章 399: The Debut Show of Batman
"Wow, you're lucky, Mr. Wayne. I have to thank you, and of course, Mr. Gordon. You're definitely a good cop!"
Peter's mood brightened as he started answering questions, and it was a good sign.
Bruce Wayne raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you worried that I just lied to you and deliberately misled you?"
Peter Parker replied with a smile, "Of course, I'm not worried about that, Mr. Wayne. You are Batman, after all, the embodiment of justice in Gotham City."
"An embodiment of justice..." Jim Gordon muttered thoughtfully.
Bruce Wayne, on the other hand, stared at the big screen. He wanted to see if this strange game would really provide future videos.
Peter Parker sensed his thoughts and said, "Mr. Wayne, to be honest, when I first became Spider-Man, I did some foolish things, but I believe you are different."
Batman always gave people the impression of being a bit gloomy, with a deep and low voice, but he was always sharp and reliable.
Peter was also looking forward to seeing how Batman, in the early days of his career, would perform.
At this moment, the big screen began to play the video of the correct answer, as usual.
Players and viewers from various worlds were all focused on the screen. The screen showed Gotham City at night, with towering buildings and bright lights.
However, this city was far from as bright as it appeared.
Jim Gordon was patrolling the streets with his partner. He was sitting in the car. Through the car window, he could see his partner receiving black money, and he couldn't help but frown.
Gordon, who was off-screen, suddenly opened his eyes. "Is this real? My partner does this every day... Wait, is this a live broadcast?"
In the video, his partner returned to the car, took a seat in the passenger's side, slapped a bundle of bills onto Gordon's hand, and grinned. He said to Gordon, "Aren't you going to open these? I might ask again in the future. You might come around someday."
Gordon glanced at him and calmly declined, "Don't think you're clever."
His Partner felt he was being too unfriendly. "Jim, you make the guys nervous by always refusing payment!"
This angered Gordon, making his voice rise a little. "I won't report you!"
Moments later, he became despondent. "Anyway, this entire city is corrupt, and there's nowhere to report."
His partner was grinning happily compared to Gordon's depression.
Peter Parker frowned and said, "Mr. Gordon, you're a good cop, but your partner isn't. What's worse, the whole world knows it now!"
Jim Gordon had recovered from the shock. He shook his head and sighed, "So what? Gotham City will always be Gotham City."
"The city I live in is in a similar state," Arthur laughed twice, smiling a little bashfully. "By the way, it's also called Gotham City. Quite a coincidence, isn't it?"
Jim Gordon rolled his eyes upon hearing this. "It seems that no matter which world you're in, Gotham City will always be like this."
While they were talking, the video camera showed a stealthy young man on a rooftop, dressed in tights with a black hood over his head.
"Hey, is that you? Mr. Wayne..." Peter Parker's eyes widened, momentarily unable to recognize him.
In the video, Bruce Wayne wore a hood with only his eyes and nose visible. He was dressed like one of those criminals...
Bruce Wayne feels a bit embarrassed. He had anticipated that his video would surface but never expected his future self to be dressed in such an 'amateur' style. Where did things go wrong?
The video then panned to show Jim Gordon returning to the police station after patrolling the streets. It was late, and police officers like his partner had already gone home for the day. However, Gordon continued to work alone in the dimly lit office.
Diligent police officers were not uncommon elsewhere but in Gotham City... Jim Gordon seemed out of place. When everything around was dark, and you were the only one in normal colors, it became something extraordinary.
Many viewers watching the live broadcast couldn't help but feel the same way. Gotham City was just too dark!
Especially for the locals, they had a lot of grievances. In their eyes, this city was the darkest place on Earth. They lived in constant danger.
In the video, the diligent Jim Gordon encountered trouble. There was someone behind him in the darkness, holding a gun to the back of his head.
A deep voice came from the darkness, "Don't turn around. Good cops like you are a rarity."
Obviously, this mysterious and elusive person was Bruce Wayne, the newly debuted Batman.
In the video, Jim Gordon looked a bit panicked, after all, having a gun pointed at your head wasn't a pleasant experience.
"What do you want?" he asked.
He also maintained a still posture, avoiding angering the mysterious person behind him.
Bruce Wayne asked in a deep voice, "Carmine Falcone brings in illegal goods every week, but no one arrests him. Why?"
Jim Gordon replied honestly, "He's bought off the authorities."
"How can we make him stumble?" Bruce Wayne asked in a low voice.
Jim Gordon suggested, "Put pressure on Judge Faden and find a prosecutor with enough courage to indict him."
Clearly, he had been planning this for a while, which was why he could provide such a detailed plan when Bruce Wayne asked. Perhaps Jim Gordon had intended to secretly carry out this plan himself.
Bruce Wayne gave the name, "Rachel Dawes."
She was his childhood friend and the current prosecutor, someone who detested evil and dared to act. She was the right person for the job.
They reached an agreement, but when Jim Gordon asked about Batman's identity, Bruce deliberately didn't reveal much, only telling him to pay attention to the marks he left behind.
Jim Gordon also asked if he was alone, and Bruce Wayne's answer was cryptic, "No, now we are two."
"We?" Jim Gordon questioned.
The gun barrel at the back of his head moved away, and he turned to see a figure leaping out of the window.
He immediately gave chase, following the figure to the rooftop. He even drew his gun to stop him. Bruce Wayne, on the other hand, didn't pay him any attention. He leapt from the rooftop to a lower level, but the jump didn't go smoothly...
