Chapter 82 Published



Weiwei pinned the yellow rose to her chest.

The little man in the rose was hidden under the layers of petals, but his voice rang in Weiwei's ears - thanks to Robin's skills - he said: "If I were Crane, not only would I want to control Gotham City, he would also want to destroy me and destroy Batman who often defeated him."

"Whether it's investigating my true identity and revealing it to the public, or attacking those I protect," Batman said, "He's one of the greatest masters of playing with fear, but he can't overcome his own fear, and he has to admit that he's afraid of me... If I were him, I would choose to destroy the East Side as it is now."

Weiwei squatted in Crime Alley, raised her hands and tried to make her cape flutter, posing in a cool and dazzling manner: "Why?"

Batman said calmly: "Because the East End gave me hope for a better future. I think this is one of the reasons why he chose to work with Harvey Dent."

Weiwei: “?” She gave up bothering with her black cloak and decided to sit down and listen to the big bat's stories about the past.

"Harvey," Batman was silent for a moment, "He used to be a very good man, known as the Knight of Light in Gotham. He was the best prosecutor ever and was running for mayor."

Current mayor Weiwei: “…”

"But then, he had a bad day, as Chou said, 'a bad day', and it also tortured his mental state. He began to become irritable and angry. Half of his face was normal, and the other half was scarier than the devil. So he really became a devil," Batman's voice dropped. "He became the famous criminal Two-Face in Gotham. I always threw him into Arkham because he was already a madman, but Arkham didn't cure him."

"Arkham didn't cure Xiao Chou either," Weiwei thought for a moment, "but I can cure him, all thanks to you."

[Congratulations to the player for obtaining "Crazy Gotan" Rose x1 (limited to 7 days), "Sun Rider" Rose x1 (limited to 5 days) in the last harvest]

Batman collected them all for her, which made Weiwei wonder if he collected them personally instead of relying on the system to collect them with one click... Is there some strange metaphysics behind the shipment?

Batman paused: "Even if the physical injuries are healed, the pain in the heart cannot be relieved--"

"No," Weiwei clicked on the panel that Batman couldn't see. A bright red rose like blood occupied a small grid. "He can choose to let his heart go back to the time when nothing happened. Then he will start to review everything he has done... If it was the original Knight of Light, what would he do?"

"Batman," Weiwei unilaterally cut off the call with Robin and the others, "In fact, you and I both know that I have a way to get you out of this state, but please, it's my house that was invaded... But now we can make a deal. I bail you out and you train me. This is a fair deal, but you help me work extra and manage the rose field for me. This is something I didn't ask for but you took the initiative to do - so, I can give you a rose."

"Let Harvey become a Knight of Light, or put him back in Arkham?" Weiwei spread her hands. "I don't care. In my eyes, no matter what his heart is like, he will always be a criminal, but you have the right to choose."

The little man in the flower stopped talking.

The sun sets and disappears below the horizon.

Weiwei looked at the golden light flowing on her arms. As night fell, people began to while away their good time again.

After discovering the bat was trapped in the flower, both parties chose a compromise solution. Batman continued to train Vivi, through oral instruction, and Vivi would carry the flower with her instead of abandoning it in the manor.

I wonder what Robin and the others are thinking... Do they think that bats are like the Princess and the Pea, who is petite, weak, and lonely?

"It's not my right to choose," Batman's voice resounded, "It's Harvey's choice, but before that, I need to test what the rose you mentioned is good for and what side effects it has."

The petals in front of him obscured the view and he could only see a small patch of sky in layers, like a narrow wellhead. When Weiwei was talking, he could only hear her voice but could not see her expression.

But come to think of it, that expression should be calm, or would it be a raised eyebrow out of amusement?

Vivi White, no, that's Vivi, this girl, she is not human.

They once guessed that she was a homeless child, or a child who followed Mr. C wholeheartedly after being rescued by him, but during the few days he spent with Weiwei, he gradually discovered that Weiwei was actually a person who was indifferent to everything, and the only thing that could move her was probably to transform Gotan and make this city a better place.

——Make this city truly better.

She didn't want to occupy it or destroy it, she just wanted to help it.

But there is only this one command in her life. She doesn't care about her past and never thinks about the future... She doesn't even eat, drink water, or sleep. She has no hobbies and no life of her own. She is like a dummy that is more refined than a robot.

"Andrew wanted to change from a robot to a human. He was treated like a human. He learned how to learn, and then he learned how to love," Bruce recalled the story Martha told him when he was a child, sitting at the head of his bed. "He made himself more complete by gaining emotions, Bruce...Emotions are the biggest difference between us and machines, and in fact, this also makes us more complete."

In the moment of the conversation just now, when he couldn't see the other person's face, Bruce Wayne vaguely thought that it was "Mr. C" who was communicating with him. They both had the same indifference to humans, but there were still subtle differences. Mr. C was a high-ranking player, while Vivi was staying in this world, but she didn't think that this world was real - so she only thought about completing the task... and never thought about life.

Perhaps the day she completes her mission will be the day she becomes a doll again and is placed in Mr. C's collection room.

…but this kid didn’t care.

"Side effects?" Weiwei muttered, "It's not a big deal for me."

This sentence made Bruce more wary of Rose in his heart: "If even the penguin man can be recycled, then Harvey's value is greater than the penguin man." He tentatively said.

"Because he can change from a bad guy to a good guy, and become a Knight of Light?" Weiwei laughed, "But, isn't it true that... all bad guys can change from bad guys to good guys, Bruce? Including Chou."

Bruce's heart trembled slightly.

Vivi jumped down from the rooftop, crossed the streets of Crime Alley, and trotted to the cathedral while being avoided by others. She had discussed with Millie in advance today that she would provide decorations for tonight's thank-you banquet - there were so many roses in the entire manor that they could not be used up, and if they were all stacked in Vivi's space package, they could let the roses flood the entire cathedral.

After finishing training, she came to help with yellow roses, but after playing with the bouquet for a while, she ran away because she was too bored. In the sunset, she ran around the nearby streets and high-rise buildings for a while, but this time she had to go back -

The mayor, nicknamed "Anna Elek," has arrived.

Xiaohao, who appeared from the stacked panels, got out of the car. Her golden hair, which was draped over her shoulders instead of tied up, made her look much friendlier. Under Weiwei's control, Xiaohao first gave Millie a hug, and then went upstairs surrounded by people.

The space on the second floor is slightly larger than that on the first floor.

The invitations to the thank-you banquet were drawn by the children themselves. The drinks were either donated or ordinary and cheap. Most of the food was provided by nearby businesses, and a small portion was paid for with charity money. Robin and Nightwing had said early that they had something to do tonight and had to leave. Barbara went home, and Catwoman, who was able to use the human body to move around this evening, was a rare occasion... but no one dared to take the drinks from her plate.

Catwoman leaned against the wall with a half-smile in one hand, holding a cup of Coke. Then, she saw the woman who was surrounded by people coming over and taking another cup of Coke from her plate. She blinked and said, "What a coincidence! I'm not wearing earrings tonight."

During their last meeting, Catwoman stole her blue earrings in revenge for the guy stealing her earrings, and the earrings disappeared.

A vindictive woman, Selena thought to herself, just like me.

Weiwei also went upstairs at this time, bringing a bouquet of roses. She was wearing a "Night Watchman" suit that covered half of her face. She was dressed in black and dark green. The only bright spot on her body was probably the yellow rose on her chest.

At this time, half of the guests on the second floor had arrived.

The mayor; Gordon, the chief of GCPD; Timothy Drake, the young president of Wayne Enterprises, and his brother Richard Grayson; Hogg, the head of the City Hall Security Department, drove the car for the mayor's wife and now stood beside the mayor in a semi-guarding posture; Sherk, who had a rare moment of leisure; Violin, who was also on the invitation list, stood alone in a corner with his arms folded, as if observing everyone; the students from Gotham College who had been here as volunteers were also here, and Vivi also saw an acquaintance who had seen her body before...

At a glance, half of them were Weiwei's acquaintances.

The children were also responsible for the welcoming work. This dinner was a real thank-you dinner rather than a business social event. The children who helped Vivi pick the flowers lowered their heads shyly, and from time to time other children poked their heads out of the door and then ran away laughing.

Millie looked helpless: "Originally they should go to bed after finishing their evening classes, but tonight is an exception. Now they are too excited and can't sleep at all."

Violin came over and stood behind Weiwei, then he covered his nose and sneezed softly: "It seems that there are too many roses..."

Weiwei: "I brought all the roses."

"..." He immediately put his hands behind his back, "They all smell very good, with a rich fragrance."

At this time, Sherk naturally went to see the mayor. Weiwei controlled two accounts by herself, chatting with them casually. Seeing others eating cakes, she was actually a little eager to do something, but -

But the painting style is different!

No matter how realistic the graphics in the game are, you can still tell that it is a game, so when Weiwei faces food, she always feels... won't this thing be poisonous if I eat it?

It really takes courage, she needs to wait a little longer!

The only free Oracle joked in the communication: "When the men are all shirking their responsibilities due to various reasons, I am the only one who is still struggling at my post... The position on the train disappeared at Triangle Gorge. As for Two-Face, his men have all returned to Odisburg, which was once the territory of Black Mask. After he was imprisoned, his men have retreated. Currently, other forces hope to take a bite out of him. Two-Face is too unpredictable. He always makes decisions with coins. If we act immediately, no one knows what he will do, especially since we haven't found his hiding place yet."

"At least we have identified the target," Weiwei said, "The Two-Face..."

Her voice suddenly disappeared from the communication.

Everyone at the party saw that the new vigilante named "Night Watchman" suddenly ran to the second-floor window, then climbed out of the window and stood on the balcony. The iconic water pipe stretched out from under her cuffs, and then a handful of gold coins appeared in her hand.

"Millie," Vivi said, "tell the kids to close the other windows!"

The gold coins flew into the sky like flowers scattered by a fairy. Weiwei's water pipe hit the gold coins, knocking several of them out at high speed.

Coins with golden light flew in all directions, and the air was filled with groans and screams from people who had been hit by the coins.

She saw Two-Face's hand appear on the map, not underground, but above ground.

After these days of hard work, she believed that the underground was basically her territory.

Vivi doesn't have a batarang—

So she chose her most handy weapon, the gold coins that she could take out at any time!
