Eleven. Gotham-Night Banquet---Adding more for the QAQ Hui brothers [Five/14]

Evening is the most beautiful scenery of the day. It is the buffer that connects the day and night. The last ray of light is expressed in the sky in such a magnificent atmosphere. It is like a picture scroll carefully made by the creator. No matter how busy you are, you will be tired. , Can also feel the beauty from the heart.

But this beauty is very short-lived. The girls in beautiful skirts chirping into the devil’s gang’s luxury car, and Mei, who doesn’t like wearing skirts, wore a fitted lady's suit. She was mainly responsible for driving. Under the urging of Catherine, This car drove out of the Cyber ​​Villa, carrying a group of little girls and the hostess Selena of the Cyber ​​Villa, and the senior housemaid Felicity, who stayed at home for almost 24 hours and never went out, and headed towards Gotham. Drive to the hotel in the city center.

Old friend Jim Gordon wants to hold a birthday party in advance for his sons and daughters who have returned. This is a rare banquet that they don't want to miss.

But these girls who are talking about fashion and life trivial matters obviously don’t know that in another place, their dearest backbone is fighting desperately and violently. Of course, the battlefield, that is where men fight and kill, let women Stay away from there.

"Hi, Gordon, you still pick us up here personally!"

In front of a not luxurious hotel, Catherine stepped out of the extension car and saw Gordon at the door of the hotel at a glance. The police chief changed into decent clothes for an unprecedented time today, and her pale hair was neatly combed. Qi, also dressed up carefully, looks like he is ten years younger. You know, after Gordon suffered that terrible day, he is a middle-aged man in his 40s. Just looking at his appearance is enough to be 60 years old. How old it looks.

"You look so cool today! Uncle Gordon!"

Emma and Clarice circled Gordon twice and joked: "If you are 10 years younger, I will chase you."

"All right, girls, go in."

Gordon’s smile was a little unnatural, of course. Being teased by a group of young and beautiful little girls, an honest person like him would naturally be a little unaware of how to deal with it, so no one paid attention to Gordon’s clenched fist, and There was a trace of pain in his eyes from time to time.

"You go first. I have already covered the third floor of the entire hotel. I have to pick up little Barbara and her brother."

Gordon opened his sleeves, glanced at the watch on his wrist, then smiled decently at Selena and May, and said softly:

"Wait a moment, they should get off the plane soon."

"Oh, I know you want to surprise them, right!"

Catherine laughed and took Emma and Clarice's hands, and took them into the newly decorated hotel interior, while Gordon told Selena from the outside:

"Today I also invited the mayor and the chiefs of most of the city hall departments, as well as some directors of Wayne Industries. Recently, they are discussing the restriction of the activities of the Devil Gang. I think with this banquet, you should help Cyber Improve your relationship with them."

Selena was shocked, then nodded with a smile on her face, and thanked Gordon in a low voice:

"Thank you so much, Mr. Gordon."

"It's okay."

Gordon waved his hand, turned to his car and opened the door. He looked back at Selena and May and said with a smile: "Seb is also my loyal friend, isn't it?"

Seeing Gordon leave, Selena breathed a sigh of relief, took May's arm, and said in her ear:

"These entertainment events are really annoying, I thought it was a simple family dinner."

Mei didn't answer immediately. She watched Gordon's car disappear into the corner in the distance, her brows frowned slightly, and the instinct of an 8th level agent was telling her that things seemed not simple, but she thought about it for a moment. , But did not find any source of anxiety.

"What's wrong? Mei, is there something wrong?"

Wearing a red dress and very formal, but a little sleepy, Felicity walked up slowly and took May's other arm. She curiously asked, "Are you feeling well?"

"No, nothing, maybe I think too much."

Mei shook her head, she reached out and touched the pistol on her waist, breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled at the other two girls: "Let's go, let's go in."

The moment she walked into the hall, looking at the wine glass mountain and the coveted dignitaries in the banquet hall in front of her, a trace of disgust flashed on Selena’s face, but disappeared in an instant. She turned her head to the person next to her. The two companions said:

"Look, this is Gotham's upper class society. Back then, I hated this kind of occasion very much. Now I think I will get used to it, but when I stand here, I find that I still hate it."

"This is a good thing."

Mei reached out and took two glasses of wine from the tray dragged by the waiter in front of him, handed one to Selena, and winked at her:

"Trust me."

The three women stepped into the crowd. Among them were full of dignitaries they had seen or hadn't seen. Even the directors of Wayne Industries were not the most dazzling people among them. Gordon did not lie. The gold content of a banquet is absolutely high enough. Anyone who can enter it is a significant figure in a certain link and industry of Gotham.

However, when these big figures saw Selena and May, they always took the initiative to greet them and touch the cups. It's not that they are noble, but they have appeared in the Devil Gang with Saibo many times. After this important occasion, anyone who is slightly sensitive knows that the relationship between these two women and the Lord of the Devil Gang is unusual.

There are some rumours that one of them will become the hostess of the now more and more prosperous Devil Gang. This identity is a bit terrifying. A power that occupies one third of a city with a population of 800, and one that only pays taxes. A group worth a quarter of the total revenue of Gotham City Hall is sufficient no matter how courteous it is.

In fact, no matter what these big black or white people think in their hearts and how they evaluate the Devil Gang, they have to admit that that power and their master have become an inseparable part of Gotham. In other words, in external situations, they are already "owners".

"Miss Selena, thank you for the necklace you gave my daughter last time."

The most distinguished person present, the Mayor of Nestor surrounded by a group of people, walked over with a smile, greeted some people, and then raised the cup in her hand to Selena and said with a smile:

"She told me she liked the necklace very much. It was the best gift she received for her 20th birthday. You really have a good taste."

"I'm also honored that she will like it."

Selena gave a very decent smile. She took a sip of her drink and said softly:

"Actually, I'm planning to invite your daughter to my house as a guest. After talking to her last time, I found out that she has studied jewelry very deeply. I would like to ask her to taste my jewelry, you know, Cyber ​​and him. My sister is not someone who pays attention to these things. It is always boring to chat with him. My life is in desperate need of a young enough elegant like your daughter."

Hearing this, the smile on Mayor Nestor’s face grew stronger. He pondered for a moment and nodded:

"Then I will let her mother take her to visit another day. In fact, she and little Catherine are also very good friends."

"Syber and I are very welcome."

Selena also smiled and said: "I believe that you and your family will become our best friends and partners."

Yes, everyone in this banquet wears a mask, which is definitely not what they really want to say, but they will say it in a very sincere manner without appearing hypocritical.

But for the Mayor of Nestor or the Devil Gang, this is a win-win relationship. The mayor needs the Devil Gang to continue to maintain the prosperity and development of the dock area. The Devil Gang needs the entire city hall In some ways, one eye is closed, especially when the Mexican War and the Devil Gang are inextricably linked, it is an absolute good thing to get the goodwill of the mayor.

Selena can become an internationally renowned jewellery thief, not only relying on skillful technology, her wisdom is also not weak, she knows what choice is best for Cyber ​​and the Devil Gang.

Although Gordon picks up his sons and daughters, the host of the banquet is not there, but this will not affect the whole banquet. In fact, Gordon only needs to provide a sufficiently safe and high-grade occasion, other things He doesn't need to participate anymore.

These high-ranking officials will naturally complete the next things very skillfully, one transaction, one favor business, the confrontation where the knife is hidden in the laughter, and so smoothly under the cover of laughter.

"I said, Uncle Lucius, my outfit should be upgraded for the seventh time. I have many new ideas, such as"

Selena and other little girls gathered around the CEO of Wayne Industries, Mr. Lucius, who was over 60, chatting non-stop. Lucius was sitting on the sofa, drinking wine while casually talking. Answer two sentences.

In the beginning, he just made battle suits for Batman, and now he has become the largest private combat equipment supplier on the entire East Coast. Mr. Lucius’s life trajectory is also very gorgeous, and now, in his semi-retired state, he likes Chatting with these young girls is more comfortable than chatting with the guys who come with purpose.

"Okay, let me rest this old bone."

Lucius took a sip of her drink and looked at Catherine: "After your brother comes back, I will visit your house in person. We'll talk about it at that time, okay? You terrible little devil boss."

"But my brother doesn't need it anymore!"

Catherine akimbo her hips and said frankly, "It's not that I won't give you money, Uncle Lucius, the customer is God."

"Sorry."

Lucius replied quietly: "But I'm an atheist, little Catherine, you really feel like talking about this kind of thing on this occasion."

"boom"

Lucius's words were not finished yet, an abrupt gunshot stopped all the scrambles in the entire hall, and Mei was agitated, and she drew her body in front of Selena and the mayor, rubbing her fingers in her bag, two The remodeled pistol appeared in her hand, and she watched the direction of the gunfire vigilantly. The next moment, a tall figure walked slowly from the red carpet.

In the dark, he is like a giant beast, every breath is so heavy, he wears a black furry cloak, lined with gray hunting suit, wearing riding boots, holding a struggling guard in his hand, and in the other. Holding a pistol, behind him are hundreds of black-clothed thugs holding weapons.

He walked into the bright banquet hall, his fierce gaze swept over everyone in front of him, and he let out a deep laugh:

"Gotham's dignitaries, hello, although I came late, but I still came, and finally did not miss the appointment."

"who are you!"

A courageous old man asked loudly: "This is not the place you should be!"

"who am I?"

Bain shrugged, he stretched out his hand to adjust his breathing mask, and whispered:

"I am the end of Gotham, I am here to end this place that should have been destroyed long ago!"

He stretched out his fingers and stroked everyone in front of him:

"Start with you, one by one, to get rid of all the decay in this place, to warn the world, and then bring a brand new future!"

"My existence is necessary, sirs and ladies, you have been living in drunken fandom, just like London hundreds of years ago, or even more ancient Rome, but it doesn’t matter, I will help you free from this stagnant city, just tonight."

Baine raised his fingers, behind him, the weapons in the hands of the thugs also raised, and he let out an evil laugh, like the first ray of fear that rose in the dark night of Gotham:

"Good night, Gotham."
