Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 292 They've kidnapped me?

On the third night in the DC Universe, Su Haoming was invited by the mayor to attend a charity dinner held by Gotham City Charitable Hospital.

It is said that the dinner party invited many of Gotham City's elite, and even Bruce Wayne, who has been out of the public eye for a long time, will participate in the final charity auction.

With such a classic storyline and the renowned Bruce Wayne, how could Su Haoming possibly refuse?

So he readily agreed, even hiring a group of bodyguards and henchmen, and renting three luxury cars. The group headed to the banquet venue in a grand procession.

But as they were passing a certain street, the driver suddenly turned the steering wheel and, without saying a word, drove the black luxury car into a dark alley next to it.

Not only that, the two luxury cars following behind also turned into this alley.

It seems they had conspired together to abduct Su Haoming.

Upon seeing this, Su Haoming raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming extremely strange.

Just as he was about to ask a question, the bodyguard he had temporarily hired suddenly raised his right hand and pressed the cold, metallic object in his hand against his ribs.

Su Haoming was slightly taken aback and looked at the bodyguard beside him in surprise.

"Hunter?"

"Excuse me, Mr. Su!"

The bodyguard named Hunter, holding a pistol, smiled and said to him, "We've received word that someone wants to talk to you. Please cooperate and don't make things difficult for me."

Su Haoming: “…”

Good grief, they've tried to kidnap me, haven't they?

Su Haoming was speechless. With a slight movement of his fingers, tiny streams of air swirled around his fingertips.

But then he thought about it again and realized that this kind of thing was quite rare.

If he were to simply turn the tables and kill Hunter and the others, how would he find any more fun... how would he deal with the mastermind behind it all?

With this in mind, Su Haoming decisively dispersed the airflow at his fingertips, deciding to cooperate with them first, and then consider how to deal with them after meeting the person behind the scenes.

"Hunter."

Su Haoming frowned deeply, putting on a grim expression, and looked at Hunter beside him, saying in a deep voice, "I know you're just following orders, so I won't make things difficult for you."

"But considering that we still have an employer-employee relationship, could you tell me who exactly wants to meet with me?"

"You don't need to reveal their names. Just give me a clue, and I won't make things difficult for you. I'll even give you a generous reward that will ensure you a comfortable life. How about it?"

Hunter was somewhat surprised to hear Su Haoming's words. He thought this guy was just an ordinary spoiled brat, but he didn't expect him to remain calm in the face of a gun.

This made him look at him in a new light!
Unfortunately, what happened today is far more serious than this Asian tycoon imagined.

If he really reveals the information about the person behind the scenes, he might get paid but not live to enjoy it!

Thinking of this, Hunter felt a pang of regret, but he still smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Su, I have no right to disclose any information to you in this matter, but as long as you cooperate, I don't think your life will be in danger!"

Su Haoming answered without hesitation: "Five million!"

Hunter was slightly taken aback, then said helplessly, "Mr. Su, this isn't about money!"

Su Haoming raised the stake again, saying, "Ten million!"

"..."

Hunter's smile froze, and he looked at Su Haoming with a slight hesitation.

"Isn't it enough?"

Su Haoming raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Then twenty million it is!"

Upon hearing this, not only Hunter but even the driver in the driver's seat couldn't help but cast a glance at him.

Feeling the gaze reflected in the rearview mirror, Su Haoming glanced at him and smiled, "Don't worry, you'll get a share too!"

Upon hearing this, the driver couldn't help but swallow hard, but after struggling for a moment, he resisted the temptation and cast a stern look at Hunter through the rearview mirror.

Hunter sighed and shook his head with great difficulty in refusing.

But the next second, Su Haoming threw out an even bigger number.

"Fifty million!"

"..."

Hunter and the driver both fell silent.

The former gritted his teeth, about to speak, when he noticed the latter winking at him through the rearview mirror, seemingly thinking the price could be raised further.

But Su Haoming, seeing their expressions, seemed to have misunderstood them and sighed with disappointment.

"Fifty million isn't enough. It seems it really isn't a matter of money."

Hunter and the driver: "..."

No, it's all about money!

Su Haoming shook his head and said, "Forget it, I know you are all people with professional ethics, and you would never violate your principles for a little money."

As he spoke, he reassured her, "Don't worry, I'm a man of principle, and I will absolutely support your cause!"

Do I need your support?

Hunter gritted his teeth, looking at Su Haoming with a hint of disappointment.

This guy is a businessman, how could he give up so easily?

Don't be discouraged!

If you add a little more money, maybe they'll be tempted?
Hunter and the driver looked at Su Haoming with undisguised anticipation, only to find that the guy actually stopped talking, leaned back in his seat, and closed his eyes to rest.

do not!

Fifty million is not a small amount!
They could work their whole lives and still not save up this much money!

Hunter was filled with regret and couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror, glaring at the driver in the driver's seat.

The driver was also helpless. According to the information they had gathered, this guy was worth at least several billion, but who knew he wouldn't budge on the price after asking for fifty million...

Stingy! Lavish!
You deserve to be targeted!
The driver and Hunter cursed inwardly, but dared not voice their thoughts.

The reason is simple: we are already very close to our final destination. If we were to reveal our intention to release the people for money at this time, not only would the risk be greatly increased, but there is also the possibility of being betrayed by Su Haoming.

And so, an eerie silence fell over the car.

Both Hunter and the driver wore complex expressions. Although the former was still holding a pistol, his eyes seemed somewhat vacant, as if he was still imagining what it would be like to receive the fifty million dollar sum. Compared to the two men who were filled with anxiety, Su Haoming, who had been kidnapped, appeared completely relaxed.

He even had time to open the chat group and tell his current predicament as a joke, which made the group members burst into laughter, and the whole chat group was filled with a joyful atmosphere...

Not long after, three black luxury cars turned into a dark alley on the next street.

Su Haoming noticed the car slowing down and his spirits lifted. He immediately opened his eyes and looked with great interest at the dark, damp, and long alleyway outside the car window.

At the end of the alley stood five figures.

The two leading men were dressed in black suits and wore full-coverage white masks, clearly the kind of classic Gotham City villains with dual identities who had to hide their faces.

Behind the two men were three men in black who were clearly thugs.

They wore tight-fitting black combat suits, their bodies covered with special alloy armor except for the joints, giving them an icy, unapproachable aura like icebergs.

"So now the question is..."

"who are they?"

Su Haoming stared blankly at the two men in white masks.

Gotham City is already teeming with lunatics, and villains are practically nonexistent. In addition, big-name villains such as the Joker, the Penguin, and the Riddler have taken over the niche of Batman movies, resulting in many famous villains failing to appear on the big screen.

With Su Haoming's limited knowledge of comics, he indeed couldn't identify the two people.

Just then, all three luxury cars stopped, and the driver and Hunter opened the car doors and walked up to the two of them.

The bodyguards in the other two luxury cars also got out and respectfully waited beside the two men in white masks.

Seeing this, Su Haoming's face darkened again.

It turns out that all the bodyguards he hired were actors; not a single one was a normal passerby!

Judging from this, the other side really is after him!

Su Haoming was surprised, and immediately rolled down the car window, asking politely:

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"What do you want from me?"

"Is there some business to discuss?"

Business?

The two men in white masks chuckled upon hearing this.

The man on the left shook his head, smiled, and said, "You're very humorous. I like humorous people."

"is it?"

Su Haoming blinked and said, "Since I'm to your liking, could you tell me first, who are you people?"

The white-masked man on the left thought for a moment and said regretfully, "I would also like to tell you, but unfortunately, now is not the time for our official comeback, and you are not qualified to know our identities!"

"Alright, there's no need to waste words with him."

The white-masked man on the right spoke calmly, then glanced at the driver who had just gotten out of the car and said:

"Is it him?"

"That's right!"

The driver bowed slightly and said respectfully, "These wealthy Asian immigrants have no roots; they just rely on their money. Even if they disappear completely tonight, no one will care!"

"very good!"

The white-masked man nodded in satisfaction: "He's the one!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a man in black behind him immediately stepped forward and walked towards the open car door.

……

Meanwhile, above everyone's heads, a dark figure stood on the railing at the edge of the rooftop, its dark eyes peering coldly down through the triangular hole in its mask.

The bright moonlight hung high in the sky behind him, casting a long shadow that seemed to envelop the entire alley.

"It's actually claws..."

"And there are three more!"

The figure, resembling a humanoid bat, frowned deeply, its gaze fixed on the three men in black below with a slightly grave expression.

He never expected that his routine tour of Gotham City before attending the banquet would lead to him running into an old friend from many years ago in such a place!
Moreover, the Asian youth they kidnapped was not an unfamiliar face.

If he remembered correctly, this guy was an Asian investor who had recently arrived in Gotham City with a large sum of money.

It is said that he really wanted to cooperate with Wayne Group, but after investigating, he found that their identity was a mystery and the source of their funds was quite strange, so he has been avoiding them.

However, it seems that he may have been overthinking it.

Su Haoming himself should be fine...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the Asian youth in the luxury car, and shook his head, saying:

"You're lucky!"

After saying that, he leaped without hesitation, his cloak billowing in the gale like black bat wings, carrying him crashing down into the alley below.

"boom!"

A deafening bang echoed through the alley like a tidal wave.

Such a grand spectacle was clearly not the kind of commotion one should make when making an entrance.

Batman, who had just landed on the ground, suddenly looked up, staring in astonishment in the direction from which the sound came.

Beside the black luxury car, a surge of air exploded like a cannonball, creating a powerful shockwave visible to the naked eye.

Wherever it passed, the metal doors twisted and tore open, and the man in black outside was as if he had been hit head-on by a hundred-ton truck. His body shot backward like an arrow and crashed hard into the wall of the alley!

"Oh!"

Another loud bang, and the damp wall instantly caved in, with countless cracks spreading wildly like a spider web.

At the very center of the crack, the black-clad man's entire back was embedded in the wall behind him, leaving only his head and limbs twisted and dangling helplessly in the howling wind...
