everything's ready.

Now we just wait for the Gotham Police Department to send Edward and Barbara over.

As for Director Barnes' proposal to come with Gordon and the others, Levi naturally knew that.

But he didn't care. The new police chief, like Gordon, had suspicions without evidence.

However, in Levi's heart, Director Barnes is also a default hero template carrier.

…

For the next day, the entire Gotham City was very calm, and no unexpected incidents occurred.

Of course, there has also been no progress in the search for Jerome's bomb.

Gotham City is immersed in an atmosphere of calm and fear.

In the Gotham Police Department, as time goes by, Chief Barnes becomes more and more irritable.

But his irritability is just incompetent rage and does not help at all.

Now various companies, enterprises, and forces in Gotham have received notices from the police station and began to use their own personnel to investigate.

Nowadays, the police department simply does not have enough police officers. The only people they can rely on are themselves.

Even the gangsters in Gotham's underground world began to use their underlings to investigate on their own territory.

Although they, like Jerome, are not in the same camp as the Gotham Police Department, Jerome is from the Chaos camp, and he will not give any special treatment to these gangsters!

However, it is obvious that even if the police saw the special bomb made by Ian, they might not be able to identify it, let alone ordinary people!

…

Just like that, one night passed.

There are still no clues about the bomb Jerome planted.

As time continued to move forward bit by bit, the entire Gotham City's heart was lifted. Even the news that the Riddler had been arrested published in newspapers and news did not attract too many people's attention.

No one knows where the explosion will occur.

Even some Gotham citizens with weak psychological endurance gradually walked out of their own buildings, trying to escape the explosion that might happen at any time.

In this atmosphere, time quickly came to the time when Jerome was live broadcast on Gotham TV yesterday.

Everyone's heart was in their throats, praying that the explosion would not happen around them.

No, it should be everyone except those in the Gotham media industry.

The media reporters in Gotham are all ready to go, waiting to rush to the scene as soon as the explosion occurs to report the news!

Yesterday, Jerome's live broadcast on Gotham TV raised a lot of ratings for Gotham TV, making them very jealous.

For this industry, ratings represent money and status!

As for their behavior, are they eating steamed buns with human blood, or are they harmful to their conscience...

Who cares?

Without conscience, you can earn more.

If the news materials are gone, the money will really be gone! You might even lose your job!

"boom!"

There was an explosion in the industrial area.

Except for the place where the explosion occurred, all other Gotham citizens breathed a sigh of relief.

What follows is their sympathy for those unfortunate souls and their condemnation of Jerome.

It's very ironic. They were obviously praying that the explosion would not happen around them.

The media reporters immediately started their cars and rushed towards the industrial area where the explosion occurred! ωωw..net

They need to collect news materials as soon as possible!

In addition to these media reporters, there were also officers from the Gotham Police Department who rushed to the industrial area at the same time.

Even Director Barnes rushed to the scene of the explosion himself.

…

The explosion occurred at a chemical plant in an industrial area.

This chemical plant is owned by Wayne Group.

When media reporters and officers from the Gotham Police Department arrived, smoke billowed from the scene and there was a lot of wailing.

The explosion not only destroyed the chemical plant, but also caused the chemical reagents in the chemical plant to leak.

Explosions and chemical leaks caused huge casualties.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Director Barnes frowned.

Because Jerome has always shown an attitude towards the Wayne family, the companies under the Wayne Group are naturally the focus of the investigation.

However, because the scale of Wayne Group is so large, the police department does not have enough police officers.

So yesterday he personally called the Wayne Group headquarters and asked them to send people to investigate his companies.

Naturally, this chemical factory is also on the investigation list.

But why did an explosion happen here? Didn't the other party investigate? Or didn't they investigate carefully?

Although Director Barnes was dissatisfied, he also knew that now was not the time to hold the other party accountable.

Chief Barnes looked at the mess at the scene and immediately began to direct his police officers to carry out rescue operations.

While the officers of the Gotham Police Department were rescuing, the media reporters who rushed to the scene were not idle and started live broadcasting one after another. Even if there were no live broadcasts, the long guns and short cannons in their hands also began to collect at the scene to attract people.

Eyeball news material.

Director Barnes is not very interested in these media reporters, but now he can no longer care about these reporters.

The casualties caused by the chemical plant explosion were far greater than he imagined, and the leaked chemical reagents were very likely to spread to other places along the underground water system!

As long as they don't cause trouble, thank God!

Barnes was a little confused. He had made it very clear to Wayne Group on the phone yesterday that the explosion could occur anywhere in Gotham City tomorrow. Even after careful investigation, those dangerous locations were temporarily closed.

Reduce the number of personnel.

The worst possible thing is to take a day off!

However, these casualties at the chemical plant site do not look like they are on vacation, they seem to be still producing at full capacity...

…

And Li Wei naturally watched the whole process.

Regarding Barnes' doubts, Levi could only say that he has not yet fully integrated into Gotham.

Everything that happens in the city of Gotham can be speculated with the greatest malice.

The idea that Barnes guessed yesterday was actually correct, and his strategy of notifying Wayne Group to investigate its companies was also correct.

Barnes does know a lot about explosions and crime, but he doesn't understand Gotham.

After receiving a call from Barnes yesterday, Wayne Group executives naturally notified all their companies.

Naturally, the chemical factory also arranged for people to conduct inspections.

However, the employees responsible for the investigation were taking chances and believed that the other party would not install the bomb in the chemical plant. If they did not have time to investigate carefully, they might as well go to bed.

So after just walking around the chemical plant, I ended up hastily.

If it were just like this, that would be it. If the management of Wayne Group considered possible safety accidents and gave these companies a day off in advance, it would not cause so many casualties.

After receiving "investigation results" reports from many of its companies, Wayne Group's senior management, after discussion, gave the order to continue production as usual.

For them, the people under their command have already checked it out. Although they cannot completely guarantee that there will be no problems, at least the probability of problems will be smaller.

And it has been carefully calculated by an actuary.

If all these companies were to suspend work and take holidays, the loss of profits would be huge, even greater than the loss caused by an explosion in one of the companies.

And even if an explosion does occur, it is only an explosion in one of its companies. Then the losses caused by the explosion of this company, including casualties, and the profits created by other companies that are still in full production on this day, combined, are enough to make up for these losses.

!

On the one hand, losses are bound to occur, and on the other hand, losses may occur, but they can be made up for in other ways.

Capital never sleeps.

Human life, like other property, can be represented by a price.

Wayne Group has made their choice.

…

As for if an explosion does occur, Wayne Group has naturally made corresponding plans long ago.

After the explosion, the Wayne Group's board of directors quickly sent an executive from the public relations department to the chemical plant site.

Not only was he at the chemical plant site, he also actively led people to carry out rescue operations.

The executive also made a commitment to the injured and injured employees and their families under the cameras of media reporters.
