Chapter 3477 Research on Cats and Dogs (25)

After seeing Barry off, Schiller picked up the cigar again, walked back to the restaurant, walked through the crowd and sat down next to Victor who was beating his fingers on his biscuits.

"What's wrong?" Victor asked.

Schiller shook his head and asked the waiter to bring a new knife and fork. He tied his napkin and said, "Nothing. Have you seen the urgent news just now?"

"You mean the explosion occurred in the Metropolitan Commercial Street? Didn't it mean that it was caused by the merchant's gas explosion?"

Schiller nodded again, but did not seem to be affirming the truth, but was just satisfied with this statement.

Although Schiller took the tableware, he did not take many dishes. He just ordered a little vegetable salad and spent most of his time drinking.

Victor looked at the side and lowered his voice and said, "Jonathan is an absolute instability factor. I really don't know how the principal would agree to let him come back."

"The lack of faculty in the Department of Chemistry has seriously affected Gotham University's rating and ranking. Moreover, the chemical industry, which has developed rapidly recently, also requires more talent reserves. Jonathan is still worthy of recognition in terms of professionalism."

Victor looked at Schiller's expression. He didn't look like he was verbal.

"Are you serious? This is not very similar to you." Victor shook his head, put his attention back on his plate and said, "Jonathan is a natural anti-socialist. He will never be a professor honestly. If there is a big mess, it will be too late."

"Anti-socialists have their uses, too." Schiller said with a smile, "There are two new superheroes coming to the city. How can there be no super criminals who go against them?"

"New superhero, who do you say?"

"Of course it's Batman and Superman." Schiller also lowered his voice and said, "If I guessed correctly, someone should have noticed their existence."

In the mayor's office of the Gotham City Government, the Pale Knight stared at a photo and was stunned. The secretary stood aside and waited for him to speak.

"This thing doesn't affect the skyline, right?"

"Not yet," replied the secretary. "The height does not exceed the heights of the tall buildings near the beach, only a little can be seen from the gaps of the tall buildings. There is currently no risk of destroying the skyline."

"Then let it go," said Pale Knight, "Don't demolish it. Just treat it as a new project by the Tourism Administration."

The secretary turned his eyes back to the photo. On the beach in Gotham, a sand castle that was more than ten meters high towered. Tourists gathered around the castle and were obviously very surprised by this.

However, they were all surrounded by two figures, and there were two figures standing on the balcony on the second floor of Sand Castle. If you enlarge the photo, both of them were familiar faces: one was Bruce Wayne and the other was Clark Kent.

"Do you know where these two people went?" asked the Pale Knight.

"They should be living in the Wayne Hotel, not far from the beach. But for some reason, instead of using the private beach of the hotel, they went to the public beach. Later, they returned to the hotel. According to witnesses, there was also a little girl."

"That should be Elsa, Bruce's daughter. This Bruce Wayne is obviously not... Forget it. Find someone to stare at the hotel, and if they come out, send a car to pick them up here."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

Night is coming, and Batman has also changed into equipment. Although he has fun during the day, he still has to do some serious things at night.

Batman was not that reckless. He did not intend to dress like this to return to Wayne Manor, but just planned to go to Wayne Manor first to find out. After all, there are several laboratories there, and maybe some equipment can be obtained.

The most important thing is that the Wayne Building uses facial recognition devices, which allows him to scan his face. If he goes to Wayne Manor, Afu will definitely recognize that he is not a local Batman.

Superman went with him, but did not intend to go in with him, but just watched the wind outside the building. To avoid being too eye-catching, he did not wear Superman's uniform, but put on a sports jacket on the short-sleeved daytime.

The two of them went out in an inappropriate manner. When they were about to reach the underground parking lot, Superman couldn't help but say: "We two are like the worst comic con partners: one is fully armed, the other doesn't take it seriously at all."

"You're going to go to comic con," Batman turned around and said, "Next time we can go together. I'll dress up as Batman, you dress up as Superman."

"That's so boring. I should be dressed as Batman, you dressed as Superman."

"I've played it before," Batman said, "Zatana was doing magic on the stage and something went wrong. To save the scene, I put on your uniform..."

"What? Which show? Best Magician Tour?"

"It seems to be. Metropolitan Special. Many people have seen it, and there is news. Haven't you seen it?"

"I'm not the kind of person who searches for my codename on the Internet and then responds to every bad comment."

"Who are you referring to? Is it me? I'm not so bored." Batman turned his head back.

"Of course you didn't, because you're still replying to the good comments." Superman seemed to have thought of something interesting, and he said, "You also liked Diana's blog for commenting on Justice League."

"Because I'm Batman's patron, OK?"

As soon as he said this, a black business car parked in front of them. A man and a woman in formal clothes got off.

"Hello, Bruce Wayne and Mr. Clark Kent. We are city staff. The mayor wants to invite you two to have dinner together, so please come with us."

Batman's raised arms paused because there were so many complaints in this sentence. He didn't even know which sentence to start.

Although he really wanted to emphasize "being competent when he is outside", Batman in this universe has long stopped doing it, and it is also necessary for the other party to not be able to meet Batman's need to conceal his identity.

But since you call yourself a city government staff, can you not dress like the agents in "Men in Black"?

Moreover, you who know you are the staff of the municipal government and the mayor came to invite them to have dinner together; those who don’t know you think you were sent by the godfather. What is the difference between this accent and a gangster?

In fact, there is no difference. Because under Roy's leadership, the municipal team in Gotham City is indeed a large gangster. Even if it is gradually whitewashed, it will not be able to get rid of the gangster habits for a while.

There is one advantage of this style, that is, it is basically not allowed to be rejected by the other party. Even if there are Batman and Superman on the other side, you have to consider whether the other party will give you an irresistible condition if you don’t go.

Batman and Superman got in the car. Batman wanted to find out what was going on, but both the driver and the woman in the co-pilot were very strict.

"Okay, the law of silence. I understand." Batman sighed and said in a low voice, "At least you have to tell me what to eat tonight, right?"

"The city's private banquet hall has prepared a sumptuous dinner for you, and you don't have to worry about it." The woman finally spoke.

But when Batman further mentioned related topics such as "what mayor is looking for him?", the woman became silent again.

This made Batman understand that the other party was quite well-trained and did not look like a city government employee, but more like an FBI agent.

This wonderful sense of inversion often appears in this universe: employees are like agents, superheroes are like ordinary people, and civilians are like gangsters. It seems that everything here is inverted and confused...

It was not until he got out of the car and was led into the city's banquet hall that Batman realized that this chaotic inversion was not an illusion.

Because the clown stood behind the long table waiting for them.

Of course, the Pale Knight has not been wearing clown makeup for a long time. But Jack Napier is basically the template for the clown that appears most often in every universe, and even the local clown Jack in this universe uses this template. After washing off the clown makeup, he looks very similar to the Pale Knight.

It is not surprising that the Joker looks like this in the universe where Batman is. Although the Joker's makeup will have a partial blurred face, this obviously cannot deceive Batman, nor can it deceive Superman with super vision.

Batman instinctively took a step back and hit Superman. Superman pressed one hand on his arm and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

But it was not just Jack Napier's face that made Batman take a step back, but the clown who should have used this face to make all kinds of crazy laugh expressions. He looked at them with a serious expression, his face full of disagreement.

It is indeed scary to laugh every day, but if he doesn't laugh one day, it will be even scary. Because you really can't help but think about what makes the clown laugh.

And why does his tight lips and downward corners look so familiar? Are you Batman and I am Batman?

Fortunately, before Batman was thinking too much, the Pale Knight said, "Welcome. Sit down first."

At this time, Batman realized that the person who had just come to pick him up said that the mayor invited him to have dinner, so the Mr. Napier in front of him was the mayor?

This world is finally in a state of sprint.

Batman and Superman sat down. One delicious dish after another was served. To be honest, Batman was a little hungry, but he still didn't use a knife or fork, because the clown sitting in the main seat seemed to have something to say. He didn't expect that one day Batman would have to look at the clown's wink at dinner.

"First of all, on behalf of the citizens of Gotham, I welcome you. However, the masterpieces created by the two on the beaches of Gotham today have caused quite a response. Although it is a public area, if it attracts a large number of citizens to watch, it will still cause safety risks..."

Batman and Superman looked at each other and seemed a little guilty. With Aisha alone, it was impossible to build such a big castle. That sand castle is indeed mainly the masterpiece of the two of them.

"Sorry." Superman took the lead, because he knew Batman would never apologize to the Joker, so he said first, "We were a little lost when we played. But this is also because of the beautiful scenery and pleasant climate of the city, which greatly inspired our creative inspiration. This kind of public field art is displayed in major cities around the world. Although the audience is enthusiastic and curious, most of them are also sensible. I believe in the quality of the citizens of the city..."
