I, V, Gotham Legend

"Call the bomb disposal team up...your communications should not be affected by the EMP." After walking to the side of the helicopter and taking a few looks, Batman turned around and said to Gordon.

Gordon nodded, took out his walkie-talkie, issued orders, and slowly approached the helicopter to observe the situation.

Seeing Gordon's busy back, Batman looked up at the moon again, then turned around and jumped off the roof.

...

In the freezing laboratory, Valerie and a group of people gathered together and watched the live broadcast on TV.

Since it was connected to a hospital signal, the TV had no encryption measures and was naturally hacked.

"It looks like there were no casualties," Malone said while watching TV.

The helicopter in the picture turned into a distorted screen again before it hit the building, probably because it was intercepted by something halfway.

"This guy really has a backup plan for everything he does." Valerie could see that the helicopter must have been sniped by the Batmobile that was hidden somewhere.

Not long after Anazi made his grand statement, the first live broadcast of the explosion turned out to be a failure that was obvious to everyone. The citizens of Gotham, who were almost in chaos again, must have felt reassured.

"Okay, it's time for us to take action." Valerie stood up from the sofa.

"What? Are you going to deal with Anazi too?" Malone asked in surprise.

"And the Riddler." Valerie nodded.

"Riddler?" Helena stood behind the sofa and tilted her head in surprise.

"Did you see any clues about the Riddler from this picture?" Malone was also surprised. Apart from the green question mark painted on the robot arm that was flying the plane, he really couldn't see any elements of the Riddler in this picture.

"Didn't you hear it?" Valerie tilted her head in surprise. "That guy was telling riddles. It was quite noisy along with Anazi's speech."

"Hear?" Now, everyone looked at Valerie.

Although the live broadcast just now was quite noisy, it was not so noisy that one could not hear human voices.

"Did you hear it?" Malone thought it was his own problem, but it seemed that the other two people didn't hear it either, so it could only be Valerie's own problem.

"How is that possible? [People use me to represent eternity, but I can't get sober.]" Valerie even memorized it.

Marlon and Helena still looked at each other, but Victor showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

He remembered that a few days ago, before attacking Wayne Building, he experienced Mewtwo recorded from Valerie's first-person perspective, and he remembered hearing a very harsh noise at that time.

Originally he thought it might be a problem with the equipment or the technology was not mature enough, but after a few days of cooperation, he clearly understood how amazing Valerie's manual skills were.

Now that I think about it, Mewtwo can fully experience everything that the recorder is experiencing, so maybe those noises are the sounds that Valerie has been hearing all along.

Low-decibel noise may seem non-existent once you get used to it, but it will still affect your physical and mental health.

"Can you hear some sounds that ordinary people can't hear?" Mr. Freeze asked seriously.

"Hmm?" Valerie tilted her head. She didn't know how Mr. Freeze came up with this idea.

"Try using that headband thing of yours, maybe we can find out what you heard." Mr. Freeze pointed to the computer on Valerie's desk.

"Are you referring to Mewtwo? We don't have time for this now... I see..." Valerie probably understood. "You mean, this is a sound that only I can hear? I have some special superpowers!"

"..." Helena wanted to say something, but after thinking it over, she shut her mouth obediently.

She felt that Valerie was special from head to toe, inside and out.

"Let's go first. This riddle should hint at what the Riddler has planned." Knowing that she was the only one who could hear the important clues, Valerie became very proud.

“…I wish you a safe journey.” Ma Long gave his sincere blessing.

Mr. Freeze lost interest and returned to his workbench, ready to get back to his research.

"Old Wei!" Valerie called him.

Victor turned around and looked at Valerie in silence.

"We are going to fight the criminals who are destroying Gotham. Won't you say some parting wishes?" Valerie said with a smile.

"..." Victor stared at Valerie for a while as if she was a fool. They didn't usually have this kind of relationship. The relationship between the two was said to be partners, but in fact, it was more like a stiff relationship between colleagues.

But looking at Valerie's smiling face and thinking of the care he had received during their time together in recent days, Mr. Freeze closed his eyes.

"Everything goes well..." It was the first time he said blessings to others after Nora was frozen, so this sentence sounded awkward, like an apology.

"Yeah, that's it. Open up slowly. We are friends." Valerie waved her hand and then looked at Helena. "It's time to go. Our first action."

NO54. Abrupt update

Helena followed Valerie down the corridor and reopened the wall of the secret room.

She was originally curious about how to leave here, and was even prepared to climb out with an ice pick.

Unexpectedly, when the door of the secret room was opened, a car that I had never seen before was floating in front of me.

Helena was surprised for the nth time. This high-tech thing didn't look like something from the 21st century.

"You haven't seen it before?" Valerie showed off for a moment, then climbed into the car first, and Helena followed very solemnly.

Although this hovercraft is designed based on a game prototype, its autonomous driving technology is still immature, so you still have to drive it yourself if you want to reach a specific destination.

"Here you go." Valerie pulled a bag from her pocket.

Helena took the bag curiously, opened it with surprise, and found that inside was the combat suit she had just designed.

It had only been less than two hours since she had drawn the blueprints, and V had already produced them? She had no recollection of V ever making clothes.

Valerie pressed a few times on the car's floorboards, the sound of the car's heater loud enough to be heard.

"That room is not suitable, so you can change your clothes here." The hovercraft slowly rose, and Valerie said while looking out the window.

"Thank you, V." Helena felt warm in her heart and she quickly changed her clothes.

Valerie stared at the car window in front of her, and through the reflection, she watched Helena changing her clothes in a hurry without any emotion.

Valerie usually changes her clothes quickly through the game panel. She can change her clothes just by holding the clothes and blinking.

She looked at Helena's fair skin with contempt.

Oh, for mortals, changing clothes is so difficult.

After a series of clanging and banging, Helena finally put on her battle suit. She admired her cool look through the car's built-in rearview mirror.

Although Valerie complained that the battle suit she prepared was too bat-flavored, she didn't make any major changes, which made Helena very embarrassed.

"I'm done changing." Helena said a little embarrassedly.

"Very handsome." Valerie turned around and praised.

Helena's shame grew stronger, so she had to skip the topic: "Where are we going to find the riddle?"

Valerie froze, she was too busy pretending to think about it.

She had to pretend: "What do you think? What is eternal and yet can't wake up?"

She was talking about the riddle she had just heard, and she extracted the key words.

"..." Helena thought for a moment, "Death?"

"That makes sense!" Valerie suddenly realized, "Is the answer to the riddle the morgue? Or the cemetery?"

"It could also be a church." Helena threw out another location. "Calling to be eternal and unconscious could also refer to religion, and the church could be a cemetery."

"You're such a clever little girl!" Valerie clapped her hands together. Helena was more useful than she thought.

"Well... I will make you satisfied!" Helena was very happy to be praised.

The hovercraft glided across Gotham's chaotic night sky, leaving a streak of silver light, adding a touch of complexity to the restless night.

...

On the clock tower opposite Gotham City Hall, Batman squatted on the huge clock, looking indifferently at the busy crowd in the building in the distance.

After learning that Anazzi was going to attack the Gotham government and banks, Gordon immediately called the police to evacuate the crowd.

Anazi's methods were extraordinary and were not the work of a group of people who had almost no organization before today. This was obviously related to the so-called allies behind him. He was just a pawn in the game between Nygma and Batman.

[Master Bruce, I have captured a unique and regular infrasound wave in your sonar. It will take some time to decipher it.] Alfred's voice came from Batman's communication.

Sonar refers to the pointed ears on Batman's helmet. This is not just a decoration. In addition to communication, it is also the receiving antenna of the detective's visual sonar.

Batman hadn't expected a surprise, something unusual but surprisingly conspicuous to him, very much like Nygma: "Well done, Alfred, keep a close eye."

After hanging up the communication, Batman looked at the building opposite with a serious expression.

There were no helicopters around, and due to the police blockade, even large trucks couldn't get close.

The police station's bomb disposal team has already entered, but no bombs were found either inside the building or in the sewers.

In comparison, things were going smoothly at Gotham Bank. Perhaps because it had been attacked once, the staff were evacuated quickly, and the police there successfully found the bomb on the rooftop of the bank. It was said that there were also the bodies of several Gotham bigwigs.

With the capabilities of Anazzi's team, it would be difficult to install explosives inside the government without anyone noticing. Batman originally planned to search outside the government, but he didn't get any clues.

How could a group of citizens with no political background blow up a government building without anyone noticing?

Batman was thinking, and he inexplicably recalled the Miss V maze he experienced at home a few days ago.

He had avoided all the obvious traps at first, but in the end he still fell into the water bed because of carelessness.

Why did you let your guard down? Did you think V wouldn't place two traps in the same place? Or did you think it wouldn't be a big deal if it was just a bed?

Batman realized something.

"Gordon, search for the gifts the government has received in recent days. Especially those donated by citizens." Batman hacked into Gordon's intercom and said.

"Gifts? The government collects so many bribes every day, and such things are not recorded. How do we know which one to look for?" Gordon was very embarrassed.

Just as Batman was about to say something else, the large screens around him went dark again and the piercing busy tone echoed again.

Images of government buildings appeared on the big screen.

"It's too late! Get your men out quickly!" That was all Batman could say.

Every time Anazi starts live broadcasting, it means that the explosion is not far away.

Gordon also realized the seriousness of the problem, and the police station's communications were filled with noise for a while.

"The existence of the government is meaningless. They are the most direct embodiment of exploitation and oppression, disguising themselves with fancy laws and justice." Anazi's speech sounded again. The screen should be the surrounding surveillance video, and the government building was standing.

There are many ways for the Gotham government to accept bribes. The more mainstream one is that the briber gives the person who wants the bribe something that does not look valuable but is large in size, such as flowers or calendars. From the outside, these items are obviously not bribes. They are just a thank-you gift from the citizens of Gotham to the hard-working civil servants.

But in fact, the real gift is hidden in the small gift, which may be a famous watch or money.

After taking the bribes, civil servants will donate the gifts to their superiors as a symbol of their popularity, and may even receive a bonus.

Of course, the government leaders knew what these gifts were, and it was all just an unspoken rule. They would throw these useless gifts into the basement and store them together.

Anazi's organization has delivered a huge number of small gifts to the government in two months. In addition to the more conspicuous bribes, these small gifts contain explosives of various equivalents.

With the help of an insider, the explosive gifts were gathered in the same basement and were never cleaned up.

And now, it's finally time to close the net.

"The government is about to fall under its own corruption!"

NO55. Riddle

The hovercraft stopped in front of a church. Valerie and Helena leaned against the window and looked at the live broadcast not far away.

The blast had engulfed the chassis of the government building. This level of explosives was not enough to destroy the entire building, but it seemed to have successfully damaged the foundation, and the entire building collapsed like a poker tower.

"The government can only bring endless disasters. We citizens should unite together, benefit each other, and live happily and friendly in a big family." After Anazi finished his final speech, the whole screen was cut off again.

"Did you hear the riddle?" After listening to Anazi's speech, Helena turned to Valerie and asked.

Valerie nodded. "That sounds weird..."

...

"I stand tall and proud, yet I also have complaints and cries. I cannot break anything, but nothing can tear me apart. Who am I?" Alfred's voice reached Batman's ears.

"Rain." Batman answered almost immediately.

"What do you think the Riddler wants to do?" Alfred was confused.
