American Comics: BOSS Invasion

Warden Sean Burnham paused, and before he could refuse, his assistant rushed over excitedly and whispered something in his ear.

The warden's eyes lit up, and he waved the assistant away.

"Oh, sir, you're too kind. I'll personally guide you through the tour today. Please don't refuse. By the way, what should I call you?"

Qi Shan smiled slightly, and a burly man beside him said, "This is Sir Qi, from England. His father was personally granted nobility by the Queen of England in the 1990s."

Warden Sean Burnham was awestruck and repeatedly said, "My apologies, Sir!"

Qi Shan waved his hand dismissively and said casually, "No need to be so formal. Actually, I'm not used to such titles. Just call me Mike, Mike Qi, an ordinary Asian from England."

Ordinary my ass!

The warden secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, but his face was full of smiles.

"Then I'll call you Mr. Qi! Please forgive my boldness, but why would someone of your esteemed status personally manage this charitable foundation?"

Could it be that a child is messing around behind his parents' backs?

Qi Shan smiled and said, "Are you wondering why someone of my status would personally get involved in such a sensitive area like criminals, which can easily cause sharp conflicts?"

The warden nodded slightly awkwardly.

"Indeed, that's what's puzzling me. Logically speaking, someone as distinguished as you wouldn't come into contact with this!"

"Well, that's a long story!"

Qi Shan shook his head, a fake sorrowful expression on his face.

"It was several years ago, one night, I attended a dinner party.

Unfortunately, a group of audacious bandits raided the dinner party, kidnapped everyone, and looted all the money before leaving.

That night, my bodyguard team was nearby but didn't have the ability to stop the bandits.

However, because the organizer of the dinner party was my enemy, they chose to stand by and watch.

Unexpectedly, as the bandits were leaving, they happened to encounter my father, and after he tried to stop them, they shot and killed him…"

"…I held my father's hand, and with his last breath, he said to me: With great power comes great responsibility!"

The warden put on a solemn face and nodded slowly, "I'm very sorry. Your father was a great hero!"

"Thank you!"

Qi Shan thanked him slightly and continued, "My father's departure caused the entire family to collapse. It was this tragedy that completely changed my life.

I inherited a vast fortune, enough to squander for a lifetime, but spending money is the most meaningless thing to me.

I want to use this worthless money to fulfill my father's ideals, which will make me feel a little better!"

Qi Shan's eyes sharpened: "I once thought about researching biochemical technology to transform myself into a mutant with super strength, super speed, and super senses.

But later I rejected this idea.

Because I know that even if I put on a tight suit and swing through the big city, catching petty thieves and preventing crimes is only a temporary solution.

To completely eliminate the occurrence of evil, we must increase the deterrent effect of the law.

In fact, not only is Mid City, but the entire United States is facing this problem."

Qi Shan turned to look at Sean and said, "Warden, you're in the system, so you should know more than I do. Nowadays, the global crime rate is rising, and super villains are popping up from time to time, causing large-scale riots, creating disasters, and harming innocent people.

Every city has superheroes who step forward, such as nearby Star City, Coast City, and Gotham City decades ago.

But the fact proves that superheroes can only solve problems, but not the root of the problems!

Therefore, I gathered a large number of upper-class people and formed a charitable disaster relief foundation.

I want to use the foundation as a bridge to gradually increase the severity of the law against criminals in various ways. Only by making people fear crime and clearly understand that the consequences of crime are unbearable for them can the problem of the ever-increasing crime rate be truly solved."

Sean nodded, and even he was a little moved by the youth's vision.

If a huge amount of financial resources were used as a springboard to continuously promote policy changes, perhaps one day the crime rate could really be suppressed.

"Of course, these are sensitive issues that can easily cause social controversy, and we cannot achieve them overnight.

Therefore, the foundation's current aim is still to help innocent people who have been harmed by criminals and to fund the establishment of professional teams to help the police capture criminals.

Given that Mid City has the highest number of super-powered crimes in the entire United States.

Therefore, our foundation has decided to fund and hire combat experts from all over the world to form a professional hunter squad to capture super-powered criminals.

However, in this regard, I would like Mr. Burnham to provide some support. Your family has a long history, and I believe it shouldn't be difficult to get the police department to accept the assistance of the hunter squad!"

Sean nodded lightly: "Of course, the police department already has a precedent for this. They have successively accepted the assistance of Flash and Kid Flash.

The matter of the hunter squad is not difficult, leave it to me!"

The prison guards were a little uncomfortable. After all, they usually played the role of being high and mighty in front of the criminals.

However, seeing the boss's natural expression, they wisely didn't say anything.

The two walked across the playground and directly into the prison.

"The entire prison is divided into four areas. Except for the solitary confinement, we will divide the criminals into three levels according to their threat level and detain them in areas A, B, and C respectively…"

Before the warden could finish speaking, Qi Shan waved his hand and interrupted him, "Mr. Burnham, I don't know if you've heard of Arkham City, this plan."

Sean's eyes lit up: "Are you interested in building Arkham City?"

Sean was so excited that he couldn't contain himself. Arkham City was a huge plan. It was a city of freedom for criminals, and it could also be called a city of sin.

In short, any criminal who committed a serious crime would be thrown into this city. There were no punishments except that they couldn't leave.

No matter what you did in Arkham City, outsiders wouldn't care.

It could be regarded as a man-made hell.

The plan had been shelved before because the budget was too staggering.

If Arkham City could be completed in his hands, this achievement could easily push him to a seat in Congress.

How could Sean remain calm?
