"Who are you? Why are you here?" Officer Ge Yin was obviously very alert and confused, because the appearance of the two people in front of him looked really strange.
Batman and Batwoman looked at each other again, and Batwoman let go. However, the female police officer did not try to attack them, because she had discovered that they were surprisingly powerful, and they were not ordinary intruders.
Don't act rashly without a gun.
"We're here to investigate Batman."
"Batman? Who is that? Are you talking about that Spider-Boy who's been hanging around the streets lately?"
There is no doubt that this female police officer acted as if she was saying that there is no Batman in this world. Could it be that they got the world wrong? Did she just mention Spider-Man?
Batwoman doesn’t know the situation in another world, but Batman in the main universe does. Is this the opposite world?
But this is not right, because it is clearly stated in the news that Wayne Group once existed.
"It seems that this is a fused dream world." Batman from the main universe said: "The creator of the dream should have merged the memories of several different people to create this place."
"What are you here for?" the female police officer asked.
"What are you here for?" Batwoman asked, while crossing her arms and looking at the female police officer, she said, "I don't think a public official would need to appear in the file room at this time."
The female police officer was obviously offended and seemed a little embarrassed, because it was obvious. Since she was a police officer, she could come to the file room during working hours during the day. Why did she have to sneak around during off-duty hours at night?
This means that she must be doing something shady, but this does not negate the fact that the other party is an intruder.
"Listen, ma'am." Batman came out to smooth things over, "We don't mean to threaten you. We are just here to investigate something about Bruce Wayne."
The female police officer acted a little surprised, which made Batwoman observe that she was probably here because of Bruce Wayne.
Batwoman glanced at Batman, who paused, then reached out and took off his mask.
Looking at the familiar face in front of her, the female police officer was completely shocked.
She took a step back in a panic. Batman observed her movements and immediately stepped forward and said, "You know him, right? What is your relationship with him? Did he ask you to come here?"
Faced with a series of questioning, the other party was obviously panicked. Batman could tell that this female police officer was far less experienced than Gordon. She was probably Gordon's apprentice, so it was very possible that she had met Bruce Wayne.
"We come from another universe." Batman did not expose the fact that this was a dream, but said as simply as possible: "This universe is in some trouble now, and we are here to solve it. If you can provide us with
A little help would be great.”
The female police officer swallowed her saliva and said, "Yeah," although the vigilance in her eyes had not completely disappeared, it was obviously shaken.
"What do you want to know?"
"Everything about Bruce Wayne and what's going on in the city right now."
The female police officer took a deep breath, but did not start to tell. Instead, after staring at them for a while, she turned around and continued to rummage on the shelves in the archives room, and said: "I have never seen you, and neither have you.
Come on, if you want to know something, just find it yourself."
This is exactly what Batman wants. Listening to ordinary people's stories is inevitably not efficient enough and the information is not accurate enough. It would be great to have archives.
Searching archives is familiar to Batman. He and Batwoman worked together and soon figured out what was going on in this universe.
"It seems that Gordon's situation is very bad." Batman did not lower his voice intentionally. He glanced at the female police officer next to him and said: "You can only sit back and watch the crime happen, but you are completely unable to stop it, and you can't undo the tragedy. This is not good for a good man.
It’s a disaster for the police.”
Batwoman saw Ge Yin's eyes turned red. She probably knew better than anyone else how bad Gordon's situation was now.
Ge Yin slowly squatted down, seemingly unable to hold on anymore due to days of work and emotional impact. Batwoman walked over and patted her on the shoulder and said, "If it weren't for an accident, you wouldn't be here. Can you tell me?"
What are you looking for here?"
The female police officer squatted there for a while with her eyes closed, and then said in a slightly hoarse voice: "...that case that year."
"Which one?" Batman asked.
"The attack on James Gordon." Ge Yin seemed to suddenly think of something and said quickly: "Gordon, who was the police chief at the time, was shot in an alley on his way home.
Help the young Bruce Wayne take over the Wayne family legacy, so outsiders speculate that the killers were sent by shareholders who wanted to compete for shares and annex the Wayne Group."
"Gordon was shot twice, one of which injured his spine, leaving him almost paralyzed and bedridden. More than ten years later, almost everyone has forgotten about this outstanding police chief.
There are only some sighs left as old things become old.”
Batman frowned deeply. As Bruce Wayne himself, he knew what was going on back then better than anyone else.
First of all, the Waynes were not unaware of their own deaths. The situation at that time had reached a very dangerous situation, and they had already prepared backup plans.
So when they died, those greedy shareholders failed to make any big waves, and all the inheritance and shares were smoothly handed over to Bruce Jr., without anyone being able to interfere.
Secondly, little Bruce himself doesn't care about those clowns. His own abilities are far beyond ordinary people, and he doesn't take this level of business war seriously.
And there were indeed many people who helped him at that time. After all, he was a minor at that time and it was difficult to go through various legal procedures. It is not unreasonable for Batman to have a good impression of people from these professions such as police, doctors, and lawyers.
When he fell into the most isolated moment in his life, it was these people who helped him.
Assuming that the Bruce Wayne of this universe is not a super genius, then he may indeed need external help to secure his inheritance. Otherwise, he will be like a child holding money to get through the busy market, and losses are certain.
"Where is Gordon now?" Batman asked: "If I'm not mistaken, he asked you to re-investigate the case back then, right? I think I can provide help in this regard, but I have to meet him first."
The female police officer shook her head and said, "No, this is a secret investigation and no one can know about it."
"Of course, I understand that those hyenas who took a piece of meat from this respectable Sheriff will not allow him to send them to jail, so at least let me meet Bruce, I think I can help him make better use of it.
With the resources at his disposal, he can find out the real culprit who hurt Gordon back then."
The female police officer was obviously taken aback, and she instinctively replied: "Resources, what resources?"
"The inheritance of the Waynes." Batman said: "Even if he failed to keep the shares of the Wayne Group and lost almost all of his real estate, the Waynes had a lot of savings back then, and their personal accounts were at least several million.
U.S. dollars, as well as various trusts, real estate, and vehicles. Even if he didn't perform value preservation and investment work, this is not a small sum of money."
Ge Yin frowned deeply, shook her head, looked at Batman and said, "No, now Bruce is renting a house with Gordon, and he has to work three jobs to support the two of them."
"Absurd." Batwoman commented: "Where are Thomas and Martha's private property? To say the least, where is my mother's dowry? When she married from the Kane family, my grandfather and grandmother gave her two
There is a building and a commercial street facade.”
"My parents died at the same time. I am the only heir. I don't have any relatives or friends who have the right to claim inheritance. Where is the inheritance?"
"I...I don't know." Ge Yin shook her head. This female police officer was from a civilian background and obviously didn't know much about these things.
Batwoman raised her eyes and glanced at Batman, immediately realizing there was something wrong.
"Show us the files." Batwoman said, "We need all the files on that case now."
Ge Yin had no choice but to hand them the file she had just found. The two of them read it quickly and looked up at each other at the same time, clearly seeing the confusion in the other's eyes.
"There are too many doubts." Batman stared at the file and said, "Let's not talk about the external environment. Judging from Gordon's description, he saw the blurry figure of the killer, and then he got the first shot and fell to the ground.
"
"If the murderer wanted to fire a second shot, he would have to adjust the trajectory because the postures of a standing person and a lying person are different. Gordon was fully capable of seizing this short two seconds to draw a gun and shoot, but he just
He fell to the ground like this, did nothing, and allowed the other party to fire the second shot."
"Could it be..." Ge Yin wanted to say that Gordon couldn't draw the gun or didn't react because of the pain of being shot, but she couldn't convince herself that Gordon was a well-trained soldier.
The police are very strong-willed and will never miss any opportunity to catch the murderer.
If there was even the slightest chance of shooting the murderer while he was falling to the ground and preventing him from running away, Gordon would definitely do it, and he had the ability to do it.
"You can also see where he was shot." Batman pointed at the image on the file and said: "The left side of his abdomen does not affect the use of his right hand, and Gordon does not have the habit of putting a gun behind his back. The moment he fell to the ground
, there was absolutely no time to draw the gun and shoot.”
"Unless he doesn't want to do it," Batwoman said.
"It was the second shot that paralyzed Gordon." Batman looked at the file and continued: "What reason did he have for not shooting the murderer?"
"I think we should still go meet Bruce." Batwoman said: "At least he was an eyewitness of that period, we..."
"No." Ge Yin raised her voice and interrupted them. Both of their eyes fell on her. Ge Yin emphasized: "Gordon won't let me tell anyone about the case I'm investigating. It's anyone."
, including Bruce Wayne."
"Is that what he told you?"
"certainly."
Batman and Batwoman paused at the same time, because they obviously realized the same thing. They looked at each other, and both saw incredulity in the other's eyes.
