Chapter 56: News Arrives
"It was a big weapon for war, a microwave generator.
It can emit microwaves to evaporate enemy water sources by heating at high temperatures in the air. ”
Lucius was sent to the basement of the mansion for several years, during which William Earl ignored it until a few days ago when someone suddenly sent in to obtain detailed information about the microwave generator.
"Water source?"
"It doesn't sound like a big deal to lose it.
But the purpose of the people who robbed it must not be simple, because dozens of people have died just to get it. ”
All the crew members of the cargo ship that carried the microwave generators were killed.
"Any clues?" Bruce frowned.
"The bodies were all missing, suspected to have been thrown into the sea.
At the scene, this was spotted. ”
Lucius pulls out a picture of a bloody ninja dart stuck in the bulkhead of a cargo ship.
Seeing the format of the darts, Bruce's pupils shrank.
"You know it?"
"I'm going to have someone look into it."
Without a positive answer, Bruce said with a complicated expression.
Of course, he knew that most of his skills were learned in that place, where he received cruel and inhuman ancient training, and strengthened his will - the Shadow Warrior Alliance.
But when the Alliance orders him to kill a criminal to prove his determination to serve justice and let him lead the Shadow Warriors in the destruction of Gotham, he causes chaos and destroys the base with gunpowder.
"Now, it seems, it's not over yet."
Looking at the photo, he seemed to smell the earthy smell of the water vapor before the storm, and his eyes were sharp.
……
Gotham city centre, Burnley district, Manchester restaurant.
It's one of the best restaurants in the city, and it's a place where people come and go, rich or rich.
The brightly lit, bright and elegant décor is accompanied by the melodious sound of the violin.
In the dining room, David and Selena sat facing each other, looking at the bustling second floor, reflecting the figures and seeing the windows upstairs from downstairs.
"That's where you chose to trade your message?"
"The people you asked me to investigate, if you get their attention, it won't matter where you trade, they'll tear you to pieces like bloodhounds that smell blood."
Selina spread her hands.
"If they're lucky, they don't notice, even if it's done on the street."
Nervous? There was no nervousness on David's face, only suspicion.
Suspecting that she wanted to vent her frustration about being threatened before, she took the opportunity to kill herself.
Just looked at the menu, and a meal from here is enough to make an ordinary family dry for a year.
"Speaking of which, I've wanted to come here for a meal for a long time, but I've never had the chance."
Serena curiously admired the surrounding décor.
The East Side, the ghetto of Gotham, is the famous Crime Alley where Bruce Wayne lost his parents.
Although Catwoman has a lot of expensive items in her collection, she has always believed that thieves are never a good thing if they are too high-profile.
Buzz!
The high-pitched roar of a sports car.
An exaggerated streamlined silver-gray sports car parked downstairs, attracting the eyes of diners.
A boy in a suit got out of the car.
The waiter walked up, his eyes almost nailed to the world's limited edition luxury sports car, and he couldn't pull it out.
"This car is so cool."
Hearing the waiter's sigh of inflection, Bruce smiled cynically.
"It's nothing, I've got a cooler one."
There was a two-seater sports car, but the other seat sat two beautiful models, he buttoned up the suit, and the gentleman helped the two models out of the car.
All the way upstairs.
"Mr. Wayne."
Everyone who sees others is greeting him warmly and even flatteringly.
"Wayne's Son Returns to Gotham, Turn on the TV Today and Hardly See Other News."
Looking at Bruce Wayne, who came up from the stairs and hugged everyone's attention, Selina sighed in a complicated tone.
"It's really beautiful, some people are born with everything."
David reminisces about Catwoman's miserable childhood.
Catwoman's Mariah Kyle is a cold mother, married to her husband, she prefers to spend time with cats than her daughter, and one day she commits suicide, Serena's father is an alcoholic all day long, because Selina looks like a mother, and when he sees her, he thinks of her mother, is very cruel to her, and eventually dies of alcoholism.
After that, the homeless Serena wandered the streets for a time, and was soon sent to an orphanage.
David wanted to say that Bruce Wayne wasn't much better than you, but it didn't feel like comfort.
Not far from the restaurant on the second floor, invited by William Earle, several directors of the Wayne Group were having a dinner.
"Bruce, you're here?"
Seeing Bruce Wayne who came with two female models in his arms on this occasion, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and contempt flashed in his eyes.
He also treated this guy's return with great gratitude, thinking that it would take a lot of effort to convince the directors again.
"Mary, here!"
At the corner of the stairs, Selina beckoned to a girl dressed up hot and walking up to the second floor.
Pushing down her sunglasses and glancing at the tall David, Mary smiled seductively and sat down in her seat.
"What you want."
A vellum-wrapped envelope was placed on the table and pushed to Selina.
David frowned, this person's pupils were slightly dilated, and he was not very sober, as if he was drunk and slightly drunk, is the news from this kind of person reliable?
"Would you like to have a bite to eat here?"
Catwoman provides a channel that is difficult for ordinary people to access, and Davy pays for it, and after paying, Selina asks the woman to sit down and eat.
"No, I don't like the atmosphere, it makes me uncomfortable."
After finishing speaking, she got up, and the woman gave a flying kiss to the flat-faced David, and then swayed her body and left without any nostalgia.
"Mary is one of the people in Gotham who specializes in messaging channels.
Her sources are not fanciful, waitresses in restaurants, pickpockets on the streets, homeless people and orphans, dancers in nightclubs, addicts everywhere in the alleys, and blackened police officers in police stations......"
Seeing David's skepticism about the reliability of the source, Selina explained as she handed him the envelope.
"But her news is generally true.
Even mostly first-handed. ”
The best eyeliner is the one that people are accustomed to appearing in their eyes, but they are inconspicuous.
"Betraying the news of the scary gang boss you call a mob boss.
She doesn't seem to be scared at all? ”
David said.
"That's what Gotham is all about.
The whistling and chasing police cars, the broken glass, the piercing screams, the filthy lewd laughter in the alleys, there are so many things to fear and worry about in Gotham, if you have to be scared all the time, you don't have to do anything all day. ”
She replied with a look of accustomation.
"It seems that the delicacies I ordered can only be tasted by me."
The two sat in the corner of the window on the second floor, Catwoman alone enjoying the feast elegantly, and he quietly flipped through the news in his hand.
I didn't expect to see Bruce Wayne here again, but he wasn't interested in going up and saying hello.
Batman is not a good person to deal with.
"Even if he can provide a decent amount of emotional points."
These days, David can catch a glimpse of emotional points from Batman from time to time.
