Chapter 60 As long as you don’t stop, the road will continue to extend

In the Gotham Police Station, the tired Gordon pushed open his office door, stepped back, and said unexpectedly:

"It's really unlike you to stay in the police station."

Qin Su was sitting at his workstation, and Manafei and he were holding an oversized cup of ice cream and licking it.

"There is nothing we can do. Although those congressmen have been removed from office, the families they represent are still doing well."

Qin Su had a circle of cream around her mouth, looking like Santa Claus.

"No matter where I go these days, there are at least ten eyes following me. They are just trying to dig up some dirty information from me and throw me into Arkham. How can I dare to go out in the field under such circumstances?"

Since they want to find fault with Qin Su's actions, in line with the idea of ​​doing more and making more mistakes, and doing less and making fewer mistakes, Qin Su simply does nothing and clocks in and clocks out at the police station every day. Gotham is gone anyway. He still turns.

Qin Su buried his head in the ice cream: "Besides, suck, and I found that it is quite comfortable to fish in the office. There is nothing to do, so it is just a break."

"So you just stayed in the police station for the past two days and did nothing?"

Qin Su glanced up and recalled: "I treated everyone to a meal yesterday, studied the sales of Wonder Woman peripherals, and tried many desserts that I had never tasted before."

Upon hearing this, Gordon's face turned so dark that it looked as if he had been smeared with charcoal. He raised his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "That's it..."

He turned around and returned to his office. Qin Su and Manafei looked at each other and continued to focus on destroying their own ice cream.

Until a stack of documents hit the table, shaking Manafei who was sitting on it.

Gordon said with a cold face: "Since you are so free, please make up for the case reports that you have accumulated before, as well as your work summary for the week, and give it to me before get off work today."

Gordon had helped Qin Su handle all the paperwork before. He knew that this young man was busy putting out fires, so he wanted to help Qin Su share the burden. He had to work overtime for a while every night. Unexpectedly, Qin Su was hiding behind the In the police station, they are paid empty wages and do not work.

Qin Su immediately grimaced: "Director, I have solved such a big case, so I should be able to take a few days off. Can you give me a few days of grace?"

Writing reports is not difficult for Qin Su. No police officer can deal with it in a sloppy manner. The key point is that Gordon is strict with Qin Su. Qin Su has to spend the energy of writing papers to write daily reports.

"Okay."

Gordon didn't force it, he just didn't want Qin Su to be reduced to a hard-working police detective, saying that he did a good job but the paperwork was a mess. Although such people have abilities, they are only suitable for working in the middle and lower levels. Letting them sit in the office is better than killing them. got them.

Since Qin Su will succeed Gordon in the future, he must not only be a practical person, but also have office skills, and he must not make mistakes. After all, this is all for the record.

Qin Su has people watching him every day waiting for him to make mistakes, but doesn't Gordon have one? Just everyday, a lot of people wanted Gordon to step down, but Gordon didn't give them a chance.

After supervising Qin Su's work, Gordon put his hands in his pockets, looked outside through the window, and sighed.

"Are you really not going? The groundbreaking ceremony for Gotham New District is a plan planned by you."

Qin Su held his chin and used his fingers to compare the villain with Manafei fighting.

"It doesn't matter if you go, it will be over soon. The real focus is on the follow-up construction of the new district. I completely believe in Wayne. They have been committed to building Gotham hundreds of years ago. Gotham can develop into a world-class Three big cities, Wayne played an important role

Moreover, Wayne did not impose too harsh conditions on investment in the new district. Almost everyone is optimistic about the development potential of the new district. With the influx of capital, Gotham's economic center of gravity will soon shift to the new district, and every inch of land will be lost. King's Gotham will usher in a period of rapid development, and the addition of jobs can fundamentally alleviate Gotham's symptoms.

Isn’t this what we people like to hear? ”

Gordon looked in a different direction than Qin Su. The young man was full of energy and liked to hold his head high and look to high places, but he was looking at something more realistic.

"You are talking about positive impacts. The emergence of the new district has brought more than just that. It is an enclave and a blue ocean. Everyone knows how big a cake it is. Everyone wants a piece of it, and healthy competition It doesn't exist in Gotham, I can already see gangsters breaking dogs' brains to grab territory

And not everyone hopes for change. Vested interest groups will not sit back and watch their own interests suffer. They are the biggest threat. ”

"The director thinks someone will take the opportunity to sabotage the groundbreaking ceremony?" Qin Su thought about it and realized that Gordon wanted to arrest him and work as a security guard at the site.

"Well, based on my more than twenty years of work experience, whenever Gotham announces a new project, such as a taller building, there is a risk of being blown up."

Qin Su thought to himself, Director, you may have remembered wrongly. There were more bombings in Miwa Town. Obviously, kidnappings were the most common in Gotham. The average person in the Bat Family has been kidnapped more than twice. Director, do the math. You have been kidnapped. Been tied up several times.

"I think, Director, your worries are unfounded. Nothing will happen this time."

Qin Su opened his mouth and raised a flag. He was not afraid at all. Please, he had seen the list of attendees for the groundbreaking ceremony, including ribbon-cutting person Bruce Wayne, reporter Clark Kent, special guest Wonder Woman, and Art. Landis's representative, Arthur the Sea King.

This is basically the same as a small gathering of Zhenglian. Who would think of picking this time to cause trouble, not even the Joker. The Joker is crazy but not stupid, and Batman must have prepared a lot of backup plans to deal with unexpected events. Guaranteed Not only treating the symptoms, but also treating the root cause.

Unless the Overlord of Apokolips comes to earth, most villains will be pinned to death if they jump out.

"I hope so. I'm leaving first. Remember to complete the report." As the director, Gordon could not be absent from such an important occasion.

"Don't drink too much."

Qin Su waved to Gordon, then put his face against the glass of the window and watched Gordon's car merge into the traffic flow.

"The director is gone! Mana Fei!"

Manafei raised her little face covered with cream and gave an "OK" gesture to Qin Sub.

The moisture in the air gathered, and the distorted light condensed into Qin Su's appearance, while Qin Su's own figure slowly disappeared.

Mana Fei swallowed the ice cream: "Mana Mana."

(The invisibility can last for two hours, do not expose to the sun.)

"I know, I'll leave this to you, Manafei."

The door of the police station was equipped with infrared surveillance, so Qin Su jumped directly through the window.

Only nine of the ten words he said to Gordon were true. How could Qin Su stay in the police station peacefully, just to cover up others' eyes.

As Gordon said, the new district was planned by Qin Su, just like his own flesh and blood. How could he miss the birth of his child.

"But I really should consider buying a car."

……

The prosperous Port Adam in the past was completely razed to the ground in the battle with the Three Palaces, but today, it will serve as the connection point between the new area of ​​Gotham and the old city, and is destined to become a transportation hub in the future.

On the podium, a large group of media personnel with long guns and short cannons were bombarding Bruce, and they all wanted to put a microphone into his mouth.

"Everyone, line up and come one by one."

Bruce hasn't seen these media going crazy for a long time. The last time was when Damian suddenly appeared. The public was talking about the identity of the Wayne family's matron, and they were speculating about which woman had taken over Bruce's diamond king.

"Mr. Wayne, I heard that Wayne Group is going to push forward the reclamation project that has not progressed for three years today, and threatened to build a new city as good as Gotham. Is this really not the purpose of Wayne Group? Is the announcement to boost the stock price a fraud? ”

This question was very pointed, and Bruce suspected that this person was hired by other companies to cause trouble.

He pretended to be mysterious and said: "Everyone will know whether it is true or false in a moment. Wayne Group has been preparing for three years just for today's blockbuster."

Clark, who was among the reporters, looked at Bruce teasingly. It took three years, but he had only been preparing for less than a week.

As for why it was not reporter Louise who came, but Clark who was a soft-boiled man, it was obviously because this place was not dangerous enough for reporter man to look down on.

Noticing Clark's gaze, Bruce narrowed his eyes habitually and called out: "Reporter from Daily Planet, you can ask questions next."

"Me?"

Clark was a little embarrassed. He had not prepared any questions. This business trip to Gotham was entirely requested by him. The purpose was of course to visit his beloved magical dinosaur Groudon.

But Clark is also a journalist who has won the Pulitzer Prize. His professionalism is excellent. After running Super Brain for three seconds, he thought of an excellent question.

"I heard that Atlantis is involved in the construction of the new city. What role will they play in it? Can ordinary people like us look forward to a mysterious deep-sea adventure in our lifetime?"

Bruce showed a standard smile: "Of course, Wayne Group has invited Aquaman as the representative of Atlantis for this groundbreaking ceremony. The new city will serve as a bridge of communication between the two civilizations. Gotham, as the largest city in mankind, will A city that will show Atlantis the cultural characteristics of human civilization..."

Bruce said a lot today and answered a lot of questions, most of which were impeccable official terms, because at this moment he was facing not only the tens of thousands of Gotham citizens under the platform, but also the entire human world and the underwater world. Atlantis.

This is a live broadcast that is broadcast simultaneously around the world.

Qin Su stood on a telephone pole and watched this scene with soft eyes.

"Click!"

Qin Su noticed a flash. He lowered his head and saw a strange woman pointing a camera at him.

"Are you really not going to go on stage?" She pointed to the ribbon-cutting ceremony that was about to begin.

Qin Su looked around to confirm that she was asking about him, and jumped down from the telephone pole.

"Can you see me? Who are you?" Qin Su was scratching his head, but still couldn't remember who the woman in front of him was.

She pushed the glasses up on her forehead, and Qin Su recognized the woman as Wonder Woman. It seemed that the glasses on her head were the same as those of Superman. They had the function of cognitive interference, and even her own mother couldn't recognize them after wearing them.

Qin Su said in surprise: "Wonder Woman? Have you recovered your supernatural powers?"

Diana smiled and nodded: "I went back to Mount Olympus, and they returned all the equipment to me. The gods also talked about you specifically to me, saying that you did very well. You seemed to be very good. You are valued by the gods, Qin Su.”

All the nonsense in the Greek pantheon came to mind, and Qin Su squinted his eyes: "I would rather the gods ignore me completely."

Diana didn't have a good face towards the gods who confiscated her equipment: "I won't mention them anymore. I asked you just now, won't you go up?"

Qin Su grimaced: "I can't show my face now, the Court of Owls will definitely come and cause trouble."

"Then let them come." Diana replied domineeringly, and the suit she wore could not hide her heroic spirit at all.

"This ceremony marks the rebirth of Gotham. After today, I saw a little hope of being saved in Gotham. This is an important turning point in Bruce's life. If we continue to move forward, maybe we will lose Batman in the future, but As friends of Bruce, we hope for that day.

So Clark and I are here. We won't let others disrupt this ceremony. You can go on stage openly. ”

Qin Su still shook his head and explained: "I'm not afraid of the Court of Owls. The key point is that among the dignitaries who came to participate in the ceremony, nine out of ten were owls, and one failed to become an owl.

The Court of Owls' hatred towards me is a bit high now, and I'm afraid that going on stage will cause trouble for the ceremony. ”

Sending other people's parents to jail, and then going over to have a drink and chat with others. Qin Su was really worried that these owl cubs would hold him and die together. Of course he would be fine, but the scene would probably be very ugly by then, which would be more than worth the gain.

"I'd better stay invisible and be an invisible guardian." Qin Su planned to return to the telegraph pole he chose.

"Is there any conflict between being invisible and being on stage?"

Diana took off her glasses and suit, revealing the golden armor underneath. She grabbed Qin Su's right hand and flew to the stands without any explanation.

The audience was not surprised by the appearance of Wonder Woman, because the promotion originally stated that she would appear as a special guest.

"Wonder Woman, look at me, I've been pushing you for ten years!"

"When will new peripherals be released? My wallet is ready!"

"Hero, hey, Heroine..."

"Wayne Group actually invited Wonder Woman. It's great to have money."

"Wonder Woman is here for Aquaman's sake!"

Unlike Batman's treatment in Gotham, Wonder Woman is very popular with the public. One-third of the people present today came because of her. This is calculated by Qin Su based on the support sticks, and there are also people holding magical The heroine waits for her to stand up for herself.

Diana waved to her fans as she flew through the sky.

"Hello everyone in Gotham."

Qin Su's experience at this moment was very strange. He was being held by Diana with one hand, and there was inevitably contact between his limbs under the influence of gravity.

Looking down at the crazy fans below, Qin Su couldn't help but wonder what kind of reaction they would have if they knew that the idol they singled out was being held by an invisible man.

Wonder Woman landed on the stand. Bruce nodded to her and frowned slightly. He heard the sound of more than one person landing.

Of course, being invisible could not be hidden from Clark, who could see through things. He gave Bruce a look, and Bruce immediately guessed that the person coming was Qin Su.

Wonder Woman looked at Clark and Bruce, then stood silently between them, blocking their sight.

When Qin Su saw that his master did not object to his invisibility on stage, he immediately became bolder. The benefits of invisibility were now revealed. Qin Su could watch the giants of Zhenglian from all angles.

Tsk, it would be nice if they were all wearing uniforms. The look of this playboy, Master, doesn’t look like Batman at all.

As the representative of Atlantis, Aquaman is standing on the stage speaking to the world. He expressed Atlantis's concept of "peaceful coexistence" and announced that Gotham New District will be used as a pilot to explore the future coexistence of the two civilizations. model.

It stands to reason that in this situation involving diplomacy between two civilizations, Atlantis sent Aquaman, so humans must have a permanent member of the Security Council, but the fact is that no one was notified, including the President of the United States. .

The person present today is the current mayor of Gotham, Hamilton Hill. Standing next to him is the Penguin who has a high voice from the citizens, but the Penguin is standing on the stage as an investor.

"Mayor, it will be your turn to speak soon, but your face doesn't seem right."

After hearing this, Hamilton wanted to slap the Penguin. Nonsense. The Court of Owls was destroyed overnight. The old guy who cares about his life should hide deeply and leave his heirs to look after the family. As the mayor, he has no chance to run away. Now he still has to follow the procedures, and have a cordial conversation with Gotham's outstanding entrepreneur Bruce Wayne under the watchful eye of Zheng Lian. It's strange that Hamilton's face looks better.

"It seems that the mayor doesn't really want to go on stage to speak. Cobot is willing to do it for you."

The Penguin smiled sinisterly and quietly gave Hamilton an elbow on his big belly. The action was extremely secretive. The Penguin supported Hamilton with both hands and pretended to be panicked: "The mayor seems to be not feeling well. Call the medical staff over quickly. Send the mayor down to rest.”

A team of doctors who had been waiting under the stage immediately rushed up with a stretcher, gagged the mayor without saying a word, and carried it directly below.

The Penguin was chuckling that no one noticed his little move, when a voice faintly sounded in his ear: "What did you agree to do in a dignified manner?"

Penguin's expression froze, and now he was really panicked: "I, I can explain it. Apart from this time, I haven't done any other bad things. You have to admit..."

"But well done!" Qin Su patted the Penguin on the shoulder, "I know what you want to do, and I support you in doing so, but there is absolutely no room for mistakes in this matter."

After saying that, Qin Su disappeared like a ghost. Penguin secretly wiped his sweat. Did he pass the test?

"...My speech ends here. Next, it is the mayor of Gotham's turn to speak."

After Neptune said that, he gave way and what came up was the chubby Penguin.

"Ahem, the mayor is ill. I will speak on his behalf."

The Penguin held out his bulging belly, pushed Aquaman aside, and began to speak to all the citizens of Gotham. He did not canvass votes for himself during the whole process, but he hinted that he was the most suitable person to lead Gotham City.

Wonder Woman and Bruce whispered: "Is it okay to let this big fat man go up and speak? He doesn't look like a good person."

Although people should not be judged by their appearance, Penguin is definitely an exception because he was originally designed based on people's stereotypes of capitalists. He has a black top hat, a hooked nose, a fat belly, a monocle, and a cane replaced by an umbrella. Even if he has transformed Even makeup can't hide his natural cunning.

Bruce didn't care about this. He knew that Qin Su was cooperating with Penguin. Even if Penguin was just pretending to be a good person, it didn't matter, as long as Qin Su could force him to pretend for ten, twenty, fifty years. Years, that Penguin is a good person.

"After Cobot finishes speaking, the ribbon-cutting ceremony will be next." Bruce was only concerned about this, "How are Groudon's preparations going?"

Barbara's clear voice came from the headphones.

"The projection system has been set up. After the first two experiments, it was confirmed that the air distortion caused by high temperature will not affect the generation of projection. From the angle of the camera, Groudon is a very large machine, emitting steam while running. That kind of thing.”

Everything was ready, and Penguin also finished his speech.

Aquaman held a piece of red satin, Penguin, who replaced the mayor, held the other side, and Bruce took a pair of golden scissors from Wonder Woman, which were said to be used by Zeus to shear sheep.

After Bruce walked to the middle of the satin, he suddenly looked back at something, and then moved a little to the right.

Qin Su was a little at a loss. He knew what Bruce meant, and he had had this thought in his heart, but when he really encountered it, he was really panicked.

"Go ahead, little one."

Wonder Woman pushed Qin Su and easily released the invisibility magic.

Qin Su felt that he had only taken two steps to reach the red satin.

Bruce said in a volume that only the two of them could hear: "At this point in the ceremony, it can no longer be destroyed."

This sentence dispelled Qin Su's last worries. He tremblingly reached out to grab the scissors and held them together with Bruce's hand.

"Click."

"Click!"

There was a sound of the red satin being cut, and a sound of Clark pressing the shutter.

After this, the Fury of the Earth opened its eyes, and it was the appointed time.

A large number of drones carrying projectors followed Groudon out of the seaside cave. As the god of earth stepped forward, a vast land continued to extend under his feet.

From the perspective of onlookers, it is a giant machine that looks very high-tech and is continuously creating large tracts of land in some way. It is simply "like God's help".

Looking at the expanding land, Penguin could not hide his excitement. After many years, Cobot regained his family honor and became a pioneer in Gotham again!

Neptune is looking at the ocean that is gradually being covered, but he does not feel it is a pity, because this land will also be used to carry the Atlanteans!

Bruce and Qin Su stood together. What he saw was the future scene of this land. This is a clean land, without the Court of Owls, without gangs, and this place will also become a part of Gotham. After all, will it be dyed white? Black, or black diluted with white, both Bruce and Batman are full of expectations.

"I took a very good photo." Clark held his camera and was very satisfied.

In the photo, Penguin looks back at the past, Aquaman looks at the present, and Bruce looks at the future.

Qin Su stood among them. As a new pioneer, what did he see? Clark was curious.

……

Qin Su didn't look at that piece of land, he looked at Groudon who created the land. To be precise, it was the "visitor from another dimension" represented by Groudon.

Like him, they are outsiders in this world. Whether they stick together for warmth or criticize each other, no one can tell.

As the only person in the world who understands them, Qin Su understands the meaning of his existence.

Those who come are not enemies, "Once they come, let them be in peace."

The one who comes is not good, "Now that he has come, rest in peace." (End of Chapter)
