand should be able to buy his house and the building where she rented an apartment.

Gordon suddenly laughed brightly, looked at Barbara in the co-pilot and said, "You are really like your mother, guess I asked her for reunion, and she saw this situation after returning to Gotham, what did she do?" ”

"Surprised?"

"What's more, she slapped me in the face, turned around and left." Gordon turned his head back, sighed lightly, spun the wheel and said, "I never dared to hope that she really loved that part of me, the things that drove me to Gotham, some call it stupidity, some call it justice, maybe it's the same thing." ”

"Then why are you ......"

"As I said, it's a social need, and if I let those gang bosses break two pairs of shoes on the creaky old staircase, they're really going to demolish that building to build me a manor." Gordon turned his head to Barbara and gave Barbara a smile she couldn't understand, then turned his head back and lowered his eyes.

"Having asked the Lamb will make you know that I have not obeyed them, but have spared them, and that I have received not a reward, but a sacrifice."
