Meiman: I was a policeman in Gotham

Chapter 94 Gotham Without Crime

In this world, the cheapest thing is justice, which is the consensus of all.

A row of police cars with guardrails on the windows passed through the street, with a sunroof on the top, and a heavy machine gun mounted on it, so that the police could use heavy firepower to suppress criminals at any time.

There were little snowflakes in the sky, and there were only a few pedestrians on the street, and they all wore gray and black uniforms. Even if someone occasionally walked by, they would walk in a hurry, as if they were chasing invisible monsters behind them, and they might engulf them at any time.

Among them, there was a person whose footsteps were always steady, and he observed this strange world with calm eyes.

He is Qin Su, a man from another universe.

This is already the fourth day Qin Su came to Earth-[-]. He managed to "borrow" a suit of clothes and blend into this familiar yet unfamiliar city, Gotham.

Traveling from Gotham to another Gotham is very reasonable.

The place where Qin Su first appeared was Crime Alley, not a ruin, which made Qin Su heave a sigh of relief, but also raised his heart.

The good news is that the anti-monitors haven't devoured the whole world yet. The bad news is that there are surveillance everywhere. Fortunately, Qin Su has got back the snake charm, and he instantly turns invisible, leaving this sensitive area with the remaining super speed.

After that, Qin Su tried to understand this strange Gotham in various ways, but there was only one newspaper sold at the newsstand, and that was the Planetary Daily, and the news published on it were all strange stereotyped articles, which only explained one thing: The information control in this world has reached a very extreme point.

Qin Su doesn't have the currency of this world, but luckily he always has drinking water and food in the system warehouse, so he doesn't need it yet.
"The world belongs to the crime syndicate! The world belongs to the crime syndicate!"

Qin Su avoids the crowd of demonstrations. Although he is curious about why some people support the criminal syndicate, he still dare not show up in public, which will attract unnecessary attention.

He had already suffered once.

It was the third day after he came to Earth [-]. He ran to Arkham Asylum. Qin Su’s thoughts were like this. Since everything here is opposite to the main universe, all the people locked up in Arkham Asylum should be is a good man.

He guessed right, and at the same time, he underestimated the tightness of Arkham's defenses. Almost the moment he used the snake charm to enter invisibly, the alarm sounded.

There are a lot of pressure-sensitive floors in Arkham Asylum. As long as someone takes a wrong step, the alarm will sound, which means the arrival of Gotham's rapid response force.

Yes, Gotham is taken over by the military, the streets are patrolled by the Gotham police, more often than not by the military.

Qin Su was naturally not afraid of these sharp steel weapons, but he didn't want to expose himself, which would attract the attention of the owner of the city.

The gaze of the owl.

Sculptures of owls are everywhere, covering every corner of Gotham. No matter where he goes, Qin Su can feel the peeps from behind. The reason why those ordinary passers-by walk in such a hurry is to avoid these gazes.

What made Qin Su even more horrified was that after four days here, Qin Su had not seen any crimes, and everything was in order.

This is definitely not normal. In order to gain a deeper understanding of this world, Qin Su decided to find someone.

He turned the corner and came to a seemingly deserted open space.

Qin Su frowned and looked around, but he didn't see the person he was looking for in advance.

A group of beggars and homeless people gathered in twos and threes in the open space. They were dressed in rags, their faces were sallow and thin, and their eyes were dull. Rather than saying that they were alive, it would be better to say that they had died a long time ago. The black lamp corpses looked more alive than them.

Qin Su could not obtain information through formal channels, so he chose a less formal way.

Qin Su found a beggar with the widest build. The upright beer belly was particularly conspicuous among the bony crowd. A beggar who could grow fat showed that he had sufficient status and ability.

Qin Su walked up to him: "I want to ask for directions."

The fat beggar glanced at Qin Su, stretched out his fat palm, the meaning was self-evident.

Qin Su took out a bottle of red wine given to him by the Penguin, and threw it directly to the fat beggar: "Is this enough?"

The red wine that the Penguin gave was definitely not ordinary. The fat beggar stuffed the wine bottle into the thick fat before he started talking to Qin Su.

"This is a good thing for winter. It seems that you need to have a private conversation with such a generous shot."

His voice was greasy and high-pitched, as if talking with a whistle stuck in his throat, and he led Qin Su to a separate diesel barrel, and he lit the firewood inside.

"go ahead."

Qin Su really came to ask for directions: "Tell me where Bingshan Restaurant has moved."

Hearing Qin Su's question, the fat beggar's long and narrow eyes suddenly widened, and then narrowed quickly: "Are you here to amuse me? If you want to ask, ask quickly. I don't have time to chat with you."

Qin Su didn't know why he had such a reaction.

Seeing that Qin Su really didn't understand, the fat beggar laughed: "It seems that you really don't know, I didn't give you a bottle of wine for nothing, this question is free.

Here is the Bingshan Restaurant. "

Qin Su suspected that he heard it wrong. He looked around. Homeless people were sitting around empty diesel barrels to keep warm, and food apparently dug out of trash cans was scattered on the ground.

Is this an iceberg restaurant only for rich people?Qin Su suspected that he had been tricked, but he quickly realized that it was not impossible, and there was another important thing.

Qin Su looked at the fat penguin's beer belly: "Next question, are you Oswald Copperpot?"

Hearing Qin Su call out Detail's full name, Cobblepot immediately pulled out his own broken umbrella with nails and blades installed.

"You want to find me? Who sent you here, Ye Xiao!"

Qin Su couldn't recognize this reaction, this movement. The fat beggar in front of him was the penguin from Earth No. [-].

After Qin Su paid another bottle of wine, Penguin dispelled his doubts about Qin Su, and told his experience at Qin Su's request.

Different from the experience of the Penguin in the main universe, after Thomas Wayne Jr. took over the Wayne family, he managed to bring down all the other three major families. The Copperpot family was no exception. The Penguin lived on the streets, but he did not get Falco Appreciation within, because Falcone had been killed by Night Owl.

In fact, the gangsters in Gotham have been completely controlled by Night Owl. Penguin has no future, and he is not willing to be Night Owl's puppet. He chooses to be a beggar and become the emperor of beggars, and this is what he established Iceberg Restaurant, which sells food to all the homeless in Gotham.

"Then why did you name it Bingshan Restaurant?" Qin Su was very puzzled, there is no Bingshan here.

The Penguin pointed to the snow piled up by them: "That's the iceberg on the bright side."

"On the bright side?"

The Penguin stopped, and looked back and forth at Qin Su with his long and narrow eyes, and finally his eyes were fixed: "Want to see the iceberg in the dark, come with me."

He took Qin Su to a "house" assembled from discarded wooden boards, and lifted the bed boards to reveal a manhole cover for a sewer.

"The so-called iceberg is only a small part exposed to the water, and its true face can only be seen clearly under the water."

Qin Su followed and climbed into the sewer, and soon he found that the place below was far cleaner, more spacious, and... lively than he had imagined.

Through the sewer, they came to a wide underground air-raid shelter. Many people gathered here and opened a stall on the spot. It was like a small market, in stark contrast to Gotham on the ground.

Seeing the arrival of Penguin, people greeted each other warmly:

"Penguin brought the newcomers down!"

"Are you a newcomer? Great, we have another strength!"

Qin Su's mouth can be stuffed with a big blue eagle, which doesn't look like a native of Gotham at all.

The Penguin walked into a compartment, and there were two people sitting in it, Qin Su recognized them, one was the double-faced man and the other was the black mask.

Two-Face shouldn't be called Two-Face, he's not disfigured, his face is intact, but he likes flipping coins just as much.

He frowned slightly, and said slightly dissatisfied: "Penguin, you should be on guard outside at this time, instead of wandering around with a suspicious person."

The black mask should not be called the black mask, his skull mask is white, and the texture is very similar to a real skull: "Relax, Knight of Light, we will let the penguin be in charge of the sentry, isn't it because of trust in his ability? Well, since he brought this man here, he must have his reasons."

After finishing speaking, the white mask apologized to Qin Su: "I'm sorry, the current situation is getting worse and worse. Even the court is under the control of Ye Xiao, and the Bright Knight is under great pressure."

Qin Su finally understood why it took an outsider a year to accept the culture of the main universe. After experiencing the same experience, Qin Su found that it was really unbearable.

The Penguin sat down on the seat and introduced the two to Qin Su: "Harvey the Bright Knight and Roman the White Mask, they are the heroic leaders of the rebel army."

The opposite of a villain is a hero, and that makes sense.

Seeing the three of them looking at him, Qin Su decisively fabricated an identity that could not appear here, and said with a calm face and heartbeat:

"Bruce, I'm a detective, you can call me Batman too."

After speaking, he looked at Penguin with a serious face: "Why did you bring me here, I don't think my personality is strong enough to make you trust me."

The two companions also looked at him with puzzled eyes. The Penguin didn't explain, but took out the two bottles of red wine that Qin Su gave him.

At first, the two didn't notice any abnormality, but the Knight of Light quickly realized: "The icon above is reversed!"

Qin Su secretly yelled, he didn't tear off the label on the bottle.

When White Mask heard this, he raised the wine bottle in disbelief, and stared at Qin Su in a daze.

"Is what she said true?"

Qin Su didn't understand, so he asked, "What?"

With a bang, Penguin opened the wine bottle and poured everyone a glass of wine.

"It is predicted that in the future, heroes from another universe will overthrow the criminal syndicate and save our world."
