In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 180 Dark Universe
Shimizu and Lex Luthor have a pretty good collaboration.

The deal was negotiated for more than a day. During this time, Shimizu even called Cisco to come over. A few seconds after he picked up the phone, Cisco was sent to Metropolis by Barry using the speed force.

The main reason is that Cisco also helped a lot in this process, and he should be given the benefits he deserves. It would be best to use benefits to tie down this science and engineering genius.

The parties agreed to jointly invest to establish TSL New Energy Company, with Shimizu and Lex Luthor investing and providing technical support, and Victor and Cisco investing in technology.

Shimizu and Luther own 45% and 30% of the shares respectively, and the remaining 25% is held by Victor with 13% and Cisco with 12%.

The place of registration is in the metropolis.

At least it's much safer here than Gotham.

The registered capital was US$500 million, with Shimizu contributing US$300 million and Luther contributing US$200 million.

Even now, after a long period of operation, Shimizu's net worth is close to 2 billion US dollars. Taking out 300 million in one go is almost most of the cash flow on hand.

However, in order to gain a dominant position in equity and obtain the position of chairman, Qingshui gritted his teeth and gave it up.

The next step is to set up a research and development center in the metropolis and other follow-up matters, with Victor in charge.

He will serve as TSL's CTO, or chief technology officer, and will be responsible for key R&D matters.

From now on, Victor will mainly live in the metropolis.

The air and other environmental conditions here are much better than those in Gotham, and the safety conditions are several levels higher than those in Gotham, making it more suitable for Nora to recuperate.

Qingshui also really needs a confidant who has high enough scientific research quality and whom he trusts enough to help him watch over him.

Mr. Freeze has good combat power, but the most essential part of his cryogenic technology has been mastered by himself and integrated into the puppet. Coupled with the Grandi puppet and the secondary Titan enhanced man, the Hogg Alliance is not particularly lacking in high- and medium-end combat power.

What's more, if a scientist of Victor Fritz's level is used as a thug, it would be a real waste of talent.

Cisco Ramon was brought back to Midtown by Barry on the night the contract was signed, and Shimizu also followed him back to Gotham.

Although the shares held by Cisco are theoretically worth more than half a billion, they cannot be converted into real wealth before TSL goes public.

However, considering the pure and kind character of this superhero, even if he becomes a billionaire, he will probably still fully support Barry and work in the hero industry.

Back in Gotham, it was already late at night.

It was a rare sunny day. The night sky was bright and dotted with stars. The usually thick dark clouds seemed to have dissipated for the most part this night.

Although he was in Metropolis, Shimizu was still receiving information from Gotham through the Internet a few days ago.

Gotham seems to be calm these days. The only minor incident is a small earthquake. The tremor was noticeable in the center of Gotham City, but there were no casualties. Only part of the underground sewer collapsed.

Before Qingshui had time to rest, the accountant came over hurriedly.

"Boss, Harvey Dent visits."

"Visit? Are you sure he didn't just make a phone call or something, but showed up in person to visit?"

Qingshui asked curiously to the accountant who was reporting the news.

Now that the Penguin is dead, how dare Harvey Dent come to see him in person?
Even though the Two-Face Gang is now in a vassal relationship with the Hogg Alliance, if Shimizu kills Harvey Dent directly here, then the Two-Face Gang can be easily destroyed or annexed.

"His schizophrenia seems to have gotten worse, and he seems to have gotten into some big trouble, so he came here."

Qingshui raised his eyebrows.

If something happens, wouldn't it be much safer for Harvey Dent to go to Batman than to him? At least Batman would definitely not kill him, at most he would beat him up and then lock him up in Arkham Asylum.

"Go and have a look."

Qingshui stood up and walked towards the reception room.

The place is now being guarded by more than a dozen men with guns, two of whom have Titan III enhancement potions in their pockets. Once an accident occurs, as long as there are two secondary Titan enhancement men, it will be enough to deal with it unless a relatively strong extraordinary combat force appears.

When Qingshui saw Harvey Dent, he was covering his head with a look of pain and saying something to his reflection in the floor-to-ceiling window.

"I can't find the bat!"

"I've told you all! I can't find him. I know there's danger, but maybe Batman is also caught up in this matter, or something else. I've robbed civilians several times this morning, and Batman still hasn't shown up!"

"This guy should be able to solve this problem. He has fought against bats more than once and never lost. I know you don't have this guy, but what does this have to do with me!"

Harvey Dent's eyes were bloodshot and he yelled at his reflection in the glass in a somewhat manic manner.

The mirror image simply repeated Harvey Dent's actions silently without saying a word.

After Harvey Dent finished yelling, he took a few breaths, then heard footsteps and turned around.

"You are finally back."

Harvey Dent said in a relieved tone.

"You have a new personality?"

Qingshui waved his hand, and the men around him quickly retreated. After the accountant poured two glasses of wine for the two people on the table, he also walked out and closed the door considerately.

"No, that's not a new personality. I'm perfectly normal."

Harvey Dent, who suffers from severe schizophrenia, said so.

"That was another me, a ghost-like me. He found me and told me that something big was going to happen. It was just that I had a dual personality, so I could receive the signal from the other me."

"It's amazing, tell me about it?"

Shimizu asked as he brought a glass of red wine to Harvey Dent.

The latter drank the wine in one gulp and replied:

"That was me in another world, a world that was about to be destroyed and already dark. He found me and told me that the door connecting the two worlds has been opened. The existence that pulled that world into darkness is about to pull this world into darkness as well."

Qingshui's eyes gradually became solemn.

Could it be that……

At the same time, on the top floor of a bar in Gotham.

Arnold Wesker, a bald old man in a suit, was sitting on the ground with a look of fear on his face. The suit puppet in his hand had been disassembled to the point that only a head was left.

He is another super criminal with multiple personalities in Gotham, a ventriloquist. The puppet in his hand is called Scarface. Arnold Wesker is timid and cowardly, while Scarface is fierce and brutal. The combination of the two makes up the Gotham villain Ventriloquist.

The existence that makes them afraid is, of course, Batman.
