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

“Nigma, you’ve come at the right time.”

Qin Yang's tone was somewhat teasing, "I thought you'd be late because you couldn't solve my riddle."

Nigma pushed up his glasses, a confident smile curving his lips: "Lord Qin Yang, your riddle is indeed interesting, but to me, it's child's play."

I've cracked the code you left behind, which points to the basement of the Gotham Hotel.

Gallagher was planning to set up an ambush there, wasn't he?

Qin Yang nodded, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "As expected of the riddle master, you can even see through my little tricks."

That's right, Gallagher thought he could use Bruce to lure out the main force of the Gotham gang and then wipe them out in one fell swoop.

But he didn't know that we had already laid a trap.

Nigma took a few steps closer, holding a hand-drawn map densely marked with the structure of the Gotham Hotel and possible ambush points.

He pointed to a red circle on the map and said in a low voice, "According to my analysis, Gallagher will deploy heavy firepower in the underground parking lot in an attempt to cut off the Gotham gang's escape route."

His real target might be Oswald.

"Penguin?"

Qin Yang raised an eyebrow. "That Gallerwin guy really knows how to pick on the weak."

While Oswald is cunning, direct combat is not his forte.

Nigma sneered: "So we have to completely disrupt Gallevin's plans before he can make a move."

I suggest we split up. You go deal with Gallagher's strongpoint, and I'll lead a team to infiltrate the hotel and protect Oswald and the three targets.

Qin Yang narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then said, "Good idea, but there's a problem."

Galerwin has a woman named Tabitha by his side, and her fighting prowess should not be underestimated.

If she takes action herself, can you handle it?

A glint of excitement flashed in Nigma's eyes. He licked his lips, his tone tinged with fervor: "Tabitha? Hmph, I've wanted to meet her for a long time."

She may be fast and strong, but my brain is much faster than hers.

Give me five minutes, and I can throw her into her own trap and throw her into disarray.

Qin Yang laughed and patted Nigma on the shoulder: "Good, I like your confidence! It's settled then. I'll deal with the heavy firepower in the parking lot, and you take the men to protect Oswald."

Remember, act quickly, don't give Gallup a chance to turn the tables.

"no problem."

Nigma put away the map, his eyes gleaming with fighting spirit. "However, Mr. Qin Yang, are you sure your 'three-second off-duty' plan won't be delayed because of Tabitha?"

Qin Yang waved his hand, his tone relaxed yet filled with undeniable confidence: "Delay? That doesn't exist."

The word 'overtime' doesn't exist in Kizaru's dictionary.

Alright, let's get started!

Before he finished speaking, Qin Yang's figure transformed into a golden ray of light and vanished from the spot in an instant, leaving only a slight tremor in the air.

Nigma stared in the direction he had disappeared, muttering to himself, "What a terrifying fellow... but this game has only just begun."

Meanwhile, in the underground parking lot of the Gotham Hotel, Gallagher's men were busy setting up weapons.

Dozens of fully armed mercenaries were carrying heavy machine guns and explosives in the dim light, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and engine oil.

A tall man stood in the center, holding a walkie-talkie, and whispered instructions: "Everyone, check your equipment. We'll move out in ten minutes."

Remember, the target is Oswald Copport; he must not leave the hotel alive.

"Boss, the perimeter surveillance is all set up, and the Gotham gang hasn't noticed anything yet."

One of his men came over and reported in a low voice.

"Okay, good job."

The tall man nodded, a sinister smile spreading across his face. "After tonight, Gotham will be ours."

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a dazzling golden light flashed from the parking lot entrance, followed by a deep, mocking voice: "Oh, you guys are so busy, still working overtime so late, how terrifying~"

The mercenaries were startled and immediately raised their weapons, aiming them in the direction from which the sound came.

Qin Yang was standing on the roof of a black SUV, his hands in his pockets, a lazy smile on his face.

His figure appeared somewhat ethereal in the dim light, as if he might vanish into light at any moment.

"who?!"

The tall man roared and raised his submachine gun, "Stop right there if you don't want to die!"

Qin Yang tilted his head, his tone still flippant: "Stop? Sorry, I dislike standing still the most."

"Are you going to keep this pile of junk for the New Year?"

Before he finished speaking, his figure flashed, transforming into a golden light, and he instantly appeared in front of the tall man.

Before the other party could react, Qin Yang raised his foot and kicked the man away with terrifying force, sending him crashing heavily into the concrete wall with a dull thud.

The whole process took less than a second, clean and efficient.

"Boss!"

The other mercenaries cried out in alarm and pulled their triggers, raining bullets down on Qin Yang.

However, Qin Yang's figure transformed into golden light once again, easily dodging all attacks. The next second, he appeared behind another mercenary. With a light tap of his finger, a laser beam shot out from his fingertip, accurately piercing the opponent's weapon.

"Tsk, such terrible marksmanship, and you still dare to hang out here? That's terrifying~"

Qin Yang's tone was somewhat sarcastic, his hands still in his pockets, as if he were taking a leisurely stroll.

In less than three seconds, half of the mercenaries in the parking lot had fallen, and the rest panicked and tried to escape.

Qin Yang gave them no chance, his figure weaving through the crowd like a shadow, each flash accompanied by the fall of a mercenary.

His movements were so fast that they were impossible to see clearly; only streaks of golden light could be seen flashing in the darkness, like the scythe of death.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

A mercenary shouted in terror and tried to rush toward the parking lot exit.

However, Qin Yang was already blocking the exit. He raised his hand, a dazzling ball of light condensing in his palm, and said with a smile, "Trying to run? Did you ask me first?"

The ball of light exploded, transforming into countless laser beams that precisely struck all the mercenaries who were trying to escape.

The entire parking lot fell silent instantly, with only the clanging of metal weapons and the groans of the mercenaries remaining.

Qin Yang clapped his hands and nodded in satisfaction: "Three seconds, time to leave work on time."

On Friday, the parking lot was cleared; now it's Nigma's turn.

"Yes, sir."

Friday's voice came through the communicator: "Nigma has entered the hotel and is approaching Oswald's location."

Tabitha and her men appeared in the third-floor corridor, expecting a firefight in five minutes.

"Tabitha, oh, Nigma's show is about to begin."

Qin Yang's lips curled up, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes, "I'll go and support him, lest he get too carried away and forget about the important matter."

Meanwhile, in the corridor on the third floor of the Gotham Hotel, Nigma led a small team of Gotham's elite members silently forward.

His steps were light and cautious, a pistol clutched in his hand, yet his eyes gleamed with excitement. At the end of the corridor, Tabitha's figure gradually came into focus; she wore a tight black outfit, wielded two knives, and was followed by several well-trained assassins.

"Nigma, I never expected you to come here to die in person."

Tabitha's voice was cold and filled with murderous intent, her eyes fixed on Nigma like a venomous snake. "For Barbara's sake, I will make you pay the price today."

Nigma pushed up his glasses and gave a meaningful smile: "Tabitha, you're still as impulsive as ever."

I'm sorry about Barbara, but you've come to the wrong person.

The real enemy is Gallagher; he's the one who turned your friend into that person.

"Cut the nonsense!"

Tabitha roared, brandished her twin swords, and charged toward Nigma with a fierce killing intent.

She was incredibly fast; the blade flashed twice in the air, aiming straight for Nigma's throat.

However, Nigma was prepared. He dodged to the side, and a flashbang suddenly appeared in his hand, which he slammed into the ground.

A blinding white light instantly engulfed the entire corridor, briefly blinding Tabitha and her men, causing them to freeze in their tracks.

Nigma took the opportunity to step back a few steps and whispered to the team members behind him, "According to the plan, split up and lure her men away."

The Gotham gang members quickly dispersed and engaged in fierce firefights with Tabitha's men.

Gunshots and the clash of swords echoed through the corridor, sparks flying everywhere.

Nigma calmly observed Tabitha's movements, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Tabitha, your swordsmanship is good, but it's a pity your brain is a bit lacking."

"you wanna die!"

Tabitha roared, shaking off the effects of the flashbang, and lunged at Nigma again.

Her twin blades attacked like a storm, each strike carrying deadly force.

Nigma remained calm and took out a specially made remote control from his pocket and pressed the button.

The walls on both sides of the corridor suddenly popped open, spewing out thick smoke that enveloped Tabitha.

Her vision was completely blocked, and her movements became sluggish.

Nigma seized the opportunity to get behind her, holding a stun gun in his hand, and struck her hard on the back of the neck.

"what!"

Tabitha cried out in pain and collapsed, her body convulsing.

Nigma stood beside her, adjusted his glasses, and said calmly, "I told you, you're not smart enough."

Just then, a golden light flashed from the end of the corridor, and Qin Yang's figure appeared beside Nigma.

He glanced at Tabitha lying on the ground and said with a smile, "Tsk, Nigma, you're a bit slow. I thought you could finish in five seconds."

Nigma rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "Mr. Qin Yang, if you had arrived a second later, I would have had to work overtime."

Tabitha is stronger than I expected.

"Okay, stop complaining."

Qin Yang waved his hand, "Where is Oswald? We need to move him quickly, Gallevin's main force is probably arriving soon."

Nigma pointed to the room at the end of the corridor: "He's in the VIP suite. I've already had the entrance guarded."

However, Gallup may have other tricks up his sleeve, so we need to be careful.

Qin Yang nodded, a cold glint in his eyes: "A backup plan? Hmph, no matter how many backup plans he has, they can't stop my speed of light."

"Come on, take me to see the penguin."

The two quickly arrived at the VIP suite, pushed open the door, and saw Oswald Copport standing by the window, holding an exquisite pistol in his hand, his face gloomy.

Several loyal bodyguards stood beside him, creating a tense atmosphere.

"Qin Yang! Nigma! You've finally arrived!"

Oswald breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the two of them. "That bastard Galerwin wanted me dead here. I almost fell into his trap."

Qin Yang stepped forward, patted Oswald on the shoulder, and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't panic, Penguin. With me here, no one can touch you."

Galervin's plan has failed. I've cleared out the parking lot's strongholds, and Tabitha has been taken care of by Nigma.

Now, he's all alone.

A flicker of gratitude crossed Oswald's eyes, but he immediately frowned: "But I heard that Galerwin has a reinforcement, possibly from the Court of Owls."

If they arrive, we're afraid we won't be able to handle it.

"The Court of Owls?"

Qin Yang sneered, "Just a bunch of cowardly old guys hiding their true colors."

Don't worry, I have ways to expose them.

"Nigma, you take Oswald out the back door. I'm going to meet with Gallevin."

"Wait, Lord Qin Yang, it's too dangerous for you to go alone."

Nigma frowned and said, "The Court of Owls is not to be underestimated; they may have even stronger assassins."

Qin Yang waved his hand, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes: "Danger? Tsk, danger is what I like most."

"Don't worry, in three seconds I can make Gallagher regret coming to Gotham."

Before he finished speaking, Qin Yang's figure transformed into golden light once again and disappeared from the room.

Oswald stared in the direction he had disappeared, muttering to himself, "That guy... he's terrifyingly reassuring."

Meanwhile, in the top-floor conference room of the Gotham Hotel, Gallagher stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, looking down at the chaos below.

He held a glass of red wine in his hand, but his face showed no smugness; instead, it was gloomy.

"Boss, Fish's men have been wiped out, and Tabitha has also been subdued."

A subordinate rushed in, his voice tinged with panic, "The Gotham Gang is stronger than we expected, and... that guy named Qin Yang, he's inhuman!"

Gallagher turned around abruptly, a flash of anger in his eyes: "Qin Yang? Hmph, just a guy who uses speed to play tricks."

He thinks he can turn the world upside down? Notify Father Michael to bring his men to the hotel immediately; I want to meet this Qin Yang myself!

"But, boss, what about Father Michael..."

The subordinate hesitated, a troubled look on his face.

"What's wrong? Tell me!"

Gallerwin roared.

“Father Michael said that the Owl Court will not intervene directly for the time being, and that we should resolve this ourselves.”

The subordinate lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"what?!"

Gallagher smashed the glass in his hand, shards flying everywhere, reflecting his contorted face. "These old bastards, they shirk their responsibilities at the crucial moment! Fine, very well! Since that's the case, I'll show Qin Yang that Gotham isn't a place where he can run wild!"

Just then, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open, a flash of golden light appeared, and Qin Yang's figure appeared in the doorway. (End of Chapter)
