Chapter 170: Who's the villain and who's embarrassed

"Were you talking to me just now? Small bats. ”

Hearing Depp's words, Bruce reacted that the person in front of him turned out to be Depp, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

He said: "You came in time enough, how do you say there is a saying in China?" Say Depp, Depp to. ”

Joseph also said in surprise: "Long time no see, Mr. Depp." ”

Oswald said excitedly: "Mr. Depp, I have been saving up reports and plans for several months, and I am ready to show you. ”

Robin threw himself directly into Depp's arms and said, "Daddy! Why did you just come back, did you forget Dick? ”

Depp touched Dick's dog head and said with a fatherly smile: "Of course not, Selena and I miss you every day!" ”

"Really? Then Daddy, what gift did you bring me when you came back this time? ”

"It's not early today, it's time for you to go home, you still have to go to school every day!"

Compared to the excitement and excitement of this group of guys, Clark asked a little confused: "Depp?" Who's that? ”

Clark now, only knows Depp's name in the town, Chris Reeves.

Bruce said to Clark: "Don't you know that the guy next to you is called Depp?" ”

Clark shook his head and said, "Depp? Is this your real name, Big Brother Levi. ”

Depp flickered: "In Gotham, my name is Leonardo Depp. But in our hometown, my name is Chris Levi. ”

Our hometown......

Clarke immediately understood what Depp meant.

Big Levi is saying that his name on Earth is Leonardo Depp, just like Clark Kent.

And in our hometown, that is, Krypton, his name is Chris Revi.

Yes, it must be!

Moreover, since Big Brother Levi did not explicitly say anything about Krypton, it is very likely that it is not yet time to announce this matter.

In that case, I'm going to keep this secret for Big Brother Levi too!

Bruce wondered, "Home? So, this young man is your fellow countryman? ”

This time, without waiting for Depp to speak, Clark replied directly: "That's right, Levi and I... Well, big brother Depp, it's a fellow countryman. Our hometown is in the small town of Smallville. ”

"I see, I didn't expect you guys to come from there." Bruce asked with a bit of a headache, "Depp, Levi's and... How many identities do you have? ”

Depp spread his hands helplessly and said, "I think you already have the answer in your heart, don't you?" ”

Since Depp and Selena left Gotham, Iron Fist and Catwoman have not been seen again.

They didn't even reply to the message once.

So Bruce rightfully had his own suspicions.

When Depp answered him like this, Bruce was already sure that Depp was Iron Fist and Selena was Catwoman.

This pair is really... It's a good match!

"So, who's the guy next to you?"

Bruce said, looking into Clark's eyes.

When Clark was stared at by Bruce, he felt a chill down his spine inexplicably.

Bruce's eyes give Clark a completely different feeling than Depp.

When Clark is watched by Depp, he will have a feeling of being seen through, but it will not make him feel a little rude and disgusted.

But when Clark is watched by Bruce, there is a feeling of being targeted by a bird of prey.

It's as if the slightest movement in me will be wiped out immediately.

It's really... It's a little uncomfortable!

However, Clark did not show obvious displeasure, but after glancing at Depp, he said: "I am a high school student from Smallville, Clark Kent. To be honest, I don't know why Big Depp brought me here, but he said there were people here that I had to get to know. ”.

"Clark Kent," Bruce said, looking at him, "I think there must be something unusual about you that Depp brought you to me." ”

Bruce is very sure that the person Depp said that Clark must know is himself.

"You're right," Clark said, "I do have a little bit of a difference from the average person. But my father told me that I needed to hide how different I was from other people, otherwise I would get into a lot of unnecessary trouble. ”

"Your father was right, in most cities, people are not very receptive to people with special abilities."

After Bruce finished speaking, he paused and continued: "But it's different here, this is Gotham, no matter how special and strange people or things, there's nothing to make a fuss about. ”

Joseph, who was in the state of a clown, chimed in: "That's right, although Gotham City is a place with criminal genes, I have to say that the Gotham people here are definitely the most rebellious and tolerant people in this country." ”

After Depp appeared, the clown obviously restrained a lot and became a little more normal in speaking.

As he said, the spirit that Gotham City represents is resistance.

Rebel against the exploitation of capital, against the huge gap between the rich and the poor, against everything and everything!

And the Joker, after the worst day of his life, has become the embodiment of Gotham City's spirit of resistance.

It can even be said that the Joker was originally the ultimate evil retribution caused by all the evils of Gotham City.

But Depp's arrival has changed so many things.

This also includes Joseph and the Joker.

Therefore, he was able to stand calmly on the Wayne Tower today, communicating with Bruce instead of fighting viciously.

Oswald also said: "Yes, in Gotham, you only have to worry about whether you can adapt to the city, and you don't have to worry about whether the city and the people in it can adapt to a special person. ”

"That sounds good." Clark said: "Although on TV, people have mixed reviews of Gotham. ”

"TV?" The clown smiled and said disdainfully: "Children, what you see on TV is what those people want you to see." ”

Seeing that these people were chatting more and more deeply with Clark, Depp decided to interrupt immediately.

After all, this is Clark who is still in his formative years, and if he is led crooked by these freaks in Gotham, it won't work!

Depp said in a deep voice: "I seem to have heard it just now, you said that Gotham has had some new troubles recently? ”

Joseph said: "Yes, the crime rate in Gotham has been on the rise lately, and those who commit crimes don't seem to be ordinary people. ”

"What did they do?" Depp asked.

Gordon picked up the suggestion file he had recorded, and took stock of them one by one: "During this time, a total of five well-known wealthy people and businessmen in Gotham City were assassinated. Among them was Salmaroni, who was still serving his sentence, and I reckon Falcone would have been assassinated if it hadn't been for Falcone's early departure. ”

"Their property and their hidden money have also been looted, and they look like a gang of ordinary robbers."

"In addition, several bank vaults in Gotham City were also attacked, and the most coincidental thing is that most of the items that were stolen from the vaults belonged to the Wayne Group, except for some... A special metal whose name even bank employees don't know. ”

"All in all, these guys look like a bunch of vicious super-bandits at the moment."

Special metals?

Depp immediately captured this important detail.

He felt that these weirdos might have snatched other things under the guise of this particular metal.

And when it comes to the special metals in the DC world, Depp can't help but glance at himself.

Could it be the Dionysian factor?

Impossible!

This thing is liquid, and it is impossible for ordinary people to see and know it, let alone deposit it in the bank.

Clark wondered, "Even the bank clerk doesn't know what the customer is storing it?" How is this possible, if someone drops the bag halfway, wouldn't it be inexplicable! ”

Bruce sneered and said, "It's Gotham here, and if something strange happens, it seems to be normal." ”

Hearing Bruce's words, Clark begins to develop a hint of antipathy towards Gotham.

He doesn't like this kind of city that doesn't make any sense or rules at all, and seems to be a mess.

And it's not in line with the faith he has now!

He glanced at Depp and seemed to say, it's time for us to go home, I don't like this place very much.

However, Depp had no intention of taking Clark home at all, after all, the purpose of his return today was not to discuss any robbers.

It's to let Clark and Bruce get to know each other in advance.

Depp wants to see some Batman vs. Superman scenes in the future.

But at the moment, it seems that Clark and Bruce don't get along very well.

And Clark didn't regard the masked man with pointed ears in front of him as a real Batman.

After all, those are characters that exist in the comics, and now Clark just thinks that these people in front of him are big fans of the Gotham Vigilante series, playing cosplay.

As for the Batman and Spider-Man comics, Clark buys them for every issue.

I have to say that the cartoons released by Depp are very popular with children who are going to school.

Clark felt that if he had any resonance with the man in front of him wearing a Batman cos costume, maybe it would be because both of them were Batman fans.

Seeing that between the two, there doesn't seem to be the feeling of being familiar at first sight in superhero comics, Depp sighed and chose to introduce it himself.

"Clark, standing in front of you, guy in Batman uniform... It's Batman. ”

Clark heard this, turned his head to look at Depp suspiciously, and frowned slightly: "Uh... Is this a Gotham tradition? When introducing each other, they are used to saying the name of the character they are cosizing? ”

Depp reluctantly hugged Clark's shoulder, stretched out his index finger to point at Bruce, and said, "No, Clark, this thing is really Batman." ”

"What?!"

For a moment, Clark's head was short-circuited.

The guy in front of him turned out to be really Batman?

He suddenly remembered that when he read the comics, it seemed that there would always be a small red logo on the cover.

And the word written on the logo seems to be Depp.

This seems to be the same way that this group of people just called Big Brother Levi!

Don't... Big Brother Levi is the boss of Depp Group!

And the comics he released are really the heroes that really exist in Gotham City?

Oh my god, I must be dreaming!

I actually met the heroes of the comics?

If Big Brother Levi hadn't lied to me, wouldn't that be ......

Clarke glanced around one by one and said to Depp, "Could it be... These people... Jokers, penguins, Robins, and Gotham vigilantes, all real? ”

Depp nodded and said, "That's right, they are those heroes and villains in the comics?" ”

When he learned that these people were real superheroes, Clark no longer felt a trace of disgust.

Instead, excitement and incredibleness followed.

"Oh my God! I think I should go home and get a pen and a couple of comics and have them sign me off! ”

"Brother Depp, you and Batman, wait for me, I'll be back soon!"

"You know how fast I am!"

After saying that, Clarke's figure immediately flashed and disappeared in place.

At the same time, Oswald clearly sensed something and asked, "Wait, were they heroes and villains just now?" Could it be that someone here here is portrayed as a villain in the comics? ”

The little scandal gave Oswald a blank look and said, "It's definitely not me!" ”

In the next second, Clark came to the clown standing at the very edge with a comic book, handed the pen to the latter, and said: "Please sign the cover, the most charismatic villain, Mr. Joker!" ”

Joker: "......"

The speechless clown glanced at Depp resentfully, and signed his name on the cover of the comic with a curse in his heart.

Villains are villains, at least the most charismatic one!

Seeing this, Oswald immediately smiled and leaned back, and said: "Hahahahahahahaha, you guy is really a villain, it's really weak enough, I really don't know who swore just now that it was definitely not ......"

Before Oswald could finish laughing, Clark held up the comic and pen at him and said, "Please sign your name next door to Mr. Joker, Gotham's roughest villain, Mr. Penguin." ”

The laughter stopped abruptly, and Oswald looked at Clark with a confused expression and a questioning voice.

"Huh?"

"I'm a villain too?"

"Or the bumpiest one?"

Is this reasonable? This obviously doesn't make sense, I'm the mayor of Gotham!

Oswald pulled the comic book from Clarke's hand, kept pointing his finger on it, and said, "Boy, are you sure what kind of villain Penguin Man I am in here, not the superhero Penguin?" ”

Clark said in his gentle and innocent voice, "Yes, sir, I confirm the villain Penguin, but you are indeed a very charismatic villain. ”

"Are you sure that the penguin isn't the mayor in there, but just a villain?"

"Sir, you did become a mayor in the comics, but you are still a villain."

Oswald suddenly felt a little out of breath, and looked up at Depp with eyes ten times more resentful than the Joker.

Depp gave Oswald a flying eye and said: "The plot needs it, the plot needs it!" ”

"That'll do!"

Reluctantly, Oswald signed Clark to the cover of the comics, and was immediately mocked mercilessly by the Joker.

"Hahaha, the most bumpy villain, worthy of you, little penguin!"

After that, Clark got Batman, Dick and Gordon to sign their names in turn.

When Bruce signs his name to the comic book, Clark is going crazy with joy!

Then Clarke returned to Depp's side and asked, "Brother Depp, why didn't Crocodile Kid and Catwoman, and Iron Fist come?" I'd love to get them to sign me too! ”

Depp thought about it and signed the name of Iron Fist directly on Clark's comics.

Then he said, "Clark, you now have the signature of Iron Fist." The crocodile kid is busy with company affairs every day, and I'll take you to him when I have time. As for Catwoman... I'm sure you've seen her many times, too. ”

Clarke looked at Depp in surprise and said, "It turns out that you are Iron Fist!" In that case, Sister Selena must be Catwoman! Oh my god, I met a whole team of superheroes in the real world! ”

On the other side, Bruce patted the Joker and Oswald who were about to fight, pointed at Clark and said:

"Do you remember how long it took for this kid to go home to get comic books and pens from here until he returned here?"

The clown thought for a moment and asked, "Where is his house?" ”

Gordon replied, "If I'm not mistaken, this boy's home is in the small town of Smoville, near the metropolis, which is hundreds of kilometers away!" ”

Bruce continued: "And he just now, it seems that it took less than ten seconds? ”

After listening to Gordon and Bruce, the others looked at Clark together.

They all had incredible expressions in their eyes. _&
