“Don’s comics?”
Clark frowned and couldn’t help but flip through the comics in his hand.
While scrolling, he suddenly came back to his senses and quickly asked Lex.
“Wait, what did you just say?
How many children do I have?
Are there only two? “
“Haha, how many more children do you want?
But having said that, it is indeed a comic. The private lives of you so-called superheroes in comics are really eye-opening to me.
I originally wanted to see Bruce and Lady Selina having fun in the comics.
I even want to see what that guy Tang will do, haha~
But now, forget it, we comic editors have taken the matching work to the extreme.
Is there any named female character who hasn’t had an affair with you two? “
At this point, Lex couldn’t help but curl his lips.
On the side, Bruce was holding a copy of his own comic in his hand and spoke to Lex without raising his head.
“So are you envious? Envious of what? Envious that we haven’t even met the characters in the comics?”
As he spoke, Bruce frowned sadly.
I saw him twisting the pages in his hands and continuing.
“Originally, I thought that Our World was some kind of personal publication of Don, and that this publication should come to at least the middle and late stages of the comic specials after Don completely rules Gotham.
How much content can be included in a special series? Although Tang has only been active for more than a month, what he has done can already fill many comics.
But when I actually read the comics of our world, I suddenly discovered that the story that I thought had developed to the middle and late stages actually didn’t seem to have even crossed over to the early stages! “
Having said this, Bruce put down the comic and sighed melancholy.
“Let’s not even mention the question of whether there are any comics by Tang.
Let’s just say what we’ve seen so far…our own comics.
All our comic stories seem to start when I return to Gotham City and Clark, you choose to become Superman!
Yes, these two things only represent the beginning of the story.
But now, hell, our story has just begun!
I just returned to Gotham and chose to be Batman, and Clark you haven’t even taken on the mantle of Superman yet, you can’t even fly!
I’m sorry you said before that you are just a stronger ordinary person who can’t even fly.
It turns out that flying, heat vision and steel body are all your signature abilities!
According to the comic description, my story has just begun, and your story hasn’t even begun yet!
So… what the hell….
What kind of enemies should we encounter next to be worthy of our current lineup! “
Having said this, Bruce narrowed his eyes melancholy. He was really worried about the future of Gotham.
Because the abilities of the villains in a comic are linked to the strength of the protagonist in the comic!
Although they haven’t found Tang’s comics yet, Tang’s strength is so strong, so powerful!
So, what kind of villain is worthy of becoming the villain in their story?
While Bruce was thinking, Clark quickly looked around.
The next moment, he rushed to a row of bookshelves and picked up a comic.
After showing the cover to Bruce and Lex, Clark clicked on the person on the cover.
“DC comics are really many, and they are very messy, even more messy than Marvel comics, isn’t it?
Perhaps only God knows which independent publication Don is the star of.
It’s not even certain that Tang’s comics haven’t been drawn yet, because the only ones we can see currently are DC comics in the Marvel world.
But as for Tang and our enemies… I think we should have no shortage of enemies! “
As he spoke, Clark opened the Lucifer comic in his hand and read it.
After two glances, Clark was slightly stunned, then closed the comic and said with a wry smile.
“Well, I made a mistake. It turns out that Lucifer is the protagonist. I thought this Lucifer comic was a personal publication with him as the villain.
Thinking about it this way, tsk tsk, even Lucifer is just the protagonist. He even has to face his own villains and troubles.
It seems like, hell, our world is too dangerous! “
“Yes, it is too dangerous, but the more dangerous it is, the more I feel… the possibility of me leading all mankind on the path of evolution increases!”
Lex took over Clark’s words excitedly, then put down the comic and said.
“We should go back, we can’t waste time here anymore.
When we return here tomorrow, we will pack up a batch of comics and buy the DC Comics here. “
“Indeed, after all, comics are always just reference, and the development of reality is far more meaningful than the plot of the comics.”
Bruce agreed with Lex’s statement, and then waved to the red-eared white-haired Ciri in the far corner.
“Miss Xili, if it’s convenient for you, you can take us back.”
After saying hello, Bruce waited silently for Ciri’s response.
Unexpectedly, Xili seemed not to hear it and was still curled up in the corner looking at something.
Seeing this, Bruce let out a breath and continued shouting.
“Miss Shirley?”
“Huh? Ahhhh?”
Shirley was startled, quickly closed the comic in her hand, and hurriedly stuffed the comic back on the bookshelf.
only……
Even though he was far away, Bruce saw the cover of the comic as it passed by.
So he clearly saw that in the comic book that was inexplicably pink, he, Batman, was hugging Superman in a particularly coquettish posture…
“Ahem, um…what do you want from me?
Are we going back?
No problem, don’t worry, I will send you back safely.
Let’s leave now, get ready. “
Ciri came to the three of them with a blushing face and grabbed their sleeves.
A moment later, the celestial spheres converged, and the four of them reappeared in the Gotham manor after experiencing the shock of time and space.
As soon as the four of them landed, Xili let go of everyone with a red face, and then said to everyone.
“What the hell, it’s quite late, I’m going back to rest.
You probably don’t need my help tonight, definitely not.
My sleep quality is very good. I won’t wake up if I scream. I’m going back to sleep. Good night, guys~”
Ciri patted her butt and left, rushing into the castle without looking back.
Then……
Buzz!
The trio standing in the manor saw the blue light of the celestial sphere coming from the castle again.
Just as the blue light disappeared, Lex couldn’t help swallowing and asked.
“My eyesight is probably not as good as yours, so, did you just see that comic?
That’s…you two…huh? “
“Ahem!!!”
Before Lex could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Bruce’s cough.
“Stop talking nonsense, Lex!”
I saw Bruce speaking to Lex with a stern face.
“Tony is still not working properly in the comic shop in Gotham, so the two of us must seize the time and build a smart armor manufacturing platform as soon as possible.
I prepared C-type nutrient solution there, which was more effective than before. We both only needed two hours of sleep to regain our strength.
Although the Marvel world is not our own world, the citizens there still should not be wantonly destroyed by war, conspiracy, or the malicious intent of a certain editor.
Before ten o’clock tomorrow morning, we will strive to build more than thirty smart armors.
We don’t necessarily have to be heroes, but since we are determined to do something good that makes us feel happy, we must seize the time and don’t let this good thing turn bad! “
At this point, Bruce took Lex away, and the two went back to their lab to work around.
Clark returned to his house feeling uneasy. After saying hello to his mother, he lay down on the bed and planned to go to sleep.
The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.
only……
Even if he closed his eyes, ghost comic covers would occasionally flash before his eyes.
“vomit!”
So that night, Martha, who slept very late because of watching TV dramas, kept wondering whether her son had eaten something wrong.
He kept retching until after one o’clock in the middle of the night, and finally fell asleep.
Night is not the end of the city of Gotham.
In other words, the night in Gotham is just the beginning of the life of another group of people.
When Downton and Selina finished playing poker, they fell asleep like two octopuses entangled together.
boom!
A small explosion exploded in a medium-sized bank in Gotham City.
When the gunpowder smoke dissipated, the fishy smell emanating from several corpses, together with the money flying in the sky, spread to the entire street with the evening breeze in Gotham.
The smell of blood made wild cats, dogs and other animals gather here unconsciously, and the banknotes also attracted the attention of all the homeless people nearby.
In order to compete for a piece of fresh… fat and thin flesh, especially the flesh full of salt, the wild dogs fought together, which scared the wild cats and roared crazily, which sounded particularly sad.
In contrast, homeless people really live up to their status as humans, and the noise they make is much louder than the barking of cats and dogs.
Gunshots, shouts, wailing, begging for mercy.
Many voices were noisy together, accompanied by the smell of banknotes and ink, spreading out along the Gotham night.
This news was conveyed layer by layer, and finally reached the ears of the Romans who had just woken up around six o’clock in the morning.
Carmine Falcone is older, he sleeps very lightly, and he wakes up very early.
Before six o’clock, he had already gotten up.
Just as he was carefully playing with the hundreds of potted flowers he had recently raised in the club, Victor Zass came to him with his bloody mouth grinning.
“Carmine.”
Victor said to the Roman with a sneer.
“How about life after retirement and being re-employed? It should be good. You seem to be in good spirits.”
“Victor, of course I am in good spirits, because for a person like me, whatever I have gained before, I don’t want to lose them again.
I have already lost this city once, and I even almost lost myself, so when I return from hell and return to this real city of hell.
Of course I will seize every moment to fill my heart, which has become extremely empty after less than a month since I left Gotham. “
As he spoke, Carmine put down the scissors and picked up a watering can to sprinkle water on a few pots of plants that needed extra water.
Looking at Carmine who was quietly watering the flowers, Victor shrugged and smiled.
“It’s nice not to have to call you boss anymore, and besides, it’s even better to be able to work with you again.
That guy Ozwald is a little clever, especially in business, but only you understand the dark night of Gotham better than he does, and you also understand the gang ecosystem you have created over the past thirty years better than he does.
Things that require a lot of effort from Ozwald, you can do it by watering the flowers in the club. Without the constraints from the Court of Owls and other upper-class people, I am very happy to see you show off your abilities to the fullest. .
Just because you are the only emperor of Gotham for the past thirty years, Carmine, I admire your art of ruling Gotham’s underworld extremely.
If possible, I really want to appreciate it for the rest of my life and try to learn something from you.
But it’s a pity, old man, that peace you wanted was broken last night! “
After finishing his words, Victor handed the tablet in his hand to Carmine.
Taking the tablet and taking a look at it, Carmine stared expressionlessly at the alley filled with nearly eighty corpses lying on the tablet, and nearly a million scattered banknotes floating around.
“This was no ordinary robbery.”
Carmine said slowly.
“Because ordinary robbers would not dare to approach Gotham at this time.
Before I returned, Don’s methods were simple and brutal, Ozwald’s style was cautious and careful, and Gotham was run very tightly by them.
Although the business expansion of the Revenant Party has slowed down after Ozwald focused on running for mayor, the city’s black network still maintains a crime rate close to zero compared to the past.
The death of the upper class and the blood of Arkham have been reminding everyone that this city has ushered in a bloody new king.
Before they are familiar with the style of the new king Tang, there may be some unsophisticated gangsters who will do something impulsive, but if they are just impulsive gangsters, they will not be able to do what you showed me. “
Having said this, Carmine thought for a moment and asked softly.
“If I guess correctly, Victor, the person who staged this bank robbery, has been arrested, right?”
“Your guess is right. I know you are the person who knows this city best!”
Victor nodded quickly and continued.
“There were a total of six people involved in the robbery. At about four o’clock in the morning, they were blocked in an apartment at No. 23 Sherwood Street by me.
Of course, what I blocked was just six corpses that were killing each other. They seemed to have divided the spoils unevenly and died together in a civil strife.
It sounds funny, but the amount of money found in the apartment corresponds perfectly to the portion of the bank’s losses.
Logically speaking, regardless of the way this group of robbers robbed the bank, when their bodies appeared together with the money, the case should have been concluded.
Everyone is happy, right? The bank recovered the deposit, and the robbers also paid the price for not paying us the protection fee.
But my gut tells me it’s not that simple.
The six people involved in the robbery had not committed any criminal acts together before.
Two of them had never even fired a gun.
It was such a ragtag group of people, but on the night they robbed the bank, they showed professional qualities comparable to those of the special forces.
But it happened that a group of people who were so technically professional were both injured in an inexplicable civil strife, and no one was left behind.
Isn’t this strange? “
