Chapter 87 Barbara Gordon is missing
Zheng En's face turned green.
No, man, is this right?
What are all these things?!
Why does Halloween bring out so many monsters and demons? It's one thing for the Romans and Maroni, those two traditional gangster villains, to fight, but what's with Poison Ivy? And who's in the sewers? My Killer Croc mission isn't finished yet, is it going to fail so inexplicably?!
Zheng En quickly opened the panel to check, and thankfully, [Crocodile Tears] was still in the task bar, not turned gray as it would after failure.
The last one refers to Grandi.
Zheng En thought that was all, but Tong Bian opened another window.
"Following the clashes between multiple gangs, a new gang leader appears to have emerged."
This scene depicts a gang shootout. At first, Jung Eun didn't notice anything unusual until one of the gang leaders revealed his true identity: a wooden puppet doll with a cigarette in its mouth was firing a submachine gun.
He burst into arrogant laughter, "From now on, this land is mine!"
The hand attached to the puppet belonged to a little old man with sparse white hair combed to the sides. He spoke timidly, his soft voice drowned out by the gunshot, "Scarface, isn't this a bit much—"
"What's wrong with that! This place is full of lunatics, Gotham is a lunatic's world, and we're saving them!"
"Oh, I see, I understand—"
Zheng En remained silent.
In his mind, he clutched his face, contorting it into the shape of the famous painting "The Scream," and cried out, "Why is even the scar showing up?! Aaaaaaah!"
Didn't he leave Arkham and go back to his normal life?!
What? His normal life has been disrupted?
That's fine.
Zheng En stared blankly at the several windows on the screen, then fiercely wiped her face.
Scarecrow, you've really got something special.
Could the Joker really pull out at least three supervillains from the muddy ground in one night?
Ok?
"These are the key areas that need to be focused on at present."
Seeing that no more monsters and demons appeared, Zheng En sighed, "Thanks, Commander Bat."
Previously, in order to train Jung Eun's own coping abilities, the bat rarely provided him with assistance in missions, but this Halloween was clearly an exception, no longer within the scope of practice.
Zheng En's situation is relatively good; even if she fails to complete the mission, she won't be in mortal danger. But it might not be the same in other situations.
For example, it's like Earth-3 in the DC Universe. If you run out of save points and still can't complete the mission to stop Night Owl from activating the quantum bomb, and you can't find a way to escape to another universe, then the player will have to die along with everyone else.
A grand funeral across the entire universe can be seen as a kind of reunion in another world.
"This is your friend?"
Batman frowned as he looked at his computer screen. Although he had guessed something, letting AI into his system still felt unsettling.
His intense desire for control made him resent anything outside of his control, and the AI before him was far more powerful than he had imagined. Zheng En hadn't even done anything; it had already connected to the computer network system inside the Batcave.
Doesn't that mean Jung Eun can monitor the actions inside the bat cave at any time?
Zheng En didn't notice Batman's swirling thoughts, and even if she had, she wouldn't have cared. That's just how Batman's character is—trust is trust, and suspicion is suspicion.
His rationality is the last line of defense for the Justice League. The most terrifying thing would be if he ever truly trusted someone completely and let his guard down.
Earth-1 in the Dark Universe was like that. As a result, Superman in that universe suddenly went on a killing spree, killing the pregnant Lois Lane, his Justice League allies, and everyone else. As a result, Batman had to inject himself with the Doomsday virus and become the Destroyer to fight Superman.
Jung Eun-ko didn't want to see this happen.
Seeing that Batman didn't seem to be in a good mood, he quickly introduced, "This is—you can call him Batman." Zheng En couldn't come up with any background story, and since he would be exposed no matter what he said, he simply didn't say anything.
Anyway, given Batman's efficiency and the growing chaos caused by the Scarecrow, no matter how dissatisfied Batman was, he could only grit his teeth and accept it.
"Buzz—Buzz—"
"6
The vibrating phone drew everyone's attention. Embarrassed, Jung Eun answered the call under their gazes. Before she could speak, an urgent voice came from the other end, "Do you know where the Scarecrow is?"
"My daughter, Barbara Gordon, is missing."
The voice on the other end of the phone was very hoarse. Gordon roughly took off his glasses and wiped his face hard.
Brock watched him worriedly from the side, while Gordon just swallowed hard, trying to make a sound from his hoarse throat, "I suspect it was Scarecrow's doing—"
Shortly after dinner, young Barbara changed into the carefully prepared clothes.
Wearing a dress and a cape, her orange-red curls tucked under a pointed witch's hat, Little Barbara quickly slipped on her boots, grabbed a broom, and prepared to head out.
Gordon, who was on vacation at home, was reading the newspaper on the sofa. When he saw her going out, he reminded her, "Be careful, little Barbara, don't get too excited and fall."
"Okay, Dad!"
Halloween is a lively day, and through the window, Gordon could see little Barbara running outside with the neighbor's kids.
If nothing unexpected happens, this will be a very pleasant night.
But Gotham City is never short of accidents and crime.
Just minutes before Scarecrow made his crime statement on television, Gordon was cuddling with his wife Barbara Keane on the couch.
Since arriving in Gotham, he has had very little time to spend with his family.
Even watching TV together, nestled close together, was a precious moment for him. Barbara held his hand and placed it on her belly, the rounded curve revealing the new life growing there.
"This is a very energetic child." She smiled, revealing an extremely gentle and loving expression.
Gordon felt the life beneath his belly through his skin; this was the second child he and Barbara were carrying together. "If it's a boy, we'll name him James."
James Gordon and Barbara Keane, James Gordon Jr. and Barbara Gordon Jr.
But soon their tender moment was interrupted by noise from the television, the scarecrow's piercing laughter echoing throughout the room.
"Is it a prank?"
Barbara hesitated, but Gordon shook his head. "It's probably true."
As he spoke, he put on his coat, and just then, the phone on the table rang.
"Okay, I understand, I'll be right there."
Gordon hung up the phone and kissed Barbara's forehead under her worried gaze. "It's okay, I'll be back soon. Tell little Barbara to come back early and not go out."
