Irin leisurely strolled around the city.
He was the type that idled around.
He didn't find Pan Zhengyi.
Li Erpang, Su Xiaosu, and Zhu Yun 'er didn't seem to have caused any trouble.
Walking on the road, Gotham City seemed to have returned to its peaceful and warm atmosphere.
What a simple and honest Gotham City.
However, the dark cloud above their heads made them feel like there was a giant palm pressing down on the sky above Gotham City. It gave them a suffocating feeling that made it hard to breathe.
After setting up the bomb at the "crime scene", Irin found the most convenient route to the GBC Broadcasting Company headquarters.
The process was smooth.
There weren't any dramatic accidents.
After all, the only person that actually faced Irin was James Gordon Jr.
He didn't immediately take out his phone to take pictures.
Irin also wore an elegant gentleman's hat and habitually avoided the camera from capturing his face.
Therefore, even though he was now the "infamous" supervillain of Gotham City, there was no warrant for his arrest yet.
Walking on the road, Irin was like an elegant noble. Instead, there were a lot of blonde girls who gave him "hot" looks.
At the TV station, Irin left the announcement letter and left.
He didn't stay for too long.
Like Pan Zhengyi, he would never do something like barging into the innermost part of the GBC.
After all, it was meaningless.
— Just blow it up and be done with it.
Of course, other than the explosion, Irin was also thinking about other possible ways to quickly gain a large amount of "crime points".
This … He had to refer to the methods of the older generation of villains.
The puzzle was sent out.
The bomb was also set up.
Since there was still time, Irin took a taxi and went to the outskirts of the city.
— He took a taxi.
After crossing the Robert H. Kahn Memorial Bridge, Irin spent about 40 minutes to arrive at the ruins of Wayne Manor, located in the north of Gotham City.
What were ruins?
The former Wayne Manor was now in ruins.
This was not recorded in The Legend of Batman.
After all, the author didn't know that Bruce Wayne was Batman.
Irin had heard this from Fatso.
Besides, even if Bruce Wayne openly held a press conference and said, "I, Bruce Wayne, Batman!"
All the reporters would probably have the same reaction — —
"Look! Our rich and humorous Gotham's richest man, Bruce Wayne, is joking again! "
Who the hell would believe that!
So, even now, after Batman had disappeared for twenty years, no one knew that Bruce Wayne, who was still a playboy every day, was the famous Batman of the past.
Wayne Manor had become a tourist attraction.
However, it wasn't too prosperous.
When Yi Lin arrived, there were a few tourists who were taking photos with great interest.
As for the locals of Gotham?
They were tired of looking at it after twenty years. There wasn't much to look at in the first place.
The huge ruins of the manor were now open to everyone.
There were no special protective measures.
After all, it was really just a normal ruin.
According to the Irin's estimation, even if he wasted a few TNT bombs to blow this place up even more, he wouldn't earn much Sin Points.
So, Irin was too lazy to do anything.
After avoiding the gazes of the other tourists, Irin found a place where there was no one and released Bai Xiaoyi.
"Why is it me again!"
After the transparent spirit body, Bai Xiaoyi, came out, she stared at Irin angrily.
After many uses, the experience points of the Spirit Weapon, Blood Jasmine, had increased by a lot.
It wouldn't be long before it could be upgraded from Level E to Level D.
The corresponding change at the moment was that Bai Xiaoyi's spirit body, which was originally almost transparent, seemed to be slightly more solid than before.
However, if one didn't look carefully, one might not be able to tell at a glance.
Perhaps after leveling up, the Spirit Weapon would have more practical functions.
Irin was looking forward to it.
"You have a problem?" Irin glanced at Bai Xiaoyi in the air.
"Hmph!" Bai Xiaoyi's delicate nose twitched slightly and let out a soft snort.
"Do you believe that I won't call you Wang Cai in the future?"
"…"
"Come, Xiao Bai, go underground and take a look."
"…"
Why are my eyes always filled with tears?
Because I hate Master so much, you bastard!
Although Bai Xiaoyi was somewhat unwilling in her heart.
She was a little confused as to why her master would always order her around and not her "mother".
However, in order to avoid being called "Wang Cai", Bai Xiaoyi could only silently drill into the ground.
Compared to "Wang Cai" … "Xiao Bai" was ten thousand times better!
When Bai Xiaoyi sank into the ground, Irin closed his eyes at the same time and switched to "Bai Xiaoyi's" vision.
With his current spiritual attribute, he couldn't fully utilize the effects of "Psychokinesis".
It was as if the spiritual lock had only loosened a little, but it wasn't completely unlocked.
The reason should be … his attributes weren't enough.
He had a lot of applications related to this in the future, but he couldn't use them.
A mere 21 meters of psychokinesis detection was too short.
The "vision" of a spirit body was different from that of a human Irin. It was more like "sensing".
They didn't have retina and weren't affected by light.
One minute later-
A huge hole suddenly appeared in front of Irin's "eyes".
"So this is the legendary bat cave?"
Li Erpang didn't lie about this.
Bai Xiaoyi circled around the Batcave. In the corner of the Batcave, there was an elevator that was so damaged that it could not be used anymore. It seemed to be the passageway that Bruce Wayne used to "transform" in the past.
Other than the damaged elevator, there was nothing special about this place.
Gradually, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Irin's forehead.
As Bai Xiaoyi got further and further away from him, his Spiritual Energy Value was being consumed more and more.
"Come back!"
After confirming that he didn't find anything, Irin summoned Bai Xiaoyi back.
Bai Xiaoyi returned to Irin's body unhappily. Irin was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. He had consumed more than half of his Spiritual Energy Value, and it finally started to slowly recover.
"So, there really isn't anything?"
Irin's expression was calm.
He wasn't too surprised by the empty bat cave.
This Gotham City had already deviated from the path that Li Erpang knew. It had changed beyond recognition.
It felt like … there were many things that weren't right.
Although Irin had some clues, due to the lack of information, he couldn't completely smooth out the structure of the entire plot.
This trip to Wayne Manor was just a convenient way for Irin to confirm some of his thoughts.
Irin didn't actually expect to find the equipment left behind by Batman in the bat cave.
If he could really find it … Irin would think that it was a trap.
The kind that would trap people without burying their bodies.
…
…
"F * ck!"
Just as GBC broadcast the news to the entire city.
In another part of Gotham City.
In a public toilet.
In the female toilet.
Li Erpang, who was quietly hiding in the toilet, couldn't help but curse when he heard the content of the broadcast!
Forgive Fat Lord for being uncultured. He could go anywhere with a single curse.
He had been tricked by that kid again!
Li Erpang initially thought that the guy was too high-profile and weird. However, after thinking about it for a while, he realized what was going on.
Had that kid's brain been damaged by a shovel?
Why were there traps everywhere?!
Just as Li Erpang was cursing …
The panicked voices of a few women came from the nearby toilet.
When Li Erpang saw that his act of breaking into the female toilet had been exposed, he pulled up his pants and ran out in a panic.
[Successfully broke into the female toilet, gained + 2 sin points!]
[Caused a commotion after breaking into the female toilet, gained + 1 sin points!]
Hmm, this wasn't a loss.
Li Erpang took a bite of the chicken drumstick. It was just snatched, so it was still warm.
After coming out of the female toilet, Li Erpang looked around while eating the chicken drumstick. He wasn't sure if it was because Chief Gordon was hospitalized because of the cerebral hemorrhage, but there weren't many criminals in Gotham City today.
The group of good citizens who chased Fatso down eighteen streets yesterday weren't in this area today.
"It's safe for now …"
Li Erpang let out a sigh of relief. He quickly finished the chicken drumstick in his hand and threw the chicken bones on the ground. He patted his bulging belly and burped. He then started to think about his next move.
[Littering in Gotham City, gained + 1 sin points!]
"…"
"Ahhh!"
[Spitting in Gotham City, gained + 1 sin points!]
"…"
So this was how sin points were calculated?
The lives of the people in Gotham City weren't worth much!
Li Erpang seemed to have found a new way to earn points.
However, he didn't continue.
At this rate, if he really reached 1,000,000 Sin Points, his saliva would have dried up before he could even finish collecting the Sin Points.
It wasn't worth it.
"That kid …"
"F * ck! Ahhhhh!"
Li Erpang looked up to the sky and screamed.
He finally understood.
Why Irin was so willing to give away the key item to earn sin points, the TNT bomb.
Although it was a trade, everyone knew that in this second main mission, if he wanted to earn a large amount of sin points in a short period of time and become the rising star of Gotham City, he couldn't just kill people.
How was he going to fill up the 1,000,000 sin points with his measly 10 points?
Just by looking at how Irin blew up two places and earned 100,000 … as long as you were a fool, you would know that explosions were the correct way to start the second main mission.
Explosions were the romance of men!
However …
Irin made a name for himself as the "Riddler Gentleman" on the first night.
At first, Fatso didn't understand why Irin would use such a complicated method to commit crimes in Gotham.
Now, he understood.
Irin was imitating the way the villains of Gotham did things.
Crazy.
Lawless.
But full of charm.
This was the way to make Gotham go crazy!
This was also the true meaning of the main mission description, "Restore Gotham to its former glory"!
He wanted to be a charming villain!
In Gotham City, which villain didn't have a lot of fans?
The legendary Joker could be said to be Gotham's number one superstar!
Moreover, now that Irin had released the crime notice, no matter when Fatso and the others blew up, where they blew up, and what position they used to blow up, the crime points would most likely fall on Irin's head!
Everyone would think that this was the crime committed by the "Riddler Gentleman"!
"Unless …"
Li Erpang suddenly lowered his head and patted his belly.
Duang。
Bouncy and strong.
"Wait."
Li Erpang suddenly had a wonderful idea.
Very, very wonderful.
…
…
Gotham City.
Because the Riddler Gentleman's riddle that no one could solve had become a hot topic.
Everyone knew the riddle of the Riddler Gentleman.
But no one could guess it.
After James Gordon Jr. was discharged from the hospital, he suddenly regretted that he didn't take a picture of that d * mn guy at the top of the clock tower.
Maybe he should have opened fire without saying anything?
Even if he posted a wanted poster now, he could only describe him as a black tuxedo and a gentleman's hat.
But this kind of attire was the standard attire of many male nobles in Gotham City when they went out to flirt with girls. If not a thousand, there were at least a few hundred of them. In the vast sea of people, it would be difficult to find the "Riddler Gentleman" just based on this.
What James Gordon Jr. didn't know was that even if the "Riddler Gentleman" walked near him, he might not even notice him.
Moreover, James Gordon Jr. still didn't understand how the Riddler Gentleman magically disappeared in front of his eyes that day at the top of the clock tower.
It was full of mysteries.
【15:00】
Looking down at his watch, James Gordon Jr. felt even more anxious.
There wasn't much time left.
He had already written down the riddle that was broadcasted on the GBC channel on a piece of paper.
He took out the riddle and looked at it carefully.
"First of all, the time … From the looks of it, it is most likely after dusk. Gotham's sunset is around 18: 00. Could it be at that time? "
"The sea of knowledge … Could it be … Gotham City Public Library?"
Soon, James Gordon Jr. gave up on this stupid idea.
He had already been deceived once.
There were almost no useless sentences in that guy's riddle.
In other words, only by deciphering every sentence, could he find out where the "Riddler Gentleman" committed the crime.
Wait a minute.
Could it be that this time, the Riddler Gentleman guessed his thoughts and purposely mystified him?
It was not impossible.
“Shit！”
James Gordon Jr. wanted to tear the piece of paper in his hand, swallow it, and poop it out.
— To relieve the hatred in his heart.
…
…
Top Floor, Wayne Building.
Bruce Wayne sat at the head of the bed with a towel wrapped around his waist.
There was a bottle of red wine beside him.
It was still daytime.
A sleeping girl was lying on the round bed with her back facing Bruce. There was a seductive curve on the blanket.
— Ah, this curve is so white. Ah no, this curve is so white.
Actually, there were two girls.
Of course, this was not important.
Bruce's mind was very clear and calm.
There were no distracting thoughts.
— After all, he had just finished.
He frowned and was also thinking about the riddle.
"Gotham City Public Library?"
"S.T.A.R Laboratory?"
"Or Gotham Zoo?"
"The King of Gotham … Heh, don't tell me he is trying to kill Gordon The Elder?"
In the riddle, Bruce read a few key points.
It was quite obvious.
But subconsciously, combined with the previous riddle, Bruce's sharp intuition told him that things were not that simple.
The Riddle Gentleman was more difficult to deal with than the Riddle Man.
The Riddle Man's personality … liked to show off.
If he saw that others could not guess his riddle, the Riddle Man could not help but reveal a little "hint" to show his wisdom that was far beyond ordinary people.
In the past, Batman defeated the Riddle Man in this way.
But the Riddle Gentleman was different.
Silence.
Calmness.
Elegance.
And … unscrupulous.
The Riddle Man once said, "You don't understand … I really don't want to leave any clues for you. I really don't want to go back to Arkham Asylum anymore. But I still left clues for you. So, I … I have to go back there. Because I may need help. I … I may actually be crazy. "
The Riddle Man, Edward, left clues for his crimes because he had no choice.
But this Eduard Rin, on the other hand, hoped that no one could guess his riddle so that his crimes could be carried out smoothly.
Then, the meaning of his riddle … What was the meaning of his riddle?
Bruce, on the other hand, thought of something deeper.
Beyond the riddle itself.
"Hey, baby ~"
Suddenly, four snow-white arms wrapped around Bruce.
"I'm busy …"
"Bruce, baby, we have some ideas …"
"…"
Bruce had no choice but to put on his "mask" again.
After all, he was now the richest man in the world, Bruce Wayne!
…
…
West of Gotham City.
Gotham University.
【17:58】
Not long after school.
Students wearing short skirts, long legs, and blonde wavy hair were happily enjoying their time after class and discussing where to go tonight.
"Do you think those 'criminals' will show up again tonight?"
"I think so?"
"That Riddle Gentleman is so handsome! I really want to see him with my own eyes! "
"Bah! So what if you see the Riddle Gentleman? "
"Of course … hehehe … we'll do it!"
"And then?"
"Kill him! He's a criminal! Death penalty! "
"Let the Riddle Gentleman die on the bed, how romantic —"
A few female students with a youthful stench were giggling as they walked.
On the square of Gotham University.
There was a huge statue that was nine meters tall.
This statue was the mayor of Gotham City, James Gordon himself.
— "Statue of the Great Gordon."
It was also one of Gotham's famous landmarks.
Every year, many tourists from outside Gotham City would come to Gotham University to take photos with the "Statue of the Great Gordon."
This statue was built after Mayor Gordon took office, and it had a history of almost 20 years.
Sunset.
It was about to descend from the mountains in the west.
Only a faint glimmer of stubbornness could be seen.
Under the golden sunset, the "Statue of the Great Gordon" seemed to be covered with a layer of holy light, and students passing by could not help but take a few more glances.
"Wow!"
At this moment, a photographer saw this scene and could not help but snap pictures.
【18:00】。
Boom!
There was a loud explosion.
The Statue of the Great Gordon was torn apart in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, it became the dust of history.
…
…
"What? The Statue of the Great Gordon was blown up??? "
The moment he received the notification, James Gordon Jr. was dumbfounded.
His brain seemed to have crashed as he put down the phone.
Why?
Why was it Gotham University?
Why was it the Statue of the Great Gordon?
The announcement that the Riddle Gentleman sent out had already spread throughout Gotham.
Not long after the "Statue of the Great Gordon" exploded, GBC immediately sent a reporter to take photos, and it appeared on Gotham's headlines at the speed of light.
"Breaking news! Gotham University's "Statue of the Great Gordon" exploded! Exploded! Exploded! "
"Scary! What the f * ck! The Riddle Gentleman has once again successfully completed his announcement of a crime! "
"Now we invite the relevant authoritative experts to thoroughly decipher the mystery left behind by the Riddle Gentleman based on the explosion of the" Statue of the Great Gordon "…"
A strange atmosphere gradually filled Gotham.
【18:30】。
Bruce felt refreshed.
He looked at Gotham from the Wayne Building and suddenly noticed that there was a thick cloud of smoke in the west.
"Wait a minute, that's not the industrial area …"
Bruce Wayne frowned and turned on the television.
In an instant, the news of "The Riddle Gentleman successfully detonated the Statue of the Great Gordon" covered Bruce's face.
"The Statue of the Great Gordon?"
Bruce Wayne closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
A few minutes later, he made a call that he had not called for a long time.
In the past few years, he rarely contacted Gordon The Elder.
"Old friend, is there something you didn't tell me about that puzzle?"
"What did I miss? What do you mean? "
Bruce Wayne said in a deep voice, "Signature, what was that guy's signature?"
"1, 2, 3 … From the busy 'Riddle Gentleman' Eduard Rin."
Hehe.
Suddenly, Bruce Wayne laughed.
"I see —"
