Chapter 38: Two shots in the chest and one shot in the head
“You think you see it best?”

Listening to what Downton said, Gordon's tongue rolled in his mouth, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but surge up and down.

He pointed the gun at Donton and asked back.

“Last night, I spent the whole day at the police station collecting case files and sorting out all the cases that might be related to you.

Away from the battlefield between the Dimitrovs and Sabatinos, you first broke a passerby's leg, then robbed a clothing store, and then robbed an Atlanta bank.

Then, you attacked the Iceberg Club, causing chaos that affected hundreds of people and left hundreds of concrete piles in the sea!
Next you broke both of a man's legs, kidnapped the daughter of a Gotham congressman and the Deputy Secretary of Defense, and threatened General Ryan's daughter!
This is not the end, you then beat up a taxi driver and kidnapped the guests of the Kane Hotel!

This was just one day. The next day, as soon as you woke up, you caused another stampede at the Cain Hotel. You also robbed a Porsche Panamera and crashed into a 4S store.

Then you robbed the arms store in Little Italy and looted it!
Then you went to Dimitrov's territory and killed people until I stood before you.

Look at my watch, Downton, it's only half past nine in the fucking morning!

In such a short time, you have committed so many crimes. You alone have caused Gotham's crime rate to increase by three percent in just one and a half days!
Even with this, you still dare to say that you are the most sober person?

How can you say something so shameless..."

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Downton interrupted Gordon in surprise.

“What did you say? My case yesterday only caused Gotham’s crime rate to increase by 3 percent that day?

There are more than a dozen cases, but they only account for 3%. Isn't this too Gotham?"

Downton immediately gave Gordon a thumbs up and showed a look of admiration.

“With a good person like you serving as the deputy sheriff of Gotham, there are hundreds of vicious cases in Gotham every day, and you really play a big role.

And your greatest role is to make me sure that good people can't save Gotham!"

At this point, Downton patted Gordon on the back in amusement.

"Why am I telling you all this? A good person like you can only cause trouble for me.

You, go find your colleagues, eat fried chicken and drink beer with them, and watch me kill Yuri Dimitrov.

You are obviously a goody-goody, but you want others to listen to you. Why don’t you look at the fate of those goody-goody people in history?
If you want others to listen to you, you must rule them.

Even if a ruler is not cruel, he must be feared by everyone. Fear is far more important than respect!
As for a saint like you, haha.

The Virgin Mary deserves to be burned to death!"

After he finished speaking, Downton let go of Gordon and straightened the collar of his police uniform for him.

Looking at the dazed Gordon, Downton continued to speak to him.

“If your father wasn’t a good friend of Falcone, or if your uncle wasn’t the Attorney General of Gotham back then.

Then you wouldn't be able to live to show me your kindness and innocence.

Do you understand, Gordon, in the city of Gotham, only descendants of the powerful like you are qualified to choose to be a good person.

Because the descendants of the powerful and wealthy can still live a good life even if they are kind, but if the lower class people in Gotham are kind, they will be eaten up!

You have always seen Gotham from your perspective, but do you know what Gotham looks like from my perspective? "

Donton gently pushed Gordon's head, making Gordon look into the distance.

At the same time, Downton raised his hand and pointed towards the tallest building in Gotham.

The building was called Wayne Tower, and Downton pointed at the Wayne Tower and said to Gordon.

"I saw a group of lions patrolling their territory indifferently, while countless hyenas gathered around the lions, ruthlessly eating the cattle and sheep on the grassland.

But there is never a shortage of cattle and sheep on this grassland because lions and hyenas set an example like you!
As the son of a lion, you enjoy living as a sheep, and even regard your choice as a sacrifice, and you may even feel moved by yourself occasionally. But think about it, no matter which era, the world will not be led by truth, goodness and beauty.

But truth, goodness and beauty are the hallmarks of every era!

Do you think this is a coincidence?

This is just the common choice of lions in every era!"

Having said that, Downton let go of Gordon and waved to the group of policemen who were listening attentively in the distance.

"Don't just listen, if anyone of you has a cigarette, come over here and light one for me!"

"I have!"

"Smoke me!"

"Don, hit me!"

Three or five policemen quickly stepped out of the crowd and gathered around Donton, holding cigarettes and lighters.

As the smoke rose, Donton patted Gordon's arm gently and smiled.

“I said you can’t change the world, because a cow like you will never put fear in the heart of a lion.

You, just wait and see what I have to offer. I hope I can make the lions of this era put away their sharp claws and fangs, and make the hyenas give up the idea of ​​digging their anuses.

Then the cattle and sheep will at least live better than before.”

Just as Downton said this, there was a little commotion in the laundry in the distance.

After extremely loud explosions and gunshots, Zas, with some black dust on his bald head, came out dragging a strong man.

Seeing Donton surrounded by a large group of police officers, Zas couldn't help but sneer, and then laughed loudly.

"See, this is what happens when you help that stupid cop out.

Even though you've killed a few people and committed some crimes, you're not going to die. But as long as you don't threaten them, they'll only be afraid of people like me who make them feel dangerous!
You think you're a good guy, Downton, you kicked me a couple of times to help Gordon out, right? But GCPD loves to bully good guys.

I've only been gone for a while, and they've already dared to surround you. Don't you feel ashamed to be surrounded by these Smurfs?"

Although he was mocking, Zass still raised his gun towards Gordon and the others, and shook the muzzle of the gun to signal them to stay away.

Just as the police around Downton were fleeing in panic, Downton turned around and looked at the disheveled burly man on the ground through the smoke.

"Is this Yuri Dimitrov?" asked Downton.

"Yes."

Zsasz grinned and nodded.

"I didn't expect that a boss like him would lead the charge. As soon as I entered the underground passage, I saw this guy rushing out screaming."

As he finished speaking, Zas raised his gun and made a shooting gesture to the policemen in the distance.

Looking at the police who didn't react at all, Zas laughed arrogantly and with satisfaction.

As for Downton, he patted Gordon's shoulder for the last time and then came to Dimitrov.

Grabbing Dimitrov's collar with his left hand, Donton punched him hard with his right fist!
Boom!
Boom!
He punched again and again, until his fists began to hurt a little, and Donton finally pulled out his pistol.

Bang bang, bang!

There were exactly three shots, and the gunshots were very rhythmic.

Two shots in the chest and one in the head.
