Chapter 124: 24. The Red Ghost [23/100]

The reception is a way of communication in the upper class. In many cases, the dignitaries and nobles need to put serious matters in less serious situations in order to reach agreement, while in another Sometimes, a cocktail party is held for some special people. Compared with the first occasion, the second one is more casual.

Of course, any reception cannot be purely for entertainment. You have to admit that people in the upper class do everything for a purpose.

The reception at the Wayne Building tonight was held for Gotham’s tomorrow’s rising star, the bright knight Harvey Dent, who brought hope. Bruce Wayne, the real son of Gotham, wanted to Harvey raised a sum of money to support Harvey's "non-bail bill", which was set up separately for the environment in which the Gotham gangs flourished.

According to Harvey’s assumption, in this city where conservative gangs invade, once the crime is found to be above a certain limit, criminals will not be entitled to bail for five years. Obviously, if this bill is If the state court passes, Gotham's security environment will immediately rise to a new level.

But in this country, everything can’t be done without money, so although Harvey Dent doesn’t like this kind of occasion, he has to come and recruit enough funds for the promotion of the Dante Act. At this point, he is extremely grateful to Bruce Wayne, the famous **** of Gotham and the world-renowned rich man.

But what worries Harvey a little is the relationship between Rachel Dows and Bruce Wayne he is pursuing. For Bruce Wayne, Rachel has a special feeling. This has always been known to Harvey, despite her performance It's easy to leave, but obviously, in Rachel's heart, Bruce Wayne is not a dispensable person.

This is also the reason why Harvey pursued for a year, but did not get Rachel's favor, but things are not without progress. They have been dating several times recently, and it can be seen that Rachel began to accept him.

This is a good thing, coupled with the recent gang arrest, Harvey has been in a good mood.

"I said, I will probably participate in such activities often in the future."

Bruce Wayne was choosing the clothes for the reception tonight with the help of Alfred. He said to the old butler with a smile,

"Harvey is doing well. Once his bill is passed, I can "free" and live my life."

There was a frustration on his face, "I really don't like the life of Playboy."

Alfred also smiled, "Of course, I have been looking forward to this day, you see, young master, I am very old, I now urgently hope that I can retire, and then move to Italy or Rome, enjoy You can also learn how to manage a company with Lucius as long as the old man should live. Wayne Industries is your family business after all."

"Ah, forgive me, old Afu, if I want that, I will go crazy."

He smiled, "Yes, how is the home improvement?"

Alfred thought about it, "It's about 3-4 months, you know, Wayne Castle is a large building, not so easy to repair, why, don't you like the life of Wayne Mansion?"

"You can't talk like it or not..."

Bruce stood on the edge of the 25th floor of the Wayne Building and looked at the brightly lit city below. There was a smile on his lips, with a trace of anticipation.

"I just thought, can my wedding with Rachel be in Wayne Castle, so that the ancestors of the Wayne family can see their descendants get married and continue the history of the Wayne family, Afu... I think I am the time Freed from another life."

"Gotham already has a hero under the light, a brave man who can protect the city without wearing a mask, a justice, Harvey Dent, people like him, call him the light knight, He used legal means to solve all the things I could not solve, so let Batman be history, it can't bring hope, and Harvey can."

A trace of worry flashed on the old housekeeper's face, tweeting with a bow tie in his hand

"However, Rachel has been very close to Harvey recently..."

Bruce turned his head with a smile, he patted the rest of the family's shoulders, and smiled gently,

"What's the matter, Afu, are you worried about Rachel being deceived by Harvey? Are you so confident about my charm? I agreed with her. After I finish becoming Bruce Wayne, we will have A good time...in the name of husband and wife."

"Ah, you young people, you can solve it yourself."

Afu smiled and tied his bow tie to Bruce, then moved his shoulder and whispered,

"I'll take a look there. Lucius was there to help you upgrade the data of that detector today. I will come back with him. Before I come back, you have to organize this reception."

"No?"

Bruce said with a headache, "I don't know anything about these things without you."

"You're not even afraid of the gangsters who are fierce, are you still afraid of getting along with these rich people?"

Afu joked, "The owner of the Wayne family can't be so weak."

"Trust me, Afu, the gangsters are much better than them."

Bruce hugged the old housekeeper with a smile, "Come back early."

More than ten minutes later, Alfred walked into the abandoned factory of Wayne Industrials in the Docklands. As usual, he walked into the dim warehouse and pressed a series of codes. The floor of the warehouse sank, which was not bright. Underground, he saw Lucius sitting in front of the computer busy, the current executive of Wayne Industries, at this time, he would become Batman's assistant to help him maintain his use for combat Criminal black technology.

"Lucius, we have to finish our work here tonight early. The reception at Bruce's side may require you to speak on stage. You know, my young master is not very good at this kind of activity. He almost ruined it last time. The reputation of the Wayne family."

Afu took off his jacket and put it in his hand, whispering, but did not get a response from Lucius. The intuition of the ace mercenary once made Afu feel wrong, and he approached Lucius cautiously. , With his left hand reaching into the dark room by the wall, trying to hold the pistol used for self-defense.

But...he felt empty.

"Dear Alfred, are you looking for this?"

A familiar voice sounded from behind him, Alfred's face changed suddenly at this moment, he didn't look back, he knew who it was, he said in an angry voice,

"Saibo! We haven't offended you! We are a partnership, do you want to hurt your friends now?"

"No, no, I never hurt my friends, you are my friend, so is Lucius, and Bruce..."

With a baseball cap and a black trench coat, Saber came out of the shadow behind him and walked to Afu. He helped him straighten his collar and put the pistol in his hand. Lucius, who smiled bitterly, also raised his hands and turned around. In the space next to the computer with a large mask, holding a pistol, Selena, also wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, also stood up.

"Afu, I just need a little help from you."

Cyber ​​Chen said sincerely, "The clown is here, and the madman came for Batman, and I have some "private" contradiction with him... I am happy to help your young master solve that trouble, but I need a set of Protect my armor from the rain of bullets and violent explosions."

Old Afu stared at him squinting, said viciously,

"So you just ran and "borrowed"? In this threatening way?"

Cyber ​​shrugged, with a helpless expression on his face,

"What can I do? You see, I killed so many people. If Bruce knew I was still alive, he would definitely come to "theory" with me. You know, he is quite stubborn in this regard. , Even those scumbags."

He narrowed his eyes, approached Alfred, and whispered in his ear,

"Afu, judging by your wise life experience, do you really think that leaving a mad dog like a clown a life is the right choice? Batman will not kill him, he will only bury himself for future troubles...but I Yes, I can kill him mercilessly and let this hidden danger disappear completely. Don’t forget the story you told me. The madman has made it clear that he came to Bruce. Look, Brother Afu, me and You care about my buddy Bruce."

There was a sneer in the corner of Cyber's mouth,

"So cooperate, Alfred, I will help him solve this trouble completely, just tonight!"

Alfred's expression became serious. He took a step back and looked at Cyber ​​with a trace of distrust. He thought for a moment and asked,

"You mean, the clown will come tonight?"

"Yes, the clown left three goals, that is Lauber's idiot, Judge Celero and Harvey Dent. Lauber is estimated to be dead, we saved Celero, and now, Harvey Dent is in the Wayne Building, and the clown will definitely come."

Cyber ​​smiled, "He "speaks and counts," doesn't he? He will definitely force Bruce to take off his mask, and the madman wants to do this. He wants to make Batman's identity public. He wants to destroy Bruce! We can let him Do you? We can’t!"

He took a deep breath and spread his hands,

"If you don't trust me, Afu, come and kill me with a shot. If you care about your young master's reputation, then cooperate with me and "lend" Bruce's spare armor to me."

"You know, I have enough ability to smooth out this trouble."

He glanced back at Lucius, making a gesture that was not very friendly,

"I’m tired of my monkey version of the gadget. I can’t wait for a genuine gadget that is really used for fighting! Well, my little baby, put down the gun, you see you scare Mr. Lucius What's the matter...sorry to him, okay?"

Selena reluctantly put down her gun. For this 16-year-old girl, she was really excited to be able to come to the secret base of Batman, but because of the conversation between Cyber ​​and Afu, it was depressed The voice, so Batman's identity, she still does not know.

In fact, no normal person will unite Batman who marries at night and the world-renowned rich man. Selena scoffs at such nonsense.

Lucius was free, he looked at Selena, and some saw Cyber, and said quietly,

"Your little girlfriend is very spicy and it really matches you violent."

"Well, this is just a misunderstanding, don't be angry, Brother Lucius!"

Saibo pushed away a few steps under Afu's instructions, rubbed his hands excitedly, and watched Afu press three times in a secret place near the wall. The tightly fitting ground rose at this moment, and a glass cabinet was hidden in Among them, it is a complete set of the latest bat armor after Lucius' four modifications.

Cyber ​​turned around the armor several times, then looked at the time on the phone and said to Lucius,

"It’s enough time, man, let’s remodel this dark paint and make it more aesthetically pleasing...dark red, melee weapon, with gun, yes...the mask is no longer needed, I Bring me the old one, I always like to use old things."

Cyber ​​took out the ghost face twisted in the previous explosion from the back. The flames and explosion made the surface of the ghost mess. The dark red peeled off a lot. It looked like a broken devil's face, but it was It looked more terrible than before, and the black mark left in the burning flame was like three claw marks.

After Cyber ​​brought the ghost face, even Alfred had to admit that, in addition to the strangeness before, it added a more fierce, crazier, and more terrifying momentum to Cyber.

Cyber's voice distorted by a voice changer sounded in this bat cave. He watched Lucius quickly change the painted armor with some complicated device, said quietly,

"I think I'll call it... the red ghost, the ghost crawling out of death... I like the name, yes, my knife is still stored in Harvey, I have to find a chance to get it back, he Will not refuse... Yes."
