Chapter 542 11. Gotham-Night Banquet --- Add more updates for QAQ Hui Brothers 【5/14】

Dusk is the most beautiful scenery in a day. It is the buffer between day and night. It expresses the last ray of light in the sky so magnificently, just like the picture scroll carefully made by the creator. No matter how busy or tired you are, you can take a look at the dusk , You can also feel the beauty from the heart.

But this beauty is very short-lived. The girls in beautiful skirts chirped and sat in the luxury car of the Devil Gang. Mei, who didn't like wearing skirts, wore a well-fitting lady's suit. She was mainly responsible for driving. Under the urging of Catherine, The car drove out of the Cyber ​​Villa, carrying a group of little girls, Selena, the hostess of the Cyber ​​Villa, and Felicity, a senior housekeeper who stayed at home for almost 24 hours, and headed towards Gotham. Drive to the hotel in the city center.

Old friend Jim Gordon is going to hold an early birthday party for his returned children. This is a very rare party, and they don't want to miss it.

But these girls chatting about fashion and daily life obviously don't know that in another place, their dearest backbone is fighting desperately. Of course, the battlefield is a place where men fight and kill, so let women Stay away from there.

"Hey Gordon, you're here to pick us up yourself!"

In front of a not-so-luxurious hotel, Catherine stepped out of the extended car, and immediately saw Gordon standing at the entrance of the hotel. This police chief changed into a suit of decent clothes for the first time today, and his pale hair was combed neatly. Qi, he has also carefully packed up and dressed, and he looks like he is ten years younger. You know, after Gordon suffered that terrible day, he is a middle-aged man in his 40s. Just looking at his appearance, he is 60 years old. It looks like how old it is.

"You look so cool today! Uncle Gordon!"

Emma and Clarice circled Gordon twice and joked: "If you were 10 years younger, I would have chased you."

"Alright, alright, girls, let's go in."

Gordon smiled unnaturally, of course, being teased by a group of young and beautiful little girls, an honest person like him would naturally not know how to deal with it, so no one paid attention to Gordon's clenched fists, and A trace of pain flashed in his eyes from time to time.

"You guys go first, I have booked the entire third floor of the hotel, and I have to pick up little Barbara and her brother."

Gordon opened his sleeves, glanced at the watch on his wrist, then smiled at Selena and May in a very decent way, and said softly:

"Wait a minute, they should be off the plane soon."

"Oh, I see...you want to surprise them, don't you!"

Catherine laughed and took Emma and Clarice's hands, and led them into the newly decorated hotel, while Gordon exhorted Selena outside:

"I also invited the mayor, the heads of most departments of the city hall, and some directors of Wayne Industries. Recently, they are discussing the matter of restricting the activities of the devil gang. I think you should help Seber with the help of this banquet." Improve your relationship with them."

Selena froze for a moment, then nodded with a smile on her face, and thanked Gordon in a low voice:

"I am sorry to trouble you, Mr. Gordon."

"fine."

Gordon waved his hand, turned and walked to his car, opened the car door, looked back at Selena and May, and said with a smile: "Serber is also my loyal friend, isn't it?"

Watching Gordon leave, Selena breathed a sigh of relief, took May's arm, and said in her ear:

"These entertainments are really annoying. I thought it was a simple family dinner."

Mei didn't answer right away, she watched Gordon's car disappearing around the corner in confusion, her brows were slightly frowned, the instinct of a level 8 agent was telling her that the matter didn't seem simple, but she thought about it for a while , but did not find any source of uneasiness.

"What's wrong? Mei, is there something wrong?"

Wearing a long red dress and dressed very formally, Felicity, who was a bit sleepy, walked up slowly and took Mei's other arm. She asked curiously, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much."

Mei shook her head, reached out and touched the pistol on her waist, breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled at the other two girls: "Come on, let's go in."

The moment she walked into the hall, looking at the mountain of wine glasses and the dignitaries and dignitaries in the banquet hall in front of her, a trace of disgust flashed across Selena's face, but it disappeared in an instant. Two companions said:

"Look, this is the upper class society of Gotham. I hated this kind of occasion very much back then. Now I thought I would get used to it, but when I actually stood here, I realized that I still hate it."

"It's a good thing."

Mei reached out and took two glasses of wine from the plate dragged by the waiter in front of her, handed one to Selina, and winked at her:

"Believe me."

The three women stepped into the crowd, all of them were high-ranking officials or dignitaries they had never seen before, and even the directors of Wayne Industries were not the most dazzling people among them, Gordon was not lying, this The gold content of a banquet is definitely high enough, and anyone who can enter it is an important figure in a certain link and industry in Gotham.

However, when these big men saw Selena and Mei, they always took the initiative to come forward to say hello and clink glasses. After the important occasion, anyone who is a little sensitive knows that the relationship between these two women and the leader of the devil gang is unusual.

There are also rumors that one of them will become the hostess of the increasingly prosperous Devil Gang. A group worth a quarter of the total income of Gotham City Hall, no matter how courteous it is, is enough.

In fact, no matter what these black and white big shots think in their hearts and how they evaluate the Devil Gang, they all have to admit that that faction and their master have become an inseparable part of Gotham. In other words, in the external situation, they are already "one of our own".

"Miss Selena, thank you for the necklace you gave my daughter last time."

The most honorable person present, Mayor Nestor, who was surrounded by a group of people, walked over with a smile, greeted some people, then raised the cup in his hand to Selena, and said with a smile:

"She told me she loved that necklace, it was the best gift she ever got for her 20th birthday, you really have great taste."

"I'm also honored that she would like it."

Selena showed a very decent smile, she took a sip of her wine and said softly:

"Actually, I'm planning to invite your daughter to my house. After talking with her last time, I found that she has a very deep research on jewelry. I want to ask her to taste my jewelry. You know, Saber and him My sister is not a person who pays attention to these things, chatting with him is always boring, my life circle urgently needs a young man who is elegant enough like your daughter."

Hearing this, the smile on Mayor Nestor's face became wider. He pondered for a moment, then nodded:

"Then I will ask her mother to bring her to visit some other day. In fact, she and little Catherine are also very good friends."

"Serber and I are very welcome."

Selena also smiled and said: "I believe that you and your family will become our best friends and partners."

Yes, everyone in this banquet is wearing a mask, that is definitely not what they really want to say, but they will say it in a very sincere manner without appearing hypocritical.

But whether it is for Mayor Nestor or the Devil Gang, this is a win-win relationship. The mayor needs the Devil Gang to continue to maintain the prosperity and development of the dock area, and the Devil Gang needs the entire city hall to be present. Some parties turn a blind eye, especially when the Mexican War and the Devil Gang are inextricably linked, it is absolutely good to get the kindness of the mayor.

Selena's ability to become an internationally renowned jewel thief not only depends on her skillful skills, but also her wisdom. She knows what choice is best for Cyber ​​and the Devil Gang.

Although Gordon went to pick up his children, the host of the banquet was not there, but this will not affect the progress of the entire banquet. In fact, Gordon only needs to provide a safe enough and upscale occasion, other things He doesn't need to participate anymore.

These high-ranking officials and dignitaries will naturally complete the next tasks very skillfully, one deal after another, one deal after another for favors, and the confrontation with hidden swords in laughter again and again, just like this proceeded smoothly under the cover of laughter.

"I said, Uncle Lucius, it's time to upgrade my suit for the seventh time. I have a lot of new ideas, such as..."

Selena and other little girls surrounded the CEO of Wayne Industries, Mr. Lucius, who was over 60 years old, chatting non-stop. Lucius was sitting on the sofa, drinking wine and talking casually. Answer two sentences.

In the beginning, he only made battle suits for Batman, and now he has become the largest private combat equipment supplier on the entire east coast. Mr. Lucius' life trajectory is also very brilliant, but now, in his semi-retired state, he likes it. It's more comfortable to chat with these young girls than to chat with guys who come with a purpose.

"Okay, let me rest my old bones."

Lucius took a sip of his wine and looked at Catherine: "After your brother comes back, I will go to your house in person. Let's talk about it then? You poor little devil leader."

"But my brother doesn't need it anymore!"

Catherine crossed her waist and said confidently, "It's not that I won't give you money, Uncle Lucius, the customer is God."

"sorry."

Lucius replied coldly: "But I'm an atheist, little Catherine, do you really think that saying such things on this occasion..."

"boom"

Before Lucius could finish his sentence, a sudden gunshot stopped all the drinking and drinking in the hall instantly. With a start, Mei stepped in front of Selena and the mayor, swiped her fingers in her bag, and two The modified pistol appeared in her hand, and she looked vigilantly at the direction of the gunshot. The next moment, a tall figure walked slowly from the red carpet.

In the darkness, he was like a giant beast, every breath was so heavy, he was wearing a black down cloak lined with a gray hunting suit, wearing riding boots, he carried a struggling guard in one hand, and in the other Clutching a pistol, behind him were hundreds of black-clad thugs armed with weapons.

He walked into the bright banquet hall, his ferocious eyes swept over the people in front of him, and he let out a deep laugh:

"Hello, dignitaries and nobles of Gotham, although I came late, I'm still here, and I finally didn't miss the appointment."

"Who are you!"

A courageous old man asked loudly: "This is not the place for you!"

"who I am?"

Bane shrugged, he stretched out his hand to straighten his breathing mask, and said in a low voice:

"I am the end of Gotham, and I am here to end this place that should have been destroyed long ago!"

He stretched out his fingers and slid across the bodies of everyone in front of him one by one:

"Starting from you, one by one, remove all the corruption in this place, warn the world, and then bring a brand new future!"

"My existence is necessary, ladies and gentlemen, you have been living in luxury, just like London hundreds of years ago, or even older Rome, but it doesn't matter, I will help you get rid of this stagnant city, just tonight."

Bane raised his finger, and behind him, the weapons in the hands of the thugs also raised up, and he let out an evil laugh, like the first ray of fear rising in the dark night of Gotham:

"Good night, Gotham."
