Whether it's Superman and Wonder Woman, or Flash and Cyborg, they're all superheroes who, like Batman, are now household names.

The news media in the Metropolitan and Canterlot report on them every once in a while.

However, the most eye-catching is the report related to Superman.

Anyone who has seen Superman's report knows that Superman is an alien from Krypton.

Although people like Superman and Wonder Woman are already household names of superheroes, Roy found that supervillains such as General Zod, Doom Day, and Steppenwolf have not yet appeared.

The more famous supervillains now include Lex Luthor, Leopard Girl, Reverse Lightning, Gorilla Grain, Captain Cold and others.

These supervillains are famous because they have all been caught.

Selina is very efficient.

It didn't take long for her to arrange a private jet to the Met.

Speaking of which, we have to talk about the now extinct Falcone family.

The Kyle family, which Selina is now in charge, has taken over all the property and power of the Falcone family.

Legally, this is not possible.

But this is Gotham.

With a few simple means, the Kyle family easily took over everything from the Falcone family.

The Kyle Manor, where Roy and Selina are now, is the same as the previous Manor of Carmene.

The private jet arranged by Selina was also used to be Carmaine's private jet.

After arranging a private jet to the Met, Selina wasted no time and directly took Roy on the plane and set off on her way to the Met.

Metropolitan University.

Teaching building of the Department of Fine Arts.

Maggie, who has only been enrolled for a few weeks, is trying to complete the homework assigned by her tutor.

Because of the unconventional admission methods, she had a lot more difficulty studying than other students.

It's not just that she has a poor foundation, but that she doesn't have any foundation at all.

However, she still doesn't plan to give up.

As she struggled to finish the homework in front of her, her phone vibrate.

A look of surprise appeared on her face when she saw the notes displayed on the screen.

Without any hesitation, she decisively pressed the answer button.

The person who called Maggie was none other than Selena, who had just arrived at the Met.

As soon as she got off the plane, Selina started dialing Maggie's number.

After talking excitedly to Serena for a few minutes, Maggie put away the homework in front of her, stuffed the homework and textbooks into her bag, and left the classroom without looking back.

The Metropolis is not far from Gotham.

To be precise, it is across the sea.

In the comics, Metropolis and Gotham are two cities adjacent to each other on land.

And here, the geographical location of Metropolis and Gotham is across the sea in the cinematic universe.

Even if it's not by plane, but by ferry, it won't take much time to get from Gotham to the Met.

A French restaurant near the Metropolitan University.

Roy and Selina sat together, and Maggie, who was much quieter in her dress, sat across from them.

Although Maggie had only been away from Gotham for a few weeks, Selina and Maggie had endless words to talk about as if they hadn't seen each other in years.

Roy didn't join Selina and Maggie's best friend exchange, but carefully tasted the food in front of him.

Although he doesn't need to eat to get energy, he still keeps up the habit of eating three meals a day.

Not for anything else, but because it makes him feel like he's still human.

In the past, when he was in Krako, he had been uninterested in anything and gradually lost his humanity.

Although he later solved the problem, in order to avoid continuing to have that situation, he would try to make his life like a normal person.

On top of that, tasting food can also be a good treat.

Little by little, time passed.

After lunch at this expensive French restaurant, Selina and Maggie, who hadn't seen each other for a while, made a tacit proposal to go shopping together.

Although Roy was not very interested in such a thing as shopping, he did not refuse.

Idle is idle anyway.

After boarding a Mercedes Benz provided by the Kyle family's metropolitan branch, the Roy trio set out to head to the nearby business district.

The Falcone family is an underground family active in Gotham.

But in the process of developing the family's power, Carmen did not forget to establish a branch in the metropolis, which is not far from Gotham.

After Serena took over the Falcone family, the Falcone family's metropolitan branch naturally became the Kyle family's metropolitan branch.

Compared to Gotham, the traffic situation in the metropolis is slightly worse, and it is about the same as New York.

But fortunately, it was not the peak season, and it didn't take long for Roy and the three of them to arrive in the nearest business district.

After parking in the parking lot, Serena and Maggie went out walking arm in arm.

As for Roy, he followed them like a bodyguard.

Before they knew it, Serena and Maggie were in a luxury store.

In the past, they would definitely not come to luxury stores to shop.

But now it's different, Maggie has a trust fund, and Selina has a family that she is in charge of.

What they couldn't afford to consume before is not a problem at all for them now.

More than half an hour later, Selina and Maggie left the luxury store satisfied.

While they were discussing which store to shop next, a bored Roy looked at the pedestrians around him.

Gotham's economic level is not much worse than that of the Metropolis, though.

But compared to the citizens of Gotham, the ordinary citizens of the metropolis are more leisurely and calm.

On the one hand, this is because the security of the Metropolis is much better than that of Gotham.

On the other hand, it is because the Metropolis has the existence of superheroes such as Superman, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg.

Compared to Batman, people like Superman and Wonder Woman can bring a stronger sense of security.

Roy had just intended to casually glance at the pedestrians in the mall.

However, it was okay not to look at it, and when he looked at it, he noticed that something was wrong.

On the face of it, there are no problems with the high-end mall they are in now.

But in the lobby on the first floor of the mall, Roy saw several unusual customers.

"What's wrong?"

After seeing Roy's gaze fall on the lobby on the first floor, Selina asked softly.

"Those people aren't here to shop."

"Or rather, they came for zero dollars."

Roy said slowly.

Zero-dollar purchase?

Although Roy said it tactfully, Selina and Maggie reacted immediately.

Having grown up in Gotham since childhood, they are no strangers to zero-dollar purchases.

Although they have not done such a thing as zero-dollar purchases, they have witnessed a lot of zero-dollar purchases.

Following Roy's gaze, Selina also saw the few "customers" who were out of place in the mall.

"Do you want to call the police?"

Selina said quickly.

"No, you don't."

"If nothing else, there should be superheroes falling from the sky to stop them."

Roy replied.
