"?—I have read the old books, the legends and myths. Achilles and his trophy, Hercules and his gift. Spider-Man's control, and Batman's iron fist. Obviously I am not one of them~"

Just when Xiao Feng began to worry about how to get out of this situation, a pleasant cell phone ringtone rang. The beautiful melody of "Something.just.like.this" made him feel relieved.

So he quickly picked up the phone, smiled apologetically at Hannibal, and was ready to pretend that he had something to do no matter what the content of the call was.

Hannibal said nothing, but smiled and handed the file out of the food delivery window, as if she knew everything.

"Hello? What's the matter?" Xiao Feng looked at the "Call from Oswald" displayed on his phone and responded while taking the file.

"Bruce?! Where are you? Didn't I agree to take you to the party tonight? It's already five o'clock, and it's going to start in two hours. What are you doing?" Oswald was so anxious that she even spoke in a soft loli voice.

"This... time passes so quickly? I might be late because I'm doing business outside the city and it will take at least two hours by car." After hearing this, Xiao Feng hurriedly checked the time on his phone and found that it was already five eleven.

"Then you'd better not come. Such an important dinner will not allow anyone to join midway. I heard that you were looking for Rah, and I was going to introduce you to Rah this time... Let's do it next time! Hang up!" Oswald hung up the phone angrily. It was obvious that she was very dissatisfied with Xiao Feng's breaking the appointment.

But Xiao Feng felt that Oswald might have been embarrassed by the breakup between him and Zhasi in the morning, so she wanted to teach him a lesson now so that she could have a return of favor.

After the call was hung up, Xiao Feng's eyes flashed with anger and determination. After all, he had to see Lach no matter what, and how could he be dissuaded by Oswald's words.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Hannibal. I have something urgent to do and have to leave. Thank you for your cooperation." Xiao Feng bowed his head slightly to express his apology.

"Well, goodbye. I look forward to our next meeting~" Hannibal nodded gracefully and stretched out her jade hand and waved twice. But Xiao Feng didn't know why, he always felt that her smile was a little bit naughty?

"Uh...goodbye!" Xiao Feng also waved, but he was secretly thinking that there would not be a next time.

After saying goodbye, Xiao Feng turned around and left. At the moment, his mind was full of Lah, so much so that he didn't notice that a dirty woman was about to attack him!

"Bad man! Rided by thousands of people! Scum!"

A sharp curse suddenly startled Xiao Feng. Just as he looked suspiciously in the direction of the sound, a pool of extremely smelly liquid splashed towards his face at the speed of Jingle Bells in the blink of an eye!

The foul smell instantly filled his nose, and the sticky liquid covered half of Xiao Feng's face, forcing him to quickly lower his head and bend over to prevent the liquid from getting on his suit, while at the same time quickly wiping his face and throwing the liquid onto the ground.

Just when he was about to get furious and wanted to see who had done it, he found out that it was the sloppy female prisoner next to Hannibal. At this moment, she was naked from the waist down, her legs were wet, and her expression was very relaxed, as if she was enjoying the afterglow of the climax.

It was obvious that the female prisoner sprayed the abalone juice on Xiao Feng's face!

This couldn't help but make Xiao Feng feel nauseous and uncomfortable. What was disgusting was that it was the first time he had encountered such a smelly abalone juice. If Xiao Feng didn't have the talent of "Patient Zero", he would have doubted whether he would be infected with the disease.

The reason why he felt uncomfortable was that he couldn't get angry. Hannibal hated rude people the most. If he showed violence and anger next to her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I'm sorry! It's my fault for not taking good care of her! As compensation, come closer and I'll tell you a secret that may help you find the person you're looking for."

Just as Xiao Feng was struggling, Hannibal next to him suddenly came to the edge of the tempered glass, with an even uglier expression than Xiao Feng's. She said something strange while calling Xiao Feng over. It seemed that she really hated rude people.

Xiao Feng was a little confused and didn't understand what her business was to do with him, but he still obediently went over to her.

"If you have time, you can go to my former office in Arkham Asylum. It has been sealed off as a crime scene. But inside are my psychological research files, including the murderer's. Maybe after reading them you will know where she is hiding, how to communicate with her, and what she will do next."

Hanniba's eyes were half-closed, and her beautiful face drooped, looking murderous, as if she would eat the female prisoner next door alive in a minute if it weren't for the tempered glass blocking her view.

"Oh, thank you." Xiao Feng's anger instantly disappeared when he saw Hannibal's expression. It was not because someone was seeking justice for him, nor was it because of this unexpected gain, but because he was afraid that Hannibal would get angry and even make him a snack.

So he thanked her and left in a hurry.

----------------

At 5:30 in the afternoon, in Ge Cheng’s police car.

"Hurry up! Drive faster! I have something urgent to do!" Xiao Feng urged Ge Cheng anxiously. If his body shape was not unsuitable for driving, he would have wanted to transform into Fujiwara Takumi and perform Initial D.

"It's almost there! Why do you smell so bad?" Ge Cheng's huge chest was pressed against the steering wheel, one hand was swinging the plate vigorously, and the other hand was pinching her nose.

Hearing Xiao Feng's urging, she reluctantly let go of the hand that was pinching her nose, held her breath to take out the police light from her side, reached out from the car window and installed it on the roof, while secretly marveling in her heart.

Generally speaking, since Hannibal stopped pretending to be a good person, people who met her would either be confused and dazed like they had amnesia, or simply go crazy. If Ge Cheng hadn't investigated Xiao Feng's background before and knew that he had a psychiatrist named Harlin by his side, he wouldn't have dared to let him go.

Originally, Ge Cheng didn't have much hope. At most, he wanted to get some riddles from Hannibal to guess clues, because Hannibal usually wouldn't say much to people she didn't know well, and even if she offered help, it was often just a joke. As a result, after this trip, Xiao Feng not only got the exact clues, but also returned intact.

This is a miracle! Is Hannibal also a womanizer? And a pedophile?

"Oh, don't just focus on my stink. It's not for nothing. Hannibal even compensated me." Xiao Feng said unhappily, because the smell meant that he had to take a shower and change clothes, otherwise how could he meet Lah.

"There's compensation? Hannibal is so good to you?" Ge Cheng noticed that the ventilation was better when the car was driving faster. The convection wind that came in dispersed the stench in the car, so he stopped pinching his nose and started to concentrate on driving.

As Ge Cheng's sirens sounded, other vehicles on the road also gave way, and the road conditions improved for a while.

"Okay? Hannibal has already named me and said that I will be her first target after she's released from prison! Do you know how much I've paid?" Xiao Feng recalled Hannibal's flashing red eyes with lingering fear, and for a moment he felt cold all over.

"Really? As far as I can remember, Hannibal has never specifically wanted to eat someone. Your situation is too special." Ge Cheng drove the car dangerously, overtaking left and right in the traffic.

"I didn't lie to you, she said the smell of my meat made her drool! She also highly praised the quality of my meat! In order to get clues, I had to tell her my own story!" Xiao Feng almost shouted while holding the car window, looking at the scenery flashing by outside the window.

"Then you didn't tell the truth?" After hearing this, Ge Cheng glanced at Xiao Feng warily, but this glance almost made her rear-end the car, so she quickly threw the plate away and concentrated on driving.

"Nonsense, of course I didn't tell the truth. But based on the psychological profiles of the criminal and me, she deduced that the criminal and I might know each other. She also discovered that the criminal was her former patient, and I was the neighbor the criminal mentioned! So, she already knew that I was Bruce!" Xiao Feng wanted to cry, but he had to accept the reality.

"Oh my god! This is such a tragedy! I'll report this to my superiors and have Chilton raise Hannibal's prison level by two levels!" Ge Cheng started to get scared after hearing this. She didn't want the baby in her belly to be born without...

And even though she already has a child, she is still a virgin. The in vitro fertilization was done using the latest technology of Weien Enterprises - "in vitro test tube", so the layer of flesh membrane was not damaged.

Although she has always had a psychological barrier towards Xiao Feng, she still hopes to have a wonderful night with Xiao Feng.

"Then I'll thank you. I hope Blackgate Prison can really keep that female devil under control." Xiao Feng rolled his eyes. He didn't believe that the Gotham Police Department would care about this matter, nor did he believe that Blackgate Prison could lock up Hannibal.

His strong suspicion had made him decide to prepare a thousand measures as soon as he returned to prevent Hannibal from looking for him after escaping from prison.

------------------

At 7:10 in the evening, at the doorstep of Oswald's house.

Even with Ge Cheng's impressive display of driving skills, Xiao Feng still arrived ten minutes late.

At this moment, he was extremely anxious, so he didn't even go out the main gate. He just took two steps at a time and jumped over the four or five meter high wall.

He rushed into the door of Oswald's house and scared the maid who was serving tea and water inside!

"Mr. Bruce?! What's the matter? Why do you look so anxious?" The maid was surprised and steadied the tray in her hand that was about to fall, and asked puzzledly.

"Has Oswald's banquet started?" Xiao Feng asked hurriedly.

"Yes, the host's banquet has just started ten minutes ago. Those present are all big shots in Gotham, including the patriarch of the Falconet family, the patriarch of the Wayne family, the patriarch of the Kane family, and the mayor of Gotham City." The maid calmed down and began to explain patiently to Xiao Feng.

"Then can I still join the banquet now?" Xiao Feng knew that the patriarch of the Wayne family was Rah. Although Oswald might not be planning to take him to see her, Xiao Feng still did not give up.

"The master said that no one is allowed to disturb the banquet, otherwise the guards can immediately execute the disturber by shooting, which will be considered a great achievement..." The maid shook her head helplessly.

"I don't care. I want to join the banquet. You have to help me think of a solution. I have done Oswald a favor before. She won't do anything to me. Even if she accuses you, I can protect you."

Xiao Feng was already in a state of excitement at this moment, and his complicated feelings towards Lach had made him lose all reason. Not to mention whether he could find Lach again after the banquet, even if there was a way to get in during the banquet, it was not something a little maid could come up with.

But the goddess of fate still stood on Xiao Feng's side. Just when the maid felt embarrassed and was about to reject Xiao Feng, and just when Xiao Feng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"Mr. Bruce, I have a way to help you, but...I have a deal to make. I wonder if I should tell you about it?"

Xiao Feng and the maid turned their heads suddenly when they heard the voice, and saw that the person who spoke was a woman dressed as a chef, and she was looking Xiao Feng up and down furtively.

Chapter 219 My "Nantaimori"

"Ding~ding~clang~clang~"

The rubbing iron sound of knives and forks could be heard continuously on the rectangular high-end dining table.

This is a magnificent dining room, the entire space is as large as two basketball courts. There are countless famous paintings hanging on the walls on both sides of the dining table, some rosewood cabinets are also filled with priceless antiques, and under the dining table is a gorgeous carpet made of fine fur.

Looking at the six-meter-long dining table, delicious dishes from all over the world are placed, such as Chinese national banquet boiled cabbage, Italian tuna sauce beef, American roast turkey, Brazilian pit-braised lamb, French baked snails, etc.

Ever since the Amazon Parliament ruled the world, cultures from all over the world began to gradually blend and converge, and there are no longer any restrictions on cultural invasions and cultural wars. That's why Xiao Feng had heard the term "green hat" which originated in China on a talk show before.

There was a candlestick in the middle of the dining table, and the tablecloth was sprayed with some light perfume to stimulate appetite. Outside the dining room, dozens of maids were waiting for service orders, holding a variety of refreshments and drinks.

At the dining table, there were five women sitting separately.

One of them was Oswald, who was so petite that she had to sit on a high chair. At this moment, she was extraordinary, with her shiny slicked-back hair, the straight black suit, and her indifferent and aloof temperament, which completely made up for the shortcomings of her figure.

She represents the Cobblepot family and is seated first on the left side of the table.

One of them was Lah, who had the most voluptuous figure in the audience. Her beautiful face always had a charming smile on it, and her slim-fitting deep V red evening dress set off her figure to the fullest.

She represents the Wayne family and is located first on the right side of the square table.

If Xiao Feng was present, he would definitely be shocked, because he had never seen Rah with such a noble demeanor.

The remaining three are unfamiliar faces and need a formal introduction.

Gotham Mayor Catherine is the second person on the left side of the table. No one knows how she became Mayor, because she never seemed to please the four major families in Gotham since she took office, and no one supported her before she took office. But she was parachuted into the position of Mayor, and now she can even sit on an equal footing with the four major families.

She had short black Korean-style hair, which was not unusual, but her appearance was stunning, and her calm big eyes were as dazzling as the North Star in the dark night, observing the other four people at the table vaguely.

She had a hot body, wearing a white long-sleeved suit with a lining that covered her round chest, and a red bow tied around her neck. She wore a black hip skirt and seductive black stockings.

Cathy, the head of the Kane family, is the second on the right side of the table. The Kane Group she controls is the second largest company in Gotham City and one of the oldest companies in Gotham City, while the largest company is the Wayne Group.

She has unruly orange waves, her fair skin is as crystal clear as jade under fluorescent lights, and her seductive figure looks extremely eye-catching in the white halterneck backless dress.

If Lach is a precious ruby, then Cathy is a white pearl. The two women have their own merits.

The last person to be introduced seems out of place compared to the others.

Falcone, sitting in the main seat. She is the real underground emperor of Gotham City, the Qin Shi Huang of the underworld, and she single-handedly established the situation of co-governance of the black and white worlds in Gotham. It can be said that as long as you live in Gotham, you can't escape the shadow of the Falcone family.

She had long silver hair, but it was braided into double braids. She had a pretty face, but she wore blue contact lenses and blue lip gloss. She wore a white suit on the outside, a black double-breasted uniform, a hip skirt and black stockings on the inside. She was clearly having a meal, but she brought a white cat with her, petting the cat and feeding it at the same time.

Her strange temperament and strong aura make her look like a weirdo, but at the same time, it is clear that she is the superior person wherever she goes and the focus of everyone's attention.

While the five girls were enjoying their food quietly, Falcone fed the white cat a mouthful of boiled cabbage and spoke calmly: "Rah, I remember you said that someone would appear to completely change Gotham. Where is he?"

The charming little mouth painted with blue lipstick closed gracefully, the watery eyes with blue contact lenses slowly turned towards Lach, the pair of black silk legs were raised in noble steps, and the white jade hands with blue nail polish gently stroked the white cat.

Obviously, each of them is a breathtaking scene when separated, but under her temperament and makeup, they not only look oppressive, but also change from pleasing to the eye to breathtaking.

"It's almost there, it should appear soon~" Lach smiled evilly, and as he spoke he put a piece of French foie gras into his red lips.

"Are you talking about Oswald? I think she has the potential." Falconet smiled and turned her beautiful eyes to Oswald, not knowing whether it was a compliment or simple appreciation.

"I'm a newcomer, how dare I dream of taking on the responsibility alone? If we really want to change Gotham, isn't that the responsibility of Director Catherine?" Oswald answered calmly in a male voice, and at the same time threw the conversation to Catherine.

"No, Falcone has the final say in Gotham." Catherine was calm as water and turned the topic back to Falcone as if she was chatting with her family.

"Oh? Really? I heard there's a scary nursery rhyme that goes like this: 'Beware the Court of Owls, always watching you go! He watches Gotham from the dark, hiding in the walls and attics! He's with you in your home and in your bed! Never mention his name, or his claws will come for you!'"

Falconet chuckled and then sang this eerie nursery rhyme. After hearing the nursery rhyme, the girls present all showed strange expressions, and Catherine's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her reaction was a little slower than the others.

"If the 'owl' court in the nursery rhyme really exists, then what are we?" Cathy laughed out loud, and her smile was like a blooming flower, so gorgeous and beautiful.

But even though she was laughing, she glanced at Catherine inadvertently before she said this, for some reason.

"Yeah, I think it's a joke too. But it wouldn't be bad if it really existed. At least Gotham won't be as lifeless as a lake." Falconet said with a smile as he took out a "Kaine" women's cigar that was as bright and beautiful as a blue crystal from his white suit.

Oswald immediately pressed the small bell beside the table. In less than half a second, the door of the reception room was pushed open, and a maid strode up to Falcone and took out a valuable cigarette lighter that did not smoke or burn.

"Ms. Falconet, please let me help you." The maid bent down respectfully and carefully placed the cigarette lighter in front of her.

"Well, thank you." Falconet thanked him politely, then lowered her head to light the women's cigar, and exhaled a puff of fragrant smoke from her blue cherry lips.

"But if there really is a Court of Owls, what will you do, Aunt Fa?" Oswald asked curiously in the tone of a junior when she saw Falcone finish lighting her cigarette.

"Me? Of course I will retreat behind the scenes. I am the choice of the times and the ruler that Gotham must have. But times have changed, and I know that I will no longer be suitable for Gotham, so my future affairs will all depend on you young people~" Falcone said with a smile.

The white cat in her arms seemed to hate Falconet's smoking, and after a "meow~" it was about to jump away from her body. However, Falconet's hand gently pressed on it, and it couldn't move.

"Aunt Fa, you're joking. Even if the day comes when the new generation replaces the old generation, you will still be the king of Gotham." Oswald said with some concern.

Although Falcone, as a superior, said this to test whether there was any rebellion from the people below, Oswald knew that Falcone had long wanted to retire. Just like she had always liked him and even intended to train him to take over the underworld in Gotham.

Even if she allowed her granddaughter Sophia to bully her, Oswald would rather believe that this was a test, a test of whether she could withstand the pressure. Or it could be said that it was a kind of breeding, letting her granddaughter compete with her, giving her pressure so that she could not relax, and at the same time let herself and Sophia grow in the competition.

"Ha~ I've heard too many compliments~ But I never get tired of compliments from you~ Hahaha~" Falcone smiled elegantly, she seemed to really like Oswald.

Just as the atmosphere among the five women was gradually relaxing, the door of the dining room was slowly opened, and a maid walked in gently pushing a dining cart, followed by three other maids.

Except for Falco who smiled and said nothing, the other five women present were stunned by the food on the dining car!

There was a huge plate on the dining cart, and on the plate lay a naked boy! The boy had a "V" smiley mask on his face, and all kinds of sashimi, fruit slices and other foods were stuck on his body, and a large sushi about 30 centimeters long was rolled up in his lower body!

"Excuse me, this is the chef's new dish, 'Nantaimori', which is inspired by Japan. I hope you like it." The maid blushed and secretly glanced at the five women present, then began to serve the dishes with the other three maids and brought the "Nantaimori" to the table.

The scene lasted for about three minutes, until the maids shyly and hurriedly left the dining room.

At this time, the five girls were silent, and the boy on the plate was also motionless. Among them, Oswald's expression was the most interesting, which clearly showed seven parts of embarrassment, five parts of shame, three parts of shock, and a trace of helplessness.

She recognized the boy on the plate as Xiao Feng at first sight. Not to mention his rare figure, the big thing that had made her aunt suffer from a near-fatal attack and had also "Biu" her mouth full of yogurt was enough to explain everything.

But didn't I not allow this guy to join the table? What the hell is this "Nantaimori"? The people on the field are all big shots, and this is my home. If I serve them "Nantaimori" now, wouldn't it be social demise on the spot!!!

Oswald supported her forehead with one hand on the table, trying to hide her face to ease the embarrassment, at least to avoid seeing the subtle looks from others. She just wanted to wait for someone to ask, "Is this the dish you asked to be served?", then immediately refuse, and push the blame on the chef, and then kill the chef without mercy to prove her innocence!
