"How did Galavan escape?" Harley asked.

Barnes covered his face and sighed silently.

Columbus whispered: "After the mayor left, Galavan kept confusing the director, saying that the evidence was false and that you were framing him.

If you don't believe it, you can verify it on the spot. There is a computer on the desk.

I clearly explained to him that the mayor had never entered Galavan’s bedroom, let alone stuffed a hard drive under the intact mattress in full view of everyone.

But the director was still persuaded by Galavan and took him to the inner office.

Because the computer has a fingerprint password, Galavan must activate it himself.

The office was small and not as spacious as the living room, and most of the police officers did not enter.

In this way, Galavan would have an opportunity to take advantage of.

After leaving the big team in the living room, he suddenly broke the shackles, held a police detective hostage with a pen, and asked us all to leave the office."

"I didn't know there was a paraglider hidden under the office floor. They hadn't found it before.

I thought the office was a Jedi, and as long as he guarded the living room, he would have nowhere to escape.

But no matter what, the two fast hard drives were finally saved.

As long as the evidence is there, he will be caught sooner or later. "Barnes argued.

Harley patted him on the shoulder and said softly: "We will hold a press conference later, and you can go explain to the reporters."

She doesn't take the blame!

Such a perfect plan almost failed because of his suspicion.

In fact, the main criminal Galavan escaped, and half of today's arrest operation has been lost.

"What's missing from the office?" Harley looked at Columbus, "The sniper shot him more than a dozen times, but no one was killed."

"The decorative knight's plate armor is missing." Columbus said awkwardly.

"You—" Harley was about to curse a few more words, but the miserable Ah Fu, limping on his legs, shouted outside: "Miss Quinn, Mayor Quinn, it's me!"

Well, he was stopped by the GCPD.

When Harley saw Ah Fu, she knew the purpose of his coming here.

"Director Barnes, there are countless casualties outside. The rescue work is left to you."

"What about you?" Barnes asked.

"The helicopter team is tracking Galavan. I'm going to see if I can catch him. There's also Bruce Wayne. There's no trace of him in the building."

While Harley was talking, people had already arrived at the isolation belt in front of the building.

Before Ah Fu called him to him, he whispered: "Don't talk yet. If we have something to do, let's talk alone."

After Ah Fu followed her into a command vehicle, he asked expectantly: "Have you found Master Bruce in the building?"

"Of course I can't find it."

"Ah!" Ah Fu's face turned pale, "I didn't find anyone, and now... Will Galavan's people become angry and take out their anger on the young master?"

"definitely will."

Ah Fu's eyes were red and he said excitedly: "Miss Quinn, you must save the young master!"

"The key now is to immediately lock Bruce's position, and you do it." Harley said.

"What should I do? I asked around and had no clue. If I knew where he was, I would go there myself." Ah Fu said anxiously.

Harley came close to his ear and whispered: "Go to Wenbeck Street in the Upper West Side now and find the psychic Zed."

"Psychic? What can she do?" Ah Fu said blankly.

"Looking for people and ghosts."

"Is it reliable?" Ah Fu looked doubtful.

Harley rolled her eyes, "Do you have any other choice?"

"Okay, I'll go!" Ah Fu dragged his injured leg and was about to walk out.

"Wait a minute," Harley grabbed him, "Although Zed is my friend, you still have to pay."

"How much?" Ah Fu asked.

"Three to fifty thousand, seven to eighty thousand, it's up to you."

The reason why Afu was asked to find Zed instead of Xanadu was because Xanadu was short of money and Zed had been living in a tight situation recently.

After finishing Bruce's job, she can relax for a year or two.

"As long as you find someone, money is not a problem." Ah Fu didn't hesitate at all.

"Go back and prepare a set of locating devices. If anyone asks, just tell them where you found the detention point through it." Harley said.

"Why?" Ah Fu asked puzzled.

"I don't want Zed to be retaliated by your enemies, and I don't want people to guess how I found Cobot's mother." Harley said meaningfully.

"Mrs. Cobot" Ah Fu suddenly understood, and then he was overjoyed.

"After confirming the location, don't go alone. Did you get shot in the leg?"

"The car was blown up and my leg was broken." Ah Fu explained, and then immediately said: "I will call the police personally for you.

Without you, the ordinary GCPD would not be able to defeat those cult soldiers. "

"Helicopter team, please respond when you receive it."

After Ah Fu left, Harley did not leave the command vehicle. Instead, she picked up the microphone and began to search for the location of the helicopter.

After a burst of noise, a voice came from the other side: "Mr. Mayor, we are on Third Avenue and seem to have lost trace of Galavan."

"You loser, even a helicopter can chase a paraglider away. How did you do it?" Harley scolded.

"The helicopter could only look down from above, but after the paraglider landed, it was discovered that it was empty below. At some point, Galavan had already parachuted," the pilot explained.

"Where are the police cars on the ground? Have they found any traces of Galavan?" Harley asked again.

"Your Excellency, Mayor, when he was still thirty meters above the ground, Galavan untied the rope and jumped into the big camphor tree on the roadside.

It was dark at the time, so we didn't notice it. Later, when we looked back and checked, we discovered that the branch was broken."

"A bunch of losers!" Harley hung up the phone with a dark face.

Stepping out of the command vehicle, Director Barnes looked solemn and directed the rescue and escort work in a clear and logical manner.

He has the demeanor of a calm general.

Not far away, there were reporters running back to take pictures with their cameras.

Seeing her subordinates being in the limelight, Harley felt uncomfortable. She coughed twice and deliberately walked past the isolation zone nonchalantly.

Sure enough, the reporters immediately surrounded her like seagulls seeing sardines.

"Mayor Quinn, if you misdirected this time and caused heavy casualties, will you be impeached by the parliament?"

Harley's face darkened.

"Mayor Quinn, will you take responsibility for your reckless behavior?"

Harley's face turned dark again.

"Mr. Mayor, people around the world have seen the previous massacres on television, and they look down on Gotham even more. This is inconsistent with your declaration of 'making Gotham great again'!"

Harley couldn't help it anymore and shook her cloak vigorously, inadvertently revealing the tattered cloak that had been hit by countless bullets.

"First of all, today's battle is not a shame, but the glory of Gotham. No one can look down on us.

The officers were brave.

Under my leadership, they fought the enemy to the last moment and won the final victory.

Secondly, the Order of Saint Dumas is not an ordinary person. They are the most powerful and terrifying war machine in history. They are an armed group that split from the Crusaders.

If you are not forgetful, you should remember that when they came out, everyone was wearing handcuffs.

But what's the result?

The police officers, who had an absolute advantage in numbers and weapons, could hardly defeat them.

You go back and watch the video carefully. If I hadn't rushed into the enemy's position desperately, the gangster would have escaped long ago.

Ask yourself, except for Gotham, which city can contain such a large-scale terrorist society? "

The reporters thought about a dozen terrorists who caused "world-shaking terror and attacks" in European cities such as London and Paris. Then they thought about the more than 200 monks in the order, all of whom possess peerless martial arts and earn a lot of money. Break off the handcuffs and beat ten of them with bare hands.

They suddenly shuddered.

"God, if it hadn't been for the mayor's reminder, I wouldn't have realized it. It turns out that the 'Saint Dumas Cult' is so dangerous and powerful."

"Ah, I understand. Galavan relied on this group of cultists and followers to kill almost all the upper East Side bosses and more than two hundred powerful people, and died in mysterious circumstances.

Hiss~~~The Order of Saint Dumas is so terrifying! "

"The reason why we don't think they are strong is not that they are not strong, but that in the battle just now, they were massacred by the mayor.

Alas, we cannot use Mayor Quinn as a reference! "

"Indeed, Mayor Quinn often makes us have certain illusions, for example, the GCPD is useless and as weak as chickens.

For example, the Holy Advent Crusaders are as stupid as pigs

It's all an illusion!

It's true that the mayor is too strong and too smart. "

After the mayor gave some advice, the reporters' thoughts immediately turned 180 degrees.

However, Wei Ke still asked a pointed question: "Your Excellency Mayor, we have seen with our own eyes how powerful the monks are, but we also saw that they had already entered the police car honestly.

I guess there should be a strict plan for this operation.

The accident comes from the penthouse, it seems Theo Galavan suddenly breaks the glass wall and jumps from above, causing the monks to start rioting.

Why didn't you control Galavan?

Is this a major mistake? "

Harley glanced at the black-haired female reporter appreciatively, but there was a look of embarrassment on her face.

After hesitating for a while, she waved to Barnes who was secretly watching, "Columbus, come here."

Barnes took a step forward and took it back abruptly.

"Your Excellency, Mayor, are you looking for me?"

Columbus trotted over and saluted humbly and respectfully.

Harley pointed at Columbus and told reporters: "This young man made a great contribution today, cooperating with Jim Gordon to find the key criminal evidence of Galavan.

At the same time, he also personally experienced the changes on the top floor.

As you all know, I was downstairs at the time, and I was definitely not as clear about the things above as he was. "

"Columbus, tell the reporters what happened in detail." Harley turned to Barnes again, "Director Barnes, come here too, the reporters will interview you later."

Barnes's face changed from dark to red.

He pulled Gordon and asked in a low voice: "Is Columbus the mayor's man? Galavan said it was Columbus who put the hard drive into the mattress."

Gordon shook his head firmly, "I swear, it was not Columbus who did it. Other police officers are also at the scene. You can ask them."

He didn't lie.

The box containing the hard drive was cleverly stuffed into his pocket by Harley before he reached the attic, and he put it into the mattress!

"As for Columbus," Gordon said against his will: "He was just a small patrolman before. Does the mayor like him?

And, have you forgotten?

It was you who promoted him two levels in a row, from patrol officer to senior detective. "

Barnes was stunned.

After the Columbus police detective narrated and Chief Barnes’ defense, all reporters and passers-by understood: Mayor Quinn is extremely wise, strategizing, and brave, and he did nothing wrong at all. However, the GCPD around him unexpectedly pulled his crotch. .

Well, they were not disappointed with the GCPD's overall performance today.

In fact, better than expected.

At least, they didn't run around, cry for their parents, and let all the violent people escape like they did in the past.
