American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

Chapter 155: Party and Umbrella (7)

\"Vijin Umbrella Store? Oh...that's really an old yellow calendar.

In the Gotham Police Department's office, Bullock was lighting a cigarette, leaning against the filing cabinet, and said to Gordon, "You know, I'm from the East Side, a native Gotham, a kid from the ghetto. \'

\"I remember you just came to Gotham... That should have been a few years ago? Yes, at that time, the East End was still very brilliant, there were four major families, full of high-end clubs, various bars and clubs, even stripping Dancers are the best.\"<

\"Don't think it's a shabby slum.\"Brock changed his hand to hold a cigarette, he took a puff, exhaled the smoke, and fell into the memory.

\"The East District has been brilliant for a long time. With Green Street as the center, dozens of streets spread out, including Elizabeth Street, the central area where gangs gather now, but at that time, Elizabeth Street could not be ranked. When it is prosperous, of course, Green Street is second to none.\"

\"But now, there's a little...\" Gordon frowned, he touched the corner of his mouth, and said: \"I went to see that case two days ago, and it really doesn't fit the bill. you said…..

\"Of course, I said, that's all in the past, maybe five or six years ago...or seven or eight years ago, there was still the most prosperous commercial center in the East District, and the Weijin Umbrella Store opened there. Don't think it's remote, it's actually the best location.

"

Brock breathed out another puff of smoke and recalled: \"It was the most special store in the East District. The commercial street under the rule of gangsters is often full of bars, dance halls and high-end restaurants. An umbrella shop is somewhat out of place.\"\ "However, the customers of that umbrella shop are very high-end, because the old umbrella maker Viking is very good at craftsmanship, and the handmade umbrellas he made were a symbol of the status of the Gotham gang bosses at that time. Anyone who can get one has Viking When the emblem's umbrella goes out, it means that he is a high-ranking figure in the Gotham gangster world.\"

\"I know.\" Gordon nodded and said: \"When I first came to Gotham, there was a boom in handmade products, a trend of retro, leading the aesthetics of the East Coast and even the whole country. Everyone was saying, Things made by machines are cold and soulless, and only handmade things have taste."

\"Maybe so, but not quite.\" Bullock came over, sat down on the chair, and continued \"You know the weather in Gotham, umbrellas are really useful things.\" Gordon held his elbow He leaned against the table, put his weight on the table, flipped through a file, and said: \"This old umbrella maker's craftsmanship should be very good, right? It's a pity that he died.\"\"Indeed, the entire Gotham gangster The bosses will only go to him to buy umbrellas, so many other umbrella makers quit, and today, he is the only handmade umbrella maker left in Gotham.\"

\"It's true that his craftsmanship has nothing to say, but his temper is also very strange. When I lived in the East District, I once heard that his umbrellas were only sold to some people, and other people, no matter how much they paid, would sell them. Umbrellas are not available.\"

\"Really?\" Gordon looked at Brock, he questioned: \"The gang bosses are not given for nothing, this old umbrella maker dare not sell them umbrellas, won't they go to trouble ?\"

\"I don't know about that, but there doesn't seem to be any conflict.\" Bullock shrugged.

\"I don't think you can find any clues from him. He may have just been injured by mistake.\"

Gordon reluctantly said: \"Kevin's death is related to Fish's death, but I can't find any clues from Kevin, so I can only start from others, do you think, will... \"

Gordon sighed, overturned the guess in his mind, and said: \"Forget it, it's unlikely, now that the craze for handmade products is over, a gangster like Kevin who didn't go to school wouldn't do any crafting. Custom umbrellas, our informant never said he knew the owner of Viking Umbrella Shop, they may be strangers."

\"But I always feel that it's a little strange that they died in the same case.\" Gordon stood up straight, he crossed his hips and said: \"In the past, there were a lot of gang fires that affected other people, but I felt that, This case is very strange. . . . .

\"Your intuition is always accurate.\" Bullock said to Gordon: \"Well, I will go to that umbrella shop later, after all, I grew up in the Eastside, and I am familiar with it. If there is any clue, I will tell you again...

\"we can only do this.

As soon as Gordon finished speaking, a small policeman knocked on the door and said: \"Boss Gordon, Mr. Falcone Jr. is here.\"

Gordon and Bullock hurriedly greeted him and went upstairs, where they saw the police chief talking to Evans, who was in a suit and followed by a few bodyguards.

It looked as if he was the master of the police station.

Evans inherited his father's good looks, tall, tall, and handsome, and he also inherited his beautiful blonde hair from his mother, but he looked less like a gangster godfather than that. A star actor, or a passionate artist.

Seeing Gordon coming, he turned around and shook hands with Gordon and said: \"Detective Gordon, I have long respected your name, I heard about you from my classmates and teachers, you are a good policeman:

Gordon and Bullock accompany the chief and Evans to chat. In Gotham, even if Evans is the biggest suspect in a murder, all the cops have to be polite to him, even a guest, because his last name is Falcone.

Just when they were about to invite Evans to the drawing room, Evans said, "No, I have something to say here..."

In the basement of a hotel on Elizabeth Street, Maroney let out a scream, and Batman broke his leg with a steel pipe, and Maroney cursed loudly: \"You **** meddlesome weirdo...  

Batman's voice was as cold as ever: \"I stopped you from killing the innkeeper, but it wasn't because I happened to be passing by. Obviously, I have something to do with you, and you'd better cooperate.\"

Maroney glared at him fiercely and said, "You don't expect me to tell you anything! You son of a bitch...\"

Ten minutes later, Maroney was lying on the ground, all his limbs were broken, and Batman asked him: \"Did you shoot and kill Fish?\" Gas 4

Maroney didn't seem to think that was the question he was asking, and he gave short gasps in place, the pain nearly passing him out, but Batman gave him a stimulant to keep him awake.

\"You'd better cooperate, otherwise I don't know where to break next.\" Batman kicked his arm, Maroney screamed from his throat, and finally, he Still giving in, he said: \"It's me... it's really me...\"

\"Why are you doing this?\"\"I have a grudge against Fish.\"

Batman stomped on his broken arm again, and Maroney let out a violent scream, and he shuddered and said: \"Someone threatened me....I can't help...\"Who threatened you?\"

Maroney was silent for a long time, no matter how much Batman tortured him, he would not say the name.

Finally, Batman said: \"I know where the Maroney family resides, and I know where your core strength and wealth are hidden. If you don't want a fire that suddenly breaks out there, you'd better cooperate with me. . …\"

Maroney lay on the ground, as if dead, and just when Batman thought he would not speak again, Maroney spit out a name in a hoarse voice:

\"Evans Falcone.\"

In the ward of the Arkham Psychiatric Hospital, Schiller retracted his arms, put down the umbrella, and leaned the tip of the umbrella to the ground, he said to Cobot, "...don't tell me this umbrella is yours Bought, you should know, you can't afford this.\"

\"So, did you steal it, or did you rob it?\" As if humiliated, he pursed his lips and glared at Schiller and said, \"I deserved it!\"

Schiller put his hands folded on the handle of the umbrella, stood there, and asked Cobot: \"Why do you say that?\"

Cobot turned his head away without answering.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the ward, and Schiller turned his head and said: \"Please come in.\"

It was Gordon who came in. After he came in, he first glanced at the situation in the ward, glanced at Cobot, and finally stopped his eyes on Schiller, saying: \"Little Falcone pleaded guilty

His tone was full of disbelief, and Gordon swallowed and said to Copert: \"I know you can't believe it, because now I can't believe it either.\"

\"But the truth is, before I got here, about a few dozen minutes ago, the godfather's own son, Evans Falcone, came to the police station. ….\"

\"Then he admitted that he directed Maroney to kill Fish Mooney.\"

Cobot's movements froze in mid-air, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets, and then he fell back on the bed like he doubted his life, and said to himself in disbelief: \"... He instructed Maroney Killed Fish, so what did I do? What did I do?\"

\"I...\" Cobot seemed to be choked, and it could be seen from his expression that in just a few seconds, he went through all his plans and actions in his mind , and then he said with great certainty: \"Impossible, how could little Falcone... It doesn't make sense at all.\"

Gordon sighed and said, \"Who said it wasn't? Me and Brock were stunned, and Evans was standing in a police station full of cops and told us that he turned himself in, that he ordered Maroney Killed Fish.\"

\"He had no motive to do this.\"Copper looked at Gordon and said:\"\"Aren't these cops the most important criminal motive? What reason did Falcone Jr do? Kill Fish What's in it for him?\"

He just finished asking, and then said incredulously: \"Okay, killing Fish might do him some good, for example, it can shock other people, but he shouldn't...

I know what you are trying to say, no matter how stupid the godfather's son is, he will not use this method to eliminate his competitors, and more importantly ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even if he does, there is no reason to come from head. \"

Gang assassination is something like this in Gotham.

used. \"Gordon frowned deeply, and could feel that the deep marks between his brows were almost carved into his face, he said: \"Everyone knows that this kind of thing happens every day, But this is not the reason why he brought this kind of thing to the table. \"

\"What is he trying to do? Why should the police department be involved?\"

Gordon thought it was absurd when he said that, what reason would a murder case involve a police department? God! What is he talking about? Is he still a cop? 5

But in Gotham, this is obviously the tacit understanding of everyone. In the assassination between gangsters, no one will call the police, it will be looked down upon by other colleagues, and it will greatly damage the reputation.

But now, the godfather's own son came to the police station and openly said that he murdered Fish, the nature of the matter was completely different.

If he doesn't admit it, no one can force him to admit it, because his surname is Falcone, but now that he admits it, everyone can't turn a blind eye to it, also because his surname is Falcone.
