American Comics: BOSS Invasion

#1159 - Second conversation with Bruce Jr.

Getting a definite answer, Qi Shan nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave.

Under normal circumstances, he might add some coercion and inducement to ensure these guys would work, but Qi Shan didn't care. Whether these guys worked or not wouldn't affect him.

It would be even better if they wanted to run. His identity as a police officer on the surface needed to solve this case.

On the other side, the gate of Wayne Manor was knocked open again.

Alfred opened the door and saw the graceful Alice outside. He was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Miss Alice, it's an honor to see you again!"

Alice smiled and nodded: "I apologize for the intrusion, but I think Mr. Bruce Wayne shouldn't be resting at this time!"

"Of course! Please come with me!"

Alfred led Alice to the living room, served her a cup of coffee, and then slowly walked to the door of the study.

He knocked lightly twice, pushed the door open, and went in: "Master Bruce, Miss Alice... Master, what are you doing?"

Alfred suddenly shouted, startling Bruce Wayne, who was in a daze.

He came back to his senses and realized the pain in his hand. He had been so engrossed in watching the candle that he had unconsciously burned his palm with the flame.

What's going on?

"She's in the living room!"

Before the butler could finish speaking, Bruce jumped up and hurried out.

No one could understand Bruce's confusion and pain during this period. As soon as he closed his eyes, he would relive the nightmare of that day. He couldn't sleep night after night, and the scene of his parents' death kept flashing in his mind.

This lingering nightmare had almost become his obsession.

He desperately craved revenge and even hoped to kill the enemy himself.

But this was just wishful thinking. As the heir to the Wayne family, he was not allowed to do so.

Fortunately, there was a revenge foundation that had been operating.

During this period, he had deliberately collected internal information from the police and knew that the number of deaths had risen sharply in just one week.

The dead were of almost every identity.

The most eye-catching should be the Arkham explosion. The tragic death of Director Hugo left him speechless for a long time.

It was also this news that made Bruce realize that the Revenge Foundation was serious.

They were really killing people!

They were already carrying out the revenge plan. Why did they come to him? To report the situation, or did they discover some unspeakable secret during the execution?

Bruce couldn't help but feel impatient when he thought of this.

Meeting in the living room, the two nodded politely to each other, with appropriate smiles on their faces.

Bruce Wayne was cultivated as an heir, and he was too familiar with business etiquette and professional smiles.

And Alice?

Please, she was the most professional, okay? With big data comparison, no one's smile was more standard than hers.

"Mr. Bruce Wayne!"

"Miss Alice!"

The two sat down, and Alice, facing Bruce's questioning gaze, said straightforwardly: "Mr. Wayne, I'm here this time because some secret information was discovered during the execution of this plan, which is related to the death of your parents!"

Bruce said solemnly: "I'm listening!"

"First of all, our previous judgment was correct. The deaths of Thomas and Martha were indeed caused by the Court of Owls, and it was also the philosopher Hugo who sent people to do it.

But the trigger event was about the Arkham area reconstruction plan!"

"Are you referring to the Arkham that you blew up?"

Alice nodded and said: "Regarding your mother's Arkham plan, we have also studied it. It is indeed a very good development plan. Unfortunately, such a plan is very friendly to the poor, but it is not beneficial to capital at all.

For example, Romani, whose interests he represents, also hopes to have a hand in the opening of the Arkham area. At the same time, Falcone is also very interested in this.

With the support of the Wayne family, Martha's attitude was very tough. She was tired of constantly making concessions. In her plan, the Arkham area was the social responsibility of Gotham's upper class, and they had a responsibility to take care of those poor people.

Unfortunately, most people can't do this. They are puppets of capital and instinctively want to maximize profits in every place. Seeing the fat is in front of them, but they can't get their hands on it. If it were you, what would you do?"

Bruce said blankly: "Clear the obstacles!"

"That's right, that's what they did!" Alice pushed her glasses and said calmly: "But facing the Wayne family, even the arrogant leader of the underworld would not dare to act rashly. But if at this time there is a big shot from above who agrees to this plan, then what reason do they have not to implement it?

So, according to the contract, Falcone and Romani are also on the revenge list.

But the problem also arises!"

Bruce smiled wryly: "Their identities!"

"That's right, Romani and Falcone are the pillars of Gotham's underworld. After so many years, these two families have almost integrated Gotham's underworld forces.

When they are around, there may be criminal activities, but most of them are suppressed.

Once they die, then the whole of Gotham will be in chaos again. Before a crowd-pleaser reappears, Gotham will become synonymous with chaos!

I remember during the last conversation, Mr. Wayne clearly stated that he didn't want such a result."

Bruce said: "So you're here this time to ask for my opinion?"

Alice nodded.

"Sorry, I don't quite understand. If I remember correctly, I also clearly requested to stop the revenge last time, but was told that I didn't have the authority to do so. So what's going on now? I suddenly have it again?"

"The revenge mechanism has already started running. Unless the funds are exhausted, it will not stop. But a car that cannot be stopped does not mean it cannot be controlled at all. At least we can turn the steering wheel and choose different roads, and this choice is indeed in your hands."

Alice said lightly: "So, Mr. Wayne, what are your thoughts? Kill them both or turn around and continue with the original plan?"

Bruce was silent.

A few seconds later, Alice stood up and said: "Understood!"

Bruce was stunned: "What do you understand again? I didn't say anything!"

"No need to say, since you are hesitant about the chaotic Gotham, then we naturally know how to choose!" Alice smiled and said: "Also, let me tell you an important message, we have already found the first important person, and the revenge program will begin tonight!"
