Chapter 15 - Crazy Woman Reporter

As for what kind of chaos Gotham would become if the broadcast was cut off, Eugene was completely out of the question, and if chaos actually attracted bats, that would be the best.

 

    He picks up Barbara, who is nearby, and pushes her into the carriage in her wheelchair.

 

    "Well done. You have the talent to be an anchorwoman."

 

    Vico secretly skimmed his mouth next to it. Can you act? Can you be a female anchor? They do this line but under a lot of hard work, what makeup, etiquette, but also need a variety of knowledge, but very hard.

 

    Barbara was shivering with cold, thoroughly soaked by the rain, but her pale lips trembled.

 

    "If we do this, will my father be safe?"

 

    Eugene signals Vic and Pete to get into the car. They are kidnapped, and Cindy starts the car as they reluctantly get up.

 

    "I'm not sure, but using my name as a threat will at least buy your father some time." Eugene searches the compartment, finds a towel, and hands it to Barbara.

 

    "Because it would increase the kidnappers' concerns about the consequences of upsetting Deathstroke, and then they would think twice about the means they were going to use on Chief Gordon. That's the time we need."

 

    At the wheel, Cindy presses down on the gas pedal. Her reflexes make driving effortless. She even has time to join Eugene and Barbara's conversation.

 

    Barbara nodded and looked gratefully at Eugene.

 

    "Thank you. You're a good man."

 

    "Forget the nice guy card, I'll give Gordon the bill when I get him out." Eugene immediately shakes his head in denial. The nice guy card is bad luck.

 

    "Oh, you really don't look like a killer, and you can make jokes."

 

    Eugene's remark is taken as a joke, and Barbara is finally relaxed. She feels tired, but now she has some backbone, and the reputation of the world's most powerful mercenary makes her more confident that Gordon is safe.

 

    Vico sits quietly across the table and watches them, feeling sure that the world is coming to an end.

 

    The world's most famous mass murderer was laughing and joking with the daughter of the GCPD commissioner, and he was live-streaming a bizarre fake death scene that made Vico think the world was going crazy.

 

    And by the way, Deathstroke is on his way to save Chief Gordon, offering a $2 million reward for Gordon's life.

 

    "Killing someone to save another human being is the most illogical yet logical thing I've ever heard."

 

    After thinking about it, Vico talks to Eugene, despite Peter's eyes.

 

    Eugene looks at her. She hasn't been on camera the whole time. Maybe now the station thinks she's dead? But had she relapsed so quickly and forgotten her fears?

 

    "Kill one and save another. It's a balance. I'm doing what I have to do."

 

    He took off his helmet, the car was warmer, the moisture was condensed into the helmet, like a steamer, and it had never occurred to him how uncomfortable the uniform was to wear.

 

    Vera, though startled by his male identity, asked him professionally only for a moment: "So do you think you're a psychopath? Mr. Deathstroke, do you ever think there's something wrong with you?"

 

    Peter next to her widened his eyes. It was a message.

 

    Eugene gets a little interested, because this is a question that she, from another world, has asked Batman.

 

    "So do you think the world is normal?" He had read the comic and given the standard answer, which was rhetorical.

 

    Sure enough, the answer made Vico thoughtful, and she frowned and stopped talking.

 

    Pete is relieved, MD, this time back must resign, quit, pay no matter how much quit, too exciting.

 

    Cindy, who was driving the car, had also heard Eugene's theory about balance. She did not know that it was just nonsense. On the contrary, she thought it was very philosophical, just like those old Oriental proverbs.

 

    As the car sped through the streets in the torrential rain, they encountered some muggers or road bullies who were also out in search of prey during the storm, but Cindy had only to poke her head out of the window and all the punks were scared shitless.

 

    After all this time on the road, Vico was less afraid, and she realized that Deathstroke was not as crazy as the rumor had it, but had his own understanding of the world and his own unique perception.

 

    When she saw the thugs in her way running away, she sighed in disappointment, and if Deathstroke fought with them, maybe she could shoot a little Easter egg or something.

 

    "You seem a little disappointed? You like to see murder? ' Eugene keenly sensed her furtive sigh.

 

    "No, it isn't." Vico shakes his head. "I just want to do some fighting. People will love it."

 

    "Well, if you want to, you can film it later when we find a lead on the people who took Gordon and go to their lair to kill them, as long as the strong man next to you doesn't throw up."

 

    Eugene said to give her a little compensation, after all, she is the lucky star of DC, so it is better not to offend too hard. But for Pete around her, Eugene is enough to see a strong man who is about 1.90 meters shy and effeminate.

 

    "That's good! He'll be all right.... Isn't that right, Pete? !"

 

    With Vico's commanding eyes, the strong man agrees with a look of little satisfaction on his face, and Eugene looks away, feeling sick.

 

    Vico nodded with satisfaction, and she pushed herself between Barbara and Eugene.

 

    "Thanks, but if that happens, I've got another scoop!"

 

    "Just profit from each other, we mercenaries, sometimes need some advertising, TV is a good platform."

 

    If there was ever a future in the world, Eugene wouldn't mind a little business for himself or for Cindra.

 

    Vico's eyes lit up, he took a small book out of his pocket, opened it, and made Eugene laugh and cry as if he wanted to interview her.

 

    "I thought you were a TV reporter," he said.

 

    "The TV station can write down, so, Mr. Deathstroke, can you tell us what your relationship was with the other Deathstroke driving the car? Or are you really not Deathstroke and she is?"

 

    Cindy let out a smirk. Look, everyone thinks they're the real deal. Eugene's more like a killer bat.

 

    Eugene sighed. He just didn't want to kill innocents. He pulled out the knife behind his back and said, "It's better to kill you all..."

 

    "No!!"

 

    "I'm kidding, Batgirl loves you, psycho fans all over town, and jesters probably read your news every day in Arkham." Eugene puts the knife back away again, indiscriminate killing is not his style.

 

    At the mention of Batwoman, Vicko gets another kick, rolling her eyes in a burst of curiosity.

 

    "Oh? Really? B: But why didn't she come to me? If I leave my address and cell phone number, can you give it to her? I'd like to do an interview with her."

 

    'Who are you talking about? Bat or jester?"

 

    "Either way." Vico put on an all-you-can-eat hungry face and licked his lips like the middle-aged men who told dirty jokes in Eugene's old world.

 

    "You're a crazy woman, too. Are there any normal people in this town?" Eugene was angry and funny.

 

    The carriage was full of joy. Only Barbara did not know what face to make. As soon as the subject came up of jesters, she felt the pain in her lower back begin again.
