American comics: Play as Kizaru and get off work in three seconds

Qin Yang patted the Penguin Man's shoulder gently, his eyes full of relief.

When the hand patted the Penguin's shoulder, it was powerful, yet gentle.

That gentle pat seemed to convey a kind of silent encouragement and trust.

His eyes were full of expectations for the Penguin Man, as if he saw infinite possibilities for the Penguin Man's future.

Qin Yang said earnestly: "Oswald, what I need is not your gratitude, but your wisdom and strength.

Gotham needs change, and you and I will be the force for that change."

Qin Yang's voice was low and powerful, and every word was like a seed planted in the penguin man's heart.

His expression was serious, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes revealed a kind of worry about Gotham's current situation and expectations for the future.

He stood very straight, his posture like a tall pine tree, unwavering in the wind.

The Penguin nodded heavily, with unprecedented determination flashing in his eyes.

He nodded vigorously, as if he was swearing to himself.

His eyes were full of determination, a determination to fight to the death.

His eyes were wide open, with a blazing fire burning inside, and that fire seemed to burn away all the darkness.

Penguin said firmly: "I understand, Qin Yang.

From now on, I will be your most loyal ally.

No matter what difficulties you face, I will fight alongside you."

His voice no longer trembled, but became firm and powerful.

He held his chest high, as if to show his determination.

His hands were clenched into fists, which were like two hard stones and full of power.

Qin Yang's eyes revealed a strong interest in the Penguin Man and said, "Oswald, I have seen every move you make.

Your ambition, to me, is a rare gift."

Qin Yang's eyes were like two sharp hooks, tightly hooking the Penguin Man's heart.

His eyes were full of curiosity and appreciation for the Penguin Man, as if he saw a unique treasure in the Penguin Man.

His eyes were slightly narrowed, as if he was thinking about something, or as if he was seeing through the Penguin's appearance to his inner depths.

The Penguin Man was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then a hint of pride and surprise flashed in his eyes.

He never thought that his ambition would be evaluated so positively.

His body stiffened slightly, as if he had been suddenly hit by something.

Then, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and a hint of pride flashed across his face.

The surprise in his eyes was like a flash of lightning, and was soon replaced by joy.

The Penguin Man said cautiously and curiously: "Mr. Qin Yang, you... do you really think so?" There was a cautious expectation in his voice, and his eyes were fixed on Qin Yang, as if he was waiting for an extremely important verdict.

His body leaned forward and his ears seemed to prick up, not wanting to miss every word Qin Yang said.

Qin Yang smiled and said affirmatively: "Of course.

In a Gotham filled with corruption and chaos, your ambition is your most valuable asset.

It drives you to keep pushing yourself and challenging yourself, and that’s what I appreciate.”

Qin Yang's smile is like a blooming flower, full of sincerity and encouragement.

The voice was firm and passionate, as if it was telling a great truth.

There was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes, as if he had seen through the essence of Gotham and the huge potential behind the Penguin's ambitions.

A warm feeling surged in Penguin's heart, and he felt unprecedented recognition and respect.

The warmth flowed through his body like a warm river.

The body is no longer so cold and the heart is full of strength.

There were tears of emotion sparkling in her eyes, and those tears were like crystal pearls.

The Penguin's lips trembled slightly. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.

He just stood there, looking at Qin Yang quietly, enjoying the feeling of being recognized.

Qin Yang continued: "Gotham is like a huge quagmire. Everyone who is trapped in it is struggling, but most people are swallowed by the darkness.

And you, Oswald, you have a power unlike any other.

Your ambition makes you unwilling to be submerged in this quagmire, and you always try to find a way out and try to climb up.

This is a very rare quality.”

Qin Yang paced along the shore as he spoke.

His footsteps were rhythmic, and every step seemed to be hitting the ground, and also seemed to be hitting the Penguin's heart.

His eyes looked at the Penguin from time to time, as if he was constantly giving him strength.

The Penguin Man listened to Qin Yang's words and nodded continuously.

His eyes were full of recognition of Qin Yang's words, and he knew that what Qin Yang said was true.

In the dark world of Gotham, he has been working hard for his ambitions. Although he has encountered countless setbacks and dangers along the way, he has never really given up.

Qin Yang stopped and stood in front of the Penguin, put his hands on his shoulders, looked at him firmly and said, "We want to change Gotham together, and this is not an easy task.

There are too many forces fighting each other here, and too much darkness hiding in every corner.

The first thing we need to do is to build our own power, a power that can contend with those dark forces."

The Penguin raised his head, his eyes full of fighting spirit: "Mr. Qin Yang, I am ready.

I also have some connections and resources of my own in Gotham, although not much, but I believe that under your leadership, we will be able to maximize them. "

Qin Yang nodded slightly, showing a gratified smile: "Very good, Oswald.

I know you are a smart person. You have been working in the bottom of Gotham for so long that you are familiar with every corner here.

This is our advantage.

We must take advantage of these advantages, starting from those neglected areas, and accumulate our strength little by little.”

Qin Yang said this and looked up in the direction of Gotham City.

The night in Gotham City is still dark, and the outline of the city is looming in the darkness.

Those tall buildings stood in the darkness like huge monsters.

There are flickering lights in the city, but those lights cannot dispel the darkness. Instead, they are like ghost lights in the darkness, making the city look even more eerie and terrifying.

"You see, Gotham seems so dark and desperate, but that also means there are countless opportunities waiting for us to explore."

Qin Yang's voice echoed by the quiet river, carrying with it a vision for the future.

The Penguin Man followed Qin Yang's gaze, and his eyes were also full of expectations for the future.

Qin Yang continued, “Our first step is to let those who are struggling at the bottom of Gotham see hope.

They are the foundation of this city, but they are ruthlessly oppressed and exploited by those dark forces.

We need to empower them and let them become our source of strength.”

Penguin frowned and thought for a while, then said: “Mr. Qin Yang, I understand what you mean.

But it's not easy to do this.

Those dark forces will not let us go easily, and they will try every means to stop us."

Qin Yang patted Penguin Man on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Yes, this is a difficult battle.

But we have our advantages. We understand the darkness of Gotham, and we also know the needs of those at the bottom of society.

We need to start with their needs and provide them with what they really need, such as safety, food and dignity.”

Penguin nodded, his eyes became more determined: "Mr. Qin Yang, I know what to do.

I can use my connections at the grassroots level to organize some small groups, provide them with some basic help, and let them feel our sincerity.

Then we can gradually expand our influence.”

Qin Yang nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Oswald.

You have the right idea.

At the same time, we must also be careful to conceal our strength and not expose our goals too early.

Those dark forces are watching each other, and we must grow and develop quietly under their noses."

Just as they were discussing future plans, suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the grass by the river rustled.

Qin Yang and the Penguin Man immediately became alert, their eyes became sharp, and their bodies squatted slightly, ready to deal with any emergency.

Qin Yang whispered to Penguin: "Don't let your guard down, Gotham's night is full of dangers."

The Penguin nodded, and his hand unconsciously clenched a stone beside him, ready to use it as a weapon when necessary.

After a while, it turned out to be a false alarm, and it was just a small animal running through the grass.

Qin Yang and Penguin breathed a sigh of relief, but they also knew that in Gotham, danger could come at any time and they must always be vigilant.

Qin Yang looked at the sky and said, "Oswald, let's find a safe place to rest first.

We've been through a lot tonight and we need to recover.

Tomorrow we will begin implementing our plan.”

The Penguin Man nodded, and he followed Qin Yang to a hidden cave by the river.

The cave looked very hidden, with the entrance blocked by some vines and weeds.

Qin Yang pushed aside the vines and walked into the cave first.

The cave was very damp and had a faint musty smell.

Qin Yang found some dry branches and leaves from the corner and made a small fire.

The fire illuminated the cave, bringing a touch of warmth to this cold and damp place.

The Penguin Man sat by the fire, his body still trembling slightly, but much better than before.

He watched Qin Yang busy in the cave, his heart filled with gratitude.

He knew that from this moment on, his life would be closely linked with Qin Yang. They would face the darkness of Gotham together and pursue a future full of hope together.

Qin Yang took out some blankets from his backpack, handed one to the Penguin Man, and said, “Wrap yourself up first and keep warm.

Let's just stay here tonight."

The Penguin took the blanket and wrapped it around himself.

The blanket was rough, but warm.

Leaning against the wall of the cave, watching the flames in the fire dancing, my heart was filled with longing for the future.

In the cave, Qin Yang and the Penguin Man were roasting a fire.

The flame was jumping in the center of the cave, making crackling sounds, and sparks were flying out from time to time, like a group of naughty elves playing in the dark.

The flames emitted a warm orange glow, illuminating the rough stone walls of the cave.

There were traces of erosion from time to time on the stone wall, and some places were still seeping with water, which flickered faintly under the light of the fire.

Qin Yang and the Penguin Man sat opposite each other, their figures swaying on the stone wall under the projection of the firelight, as if they were two mysterious shadow play characters.

The firelight illuminated their faces. Qin Yang's face looked calm and serious. His eyes looked intently at the Penguin Man, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

The Penguin's face was tired and a little apprehensive. After the previous life-and-death escape, he looked a little disheveled, but there was still a light in his eyes that showed his unwillingness to be ordinary.

While the two were talking, Qin Yang immediately changed the subject and pointed out the shortcomings of his action.

Qin Yang said seriously: “Oswald, your impatience is also obvious.

You are eager to prove yourself, but ignore the importance of planning and layout.

This betrayal plan against Fish is the best example."

Qin Yang's voice echoed in the cave, and the serious tone made the air in the cave seem to become a little more solemn.

His eyes were fixed on the Penguin, as if he wanted to see through him, to see through the impulsiveness and recklessness deep in his heart.

The Penguin Man lowered his head, and his head slowly drooped down like a heavy weight.

A trace of shame flashed across his face.

His hair was still wet, and a few strands of hair stuck to his forehead, swaying slightly as he lowered his head.

His lips were tightly pursed and the corners of his mouth drooped, showing his inner annoyance.

The Penguin Man had to admit that what Qin Yang said was true.

He did reveal a flaw because of his impatience, which led to the failure of his plan.

He recalled that when he was formulating the plan to betray Fish, he was only thinking about overthrowing Fish quickly and gaining greater power and status, but he did not fully consider whether the various links in the plan were closely linked, and did not anticipate possible variables.

The Penguin said sincerely: "Mr. Qin Yang, you are right.

I...I was indeed too impatient.

But I swear I will be more careful and consider things more thoroughly in the future.”

The Penguin's voice was very low, with a deep sense of self-blame.

His eyes were fixed on the floor of the cave, which was made of uneven soil with some small stones scattered around.

The Penguin Man unconsciously clenched his fists, as if to cheer himself up, and as if to show his determination to Qin Yang.

Seeing this, Qin Yang curled up a satisfied smile.

That smile was like a small flower blooming in the darkness. Although it was very subtle, it had a special power.

The Penguin is a smart and capable man, and given the right guidance, he can become a sharp sword in his own hands.

Qin Yang knew that in this chaotic Gotham City, it was rare to find someone as ambitious and intelligent as the Penguin. Although he had some fatal flaws, as long as he could correct them, he would be able to unleash tremendous energy.

Qin Yang encouraged, "Very good, Oswald. I believe you have the ability to correct your shortcomings.

Moreover, I am willing to provide you with a bigger stage so that your ambitions can be truly realized."

Qin Yang's voice became gentler and no longer as serious as before.

His eyes were full of anticipation, like a farmer looking at the land he was about to sow, full of longing for a good harvest in the future.

The Penguin looked up suddenly, his movement seemed a little abrupt because of his excitement.

His eyes widened instantly, with a gleam of disbelief in them.

The light was like two meteors suddenly lighting up in the night sky, full of surprise and hope.

The Penguin never thought that he would get such a precious opportunity.

In Gotham, a place full of darkness and competition, opportunities are like scarce treasures that few people would give to others so generously.

The Penguin Man said excitedly: "Mr. Qin Yang, are you...are you telling the truth? Do I really have a chance to realize my ambition?" His voice trembled with excitement, and his body leaned forward unconsciously, as if he wanted to get closer to this hope.

He stared at Qin Yang without blinking, fearing that this was just a dream and would disappear if he blinked.

Qin Yang said confidently: "Of course.

But before that, we need to solve the problem at hand.

Fish won't give up, she will definitely track you down.

So, we had to do something to cover up this operation.”

Qin Yang's expression became serious again. He sat up straight, crossed his hands on his chest, and exuded a calm and confident temperament.

There was a sense of control over the situation in his eyes, like an experienced chess player who, although facing the threat from his opponent, has already planned a response strategy in his mind.

Upon hearing this, the Penguin Man immediately suppressed his excitement. He knew that now was not the time to indulge in joy.

He sat up straight, put his hands on his knees, and listened carefully to Qin Yang's plan.

The Penguin Man had a focused look on his face, his eyes fixed on Qin Yang, his ears like two sensitive radars, not wanting to miss any word Qin Yang said.

Qin Yang explained in detail: "First, I will arrange for people to clean up all traces related to your actions, including surveillance videos, communication records, etc."

Qin Yang gestured with his hands as he spoke.

His fingers were long and powerful, and in the light of the fire, they looked like batons, drawing invisible tracks in the air.

“As for surveillance video, I have people who are good at cracking security systems. They can quietly enter the background of the surveillance system and delete those clips that may expose your actions.

This is not an easy task. Although Gotham's surveillance system seems to be full of loopholes, each force has its own encryption method.

However, my people have mastered various cracking techniques after long-term research and practice."

Qin Yang's eyes revealed confidence in the abilities of his men.

“As for the communication records, that is even more complicated.

Today's communication devices have various encryption and backup mechanisms.

We need to start from the source, find the devices that may store your communication information, and then completely clear them.

This might involve some hacking into the telecommunications company databases, but I have the connections and the technical means to do that.”

Qin Yang continued to explain in detail, his voice steady and clear, every word was like a nail, driving into the Penguin Man's heart, giving him a clearer understanding of Qin Yang's plan.

"At the same time, I will also release some false information to mislead Fish's investigation direction."

Qin Yang continued, “I will use Gotham’s underground intelligence network to spread some false clues.

For example, I'd spread the word that you'd fled Gotham and gone to some faraway place.

Or create the illusion that you have been captured by some other force.

We will plant some seemingly real evidence in different locations to confuse Fish's pursuers."

There was a cunning light flashing in Qin Yang's eyes, the kind of look that only someone who is good at planning can have.

The Penguin nodded to show his understanding.

But he also knew that this was only a temporary solution and could not fundamentally solve the problem.

There was a hint of worry in his eyes, and he frowned, with a few shallow wrinkles appearing on his forehead.

The Penguin rubbed his hands nervously on his knees, and the rough palms made a slight rustling sound when they rubbed against his pants.

Penguin Man said worriedly: “But, Mr. Qin Yang, this is only a temporary solution.

Once Fish discovers the truth, we will still face a huge threat."

There was a worry about the future in his voice. In Gotham City, Fish was a force that could not be underestimated. Her ruthlessness and powerful connections made her a very dangerous enemy.

Qin Yang said confidently: "Don't worry, Oswald.

I've been prepared.

I will use my intelligence network to gradually weaken Fish's power.

At the same time, I will also look for opportunities to completely defeat her in one fell swoop."

Qin Yang's expression became firm, and his eyes revealed a resolute determination.

His body leaned forward slightly, like a cheetah about to pounce on its prey.

"My intelligence network covers every corner of Gotham, from the dark underworld to the seemingly bright upper class.

I have all kinds of informants who will provide me with all kinds of information about Fish's forces.

I will start with her source of income and cut off her funding chain.

Without money, her subordinates would panic and many of her actions would be restricted. "

Qin Yang's voice was full of power, and his hands were waving in the air, as if he was drawing a grand blueprint for attacking Fish.

“At the same time, I will create conflicts within her.

This caused suspicion and fighting among her subordinates.

I will play on their greed and fear and sow discord.

When cracks appear within her power, that will be the best time for us to strike."

Qin Yang continued, his eyes flashing with wisdom, as if he had already seen the scene of Fish's power collapsing under his planning.

The Penguin said with a trembling voice and red eyes: "Mr. Qin Yang, I... I don't know how to express my gratitude.

Not only did you save my life, you gave me a chance at life again.

From this day forward, I, Oswald Cobblepot, pledge my all to you."

The Penguin's voice is full of genuine emotion.

There were tears glistening in his eyes, and those tears were rolling in his eye sockets, ready to burst out at any time.

The Penguin Man's lips trembled slightly, and his heart was deeply moved by Qin Yang's generosity and wisdom.

He knew that in this dark Gotham City, Qin Yang was his only hope and the person he truly deserved to follow.

Qin Yang nodded slightly, his eyes showing both satisfaction and expectation.

To control an ambitious person like Penguin, you must give him enough stage and trust, and at the same time make him understand that loyalty and ability are mutual.

Qin Yang looked at the Penguin as if he was looking at a weapon that had just been polished. Although it still needed more refinement, it already had the potential to become a sharp weapon.

There is an expectation for the future in his eyes. He expects that under his guidance, the Penguin can become an important force in changing Gotham.

Qin Yang added: “Oswald, our cooperation is not just for our personal interests.

Gotham has been mired in darkness for too long, and the people here live in fear and despair.

What we need to do is to bring real light to Gotham.

This is a difficult task, but I believe that as long as we work together, we can achieve this goal.”

Qin Yang's voice became solemn, and his eyes were filled with a sense of mission.

The Penguin nodded firmly and wiped his eyes with his sleeve to wipe away the tears that were about to flow.

He said: "Mr. Qin Yang, I understand.

I will keep this goal in mind, and I am willing to contribute everything I have to the future of Gotham and our ideals."

His voice was no longer trembling, but was filled with firm conviction.

At this time, the wind outside the cave was blowing, making the vines at the entrance of the cave rustle.

Qin Yang stood up, walked to the corner of the cave, and took out a small notebook and a pen from a hidden place.

He walked back to his original seat, sat down and started writing and drawing in his notebook.

The Penguin looked at Qin Yang curiously and asked, "Mr. Qin Yang, what are you writing?" Qin Yang replied as he wrote, "I'm organizing our next preliminary plan.

We need to plan every step in detail without any omissions.”

The Penguin Man came forward and looked at the contents of Qin Yang's notebook.

Qin Yang's handwriting was very neat, and every word seemed to be written on paper after careful consideration.

There were some simple diagrams drawn on the notebook, with the outline of a map of Gotham City and some important locations marked on it, such as the main stronghold of Fish's forces and some of Qin Yang's own secret contact points.

There are also some arrows and lines connecting different locations, with some notes written next to them, such as "intelligence transmission route" and "material transportation channel".

Qin Yang pointed to the contents in the notebook and said to Penguin Man: "Look, we should start from here.

First, cut off Fish's capital flow in the area, which is one of her main sources of income, an underground casino.

My people will sneak in disguised as customers and create some chaos inside, making it impossible for the casino to conduct business normally.

At the same time, we will arrange personnel outside to prevent her subordinates from providing support."

The Penguin listened attentively, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.

He said: "Mr. Qin Yang, this plan is very ingenious.

But Fish will certainly be on guard, and her casino should have strong security measures."

Qin Yang nodded and said, "That's right, so we need more detailed preparations.

My men will investigate the casino's security system in advance and find out the loopholes.

We will also prepare some special equipment, such as instruments that can interfere with monitoring equipment and tools that can break through access control systems."

Qin Yang continued writing in the notebook. He drew a simple sketch of a person and wrote "Insider" next to it.

He said: "We also need an insider who is familiar with the inner workings of the casino.

I already have a candidate. He's a small thug in the casino. He's dissatisfied with Fish's men because he's been bullied by them.

We just need to give him enough benefits and he will help us."

Penguin Man looked at the portrait of the spy in Qin Yang's notebook and said, "Mr. Qin Yang, is this spy reliable? If he betrays us, our plan will fail completely."

Qin Yang smiled and said, “I have already investigated him.

He's a family man, and his family is now threatened by Fish's people.

As long as we protect his family, he will work for us wholeheartedly.

Moreover, we will not completely trust him, and we will arrange people to monitor his every move during the operation."

After listening to Qin Yang's explanation, the Penguin Man nodded with relief.

He said: "Mr. Qin Yang, you are very thoughtful.

I believe that by following this plan, we will be able to successfully weaken Fish's power."

Qin Yang closed the book and said, "This is just the first step.

While we're taking action against the casinos, we're also going to put pressure on Fish in other areas.

For example, I would have my intelligence agents spread rumors that someone within Fish's faction had betrayed her.

Such rumors will sow suspicion among her men and prevent them from uniting to meet our attack."

Penguin Man said: “Mr. Qin Yang, you are really good at psychological warfare.

If this rumor spreads, Fish will definitely spend a lot of energy investigating it, which will distract her attention and make her have no time to pay attention to our real actions."

Qin Yang said: “That’s right.

We just want to throw her into chaos, and then we can defeat her one by one.

However, we also have to be careful of Fish's counterattack.

She is a very cunning person, she might see through some of our schemes and take revenge on us.

Therefore, we must remain vigilant at all times during the course of our actions and adjust our plans according to the actual situation.”

Penguin said: "Mr. Qin Yang, I will always be vigilant.

I will follow your instructions and will not let you down."

Qin Yang said in a calm but firm tone: “Oswald, I feel your loyalty.

But remember, loyalty is not an empty oath, but needs to be proved by actions. "

Qin Yang's voice echoed softly in the cave, with a steady power, as if every word was spoken after careful consideration.

His eyes were focused and deep, like the cold stars twinkling in the quiet night sky, staring at the Penguin Man closely.

Qin Yang sat upright, his body slightly leaning forward, his hands casually placed on his knees, showing a posture that was both relaxed and majestic.

“I saved you because you have abilities and potential that others don’t have.

I hope you can show these and create a brighter future for me and yourself."

His words were like a trickle of water, slowly flowing into the Penguin Man's heart. Every syllable was clearly audible, with unquestionable sincerity.

Upon hearing this, the Penguin puffed out his chest, like a fighting cock that was injected with infinite energy.

His body instantly became straight, and the hunched posture that was originally caused by fatigue immediately disappeared.

Penguin stretched his shoulders back, as if he wanted to carry the weight of the world. (End of this chapter)
