Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 291 The Hospitality of Gotham City

After saying that, Su Haoming turned and left without hesitation, leaving Constantine alone, bewildered in the wind.

Staring at the thick wad of banknotes in his hand, Constantine was completely dumbfounded and stood there stunned for a long time.

Once he came to his senses, he became wary and quickly scanned his surroundings. Only after confirming that no one had seen him did he feel at ease stuffing the wad of banknotes into his trench coat.

It's a real shame that we couldn't recruit any teammates who could be sold.

But on the bright side, at least we got a breakup fee for free, right?

Moreover, judging from this guy's style of doing things, he doesn't seem like a low-key person. I estimate that it won't be long before we hear his name in Gotham City!
Thinking of this, Constantine grinned, his eyes shining, and he considered that perhaps when he needed money in the future, he could go and visit this old friend again...

……

……

Meanwhile, Su Haoming was unaware that this guy had already considered him a friend.

Thinking he had escaped Constantine, he decided to explore Gotham City.

Unfortunately, this place is really not a suitable city for tourism, especially for unfamiliar faces like him, which will only attract waves of enthusiastic locals.

In just three blocks, Su Haoming was robbed twice and burgled four times!

Of course, calling it robbery is a bit of an exaggeration. In fact, the person was simply short of money and had no money for food, so he stopped Su Haoming on the street and asked a kind person for some spare change.

Su Haoming is naturally a kind-hearted person.

Feeling pity, he generously treated them to a beating and even called an ambulance, hoping to generate some revenue for Gotham City Central Hospital.

Unexpectedly, the guys who fell to the ground were also grateful people.

Seeing that Su Haoming had called an ambulance, they hurriedly jumped up from the ground, their faces covered in blood, and declared righteously that they did not need help calling an ambulance.

Seeing this remarkable medical miracle, Su Haoming was extremely amazed.

But he still shook his head solemnly, believing that if you are injured, you should go to the hospital and never try to tough it out.

So, out of kindness, he gave them another beating, forcibly keeping them there.

Only after the ambulance arrived, lifted them onto stretchers, and presented them with an exorbitant bill amidst their despairing gazes, did Su Haoming nod contentedly and quietly leave, having done a good deed anonymously.

In contrast, the four thieves who tried to steal money from him were not so lucky.

Su Haoming figured they were just shy and didn't dare to speak, so he kindly greeted them in the same way.

However, his method was too clumsy, and he accidentally took several wallets that did not belong to him.

Su Haoming was also socially awkward. He felt that his actions might be too enthusiastic and was quite embarrassed. So, before the other person noticed, he quickly left the street.

As Su Haoming's journey progressed, his wallet grew fatter and fatter, and his mood improved as well.

Indeed, Gotham City is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery, with simple and honest folks who are also very hospitable, making it a perfect place for a kind-hearted person like him.

If it weren't for his cousin in the Tang Ghost World, he would have wanted to settle down in this city!
Unfortunately, this didn't last long. As Su Haoming got closer to the center of Gotham City, the number of enthusiastic citizens who liked to greet strangers gradually decreased.

Su Haoming became curious, so he randomly stopped a passerby who looked fierce but was actually kind-hearted and asked him a question.

It turned out that the place he had just passed through was actually the East Side of Uptown Island in Gotham City, which is the most chaotic and underdeveloped area in the entire Gotham City.

And the alleyway he descended into after passing through the portal had a name that sent a chill down his spine—

Crime Alley!
Hearing this name alone, many people might not recognize it.

But if you add a hellish joke that Su Haoming heard in his previous life, then it's a different story—

Q: What goes in with six legs and comes out with two legs?

A: The Wayne family.

That's right, this Crime Alley is the place where Batman's parents were shot and killed!
The reason why Lin Yu's portal connects to this place is probably because of this.

Having learned this, Su Haoming finally understood why the residents of that area were so hospitable.

Now, he has crossed the North Fjord and arrived in the Audisburg district in the northern part of the Upper City.

This place is extraordinary; the famous Gotham Enterprises stands here, along with Star Labs, Stag Industries, and many other large corporations.

The residents of Gotham are mostly highly educated individuals and upper-class elites, or at the very least, white-collar workers, so the security situation is naturally a bit better.

Although not many things are good...

Su Haoming mentally complained, then let go of the helpful passerby and turned back to the street.

Just then, a message popped up in the chat group.

[Yun Ye: @Su Haoming, Old Su!]

[Yun Ye: You've been there for a while now.]

[Yun Ye: How's the intelligence gathering going?]

Su Haoming stopped and smiled slightly, saying, "Of course, it's a piece of cake!"

[Su Haoming: To be honest, I've already confirmed it.]

[Su Haoming: This world is the DC Universe right next to Marvel!]

【Group members: …】

【Su Haoming: ……】

[Su Haoming: What do you mean?]

[Su Haoming: Give me some reaction!] Just as Su Haoming was completely dumbfounded, Yun Ye sent a mocking emoji.

[Yun Ye: You didn't check the chat history, did you?]

[Yun Ye: As Brother Lin just said, this world is closest to the Marvel Universe, and its rules are quite similar; it's most likely the DC Universe!]

"..."

Su Haoming smirked and scrolled up the chat history, where he indeed saw Lin Yu's speculation in the group.

[Su Haoming: So you guys already guessed it...]

[Su Haoming: @Yun Ye, then why are you even asking?!]

[Yun Ye: I asked about the location you traveled to, not this world.]

[Su Haoming: ...Fine!]

[Su Haoming: The place I traveled to is Gotham City, a famous DC landmark, and the portal connects to the crime alley where Batman's parents were shot.]

After the message was sent, the chat group fell into an eerie silence.

The next second—

[Yun Ye: Gotham City?!]

[Fan Xian: Crime Alley?!]

[Yun Ye: What's the timing?]

[Yun Ye: Is the Joker still alive?]

[He Jingfeng: You only know one clown, huh?]

[Lin Lie: Ignore him, he's just a typical bystander!]

[Fan Xian: Hey, you know what, he really is a true 'cloud' viewer!]

[Yun Ye: …]

Looking at the chat group that had suddenly exploded with activity, Su Haoming was speechless and couldn't help but say, "You don't react when you hear about the DC Universe, but you start getting all worked up when you hear about Gotham City. I think you're all just casual viewers!"

Su Haoming ignored them, so he tagged Lin Yu and asked what to do next.

[Su Haoming: The portal connects to Crime Alley, which isn't a long-term solution. I think the best approach is to establish a permanent base in this world and move the portal there.]

[Su Haoming: @Lin Yu, what do you think, bro?]

Seeing that Su Haoming was getting down to business, the group members quieted down.

Lin Yu pondered for a moment and replied, "A stronghold is indeed necessary, but the current teleportation portal is not stable enough. It would be best to wait until I have completely anchored to this world before making any decisions."

【Su Haoming: Good! 】

[Su Haoming: So what should I do next?]

Lin Yu: Do whatever you want.

[Lin Yu: As long as you still exist in that world, you will be my strongest anchor!]

Su Haoming understood immediately and said, "Just like connecting to the world of other group members?"

Lin Yu said, "That's right!"

Su Haoming grinned: "Then I understand!"

After finishing their business, the group members popped up again, constantly tagging Su Haoming.

Helpless, Su Haoming could only answer their questions one by one, telling them everything he knew.

[Lin Lie: 2013...?]

[Lin Lie: If it's the DC Extended Universe, this timeline coincides with the plot of *Man of Steel*, but from what you're saying, it seems Superman has already appeared?]

【Su Haoming: That’s right!】

[Bai Zemin: Then it's not a cinematic universe!]

[Fan Xian: Definitely not. This world even has scumbag Kang, how could it be a cinematic universe?]

[Su Haoming: However, I made some inquiries, and it turns out that General Zod did indeed lead a fleet to Earth at the end of the year before last. The subsequent plot is also very similar to that of Man of Steel, so there should be some elements of the cinematic universe.]

[Lin Lie: How about we try to make contact with Batman first?]

[Lin Yu: If there really is a movie element involved, he should already be preparing for the battle against Superman!]

[Su Haoming: That makes sense!]

After chatting for a while, Su Haoming closed the chat group and decided to find a place to stay in Gotham City first.

So he first went to the shopping street, used the cash he had to buy a top-of-the-line computer, and then installed the artificial intelligence program he carried with him.

About half an hour later, the identity of the wealthy Chinese man from Los Angeles was revealed.

Using this identity, Su Haoming successfully checked into a five-star hotel in Midtown and, over the next two days, infiltrated Gotham City's high society as an outsider investor.

Su Haoming naturally had no idea how to present himself as a genuine tycoon.

Fortunately, He Jingfeng from next door was very knowledgeable and provided remote guidance in the chat group.

With his help, Su Haoming has initially established a firm foothold and has not revealed any obvious flaws.
