Gotham has re-entered a period of calm. The upper levels are being reshuffled, the middle levels are being reshuffled, and the bottom levels are being reshuffled over and over again. It will take a while before chaos breaks out.
For Gordon, this is the best time.
It seemed like he had never been so free since he joined the Gotham Police Department.
I can actually sit by the bed and look at the scenery and drink coffee in broad daylight.
Although he was extremely reluctant to admit it, Gordon still had to say that all this was thanks to the bat and the madman.
One from the top down, one from the bottom up. This cleansing of Gotham by two people from two directions has indeed made the city a lot cleaner. This is something that the police force cannot do in any case. .
Among other things, one of the members of the Court of Owls who was sent to Arkham by Batman is himself a high-level figure in the Gotham police system.
Although after that, both of them "disappeared" inexplicably and did not show up for many days. But Gordon was also happy to see this scene.
Batman didn't seem to be in good shape last time, so he just took this time to recuperate.
As for that madman...
It’s better not to miss him. On the first night we met, he almost helped Gordon quit his long-standing chess addiction. This man’s energy is too great, in every sense of the word.
He leisurely poured himself a large sip of coffee again. Now that he was free from the pressure of work, Gordon was still a little uncomfortable with it.
But this is how things happen sometimes. If you have a rare moment of leisure and you say: This is too leisurely. This leisure will soon disappear.
"Director. You need to see this."
One of Gordon's police officers sent a report. Generally speaking, unless they involve special people, especially their own teammates, unsolved cases under investigation will be directly handed over to the director, Gordon.
so……
Not those two people...
After receiving the report, Gordon quickly scanned it. Very good, he didn't see the photos of those two people.
After reading the report carefully, Gordon found that it didn't seem to be much better.
"Arkham? When was it. Last night?"
"Yes, Director, six people, all dead."
"Let's go now. Is the situation over there already under control?"
"Yes, Director, I'll prepare the car."
……………………
People died in Arkham, six at a time, which in itself could be considered a major case to investigate.
What's more, the ones who died were still the six captured by Batman in the last Court of Owls incident.
I just said a few days ago that we should pay attention to protecting them, because although they have escaped the justice of the law, they still have to serve their sentences in Arkham.
In this way, we can give an explanation to the people.
Unexpectedly, just a few days have passed and people are gone? !
By the time Gordon arrived at the scene, the preliminary scene investigation and autopsy had been completed.
Although his subordinates strongly advised Gordon not to go to the scene to watch, Gordon went anyway.
Then he felt a little regretful.
At first glance, it seemed that those people did not die normally.
They were tortured and someone wanted to know something from them!
"What could it be……"
Gordon didn't know much about the Court of Owls case, because both Batman and Lynn were obviously hiding something on purpose, and they made it clear that they didn't want others to know.
Gordon is also well-informed. As long as the case can be solved smoothly, no more innocent people will be killed or injured, and the criminals can be tried and imprisoned, Gordon actually doesn't care if some details are artificially covered up.
How could an absolutely upright and rigid guy survive even one day in a place like Gotham?
Reading the news and newspapers for a little while makes me stunned to death.
Gordon didn't even care much about these six dead guys. From the time they used the energy from the higher-ups, used the money to hire lawyers, and used the conditions of factory closures and laid-off workers to threaten the court in a subtle way, Gordon had been very hopeful. Some kind of killer shot six of them in the head from a thousand meters away.
If they die, then they die.
What Gordon cares about is whether the murderer really got some of the information he wanted from them.
Is this possible information related to what Linn and Batman concealed?
It must not be treated as an ordinary case, the person must be found, and Batman and Linn must know about it!
Opening the autopsy report, Gordon, who had just taken a look at the scene and felt a little sick, opened the car door and sat across the back seat: "The murderer was initially determined to be one person... He was beaten to death with a heavy object... The murderer was judged to be one meter tall. eight……"
"One meter eighty-three."
"Oh? One meter eighty-three? This number is quite accurate. Who is the forensic doctor in the identification department? So... eh?"
Gordon suddenly realized that he was sitting alone in the car.
"...The murderer is nearly 1.8 meters tall..." Gordon repeated.
"One meter eighty-three!" A deep voice came from the utility room next to the courtyard.
Gordon: "…………"
Get out of the car, put your hand on the handle of the gun, calmly walk to the door of the utility room, and gently push the door open...
"What a coincidence."
"...Lynn. Please, tell me that you didn't do it."
Lin En, who was washing her hands, shook off the water on her hands and turned off the faucet: "I'm sorry, I'm not good at lying."
OMG…
Gordon started to have another headache.
He closed the door behind him, took out the hand in his arms, covered his forehead and walked to Lin En, pulled a dirty chair and sat upright on it.
"Lynn, why are you doing this? You are retaliating, you are lynching, you are..."
"Batman? Hahahahaha, did he apply for a patent or something?"
Linn looked very unconcerned, put his hands on his clothes, leaned against the wall with his shoulders in his arms: "Gordon, I respect you and everything you have done for Gotham.
I know you want to uphold the law and leave the execution of justice to the law rather than to the people.
But, with all due respect, I haven’t seen any justice or dignity of law in Gotham.
I said this to Batman, and I'll say it to you again today.
Gordon, have those six of them been tried by the law? "
"I……"
"Look me in the eyes, Gordon. It's rare that I have a clear head now and appreciate it. Tell me, Gordon, whether the law you speak of has judged them."
Gordon stopped talking. Because he knew that no matter how he explained this, no matter what he said, even if he could deceive Linn, he could not deceive himself.
In front of those who are either rich or noble, the law he upholds becomes ineffective.
"But, then you can't be so private...private...I mean...
well……"
"Gordon, there is a saying that I wonder if you have heard."
Lynn patted Gordon on the shoulder and said: "When the law cannot bring justice to the parties concerned, private revenge is justified from this moment on...
Even noble. "
Lin lifted his legs and walked out: "Conan Doyle said it, um... he asked Sherlock Holmes to say it."
