Even the flapping of a butterfly's wings can cause a storm.

Not to mention the Speed ​​Force, which appeared more than a decade earlier!

However, Depp felt powerless to intervene and could only let things take their course.

After all, his arrival had already disrupted the original structure and direction of the DC universe!

Most of Gotham's notable villains have been turned into their own people, so gaining the Speed ​​Force seems insignificant in comparison.

Depp was in a good mood, so he put his arm around Selena and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Depp saw the annual headline that the Daily Planet had carefully prepared for a week!

He sat down at the tea table and began to read carefully.

Gotham City's Reform and History: Can a City of Madness and Progress Become the Cradle of National Progress?

This article, written by Perry White himself, will take up the largest portion of the newspaper in seven parts and on seven themes over the next week.

In Depp's hand is the first article, "The Secret to the Success of the Depp Group: The Depp Constitution".

This chapter mainly introduces the reforms and governance of the Depp Group during this period, and highly praises them.

Perry White even believes that this may be a corporate governance constitution that the whole world needs to learn from and emulate.

At the end of the article, a preview of the next installment was given... "A Century-Old Company: Wayne Group".

Depp closed the newspaper and took a sip of tea that Selena had personally brewed.

Across from him, Selena, dressed in a white cheongsam with black lines, poured tea for Depp, just like a well-bred young lady.

Selena's hair was styled in a bun at the back of her head, and her figure was made even more perfect by the fitted cheongsam.

The black high heels paired with the cool-toned cheongsam gave Selena a cool and elegant aura.

Her docile demeanor in front of Depp, however, creates a contrasting allure.

Today is Sunday, a day off.

So both Depp and Selena enjoyed this moment of leisure and freedom.

Furthermore, there were no annoying system tasks today, and no one challenged or asked for help, which made Depp very satisfied.

He was half-reclining in the chair, with Selena, dressed in a cheongsam, nestled in his arms like a kitten.

Their eyes slowly closed, and they squinted leisurely again.

At Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne sat on the sofa, eating the breakfast Alfred had prepared for him while reading today's Daily Planet with great interest.

Because he knew that the Daily Planet would be reporting news about Gotham today.

After reading the entire report, Bruce let out a soft snort.

"The first article is about Depp's company, and Wayne Corporation is coming up tomorrow! Is White out of his mind? Or is Wayne Corporation too weak to fight back?"

Alfred gently wiped the blue-and-white porcelain teacup that Depp had given him and said, "Young master, where did you learn these words from? I must say... they're quite rude."

Bruce rolled his eyes and said, "Who else could it be? It's that idiot Depp, of course!"

Placing the blue-and-white porcelain teacup on the coffee table, Alfred said, "Well, if that's what Mr. Depp taught you, then it seems this word isn't so bad after all."

Alfred paused for a moment, then continued, "That's incredibly rude. I suggest you stop talking nonsense in the future. If outsiders hear this, it will really tarnish the Wayne family's reputation."

"Okay, okay, Afu is right, I will definitely be more careful in the future."

Bruce gave a perfunctory answer, then dialed Lucius's number.

"Lucius, how's the new version of the suit I asked you to modify coming along?"

Lucius immediately replied, "There has been a major breakthrough, and I think it can be completed tomorrow!"

“You did a great job,” Bruce praised. “As expected of you, Lucius!”

Bruce's praise pleased Lucius greatly, and he added, "In addition to increasing spinal protection, I also used new materials that greatly improve the comfort of the armor!"

"Perfect, then I'll be waiting to try on the new suit tomorrow."

Bruce hung up the phone, leaned back on the sofa, and thought about the guy Depp had mentioned to him.

Bain,

Bain from Penadoro Prison.

-----

The Republic of San Priscilla, Caribbean Sea.

In a biological laboratory at Penadoro Prison, several researchers were exchanging pleasantries in fluent American English.

"Damn it, this must be the dirtiest prison I've ever seen!"

"That's right, these scum deserve to go to hell!"

"I really don't know what bad luck we three had in our past lives to be assigned to this godforsaken place."

Lying on the hospital bed, Bain looked at the group with a puzzled expression. Fluent in multiple languages, he could understand the English spoken by the lab technicians, so he found it rather strange.

“Didn’t the contract say that this was an experiment organized spontaneously by the prison?” Bain frowned slightly. “But why are these researchers speaking English instead of their native languages?”

Suddenly, one of the researchers noticed that Bain was staring intently at the three of them.

"My God, this child's eyes are really ugly."

The researcher walked up to Bain and covered his face with a white cloth to block his vision.

"Give this kid three times the dosage. The image of him staring at me, looking so filthy and ugly, is still haunting me. It's disgusting!"

"Alright, I'll do as you say. I've never seen anyone survive three times the normal dose of venom. Maybe this kid can give us a surprise!"

"Come on, I don't want to see his ugly face again. I'd rather just die!"

Venom... Venom?

Upon hearing this, Bain immediately broke out in a cold sweat!

He clearly remembered that the contract he signed, although it mentioned that there would be some danger, specified that it was just a routine drug experiment.

However, according to those researchers, what they injected themselves and other test subjects with was some kind of unknown venom.

Did he inject himself with three times the normal dose?

What a joke!

Bain immediately shouted, "I'm done playing! I'm leaving this place! I'm leaving right now!"

He struggled to get up, but he was already tightly bound to the laboratory bed with a tough leather belt.

"Leave? You think we don't want to leave? We want to get out of this damn, fucking filthy prison as soon as possible!"

"Therefore, we need to complete all the experiments as soon as possible."

The researchers approached Bain, cursing and swearing, carrying vials of medicine and syringes.

Then, Bain realized that something had pierced the artery in his arm, and some kind of hot liquid was being injected into his body through the needle.

His consciousness gradually faded, and before he closed his eyes, he saw a bottle that the researcher had carelessly discarded on the ground.

It says...GL8 on it.

Chapter 248 Bain

“Wife of Edmond Dorons, I will now read the verdict on you and your unborn child.”

"If you give birth to a girl, then she will not have to suffer the punishment in place of her father who fled to escape punishment."

"But if you give birth to a boy, then from the moment he is born, he will have to take the punishment in place of his father and be imprisoned forever."

In a courtroom of the Republic of San Priscilla in the Caribbean, a judge wearing a hooded long gown shakes his gavel, his entire face hidden in the shadow of the hood.

After saying this, the judge brought his gavel down, signifying the end of the trial.

Then, applause rang out from the audience in praise of Saint Priscilla's benevolence.

After all, they gave Edmond Dorrance's child a chance, as long as she was a girl.

In the courtroom, a woman in a light purple T-shirt stared blankly at the ceiling, seemingly unprepared to face everything.

Her husband, the Snake King.

She was once the man who fascinated and subjugated her so much.

Even though this man was determined to launch a coup to overthrow the state, this poor woman did not utter a single word of objection.

After all, in her eyes, her man was always so strong and wise.

He can never be wrong if he wants to do something.

Unfortunately, the coup was suppressed at lightning speed within three days, just like a farce, after it actually began.

Her incredibly brave husband, Edmond Dorrance, the "Snake King," abandoned his wife and unborn child without hesitation and fled the country alone.

Therefore, the trial that should have been directed at Edmond Dorrance was instead shifted to this poor woman and her child.

"Why don't you hurry up and thank Your Honor?"

Beside the woman, another man being judged spoke up to offer a reminder.

The woman regained her composure, immediately clasped her hands together, bowed her head, and said, "Thank you, Your Honor, and thank you, the Republic of Saint Priscilla."

As the woman spoke, her eyes remained fixed on the man beside her who was giving her the advice.

This man had a neat, orange-red buzz cut, and his blue eyes were full of the composure and wisdom of a rebel strategist.

The woman remembered her husband saying that this was one of his most trusted subordinates.

But she couldn't remember the man's name anymore, only his nickname... "Zombie".

Months later, the woman gave birth in the prison's infirmary.

As soon as the baby is born, the woman immediately gets up to check on it, completely ignoring the excruciating pain she is in.

When he saw the child's lower body, the woman froze, tears streaming down her face.

Because the baby is a boy.

She took the child into her arms and looked at the fruit of her and her husband's love. A smile of contentment involuntarily appeared on her lips.
