The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

In a small bar on the edge of the affluent area in the southern part of Gotham City, Schiller squeezed a little lemon juice into the gin he had mixed. He picked up the glass and said to Gordon: Congratulations, detective, now at least You can do what you want.

Bruce on the opposite side of the round table also raised his glass, and Harvey raised his glass and said, It's really time to celebrate, you are the most upright policeman I've ever seen.

The four of them touched their glasses, and Gordon took a sip of the wine. His face turned red, whether it was excitement or the effect of alcohol, he said, The more this happens, the more I know I'm still far behind.

Improvement is always good, Bruce said.

Schiller smiled, covered his mouth with his wine glass, and said, Really? It seems that our innocent little boy has made great progress recently?

Bruce put down his glass, and he said, I remember Professor you once said that you have no advice for my private love life.

But I also reminded you that you'd better be careful of your kidneys. I mean protect your kidneys. I don't mean just keep them from getting knives. The scenery on Tricker Street is really good. The neon lights there are all over the east coast. very famous……

Gordon looked back and forth between the two of them, then raised his eyebrows and said, What charades are you playing?

It's nothing, I just advise you, don't meddle in other people's business in the future, some people are very confident in their kidney function.

Gordon understood this, he said: It seems that Bruce has a rich emotional life recently.

Schiller put down his glass and said with a smile, On the contrary.

Harvey knew something inside. He touched Bruce with his arm and said, It seems that you and the girl you mentioned are progressing quickly, how is it? You have established a relationship?

Gordon immediately pricked up his ears, Bruce touched his temple, looked at the eyes of the three people watching the excitement, he said: Don't do this, don't do this, what does it matter? That's my private matter, The theme of our party today is to celebrate Gordon's promotion.

I don't think the position of the team leader of the Gotham Police Department is as worthy of celebration as our richest man in the world has a new girlfriend, Gordon said.

That's still a bit of an exaggeration, after all, the richest man in the world has too many girlfriends, Schiller said.

But the team leader of the police station is just like an ordinary policeman, useless. Gordon laughed at himself.

Bruce was so frustrated by them that he said, Well, I'll admit, yes, I fell in love with a girl... no, not in that way, not because of her pretty face and figure... oh, of course she Beautiful and in great shape, but not…”

Gordon and Harvey look like you don't need to explain, Harvey also said: At your age, I like any girl, I don't think it's because of their appearance, but now I know that sentence is fart , Men all over the world are farting when they say this.”

Gordon tugged on his tie. He said, Could it be that there was a girl who really moved Bruce? Then I'd like to see who he is.

Bruce said: She is not really special, just a girl from the slums, like all ordinary girls, like shiny gems and jewelry, the dream is to have a castle full of gems.

Do you prefer German or French castles? Schiller asked, I think Neuschwanstein Castle is good, how about buying it?

Bruce flicked his wine glass unbearably, and he said: I'm not soaking her! I'm serious, don't look at me like that, I admit that I used to be a little...well, not a little...but I really intend to marry her...

You are not facing her now, so you don't have to say these beautiful words.

Schiller quickly interrupted Bruce's flag, can anyone say this sentence?

But it doesn't really matter, anyway, Batman is the protagonist, so it shouldn't be a big problem for the protagonist to say this.

Bruce took a sip of his drink, and he was rarely excited. He said: We have indeed established a relationship, and we have been dating for several nights in a row. She gave me a very beautiful gem.

What about you? Didn't you get her something? Harvey asked.

I'm thinking, Bruce said.

That's a bit of a faux pas, Harvey said. Are you looking down on her ghetto origin? I'll be honest, not everyone is as lucky as you, and I don't think class is a barrier to love, at least for you. ...

Of course I don't think so.

The thing is, if you don't hurry up and give her a gift that proves her heart, she might think so, Schiller said. Any girl from a slum who falls in love with the richest man in the world will probably not be very confident.

Okay. Bruce said: What do you think I should give her? I can't think of it after thinking about it for a long time.

Harvey doesn't know the true face of Catwoman, because he doesn't know that Bruce is Batman, let alone the story between them.

But Schiller is well aware of this.

Schiller said, How about a string of pearls?

Bruce tightened his grip on the wine glass. He took a sip and said, I have to admit, I don't like pearl necklaces very much, but if she likes them, then I will definitely give her the best one.

After the party, Schiller went back to his apartment and cleaned it up, except for the smell of alcohol.

Schiller shuttled between DC and Marvel for no reason. After coming to DC, on the one hand, he wanted to wait for the plot of Marvel to go by himself, and on the other hand, he also wanted to finish the matter here on time.

He is a fairly cautious person, and he wants everything to have its beginning and end. Although the old headmaster did not go to prison, he was somewhat surprised, but the purpose of his original return was to clean up the beginning and end of the last Jonathan case.

The old principal is now Batman's target, and Schiller doesn't plan to intervene for the time being, but there is one more person, that is the missing Director Victor.

Schiller knew that Sal Maroney should have kidnapped him. Even so, Maroney might not have killed him. A former police chief can get a lot of useful information out of his mouth. Maroney With such a huge loss, he will not let Victor die easily unless he can get his money back.

But Schiller had to get rid of Victor.

In the early days of the Jonathan case, he was not capable enough, and when he stole the fear gas, he only used the simplest method, that is, burglary, but at that time he couldn't do it completely without traces, even though he wiped away 99% of the traces, but He still wants to kill the remaining 1% possibility of being discovered.

Victor had entered the evidence room more than once in order to reverse the case for Jonathan. This old policeman was the only one who could expose Schiller's theft of the fear gas.

You know, after Jonathan entered the lunatic asylum, the most traditional version of the fear gas concentrate has been out of print, but due to the huge loss of Maroni, many people in the gang are eyeing this weapon. Once someone reveals who it is Steal the fear gas, and the mob will swarm over like sharks that smell meat.

Schiller was going to visit Maroney, but before that, he was approached by an unexpected person.

Schiller followed a man in black into the car, and a man in a suit sitting in front said, Professor Schiller, you don't have to be afraid. The godfather asked you to go there just because he needs your help.

The extended luxury car soon arrived at a manor not far from the southern area. Schiller followed the guide and walked in. The decoration of the manor was very old-fashioned. After he entered, he went up to the third floor, and the guide knocked on the door , A deep voice came from inside: Please come in.

Schiller went in, and he saw a tall man, or old man, with silver-gray hair, dressed in a decent suit and tie, with a red poppy pinned in his breast pocket. An aura of calmness and prestige.

He fumbled for the ring on his hand and said to Schiller, Professor Rodriguez, I'm sorry to disturb you. I asked you to come because I need your help.

It is an honor to serve you, Your Excellency Falcone.

Schiller walked over and was separated from Falcone by a table. Behind him was a floor-to-ceiling window, and two bodyguards in black stood on both sides.

Falcone didn't say anything, he nodded, and then said directly: I have a son, he is not young this year, my family and business need him to inherit, I hope to hire you Be his governess.

Without waiting for Schiller to ask a question, Falcone said, His previous tutor, who was shot three times in the chest, never recovered, and I heard that you could even get Bruce Wayne to turn in homework on time, Should be a good candidate for a teacher.

Of course, I'm not threatening you. I know you caused a little trouble in Metropolis. Some people found this place following the smell, but they should all be in the gutter by now.

This is my sincerity, how?

Schiller looked at Falcone. He was more like the portrayal of the gang leader in the early days of DC Comics. Falcone's source of inspiration was Corleone among the godfathers, the character portrayed by Marlon Brando.

Now it seems that compared to the image of Falcone in a jacket and weird sunglasses shown in movies and TV shows, this old man is indeed more like the family godfather who rules Gotham's huge gang power.

Okay, but I have one more request.

The previous police chief disappeared... Schiller said.

You want to find him?

No, I want to kill him.

Falcone sat down, took a puff of a cigar handed to him by the person next to him, exhaled the smoke, and said slowly, Victor... I know him, a little clever old liar, you have a relationship with him What grudge?

I think, in Gotham, you don't have to have hatred to kill people.

Falcone smiled while holding the cigar, and said, It seems that you will indeed be a good teacher.

In this work, Falcone refers to the setting of the early DC comics. It can be understood as the godfather of Corleone in Gotham City. It is enough to directly fill in the image of Marlon Brando. Anyway, it was drawn according to the godfather at the beginning.
