Chapter 525 The Worst-Case Plan!
She also chose to let go of her hatred and became friends with Bruce Wayne.
From then on, the hatred between the Duma family and the Wayne family was resolved.
Even on stormy nights, the Wayne family's reputation still resounds throughout Gotham, as they are regarded as the city's guardians, steadfastly striving to protect Gotham's peace.
However, on the other side of the darkness, the Duma family, like a group of greedy termites, is silently eroding the foundation of the city.
The atmosphere inside the sacrificial hall was extremely tense.
Father Michael, a devout follower of the Duma family, now resembled an enraged beast, his eyes bloodshot, gripping a sharp dagger as he glared menacingly at Bruce Wayne.
Bruce, the young heir of the Wayne family, stood there, his face calm, his eyes revealing an indomitable spirit.
"The Wayne family has always striven to protect Gotham, but you, Duma? You've ruined this city!"
Father Michael's voice echoed in the chapel, filled with anger and resentment.
His words were like a sharp knife, piercing the heart of the Duma family.
Bruce frowned slightly. He was well aware of the Duma family's actions and understood that conflict with them was unavoidable.
But he knew even more clearly that he could not back down at this moment, because he was a member of the Wayne family and a part of Gotham.
"If your family truly fought for the founding of Gotham, then you are only bringing shame upon it today!"
Bruce responded calmly.
His voice wasn't loud, but every word struck Father Michael's heart like a heavy hammer.
Upon hearing this, Father Michael's face instantly turned ashen.
He glared at Bruce as if he wanted to devour him alive.
"Blasphemy!"
He roared and swung the dagger forward, aiming straight for Bruce's chest.
At this critical moment, a black shadow flashed by.
Bruce felt a powerful force pull him aside, and then the dagger grazed his chest, leaving a deep gash.
Bruce looked closely and realized that it was his bodyguard who had saved his life in time.
However, Father Michael did not give up.
He roared and swung his knife at Bruce again.
This time, Bruce didn't give him another chance.
He dodged the dagger attack with a swift movement, and at the same time kicked Father Michael in the stomach, sending him staggering back several steps.
"boom!"
"boom!"
Two gunshots shattered the silence in the sacrificial hall.
It turned out that the Gotham Police Department officers arrived in time.
They broke through the doors of the sacrificial hall and rushed inside.
Sheriff Gordon walked at the front, holding a pistol, his sharp eyes scanning the surroundings.
Gallewin, one of the heads of the Duma family, seeing that things were not going well, immediately tried to pull Tabitha away.
Tabitha was an important member of the Duma family and a key assistant to Gallevin.
However, she did not run away with Gallevan.
She shook off Gallerwin's hand and stayed behind alone.
Gallagher assumed Tabitha was going to rescue Father Michael, so he didn't pay much attention to her.
He was only concerned with escaping and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
However, what he didn't know was that Tabitha was actually guarding against someone taking advantage of the chaos to harm Bruce.
Upon seeing this, the Duma family monks rushed forward and engaged in a fierce battle with the police led by Sheriff Gordon.
However, their strength was simply too weak.
Let alone a seasoned police officer like Chief Gordon, even an ordinary girl like Selena the kitten could be easily subdued.
Soon, the monks were subdued by the police and fell to the ground.
Father Michael was horrified when he saw this.
Having nowhere to run, he decided to fight to the death.
He raised the dagger in his hand and charged at Bruce again.
However, at that moment, a whip came flying through the air and struck his wrist accurately.
The dagger fell to the ground with a thud, and Father Michael screamed in pain.
He turned around and saw a slender woman with a cold and beautiful face standing behind him.
Holding a long whip, her eyes revealed an undeniable determination and authority.
This woman was Bruce's other bodyguard, and also a highly skilled fighter.
"boom!"
Sheriff Gordon seized the opportunity and pulled the trigger, a bullet striking Father Michael squarely in the chest.
His eyes widened, and an expression of disbelief crossed his face.
He never imagined that he would die here, at the hands of Bruce and the police.
Sheriff Gordon holstered his pistol and looked sharply at Tabitha.
He secretly became wary.
He remembered Qin Yang telling him that Gallup had an inside man.
However, he never imagined that this inside man would be Tabitha—Galevan's right-hand woman and the second-in-command of the Duma family.
The identity of this inside man is truly astonishing.
"Miss Tabitha, is there anything else you'd like to say?"
"I asked coldly."
His voice was full of authority and left no room for doubt.
Upon hearing this, Tabitha's lips curled into a cold smile.
She glanced at Bruce, Sheriff Gordon, and the others, her eyes revealing disdain and provocation.
"Hmph, you think you can defeat the Duma family like this? Let me tell you, this is just the beginning!"
Bruce frowned slightly upon hearing this.
He knew that the Duma family was powerful and cunning, and that it would not be easy to defeat them completely.
But he also knew he couldn't back down because he was a member of the Wayne family and a part of Gotham.
“Miss Tabitha, you are wrong.”
Bruce calmly stated, "We're not here to defeat the Duma family, but to protect Gotham and everyone in this city."
Upon hearing this, Tabitha's sneer intensified.
"Protect? What can you protect? Gotham is terminally ill! Only the Duma family can save it!"
Bruce shook his head upon hearing this.
“No, you are wrong.
Gotham needs justice and light, not the darkness and greed of your Duma family.
Tabitha's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.
She glared at Bruce as if she wanted to devour him alive.
"How dare you insult the Duma family like this!"
Bruce did not back down; he looked directly into Tabitha's eyes.
"I was just stating the facts."
Just then, Sheriff Gordon suddenly spoke up.
"Alright, Miss Tabitha."
You no longer have a chance to argue.
Come with us.
Tabitha sneered upon hearing this.
"Trying to catch me? Not so easy!"
As she spoke, she tried to take the opportunity to escape.
However, Sheriff Gordon had anticipated her actions.
He quickly pulled the trigger, and a bullet struck Tabitha precisely in the leg.
She screamed and fell to the ground.
The police seized the opportunity to move in and subdue her.
Looking at the subdued Tabitha and Father Michael lying on the ground, Bruce was filled with mixed emotions.
This battle is just the beginning; to completely defeat the Duma family, much more effort and sacrifice are needed. But he also understands that he cannot back down because he is a member of the Wayne family and a part of Gotham.
"Let's go."
Sheriff Gordon told Bruce, "We still have a lot of work to do."
Bruce nodded and followed Sheriff Gordon out of the shrine.
The night outside was deep, but the twinkling stars seemed to be cheering for the success.
Bruce knew this battle was just the beginning, but he also believed that as long as everyone worked together, they would definitely be able to defeat the Duma family and protect the peace of Gotham.
Bruce, Sheriff Gordon, and others began a difficult investigation and manhunt.
They delved into the Duma family's sphere of influence and engaged in a battle of wits and courage with various criminals.
Every battle was fraught with danger, but they never retreated.
Through repeated clashes, Bruce gradually discovered the Duma family's weaknesses.
He used his courage and boldness to continuously weaken the Duma family's sphere of influence.
He also actively communicated with Gotham City residents to understand their needs and demands in order to provide help and support.
As time went by, Gotham City gradually returned to its former tranquility and prosperity.
The power of the Duma family has also been effectively curbed.
However, Bruce knew that to completely defeat the Duma family, he would need to put in more effort and pay a higher price.
But he also understood that as long as everyone worked together, they would definitely be able to protect Gotham's peace.
During this process, Bruce also met many like-minded friends.
Some were police officers, some were journalists, and some were ordinary citizens.
They were all moved by Bruce's courage and sense of justice and were willing to fight alongside him for the prosperity and peace of Gotham.
The following day, Bruce, Sheriff Gordon, and others were discussing their next course of action.
Suddenly, a rapid telephone ring broke the silence of the room.
Sheriff Gordon answered the phone and listened for a moment before his expression turned serious.
"what happened?"
Bruce asked, seeing this.
Sheriff Gordon put down the phone, took a deep breath, and said:
"We just received news that the head of the Duma family, Galvin, has escaped our pursuit and his whereabouts are currently unknown."
Bruce's heart tightened upon hearing this.
Gallevin is one of the key figures in the Duma family, and his escape will undoubtedly bring great challenges to the investigation.
"We must find him as soon as possible."
Bruce said, "Otherwise, he might stir up another storm."
Sheriff Gordon nodded.
"I have deployed all available police resources for the manhunt."
He said, "But you also know that Gallagher is a very cunning man, so finding him won't be easy."
Bruce fell into deep thought upon hearing this.
He knew that finding Gallagher would require more clues and intelligence.
So he decided to go out and find clues himself.
Bruce traveled to every corner of Gotham City.
He talked with the residents to understand their lives and needs, and also collected a lot of intelligence and clues.
Each conversation gave him a deeper understanding of Gotham City and strengthened his resolve to protect the city.
The following day, Bruce spotted a suspicious figure in a secluded alley.
This person was furtively looking around, searching for something.
Bruce immediately became alert and quietly followed them.
Bruce's investigation revealed that this man was actually a minor leader in the Duma family.
He possessed some clues and intelligence about Gallevan.
Bruce immediately subdued him and took him to the police station for questioning.
During the interrogation, the underling revealed Galervin's hiding place and a major operation he was about to undertake.
Bruce was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately told Sheriff Gordon the news.
Upon hearing this, Sheriff Gordon immediately organized a force to raid Gallervin's hideout.
A fierce battle subdued Galervin, and he was subsequently arrested.
"Mr. Qin Yang."
Tabitha lowered her voice, her tone carrying a hint of awe, which made Gordon admire Qin Yang.
Bruce had been rescued, but after Gordon searched the scene carefully, he discovered that the most important target—Mayor Gallagher—was nowhere to be found.
Where did Gallevan go?
Gordon anxiously asked Tabitha.
Tabitha pointed in a direction and said:
"Mr. Qin Yang has already left. Please come with me."
After saying that, Tabitha led the way forward.
Gordon breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing that Qin Yang had personally intervened, and slowed his pace.
Meanwhile, Galervin took the opportunity to escape at the very beginning of the battle.
He ran all the way to a room that had been prepared in advance.
There was a parachute in the room, and he planned to jump out of the window to escape his pursuers.
However, as soon as Galerwin stepped into the room, all the lights in the room suddenly turned on.
The bright lights shone on his face, revealing his panic and fear.
"Mayor, are you abandoning the people of Gotham so soon?"
A familiar voice came from the corner of the room.
Galler looked in the direction of the sound and saw Qin Yang sitting in a chair facing him.
Behind Qin Yang were the Penguin and the Riddler, two notorious criminals.
Qin Yang stretched out his fingers and began to count:
"Let me count how many days you've been mayor, one day, two days, three days..."
"It's you?"
Gallerwin looked at Qin Yang with surprise and anger, "I never thought I would be defeated by you, a gang leader?"
Although Gotham City has always been dominated by gangs, Galvin has never taken them seriously.
He always used the gang as a tool and never imagined that the gang would become his main adversary.
"Yes, it's us."
The Penguin emerged from behind Qin Yang, limped up to Gallagher, and began to mock him.
The penguin continued:
“Gallerwin, you are so naive.”
You thought you could control everything and manipulate the people of Gotham at will.
But you didn't expect this, did you? Although we usually act independently, we can unite at crucial moments and defeat you in one fell swoop.
The riddle teller chimed in:
“That’s right, Gallerwin.”
You always thought you were smart, but in reality, you're just a fool blinded by your lust for power.
You don't understand at all. True power doesn't come from status or wealth, but from the hearts of the people.
Qin Yang looked at Gallerwin, a cold glint in his eyes.
他 说:
“Gallervin, the crimes you have committed are too numerous to count.”
You have only yourself to blame for your current predicament.
However, I can give you a chance. If you're willing to reveal your accomplices and the evidence of their crimes, I might consider sparing your life.
Upon hearing this, a hint of struggle flashed in Gallerwin's eyes.
But soon, he became more determined in his beliefs.
他 说:
"Qin Yang, don't even think about getting any information out of me."
Since I have chosen this path, I have already prepared for the worst.
I would rather die than betray my comrades. (End of Chapter)
