Chapter 134 I Need Bruce's Fingerprint
At the entrance of Iceberg Restaurant.
Hannibal brought Selina here.
"Are you sure your friend named Bane is here to meet me?"
Selina hesitated to go in.
In Gotham, ordinary citizens have nothing to worry about in places like Iceberg Restaurant.
But those people in the dark world cannot just go in without permission.
Either you want to join the Penguin, or you are here to mess things up.
Especially the behind-the-scenes boss of Iceberg Restaurant, Penguin, is famous for his emphasis on rules.
To be honest, Selina never wants to step into the Penguin's territory in her life.
Because the Penguin's deterrent power is too big in the underground world of Gotham.
"Haha, Miss Kyle, Bane is staying inside now."
Hannibal made a gesture of invitation.
"Don't worry, Bane and Mr. Cobblepot are also partners."
Selina's eyes condensed instantly.
Hannibal was talking about partners, which means that this unheard-of Bane could actually talk to Penguin on an equal footing?
Then Bane's power would at least not be much worse than Penguin's gang.
Even Hannibal was willing to join this alliance.
Two big men with such great power and vision joined together, what was this trying to do?
How could I, a small thief, be favored by them?
They even sent Hannibal to rescue me.
Selena kept thinking in her mind, she felt that she might be involved in an unprecedented war.
Under Hannibal's leadership, none of the waiters in the restaurant came up to stop them.
They arrived at the top floor of the restaurant unimpeded.
As soon as she walked out of the elevator door, Selena entered a luxury suite.
But the next second she found that Hannibal did not follow her out of the elevator.
"Ms. Kyle, I have heard of your name for a long time. You are a rare talent."
Looking at the Penguin, it seems that he has been waiting for a long time.
Next to the Penguin stood a sturdy man who was no smaller than Kingpin.
There was only one strange thing, the sturdy man was wearing a mask that looked like a respirator, covering most of his face.
Faced with Cobblepot's warm hospitality, Selena said she couldn't bear it.
"Mr. Cobblepot, it's my honor to meet you, our first meeting."
Selena shook hands with the Penguin with a hypocritical smile on her face.
"I guess this is..."
"Bane."
The sturdy man with a mask took the initiative to speak.
His voice was uniquely hoarse, and it felt like a person wearing a respirator trying to speak desperately.
There was an inexplicable magnetism that made people want to listen.
"Ms. Kyle, I don't like to talk in a roundabout way. I came to you just to invite you to join us."
"And your first mission after joining us is to steal something."
Bane looked like a rather rough man, but his tone of voice was very polite.
Although what he said was very tough.
"Before talking about this, I want to know why you are looking for me?"
Selina did not agree directly.
"You are the best thief in Gotham."
Bane said as a matter of course.
"Maybe before, but now I should only be the second."
"Kaito Kidd's targets are basically gems, and he may not give us the stolen things."
At this time, Penguin interrupted the conversation between the two.
"The most important thing is that he is currently mainly active in New York, and we don't know where to find him."
Bane nodded.
"Compared to that, you are the best choice."
"Okay, then what is it that makes you hire an outsider to steal it?"
There is nothing wrong with this reason, and Selina reluctantly accepted it.
"Bruce Wayne's fingerprints."
Bane said so.
"What?"
Selina blinked her eyes, what did he say he wanted to steal from Bruce Wayne?
"We need Bruce Wayne's fingerprint."
"What do you want this for?"
Originally, there is a taboo in the thief business, that is, no matter what the employer asks you to steal, you can't ask the reason behind it.
Whether to accept this order or not depends entirely on you.
But Selina's current situation is different.
If she dares not to accept this order, Bane and Penguin will never let her leave alive.
So, even if she asked questions that she shouldn't ask, Selina wanted to be a ghost who knows.
"This doesn't seem to be a question you should ask, kitten."
Penguin maintained a warm businessman's smile and reminded Selina not to meddle in other people's business.
"Don't be so harsh, my friend."
Bane actually waved his hand at Penguin, and he looked at Selina with deep eyes.
"Ms. Kyle, I need Bruce's fingerprint to complete a great cause."
"You don't need to know what it does now. When you succeed, all of us can witness that great moment."
Bane opened his hands, indicating that he had a huge blueprint.
"What great cause requires fingerprints? Do you want to destroy the Wayne family?"
"No, I want to give this city a new life!"
Bane walked to the window and opened his hands to the outside, as if he was intoxicated by some imagination.
Selina naturally didn't believe this set of rhetoric, but she had no choice.
Continuing to ask would be really courting death.
Cobblepot sneered in his heart, why did he say it so nicely?
And let Gotham be reborn?
Isn't it just for money?
Penguin knew that Bane had actually been recruiting and training various homeless people behind the scenes, and there should be thousands of them so far.
Bane was secretly forming an army.
Although Penguin didn't know what Bane wanted to do, he was not afraid of Bane.
When it comes to private armies, Penguin has never been afraid of anyone.
Penguin can see that Bane has no interest in running the black industry.
This means that there is no direct conflict of interest between him and Bane, so they have the premise for cooperation.
Establishing an army is not a simple matter. The most important thing is to spend money.
Bane needs a large number of small and medium-sized weapons. Not only that, thousands of mouths need to eat, and all of them need money to invest.
What can you do with Bruce Wayne's fingerprints?
Cobblepot's mind is like a mirror.
The richest company in Gotham is Wayne Enterprises.
And Bruce owns the largest number of Wayne Enterprises stocks.
As long as they have Bruce's fingerprints, they can easily transfer Bruce's stocks to themselves.
Of course, Penguin also has a share in this. He knows better than anyone how rich Wayne is.
"I have a condition. If you can't agree, I will never help you even if I die."
Selina suddenly said.
"Go ahead, Miss Kyle."
Bain generously let her make her request. It's never a bad thing to have conditions.
"I want to settle the old score with Daggett first."
