In addition to the [Gold Mall], the new module also includes [Public Fund Allocation].
The latter is unlocked after completing the tour mission, and you can use the gold coins from the 1.5 million loan... Of course, it has now become 1.495 million gold.
She opened the latter first, scanned it casually, and found that it was something similar to an investment panel.
Because the city hall is currently in debt, after deducting the funds used to pay salaries at the end of the month, Weiwei can invest the remaining funds, which can be divided into "charitable funding", "commercial investment" and "urban improvement".
The available investment targets are all enterprises in Gotan City. Apart from commercial investment, it is impossible to make money in other areas. Weiwei was a little confused. Doesn't Gotan City collect taxes?
Weiwei crossed out the panel where she couldn't find the tax information for the time being, so she wasn't going to spend money recklessly for the time being. She would try to make a business investment after fully investigating the city.
[Open the "Gold Coin Mall"]

【Discount countdown 23:59:50】
Weiwei helplessly closed the pop-up interface of the novice gift package.
She wasn't going to buy the gift pack, so what could she buy with the 400 gold coins?
[Leaf Trash Can, Price: 150 Gold Coins]
[It cannot be moved or destroyed after being placed. It can collect all fallen leaves within a 200-meter radius]
【Make your city cleaner and more orderly】
[A useful hammer, price: 300 gold coins]
[Nothing is indestructible, especially for demolishing walls. It has the property of [special attack against walls], but when it hits a person, it is just an ordinary hammer.]
[Your decorators may need this]

[You can spray out irregular and wonderful patterns and decorate the floor. As long as you work on the painted floor, employees will have greater work motivation]
[There will always be employees who want to slack off, and that’s when you need this]
She only had 400 gold in her hand that she had just obtained through fraud, and the game time was only three hours away... Today (April 1st) was about to pass, so she thought about it and bought the hammer.
Compared to a trash can, she, who is weak, innocent, and has just been assassinated, needs a hammer more - for self-defense.
A small reddish-brown hammer appeared in her package. The handle of the hammer could be held in one hand. It was weightless. Weiwei waved it in her hand.
"Let's go check out the spot first."
The current mission requires her to contact Black Mask, who is related to the Gotham gang. Improving the public security in Gotham also requires getting rid of Black Mask. Considering the poor public security in Gotham and the terrible hostility rate of 1/3, she cannot travel around as the mayor.
She took off her glasses, and the title of "Mayor" above her head disappeared, and her appearance changed as well.
The unapproachable noble blonde woman turned into an ordinary girl with chestnut green eyes and slightly pale skin.
——Same as the corpse under the desk.
The light green pupils seemed to reflect the lake hidden deep in the forest, and the long chestnut hair was slightly curled at the ends. She looked very well behaved and her age seemed younger for no reason.
She was still wearing the same thin white robe, but it seemed inappropriate to run around outside like this.
Weiwei held a hammer in one hand and had the collected M1911 on her waist. She took out a brown long jacket, blue jeans, and black Martin boots from the lounge. They seemed to be men's styles and were more than one size larger. But after putting them on, this free appearance automatically transformed into a size that suited Weiwei's body.
She climbed out of the lounge window and her figure quickly blended into the night.
With a detailed map and enough patience, it is easy to leave the town hall without seeing other people.
But standing on the street, Weiwei was speechless for a moment.
The game was really huge. After she walked out of the town hall, she realized that this was not like any other game she had played before. Players could not teleport. Did the mayor have to walk 20 kilometers to beat up Black Mask?
Is there really such a shabby mayor in this world?
So Weiwei, who had just left the city hall, went back and decided to pry open a car at random.
——The Town Hall car.
But just as Weiwei tried to climb over the wall (she had a map for reference, so she naturally took the straight line from the outer perimeter to the underground garage), a small green dot representing a passerby quickly overlapped with her at a flying speed, then passed her, and then - I don't know if it noticed something, but returned here again.
Weiwei: “…”
Judging from the speed of the construction team that drove to repair the wall, it seems that they can really fly!
Now, this "other" falls from the sky.
"Uh...what are you doing?" The guy actually asked her back!
On the map, the occupation of a strange invader also appeared -
Spider-Man
Wait, is there an extra separator in the middle? If Weiwei guessed correctly, this guy should be a "Spiderman"? Not Spider-Man, right? What kind of weird profession is Spider-Man? Is there a bug in the game again? Even the spelling is wrong? Thinking of the corpse under the desk, the possibility of a game bug is not low.
But Weiwei didn't ask for the time being. She decided to wait and see what the situation was.
Peter felt…very embarrassed.
Peter Parker, AKA Spider-Man, is currently 16 years old and a sophomore at Midtown High School - Midtown High School is in New York.
Yet for now, he was treading on Gotan's soil.
Of course, he came to Gotan as an ordinary exchange student for one semester and just arrived yesterday.
...But when Gotan put on the hood, his behavior seemed to be crossing the line.
Because the city of Gotham has their own homegrown hero, Batman, who has been fighting crime in the dark for over a decade.
As a "good neighbor in New York", Peter certainly did not accidentally bring his New York behavior habits to Gotham - he didn't even wear a full uniform, but just put on his own mask and tried his best to cover it with a hood.
If someone happened to look up, they would just find someone flying quickly in the air. But Peter was fast enough that no one would... notice him, right? Probably.
There was no other way, he really needed to get his wallet back, which contained all his documents. If he couldn't find it, he might not even be able to enter the school... Why were the school rules of Gotham College so strict?
He had dropped off the guy who stole his wallet at the back door of the GCPD - the front door was reserved for Batman, and now, with his wallet just retrieved, he was making eyes at some girl.
A girl climbing on the wall.
Wrapped in a man's coat, her face looked very small - she didn't look like she should be here.
"I guess I should ask you," the other person said, "Are you a thief?"
Peter:! ?
"I'm not—"
Weiwei: “…”
well.
[The security level is -10][The security level is -10][The security level is -10]...Keep calm, keep calm, keep calm...
There’s no way, this is Gotan, Weiwei comforted herself, I can’t move to another city, right?
The citizens can move away, but she is the mayor.
Although Gotham is a city where "you'll encounter sniper cases as soon as you take office", "the secretary-general colludes with the gang to kill the mayor", and "there are thieves visiting the city hall at night", you are the mayor. Everyone can dislike it, but as the mayor, how can you dislike it?
No... I still feel a little bit resentful...
Is this city still okay?
Weiwei advised calmly, "You are a green name, so you are not a bad person, right? Being a thief is not a promising career, you should just go to work. Being a construction worker is dangerous, but the salary is still good, right?"
Why are you so desperate that you want to become a thief?
While most citizens are hostile to the mayor and have red names, this thief is still a green name. Maybe he just steals things because he can't make ends meet? Is it possible that a spelling bug has blocked his salary, so that other workers have received their salary, but only Spider-Man doesn't?
That's right. Imagine if all the NPCs around you are "Spiderman" and this guy is the only one who is "Spider-Man", you might be discriminated against professionally... and this is Gotham!
Considering that this is Gotam City with a public safety rating of -10, the possibility of "making life untenable" is not low.
——The mayor himself can hardly make ends meet!
"No, I'm really not..." Peter was extremely embarrassed, but looking at the girl riding on the wall in front of him, he suddenly realized something, "Aren't you more suspicious?"
The former residence of a wealthy family, Gotham's Town Hall, was later converted into a town hall, but most of the original architecture was still preserved.
In other words, the city hall has to spend a lot of money every year just to repair and maintain this building that is almost a work of art, and anti-theft devices that can damage the walls are often not installed on the walls.
The girl in front of him might be a local of Gotan, Peter guessed. She was familiar with these things, so she was able to sneak here smoothly. This is almost the central part of the building complex.
She might be the thief because she chose the unconventional method of climbing over the wall.
Weiwei: “…”
She once again marveled at the NPC's intelligence, and seeing that persuasion didn't work, she looked at the map and decided to find another way to make Spider-Man realize that the job of "thief" was not easy.
Calculating the time well, she quickly jumped down from the wall and lay down in the grass the next second.
Peter was startled, then -
"Hey, who are you?"
Of course there were people patrolling the City Hall late at night, and the police searchlight quickly swept over. Fortunately, Peter quickly covered his face (mainly with the hood), and then ran away at his speed which was far superior to that of ordinary people.
As he ran away, he noticed that the girl slinked away while the police officer's attention was distracted by him.
The fact that he is Spider-Man's thief by profession is just a weird little episode. Weiwei suspects that he spawns regularly at night and his specialty is [very fast]. If she were wearing the mayor's glasses, she would have immediately called the guards to arrest him.
"Huh?"
Yes.
Since she wants to take back her own territory, why doesn't she wear [mayor glasses]?
After brushing off the grass debris on her body, Weiwei stood up straight, and soon put on her glasses and walked towards the garage openly.
The sound of high heels tapped on the bricks. The surroundings were extremely quiet. The light was dim and in the distance, the sound of people patrolling could be heard. Soon, they would walk up to Weiwei and call out "Mayor".
That's how it should be.
"Bang--"
The bullet streaked across the night sky, leaving a streak of light too fast to be captured.
The picture turns black and white again.
The blonde woman fell to the ground.
This time, the gun was aimed at the heart.
Weiwei: “…”
Don't you killers have any holidays?
This time, Weiwei did not choose to [resurrect immediately], but to [wait a moment], and the frozen time began to flow again - she wanted to see if the killer would come to check on the situation.
However, on the map, the strange red dot named "Killer" did not choose to get closer to check, but fired three shots in a row, each of which hit a vital part of the human body.
