There is a bat in action in the dark.The sour smell of rain fell on the black cloak, and there was no sound, except for the occasional flash of electric light in the sky, which gave the strange fabric a damp glow.It was lying on the roof of a building, watching a factory in the distance below, and the bat tilted its head as it watched as a cargo ship approached, as if it was thinking about something.But at this moment, someone came behind the bat, also silent, but still frightening.The bat immediately turned back, and she could see the black and yellow armor through the lightning, as well as the orangutan detective who was smiling and raising his hand to say hello.She breathed a sigh of relief and shifted her body slightly: "Isn't this my investor who always disappears?"
Why are you here today?
”"Missing investors?"
Bobo landed on the rooftop and looked at the death knell curiously."
I made some money from Batman before, and I didn't spend much of it, so I gave it to Barbara and asked her to help me take care of it in the Foundation."
Su Ming spread his hands and said that there was nothing unseemly.Then he crouched down to the edge of the rooftop and looked in the direction of the pier.This is a factory on the east coast of Gotham, which used to be only unfinished buildings, but I don't know when a new factory popped up here, not small, and has its own new dock.At this time, some small cargo ships pulling containers are busy at night, and they don't look like they're doing a good job."
Barbara's Foundation?
Isn't that the Gotham Police Foundation?
”Bobo didn't have particularly good eyesight and didn't have bat equipment, so he took out a small monocular to look at the factory with everyone, and said the gossip: "The money earned from the operation has been invested in the pension of the casualty police, I didn't know you would still have love for the police?"
”"Prejudice, I'm going to criticize you well, Bobo, if nothing else, Sheriff Gordon alone, I've saved his life three times."
Su Ming smiled and stretched out his fingers, he had already memorized the structure of the factory in his mind: "So I put the money in the Police Public Welfare Foundation, and it makes sense to launder them with them, right?"
”"I knew...
But little girl, what business have you done with the money from the death knell?
”Bobo asks Batgirl, and also stealthily glances at somewhere in Barbara's back lumbar vertebrae.Barbara is very grateful for Deathstroke, as she said, just saving her father so many times is already a great favor.And the time she used the trickster's drawing board to pair up Death Bell and Wonder Woman, it was more like adding to the mess, but Death Knell didn't blame her, but gave her the money to take care of.She wiped the rain from her face and replied in a whisper, "Real estate." ”The night and rain drowned out her voice, neon lights could be seen everywhere in Gotham at night, and the city in the distance seemed hazy and erratic."
Gotham's real estate?"
Bobo's expression was as if he had eaten bitter melon."
Well, I also know about the situation in Gotham, and of course I won't buy a house here."
Barbara was a little ashamed, after all, this was her hometown, but the orangutan was actually the old man of the Gotham Circus, and everyone knew the situation: "Death Knell said that his money was useless, and he just asked me to keep it, so he chose some places to keep his value." ”Asked this, Bobo has already understood the operation of the death knell, to put it bluntly, he is close to the bat family.Deathstroke asks for payment from Batman in order to make Batman think that he has worldly desires, to distinguish himself from mere mortals like Superman who seem to be gods.Then he handed over the money to Barbara to take care of, and Batman would naturally know about it, and this connection instead constituted a complex emotional connection.Deathstroke does not reveal that he wants to be friends with Batman, because Batman's friends can only be mentally ill.The clever Death Knell chooses to be friends with every one of Batman's few friends, even the Joker, so that Batman passively accepts Death Knell into his life and gradually gets used to it.Connections are a net, but Bobo has never seen relationships as a means of layout like Death Knell, but even Batman doesn't seem to notice it now, he has unconsciously conceded to Death Knell again and again.From all sorts of bat jokes and pranks, to Deathbell's manpower for Gotham operations, Batman never seemed to object?
Thinking of this, the orangutan detective showed a playful look, but said nothing."
Are you here for this?"
Su Ming didn't care what the orangutan was thinking, after all, Bobo was a good secretary, he just pulled back the topic and took out the canned beans in Bobo's pocket to show Barbara."
That's right, this is it."
Batgirl nodded, and she pulled out a can of beans from her bat belt, but she was empty.The rain clanged into the cans, and soon the acidity in the rainwater began to react with the can residue, giving off a stench similar to that of a sewer.Barbara frowned and threw away the empty cans, and continued to squat and communicate with Deathbell: "I found out a few days ago that a new cannery has opened on the east coast of Gotham, and I originally only suspected that it was used by the family to take drugs and arms, so I hacked into the Internet and checked their import and export records, guess what I found?"
”When it comes to investigating the case, she is energetic, and her big shining eyes blink behind the mask, as if she is showing off her skills to the death knell, which looks a little cute."
Their raw material import records are either all fake, or they say that they are produced on an alternate Earth in the multiverse?"
Su Ming smiled and let the cloak prop up a rainproof area, and then took out the hot cocoa to share with the girl.After all, the stalking and surveillance on a rainy day are more compatible with chocolate."
You know that, too?
I thought I was the only one who cared about it. ”Barbara also obviously didn't like acid rain, she lowered her head and went into the shed of the death knell, happily accepted a cup of hot cocoa in the middle of the night, and said something serious: "Thank you for the hot drink, I only connected their factory with the group of people who promote the multiverse wealth theory on the Internet today, and there is no definite evidence, so I haven't told Batman or the Justice League yet." ”"Don't tell Batman, your bat family should also let him save some snacks, leave some time for him to get Catwoman and the money back, you can find me if you have anything, and I'll call the shots for you."
Deathstroke looks like he thinks about Batman and begins to instill certain ideas in Barbara.The girl didn't notice anything wrong, but nodded gratefully, feeling that the death knell was right.She was really led astray by taking a sip of hot cocoa, her expression became a little lonely, and she said bitterly: "I really thought that Serena would be his destination, but I didn't expect her to be that kind of woman, alas."
What's the use of her asking for so much money?
If you take a few hundred million dollars, you won't be able to spend it in your lifetime, right?
”"You forget that there's a clown behind it, and when he appears, things get crazy and messy, and we can't imagine what people do when they're crazy.So don't get involved in Batman's personal feelings, drink something hot and get ready, and then I'll take you to the factory to find clues. ”Su Ming held his cup and touched it lightly with the cup in Barbara's hand.Sure enough, at the mention of solving the case, the girl smiled again, and she nodded vigorously.
