"For me, for Bruce Wayne, how can I describe it in just one word...... What is Gotham City? ”

"Home? Family? Target? ”

"But in fact, the real answer is: I can't answer that question."

Amid the melodious music, Chen Tao stood in the center of the brightly lit hall in a formal dress.

The elite of Gotham City's high society gathered to hold a charity dinner scheduled for March 29 three months ago led by Gotham super-rich Bruce Wayne, after being postponed for six days due to Bruce Wayne's health.

“…… At this moment, as most of you know, I lost my parents when I was a child......"

“…… Deep down, I knew that even though the pain was so deep, things would get better......

My point is that when we are in a challenging or daunting environment, it makes no sense to ask ourselves what our city 'is', because when we look around at the streets and buildings built by the Zhou Dynasty, it is our fear and our frustration—"

"The devil in our hearts."

"And if we stop looking at the present, and we don't look back at the past, but look at the future—"

"We ask ourselves what we can – and will – become tomorrow...... So, we're asking the right question. Because to embrace hope, to have dreams, and to meet the future is to shape the city with your own hands, not to be shaped by the city. ”

Chen Tao's gaze swept to the people in the audience. They're judges, they're councilors, they're entrepreneurs, they're the Gotham forces of justice that Bruce Wayne has accumulated over the years before he crossed over. Bruce has almost pushed the plan to this point...... And Chen Tao had to continue and stabilize their military morale.

Hell yes.

Chen Tao thought so. In order to completely revive the rotten city of Gotham, Bruce Wayne almost relied on a long period of time and financial resources to reconstruct a digestive system and a life support system for this decaying wood from scratch little by little. With these conscientious judges, parliamentarians, and entrepreneurs in front of you, even if all those corrupt officials in Gotham are dead......

Ahem, Batman wouldn't have killed people so roughly.

Alas. Chen Tao fully understands how difficult it is to build such a system, and the energy and effort involved are unimaginable. This is the Bruce Wayne who was crossed by him, and prepared a life-saving remedy for Gotham.

And can he, a traverser, really overcome all odds and continue Bruce Wayne's plan?

Such a responsibility is the most unbearable. But at the very least, he has to hold on to the plate until Superman or Wonder Woman arrives and takes over the city until he succeeds in finding a successor.

Chen Tao settled down and continued to read the manuscript written by Bruce Wayne:

"I know that all of you here may be suspicious, because our city has been gripped with violence, and countless criminals have even grown to the point where the army needs to be mobilized to suppress them. The law and order have been disrupted to the point of no sustainability, but we know that this will pass......

What we need to do is to put an end to the root causes of such riots and the breeding ground for Gotham evil......"

“…… I'm going to put money into supporting what I'm saying. Once the riots have subsided, Wayne Enterprises will boldly and quickly begin investing in Gotham's future, and we have worked with a number of local design firms to develop a redevelopment plan to redevelop Gotham's most dilapidated industrial residential area......"

…… On this basis, we are planning to expand and modernize Gotham's public transportation system, these plans are so hopeful and exciting that I can't put into words how I feel about it, and we will reveal more information in the next few days, but at this moment I ask you to go beyond the Gotham was and is present, and I just ask you to take a moment to imagine with me......"

"Gotham City's 'future'."

"Thank you, now, friends, I ask you to join me in investing in the future of Gotham, and I promise you that if we join hands, if we work together, then ......"

"A better, brighter Gotham...... It's only one step away. ”

"Thank you, thank you......"

In the melodious banquet songs, Chen Tao picked up a glass of champagne and hid himself in the eager crowd.

"Well done, Bruce, inspiring."

Chen Tao didn't look back.

"Tim, what's going on with Solomon Grandi?"

Robin, dressed in a formal suit, held a glass of juice, and he shrugged:

"It's done. Our gray-white friend is now living well in the Slaughter Swamp, the locator is in place, and his daily food is provided with us, ready to drop a sufficient amount of powerful anesthetic and throw it on any battlefield where it is needed. So now he's our humanoid bomb. ”

He continued, "Poison Ivy and the Suicide Squad are housed together, and as you might expect, Ivy can't resist those cherished plant rescue opportunities, plus she's always tired of being with Harley—"

"According to Ivy, the botanical master Jason Wood is now basically battered, and her original sentence is, 'Jason may be powerful, but he is by no means a swamp monster, and he will not be able to recover to his previous level for at least half a century.'" In other words, the Super Dryad can only be a real piece of wood now. ”

"The rest of the Suicide Squad are keeping Gotham safe - I have to admit they have two brushes."

Tim wrinkled the child's nose and said, "At least they're more than enough to deal with those third-rate villains, especially the Death Shooter." Although Poison Ivy's abilities are easy to target, as long as you don't encounter particularly powerful characters, there will be no major problems. But if it's a clown, a two-faced man, a riddler, these ......"

"I didn't expect them to deal with these freaks." Chen Tao replied to him: "Continue to report." ”

"Bane is nowhere to be found, and we can't locate him just yet. He deliberately avoided our bat camera, and the house was not an obstacle for him at all. ”

"As expected." Chen Tao said: "Go on. ”

"The strength of the National Guard has basically been broken up, and the fighting situation is unbearable." Robin paused: "The Joker kidnapped Mayor Caro and threw a super-double Joker gas bomb into the center of the position at the last minute. ”

"About one-third of the soldiers died on the spot either under Bane's attack or under the clown's venom, and they didn't even have an ambulance."

Robin said: "And the other survivors are not much better, Mayor Carlo, well, it was Mayor Carlo, who was controlled by the clown, who gave a mad order, which caused even the fireheads in the army to go to war. ”

"With the bomb exploding, the wounded almost filled the hospital in Gotham, and the state government refused to provide support to the city anymore......"

Tim paused.

"In other words, Gotham has been abandoned."

"And there's one more thing."

Tim said, "Are you really going to ignore the challenge the Joker has given you?" ”
