In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 820: Batman behind enemy lines (middle)
"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"
The difficulty for ordinary people in Gotham to pretend to be gangsters lies in the fact that they cannot get good cars, suits and bodyguards. If they had the ability to get these things, they would have become gangsters.
But Bruce is different. He is a rich man with a sick mind. He insists on finding a job outside his own race. He wants to do things that ordinary people cannot do easily.
That's right, Bruce's plan is to first observe the behavior and appearance of the gang bosses, and then pretend to be them and mix in.
He came up with this idea, in fact, because during those many days in the slums, he discovered that there are too many gangsters in Gotham, with countless bosses, big and small, and it is impossible for ordinary people to remember so many faces .
Because of the rapid personnel changes in gangsters, today you are a big boss who ruled three blocks, and you will be killed the next day. Maybe at this time, the bosses of the gangsters in the next block don’t even know about it. How could the bodyguard of the mansion know?

The reason why we still need to observe is because, before, Bruce felt that the members of the big gang of different classes may have very different appearance conditions, so he needs to write down every difference carefully for his own convenience. I will recognize people later.
But now, because the gang leaders are crazy about the godfather, they are infinitely close to the same appearance. Everyone is wearing black suits and leather shoes, and the members of the twelve families are adding a red poppy. Dressed like this, can you talk to members of any class?
"A plan is gradually taking shape in my mind, but I know that to complete this shocking deception, many factors are needed, and there is a place that allows me to perfectly realize this plan. For this, I must get Find someone..."
Another sheet of the calendar was torn out, and there was less than one day left before the due date for the homework, but at this moment, Bruce was full of ideas, and a familiar name appeared among the words outlined in his pen—— "James Gordon".
"James has always been my good helper, and this time, I hope he can cooperate with my plan..."
"Until now, I still remember the surprised expression on his face when I approached him and told him to arrest me, but I can understand him, he must feel that I have posted again Crazy, but actually, this is the most important part of my plan..."
The smile crossing the corner of Bruce's mouth, on the opposite side of him, was Gordon's extremely surprised expression. He widened his eyes and said, "What are you talking about? Let me arrest you??? You..."
"Wait a minute, Bruce, let's have a good talk..." Gordon stepped forward and patted Bruce on the shoulder and said: I know, you were greatly stimulated before, but, some things need to be done step by step, You are still young, don't take detours..."
"No, James, listen to me." Bruce looked at Gordon very calmly and said, "If I'm arrested, will I be put in jail?"
Gordon's movements froze for a moment, and he said: "Whether you will... well, you should not be put in prison, you are a mental patient, and you have a mental illness test report issued by the hospital, so You should be locked up in a mental hospital."
"So which is the most famous mental hospital in Gotham?" Bruce asked.
"Of course it's Arkham Asylum... Wait, you're going to Arkham Asylum? Why are you going there? There are no patients of yours there, only a group of gang bosses who don't want to be discharged..."
"I just want to find those gangster bosses."
Finally. Gordon still helped this favor, and Bruce got his wish under a disguised identity, was tried, and then imprisoned in Arkham Mental Hospital.
Standing in the corridor of this hospital again, Bruce has a completely different mentality. When he was an intern here last time, he watched Schiller turn an otherwise normal mental hospital into a The gangster's party mansion.
At that time, he also dealt with these gang bosses, but at that time, he was very stubborn that there was nothing to look at with these criminals, and that he would talk to them, but it was just a hypocrisy.
But now, he was standing in front of Arkham Asylum, wearing a suit and tie, and his shoes were shining brightly.
Get out of the car, stomp your feet, adjust your tie, enter the door, walk forward quickly, enter the room, light a cigar, sit on a chair, and breathe out the smoke first. Before Bruce could speak, a gangster dressed in the same dress came over and said : "This is a good product, buddy, where did it come from? Could it be the batch before December?"
Bruce rubbed the side of the cigar lightly with his fingers, and said, "It's not a smuggled product, it's just a little more money."
The person next to him raised his eyebrows and sat on the chair next to Bruce. Bruce was wearing a mask, but from the unhealed scar on his neck, it could be seen that he should have suffered severe burns.
"My name is Harrison. Fisherman's Harbor in the Eastern District is my site. Where are you from? Who do you want to find when you come in?"
"You can call me Matchstick Malone. My site is not far from Wayne Building. Of course, I also have something to do with the South District. I am not here to find anyone, but to negotiate a business...·
Every word Bruce said was true, so there was no flaw in his expression and tone. The man named Harrison narrowed his eyes and said, "It's not far from Wayne Building..."
Bruce did not continue to speak, leaving Harrison with plenty of room for imagination. Of course, Harrison could not have imagined that the person in front of him was Wayne, but as far as he knew, the sites near the Wayne Building should be twelve directly controlled by the family.
Harrison thought, the person on the other side obviously showed his identity by saying this, but he also expressed his attitude. You only need to know that I am from the twelve families, and you don't need to know which family I am.
Since this is the attitude, it means that the business he is talking about may be a bit special. Harrison made up all the reasons by himself. He looked at Bruce and said, "You should understand the rules here. In a place outside the law, whether the business can be negotiated depends on sincerity, how much sincerity are you willing to show."
"I thought. Anywhere in this world, when talking about business, you should first talk about returns." Bruce is not afraid of temptation. After all, he is not really a prodigal playboy. The Wayne family can develop to this point. , He has contributed a lot, and it is easy for him to gain an advantage at the negotiating table.
Harrison rubbed his fingers, and he found that the other party was a stubble, and he really deserved to be a member of the Twelve Family, Harrison thought, so he smiled, softened his tone and said, "That's true, but here The situation is quite special, you can understand that as long as you can enter this hospital, you have a chance to have a fair dialogue with everyone."
"In the past, you may not have the right to see some people, and some people may not have the right to see you. We all have to abide by the rules and not do things indiscriminately, but in this hospital, we all have only one identity. It is the patient."
"If you are here for the first time, I have to remind you, remember this, we are just patients, if you still think of yourself as a gang boss, some very scary things may happen, here is a Doctor, he doesn't come around very often, but you'd better not mess with him, if you shoot here and make a hole in the wall, you will be in bad luck."
"I've been here." Bruce said directly: "At that time, that professor was still working here, and I made some like-minded friends here, which were very beneficial to my career, so I came this time, I want to find some more trustworthy partners..."
Hearing what he said, Harrison changed his attitude again. He said: "It turns out that you have been here in the early days, so there is nothing to say. If you want to discuss any business, just go."
"But it's been a long time since now, and I don't know if the situation here has changed. If you are willing to give me some guidance, maybe I can get a diagnosis sheet from that professor?"
Harrison's eyes lit up immediately, and he put his hands on the table and said: "Everyone knows now that there are two places in Gotham that are different, one is Arkham Asylum, and the other is Gotham. Tan University.”
"In these two locations, no matter who goes in, they have only one identity, if you are in Arkham Asylum, then you are a patient, if you are in Gotham University, then you are a student .”
"But because of this, we have the opportunity to communicate on an equal footing. Many people choose to enter the hospital directly, or let their children enter the school, to discuss some business that is not so easy to talk about."
Hearing this, Bruce was taken aback. Arkham Asylum and Gotham University have become the two most special places in Gotham ~IndoMTL.com~ and they all have one thing in common, that is, they are both Schiller's influence.
"Thinking about this, I feel a little confused. Could it be a coincidence? Or, in fact, someone has already seen the problem with this kind of rule, so they deliberately broke the rules, created platforms, and strengthened exchanges to ease the situation. All kinds of problems caused by the solidification of rules?"
"What confuses me is that the professor who affected these two places doesn't look like he wants to save Gotham at all."
"But I don't think it's a coincidence. If I remember correctly, the godfather created the rules of gangsters and asked everyone to obey him, but this hospital broke the rules, but why didn't the godfather Disagree?"
Bruce put down his pen, paused and wrote:
"Still, as he said, the gang rules were the only solution he could find in that era, and today, everyone has realized that there is no way to continue this set of rules. Support it."
"Perhaps, Arkham Asylum and Gotham University are the prelude to the godfather wanting to loosen the chain, but why three years later, Gotham is still the same as before, this form of platform has not developed more Broad?"
"What are the godfathers and professors waiting for?"
When this line of words fell, Bruce's pen tip suddenly stopped, a kind of conjecture appeared in his mind, which made him feel absurd, and then the ink he wrote smeared on the paper, with a hint of disbelief.
"...are they waiting for me?"
"Since then, they have been waiting for a person who can wake up from the rules, realize the problem, and have the courage to overthrow all of this, and have the wisdom to establish new rules?"
