Chapter 16: The Plant Crisis

The communication was dialed by a ventriloquist, and he brought bad news to Chen Tao:

The death shooter was about to break up and go back to Gao Laozhuang - Chen Tao only felt tired.

Once again, he deeply realized that reality is not an online game, and there is no such outrageous setting as [recruiting soldiers to see loyalty].

Each of these guys he recruited is more than the other, and one is more wonderful than the other.

Gordon stood next to him for a while, and noticed that Batman hadn't left him to answer the phone as before, so he consciously walked to the side and cowered.

Chen Tao asked the ventriloquist to give the phone to the death shooter, then settled down, thought for a moment, and cut the voice to the death shooter's own voice:

"OK, OK, even if you don't want money, you have to save your life and reunite with your daughter, I respect your choice and bless your life, but I still have something to say."

"Are you so satisfied?"

The death shooter on the other end of the phone had a strange face, and the other party used his own voice to persuade him, which was inexplicably a little terrifying.

"Listen, Lawton, I've looked into you. Your daughter's adoptive parents are just an ordinary family, and they can't afford to give your daughter a good education. ”

"Your daughter is still in elementary school, and she's going to be in the community, in the worst public junior high school, surrounded by thugs with dyed hair, smoking, tattoos, fighting, fighting. She'll go to the most rubbish high school next - if your daughter doesn't study badly. And then what? ”

"Got a big belly by some red-necked scumbag thug one day? And then become a single mommy, huh? Working as a salesperson in a supermarket, out of shape and with loose skin, is this the life you plan for your daughter? ”

"Shut up! Bastard! ”

The anger of the Death Shooter was easily mobilized, he should not have been such a grumpy and irritable idiot, but no matter who it was, when it came to his family, he could not always keep calm.

"Ah-yes - his dad is the famous death shooter, a murderer wanted in more than 10 countries. The only difference between Zoe and the other ghetto girls is that his awesome dad shoots through the necks of all the bad guys who come near her, and some of the money he has saved over the years as mercenaries. But what's the use of that? ”

"No matter how much money you have, the real upper echelons of those aristocratic schools will not open the door to Zoyi, not to mention that if you want to launder your black money, they will directly evaporate 1/2."

"Your money can be laundered, but what about your identity? Where do you want to take Zoe to live? Sahara Desert or Grand Canyon of East Africa? ”

"You don't want your daughter, dear mercenary, to be denied a good education, do you?"

"Enough, no more!"

There was a strange frustration in the voice of the death shooter, as if biting his tongue was preventing the sound of his heart from popping out of his mouth.

"I can get you a letter of introduction to Gotham's top school, from Bruce Wayne or Jim Gordon."

"I can take the $200 million I gave you through financial operations, and all of it will be turned into Zoe's legal income."

"I can plan a perfect life for Zoe."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Silent.

The death shooter on the other side of the phone sighed. He didn't expect that he would change his course and raise his hand in surrender within minutes of making a decision.

He didn't ask the other party if he could help him clear his name, he knew that the other party would not do it for him even if he could.

What the other side needs is a combat force that can fight and rush, not a soldier who always thinks about washing his hands.

"Okay, I got it. I'll help you ......."

"What do you call me?"

"Boss."

The matter was settled.

Provide the facts, lay out the chips, and close the deal.

To be honest, Chen Tao was too lazy to think in the direction of "whether the other party deliberately sat on the ground and raised the price", because it was meaningless.

When Bane is settled, his cooperation with these mercenaries will be terminated immediately, the money and goods will be cleared, the promise will be fulfilled, and then run towards their own beautiful lives, old and dead.

At least for now, he can completely handle the death shooter, and that's enough.

What's more, now that the National Guard is dispatched, can Bane still destroy an entire army by himself?

Optimistically, though maybe Batman won't need it at all.

Chen Tao closed the communication and looked at Gordon, ready to discuss with him what to do with Bane, he still had - wait, the other party seemed to be answering the phone.

Jim Gordon turned his head, and he wiped his forehead, the sweat from the folds on his gray brown hair.

The expression on his face was extremely serious.

"Wait for me in a moment, Batman."

He said.

He hurriedly left the rooftop from the staircase, and a few minutes later, Director Gordon, who came back again, took a file bag and handed one of the documents to Chen Tao:

"You watch first, I'll tell me. Three days ago, the Star Lab was attacked and kidnapped by a large living person, Harold Goldbloom, a professor of chemistry, a leading figure in the chemical research department of GothCorp, an expert in biochemical warfare weapons, and a top intelligence in the fields of biology, botany, and toxicology......"

He took out a photo to show Chen Tao, on it was a gray-haired bald man, who was very smart at first glance.

Chen Tao chuckled in his heart when he saw it.

"It was supposed to be a serious matter, but at the time, the fireflies had just set a fire to Elmer's Docks."

Chen Tao followed and replied to him: "And the pervert of the firefly climaxed while watching the dock turn into a torch, and then ......"

Chen Tao was stunned for a moment, and he suddenly realized that in the original history, Batman came to the scene for the first time, beat the fireflies to the ground, and fled in embarrassment.

But at that time, he had just crossed over, and was still using the toilet paper in the Batcave to try to activate the [Alfred Protocol], so-

"There was a fierce clash between the fireflies and the boys who had rushed to hear the news."

(Gordon's boys are referring to his police)

"In addition to fireflies, there are almond brains, ogres, two-faced ......"

Gordon said a long list of names like the names of the dishes, and then said, "Bane has released too many people from the Arkham Asylum, so the matter of Poison Ivy has been delayed. ”

"But just 10 minutes ago, I just received a report that the people in the Identification Department had repaired the destroyed surveillance with technical means, and we suddenly discovered that Poison Ivy was not a one-man rob of the Star Labβ€”"

Chen Tao took the photo handed by Gordon, and standing next to Ivy the Poison Ivy was a scary-looking tree man.

"Then, we found out that Professor Goldbloom had just developed a bioweapon with a very large range for GothCorp, if Poison Ivy and this inhuman monster were going to replicate it and use it in the city......"

Chen Tao carefully looked at the photo for a while.

"I know him. This guy is a master plant, Jason Wood," he said in the affirmative: he recreated the accident that created the swamp monster Alec Holland, turning himself into a walking plant and becoming a low-level spokesperson for the magical power [Green of Everything]. ”

"The green of everything, what the hell is that?"

"An elemental essence that represents plants, the red of all beings that represents flesh and blood, and the black of decay that represents corruption and death, are called the three basic forces."

"Okay, wait." Gordon said, "You just said magic, right? ”

"I don't know why the content of our discussion suddenly jumped from cop movies to Super Magic Smash Bros."
