Chapter 45: Trading

Sending the scarecrow away, the penguin man let out a sigh of relief and collapsed in his seat again. The clowns and scarecrows that came in turn tonight made him feel nervous.

Back in the office, he picked up his milk again, which had gone from hot to cold, and was only 1/4 left.

The penguins decided that it was time to leave work after they had drunk it.

He picked up the cup.

He brought his mouth closer to the rim of the cup.

If there is no accident, then there will be an accident.

But nothing happened.

The penguin man let out a sigh and smiled.

That's right, the clown who broke in before, the scarecrow who broke in just now, this time, no one will break in again, right?

He took a sip of the milk into his mouth, and then the next second.

A little brother stumbled into his office, and with a look of horror, he stumbled again on the shiny carpet.

"Oh no, boss! It's Bain! Bane is here! ”

Milk squirted out of his hooked nose again.

After 10 minutes.

Penguins with a stinky face and Bane walk on the rooftop of the Iceberg Restaurant, surrounded by helicopter gunships protecting their employers.

"Follow me, penguin."

Seeing that the penguin man didn't seem to mean to speak, Bane spoke first. His voice felt like a hole in his throat, and with these abnormal high notes, the penguins shivered.

Strangely, the sound sounded like a pathological reaction that would only occur after inhaling the laughing gas of the clown's qualities.

Penguin Man silently thought that after so many years in Gotham, he had almost made it a daily routine to encounter a neurotic plague tormented by the clown virus on the road, so he was naturally very familiar with it.

"I know the scarecrow has been to you, right?"

The penguin man wanted to tell a lie, but soon felt a tingling sensation in his back coming through Bane's gaze. The other party rubbed his arms, almost naked, "If you don't say anything, I'll beat you." It was written on the face.

He wasn't sure how Bane knew about the Scarecrow who had only been here a few minutes ago, and I, the Penguin Man, such an honest man, couldn't possibly hide anything from these circumstances.

Penguin Man says:

"That's right, here he is, as always. Crane lamented over and over again that the world was as if the world were under his rule. It's his old job to create fear, but he's also the one who is most often scared. ”

"You have a lot of criticism for him, but you still move between the two sides, that's your nature." Bane replied, his burly figure, a pair of eyes shining with reason: "Egoism is the purest motive, I believe in him, rely on him, every city is dominated by egoism." ”

"Hey, listen. I know your family's history in this city, Copperpat, and I understand how deep your affection is for his brick walls, his mortar, his steel, and you're not like those swinging and speculative Gotham freaks who always want to win her over without sacrifice and then go home in the shadow of Batman. ”

"Like you, I know how hard it takes, and I know what it feels like to be toyed with and in the palm of my hand, and I know the feeling of despair on my back," Bane said. ”

"The city has failed the men and women who built it, and they have worked hard and ended up in the streets, and that's the law of the city, and rightly so," he said.

This is the inevitable price of progress, and if the old buildings are not demolished and the new ones are not built, death is only a part of the laws of nature. Believe me, I've just experienced the topic of death. ”

Penguins whispered:

", didn't you just die once before?"

His gaze lingered on the green shoots that sprouted from the other half of Bane's body, which should have been dead on a hundred-year-old tree, not on Bane's biceps.

"I'm coming to you almost unsuspectingly, Bane, because I know we need each other for now." Penguins are in no mood to waste their time on nostalgia.

He said.

"You're used to seeing the wind steer, penguin, and I'll be determined to do it."

Bane placed a pair of large hands on the penguin's shoulders, and he had no doubt that the other party would be able to break his neck in the next second, if the other party wanted to.

"You're being suspected by me and the Arkham at the same time."

"yes, uh, it's a gift, and I "don't think there's a shame in doing whatever it takes-"

But the penguin saw that Bane no longer cared for him, and he stood on the edge of the rooftop, silently observing the cool city in the evening breeze.

"It's chaotic and orderly, it's organized and anarchic, and it's the real culprit that has tormented Gotham City for decades. It was long before you and me, long before Batman. ”

"So many years. Gotham has been rotting and stinking in the mud, and Arkham Asylum is the largest gathering place for the virus in the city.

"And we, it's time to exhibit this spiritual cancer that has drained the entire city."

"I'm going to give Gotham City what it really needs – a firm direction."

"And you, Copperpat. I need you to provide me with information about the Black Gate Prison, and to provide me with information about them when they turn to you for refuge in Arkham, and even join my side. ”

"Intelligence and opportunities are your job, and the knife in your smile will be your ruthless wrist!"

The penguin man looked at the burly freak without fear, "But I'd rather sit on the sidelines, Bane." Do you want to do something about Black Gate Prison? There's something I'm interested in, something you can offer with just a few hands when you're in a high position. ”

The penguin man pinched the brim of his hat: "His name is Ignatius Ogilvi."

He was my right-hand man, the emperor penguin, the one who wanted to replace me. ”

"I have a lot to give him back, and he owes me a life, his squandering life. Bring him to me. ”

Bane agreed.

……

……

……

"Bruce, are you really up to the decision?" Lucius Fox is the president and technical director of the Wayne Group, he is Batman's royal scientist, one of the most trusted people, and one of the few people who knows Batman's true identity.

"A fully sealed tempered glass jar, as long as it is closed, it can never be opened again, and the inside is completely sealed, and multiple layers are sealed, and not even a little gas will flow out."

Lucius repeatedly confirmed his request to Chen Tao: "It is equipped with a high-tech device that can beat a living person into a quark-level, enough to kill a person in an instant, and eliminate all possibilities of resurrection?" ”

Scientists can't help but complain inwardly. Who can be resurrected after being beaten to the quark level particles?

And what do you think quarks are, the ice cream you bought downstairs? Or what new browser?

So he could only scratch his head with a headache: "The quark level is impossible, but there is no problem in killing the person in the glass coffin directly, the only problem is." ”

"Bruce, are you really ready to murder someone?"
