Chapter 659 Confronting the Book of Death (2k Free Chapter)

Bruce Wayne was unaware of Li Ke's actions or anything else; he only knew that Romani was in trouble. While he wanted to cleanse Gotham of its darkness, he didn't want to do it this way. So, at this moment, Bruce Wayne knew it was time for Batman to step in.

Bruce Wayne quickly changed his identity, his car speeding through the shadows of the bridge, and the next moment he transformed from Bruce Wayne into Batman, dressed in a black bodysuit with only his white chin showing.

But at this moment, Romani had already arrived at one of his favorite restaurants, and was walking towards the top of the building with his lover in his arms.

Batman quickly infiltrated the area, hoping to find information about the Book of the Dead on Romani, but he failed.

Batman did not find the Book of the Dead on Romani, nor did he find anything related to the matter.

But just as Batman was wondering about this, Romani, standing on the rooftop, felt the cold wind blowing, looked at where the Wayne Tower had originally been, raised his glass of red wine, and spoke with great enthusiasm.

"Respect to Gotham!"

With fine wine and beautiful women around him, although he did not intend to create another heir for his family, he still couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.

After all, his position was incredibly lucrative, and Venta's downfall gave Romani and Falcone the opportunity to advance further.

However, in that moment of great pride, he suddenly gulped down the red wine in his glass, but for some reason choked, causing him to stumble and step right on the edge of the steps. In an instant, Romani lost all his balance and rushed straight toward the railing!

Romani's bodyguard tried to save his boss, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch helplessly as his boss let out a scream and fell from the building.

While Batman was stealthily searching for items, he saw Romani falling headfirst down the building with a look of terror on his face!

Almost instinctively, Batman smashed through the glass and rushed out of the building, grabbing Romani as he fell. But just as he was about to unfold his cape to form a parachute, the shattered glass tore through his cape at an impossible angle, rendering his newly unfolded parachute useless and affecting his balance!

"How can this be!"

His cloak was made of a special material that was not only bulletproof and cut-resistant, but also lightweight and durable. Even if you tried to cut it with a sharp blade, it wouldn't be cut so easily. But at this moment, these shards of glass cut through his cloak as easily as singleton lines!

The two fell to the ground instantly. Batman quickly pulled out his grappling hook, but the grappling hook, which he had checked just before leaving the house, suddenly jammed!

Something is wrong!
Even in this extremely critical situation, Batman knew perfectly well that something was definitely wrong. After all, as the owner of Wayne Enterprises, no one would dare give him a substandard product. In other words, this was definitely not a normal physical phenomenon!

"Is it related to the Book of the Dead? I see! Romani wasn't a user, but a victim?"

Batman immediately realized this and remembered the piece of paper he had torn off. Without hesitation, Batman immediately reached into his clothes and quickly scratched the paper with his fingernails!

But the ground was getting closer and closer, and Batman didn't know if his guess was correct, but before everything was too late to turn back, he quickly used his fingernail to carve Romani's name on the note!
The instant Romani's name was successfully drawn with his fingernail, the grappling hook in his hand returned to normal. He swiftly grabbed Romani's body, fired the hook, and swung Romani downwards! Romani, still shaken, looked at this freak in the tight suit and felt a momentary surge of gratitude towards Batman. However, he quickly remembered Batman's past actions in hindering him, the chin that bore an almost 80% resemblance to Bruce Wayne, and the cape made of high-grade materials that could only be manufactured and sold by Wayne Enterprises. After a moment of silence, he fell silent.

"Thank you, Batman, but that doesn't mean I'll be grateful. So you'd better get out of here quickly. I can pretend I didn't see you this time."

His subordinates were also small factions who had suffered losses in Batman's operations, so he couldn't possibly back down to Batman, but this made Bruce Wayne feel disgusted.

"I know, but now you're in big trouble."

The moment he finished speaking, Romani felt a sudden difficulty breathing. He instinctively reached for his heart but couldn't feel any beating. He paused, about to say something, when the loss of blood flow made him dizzy.

At that moment, Batman had already landed him on the ground. He looked at Romani, who was clutching his chest and had collapsed in his arms, and instinctively wanted to find some heart medication, but then realized that he hadn't brought any of those things with him.

The fledgling Batman didn't yet have his all-powerful belt, so he looked at Romani, trying to save him while pondering how to solve the problem.

He didn't want Romani to die because he had written his name on a piece of paper in the Book of the Dead, so after breaking most of Romani's ribs and realizing that CPR alone wouldn't be enough to revive him, Batman took out the piece of paper with Romani's name on it and used his finger to write what he hadn't had time to write before.

Romani died the death he was destined to die.

The moment those words appeared, Romani's heart regained its strength, but he was already unable to move, staring in astonishment at Batman's act of saving him simply by scribbling on a piece of paper.

Romani tried to say something, but the next moment, Batman punched him in the head, knocking him unconscious. Batman then dialed the police and placed the evidence he had just found about Romani next to him.

The Gotham police arrived quickly this time, but when they got there, all they saw was Romani being protected by the mob. They didn't even bother to look at him and left immediately. Batman, after a disappointed sigh, quickly returned to the Batcave to change into new gear and prepare for his mission.

Because in that very short time, most of the remaining high-ranking gangsters in Gotham began to die!
The new person who obtained the Book of the Dead began to use it recklessly!

Batman increasingly regretted his actions in destroying it.

What was Li Ke doing at this time?

Death had departed silently, leaving with a slight limp. Li Ke, sporting a head full of strawberries, pondered how to explain things to his cat. But just as he pushed open the door—

A female agent dressed in a bunny girl-style bodysuit and purple pantyhose happened to pass by.
