18 Chapter 18

In the dungeon, there are Oswald Copott the penguin, Edward Nigma the Riddler, Peter Parker the spider cub, and ...... Hope cub who is completely unaware of the situation.

Outside the dungeon was Theo Galevin and his lackeys of one hundred and eighty pounds.

Theo Galevin slowly approached the door of the cell with a gun, his eyes were dangerous, and the villain was full of aura.

But Copot is not afraid, he has finally found his mother, and he has Hope, an unscientific wonder cub by his side.

"Unthinkable, Theo Gellerven, Mr. Mayoral Candidate, you threaten me with my mother, and now?" Copote let go of his mother's hand and glared at the man at the door, "I'd like to see what else you're going to threaten me with right now." "It's his turn, he's going to take back everything he's lost, and he's going to give all that pain back to Theo Galevin, tenfold and hundredfold!

Nigma frantically backs away and hides herself in a corner, trying to play an innocent citizen who is coerced by the penguin people.

Peter looked at the man at the door, and finally remembered where he had seen each other.

The mayoral candidate has been photographed all over the streets of Gotham lately, and although he is busy filling his belly and occasionally doing some superhero work in a more subtle way, he has not had time to pay attention to the campaign games belonging to the rich, but he has also seen the gentleman's face in the media and posters.

He is said to be kind and kind, and will bring hope to the fallen city of Gotham.

That's not the point, though. The point is that Peter had seen this Mr. Gellaven appear in an alley on the island late one night.

It's just that Mr. Gallervan wasn't in the suit and leather shoes he is now.

By the dim light of the streetlights, Peter caught only a quick glimpse of Theo Gellerwin's eyes. And he also has a strange black robe on his body, and the sharp blade in his hand reflects silver light in the moonlight, looking like a religious believer.

Peter didn't remember the rest of the details very clearly, when he was so startled that he almost called the police. But there were no bodies or blood in the vicinity, so he examined it carefully, continued to pay attention for several days, and when he found that nothing had happened, he let go of the matter.

Now that he saw Theo Gellerven again, the man in the black cloak that night came to Peter's mind.

What did Mr. Mayor Candidate do when he appeared on Naho Island in that costume? It's not going to be cosplay or performance art. Peter took a closer look at Theo Gellerven's walking posture and shape, and finally determined that he was the man in the black robe that night.

"I really didn't expect that, dear Copote," said Theo Gellerven, who approached the prison gate, one step away from the penguin, his eyes gradually sweeping over the people in prison, "I didn't expect you to walk into my prison by yourself. Tell me, how did you do it? With a ...... GCPD man and two small children. "He had met this Edward Nigma, and many GCPD cases had passed through him, and although he was not a case investigator, he knew all the information about the GCPD, as well as the physical evidence in various cases.

Acquaintance with the other party is because this person once refused his bribe. But now it seems that this Mr. Nygma also has some little secrets.

The Riddler continues to crouch in the corner, pretending that he is weak and innocent and does not exist.

Theo Galevin was discussing mayoral running with his subordinates when he received news that something was wrong with him in prison.

Now it seems that the problem is indeed quite big, how did Oswald Cobott and the group behind him find this place through the prison door out of thin air? And who revealed the location to the penguin people?

The prison was built by Gellerwyn to imprison and punish some of his enemies. Cobott and his stupid mother should be honored because it was expensive and even imprisoned the previous mayor.

However, Theo Galevin now suspected that someone had opened a secret passage here, and that it was through such a secret passage that the Penguins had entered. It's like he built a secret passage in the penguin's lair.

Things all seem to have gone off the rails lately. He was about to have people kill Bruce Wayne, but he failed, and even let Bruce escape to the Penguin's territory. The house with the secret passage was indeed what he was going to show to the GCPD, and the end of the secret passage led to the territory of Copote, and when the time came, the death of the young master of the Wayne family would only be framed on Copote's head.

It just so happens that James Gordon has been investigating the Penguin Man for a long time. That's reason enough for Gordon to take the GCPD and the penguin people dog-eat-dog, while he sits back and reaps the benefits.

In this way, he can perfectly deal with the young master of the Wayne family and the stupid king of Gotham, and he can also hide himself perfectly behind the scenes.

Even the killers will only identify the penguin people. Because he had already bought Butch Giltz, the matter of contacting the killer was done by the Penguin's first lackey, and it had nothing to do with him Theo Gellerwin.

It's just that things seem to be out of his control. First, Master Wayne escapes the killers, and then the Penguins discover Butch Giltz's betrayal and begin to clean up the Gotham gang, pulling out several nails that he has painstakingly planted. Butch Giltz eventually betrayed him and replaced the Penguins as the Underground King of Gotham. Now, the Penguin has not been killed by Butch Giltz, and can even lead people to discover his secret prison.

"Tell me about it," Gelleven reached into the iron railing, grabbed Colbert by the collar, and pulled the man in front of him, "I think you'll tell me how you found this place." You know my methods, and if you don't listen to me, think of what will happen to you and poor Mrs. Copote. ”

Copote broke Theo Gellervin's hand and sneered, he wasn't afraid of these verbal threats now, he had Hope!

"Why, do you still think you can control me? I managed to find my mother, and you don't have any weapons to threaten me! Now, it's your turn to bear my wrath! ”

Theo Gellerven took a closer look at the prison gatesβ€”there was no sign of anyone opening or breaching them, and he had ordered his men to guard the perimeter of the prison, and even if Colbert did have access to the secret passage, he would be able to catch him. After all, so many people don't disappear into thin air.

So he was really curious about what it was that Copote fearlessly relied on on his turf. This guy didn't even have a gun on him, and he was caught while saving people. Is he going to take this group of old, weak, sick and disabled people with him?

Edward Sick and Old, one of the sick and old, broke out in a cold sweat when he was provoked by the penguins. He felt like he was probably the most innocent of the men, and at the same time the weakest. Mrs. Copot has his son desperately protective, and he has seen the abilities of the two cubs. Who will protect him, Nigma feels that there is a high chance that he will be cannon fodder. That's not good, he just discovered that there is magic in the world, how can he die like this?

I knew that he was not curious, but now he has made himself into a fire pit. But it can't be helped, it's in his nature to be attracted to strange puzzles, and if he is given another chance, he will still choose to come in.

The door that appeared out of thin air on the wall was gone.

Ignores Copper, who is still talking to Theo Gellerven, who is a cautious mayoral candidate who will not kill them easily until he figures this out.

So he still has a chance to escape, and he still needs to find a way to keep Theo Galevin and his men from being able to tell him about his connection to the Penguins. He's a badass, yes, but GCPD's job is fun, and he doesn't want to expose himself at the moment.

Good news, at least now he's safe, let the idiot Cobot and Theo Galevin continue to wrestle.

Bad news, he doesn't know what the abilities of the two cubs are at all, there is too little information available, and it is difficult for him to find a way to save himself.

Nygma crouched on the ground, hugged the two cubs left and right, and smiled kindly.

"So my lovely boys, who's going to tell me who has the magic?" Nygma's preference for opening strange passages is Hope's ability, otherwise why does the Penguin keep saying that Hope is the key to his mother's recovery?

Mrs. Copote had fainted from the excitement of seeing her son, and it was good, at least the fragile lady wouldn't scream and mess with them.

"I'm curious, who sent us here?" Edward Nigma continued, "Would you like to play a game with me?" How about we guess the riddle, and if you don't guess the answer, Hope is going to tell me how you did it, okay? "Hope, it seems, is easier to deceive, and Nygma decides to start with the blonde imp first.

Peter on the side wanted him to stop laughing, it looked really creepy, to the extent that an ordinary five-year-old would cry when he saw it.

Although neither Hope nor Peter cried.

However, Peter had no idea how this had happened. Hope didn't seem surprised by the normal look, and he was even eager to try his hand at Mr. Nygma's riddle game, completely unaware of the danger they were facing.

Edward Nigma's gaze locked on Hope's face.

"Oh, it's you, little Hope." Nigma affirmed, "Well, I'm more concerned about how we get back to where we were, and I'm sure you can do that, right?" Send us back to where we came from. ”

Peter looked at Hope with the same nervous expression, he could see that the people outside were not easy to mess with, Theo Gellervin was concerned about what he didn't shoot for the time being, the penguin people were yelling at Gellervin, and the mayoral candidate, who lacked the dirty words of the streets of Gotham, obviously failed to scold the penguins, and was being so angry that his face turned blue.

Peter was tempted to cover Hope's little ears, which a child should not have to listen to.

Peter is a little hesitant now, whether to expose his special abilities openly, and the other problem is that he is only 5 years old now, even if he is a super Spider-Man, he is still no match for the machine gun strafing on the opposite side without equipment, and it is difficult for him to save everyone out while protecting everyone.

It would be nice if Hope could just open the strange door and send everyone back like he had just done. But Peter is more worried about whether Hope will be exposed to greater danger because of this, such a ability to cross space is too special and terrifying, and of course, for the villain, this ability is even more tempting.

No matter what, he will definitely keep Hope safe.

"I think we can talk to Mr. Theo Gellerven first," Peter took Hope's hand and told him not to speak, "I don't think Mr. Gellerven will kill us easily, and when he leaves, we will find a way to escape." ”

Let Hope expose his ability in front of everyone's eyes, and the child will not want to have a peaceful life in the future. Peter, by contrast, prefers to keep the eyes of the crowd on himself.

Hope looked innocently at Peter and Nigmar, wondering why they were so surprised by their abilities, not only could he do it, but Pap, Lucifer, and Lucien could actually do it, but he seemed to be doing it a little easier.

As for the question this man asked him -

"But there's no door here for Hope to open." Hope said.

"Wait, what do you mean there's no door?" Edward Nigma, with his super high IQ, immediately had a not-so-good association: "You mean you have to open the door to leave?" ”

Hope nodded, and the humans all left through the door.

Of course, this belongs to Hope's stereotype, at least his dear Bruce dad often climbs through the window to avoid Alfred's nagging. Hope has never seen this scene yet, because Alfred does not allow Bruce to 'teach bad sons'.

"Just stay here." Theo Gellerven still couldn't win the Penguins in the end, but it didn't matter, the group had fallen into the net anyway, and he would never let them go this time.

"It's up to you, it's too early to trap me!" Colbert took a sip from Gallervan, then hugged Hope, "Honey, give him a little bit of a good taste!" ”

He held Hope up to Gallervan, expecting Hope to immediately curse Gallerven to hell.

Hope smiled sweetly at the stranger: "I want to drink juice, can Hope drink juice?" ”

Theo Gellerwin: ......

Is Cobott completely insane?
