American Comics: Omniscience, Omnipotence, Begins With The Aged of Wolverine
43: Catwoman, Riddler appears! One last thing before heading to the Metropolis!
DC Gotham.
At this moment, it is in the evening, and the residual sun is slanting.
The upper half of the city is dyed golden by the setting sun, and the lower half sinks into shadow.
Chen Tian walked through the streets of the city, passing by the wrong pedestrians, most of them with the fatigue of work on their faces.
The breeze swept the corners of the newspaper in his hand, and every line on it smelled of fresh ink, which was the freshly baked city evening newspaper.
"The penguin man was killed."
Chen Tian looked at the headlines of Copote's shooting in Gotham Market, narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered.
Flipping through the newspapers, you can see that the headline on the other side reads: "The new mayor has the majority of the citizens and will take office." ”
The man in a white suit who appeared on the newspaper page has a square and angular face that exudes a sense of righteousness, and his posture is majestic and tall, as if he is a righteous partner.
"Now this guy can be said to be a completely good person, but unfortunately..."
Chen Tian recognized the identity of the other party, the future two-faced man Harvey. Dante, a man who sees the city as a writer.
He sighed in a low voice and continued to read the rest of the newspaper.
Seeing that most of the reports were that Batman had assassinated the former mayor, Chen Tian shook his head.
He knows that although Batman is hiding in the dark, he has always adhered to his principle of not killing.
There are other people who shoot and kill -
Bruce. Wayne's butler Affryd.
Definitely has no interest in clarifying the truth, anyway, the Batman guy carries enough negative speculation, and it is estimated that Bruce himself does not care.
After reading all the reports, Chen Tian put down the newspaper and cast his gaze on the surrounding neighborhood.
At this moment, he had reached an old neighborhood where most of the buildings exuded an old atmosphere, and pedestrians were gradually becoming scarce.
Now that winter is getting colder, you can see smoke billowing from the dumpsters, and many homeless people are crouching in front of makeshift shacks, burning garbage to keep warm.
The walls are littered with colorful lines and messy graffiti.
On the street, there are young people with thin hands and feet and pale complexion squatting on the ground in twos and threes, picking and choosing cigarette butts that have been thrown down.
Looking at such a strange cultural scene in Gotham City.
Chen Tian felt the dirty and messy atmosphere coming to the surface, thinking that he had come to the slum.
Dadada——
A crisp and swift sound of footsteps suddenly approached quickly from behind him.
Before Chen Tian could turn around, he smelled a faint fragrance, and the tip of his nose moved, feeling that the smell was very good.
"I'm being followed, can I temporarily disguise my boyfriend?"
At this time, he saw a woman following him, and the other party lowered his voice and said in a slightly panicked tone, "Don't look back, otherwise it will be very troublesome to expose." ”
However, Chen Tian, who has the ability of the heart, knew that the woman was lying, but did not immediately expose it, but looked at the woman in front of him.
The other party is only half a head shorter than himself.
He has long brown hair that reaches up to his shoulders, his skin is as smooth as cream, and his facial features are delicate and charming.
It's a pity that the autumn clothes on his body are heavy, and the whole person is tightly wrapped.
Chen Tian raised his eyebrows and felt that she was familiar, but he couldn't immediately determine the identity of the other party.
At this moment, a cold voice sounded in his head.
"Battle detected, drop reward: high level theft (Catwoman)!"
Hearing this voice, Chen Tian reacted, the other party is not Catwoman Selina. Kyle?
It seems that the so-called being tracked in the mouth of this habitual thief is probably just to steal his wallet.
Not an estimate.
Chen Tian, who had obtained all the ability of the other party's theft, had realized that his wallet had fallen into the hands of the other party in the past few seconds of contact.
At the same time, he instinctively judged all the details of Catwoman's theft.
"Those people are gone, thank you."
At this time, Catwoman, who had her wallet in hand, whispered thanks and was ready to leave.
Syllable!
As soon as she took half a step, her hand holding her wallet was directly detained by Chen Tian.
At the same time, the latter's slightly mocking voice sounded in Catwoman's ears: "Since you want to thank you can't be so hasty." ”
"What are you going to do?"
Catwoman was confused, her brows furrowed and wanted to resist, but she found that the teenager in front of her, who looked not much stronger than herself, had amazing strength in her hands.
Unable to resist, he staggered and pulled her into a coffee shop not far away.
"No one is following you out there, right?"
Chen Tian brought Catwoman to the bar and looked at the latter with a smile.
"I didn't expect to meet an expert, I confessed."
Seeing this, Catwoman knew that she was exposed, and she was a little discouraged and handed over her wallet directly, her eyebrows lowered and pitiful.
"It's not okay to admit the mistake just like this, the wallet is originally my thing, and you don't have to pay any price for returning it to me."
Chen Tian took back his wallet and smiled playfully, "Maybe you should treat me to a cup of coffee, otherwise you don't want to go directly to the police to confess your mistake, this young lady." ”
"But....."
Catwoman's eyes widened, scanning the price of the menu and crying, no matter what kind of coffee was so expensive that she felt distressed.
Just looking back at Chen Tian still smiling at himself, as if saying that he would call the police if he didn't ask for coffee.
Catwoman suddenly softened and ordered the cheapest cup of coffee with the pain of the flesh.
"Drink it! I'm going to watch you drink it all, not a drop is allowed to be wasted!" ”
Wait until the coffee is ready.
She was angry that Roar Roar brought it to Chen Tian, and her big dark eyes were full of resentment.
Because of a cup of coffee, the already difficult economic situation is even worse.
Chen Tian took a sip of coffee and looked at Catwoman's face as dark as a resentful woman, feeling funny in his heart.
Catwoman in this period doesn't seem to have grown up yet, not a few years older than him.
There is still a lot of naivety in behavior and psychology, but there is a lot of room waiting to be developed when it can be bumped up.
Then.
The news from the store's television caught Chen Tian's attention.
"Six government personnel were killed in Gotham City last night, and riddles were left at the scene of the murder..."
"The Gotham police have identified the suspect as 'Riddler' and are making every effort to arrest it..."
Chen Tian turned his head to look at it, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"The Riddler has begun to show up in Gotham, but he can meet this guy before going to the Metropolis."
He came interested.
At this time, Catwoman next to him saw that Chen Tian's attention was focused on the TV, and quickly took the opportunity to slip away quietly.
She didn't know that after she left, Chen Tian chuckled, took a sip of coffee.
If Chen Tian were willing, a hundred Catwomen would not be able to escape his control.
But he still has a lot to do, and there is no need to bring a woman with him.
Wait until you have time to play with her.
..........
The other side.
Catwoman, who had already run into the alley outside, was full of remorse.
"Damn! Damn it! Damn it! ”
She clenched her fists and tried her best to vent, her expression was indignant, "If the wallet is not stolen, forget it, and put a cup of coffee money into it!" ”
"How can coffee be so expensive?!"
Catwoman frowned, thinking of the price of that cup of coffee becoming more and more distressed, "That shop is really ... They can obviously grab it directly, and they will even give customers a cup of coffee! ”
After walking through the streets and sighing for a while, Catwoman's mood calmed down a little.
"The Riddler... Someone is going to be in bad luck! ”
She remembered the news she had just seen in the coffee shop, frowning angrily and muttering to herself.
