Chapter 111: Aftermath
Gordon stood at the door of the interrogation room with his hands on his hips. He said: "You mean, someone reported to you that they saw two monsters dozens of meters high chasing each other in the living hell neighborhood???"
Then, he pressed the new police officer's shoulder and said: "You only need to ask the reporter one question now - how much did he drink?"
The new police officer was a little embarrassed. He said, "But there are several people saying the same thing..."
"That's just gathering people to take drugs."
After the new police officer left, Gordon leaned against the door frame and thought to himself, these new officers are really worse than the last.
Two monsters more than ten meters tall fighting in a slum? This is Gotham, not Hollywood. Besides, even if such a thing happened, if the local gang saw it, they would definitely shoot a rocket.
Judging from the number of gangsters in Gotham, if this was true, Gordon would be busy collecting the bodies of those two monsters by now.
Therefore, this incident did not have much impact except that the police went to the East District to search the places where people gathered to take drugs.
But Bruce and Venom's troubles are far from over.
First, Bruce is a skeptic, and second, he is a human race supremacist.
In the next few days, Venom was tortured inhumanely. Bruce listed his doubts about Venom into a table. The table alone was as thick as a fist.
Bruce succeeded in making Venom miss Stark, and he now clearly realized that there was an extremely serious problem, and that its host was absolutely, extremely, 100% mentally ill.
There is absolutely no other possibility.
Venom now wants to unilaterally withdraw his original doubt about whether Stark is human. Compared with Bruce, Stark is a very standard human template.
Finally one day, Venom really couldn't stand Batman's mental illness at all. He said to Bruce: "For the sake of helping you before, let's get together and go. You go get a high-power sonic wave." Come on, let's break up and never see each other again!"
Bruce may be the first person to have a creature like the symbiote offer to leave its host.
But Bruce rejected this recognition from the symbiote without thinking. He said: "No, you are the first alien life I have come into contact with. My 897 research projects on alien life have only reached the fourth 2% of 1 plan, and 98% of 896 plans remain. You must cooperate with me to complete all research, and then I will consider whether to let you leave..."
Venom is really desperate.
Originally, the symbiote could voluntarily break away from the host, but the premise was that after breaking away from this host, it could find the next host immediately. Otherwise, after he ran away from Bruce's body, Bruce would be able to catch this piece of mud immediately.
It's not like he hasn't thought about running onto others while Bruce is in contact with them, but since Bruce's dark outbreak, not only can Venom read Bruce's emotions, but Bruce can also read some of Venom's emotions.
Once Venom has the idea of escape, Bruce will start to use some crazy calculations to increase the amount of his brain calculations, keeping Venom in a violent storm and unable to concentrate on escaping.
Venom suddenly realized that he had been fooled.
Especially when he saw Schiller's gloating smile, he realized that he had been transferred from a less sturdy jar to an extremely strong and extremely tortured cell.
What's even more sad is that Bruce mercifully let Venom out for a breath of air that day. Venom was really suffocated to death. He really wanted to go to a similar person to complain, so he went to Schiller.
Then Schiller told a fact that made him extremely desperate: "What? Bruce told you that he had 897 plans? Did you believe it?"
"Dream! If you multiply this number by 10 it might be the real number!"
"If you include backup plans, you might have to multiply that by 100."
Venom discovered that he was inexplicably sentenced to life imprisonment.
In fact, according to Bruce's character, he will not allow a creature with its own independent consciousness to exist in his body, especially if this creature can peek into his thoughts. But the problem is that the species of symbiote is really It was so amazing that Stark couldn't resist his curiosity about them, and neither could Bruce.
After experiencing the dark side explosion, Bruce was quite confident in controlling this alien life form, so he planned to study this life form for a period of time and then return it to the professor.
As for some things about Schiller, Bruce really wanted to ask, but so far he has not succeeded, because every time he asked Schiller about relevant issues, Schiller would simply say: "Nataru."
Then Bruce will barely be able to control the venom that is so angry that he is mad in his body. What was originally a confrontation between Bruce and Schiller will turn into a big fight between Bruce and venom.
As for Catwoman's theft, Schiller had no intention of recovering the diamond bottle. He was just curious, how did Catwoman break into his manor?
He has installed specially designed door locks from Stark Laboratory on all the doors of this manor. This technology is by no means a product of this era, and no thieves should be able to pry it open.
And when Batman grabbed Catwoman by the neck and took her to the scene to identify her, Schiller and Batman were stunned when faced with Catwoman's so-called sneak entrance, which was the sewage channel.
It doesn't look like a place where people can enter.
Because of this, even if Schiller knew there was such an exit, he didn't care at all. Apart from rats, even a wild cat could run in here.
Is this Catwoman good at bone-shrinking skills?
You said that if you have this ability, what else can you do but become a thief?
In fact, Batman also had a headache. When Batman caught Catwoman, Catwoman basically told the truth. When he learned that she had offended the Falcone family, Batman had a terrible headache.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
He had to come forward as Bruce to compensate, and then said that for the sake of the high compensation, the godfather could let Catwoman go. Falcone didn't care much. He had seen a lot of bold thieves. Since She is Batman's lover, so let her go.
But this is not an option if it goes on like this. With the reform of Gotham, such petty thieves who don't do anything serious will have increasingly no chance of survival.
"What do you think I should let Selena do? Last time I suggested to her that she should become a teacher, but she refused to do it. She said that the place where she worked was too far away from the apartment where she lived, and she couldn't take care of Ma. Ji..."
Sitting across the table, Schiller said, "Have you ever considered that she has a considerable advantage."
"What?"
"She's charming."
Seeing Bruce's slightly confused expression, Schiller said: "Maybe this is not an advantage in Gotham, and it will cause some trouble for her, but it will be different if it is elsewhere."
"for example?"
"Like Hollywood."
Schiller took a sip of water and said, "If she can make the famous Batman so dizzy, haven't you considered letting her become a Hollywood actress or something?"
Bruce was stunned for a moment. He really hadn't thought about this idea.
And Schiller is serious. Catwoman is beautiful, but that's not the point. Her acrobatic skills are just the icing on the cake. She only has one characteristic that can be called DC's strongest, and that's charm.
Catwoman can make Batman fans dizzy. Note that it's Batman, not Bruce.
In some comics, the Dark Knight, who is so obsessed with hatred, can be influenced by Catwoman, marry her, have children, and live an ordinary life. What kind of personality charm does this have?
Bruce, Venom and Schiller teamed up to work together inside and outside, and it was a bit difficult to deal with the dark tides from Batman's dark side, but Catwoman easily resolved them all by herself.
In some comics, Batman puts aside his hatred, obsession, and bad memories of the past for her, and simply turns around.
With this kind of law-level charm, if you don’t quickly go to Hollywood and become a crape myrtle star from the sky, what are you waiting for?
"...And you have to consider that Gotham's industry will eventually need to transform. If we need to develop into the entertainment industry and tourism, a city business card is essential." Schiller said.
Bruce also thinks what he said makes sense. Being a star and movie queen is not only a legitimate career, but also very profitable. It can be said that it brings fame and fortune, and it is also good for the development of Gotham City. Why not do it?
And Catwoman herself also has the potential to be a career woman. Although stealing is not a serious job, at least she is trying to support herself through her work. Otherwise, with her beauty, she can be the mistress of any gang boss and she will still be able to get by. I have to be comfortable and not still live in that shabby apartment on the edge of the East End.
