Because of the body, Sheila went back early - she didn't get through to Millie.

When she enrolled, Sheila did not choose to live in the dormitory of Gotham College, but instead traveled back and forth between the old town and Nahe Island every day because the mayor might need her at any time.

Just like last time.

But today, the door of the apartment where she and Millie lived together was a little loose.

A black mouse emerged from the water pipe on the outer wall, and a gray mouse named Scott emerged from her sleeve. The two rodents touched heads and quickly exchanged some information.

Then, Scott jumped onto Sheila's shoulder--

"A woman brought Millie back... and then two boys in strange costumes came? So one of them is Robin, yes, you saw him in the sewer last time... who is the other one? A weirdo wearing a KFC paper bag with only two holes showing, and he can climb on the wall?"

"...they all left, but Millie stayed?"

Sheila pushed the door open and fell into silence.

The glass vase was broken, the roses that had just been replaced that morning were stepped on a few times, her homework for the week, which had been placed on the coffee table, was now half soaked in water, the sofa was twisted and crooked, and there were two and a half footprints left on the snow-white wall.

Sheila went to check on Millie first. She was sleeping soundly and seemed to be fine.

Then, Sheila sat in the living room, watching the rain begin to fall outside the window and the sky darken. She called her partner Scott, "Who is easier to find, that woman or Robin?"

"Really... That woman stayed longer and left enough of her presence..."

She touched the tip of Scott's nose and said, "Well, let's go."

The mayor said that you cannot be a criminal, but in a city like Gotham, you cannot just take advantage of others, because that would mean you are easy to bully.

But the "rat catcher" is not someone who can be easily bullied. Whoever messes up their house like this will have to pay!

Three hours ago.

Qiao frowned and handcuffed the car robber, who fell unconscious, but the price was the loss of the car.

He opened his phone and looked at it: "The two boys said they had something to do and left first. How come they are all busy all of a sudden?"

The new guy who caused the trouble sat on the motorcycle, opened the rear compartment and checked the body... Qiao put away his phone, feeling a little headache, this new guy didn't seem to be very obedient.

"How about sending the body back to the police station first?" the new guy asked. "Will it be sent for autopsy?"

"The cause of death is obvious, Remington, a long-range heavy sniper rifle," Joe glanced at her, "You still have a lot to learn... The real problem is the body itself."

Joe grabbed the corpse's wrist and exerted force, feeling as if he was holding something harder than steel.

He let go of the body without leaving any marks.

The girl's eyes were open and she had four wounds on her body, but no other injuries, including abrasions, made sense.

The place where the body was found was obviously not the real crime scene, but was moved from the crime scene to the drain. The body did not have any scars. She did not look dead, but more like an exquisite human-shaped doll.

Qiao held a cigarette in his mouth but did not light it. He whispered, "Maybe we should let the MCU handle it."

Weiwei: Wait, our case is so unsuccessful?

No one could take the reward away from her, especially since she already knew who the murderer was!

Weiwei: "Must it be handed over to the MCU? Can't we investigate? We are investigating, aren't we?"

Joe glanced at her and said, "Why do you think I agreed to come to Crime Alley first instead of sending the body back to the GCPD? Newbie, when I was your age I wanted to make some achievements. Are you satisfied now? If you are satisfied, we will go back to the police station. This is not a case we can handle."

He shook his head, patted the hood of the car, and muttered, "Okay, it still works. You drive a motorcycle... eh? Where's your motorcycle?"

"It's okay," Weiwei squeezed into the back seat holding the body, "My motorcycle will drive back by itself."

Drive it yourself, do you think that's the Batmobile?

Joe deadpanned, "Your motorcycle can transform into a robot."

Forget it, he was too lazy to care, at most he gave a command -

"Don't mess with the body."

Of course Weiwei has to do something to the corpse!

As soon as she touched the corpse, four options appeared before her eyes.

[A corpse with the word "VV" carved on the back of the neck. It seems that someone has seen her.]

Description changed?

The original description was, "An unknown corpse," so will this description be updated in real time based on the player's behavior?

Obviously, the options have been updated as well.

[Players can choose -

a. Spend 1000 gold (personal property) to burn

b. Spend 2000 gold (personal property) to buy a normal tombstone

c. Snatch the corpse, and the Iceberg Restaurant will serve you all the time (there is a chance to get a buff: Batman's special attention)

d. Spend 50 diamonds (personal property) to buy a super luxurious tombstone and place an advertisement in all newspapers in Kotan (there is a chance to meet investor Wayne)]

Although a poor person like Weiwei has plenty of gold coins, she only has 80 diamonds at full count. She will not choose option D before her game tokens become free.

As for option C, Weiwei frowned. Just a few minutes ago, AI sent her a screen recording, and then she had -

[You get a fixed state: Batman's attention]

[As the guardian of the darkness in Gotham, Batman is gradually paying more attention to the mayor. He may be an enemy or a friend. It all depends on how you do it.]

What if I stacked another Attention? Vivi, who hadn't stacked the buff, was eager to try.

But, forget it...Batman has a hard time too, let the vigilante who roams around late at night have a good sleep.

Weiwei actually has no ill feelings towards Batman. Who would dislike a vigilante who doesn't ask for salary but works diligently for you every night? You know, fighting criminals is the government's responsibility. Batman appeared only because the previous Gotham City did not do well.

But she didn't think about exploring Batman's true identity - it's not difficult with the map - and then taking this opportunity to exploit him. If she wanted to exploit even a guy who was already working voluntarily, Weiwei felt that it would be unreasonable for her not to go and get him... It was too conscienceless.

Anyway, everyone is working hard for the betterment of Kotan. As long as the goal is the same, even if the methods are different, we will not be hostile to each other.

——She believed it so firmly.

She decided to try her best to fight the case.

She chose A.

[Spend 1000 gold (personal property) to burn]

...nothing happened.

Ah, it's not like nothing happened—

[You consumed 1,000 gold of personal property]

Weiwei: “?”

The car was driving on the street with a hood that had sagged off a section. In the blind spot of the two people in the car, the stone gargoyle directly above them suddenly came to life.

The winged creature swooped down from above and smashed the car door. Weiwei reached out her hand but hesitated for a moment. At that moment, the gargoyle snatched the corpse and flew upwards.

In the passenger seat, the gangster who had just woken up from a coma saw this abnormal scene. He rolled his eyes and fainted again.

Qiao was also stunned. Many people in the same row of cars raised their phones to record the spectacle of the drop-shaped beast snatching people. Qiao tapped the steering wheel and yelled to Weiwei, "Help me show the way, we'll catch up—"

It’s not too late to catch up now!

But Weiwei guessed...it might be impossible to catch up.

They drove all the way to the Iceberg Chemical Plant, and after an explosion, the chemical plant has now resumed operation.

The only difference from the last fake office is that this time they actually hired employees to start processing building materials, and all the building materials will eventually be used for underground construction.

Although Sherk, as the person in charge, only received a salary of 1 gold, the others still received normal wages - Weiwei chose the lowest salary among the system-recommended wages.

The person currently overseeing the work here is the deputy factory owner, a chubby man who was recommended by Sherk.

He looked at the ID that Qiao showed him and wiped the sweat off his forehead. "There was indeed a flying gargoyle flying over here. To be honest, if there was no surveillance evidence, I would have suspected that the workers were lying."

He sighed: "But when we were working, the gargoyles broke open the blast furnace and threw a man into it. We still need to spend money to repair it... Really, officer, I'm not lying, this is so strange-"

"It's not a person," Qiao pushed him aside and strode forward, "it's a corpse."

"That's good, that's good..."

Whether it was a human or a corpse, it was obviously thrown into the fire.

Qiao stood in the hot factory, the firelight reflected his pupils red. After a long while, he said, "...I have a daughter."

He pulled out a cigarette, lit it this time, and said, "Let's go."

He turned his head: "!?"

The newcomer disappeared as suddenly as her motorcycle.

Weiwei originally just wanted to take a look at the factory under her management. Although the factory's operation has always consumed public funds from the municipal government...but isn't the municipal government's money her money?

So in order to ensure that the money was used reasonably, when recruiting, she first screened out those with red names among those recommended by Sherk - Gotan had too many red names. If he threw a motorcycle at ten people, at least three of them would be red names. Weiwei didn't blame him - and then she screened out those who didn't have "hardworking" in their attributes.

You can be ambitious, but you must be diligent and hardworking - because you can't always get [Red Spray Paint] in the Gold Mall, and the factory takes up too much space, so you have to use it sparingly.

But she just took a quick glance and noticed someone was slacking off.

There were several people gathered together and talking quietly. Weiwei approached them lightly and opened the map.

But the moment she saw the map, she fell silent.

If the screen is only this big and the map is all Gotan, then the player can only see a lot of small dots. They need to zoom in on part of the map and the career information will appear on the small dots. To view specific information (only for Weiwei's employees), they have to walk nearby.

I explain all this to illustrate that when Weiwei was looking at the map and noticed that the entire factory was full of green names, she would not be idle and would zoom in on this area to check one by one to see if there were any changes to the green names.

Now there is a change -

[Ordinary worker 1 (the cat girl has been bought)] [Ordinary worker 2 (the cat girl has been bought)]

[Gatekeeper (Catwoman has bought it)]

Weiwei: “?”

She was furious.

Catwoman hired workers. What is she doing?

Since you have money, why don't you just bribe the mayor?
