Chapter 2344 Gotham Music Festival (Part 76)

Chapter 2337 Gotham Music Festival (seventy-six)

Peter's injury was not serious. Although Deathstroke is also a genetically modified person, his setting is more focused on omnipotence and tactics. He has no special performance in terms of strength. Even punching Spider-Man twice with his bare hands cannot cause much damage.

"Why you?" Bruce asked curiously.

Peter looked away.

Bruce stared at him.

Peter sighed and said, "Well, I heard that he is a killer. In order to stop his evil behavior, I hacked into his mailbox and deleted some inappropriate employment for him."

"The beating you received was really unjust."

"But that's not the point. The point is that I didn't delete them completely. Those emails were left in the recycling bin. So when other Spider-Man hacked in, they found that Deathstroke had deleted those orders that were high-priced but not justice enough, so they They desperately sent emails to say hello to Deathstroke because they thought he might be a hidden hero."

Bruce covered his eyes.

"By the way." Bruce looked at Peter and said, "Have you heard anything from the FBI during your time here?"

Peter thought about it seriously and said, "No, I haven't heard from the FBI for a long time. I heard from Gotham locals that they can't enter the city."

"This was true before." Bruce looked worried. He said: "Since the situation in Gotham has improved, more and more strange people have begun to enter here. It can only be said that the coin has two sides."

"Although I don't like the FBI's violent methods, do you think they can't shoulder the responsibility of strengthening security in this city?"

"I'm afraid their primary purpose of coming here is not to strengthen security here." Bruce shook his head gently and said, "Their violent methods are usually not to maintain security."

"You don't want them to come in?" Peter saw Bruce's resistance and said: "But you are destined to be unable to refuse people who enter after the city becomes better, then you have no way to avoid the infiltration of agents."

"I don't view this city as my own private property," Bruce said. "Everyone has the right to be here, but if they're going to do something against me before they even get in, then I'm afraid. I had to retaliate."

That's right, Schiller applauded Bruce in his heart, and hurry up to do the main mission. Those people who get in among the tourists will be your biggest worry in the future.

Bruce stood up. He didn't seem to want to wait any longer. Peter stood up with him. The wounds on their faces were almost healed. He said, "Is there anything I can do to help? "

"I'm afraid there really is." Bruce said: "I need some manpower to find the murderer of a serial murder case in the city." Bruce did not tell Gordon directly about the FBI. He still did not want Gordon to Den faces too much pressure.

So he simply summarized this as a serial murder case. He said: "It is not impossible for the police to do this, but after all, the police in Gotham are ordinary people, and the murderer of this serial murder case is particularly cruel. If If you come, we can reduce some manpower losses."

"I'm honored to be able to help." Peter said: "But there is a more troublesome fact. Deathstroke is still looking for trouble for us."

"Just do your best." Bruce actually wanted to say that Deathstroke's actions against Spider-Man were actually just a small fight, a bit like just having some fun for yourself, rather than really doing anything to Spider-Man. Something.

Bruce has done some research on this extremely famous mercenary master. Deathstroke seems to like to have trouble with teenagers and seems to get fun from beating them. This is probably a way for him to participate in music festivals.

But this is not the case for the FBI. It is impossible for a mercenary like Deathstroke to have trouble with the FBI. It is no exaggeration to say that many times Deathstroke's mission targets are unable to resist him, and the biggest resistance he encounters is these violent forces. Law enforcement agencies.

Although the FBI often does not engage in human affairs, it is still a law enforcement agency. No matter how powerful Deathstroke is, he is still a killer who cannot be tolerated by an orderly society. The opponent of the FBI is only a master tactician, but the opponent of Deathstroke is the American state machine and even the entire society. .

Therefore, the showdown between them is not one-sided with Deathstroke having the advantage. In most cases, the two sides are evenly matched. Occasionally Deathstroke will suffer. As for the FBI's losses, no one cares. The new agents are like leeks. Once they are cut, they will return. There is a problem.

In this case, Deathstroke will definitely seize every opportunity to regain his position. Even if it only temporarily weakens the FBI, it can relieve a lot of pressure on his subsequent missions.

So it's better for Spider-Man to chase Deathstroke behind his back. This trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife is not only used by the FBI.

Bruce left quickly. He still had a lot to deal with. Schiller wanted to go back to the guest room upstairs to sleep, but his housekeeper called him and said someone was visiting, so Schiller had to drive home.

Before entering the manor, he saw Oliver waiting at the door. Oliver walked towards him with a smile and said, "I thought there would be a reception banquet just for me. I missed a lot, right?"

Schiller didn't want to pretend anymore, because his mission to cause trouble for Gordon had been completed, but unfortunately, Oliver's visit made it impossible for him to go to bed now even if he didn't pretend to be arrogant with a chaotic schedule.

The advantage of pretending to be arrogant at this moment is that if he is not a doctor, there is no need to take care of the patients' emotions and try his best to answer every question they have. Greed is not sure that he can perfectly complete the doctor's work in his current sleepy and dizzy state. As for his responsibilities, he didn't want to ruin his reputation.

Then let's fully experience the day of arrogance. It's good to be a mental patient who can say whatever he wants.

Schiller and Oliver walked towards the manor. As they walked, Oliver said, "Sorry, I came a little early. I know you won't get up so early when there are no classes."

"Usually," Schiller said.

The two sat down on the sofa, Merkel brought hot tea, and Oliver looked out the window through the mist of tea. At this time, the street trees had turned yellow, and part of the mountain view that could be seen from the long window of the manor had become As red as the fire in the fireplace.

"I have decided not to go back to Mexico for the time being." Oliver put his hands on his knees and said, "Ms. Romanoff is right. If I always want to save them from above, and they are so dependent on me, then this It’s never their own fight.”

"That could make things worse," Schiller said.

"This is true for a period of time, but my leaving does not mean that I will forget it forever. I will continue to pay attention to the situation. Once an incident occurs that may lead to irreparable consequences, I will try my best to get everything back on track."

Schiller nodded silently. He lowered his eyes and looked a little tired. This look only flashed by, but it was caught by Oliver. Oliver stood up directly and said: "I'm sorry, I came too early. Professor, I came to you to say that I want to rent a house in Gotham, but I am not a local after all and I don’t know where the location is. I hope you can give me some advice. "

"But there's no rush. You can rest first. Maybe I can walk around the city with the real estate agent first."

Schiller shook his head and said: "You can find any kind of intermediary in this city, including arms, drug trafficking, and war, but there are only no houses. Landlords of houses in good locations will not rent houses to outsiders."

"Why?" Oliver asked curiously.

"The situation in Gotham used to be bad. People who knew this and still seemed to come here either got into big trouble, or they themselves were big trouble, and the landlord didn't want to cause trouble."

Oliver nodded to express his understanding. Schiller paused briefly, as if thinking, and then said to Merkel: "Go get the phone book."

"Which one?" Merkel asked.

"The one on the right on the shelf," Schiller said, frowning.

Soon Merkel brought a phone book, but Schiller did not read it and only asked Merkel to hand the phone book into Oliver's hands.

Oliver didn't open it, but he thought it might have the landlord's phone number, so he said, "If the phone goes through, do I have to tell them I was introduced?"

"Yes, just tell me my name." Schiller nodded.

In fact, he only had a vague impression of everything. When he was looking through the memory bank, he occasionally came across some scraps, but he could still remember how Arrogance usually lived.

Because the era lags behind that of Marvel, phone books have been used here for a long time, and most of the phone calls used in daily life are also recorded in the phone book.

Schiller vaguely remembered that the book on the right side of the shelf should have written the phone numbers of some local people Schiller knew. Oliver called them one by one and asked, and he should be able to find the landlord.

In fact, Schiller should have called Oliver Cobot directly, but because of the music festival, Copot has been too busy recently. Schiller couldn't get through the phone before. There is no need to disturb the Gotham rookie with such a small matter as renting a house. , any local can do it.

"Sorry for disturbing me again." Oliver nodded to Schiller and then left the manor with the phone book.

He came by car. After walking out of the manor, he walked straight to his car parked on the side of the road and got in. He did not drive away immediately, but planned to call and ask first. Once he found the destination, he could drive there directly. .

Oliver opened the phone book, and then he found that the book only contained phone numbers and names, not what these people did for a living. He scratched his head in confusion, but thought it was possible that these were locals. Decided to call one by one and ask.

After two beeps, the phone was connected. Oliver held the hinge of the phone book and said: "Hello, I want to rent a house. Can you find me a house with convenient transportation, a separate bathroom and kitchen, and an office?" Area house? My introducer is Schiller Rodriguez.”

There was an eerie silence on the other side.

Oliver wondered whether his requirements were a bit high. He said: "I really want a single apartment. I can pay 300 US dollars a week for this. But if there are difficulties, an ordinary independent single room is also available, but it must be available." Desk, I need to get some journalism done.”

Oliver is not completely inexperienced in social life. He first reported a relatively high-end house type, then said that he was willing to provide high rent, showing his financial resources, and then emphasized that he must have an office space, and partially revealed that he wanted to work in This will show that you have a stable job and can pay your rent on time. "

"What's your name?" asked the other person.

Oliver felt that the accent of the person on the other side was a bit strange, but not because it was not standard, but because it was too standard. Gotham locals still have some accents, but the person on the other side sounded like a newscaster.

Oliver knew that he couldn't say his real name because he was already a wanted criminal, but the key was the last name Quinn. There were too many people named Oliver in the world, so he just had to change his last name.

"Oliver Dursley." Oliver made up a last name and said, "A newspaper reporter from the West Coast, who might work here for a year or two."
