The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning
Chapter 270 Billionaire
Are you sure you don't need any further assistance?
Li Zhen looked at Jason with some surprise, because after Jason came out of the Batcave and told her about the Joker incident, he said that he needed to "investigate the case" alone.
He had expected Jason to make excuses such as, "I have some personal grudges with the Joker that I need to settle," or "From here on, this should be pure Gotham stuff."
Unexpectedly, Jason actually gave him a serious analysis of why he shouldn't get involved.
"You're too impulsive."
"Are you serious?"
Li Zhen's arms, which were clasped to her chest, trembled slightly, and she almost couldn't hold on.
"Yes, the Amodro virus cured the madness in my brain caused by the Lhasa River water, which has allowed me to confront some of my past mistakes these days."
Perhaps this isn't Jason's own universe after all, or perhaps it's due to Batman's disappearance, but when Jason is interacting normally with people, he's not as cold and unapproachable as he was in the original comics.
"The worst thing you can do when dealing with a guy like the Joker is to act too hastily. Although I don't know why you didn't bring Lazarus's madness, your personality isn't suited for this kind of Gotham-specific work."
"I bet you don't take the Joker seriously. But once you're with me, from the first moment you see him, you'll rush over and kill him."
Li Zhen raised an eyebrow, then pulled one of her crossed arms out and held her hand outstretched. "Shouldn't you? Don't tell me you don't want to kill him."
"He deserves to die!"
Jason's tone rose noticeably for a moment, but quickly softened again.
"But at least until we confirm Wilson's safety—I mean safety in every sense of the word."
Lee Jung-bon believed he could understand this part.
"What about the question of whether the dark ritual still exists on Wilson?"
Jason glanced at Li Zhen, seemed to hesitate slightly, but finally blurted it out.
"For you, the easiest way is probably not just to kill the Joker instantly, but I'm afraid you'll also make a move the moment you see Wilson."
Li Zhen was so angry she laughed.
The radical party is afraid I'm too radical, right?
He shook his head and was about to get up and fly away when Jason, to his surprise, shamelessly called him back.
"Of course, if you want to help, I guess it might be in terms of money..." Li Zhen was dumbfounded, pointed in the direction of the bat cave, and then pointed to herself.
The meaning in their eyes is self-evident.
"What? You think hanging out with Batman will make you rich?"
Jason snorted coldly, showing none of the servility one would expect when borrowing money.
"Do you know how much pocket money Batman gives a Robin on average each week?"
"Uh, 100,000?"
"Five dollars! And you also have to help the butler clean the entire manor castle and the bat cave below."
Jason reached into the pocket of his combat pants, pulled it out, shook it, and then stuffed it back in.
"When the Dark Side Club was recruiting me under its guise, the commissions they paid were almost all gone. Now, I can't even afford the normal annual membership fees for the overseas accounts I've registered privately."
"Then why do you think I'm very wealthy?"
"The night you were confirmed dead, Batman transferred the full amount he had promised you to your account."
"Heh, what use is this if I really die?" Li Zhen subconsciously touched her pocket, then realized that she didn't have a cell phone in her white hooded outfit.
Jason's pupils became somewhat vacant, as if his gaze had bypassed Li Zhen and was looking at something else.
After a long pause, he slightly moved his Adam's apple.
"I guess he doesn't want to repeat what happened to me back then. The butler said it was a huge sum of money, so big that it caused problems with the operation of Wayne Corporation. So that means he wants to save you one hundred percent."
Li Zhen's eyebrows twitched slightly. Then he reached his hand out from the shadows beneath his cloak and whispered to Rachel, asking for her phone.
When Li Zhen received her first paycheck from Green Arrow, she had a private Earth account, which she shared with Rachel.
He then took out his phone, removed the glove from one hand, clicked on the bank account webpage, and somewhat awkwardly typed in the password.
I don't know if it's because there's a signal jammer near the bat cave, but the webpage is loading very slowly, and the circle icon is also choppy.
"Single digit, two digits... six digits..."
As she continued counting, Li Zhen's eyes widened, and her voice began to tremble as she neared the end.
"Eight, nine..."
Jason, who was listening below, was stunned. He looked up and stared blankly at Li Zhen's phone. He hadn't expected that the figure the butler had mentioned would be so exaggerated.
Wayne Group is indeed a capital firm, but that doesn't mean it can unleash such a massive cash flow at once without suffering significant losses.
Li Zhen abruptly removed her mask, stared at the final number, and rubbed her eyelids violently.
"Are you kidding me? What kind of bank could support such a huge transfer?"
Li Zhen's voice had become somewhat hollow.
Jason, on the other hand, was practically grinding his teeth to powder, but he still managed to answer the question.
"I suspect there might be some technical assistance from SteelBone. Right now, you're already capable of stirring up quite a financial storm with just a few gestures."
Li Zhen put down his phone in a daze. The memory of earning three or four thousand a month in his previous life was already somewhat blurry and distant, and Witrum would not pay him a salary.
It's hard to describe that feeling; it's more like feeling that your life from now on will be somewhat meaningless.
Too much.
What should I do?
Unexpectedly, all the expenses seemed so insignificant. The two stood there in silence until Li Zhen suddenly snapped out of her daze at a certain point.
"So, if I touch the money in the account, he can either pinpoint Rachel's location or guess that I might still be alive?"
Jason grunted, not in the mood to respond.
He even suspected that there might be a genetic test report in some hidden folder on Batman's computer that revealed Li Zhen to be Batman's biological son.
Even the guy we saw in the Arabian Peninsula who was supposedly Batman's son didn't get this treatment.
"Alright, alright, considering the external enemies at hand, the clown's appearance, and all this messy stuff happening one after another, I can retract some of my vengeful thoughts."
After trying out the account and confirming that she could control the funds, Li Zhen asked Jason for his account name.
How much do you want?
"two……"
"Twenty million? That's in the past."
Li Zhen then ignored Jason, who was still standing there in a daze, and got up and flew into the night sky.
As we flew, I kept muttering to myself, almost sleepwalking. "Maybe I should go on vacation? What should a real Earth vacation be like? Let me think... sunshine, beaches..."
Jason didn't lower his head stiffly until Li Zhenyuan left, and dryly uttered the remaining numbers.
"Two hundred thousand... This bastard is treating money like it's nothing!"
