Chapter 745: Heavy Shadows (Part 1)(2/2)
She is respectfully called Mrs. Goethe, and her daughter is Miss Goethe.
Both of them were dressed in the same way, wearing the most fashionable woolen coat for ladies nowadays, paired with a pair of bright-colored boots, a scarf and a hat of the same color as the boots, and holding a handbag in their hands.
Bruce retreated to the manor's yard and stood behind the bushes, listening to their chat.
Mrs. Goethe spoke first: "If you hadn't insisted on going, I wouldn't have sat and ate with those smelly dock workers. Wasn't the experience last night bad enough?"
"Don't say that, Mom, look at how stupid they are. Some girls the same age as me can only look at my boots longingly. Also, haven't you seen those who call themselves ladies in the East End?"
The way women look at you?”
"Humph, don't play these little tricks with me, you
I just want to see Mr. Werther. I have known for a long time that the bad guy is not a very good character, but his family is quite respectable. If I see Mr. Werther today, you'd better be more reserved...
…”
….
"I see, Mom, what kind of topic do you think is suitable to start? Should I talk to them about the recent drama first?" Miss Goethe's voice was a little uneasy.
"Silly girl." Mrs. Goethe scolded: "The play hasn't started yet, what are you going to talk about? Didn't you read this morning's newspaper? Of course you should talk to Mr. White, who is from out of town, about our local specialties. Then
The famous Batman."
"Oh, what does he mean? He's just a hypocritical rich man. Didn't the newspapers say it? In the name of rescuing begging children, he brings them to his base for enjoyment. It's really disgusting.
, I heard that a child died, he was really..."
Mrs. Goethe quickly covered her mouth and said: "Stop saying such things. That is not a topic that a lady like you should talk about. Isn't it enough to let those dirty men talk?"
The mother and daughter whispered and walked quickly through the courtyard of Wayne Manor. Through the gap in the shrub wall, Bruce saw Mrs. Goethe covering her mouth with a handkerchief, looking up and down at Wayne Manor, and said to his daughter
:
"You want me to say that Lil Wayne is the best candidate, playboy? That is the least worth caring about in choosing a spouse. If you can marry Lil Wayne, I will go to church every week to thank God!"
The footsteps of high-heeled shoes gradually faded away, and Bruce's expression became cold. He walked along the yard wall to the back of Wayne Manor, avoiding Alfred's sight, and climbed out of the wall with great skill.
There are also two manors behind Wayne Manor, but because the South District is a newly built wealthy area, the buildings are not as dense as the West District. Bruce walked through a street and turned a corner before finding the mailbox of another family.
Bruce knew that the people in this family were allergic to ink, so although they ordered newspapers, they never read them. Bruce once heard the newsboy here complain that when a new newspaper was delivered, the previous day's newspaper was still in the mailbox.
Bruce looked around and found that no one was around. He reached out and pried open the family's mailbox and took out a newspaper inside.
After closing the mailbox, Bruce walked around two more corners, found a deserted corner, opened the newspaper, and began to read it carefully.
In fact, you don’t need to read it very carefully, because the headline on the front page reads:
"Batman? Fuck you Gotham heroes!"
Bruce frowned, then looked at the subtitle, which read: "Batman preys on young children and is a cruel child killer who puts on the cloak of a hero!"
The text contains a lot of content, but it mainly introduces in a sequential timeline how Batman rescued begging children in the name of rescue, how he took them away and persecuted them to death.
Among them, there are four photos in chronological order. The first one is of his figure flashing past in a dark alley. Bruce remembered that there was an iron sheet placed on the gap between this alley and another alley.
Three children, including the little girl, used to live there.
The second picture shows Batman standing on a tall building, but due to the angle and background, he looks less like a hero and more like a killer looking for an opportunity to commit a crime.
The third and fourth pictures are both taken at close range, and the shape of Batman's mask can be clearly seen.
Batman has been around in Gotham for so long, not without him from the newspaper. There have also been reporters who risked their lives to take pictures of him in Gotham at night. But generally speaking, Batman will catch him on the spot and confiscate the crime tools.
There are also very few newspapers that publish news about him. After all, no one wants to deal with a weirdo in tights who haunts Gotham in the middle of the night. After all, gangsters are reasonable, but if it is a mental patient, it is really hard to explain.
Already.
But this time, the news occupied an entire page of the Gotham Morning News.
This article is sharply written, sophisticated in narrative, and highly provocative. More importantly, it accurately captures the psychology of Gotham people——
Rather than creating gods, these lunatics prefer to see gods fall.
