Chapter 120: The Laurels of the Old Dark King
Maybe it's because of money ability.
Or maybe it's because of the love the citizens of Gotham have for Bruce Wayne.
Or maybe it's because of Bruce Wayne's irresistible charisma.
In short, when Yi Lin was sitting face to face with the legendary Bruce Wayne, all the helicopters stopped attacking at the same time, and the two of them sat on the roof of the Wayne Building and had a long talk and had a good time.
The painting style suddenly became harmonious.
Beams of light gathered on the two of them.
"Damn it! What did I see?"
"Who the hell is Gentleman Riddle?"
"Bruce Wayne is actually drinking red wine with the riddle gentleman?!"
"My God, I think today must be the second April Fool's Day."
Fortunately, Yi Lin couldn't hear the gradually sour translation voice on the communication channel.
can only say.
The patron's father is awesome.
Yi Lin smiled at Bruce Wayne, poured another half glass of red wine, and shook it.
"Didn't you guess it?"
Bruce Wayne nodded: "The river of void is everywhere and everywhere, referring to the rail transit system all over Gotham City... Taking off the crown of the old king... Haha."
Old Bruce chuckled lightly, paused in tone, and didn't continue to entangle in this puzzle, and then frowned, showing a little puzzled: "It's just, how is the crime time hidden in the puzzle? Excuse me. Let me be blunt, the first half of your riddle...in my opinion, is more like useless nonsense."
"That's right, it's nonsense."
Yi Lin admitted it openly, without any embarrassment on her expression.
"?"
Bruce Wayne was taken aback when he heard this.
"That's right, the content in front of the riddle is all nonsense that has nothing to do with deciphering. There is actually only one sentence in the riddle that hides the 'criminal time' that is really useful..."
"Break the barrier between reality and illusion.
"
Yi Lin chuckled, then stretched out her hand, and lightly pointed to the Patek Cuili watch on her wrist.
Of course, Yi Lin has no intention of showing off her wealth at this moment.
It is estimated that Bruce Wayne would not think that Yi Lin had such a meaning.
No one can show off their wealth in front of him.
He vaguely remembered that there was a box of this kind of watch in the utility room, but he was too lazy to take it out to match.
And what Bruce Wayne noticed was...
The hands of the watch... didn't move at all.
Freeze at 00:00!
He suddenly remembered in the video.
At the very beginning and at the end when Yi Lin bowed in a gentlemanly manner, she seemed to point her watch at the camera inadvertently.
This... turns out to be the biggest hint!
In the video of more than two minutes long, the time of the watch has not changed at all.
This is the crime time puzzle!
No wonder Yi Lin chooses to publish puzzles in the form of video!
It's no wonder that Yi Lin would say a lot of incomprehensible nonsense in front of the puzzle!
I see!
I see!
Under Yi Lin's reminder, Bruce Wayne suddenly realized.
And, about the line "The gentleman will descend at the center of the fireworks."
As long as all the locations that Yi Lin was bombed are connected together, in the middle of the connection, it is... Wayne Building!
The puzzle... solved!
The answer to this riddle that has obsessed Gotham is so simple!
But... full of mysteries!
"Hahahahaha—"
Bruce Wayne laughed happily.
interesting!
interesting!
interesting!
He didn't expect the answer to be so simple, but he fooled the whole of Gotham, including himself... The once wise and brave Batman, Bruce Wayne!
"I lost!"
Bruce Wayne had a happy expression, and drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.
Very enjoyable.
This is a showdown that no one knows about.
An intellectual duel between two wise men who crossed planes, crossed time and space, and gathered because of the fate of the "tower"!
Bruce Wayne frankly admitted that he was defeated!
defeated by his most proud intelligence.
Is it the ability to make money that Bruce Wayne has always been proud of?
Or the various equipment?
Or is it the martial art that has reached its peak?
Or is it the unstoppable charm?
No--
It's actually... Wisdom!
"call--"
Bruce Wayne put down the empty wine glass.
Quietly.
He stood up smiling, twisting his neck.
Crackling.
After all, I am old.
"Next... take off the laurel crown that was watched by the darkness in the past? I want to witness with my own eyes, the tricks of the 'Riddler Gentleman' Edward Rin."
Erin lowered her head.
It's almost time.
If the delay continues, it is estimated that James Gordon, who was so angry that he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage, will resort to even crazier methods.
In this Gotham, the atmosphere has gradually become uncomfortable.
If it wasn't for completing the second main task and striving for a higher evaluation, Yi Lin wouldn't be in the limelight under the spotlight.
Everything...is a plan.
The only thing in this plan beyond Yi Lin's calculations is Pan Zhengyi.
He didn't expect Pan Zhengyi to stage a public show out of nowhere and abruptly snatch other people's points away.
It's just...inexplicable.
But the brain holes of neuropathy really cannot be theorized by ordinary people.
Maybe... It's the guy's intuition?
but--
Does not affect the overall situation.
Before Yi Lin traded with the other apostles, she roughly calculated how much evil they could get from the TNT bombs in their hands.
Of course, in case Li Erpang or someone else fails, and there is no explosion in other buildings as Yi Lin planned, Yi Lin also has backup.
He silently glanced at Bruce Wayne.
That look was like looking at a pile of rich points.
"hehe."
Yi Lin smiled slightly, stood up as well, and lowered the brim of her hat.
Bruce Wayne is already poised.
A sense of déjà vu of "I can play all day long".
Yi Lin suddenly stretched out two fingers.
Bruce Wayne: "!"
Gotham: "!"
The riddle gentleman has already become the focus of the entire Gotham.
Even when Yi Lin and the richest man, Bruce Wayne, had a drink and chat, there was a media private helicopter, hiding far behind the tactical helicopter, and immediately took a live long-distance shot on the roof of the Wayne Building.
The paparazzi of Gotham City are not in vain.
"This is GBC, this is GBC, I'm your favorite hot Didi, dear!"
"Because the Gotham Gazette and WXYZ radio stations were bombed, they were all bombed, and now the legendary criminal will be exclusively reported by our GBC, exclusive report!"
"Look! What is that! The riddle gentleman put up two fingers! Two fingers! God, is he going to issue a victory declaration in advance to the richest man, Mr. Bruce Wayne?"
"No! No! No! The Riddler Gentleman pressed a finger! He pressed - pressed - pressed a finger!"
Breaking sound--
boom!
The moment Yi Lin pressed down a finger.
Hovering above the Wayne Building, the unmanned "B78" tactical helicopter suddenly exploded in the air.
No warning!
It exploded! It exploded!
Gotham, which was bombed for a round, is now bombing again!
At the moment when everyone, including Bruce Wayne, was attracted by the bright fireworks from the helicopter explosion above.
Even if only for a moment.
It was enough for Yi Lin to make the next move.
Driven by telekinetic power, he flicked the last [TNT bomb card], and flew out at an angle that no one noticed.
The card is too small, the spotlight is too bright, and the fireworks above the head. With the cooperation of all factors, even Bruce Wayne, who is only a few steps away, didn't notice Yi Lin's little move in the first place.
boom!
Another explosion!
Two after another... no three in a row!
This is the last bomb held by Yi Lin!
And also the... epilogue to a night of explosive passion!
The last fireworks in Gotham.
Completely light up Gotham's former glory!
When everyone heard the explosion, they all clamped their legs together, and collapsed.
So, so, so, so exciting!
It exploded again!
It exploded again!
This time, the one who was bombed turned out to be——
The "W" sign at Wayne Building!
That is the symbol of Wayne Building, even in the past when Gotham villains ravaged 20 years ago, no one could take it off... the symbol of the richest man in Gotham!
suddenly.
Bruce Wayne turned his head.
The pupils shrank slightly.
Riddler Gentleman, Edward Rin... Gone!
Just like that... disappeared in front of him, Bruce Wayne.
"when?"
It took less than two seconds for Bruce Wayne to be distracted by the explosion.
He felt the vibration from the entire Wayne Building.
Soon, billowing smoke was emitted from the place of the explosion, flying into the sky.
Throughout the Wayne Building, the fire alarm bells rang frantically.
But Bruce Wayne didn't care.
The building is so strong that it won't collapse after a blow or two.
As for maintenance?
Anyway, not expensive.
"The laurels of the old kings? Is this what they meant?"
Bruce Wayne suddenly understood, and his smile gradually froze.
only.
What he doesn't know is.
In Yi Lin's plan B, if other people's crimes are not worth enough, the "laurel crown of the old king" does refer to his own head.
That's what it's called... a double entendre.
gotham city.
James Gordon Jr. was standing right in front of the Wayne Building.
He witnessed with his own eyes that the "W" sign flashing with neon light was blown to pieces in an instant.
Bang bang bang bang.
Fragments of signs, glass, reinforced concrete, and the wreckage of the helicopter that fell in the sky, countless debris fell from the sky.
But now the entire Gotham has been plowed by various explosions, and it has long been beyond recognition and is in chaos.
The blast from Wayne Tower was just icing on the cake.
And just when Yi Lin detonated the last "TNT bomb" and blew up the "W" sign above the Wayne Building.
A line of text suddenly appeared before his eyes.
[In the name of "Riddler Gentleman", destroy "Gotham City's richest man Bruce Wayne, the signboard of Wayne Building", and get a crime value of +80000! 】
[Main Mission 2: Restoring Gotham City to its former glory! mission completed! 】
[Rewards are now distributed according to the ranking of the 'Sin List'! 】
"..."
The text paused for a while.
System stuck?
impossible?
Three seconds later.
The quest rewards finally came after the long-awaited, thousands of trees and pear blossoms... Uh, no, the quest rewards keep coming.
[Reward obtained: Customs clearance evaluation level +1! 】
"!"
There is such a reward?
Yi Lin pondered for a moment in mid-air.
Something feels wrong.
The rewards for these two mainline quests...
It seems that they are all settled after customs clearance?
In other words... If you don't get out of the trial alive, then you don't need to honor this reward?
How is this different from a blank check?
...
And almost at the same time.
In Gotham City.
Whether it's flying around or jumping around.
Still scurrying around.
Still giggling.
Or silently showing off their muscles.
In front of all the apostles, a reminder of "Complete the main task 2" appeared.
It's just that it's not known how each person's reward will be.
"That's it? Is it over? Is this over?"
Li Erpang slapped the crowd in front of him with a slap. Many bullet holes on his body were bleeding. The uniform of the "Black Goose Man" was already riddled with holes. Staying ashamed, I finally don't have to fall into the pitiful state of streaking.
At this time, after receiving the message that the task was completed, Li Erpang ran and opened the "Crime List" to take a look.
...
【Crime list】
[Gotham Crime Degree] 1000000/1000000 (100.00%)
[Irin] 557771 (55.78%)
[Pan Zhengyi] 270255 (27.03%)
[Li Erpang] 83216 (8.32%)
【Zhu Yuner】54432 (5.44%)
[Su Xiaosu] 34326 (3.43%)
...
"!"
Mourning, mourning, madness!
The crime is heinous!
This is a violation of the rules of heaven!
But that's all.
Li Erpang was very sad.
He clearly remembered that Pan Zhengyi and those two idiots had a crime value of 255 before they acted.
After this round of pretending to be forceful, the crime value has risen neatly by 27W.
What does this mean?
It means that Pan Zhengyi didn't do anything except those two shows.
Soared directly to the second place on the crime list!
Become the number two Gotham Vice Star!
Li Erpang is simply jealous of his real name.
hatred?
It seems a little too.
In short, not taste.
...
...
And back over the Wayne Building.
Whether it's a combat helicopter, or a media helicopter.
They all witnessed this scene with their own eyes.
After the explosion, at the top of the Wayne Building, the riddle gentleman Edward Rin unexpectedly disappeared!
Little James Gordon, who was in charge of everything, was stunned for two seconds after receiving this information, but in an instant, he also reacted!
He remembered the scene at the clock tower.
Reminds me of the scene where the riddle gentleman falls from the sky.
He got it!
He realized it!
there is only one truth!
"The riddle gentleman can fly! Attention everyone, spread the spotlight beams, and find that damned criminal near the Wayne Building!"
"Hurry up!"
"receive!"
All helicopters received orders from James Gordon Jr. almost at the same time.
In an instant, all beams of spotlights moved away from the roof of Wayne Building.
Searching for the figure of the heinous criminal.
After a few seconds.
"found it!"
"On the west side of the Wayne Building! About the 40th floor! It's the umbrella that the Riddler Gentleman used to land!"
Shhhhhhh-
All the light beams gathered together.
"Shoot! Kill!"
Little James Gordon waved his hand without hesitation when he heard the great news from the channel.
kill! kill! kill!
Let the blood of the riddle gentleman bloom in the sky of Gotham!
Wouldn't this kind of person be killed and saved for Christmas?
chug chug——
The surrounding combat helicopters opened fire one after another, directly shooting the black umbrella into a sieve.
No umbrella can survive this kind of vitality.
etc……
Umbrella?
What about people?
After the excitement, ah no, after the shooting, all the pilots on the helicopters were in unanimous agreement, stunned.
"Go, go, go—"
James Gordon Jr.: "?"
Excited?
"Sheriff Gordon, there are only umbrellas, no one!"
"The gentleman of riddles, Edward Rin, disappeared again!"
"!"
Gotham: "!"
Snapped.
James Gordon Jr. smashed his police cap on the ground again.
Crackling.
By the way, it also brought out a few strands of golden hair.
...
...
While others were pondering the ranking of the crime list.
Before James Gordon Jr. lost his hair.
Before the helicopter strafed the umbrellas.
Yi Lin said that she was a bit busy.
After using two explosions in succession to divert everyone's attention, Yi Lin directly activated "Accompanying Shadow" while the effects of the two "magic little buffs" hadn't expired, and silently hid in the darkness.
The sense of existence dropped by 100%. At that moment, even Bruce Wayne didn't notice when Yi Lin disappeared from his eyes.
Just for a moment.
Yi Lin's grasp of the timing of skills has almost reached the point of perfection.
but--
Now Yi Lin is still in mid-air.
In fact, everyone didn't know that it was just a gimmick and a cover-up that he landed with an umbrella.
The black umbrella in his hand... is really just an ordinary umbrella.
Nothing special.
Certainly not the "Mediocre" series.
Yi Lin is nothing more than creating an illusion for everyone that the riddle gentleman landed with an "umbrella"!
To be precise, it is a "riddler gentleman had to use an umbrella to land" illusion.
The truth is, that black umbrella is of no use other than to enhance the style a bit.
Yi Lin landed layer by layer.
Empty hands.
There are no umbrellas.
In the darkness, Yi Lin silently released the "psychic power" tentacles, and "pulled" her body towards the wall.
Originally, under the normal fall situation, with his current "psychic power" strength, this is basically impossible to complete the coquettish operation.
But in the case of such a slow landing, it can be easily done.
Yi Lin was posted on a certain floor.
When Blood Jasmine poked it, the glass shattered, and in two seconds, Yi Lin disappeared outside the Wayne Building.
"Yo, sure enough, I knew that the richest man with nearly a billion people would definitely not cut off the power to Wayne Building."
Yi Lin patted the dust off her body.
The solid black tuxedo was spotless.
Lower the brim of the hat.
Yi Lin took the elevator silently.
Three minutes later.
Little James Gordon, who was losing his hair, did not notice that a gentleman as elegant as an aristocrat swaggered out of the main entrance of Wayne Building.
In a blink of an eye, it melted into the darkness and disappeared.
At night, it is the world of gentlemen.
...
...
Nourishing——
Dr. Jack silently turned off the TV.
Um.
What is broadcast on TV is officially a special program broadcast by Gotham's only GBC broadcaster today.
"The Riddler Gentleman" special.
And it's live.
Dr. Jack smiled slightly.
Sitting in his office, he subconsciously reached out, trying to take out something.
"Oh—I almost forgot, there is no need for a key here."
Dr. Jack directly opened the drawer.
There is a small hole where the lock is.
If Yi Lin saw this scene, she would definitely be no stranger to it.
Because this hole was dug by himself.
deep impression.
Doctor Jack's expression didn't change.
He carefully took out all the messy things in the drawer, such as mirrors, cosmetics, lipsticks, notes, small books, and the like.
And in the innermost part of the drawer.
I don't know when it started, but another small box was hidden.
Dr. Jack stroked the box silently.
Suddenly he sighed.
"Those old guys also need further treatment..."
