Li Erpang, Su Xiaosu, and Zhu Yun'er didn't seem to cause any big trouble.
Walking on the road, Gotham City seemed to have regained its peaceful and warm atmosphere.
What a Gotham City with simple folk customs.
But the dark clouds above the head always make people feel like there is a huge hand pressing down on the sky of Gotham City, giving people a vague sense of suffocation that makes them unable to breathe.
After planting the bomb at the "crime site", Yi Lin found the most convenient route and came to the headquarters of GBC Broadcasting Company.
The process went very smoothly.
I didn't encounter any terrible accidents.
After all, the only person who really came face to face with Yi Lin was James Gordon Jr.
He didn't immediately take out his cell phone to take pictures.
Yi Lin also always wears an elegant gentleman's hat, habitually avoiding the camera to capture his face.
So even though he is now a "famous" rising star villain in Gotham City, no arrest warrant has been issued yet. In fact, what James Gordon Jr. doesn't know is that when Yi Lin first robbed paper and pens, he did it for excitement
The two policemen once deliberately smiled at the camera. But little Gordon never mentioned this matter. At first, the two "excellent" policemen also forgot about it, otherwise they might cause Yi Lin a little more trouble...
…It’s just a little bit, it’s not really important.
Walking on the road, Yi Lin looked like an elegant nobleman, but many blond beauties gave him very "hot" looks.
While at the TV station, Yi Rin left a notice letter and turned around and left.
Didn't stay too long.
He would never be able to do something like Pan Zhengyi, who could directly break into the innermost parts of GBC.
It makes no sense after all.
——Blow it up and that’s it.
Of course, in addition to explosions, Yi Lin is also thinking about other possible ways to quickly obtain a large amount of "sin points".
This... we must refer to the practices of the older generation of villains.
The puzzle has been sent.
The bomb has also been installed.
While there was still time, Yi Lin took a taxi and went directly to the outskirts of the city.
——The taxi was a Overlord car.
After crossing the Robert H. Kane Memorial Bridge, Yi Lin spent about 40 minutes arriving at the site of Wayne Manor, located north of Gotham City.
What is a heritage site?
The former Wayne Manor is in ruins.
There is no record of this incident in "Batman Legends".
After all, the person who wrote the book didn't know that Bruce Wayne was Batman.
Yi Lin heard this fact from Fatty.
Moreover, even if Bruce Wayne holds a press conference openly and says: "I, Bruce Wayne, Batman!"
It is estimated that all reporters will have the same reaction——
"Look! Our rich and humorous Mr. Bruce Wayne, the richest man in Gotham, is joking again!"
Who the hell believes it!
So, until now, twenty years after Batman disappeared, no one knows that Bruce Wayne, the old driver who still wanders among the flowers every day, is the famous Batman back then.
Wayne Manor has become a tourist attraction.
But it's not too busy.
When Yi Lin arrived here, several foreign tourists were taking photos happily.
As for the Gotham natives?
I have long been tired of watching it in the past twenty years, and there is nothing interesting to watch in the first place.
The huge manor ruins are now open to everyone.
There are no special protective measures.
After all, it's really just an ordinary ruin.
According to Yi Lin's estimation, even if a few TNT bombs are wasted to blow up the place even more, it won't earn much sin points.
Therefore, Yi Lin was too lazy to take action.
After avoiding the eyes of other tourists, Yi Lin found a deserted place and released Bai Xiaoyi.
"Why me again!"
After the transparent spirit Bai Xiaoyi came out, he glared at Yi Lin angrily.
After many applications, the experience value of the spirit-enchanted weapon Blood Jasmine has also increased a lot.
It is estimated that it will be upgraded from E-level to D-level soon.
The current corresponding change is that Bai Xiaoyi's originally almost transparent spiritual body seems to be slightly more solid than before.
But if you don't distinguish carefully, you may not be able to tell it at a glance.
Perhaps after upgrading, the enchanted weapons will have many more practical functions.
Yi Lin was looking forward to it.
"Have any opinions?" Yi Lin glanced at Bai Xiaoyi in the air.
"Hmph!" Bai Xiaoyi's delicate nose twitched slightly and she let out a soft hum.
"Believe it or not, I will call you Wangcai from now on?"
"..."
"Come on, Xiaobai, go take a look underground."
"..."
Why do I always have tears in my eyes?
Because I hate my master so deeply!
Although Bai Xiaoyi was a little reluctant.
She was a little confused as to why the master always called her instead of "Mother".
But in order to avoid being called "prosperous", Bai Xiaoyi could only silently go underground.
Compared with "Wangcai"... "Xiaobai" sounds ten thousand times more beautiful!
When Bai Xiaoyi sank into the ground, Yi Lin also closed her eyes and switched to "Bai Xiaoyi's" vision.
His current mental attributes cannot fully exert the full effect of "psychic power".
It's like the mental lock has only been loosened a little, but not completely unlocked.
The reason should be...the attributes are not enough.
He will have many applications for his abilities in this area in the future, but he will not be able to display them.
A mere 21 meters of telekinesis detection is too short.
The "vision" of the spirit body is different from that of Yilin as a human being, and is more similar to the existence of "reception".
They have no retina and are not affected by light.
1 minute later——
A huge hole suddenly appeared "in front of" Yi Lin.
"Sure enough, is this the legendary Batcave?"
Li Erpang did not deceive him on this point.
In the Batcave, Bai Xiaoyi walked around the cave. In the corner of the Batcave, there was an elevator that had been damaged beyond use. It seemed to be the passage used by Bruce Wayne to "transform" in the past.
Apart from the old elevator, there is nothing special here.
Gradually, a thin layer of sweat formed on Yi Lin's forehead.
As Bai Xiaoyi gets farther and farther away from him, the consumption of spiritual energy becomes more intense.
"return!"
After confirming that nothing was discovered, Yi Lin summoned Bai Xiaoyi back.
Bai Xiaoyi returned to Yi Lin's body with an unhappy look on her face. Yi Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief. After spending more than half of her spiritual energy, she finally began to recover slowly.
"Really not?"
Yi Lin's expression was calm.
There weren’t many surprises about the empty Batcave.
This Gotham City has long deviated from the trajectory Li Erpang knew and has become beyond recognition.
It feels like...there's a lot wrong.
Although Yi Lin has some clues, due to lack of information, she is still unable to completely smooth out the entire plot structure.
This trip to Wayne Manor, Yi Lin just stopped by to confirm some of her ideas.
Yi Lin actually didn't expect much to find the equipment left behind by Batman in the Batcave.
If it could be found... Yi Lin actually thought it was a big pit.
The kind that traps people without burying their bodies.
…
…
"Fuck!"
Just when gbc issued a city-wide broadcast.
Another part of Gotham City.
In a public restroom.
Women's toilet.
Li Erpang, who was hiding silently in the toilet cubicle, couldn't help but curse when he heard the contents of the city-wide broadcast!
Forgive me for being uneducated, fat man, he can take the world by saying "F*ck".
I was tricked by that kid again!
At first, Li Erpang thought that the guy was acting too high-profile and weird, but after thinking for a moment, he realized what he was doing.
Was that kid's brain damaged by a shovel?
Why are there pitfalls everywhere!
When Li Erpang cursed loudly.
The panicked voices of several women came from the nearby toilet.
As soon as Li Erpang saw that he had broken into the women's restroom and was exposed, he picked up his pants and ran out in a panic.
[Successfully broke into the women's restroom and obtained a crime score of 2!]
[Cause a commotion after breaking into the women's restroom, gain a crime value of 1! 】
Well, this wave is not a loss.
Li Erpang took a bite of the chicken leg bitterly. It had just been snatched and it was still hot.
After coming out of the women's room, Li Erpang gnawed on a chicken leg and looked around. He wondered whether it was because Chief Gordon was hospitalized due to cerebral hemorrhage. The search for criminals in Gotham City was not very intensive today.
The group of good citizens who chased the fat man for eighteen streets yesterday are not in this area today.
"It's safe for now..."
Li Erpang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, gnawed the chicken legs in his hand three times, threw the chicken bones on the ground, patted his bulging belly, burped, and began to think about the next step.
[Throwing trash everywhere in Gotham City will earn you a Sin Point of 1!]
"..."
"Ah - spit!"
[Spitting everywhere in Gotham City will earn you a crime value of 1!]
"..."
Is this how the sin value is originally calculated?
Human life in Gotham City is so worthless!
Li Erpang seems to have discovered a new way to increase points.
But he didn't brush it off.
According to this method of brushing, if he really wants to brush up to 1 million sin points, his saliva will have already dried up before the sin points are fully brushed.
Not good value for money.
"That boy——"
"Fuck ah ah ah -"
Li Erpang looked up to the sky and roared.
He finally understands now.
Why was Yi Lin so willing to give up the key props for "sin value", the TNT bomb?
Although it is a transaction, everyone knows that in this second main mission, if you want to earn a large amount of crime points in a short time and become a future star in Gotham City, just killing people is not efficient enough.
How can you fill up that huge pit of 1 million with those mosquito legs of about 10 o'clock?
Just watching Yi Lin blow up two places casually, she earned 100,000... Anyone who is 84 stupid will probably know that explosion is the correct way to start the second main mission.
Explosion is the romance of men!
but--
However, on the first night, Yi Lin gained a reputation as a "riddle gentleman".
At first, Fatty was a little confused as to why Yi Lin would use such a complicated warning method to commit crimes in Gotham.
Now he understands.
Yi Lin is basically imitating the behavior of Gotham's past villains.
Madness.
Disordered.
But full of charm.
This is the tone that can really make Gotham go crazy!
This is also the true meaning of the phrase "restoring Gotham to its former glory" in the main mission description!
I want to be a charming villain!
In Gotham City, which villain doesn’t have many fans?
The legendary Joker is Gotham’s biggest superstar!
Moreover, now that Yi Lin has issued a crime notice in advance, no matter when Fatty and others explode, where they explode, or in what posture they explode, the crime value will most likely fall on Yi Lin's head in the end!
Everyone will think that this is the crime of the "Riddle Gentleman"!
"unless--"
Li Erpang suddenly lowered his head and patted his belly.
Duang.
The q bullet is powerful.
"etc."
Student Li Erpang suddenly had a brilliant idea.
Very very wonderful.
…
…
Gotham City.
Because the Riddle Gentleman has a riddle that no one can solve, the whole place is in a state of excitement.
Everyone knows the riddle of the Riddle Gentleman.
But no one can guess it.
After little James Gordon was discharged from the hospital, he suddenly regretted not taking a photo of that damn guy at the top of the bell tower.
Maybe I should have just fired without saying anything?
Even if he issued a wanted warrant now, he could only describe a black tuxedo and a gentleman's hat.
But in Gotham City, this kind of attire is the standard suit used by many male nobles when going out to flirt with girls. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of people in the vast sea of people. Based on this alone, it is difficult to spot the "Riddle Gentleman".
What little James Gordon didn't know was that even if the "Riddle Gentleman" was walking near him, he might not notice it.
Furthermore, little James Gordon still does not understand how the Riddle Gentleman disappeared before his eyes like magic at the top of the bell tower that day.
There is mystery everywhere.
【15:00】
Looking down at his watch, little James Gordon felt even more anxious.
There is not much time.
He had already written down the riddle played on the gbc channel on paper.
[I will accompany the last ray of sunshine, soar in the sea of knowledge, and steal the life of the King of Gotham. Then...shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" in there arrears.
Fall, all beasts attack, witness the fireworks in Gotham together.】
He took out the puzzle and looked at it carefully.
"First of all, the time... It seems that it is most likely after dusk. The sunset in Gotham is around 18:00. Could it be that time?"
"The Sea of Knowledge...could it be...the Gotham City Public Library?"
Soon, James Gordon Jr. gave up on this foolish idea.
He had already been deceived once.
There were almost no useless sentences in that guy's riddles.
In other words, only by deciphering each sentence can we find out where the "Riddle Gentleman" actually committed the crime.
etc.
Could it be that this time, the riddle gentleman guessed his thoughts and deliberately made things mysterious?
This may not be possible.
"shit!"
Little James Gordon wanted to tear up the note in his hand, swallow it from his mouth and pull it out from underneath.
——To relieve the hatred in my heart.
…
…
Rooftop of Wayne Tower.
Bruce Wayne was sitting on the bedside, wrapped in a bath towel.
There is a bottle of red wine beside it.
It's still daytime.
There was a sleeping girl lying on the round bed, with her back to Bruce, and the quilt had a seductive curve.
——Ah, this curvature is really white, ah no, this whiteness is really high.
There are actually two girls.
Of course, this is not important.
Bruce is now very clear-headed and calm.
Not a single thought.
——After all, we just finished.
He frowned, also thinking about the puzzle.
"Gotham Public Library?"
"s·t·a·r laboratory?"
"Or Gotham Zoo?"
"The King of Gotham...heh, does he want to kill old Gordon?"
Among the puzzles, Bruce read several keys.
It's actually quite obvious.
But subconsciously, combined with the previous puzzle, his keen intuition told Bruce that things were not that simple.
This riddle gentleman is more difficult to deal with than the Riddler.
The Riddler's personality... likes to show off.
If he sees that others can't guess his riddle, the Riddler can't help but reveal a little "little hint" to show his wisdom that is far beyond ordinary people.
This is how Batman used to defeat the Riddler.
But the Riddle Gentleman is different.
silence.
calm.
grace.
And... by any means necessary.
The Riddler once said: "You don't understand... I really don't want to leave you any clues. I really don't want to go back to Arkham Asylum anymore. But I still left you a clue. So,
I...I had to go back there. Because I might need help. I...I might actually be crazy."
Edward the Riddler left clues to his crimes because he had to.
But this Edward Lin, on the contrary, hopes that no one can guess his riddle so that his crime can go smoothly.
So what is the meaning of his riddle...?
Instead, Bruce thought of something deeper.
Beyond the puzzle itself.
"Hey, baby~"
Suddenly, four snow-white arms wrapped around Bruce.
"I'm busy……"
"Bruce, honey, we have some ideas..."
"..."
Bruce had some "last resort" and could only put on the "mask" again.
After all, he is now Bruce Wayne, the richest man in the world!
…
…
Gotham City West.
Gotham University.
【17:58】
Not long after school.
Students wearing short skirts, long legs, and long blond wavy hair were happily enjoying their time after class and discussing where to go for fun tonight.
"Do you think those 'criminals' will show up tonight?"
"I guess so?"
"That riddle gentleman is so handsome! I really want to see him in person!"
"Bah! Nymphomaniac, what will you do if you meet the riddle gentleman?"
"Of course it's...hehehe...what you do when you have sex!"
"And after that?"
"Kill him! He is a criminal! A capital crime!"
"It's so romantic to let the riddle gentleman die on the bed——"
Several female students who exuded the sour smell of youth were giggling on the road as they walked.
On Gotham University Plaza.
There is a huge statue nine meters high.
This statue is none other than the mayor of Gotham City, James Gordon.
——"Portrait of the Great Gordon".
It is also one of Gotham's famous landmarks.
Every year, many tourists from outside Gotham City come to Gotham University specifically to take photos with the "Gordon Statue."
The construction of this great statue began after Mayor Gordon took office, and it is now nearly 20 years old.
sunset.
It is about to land from the mountains to the west.
Only the last glimmer of stubbornness was faintly revealed.
Under the golden sunset, the "Statue of the Great Gordon" seemed to be covered with a layer of sacred light, making the students passing by couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Wow!"
At this time, some photographers saw this scene and couldn't help but snap photos.
【18:00】.
boom!
There was a loud noise.
The statue of Gordon was torn apart in the blink of an eye in the violent waves of the explosion.
In the blink of an eye, it became the dust of history.
…
…
"The great statue of Watt Gordon was blown up???"
The moment he received the notification, little James Gordon was confused.
With his brain almost in a state of panic, he put down the phone.
Why?
Why Gotham University?
Why Gordon the Great?
The warning notice originally issued by the Riddle Gentleman has already spread throughout Gotham.
Shortly after the "Gordon Magnificent Statue" exploded, the GBC immediately sent reporters to collect photos, which then made headlines in Gotham at the speed of light.
"Shocked! The "Gordon the Great" statue at Gotham University exploded! Exploded! Exploded!"
"Terrible! Damn, ruthless! The Riddle Gentleman has once again successfully completed his foretelling crime!"
"We are now asking relevant authoritative experts to thoroughly interpret the mysterious riddle left by the 'Riddle Gentleman' for us based on this explosion of the 'Statue of Gordon'..."
Gotham is gradually filled with a strange atmosphere.
【18:30】.
Bruce felt refreshed.
He had a bird's-eye view of Gotham from Wayne Tower, and suddenly noticed a plume of smoke rising from the west.
"Wait a minute, that's not an industrial area over there..."
Bruce Wayne frowned and turned on the TV.
The news that "The Riddle Gentleman successfully detonated the statue of Gordon" instantly confused Bruce's face.
"Gordon the Great?"
Bruce Wayne closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
A few minutes later, he directly dialed the number he hadn't called in a long time.
Over the years, he rarely took the initiative to contact Gordon Sr.
"Old man, is there something you're not telling me about that puzzle?"
"What's missing? What do you mean?"
Bruce Wayne said in a deep voice: "Sign, what is that guy's signature!"
"1,2,3... Yours sincerely, the busy 'Riddle Gentleman' Edward Lin."
