Chapter 251: The Besieged Barnes

The immortal body, Solomon Grandi, is very powerful!

Even more powerful than Konstantin's assistant Chas!

After all, Chas's immortal body only has forty chances, and Solomon Grandi's immortal body has no limit to the number of times!

Those who are completely unreasonable can be resurrected infinitely!

Or rather, no one can kill a dead person again!

Of course, that's just Solomon Grandi in the future time period in the original plot.

The current Grandi is not Solomon Grandi, but just a slightly present assistant to Colbert.

And because of Levi's involvement, Grandi's fate has also changed a little, which is a world of difference from the original plot!

In the original plot, Grandi should have lost a hand at this point in time due to his walking in the underworld and Copote's desire to annex rival gangs.

However, because of Levi's intervention, Cobot successfully annexed other large gangsters in the Gotham City Underworld, becoming the well-deserved overlord of the Gotham Underworld.

There is no need for Grandi to use the bitter meat trick to blend in with other hostile gangs, not only was Grandi's hand not cut off at this time, but he also sat firmly in the second-in-command position in the Gotham underworld!

Not to mention the impact of fate on Grandi in the original plot later.

Therefore, if you want Grandi to become Solomon Grandi like in the original plot, and then fuse the hero template, Levi also needs to do something to interfere with Grundy's fate.

And the appearance of Barnes happened to give Levi a usable pawn in his hands.

It's not even a pawn.

Because even without Levi's arrangement, Barnes, who is a dark hero but still has justice in his heart, will not only target the two brothers Jerome and Jerome after gaining power.

As the overlord of Gotham's underworld, and the biggest gang in Gotham, Colbot and his gang will definitely be targeted by Barnes!

The first to bear the brunt is naturally Colbert, who is the boss, and Grandi, who is the second-in-command, is naturally not immune.

All it takes is Levi to do a little bit behind the scenes at the right time to achieve his goal.

Now he just needs to focus on Barnes and Grandi.

What happened next in Gotham City was basically around these two people!

After Barnes gets back to life and leaves Arkham Asylum.

As Barnes expected, because he appeared in front of the media and the public in that uncontrolled state.

Therefore, at this time, Gordon and related media are looking for him.

Gordon was worried about what would go wrong with him, or what might be in danger.

As for the media reporters, it was because of their keen sense of news that they sensed the news from Barnes!

And it's big news!

As for the other forces in Gotham City and the underworld, since the general public can understand the information, they will naturally be able to understand it as well.

For the former chief of the Gotham Police Department, everyone in the Gotham underground world naturally knows about it.

They were also curious about what had happened to the former police chief that could make him so abnormal!

So the whole Gotham City looks calm on the surface, but in fact, the dark tide is turbulent!

Whether it's the Gotham Police Department, media reporters, or people from the underworld, everyone is moving, and almost all of Gotham is looking for Barnes!

Of course, Barnes now has far more power than ordinary people, but all the abilities he has gained are related to melee ability.

There aren't many bonuses to abilities like reconnaissance or vision, at most they have an inexplicable sixth sense brought about by Tedamir's powerful power.

So, not long after Barnes left the range of Arkham Asylum, Barnes's traces were spotted.

So, this message

Soon, it spread ten, ten to hundred, and it spread in the underground world of Gotham, and even in the whole of Gotham.

Barnes's original plan was to find a place to hide his whereabouts after leaving Arkham Asylum, and then secretly prepare to deal with the two brothers, Jerome and Jeromer, as well as other crimes in Gotham City!

As a result, he soon found that his plans had fallen apart!

After all, there were so many people watching him in the dark, and there was a steady stream of others rushing to his neighborhood from other places.

Even Barnes's perception was sluggish, and he could sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

But Barnes doesn't plan to stop there, after all, he doesn't really fit to step on the stage again.

He has been transformed into a dark hero......

But as the Gotham reporters rushed to the scene, Barnes had to stop.

His plan was completely ruined!

Because these reporters are not the same as those in the underworld, who may be because of Barnes's status as the former police chief, or out of prudence.

None of them stepped forward to face Barnes, but quietly observed.

But these journalists have no worries.

Not to mention in the beautiful country, the identity of media reporters is itself equivalent to a guarantee card, even if they know that Barnes is very dangerous now, if there is a worthy news, they will go forward and try to dig up some news from Barnes.

A swarm of reporters blocked Barnes's path and then surrounded Barnes with a variety of guns and cannons.

This forced Barnes to stop.

Barnes could indeed rely on brute force to push these journalists out of the way, or break out of the encirclement.

Now he's loaded with the hero template of the Barbarian King Tydamir, and his strength has multiplied many times more than he didn't know before!

But he didn't dare to do it.

After all, under the guns and guns of these media reporters, his identity is not only Barnes, but also the former chief of the Gotham Police Department!

Once he caused some accidental injuries in the pushing, these media reporters were guiding public opinion a little.

Even if he can run then, the Gotham Police Department won't be able to run!

I'm afraid that the Gotham Police Department will be condemned by the population and drowned with spitting stars!

Although Barnes has no way to return to the Gotham Police Department, he still considers the Gotham Police Department his home......

In desperation, Barnes could only stop and let these media reporters surround him!

"Chief Barnes, do you have any other inside story about your resignation from the Gotham Police Department?"

"Chief Barnes, may I ask why you suddenly broke into the scene of the arrest when you were arresting criminals at the Gotham Police Station earlier?"

"Director Barnes, are you feeling physically or mentally?"

「……」

A group of media reporters surrounded Barnes in the middle, and the microphone in their hands was eager to be stuffed directly into Barnes's mouth.

Hearing that these media reporters still called themselves Director Barnes, a hint of helplessness flashed on Barnes's face.

That's the last thing he wants!

Invisibly, he was firmly bound to the Gotham Police Department.

And he, now, has fallen into darkness......

"Everybody...... Barnes waved to the reporters in attendance, motioning for them to be quiet, "First of all, I want to state that I have voluntarily resigned from the Gotham Police Department and will no longer serve as the Chief of Police."

"So please stop calling me Director Barnes and just call me Barnes."

"As for the questions you just asked......

When Barnes said this, the underworld, which had been secretly observing the situation on the periphery,

Eyeliner" also pricked up their ears at this time, trying to hear Barnes's answer clearly.

Not to mention the officers of the Gotham Police Department, they don't know the reason for Director Barnes's departure, even in the well-informed underground world, the reason why Barnes voluntarily resigned as police chief is still a mystery!

"First of all, first of all, I voluntarily resigned from the post of police commissioner, as for the reason, it is also very simple, I just feel that during my tenure as police commissioner, the pressure was a bit too much, which caused me to be physically and mentally overburdened, so I wanted to take a break for a while after the law and order environment in Gotham City improved a little."

Hearing Barnes say this, a quick response from a media reporter immediately asked a question!

"Mr. Barnes! Listen to what you say, you're going to go back to the Gotham Police Department and resume your role as Chief, right?"

Barnes glanced at the reporter who asked the question with some helplessness, and then sighed.

"Fellow journalists, I am no longer the chief of the Gotham Police Department, and I may find another job in the future, but I will definitely not return to the Gotham Police Department as the chief of the police station."

"Fellow journalists, I have other things that I don't know how to answer all of you's questions, so I'll just answer what I just said. The question from the two journalists."

"The reason why I suddenly broke into the scene of the arrest is because although I have left the Gotham Police Department, I am still a righteous Gotham citizen! You can interpret my act of breaking into the scene of the arrest as a act of righteousness."

"As for my physical and mental state mentioned by the journalist friend at the end, after this period of cultivation, my physical and mental state is fine, so don't worry."

With that, Barnes lowered his head and raised his arms, splitting the crowd from the middle like a swim.

Of course, he was also extremely careful to control the force he used to prevent accidentally injuring the reporters present.

As for these media reporters.

They weren't satisfied with Barnes's reply, and it didn't live up to the newsiness they expected.

However, the man-wall tactics they were used to were not working well in front of Barnes right now.

When Barnes pushed them away, even if they had three or four people wrestling with Barnes at the same time, they couldn't resist the power on Barnes' arm.

It's like a horizontal hydraulic press.

It's slow, but the power can't be resisted!

The reporters who formed the human wall split in half like an ice that had been broken by a high-powered icebreaker, making way for Barnes.

Barnes walked briskly out of the crowd with his head down, then turned left and right in the alleys of Gotham City, and finally disappeared from the sight of the others!

It's not that Barnes is more familiar with the terrain than the others, or how fast he runs.

But everyone present, whether it was reporters or people from the underworld, knew exactly what Barnes meant, and Barnes didn't want to be the focus of the news media again.

And just now Barnes has already given the answer they want to some extent.

Barnes voluntarily left the Gotham Police Department, and it seems that there really is something wrong with Barnes.

——

As for how these people deduced it?

It's very simple.

Barnes's previous state had already been seen by them, and it had already been recorded by the cameras of media reporters.

The eyes were red, and the muscles of the whole body were swelling, like an angry bull seeing a red cloth, and it was obvious that it was definitely not normal!

And yet now Barnes doesn't admit it at all!

The more he refuses to admit it, the more it proves that there is something wrong with it!

It's just that there is no evidence of a real hammer yet, and it can't directly give a conclusion!

But for those in the underworld, there is such a speculation

Enough is enough!

The underworld, when must we have the evidence?

And for those journalists.

Although if there is evidence, they can publish more explosive and eye-catching news.

However, the lack of evidence now does not mean that they are unable to produce hot news.

Because of the status of the former chief of the Gotham Police Department in Barnes and his relationship with the Gotham Police Department, media reporters cannot spread rumors.

But the headline of the news can be used with interrogative sentences!

The effect is no weaker than the evidence with a real hammer!

And when the Gotham Police Department got the news, and then a group of police officers arrived at the scene under the leadership of the current chief, Director Gordon.

The reporters of the news media and those people in the underground world who were present had already dispersed in a hurry and left here!

The corners of Gordon's mouth twitched after he heard what had just happened.

His whole body was numb!

He's not stupid, and he can also see that something must have happened to Barnes that he doesn't know!

But now Barnes doesn't seem to have any plans to continue to contact the Gotham Police Department, or ask the Gotham Police Department for help!

And......

Hell knows what the hell the news the reporters will make up when they return to the newspaper!

Still, even if Gordon had guessed it, there was nothing he could do.

Although the position of Gotham Police Chief has a lot of power, it is difficult to influence those news media and newspapers that have big capital behind it!

Sure enough.

After the reporters of the news media returned to the newspaper office.

All sorts of outrageous rhetorical question titles appeared on the editor-in-chief's desk.
