Chapter 244 The Daily Life of Gotham People

Iceberg Casino, Office.

"It's a pleasure to have you here, Mr. Blacks."

Cobot waved the umbrella in his hand and said in a light and cheerful tone.

"Beauties, why don't you go pour wine for your distinguished guests?"

The beauties in maid outfits and bunny girl outfits immediately separated. Someone took the umbrella and briefcase from the man in a suit who just entered the door, and someone pulled a chair for him to sit down.

"I'm glad you finally figured it out."

Cobot said happily, and with a wave of his hand, he swept the pile of fish bones and fish bones left by him on the desk under the table. The two bunny waiters hurriedly bent down to clean up.

"As I said, Iceberg Casino represents the future direction of Gotham. This investment is definitely worth it, and your company will definitely develop better in my hands."

As he spoke, he stretched out his greasy hands with a smile on his face.

The man known as Blacks sat down and said gently: "You may have misunderstood, Mr. Cobot. What I actually wanted to say when I came here was not cooperation.

My wife and I discussed it carefully last night and we both figured it out. My company is more than just a business. Generations of my family have been running this company. Maybe it’s just that I can’t make a profit without losing money, and I don’t have the talent to make it bigger and better, but to me, this company is like home.

So I can't sell it to you, Mr. Cobot. Thank you for your kindness. "

Cobot's smile suddenly disappeared and he retracted his palm.

"Oh, so you guys discussed it?"

"Yes. We're flattered by your interest, but we're really not a good fit."

"Okay, very good." Cobblet smiled half-heartedly and shook the umbrella in his hand, "Tell me, Blacks, do you know Gotham?"

"No, I'm from Chicago. I've been in my family for generations."

"Okay, very good. I guessed it, you don't know Gotham at all, right? You were born into the privileged class, and you have never seen a place like this. Unlike me, I grew up in Gotham.

For as long as I can remember, people around me have died every day. Drugs, shootings, robberies, or just walking all night and being beaten to death on the streets. I bet you feel like these are far away, don’t you? Because you have never really lived in this city. "

Blakes looked confused: "I don't quite understand what you mean."

"The point is, accidents happen. In a place like Gotham, no one is indispensable. It's not surprising that anyone, anywhere, disappears and dies suddenly."

Blacks' face changed slightly: "Are you threatening me?"

"Threatening you? Ha, what are you talking about? Please don't get me wrong, I'm threatening your whole family." Cobot grinned, "Think about it, what will happen to your daughter and your wife after you die?

Maybe a drug addiction? You may meet some people you shouldn't meet, and a wrong investment may ruin your family fortune and lead to huge liabilities. They will have no choice, especially your daughter. Her pampered life makes it impossible for her to survive in this city. The only option is to sell her body."

"You" Blacks' eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

"And your company. Think about it, if after your death, everyone discovers that you are actually a hypocrite. You cheated on your wife during your lifetime, and evidence of your smuggling was found in the company. The tax bureau found that you had been evading taxes for a long time. evidence of."

"I don't, you can't" Blakes voice began to shake.

"I can, of course I can." Cobot grinned and said gloomily, "It seems you haven't understood yet, who has the final say in this city. If I say you have it, you will have it, if I say there is no, there will be no, it doesn't matter. It’s just a matter of my words. I advise you to think carefully again.”

Snapped.

At this point, the lights suddenly went out.

The whole room instantly fell into darkness.

Blacks in front of him and all the maids and thugs inside and outside the room were still confused, but Cobot had already realized what had happened.

But he did not give any order and did not resist. He only let out a long sigh, showed a face that gave up resistance, and said to the darkness above his head: "No, come again?

Let’s discuss it, can you wait for me for a minute? What I’m talking about here is work matters, which are very important.”

But before he could finish his words, he felt a strong hand lift his collar and pull his whole body up involuntarily. The Penguin was kicking his short legs in mid-air, shouting: "Be gentle! Be gentle! Handmade suits are very expensive."

The lights came on and the Penguin disappeared into thin air. Blakes looked confused, looking at the suddenly empty table in front of him at a loss.

As a result, the maids and thugs next to me all looked as if they were not surprised, and actually didn't panic at all. One of the bunny girls even dutifully came to Blacks' side and calmly poured wine into his glass.

Blacks had a strange look on his face: "You guys. Why are you so calm?"

"Oh, it happens once or twice a week. You can sit here and wait for a while. Mr. Cobot should be back soon." The bunny girl smiled sweetly at him, then lowered her voice and whispered, "Tell you secretly, You are lucky.

Whenever Mr. Copot happens to be 'asked' to leave in the middle of a conversation like this, he will usually become very talkative when he comes back."

Blakes: "???"

The businessman from Chicago was shattered for the second time today.

Is your daily life in Gotham so exciting?

On the top floor of a certain building, Cobot was lifted upside down in the air by his short legs, facing the strong wind, with a height of 100 meters below his head.

"Okay, okay, you have the final say! You have the final say in this city! What I just said was not just bragging at the negotiating table."

Cobot was disheveled in the wind, shouting at the top of his lungs.

As soon as Shen You let go, Cobot screamed and fell downwards, like a fat bird that was too fat to fly. He fell freely for hundreds of meters, and saw that his head was almost hitting the ground. Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and there was a rush of lightning in his ears. In the blink of an eye, he had strangely teleported back to the roof, and was lifted upside down in his hand again.

"Okay, okay, I shouldn't threaten that person! But I'm just scaring him! I won't buy his company anymore, why not!" Cobot shouted.

Shen You ignored it and let go again. The little fat bird screamed and fell freely again. Before landing, the scene in front of him flashed again, and he teleported back to the roof.

"No, what the hell do you want? What do you want to know, why the hell are you asking!?" Cobot almost cried.

Without asking a word, he let this idiot bat go through repeated free falls. Could he be taking it out on himself because of his recent bad life?

Is there any more royal method?

What are you going to ask? Shen You really hasn't thought about it yet.

But naturally he didn't just grab Copot to vent his anger. Although it seemed quite fun, he was a busy man and didn't have time to play such a boring game.

The reason why he did this was because he was looking for demonoids.

Batman inspired him in the opening sequence of the Justice League movie. At that time, Batman was also searching for traces of demonoids in Gotham. At that time, he used similar methods to lure demonoids to show up.

Demonoids are the mass-produced soldiers of Apokolips and are the main cannon fodder of Apokolips. They are transformed from captured creatures of various civilizations. They have low intelligence and no emotions, and feed on fear. Just like sharks that move when they smell blood, demonoids instinctively approach whenever they smell fear.

In the movie, Batman hangs a criminal from the edge of a roof and uses his fear to induce the demonoid to appear.

Now Shen You has followed this method. He found the area near the demonoid haunted area in the document given by Gordon, and used Cobot's fear to lure the demonoid into the trap.

Sure enough, that thing came.

Like a bat-like silhouette, under the cover of the night, it spreads its wings and swoops in from the other side of the night with a sharp scream.
