"Mr. Mayor, can you lift your cloak a little higher and let me count the bullet holes? There are hundreds of bullets in these densely packed areas, right? Mr. Mayor, you"
When Ah Fu limped back to the Hanhai Building, he saw Harley, with her torn cloak flying, her face and body covered with traces of smoke, standing next to the scrapped police car, allowing reporters to take pictures.
"Mayor Quinn, my young master is here." Seeing the crowds of people around, Ah Fu was so excited that he did not shout out the news of Bruce's location in public, "My young master has been kidnapped for more than three hours!"
"What, Bruce Wayne has been kidnapped?" The reporters shouted, turned their cameras, and swarmed in front of Ah Fu, surrounding him.
The mayor stood stiffly, surrounded by only a few young reporters who had not taken photos just now.
Don’t blame the reporters for not knowing enough.
It’s not that the mayor’s news value is less than that of Master Wayne.
The news on the mayor's side has been squeezed out, but "Bruce Wayne was kidnapped" is the new news that has just come out.
Harley stood there motionless, and Gordon quickly stepped forward, leading a group of GCPDs, to pull the reporters away and let Ah Fu enter the isolation zone.
"Everyone, give way and let Mr. Pennyworth pass!" he shouted.
After Ah Fu left the reporter, Barnes came over and said with a frown: "Let's go to the command car to talk in detail."
Ah Fu looked at Harley.
Harley did not object, but did not go to command the car immediately. She only said to Barnes with a worried look: "Although we are busy with Galavan's case now, Bruce Wayne's kidnapping is not a trivial matter.
Why don't you stay here and take charge of the overall situation?
I will go back to the police station to interrogate the arrested monks.
Before the raid on Hanhai Tower, I suspected that Galavan had kidnapped Bruce.
Perhaps, we can get information about Bruce from the monks."
Ah Fu was at a loss for a moment, but when he saw the reporters who were handing sound pickers over here, he immediately realized: the kidnappers must also be watching TV. If their location is revealed now, they will definitely move the young master with them, or even break up the vote.
On the contrary, if the robbers see this piece of news and Harley's helpless and worried expression, they will only relax their vigilance, become careless, and then
Gao, indeed brilliant!
Ah Fu admired the mayor to the extreme in his heart, and he also cooperated to put on a miserable look, with red eyes, wiping tears and said: "Mayor, you told me earlier that the young master might be imprisoned in Hanhai Building, but in the end, he was not even found.
.
Then you said that there were many casualties here, and it was not convenient for me to stay as an outsider for too long. You asked me to leave, and you immediately went to interrogate the monks of the order.
Why haven't you been interrogated yet? Are you still being interviewed by reporters?"
Harley's pretty face is shameful. This Ah Fu doesn't know how to praise him. You just cooperate with the acting. Why do you add insinuations to the scene?
"Why are you anxious?" She said seriously with a straight face: "More than a hundred people were killed or injured here, and the people of Gotham are horrified and confused.
As mayor, shouldn't I first appease the people?
I know that Wayne is rich; I know that Wayne is powerful.
But in my heart, ordinary people and Wayne have the same status."
"Well said, Lord Mayor!" After the battle and interviews just now, several reporters have been conquered by Mayor Quinn's bravery and wisdom and have become fans.
Ah Fu was shocked, I just told the truth and I didn’t mean to blame you!
Barnes felt something wasn't right.
Given the show-off personality of the mayor, shouldn't he be allowed to go back to the police station to do the dirty work now, while he should stay here and continue to be interviewed?
Are you worried about ‘rumored boyfriend’ Bruce Wayne?
His position was lower than that of the mayor, and there was nothing wrong with the mayor's order. He could only nod and let her leave with Afu, Gordon and a group of police officers.
An hour later, the old city police station.
In the police superintendent's office on the second floor, Harley was lying on a leather armchair, watching the TV news with relish.
Gotham News, her interview is being played above.
"Today is the day Mayor Quinn took office, but she did not indulge in banquets and interviews. After receiving the alarm call from Wayne's housekeeper, she immediately launched a raid on Hanhai Building."
She changed the channel, NBC Gotham, and it was still her news.
A scene of her "alone" fighting against a group of bandits.
"Ah, look!" the anchor shouted, "Such a heroic mayor, even a Hollywood movie wouldn't dare to film it like this, right?
But the reality is that the protagonist of our mayor movie is more brave!
Harley Quinn is the most powerful mayor in history!"
A smile appeared on Harley's lips, and she changed to the next channel, ABC Evening News.
The host said excitedly in a steady baritone: "The rich people on the Upper East Side would like to thank Mayor Quinn because she solved the 'Murder Case of the Hundreds of Nobles'.
The people of Gotham also have to thank Mayor Quinn for defeating the crazy conspirator who wanted to rule Gotham, Theo Galavan!
The American people also want to thank Mayor Quinn for letting people around the world know how good American mayors can be!"
"Hehehehe" Harley laughed out loud.
Just when she was about to change the channel again, Ah Fu, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help it anymore.
"Miss Quinn, it's now 8:15, and the young master has been out of contact for almost five hours. God, I just can't imagine how the young master can survive these five hours." He held his head and wailed.
"Am I doing nothing now?" Harley said lightly.
"You are watching TV." Ah Fu said dullly.
Harley said: "On the surface I am watching TV, but actually I am looking for the best time!
Galavan escaped, where could he go?
We must go back to the secret stronghold where Bruce is being held.
His sister Tabitha was not in Hanhai Building before, so she must be the one who kidnapped Bruce.
So, I have to give Galavan time to meet Tabitha."
"What does this have to do with your watching TV?" Ah Fu asked.
Harley said meaningfully: "On the way back to the police station, Gordon and Harvey Bullock interrogated the monk in the car, using fists and batons.
None of them knew where Galavan hid Bruce.
However, one of the monks revealed an interesting piece of news.
He said that when the police were about to surround Hanhai Building, they were ready to break out immediately, but the elder was persuaded by Galavan.
Galavan told the elders that the police did not have the key evidence, and if they rushed to kill the police, they would fall into my trap."
"I don't quite understand." Ah Fu said blankly.
"What would you think if I suddenly surrounded Wayne Manor with the police?"
"There must be some misunderstanding."
"What misunderstanding?"
"The police mistakenly thought we had committed a crime." Ah Fu said.
Harley said with a dull face: "What if the police surrounded the Lister Villa next to Wayne Manor?"
"Well, I would guess that Mr. Lister committed something and the police got conclusive evidence," Afu said thoughtfully.
"There is a mole in the police station. Tell Galavan in advance and let him know your trump card."
Harley sneered: "So, I have never trusted the GCPD!
For this afternoon's operation, I asked Barnes to mobilize more than 600 police officers.
Recruiting enough police force to suppress those two hundred monks is certainly one reason.
Another purpose is to repeat the Bali Street incident.
Do you know the inside story of the Bali Street incident?
In order to catch me in the urn, Chief Luo worked hard and was extremely cautious.
He first called the police officers together, took away their mobile phones, and did not allow anyone to leave the large group. Only when it was about to set off did he tell them the target of the operation.
As a result, guess what?
There are still police officers informing Sasse and Pulika through public phones."
"So, you deliberately revealed your identity to the police and asked them to deliver the message you wanted to deliver to Galavan?
Now, you deliberately watched TV here and asked Gordon to interrogate the monk, and also paralyzed Galavan again?"
Ah Fu looked at her with eyes full of shock and disbelief.
Harley smiled strangely, "On the outskirts of Gotham City, 'Good Luck Second Hand Store', my people are already waiting there. Once Galavan shows up, we"
Just looking at the phone number, Harley smiled proudly.
"Bo SS, prey appears." Deadshot's voice.
Harley hung up the phone and said with a smile: "Just wait a moment, I'll bring Bruce back right away."
"Take me with you, I have to guide you in front of other police officers!" Ah Fu took out the signal tracker and said excitedly.
"All right."
After leaving the superintendent's office, Harley immediately called Gordon, Harvey and more than 20 police detectives to the rooftop.
"Let's go to Wayne Manor."
She only said this, without any explanation, and took the lead in getting into the helicopter.
There were three helicopters in total, and they took off with a roar.
After leaving the police station, Harley asked Gordon and Harvey to confiscate the mobile phones of the police officers in their respective helicopters through the intercom.
Then, she looked at Ah Fu and said seriously: "Mr. Pennyworth, you were unwilling to trust the GCPD before and deliberately concealed the information that Bruce Wayne had a locator on the sole of his shoe. Now, can you tell us where he is?"
Bar?"
"What? Master Wayne still has locators on the soles of his shoes, why didn't you tell him earlier?" Harvey exclaimed.
Well, the communicator is on, and everyone on the three helicopters can hear Harley's voice.
Ah Fu first told the address, then took out the tracker with a flashing red dot on the screen, and explained: "In order not to be detected by the electronic scanner, the Young Master's sole locator will only be activated for half a minute at eight o'clock in the morning and evening.
That’s why it’s been delayed for so long, not because I don’t trust everyone.”
"Huh!" Harley snorted coldly, with a cold expression.
"This Ah Fu is so cunning." Harvey muttered.
Well, he and Gordon were actually kept in the dark.
It's just that Gordon already had doubts in his heart at this moment, but Harvey completely believed Harley and Alfred's double act.
The helicopter didn't need to take a detour, and it was very fast. It only took ten minutes to reach the sky above Lucky Second-hand Store.
A hundred meters away, the helicopter lowered its speed, and the twenty-two GCPD officers, plus Harley and Ah Fu, all descended to the ground along the zipline.
Then, the helicopter quickly pulled up again.
"What's the plan?" Ah Fu asked nervously.
"Gordon, you and Harvey will go in with me, and the rest will spread out and block the front and rear entrances and exits."
When the police officers were in their respective positions, Harvey, Gordon, and Alfred all looked at the mayor with questioning eyes.
Harley pulled down the owl glasses hanging on her forehead and sneered: "Follow me and charge."
"Charge?" The three of them were dumbfounded, "They have hostages!"
"Listen to me, this is the safest and most efficient way."
After saying that, Harley kicked open the door, raised her gun and blew the head of the gun-wielding thug behind the counter.
"Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling," a shrill alarm immediately sounded in the thrift store.
