When she turned back to look who was there, Selina happened to meet a camera lens.
David nodded in satisfaction and turned his phone for her to see.
"How was the shot? Is the angle okay?"
On the screen of the mobile phone, it happened to be an image of Selina wearing the stolen sapphire ring in her hand, smiling like a cute little thief.
"Delete it!"
Seeing that the evidence of her theft was with David, Selina was anxious and reached out to grab the phone.
But David easily backed away, put his phone in his pocket in front of her, and tapped it through his pockets.
"This is the evidence that will be used in court in the future."
"Give it to me!"
Selina grabbed the phone from David's hand and wanted to delete the evidence that captured her face. Her movements were vigorous and agile, but every few times she reached out to grab it, she was just a step slower than David.
David looked relaxed, like a bee or a butterfly dancing among flowers, in contrast to Selina, who couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes and looked unhappy.
After a few moves, Selina was like a college student who didn't exercise very much, dropping to her knees, panting from exhaustion, and suddenly looking behind David in surprise, as if there was something terrible behind him.
"What is that?!"
"Don't use such childish tricks."
Despite Selina's superb acting skills and the unexpected timing and sequence of her moves, David didn't turn his head and retorted with a dull expression.
Selina Kyle, nicknamed Catwoman, is an international thief who targets jewelry, cultural relics, and other precious works of art. She has world-class theft techniques and can steal any targets in any heavily guarded environment.
Although Selina is still young now, he doesn't believe that such two small moves can make Selina, who is a habitual thief, exhausted.
"As a thief, do you have this little physical strength? You're not afraid of being caught and taken to the police station."
Snapped!
"A word of warning, outsider. Don't provoke anyone in Gotham, even if she is just a thief."
Selina, who was slightly annoyed by David's joke, pulled out a black whip from her waist bag and fiercely flicked it, which caused a sound that made people's hearts tremble. From fear or something else, no one knows!
Her whole temperament changed, from a delicate little flower to a black rose with thorns.
"You're a bit too late with your words. I just had a face-to-face meeting with the darkest and coldest person in Gotham."
Seeing the young Catwoman whose temperament changed taking out a weapon, David raised his eyebrows, feeling a little curious.
"By the way, how do you know I'm a foreigner?"
"Your leather windbreaker is very beautiful.
But in Gotham, where there is always rain and humidity, there are only two kinds of people who wear it."
Selina replied while taking off her glasses, and with a flick of the whip, the black whip stretched several meters in the blink of an eye like a spirit snake and struck David.
"One is someone like you who doesn't understand Gotham, and the other is some rich guy who is used to throwing away luxury goods once!"
"You're right."
Grabbing the whip that hit the hem of his windbreaker, David glanced at it and smiled.
"But why can't I be the latter?"
The young Catwoman paid no attention to David's question. She attempted to pull back her whip, causing David to stagger, but to her surprise, the whip seemed to be as if it was tightly held by a hydraulic press, rendering it immovable. Even using both hands had the same result, leading to her pushing her feet against the ground and slipping on the wet surface.
"Damn it, what did your parents feed you when you were young!"
She felt that wrestling with a cow wasn't that tiring compared to him.
"Vegetables, apple pie, oatmeal?
Every now and then a glass of milk in the morning?"
Holding the whip with one hand, David pulled it slightly, and Selina's light body flew a few meters and fell to the other side, resulting in her being covered with mud and water, causing her to panic.
"You're lighter than I thought."
He turned around, looked at Selina who was hurting from the fall, and raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.
"How can I run fast if I am not light?
You really are a gentleman, Mr. Outsider."
Even though her voice revealed some hurt due to injury, Selina stood up limping with her hands on her waist, speaking sarcastically, mocking him and complaining, revealing some intention to surrender, but suddenly, the next second she pulled out a stun gun from her bag.
The high-pressure nitrogen gas in the magazine was released quickly, and the two electrodes in the barrel shot out in a surprise attack.
"Let's see if you can stand this!"
Thorn!
The moment the two electrodes hit David's chest, a high-voltage current was released, which was enough to make a 300-pound man lose his consciousness immediately, convulsing and twitching, and falling into a ball on the ground.
The scene Selina expected didn't happen, and the expression on her face froze, resulting in her looking like a shocked cat with a smug expression.
Like literally no one, David tore off the barbs on his clothes and walked towards her.
"What kind of monster are you?"
Looking at David coming over, Selina panicked, like a cornered kitten in trouble, and wanted to slip away, but was blocked at the end of the alley.
"What do you want to do?"
There was no way ahead, and she nervously backed up, resulting in her back touching the wall, coming to a realization that David was definitely not following up to catch a thief.
"Ma'am, you don't want the evidence of your theft to be discovered by the police, do you?"
(͡ ͡° ͜ つ ͡͡°)
David said slowly and with some teasing started walking near her, covering her body from any view with his frame, resulting in a kabedon, and took out his phone, and shook it in front of her face.
...
"Be more specific."
In a temporary hotel apartment.
Selina, who was caught, had a helpless expression on her face.
The person in front of her had just threatened her to ask her to collect information for him with the evidence of her theft, but it was unclear what information he wanted to be collected.
"I want to know all the big things that happened in Gotham recently.
Especially related to the gangs."
David emphasized the 'gang part'.
Eric came to Gotham. According to what he said before he left, he didn't come to Gotham just to enjoy himself freely and rely on his ability in a city with loose laws.
'There are many numb people waiting to be conquered.
'I will come back and erase everything that makes me uncomfortable. '
This fellow is quite ambitious.
A strange light flashed across his eyes.
Unlike Clark, Eric immediately thought about erasing this weakness after discovering his weakness.
He came to Gotham, most likely to conquer a group of people, and then take them back to the town, dig up all the meteorites and destroy them, and then thinking nothing in the world could stop him.
But the world is not as simple as he thought.
"You should know that there are more gangsters in Gotham than hotels that provide hot water?"
She didn't know where this guy came from, and how he couldn't even be knocked down by the stun gun, Selina fiddled with her fired stun gun feeling a little depressed, and replied.
"Who are the most well-known and biggest gang leaders in Gotham?"
David thought for a while, judging from Eric's mentality that swelled immediately after gaining the ability, he might look down on ordinary small gangsters.
"Black Mask, Roman Carmine Falcone, Penguin..."
Selina counted the famous gang leaders in Gotham with her fingers.
"I want some news about them, their latest movements, and see if there is anything unusual."
"Are you serious?"
Hearing David's statement, she snapped her fingers, raised her head slightly with her eyes wide open,
"Do you think of them as those little hooligans in your small town who would pee their pants when they saw the sheriff coming over to ask questions?"
It's no exaggeration to say that every one of these gang bosses can shake Gotham's entire structure. They are all evil and cruel monsters who can eat people without spitting out bones.
The children in Gotham just hearing these few names will be scared to cry.
People even think it is better to offend the mayor than offend them.
