I, V, Gotham Legend

It's just a question, it doesn't matter who you ask.

"Where's Theo Galvin?"

Just now, Batman arrested a gang leader who called himself Shieldman, but unexpectedly discovered that this man had a close relationship with a famous politician in Gotham.

This guy named Galvin is planning to run for mayor, but he is so deeply involved with the gangs that he is obviously one of the cancers that needs to be eradicated.

"You mean the boss? To be honest, I barely saw him today... Is he attending some rich man's party? Just like that Bruce Wayne?"

The staff themselves also expressed doubts.

Batman just nodded slightly to show that he understood, then flashed away.

The ones lying on the ground are mercenaries under Bane. Bane is still in prison now. These men should have been arranged by the escaped second-in-command.

Various things were intricately intertwined, but Batman had a sense of relief in his heart, as if the most troublesome thing had been solved.

There are still many gangs causing trouble that need to be dealt with, and by the way, let’s find out where Gellerman is.

……

Harvey Dent sat listlessly in the conference room of the procuratorate, along with several other prosecutors.

The plan to tailor a more suitable bill for Gotham had been in preparation for a long time. After finalizing the cooperation with Batman and Gordon, he immediately went to the procuratorate with his bill.

Legislation is no easy task. After the procuratorate reads it, it will be handed over to the chief justice for circulation. Once the judge determines that it is feasible, the bill will be handed over to the mayor, who will be responsible for its issuance.

Harvey has summoned his colleagues in the Procuratorate and shown them the law he has carefully prepared, and his colleagues have praised the Dent Act.

So they notified the court, hoping that the Chief Justice would come and take a look in person.

This major legislative event, especially since it is personally led by Harvey Dent, who has been in the limelight recently, deserves the attention of everyone in Gotham.

But four hours had passed since the judge was notified, and the leader had to leave work even if he hadn’t done it yet. But the chief justice still hadn’t come.

Harvey Dent was so anxious that he started scratching his cheeks with both hands. His patience was almost worn out.

Little did they know that this judge might never come.

Tonight will be the most unforgettable night. In addition to the gang fights everywhere, more importantly, people are gradually discovering that many big shots in Gotham are missing.

……

There was a burst of gunfire from a villa in East Gotham, as if a dozen people were shooting.

A few minutes later, Valerie kicked open the door of the villa, wiped the blood off her pretty face with a towel, and left with a gun.

After sending Malone away, Valerie returned to the Court of Owls base in the Tower of Miracles. Although the Pure White Labyrinth was destroyed, there were still a lot of their bases left that V could search.

Thanks to the Court of Owls's advancement in technology, most members' names were recorded in their control center, making it easier for Valerie to investigate.

The list was encrypted and it was difficult to open it with Valerie's intelligence, but fortunately she knew a stronger hacker.

After waking Barbara up with a late-night phone call, Valerie finally got the most-wanted list.

I'm very busy tonight and I don't know if I can finish killing them in one night.

Fortunately, the gang war started by the Court of Owls attracted the attention of the police and Batman. If they had targeted her, it would have been very troublesome for Valerie's rat extermination work.

Valerie thought about walking out of the yard. After sending Malone to Mr. Freeze, she changed to a much more low-key car, and changed to a new one every time she killed a target, so as not to let the people in the court remember and run away in advance when they saw her car.

But just before Valerie walked out of the gate, a green figure rushed out from outside the yard and stabbed Valerie's neck with a reflective dagger.

To most people, this guy's attack speed is very fast, but to Valerie, it's as slow as a cow.

But she was too lazy to dodge, and watched the dagger pressed against her neck and then bounced away.

The attacker was wearing a mask and green clothes. He should be the so-called Claw, nothing more than that.

Seeing that the attack didn't work, Claw tried to distance himself, but his head was already held down by Valerie.

Valerie broke the guy's neck with her backhand and walked out of the yard.

"By the way..." Valerie left Shiva's name on the courtyard wall, and then got into the car with satisfaction.

NO40. Gangster Family

A quaint but luxurious car stopped in front of a church, and two men in black who had been waiting at the church door immediately came over to greet it.

A man in a suit got out of the car, straightened his sleeves, and then pulled a black-haired girl out of the car.

"Stop being upset, Helena, you have to come over this time." The man spoke gently, but the red marks on the face of the girl who was pulled down by him still revealed something.

Helena Bertinelli shook off her uncle's hand, but there was no more resistance in her eyes: "I will go."

"That's more like it. Mr. Titariq was your father's right-hand man, and he is now competing for the Penguin's inheritance. I'm sure he will take care of you for your father's sake..." The uncle spoke to himself with satisfaction, without looking at the contempt in Helena's eyes.

Helena's father was once a well-known gangster boss in Gotham, but at a family dinner, her home was suddenly attacked by a hostile enemy, and her father, mother and brother were slaughtered by the killer in front of Helena.

From then on, she was extremely reluctant to get involved in gang activities, but her uncle Baker, who adopted her since she was a child, still enjoyed such things.

Helena had been admitted to a university in Switzerland and was expected to stay there after graduation and never return to Gotham. However, after Christmas, Uncle Baker called her back on the pretext of wanting to reunite with his family.

After all, he was her adoptive father, so Helena came back. But it was not until she came back that she realized that Uncle Baker wanted to see her not for a reunion.

It’s just that the gang situation in Gotham has changed again, and Uncle Baker just wants to use Helena’s father’s connections to do something big.

But Helena refused to cooperate. She hated the fighting between gangs and hated Gotham even more, because of this matter, she had a conflict with Uncle Baker for several days.

Until today, when a gang war suddenly broke out, Baker heard that Helena's father's old subordinates were also involved, and immediately excitedly pulled Helena here, hoping to get in touch with the potential future super boss.

This time, no matter how much Helena resisted, it was useless. Baker dragged her here directly. After all, he was her adoptive father, so she couldn't do anything.

Baker could still see that Helena was unhappy, so he whispered to comfort her: "This is a church, don't be so angry, God will be unhappy... Your father cares about these things the most, you too, right?"

Helena took a deep breath. She clearly remembered that after the killer tortured her father, he took away his cross necklace as a souvenir. It was ironic to have the holy cross representing salvation attached to a chest stained with blood.

From that day on, she no longer believed in God. She believed that God would bless everyone except her and her family.

Led by two gatekeepers, Helena and Baker were brought into the church, where they greeted the big man who called himself the Latin King.

This group of gangsters actually set up a dining table directly in the church. Both sides of the long and narrow table were filled with people, and the table was filled with all kinds of luxurious delicacies.

Under the cross, the gangsters drank happily.

Baker and Helena were arranged to sit in a very remote location. The Latin King allowed them to dine here for the sake of Helena's father, but it was obvious that they were only qualified to dine there.

Uncle Baker looked very unhappy, but he still tried hard to smile. His deflated look made Helena feel much better.

The gangsters drank and told crude jokes as Christ looked on.

The Latin King Titariq held two beauties in his arms and was amused to burst into laughter from time to time.

At this time, their subordinates should still be fighting outside, perhaps killing people, or perhaps being killed by others.

Helena no longer had any appetite. She looked at the smug look of the Latin King with empty eyes. There was a cross necklace hanging around his neck, which was her father's habit.

My father was not a good man, but he still had some sense. He was afraid of retribution, but in the end he died from it.

The gangs control everything here, controlling Gotham with fear and standing over ordinary people with impunity. They vent violence and devour everything the citizens depend on for survival.

Helena hated everyone in the church equally, including herself.

She wanted to escape from here as soon as possible. Sitting at the same table with these people who exuded the stench of corruption always reminded her that she was also a gangster and had enjoyed the convenience brought to her by this sinful identity.

There was another commotion at the table, and the Latin King laughed once again. Helena didn't listen to the topic they were discussing, but she could guess it almost exactly. It was nothing more than flattery for the sake of comfort.

I really hope someone can beat these guys up...

Helena put down her knife and fork, placed her hands on her thighs, and bit her lower lip.

"Boom..."

Helena seemed to hear some slight noise, but the gangsters at the table didn't seem to notice and they were still chatting noisily.

Helena moved her chair back slightly. She felt a little uneasy here and wanted to leave.

"Helena, where are you going!" Uncle Baker noticed Helena's movements and grabbed Helena's thigh.

"I..." Before Helena could say anything, there was a knock on the table in the main seat, making them look up.

"Miss Bettinelli, I know you look down on me. I just drive for your old father... but you can't offend me in front of everyone!" The Latin King spread out his hands, and the beauties on both sides consciously walked down his thighs.

"To be honest, I allowed you to come here for your father's sake, but that's not a reason for you to leave at will. I don't feel any respect from you." The Latin King even raised his voice, "You don't even want to call me Godfather."

Is this guy imitating a movie plot?

Helena thought this guy was low from the bottom of her heart, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Uncle Baker trembling with fear.

That's right, no matter how stupid a person is, as long as he has power, he can take the lives of the weak.

Although I don't like Uncle Baker very much, he is my adoptive father after all, and it would not be good if I was implicated because of him.

Helena stood up and she wanted to apologize to the Latin King first.

But at this moment, she heard a faint electronic sound in her ear, like an urgent alarm.

A subtle sound interrupted her movements and she looked up in confusion.

"Hey! Are you looking at..." The Latin King's questioning was only halfway through when the glass skylight on the ceiling suddenly shattered, glass fragments fell like snowflakes, and a black figure fell from the sky.

NO41. The sin is so serious

Batman fell from the sky, stepped on the table and broke it, and the luxurious dishes were smashed all over the floor.

The Latin King was still in a daze, and Batman had already kicked him in the head.

The Godfather's nose was bleeding and he was rolling on the ground, and the smooth marble floor was wiped by his luxurious suit.

The surrounding gang members came to their senses, picked up their weapons and rushed towards Batman, trying to subdue the guy who suddenly broke in.

Batman did not run away because of the crowds. He leaned over and jumped off the table, fighting more than ten people head-on.

Helena was so frightened by the sudden change that she stood there in a daze, but Uncle Baker beside her seemed to have found an opportunity to help his niece redeem herself from her crime, so he picked up a chair and rushed forward.

Then, Baker's chair was broken, and he was hit on the chin by an uppercut. He flew half a circle in the air and finally fell heavily to the ground.

Helena watched in shock as Batman moved among the thugs, his waving cape fluttering like a piece of paper, calmly and orderly knocking down every strong man who approached.

The candlestick that fell to the ground hadn't even burned out yet, and all the gangsters in the room had already fallen to the ground.

Helena trembled as she picked up half a stool leg from the ground and pointed it at Batman with trembling hands.

"Don't come over here...I..." Helena wanted to say something, but Batman's fist hanging at his waist was too big, which made her feel scared.

"..." Batman just looked at her and said, "You are not a gangster."

As he spoke, he threw a few black pills at the gangsters on the ground. The black pills turned into a big net and tied up the strong men together.

After doing all this, Batman shot his hook into the sky and seemed to be in a hurry to leave.

Helena was still in a daze. She held the wooden stick, recalling the feeling of fear she had just felt. It was as if she had opened the door to a new world.

The sound of sirens outside the church brought Helena back to consciousness. She looked around at the gangsters tied up on the ground and hesitated for a moment.

I'd better not save my uncle...

……

The morning light rose from the horizon, and light once again covered the ground of Gotham.

After a night of fear, the citizens of Gotham cautiously took to the streets. They had not yet recovered from the fierce gang war last night.

The streets were much quieter than last night. It looked like the battle for territory between the gangs had already produced some preliminary results. It might still be a temporary truce.

The news of temporary peace spread quickly among the citizens of Gotham. They took to the streets and hurried to their units before a new round of war broke out.

The company did not approve my leave, so in order to survive, I had to go to work even if it meant fighting a war.

Even so, everyone feels that the current environment is only seemingly calm, and the citizens of Gotham are still worried about their work and life today.

Until they received the latest newspaper and saw the announcement from the Gotham Police Department.

With the help of the Gotham Police Department and enthusiastic citizens, eleven of the eighteen gang leaders who engaged in large-scale armed fights last night have been brought to justice.

The whereabouts of the remaining seven gang leaders are unknown. They may have already hidden themselves. Commissioner Gordon specifically published an instruction in the newspaper that these criminals would not be tolerated.

The unprecedented efficiency of the police shocked the citizens to the point that they suspected they had traveled to a parallel world.

Although the police department's overly efficient speed made the citizens of Gotham full of suspicion, everyone was still happy to know that they were temporarily safe.

Valerie sat astride a motorcycle, holding a newspaper she had just received in her hand, and stroking her chin with some interest.

Newspapers as a news medium have been basically eliminated in the previous life. Although they do exist, it is difficult to find places that sell them. Mobile phones are more convenient for getting news.
