American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander.

Chapter 33 My dad is a congressman!
"Is it?"

Falcone responded without even looking up at Jonathan's words.

“Mr. Lei Xiaogu is the same as before. Even if he sits in the alliance, he can know everything about the world.

The ghost has only appeared for one day, but it has already entered his sight. This is really admirable.

But Jonathan, you should know something about the dead, right? "

After he finished speaking, Falcone folded the document recording the cargo information in half and placed it under the ashtray.

Then, he saw various photos of Downton in the second document.

As he examined the various details of the photo, Falcone continued.

“You know, you’ve come into contact with the dead even before I did.

When the ghost went to the battlefield near the bus station for the third time yesterday, wasn't it your car that sent him?

Because of this news, I initially thought that the Ghost was Mr. Lei Xiaogu's secret weapon or favorite disciple, but I didn't expect that the Ghost had nothing to do with the Alliance.

This makes me feel surprised. After all, the abilities of the revenant are too similar to the legend of the Assassin's League!"

Falcone put down the documents and glanced at Jonathan.

Facing Falcone's gaze, Jonathan raised his hand to adjust his glasses, then smiled gently.

"It seems that Mr. Falcone is also very curious about the dead."

"No, it's not curiosity about the dead soul, but curiosity about Mr. Lei Xiaogu!"

Falcone interrupted Jonathan.

“Tell Mr. Lei Xiaogu that I am looking forward to meeting him because I am curious about how he is going to tame such a troublesome beast as the Revenant.

You are a doctor at Arkham Asylum and a professor of psychology at Gotham University. You have personally seen the dead, so you should be able to understand how troublesome he is. "

"indeed."

Jonathan nodded slightly.

“When I first met him, I thought he was just one of the countless crazy people in Gotham.

Whenever night falls, bastards like Downton who disregard life and death always linger among women and drugs, causing one meaningless mess after another.

But he turned out to be much more than I had ever imagined, and I might as well tell you that he might even be more than Mr. Lei Xiaogu had imagined.

Because the moment Mr. Lei Xiaogu received the information about the dead souls, he made the decision to rush to Gotham.

In short, Falcone, please be ready to meet with Mr. Lei Xiaogu at any time."

Having said that, Jonathan closed his suitcase and stood up from the sofa.

After bowing again, he turned and left Falcone's garden. After he left, Falcone sighed softly.

Once an ability like Donton's is clearly demonstrated to the world, the world will respond to him at an astonishing speed.

What's before him is just Lei Xiaogu and the Assassin's League. As for the future...

Falcone couldn't help but shook his head.

Does he really have a chance to get a piece of the pie at Downton?
Just as Falcone was thinking this, a graceful beauty walked out of the corridor leading from the garden to the mansion.

Ignoring Falcone's slightly blaming look, the woman walked straight behind Falcone and gently massaged his shoulders.

Feeling the woman's movements, Falcone frowned.

"I thought I said you should wait for me in the study, Sophia."

"But father, we haven't seen each other for three years. Do you know how much I miss you?"

Sofia acted coquettishly, then bent down and put her face close to Falcone's.

Even so, Falconet still shook his head in dissatisfaction.

"Miss me? That's an excuse, not a reason.

Sophia, do you want me to think you were eavesdropping on my conversation with my guests?

"How could I do that, Dad? I'm not interested in the family business.

You know that my design brand is making a lot of money, especially the wide-leg jumpsuit that I designed myself, which is the one I’m wearing.

My brand is sold out, Dad!"

Sofia responded, then placed her hand on Falconet's forehead and gently massaged his head.

Feeling his daughter's movements, Falcone cooperated and closed his eyes, and Sofia's eyes were instantly fixed on the photo of Downton.

While examining the photo of Downton, Sofia continued to act coquettishly to Falconet.

"Dad, you promised me that if I could do a good job with my clothing brand, you would invest 200 million to make a fashion movie for me.

Now that my brand has started to gain momentum, should you implement the film investment you promised me?"

"invest?"

Hearing this, Falcone raised his eyes and glanced at Sofia.

Facing Falconet's gaze, Sofia stuck out her tongue and smiled playfully. Seeing this, Falconet let out a sigh of helplessness.

"The money I promised you will be transferred to your company's account next week, but before that, I want to ask you, how old are you this year?"

"Twenty-seven, Dad, you can't even remember my age!" Sophia rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction.

“I know how old you are, but I’d rather you not forget that you’re already twenty-seven!

Even though your age is not considered old in the so-called socialite circle, you are not a pure socialite.

Believe me, don't just look at their glamour. In some ways, you are much better than them. Don't demand that you live like them!"

"So, Dad, are you going to introduce a man to me?
Who is your target, him, an Asian?
Although he looks handsome, his dressing style is really tacky. Does he always like to wear suits with holes like this?"

While Sofia was retorting, she naturally pulled over Downton's file and pointed at Downton in the photo and said to Falcone.

Falconet tacitly agreed to Sofia's action of obtaining the information, and then nodded slightly to Sofia.

"Take his information and find a way to meet him. I won't force my daughter to make any so-called sacrifices for the family, but I still hope to see the sparks between you two."

After he finished speaking, Falcone looked at Sofia silently, and Sofia nodded happily.

“Sparks, huh? I’m not good at this, but I’ll try my best.

Because dad, you wouldn't lie to me. What you recommend to me must be the most suitable for me.

But compared to me, Selina should be better at seducing men, right?

If she doesn’t like women, then she actually has the blood to seduce men, so why not let her…”

"Shut up and get out."

Falcone suddenly interrupted Sofia, then raised his hand to ask Sofia to leave the garden.

Seeing this, Sophia shrugged and left with the information about Downton.

Looking at Sofia's back, Falcone squinted his eyes tiredly.

Even if you live a glorious life, few of your children can satisfy you.

However, Falcone thought again and realized that although Sofia was a worry, she was at least much better than Senator Lawrence's daughter.

Look at the news last night. Now all of Gotham knows that the Lawrences have a brainless bitch daughter.

Thinking of this, Falcone let out a long breath and continued to read today's Gotham Gazette.

As for the daughter of Councillor Lawrence whom he just mentioned...

At this moment, Lawrence's house.

Because he was worried about something, Hainuo got up before eight o'clock and walked around the living room holding his mobile phone.

In front of the TV, Congressman Lawrence shook the newspaper helplessly.

"Haino, if you really like walking, then go walk on the treadmill next door instead of walking back and forth in the living room like a robot vacuum cleaner!"

"I know, I know, you're so annoying!"

Hai Nuo ran back to the bedroom with his phone in his hand, anxiously waiting for Donton's call.

Ever since receiving the news that the police had not caught Downton, Hainuo couldn't wait to meet Downton.

She is Downton's little fan girl. She wants to be Downton's criminal assistant. She wants to go along with Downton because she enjoys the thrill of committing a crime so much!

But...why didn't Donton call me?
After waiting until after nine o'clock, Hainuo finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"If you don't call me, then I'll have to call you!"

After talking to himself to encourage himself, Hainuo bravely dialed Donton's number.

At the same time, in the town of Smallwell on the outskirts of the metropolis.

Louise, who was sitting in the coffee shop, was shocked.

"He...he really called!!!"

Louise exclaimed as she showed the phone to her father beside her.

Hearing this, General Ryan nodded calmly.

"Don't worry, he can't hurt you at all!"

"Then I'll take it."

Louise nodded and answered the phone.

"Hello, this is Louise, Downton...Are you really going to come to the Metropolis to see me? But I'm on an interview mission in Smallville, I..."

"Wait, why is it a woman's voice? Louise? Who the fuck are you? Why is Downton's phone in your hand?
That was the phone I gave him, and I picked the number myself!"

Hainuo was so angry at Louise's voice that she simply put the microphone to her lips and yelled at Louise, who was confused on the other end of the phone.

"Louise, right? You're dead. My dad is a Gotham councilman and my mom is the Deputy Secretary of Defense. I'm telling you, you're dead!
You are in Smallville Town now, right? Wait for me, I will kill you with my own hands, with my own hands!!!"

My mentality is okay and I won’t collapse easily. Although I am running naked this week, there is still a glimmer of hope next week!
Please continue to read, let’s work together to let Downton at least have a try!
