Late at night, outside of Gotham, under Wayne Manor.

Bat Cave.

Dick came back from patrolling on a batmobile, and there were many more tears in his suit, so you can imagine what kind of fierce battles he had experienced before.

Getting off the motorcycle, Dick saw Bruce watching intently in front of the bat computer.

"It's time for a shift change, Bruce, are you still guarding that virtual account with Kidd the Rogue? I don't think he's stupid enough to use that money at will. ”

Dick took off his blindfold and walked in the direction of Bruce.

“……”

Bruce turned his back to him, silent.

"Well, I know you're not going to do that."

Dick waved his hand, not surprised by Bruce's reaction.

He knew that Bruce couldn't just stare at the virtual account full of uncertainty all day long, and he wasn't idle to that point, he was just joking.

There are too many people and things that Batman needs to focus on in Gotham, and if Kidd himself is barely qualified for Bruce to monitor himself for a few days, a virtual account is obviously not qualified.

Bruce has set up an early warning program to monitor Kidd's virtual account at all times, and once funds are withdrawn or transferred, the bat computer will automatically track the flow of funds.

"Let me see, the unidentified source property of the Jenas Makeup Company, so you are still looking into this?"

Dick asked curiously, "Isn't it already determined that the Penguins are helping Roman Siannis launder money?" ”

"But the books of the Janus company are innocent, and Roman's money is not only from a clear source, but also pays taxes."

Bruce said in a deep voice.

"So the Penguins have another whole money laundering industry chain, which is more hidden than Ethan Shipping, huh...... How could I not be surprised at all? Penguin: This guy always comes up with something hidden. ”

Dick groaned as he touched his chin.

"As long as we can trace the true source of the funds of Janus Makeup, we can dig up another money laundering factory hidden by the penguins, but we don't know if any other factories exist, and maybe they will be hidden even deeper."

"So we can't startle the snake, don't rush to destroy this money laundering factory first, and wait for Shun Teng to find out more clues before launching the operation."

Bruce said.

——

Notice, this woman's name is Nancy, she is from Gotham, and she is an ordinary white-collar worker.

Just like most women want to have good skin, Nancy takes her skincare work very seriously.

Her cosmetics may not be the most expensive, but they must be from large companies, and she thinks that only in this way will they be guaranteed.

There is no doubt that in the first half of Nancy's life, there was only one most well-known cosmetics company in Gotham, and that was Siannis's family business, Janus.

Most of Nancy's cosmetics come from Janus, and the quality of the company's products is really good, and she is very satisfied.

It wasn't until Jenas began to engage in some bizarre non-mainstream designs, which deviated from the original design concept.

This caused a lot of abuse from old users, so that Nancy did not dare to buy Janus cosmetics for months.

However, not long ago, the new chairman of Jenas Cosmetics held a product launch, and they have learned from their past failures and are about to launch a new product called "liquid mask".

Given the reputation that Jenas has accumulated over the years, and the fact that the previously criticized designs are mainly focused on appearance, the quality has not changed much.

Now Jenas is in the darkest moment of the shrinkage of the stock price, but he resolutely launched a new mask product, looking at the introduction effect at the press conference, it seems to be quite good, and more importantly, the appearance is normal.

There are also volunteers who have personally tested the safety of the product, and it seems that there is no problem.

In this way, Nancy decided to believe in Jenas one last time and bought a liquid mask that was not cheap at the first price.

After about half a month, she didn't feel any discomfort, and the mask effect was also very good, so she was relieved.

One day, Nancy put on a liquid mask before going to bed as usual, and it didn't take long for her to faintly feel a hot sensation on her face, and the temperature was getting higher and higher, and it soon became hot.

It was as if she was not applying a mask, but a boiling kettle.

Nancy rushed to the bathroom as soon as possible, wanting to wash off the mask with water.

As it turned out, she made the most wrong choice of the time.

"Ahh

When the tap water touched her face, a tearing pain instantly exploded on her face, making her subconsciously cover her face with her hands.

She shuddered and spread her hands, and a blur of flesh appeared in her palm, scarlet blood staining her entire arm.

Fighting through the intense pain, Nancy struggled to look up at the mirror.

A strange face appeared in her eyes, a face with only flesh and blood and no skin......

In the same amount of time, similar scenes have appeared countless times in Gotham, and everyone who has purchased and used a liquid mask has had serious side effects, ranging from disfigurement to death!

And the initiator of all this, Janus Makeup Company, in the blink of an eye, has become an existence like a rat crossing the street.

Hundreds of victims have filed lawsuits against Jenas and Roman Siannis, and Roman has been scrambled to accept various summons lately.

"Why? Why did things turn out like this! ”

Roman kept slapping the table and yelled angrily.

"Your agitation doesn't help the status quo now, Mr. Siennis."

Across the table, Wayne Group CEO Lucius Fox said with a calm face.

"We can help Janus through this and all the lawsuits will be borne by Wayne Group, but sadly, we will be reorganizing the board of directors of Janas Makeup, and Mr. Siannis you ......"

"I know I'm going to be kicked out of the board by you, and Jenas has nothing to do with me from now on."

Roman sneered.

"There's no way around it, if you stay in the company, the negative public opinion will never be calmed down, and then Jenas will end up with nothing left but a dead end."

Lucius shook his head helplessly.

Without saying a word, Roman signed the contract for the transfer of shares, and then left the company with a cold face, which he regarded as his own.

Wayne Group...... Bruce...... Do you think I'm willing to give my company to you? ”

At this point, Roman still insists on denying that the company's failure was caused by himself, and he believes that Wayne is behind everything.

His conceit, his pride, his stubbornness, made him never doubt himself.

"Wait! Wait for me, I'll make all of you pay! ”

From time to time, Roman had a strange smile on his face, his eyes were red, and he looked like a madman.

He walked unconsciously, like a walking corpse.

By the time Roman came to his senses, he had already found himself in the backyard of his estate.

This is where the family cemetery is located.

Roman looked at the tombstone with his father's name written on it, and the corners of his mouth rose frantically.

He took out a shovel and dug up his father's grave like a madman.

Roman then took out the coffin board and carved a skull-like black mask out of the coffin board......

"Hahahaha!"

Roman put the carved skull mask on his face and let out a maniacal laugh.

I don't know why, but the moment he put on the mask, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

It was as if the shackles that had been imprisoned on him had been lifted, and he was hearty, and his soul was instantly refreshed.

Under this feeling, Roman suddenly felt that he had spent a false first half of his life, and it didn't matter at all what the Siannis family was or what Jenas makeup company was.

Only at this moment of putting on the mask did he become his true self, a complete self.

It may be ethereal, but Roman really feels an indescribable mysterious power that is constantly being generated from the depths of his body.

"I see, Mask...... Only masks, hahahahaha, I've only had masks all my life, hahahahaha......"

Roman laughed wildly in realization, and then stopped abruptly.

From the ultimate madness to the ultimate tranquility.

"Roman Siannis is dead."

Roman said with a serene expression.

"Now, I'm — Black Mask."
