Chapter 117 The Phantom of Gotham is finally in order
After waving away old Gibbs, Harley asked with concern: "Are you having a conflict with Bruce?"
Half a year has passed. At first, I was just leaning on the wall to peek at the handsome young man's silver face. Now I have met and become acquainted with the person I like, and they are almost in a semi-love state.
When Harley initially encouraged Kitten to confess her love to Bruce, she was not sure whether the two could be together.
They have almost no overlap in terms of life, hobbies and outlook on life.
“Tonight, I will attend the charity gala organized by Wayne Group with him.” She suddenly covered her face and said with a wry smile: “Good expectations, embarrassing start, terrible failure halfway.
It’s my fault that I couldn’t help itching my hands and stole the bracelet of a director’s wife.”
“Caught red-handed?” Harry was embarrassed for her.
"No, but Bruce found out, and then we had a fight. I said that I make a living by stealing, and if I don't steal, I will starve to death. What do you think the bastard said?"
Harry thought for a while and said: "He said, 'It's all just excuses. You can always make a living by having hands and feet'?"
Selena glanced at her in surprise and said in a slightly sour tone: "You really understand him. Although it's not entirely correct, the meaning is correct.
He said that even if I was wearing the most ordinary dress and working as a waitress at KFC, when he held my hand and entered the banquet hall, he could still hold his head high and proudly introduce me to everyone, but "
"He's telling the truth," Harley nodded, "If you really want to be Mrs. Wayne, Martha Wayne is the one to learn from.
There is no need to do anything, don’t think about anything, just work hard to be moved by the orphans, widows and poor, and then work hard to spend money for charity.”
“Is that still me?” the kitten was excited.
“He could find ten thousand girls like that on the Upper East Side, but that’s not me.
In addition to daily necessities, stealing has become a part of my life.
To deny it is to deny the first half of my life.
If it was just for money, I would have agreed to your invitation and joined your "Quinn Family" for free.
If he loves me, he should love me as I am, instead of reshaping me into another person in the name of love."
Harry shrugged and said, "There's nothing we can do about it. When two people get along, one of them has to make a compromise."
“Forget it, let’s not talk about him, I’m looking for you for other reasons. Half a month ago, I picked up another girl in the alley, Ivy Pepper, and now she almost has no place to live.”
“Why not send it over as soon as possible?” Harley asked.
“At that time, you had not yet stabilized, and everyone on the road thought that you would have a fight with the Russians. Unexpectedly, they were so cowardly that they gave up all their territory.”
A hint of disdain appeared on Yinpan’s face.
"Haha, you are wrong. It's not that they are cowardly, but that I am too strong." Harley smiled coldly, "Although the boss is dead, the foundation of the Russian Gang has not been damaged.
They were first dissatisfied with Falcone for not selecting Nikola's successor among the Russians, and then when they saw me in person, they bullied me for being young.
How dare you say something stupid like asking me to be the 'lady of the gang leader'."
“Well, haven’t they watched TV? How dare they tease the witch?”
The corners of his silver-faced mouth twitched, feeling that he had misunderstood the Russians.
Harry's expression became strange, "What do you think I did with that 'cousin Nicola'?"
“Torture him and then blow his head off in front of everyone?”
“Hey, I called all the Russians over, summoned a slug-like ***, used his dick as a straw, and sucked it into a piece of human skin. Finally, the soul was visibly pulled into hell.”
Harry giggled, "Those Russians were so scared that they peed. They really peed, and their shit and urine flowed out."
“I’m about to pee too.” Yinpanlian’s face turned blue, “Harry, you make me feel strange.”
Harry said lightly: "Do you know why Nicola dares to dream of the Roman throne? His territory is the poorest among the Falcone family."
Selina immediately said: "Because he violated Falcone's prohibition and secretly sold du by taking advantage of the convenience of warehousing and logistics. With money comes power, and with power comes ambition."
“**, even you know this, so you can imagine how arrogant that bastard is, and he really deserves to die.”
Harry stood up, gave old Gibbs a few words, and walked to the back parking lot.
Mao Mao followed her and said: "Even if he is a drug dealer, he can just blow his head off with a gun. Why is he so cruel?"
“The trafficker deserves to die, but I am not mentioning this to add to his crime, but to illustrate the extent of the benefits that the Russians are striving for.
It was so big that Nikolai had the courage to dream of the throne of old Kamai.
The greater the benefits, the greater the motivation.
Hence, it is very difficult for Russians to give up the industries they have been operating for many years.
This is why you and the people of Gotham feel that there will be a big war between me and the Russians.
My methods are of course cruel, but it is this cruel black magic that makes Russians completely terrified."
Harry looked at the kitten and smiled and said, "You should think about how many lives I have indirectly saved?"
"Harry, you also misunderstood me. I don't care whether the Russians go to hell or not. What I worry about is you. You just do it casually. I think black magic is changing you." The kitten said worriedly.
The two of them were talking and came to a jeep.
There was a gunman bodyguard on each side of the driver's seat and one on the passenger's side. The cat mentioned the name of the place, and Harley pulled up the soundproof baffle between the front and rear seats.
At this time, she sighed: "What has changed is the knowledge, not the character.
You think it is evil to use black magic to send people to hell because your understanding of hell is too religious.
Now I understand that hell is equivalent to an alien planet.
The so-called demons are just aliens.
There is no essential difference between using black magic to kill people and manipulating alien weapons to kill people.”
“Even if you kill someone, cruelty will distort your character.” Mao Mao insisted.
Harry smiled bitterly and said: "Forget it, all the punishments imposed by the demons in hell are learned from us humans. I promise you that you will use less black magic in the future.
Actually, I didn’t want to use it in the first place.
Every time I use black magic, my mental state gets worse."
What she did not confess was that the use of black magic in public not only deterred her younger brother and external enemies, but also completed the wizard group's mission of "promoting the power of darkness".
Hmm, she’s connected with the wizarding group.
Previously, she was sleeping in the Owl spaceship, with no fixed address, and the wizarding team couldn't find her even if they tried to find her.
Later she joined the Falcone family, her location became known to everyone, and a "messaging bird" came to find her.
However, just as the Happy Demon guessed, although she is famous, her magic power is not strong. Although the wizard group values her, they have no intention of bringing her into the inner circle.
“Are you still seeing a psychiatrist now?” Kitty looked at her with concern.
“The combination of psychological comfort and medicine is really good for my condition.”
The bulletproof jeep stopped in front of a high-end apartment. Harley said in surprise: "I know this place. The rent starts at five thousand dollars. How can your friend live here?"
“You have forgotten that one of the survival skills of street children is to find an empty house. I also gave you a map that day.”
Selena walked into the apartment openly, as if she really lived here.
Empty house refers to an empty house that is temporarily unoccupied by an owner and has not been rented out.
The gap between the rich and the poor in the United States is so big that the rich have so many houses that they can’t remember it, but the poor have no place to shelter.
Some street children analyze whether the house can be "borrowed" through data such as electricity meters, water meters and gas bills.
“This is Jim Gordon’s house!” Harley said oddly.
What’s even more strange is that when the doorbell rang, it was Gordon’s fiancée Barbara who opened the door.
“Harry? Are you looking for Gordon? He has moved away.” Barbara, wearing a cool shorts, stood at the door.
"He left? Where did he go? I just saw the news about him." Harley asked doubtfully.
“Alas!” Barbara sighed and explained the reason.
Last time, because of her stupidity, Gordon failed. Although it turned out that the old godfather had been setting up a trap all along, Gordon could not succeed anyway, but Barbara was a little confused.
Leave only one text message and left Gotham.
Gordon called many times but no one answered, thinking that Barbara was breaking up with him, and he himself felt that it would be safer for Barbara to leave him.
So, he moved out of Barbara's apartment.
At night half a month ago, the kitten found Ivy in a sleeping paper box in the alley just like she had found Harry.
Ivy was even worse than Harley that day. Not only was she hungry and out of money, she also had a bad cold.
While the kitten was stealing, he was also keeping an eye on empty houses, and even gave Harley a map that day.
Hence, Barbara’s high-end apartment was chosen by her as a temporary residence for her and Ivy.
After staying for half a month, Barbara suddenly ran back, but by this time Gordon already had a new girlfriend
“I said before, Ivy and Kitty, you can always live here. I’m quite lonely.” Barbara poured a glass of water for the three of them and sighed.
"Sister Ba, we understand your kindness, but I also know about you and Detective Gordon. If we leave, you will have the chance to take him home again." Sister-in-law Liang Aiwei whispered.
She has thick blond hair that hangs down on her chest, and a beautiful face that is pale and thin, seemingly weak, but her eyes reveal a sense of tenacity.
"He, I went to the police station to find him. He has a new girlfriend, who is also the police forensic scientist." Barbara said with a dark expression.
“Even if Gordon is gone, you will still have other boyfriends, and we really can’t bother you for a long time.” Selina said.
Finally, Ivy and Kitty left the apartment carrying the clothes given by Barbara.
"Sister Ba, come to my place when you have time. It's in the dock area of Greenwich Village, the best fighting venue in the world." Before leaving, Harley invited.
Getting into the jeep, Ivy held the strap of her backpack tightly, looking a little nervous.
I don’t dare to look at Harry.
"I'm cured now and can support myself without going to Sister Hallie's." She whispered.
Harley laughed, "Ivy, when were you born?"
“90 years.”
“Hey, you are two years older than me, so you don’t need to call me sister, just like a kitten, call me by name.
Don’t be a stranger, the kitten’s friends are my friends.
I was also wandering outside that day. I stayed with the kitten for two days and took away a lot of her clothes and weapons.
Well, there are also hundreds of American knives, so I’m not embarrassed at all." Harley smiled.
“Yes, Ivy, you don’t have to feel embarrassed, she was not as good as you back then.” Mao Mao said, putting his arm around Ivy’s shoulders.
“Sister Harley, I can’t live and eat for free, please help me arrange a job.” Ivy insisted.
