Phantom Thief Kidd in the Comic World
Chapter 156 The boulder falls (two in one)
(Today I will continue the two-in-one update. I decided to update the two updates together in the future, so the time will be before midnight)
There are a lot of survivors hiding out in Gotham High, and that's good news.
McGison thinks he has a certain understanding of Gordon's youngest son, James Jr.
Different from the perverted criminal characters in comics, although little James here has a naughty personality, he is still kind-hearted.
James Jr., like his sister Barbara, is a fan of Batman.
But when it comes to Batman taking the initiative to take responsibility for killing Harvey Dent, little James doesn't compromise with reality like his sister.
He never accepted Batman being wronged for no reason.
Jim Gordon's silence on this matter made James Jr. even more dissatisfied. He believed that his father should not cover up a lie.
Otherwise, how could he deserve the title of Gotham's only remaining light of justice?
Harvey Dent's will could not resist the clown's corruption, and he committed a series of brutal murders.
He even kidnapped him and his sister to blackmail Gordon.
Why let Batman take the blame for Harvey?
Just to implement the Dent Act?
The young James didn't understand why the implementation of a bill must be in Harvey's name, and why Harvey Dent must be an image of light and justice.
In fact, in Gotham at that time, no prosecutor except Harvey Dent dared to go head-to-head with the Gotham gang.
Before meeting the Joker, Harvey was indeed the Knight of Light.
Even Bruce respects Harvey from the bottom of his heart.
To put it bluntly, Harvey Dent is the future star of Gotham.
If everyone knew that even Harvey Dent would fall one day, then others would be even less trustworthy.
If the government wants to introduce a new bill, no matter what the original intention is, it will be misinterpreted as a conspiracy theory.
In addition, those gangsters are adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes.
The obstruction was simply unimaginable.
What about the other way around?
In order to defend the law, Harvey Dent did not hesitate to fight against the gangsters. Even if his face was disfigured, he did not give up the justice in his heart.
Eventually died tragically at the hands of darkness.
Stimulated by this kind of script, every Gotham citizen will deeply feel the death of Harvey Dent.
Carrying out the Dent Act, one of Harvey's dying wishes, would be popular.
In the wave of the entire Gotham people, the gangsters' obstruction is like a mantis's arm acting as a cart, unable to turn over any waves.
This created eight years of peace in Gotham.
Therefore, Barbara can understand her father. She knows Gordon's inner struggle and entanglement, but he is helpless after all.
Little James can't understand it, or maybe he understands it, but he doesn't agree with it.
In short, the father-son relationship between James Jr. and Gordon is very stiff, but the relationship between his sister and McGison is getting along well.
McGison and Charlie walked into the school.
Gotham Middle School is the largest junior high school in the city. It has seven six-story teaching buildings, two nine-story laboratory buildings, one five-story administrative building, an outdoor playground with a standard 400-meter track, and an indoor gymnasium.
There is also a three-story library.
If you include the cafeteria and dormitories, five or six more buildings will be added.
Many high schools don’t have such a large complex.
But now this junior high school has become a ruin.
The experimental building, administrative building and teaching building were washed away by large quantities of explosives, leaving only two or three buildings that did not completely collapse.
Magidson even saw a small half-missile from a damaged teaching building. This kind of missile is generally used as a standard weapon on armed helicopters.
"There's someone hiding in the toilet over there."
Charlie's little paw pointed at the ruins of a building not far away.
McGison looked over and saw a row of lonely bathroom stalls surrounded by rubble.
There is also a sign for the women's restroom painted on it.
"Well, it looks like the one hiding here is a girl."
Now was not the time to worry about whether it was the women's bathroom, so McGison picked up Charlie and ran over.
"Hey, there's someone in there, are you okay?"
Magison shouted politely first, but there was no response from the person hiding inside.
So, McGison had no choice but to open the compartment door directly.
"Don't come near me!"
A rather childish female voice came into McGison's ears.
As the compartment was fully unfolded, the girl hiding inside also revealed her true face.
This is a blond girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a pair of black headphones, a brown jacket, and a shirt with a red collar around the collar and the rest being blue.
The red and blue are separated by three closely spaced gold W stripes, the same stripes on the outer jacket.
It was obvious that she was not Caucasian, because the girl's skin was naturally bronze and her figure was streamlined and very beautiful.
The slightly bulging biceps told McGison that this girl must exercise regularly.
The girl was seen tightly covering the earphones on both sides with her hands, making them stick tightly to her ears.
No wonder McGison didn't respond when he called her just now. It was strange that she could hear the sound.
One thing was strange. McGison noticed that the girl's eyes did not show any emotion such as "fear" or "horror". On the contrary, she could only see "wariness" in them.
What's even weirder is that there seems to be a fighting spirit hidden deep in her eyes...
Magison was a little curious about the girl's identity, but now he had more pressing matters to ask her.
He slowly stretched out his hand towards the girl's head, trying to take off the headphones on her head.
Unexpectedly, the moment McGison's hand touched the earphones, the girl's eyes instantly became sharp.
She violently shook McGison's hand away from her head, and then took her hand away from the headphones for the first time.
He put his hands on the baffle of the cubicle next to him and pushed hard to easily cross over and enter another cubicle.
This skill is quite rare for a young girl. In Magison's memory, Barbara did not have such smooth skills at this age.
"Hey girl, I don't mean any harm, you need to take off your headphones so we can talk."
McGison had no choice but to go to another cubicle. This time he did not approach rashly, but pointed to the headphones the girl was wearing, hoping that the girl would understand what he meant.
"No need, I can hear you, and these headphones are not mine."
Unexpectedly, the girl actually answered McGison's words.
"Okay, so can you tell me your name? Are there any other surviving student teachers? Where are they? I'm here to help you."
Magison asked with a smile.
"Cassie Sandmark, that's my name."
The girl, Cassie, replied.
"You said you were here to help us, are you a police officer? Or a firefighter?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm neither of those things you're talking about."
McGison shrugged and said.
"Then how do I know if you are a bad person?"
Cassie stared at McGison's face warily.
"And you look so weird, you look like a monkey."
"Woof woof! (Someone is coming this way)"
At this time, Charlie suddenly ran over and bit McGison's trousers.
In front of outsiders, it cannot speak human language.
But with the translator Konjac, McGison can understand the dog's language.
The message conveyed by Charlie made his eyes gleam.
"Woof woof woof! (There is only one other person, and it does not smell like an adult)"
Hearing this, McGison felt a little relieved.
"Is this your pet, Uncle Monkey?"
Cassie looked down at Charlie, blinked and asked.
"I kind of believe you are not a bad person now, because only good people raise cute dogs."
"Yes, it's called Charlie."
Magison knelt down and touched Charlie's little head and introduced.
"Also, it's very rude to call someone Uncle Monkey."
"But I don't know your name."
Cassie tilted her head, confused.
"My name? You can call me... Lupine III."
----------
On the other side, after Barbara and Pamela separated, they went straight to gcpd.
She encountered some gangsters and thugs on the road, but she dealt with them all.
The location of gcpd is not far from Robinson Park, and Barbara arrived here in less than an hour.
When Barbara set foot on this familiar land again, her heart suddenly became cold.
"Oh no."
There is no one alive in the current gcpd. The entire police station has been burned by fire for many days, and the originally white walls are now as black as charcoal.
Barbara walked into the gcpd's weapons depot and found that it was also empty.
Needless to say, Bane must have removed all the weapons.
"Tell me, why does the leader want us to patrol this miserable place every day?"
Suddenly, a voice came from outside, accompanied by footsteps.
Barbara quickly hid behind the door of the weapons warehouse, listened carefully and confirmed that there were only two people outside.
"Who knows what the leader is thinking, but not all of the GCPD police officers are dead, especially their chief Jim Gordon. His whereabouts are unknown now. There is no trace of him in the police hospital. Instead, two brothers died. "
"Perhaps the leader is worried that after Jim Gordon escapes, he may join up with the remaining police officers."
Another of Bain's men answered the man's question.
"The situation in the city has been complicated recently. Many brothers have died inexplicably. It may be the work of the remnants of Gordon's gang...or it may be the work of other gangs. Maybe one day the two of us will die inexplicably."
The person who asked the question sighed.
"They just said that Jim Gordon is not in the hospital... It seems that Dad did not have an irreversible accident."
The information revealed in the conversation between the two made Barbara feel happy.
"If Dad wasn't in the hospital, where would he be?"
"And the surviving police officers, where will they be hiding..."
Barbara was lost in thought.
"Have you finished checking over there?"
"It's no different than before, what about you?"
"There's nothing new here. It's time to take a look at the weapons arsenal."
Two people's shouts came from outside, and Barbara narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Bang!"
The large iron door of the weapons depot was opened by two inspectors, and there was nothing inside.
"After the inspection, we can finally go back."
The two walked in, walked around and walked out, leaving gcpd.
After they were gone, Barbara came down from the ceiling.
She had just used the rope launcher to anchor herself to the ceiling of the weapons warehouse, evading inspection.
"Although I haven't found my father's whereabouts, at least I know he is still alive. That's enough."
A big stone in my heart has finally fallen, but there is still another big stone left.
"Go back to Robinson Park first and wait for the news about Pamela."
Barbara quietly exited the gcpd and walked to the base of Robinson Park.
What she didn't realize was that in a deep alley near GCPD, a looming figure was watching her silently...
----------
"Lupine...the third generation?"
Cassie's brows knit together, why is this name so strange?
"Woof woof! (That person is almost here)"
Charlie reminded Magisson again.
"Shh, someone is coming here."
McGison immediately motioned to Cassie to stay quiet, then turned around and waited for the person Charlie was talking about.
Not long after, faint footsteps came from the darkness.
The sound is getting louder and louder, indicating that the person is getting closer and closer.
"Hey, Cassie, look what I found. You won't believe it. I'm holding a piece of cheese and ham..."
It was a boy's voice, probably about Cassie's age.
The corners of McGison's mouth curled up slightly, and he recognized who the owner of the voice was.
It was James Gordon Jr. he was looking for on this trip.
I saw a well-proportioned boy running out of the darkness with a happy smile on his face.
In his hands he held a large bag filled with various kinds of food.
In addition to the big bag, little James also held a sandwich wrapped in a plastic bag.
However, when he saw a man in a red suit with a monkey face standing next to Cassie, his joyful words stopped abruptly.
Instead, there was vigilance and...anger!
"Who are you and what do you want to do to Cassie?"
Little James put the big bag in his hand on the ground, and then assumed an attack posture.
He and his sister studied Cali martial arts for a period of time. Although he is not as talented as Barbara, it can still give little James a good fighting ability.
At the age of fourteen or fifteen, before his body has fully grown, he can already defeat normal adults.
"It's okay, little James, his name is Lupine, he's not a bad guy."
Cassie ran over and stood in front of little James.
I saw her taking off the headphones she was wearing on her head that she didn't want McGison to touch, and then stuffed them into little James's hand.
"I like your headphones, thank you for lending them to me."
Cassie picked up the big bag on the ground again and counted the contents.
"You brought back a lot of food this time, butter bread, toast bread, compressed biscuits, chocolate bars... enough for everyone to eat for two days."
"Your name is Lupine?"
Little James looked sideways at McGison, "Why do you want to come here?"
"Cassie said you're not a bad person, and I'm not going to question her judgment."
"But that doesn't mean we will accept you. You don't look like a policeman or a soldier. You have nothing on you. I'm curious how you survived in Gotham."
"If you are just asking for some food, please forgive me for refusing. There are still a dozen hungry lower-grade students in the school, and this food is for them."
Little James said without any doubt.
