Stab it!
The moment the two electrodes struck David's chest, they released a high-voltage current, enough to instantly extinguish the ferocity of the 300-pound man, causing him to convulse and collapse to the ground in a ball.
The scene Selena had envisioned did not happen; her smug smile froze on her face.
As if nothing had happened, David casually ripped off the barbs on his clothes and strode toward her.
"What kind of monster are you?"
Seeing that David was alright, Selena panicked a little, like a cat that had gotten into trouble trying to run away, but was blocked at the alley entrance.
"What do you want to do?"
With nowhere to go, she backed away, feeling her way along the wall, realizing that David hadn't followed her just to catch a thief.
"Ma'am, you don't want the police to find evidence of your theft, do you?"
David took out his phone and waved it.
……
"Be more specific."
In a hotel apartment where we were temporarily staying.
Selena, caught red-handed, wore a helpless expression.
The person in front of her threatened her with evidence of her theft, demanding that she gather information for him, but what kind of information she needed to gather remained vague.
"I need to know all the major events that have happened in Gotham recently."
Especially those connected to gangs.
David emphasized.
Avery came to Gotham, and judging from what he said before he left, he didn't come to Gotham simply to enjoy himself freely in a city with lax laws.
'There are many numb people waiting to be conquered.' 'I will return and erase everything that makes me uncomfortable.'
This guy is quite ambitious.
A strange glint flashed in his eyes.
Unlike Clark, Avery's first thought after discovering a weakness in his ability was to eliminate that weakness.
He came to Gotham, most likely to conquer a group of people, then take them back to the town, dig up all the meteorites and destroy them, so that nothing in the world could stop him.
However, the world is not as simple as he thought.
"You should know that there are more gangs in Gotham than hotels that provide hot water, right?"
"I don't know where this guy came from. How come he can't even be taken down with a stun gun?" Selena replied, fiddling with the stun gun she had just fired.
Who are some of Gotham's most notorious and largest gang leaders?
David thought about it and realized that given Avery's inflated ego after gaining his abilities, he probably looked down on ordinary small gangs.
"Black Mask, Carmine Falcone the Roman, the Penguin..."
Selena counted on her fingers the names of several notorious gang leaders in Gotham.
"We need information about them, their recent movements, and see if there's anything unusual."
"Are you serious?"
Hearing David's nonchalant words, she paused in her finger-counting, her eyes widening slightly as she looked up: "Do you think they're those small-town thugs who'd wet their pants at the sight of the sheriff?"
It's no exaggeration to say that each of these gang leaders could shake Gotham City with a single stomp of their foot. They were all ruthless, cold-blooded monsters who would devour people without spitting out the bones. Even the children of Gotham would be terrified to tears just by hearing their names.
It's better to offend the mayor than to offend them.
Chapter 55 Heart-Shaped Grass? The Lost Weapon
"Dare to investigate information related to them and spy on changes in their power."
Aren't you afraid that your audacity will create ripples in the dark water and attract sharks?
Selena paused after her warning, then looked angry.
"Besides, aren't you overestimating a thief's abilities?"
She just wanted to steal something, but this person wanted her to touch the tiger's tail. What's the difference between this and throwing a gun at her and asking her to assassinate the president? Maybe the consequences of assassinating the president would be better.
David, now dressed in a sharp black suit, turned his gaze away from the drizzling, bustling street below and smiled at the catwoman sitting on the sofa inside the house.
I believe you can.
You're no ordinary thief.
There are too many well-known mob bosses in Gotham, and having concrete information is undoubtedly faster than going after them one by one.
"Absolutely impossible!"
When faced with a life-threatening situation, the young catwoman firmly refused.
"It's better to be caught by the police and at most go to jail if you attract their attention and get eaten alive."
"How many years in prison?"
David raised an eyebrow, his tone cold and dismissive.
"Don't secretly reduce your sentence."
I bet the stuff you stole adds up to enough to get you a hundred years in prison.
Catwoman's targets include not only precious jewels, but also various valuable artifacts.
"Anyway, it's better than death."
After hearing David's purpose, Selena no longer cared about his threat. She got up and walked out of the room in a huff. Besides, a single photo might not be enough to convict her. She just didn't want to attract the attention of the police.
Even if you go to prison, there is still the possibility of escaping.
The guards in a prison may not be as tight as the security at a private museum.
She steals from museums as if they were her home, and prison won't hold her for long.
"Why don't you name a price?"
"I'm not interested in money."
Selena flatly refused David's offer of money and was about to touch the doorknob to leave.
call out!
A ten-cent coin, like a shotgun pellet, shattered the brass-covered doorknob.
"You...what do you want to do?"
She turned around like a cat with its fur standing on end, suddenly assuming a fighting stance, as if facing a formidable enemy.
"how did you do it?
With your hands?
Serena looked shocked as she saw David retract his hand that had flicked the coin with his finger.
"You're not interested in money, but you probably have a lot of jewelry."
But there are things you've never encountered before.
David smiled mysteriously.
“In our rural area, there is a cave where escaped black slaves hid in the last century. They secretly planted a peculiar herb brought from Africa there, called the heart-shaped herb.”
Heart-shaped grass?
Catwoman was puzzled.
"After eating the heart-shaped grass, a person's physical fitness, strength, and speed will reach the limits of the human body."
"real or fake?"
These absurd words filled her with suspicion.
The most important thing for a thief is to be good at reading people and knowing who is the easiest target and who is the worst to mess with.
She had studied psychology to some extent, but when David said that heart-shaped grass could help people reach their physical limits, he didn't seem to be lying.
And without the heart-shaped grass, how do you explain this guy's power?
"So, I give you the information you want, and you give me the heart-shaped herb?"
Selena was skeptical.
……
Are you going motocross again this time?
On the thirteenth basement level of Wayne Tower, Lucius Fox, who was in charge of the technology research and application department of Wayne Corporation, smiled as he saw the son of his deceased friend arrive.
"By the way, I just saw your headline news."
Bruce Wayne, who had been missing for many years, appeared at a high-level meeting of the Wayne Enterprises.
