Time continues to flow and will not stand still due to anyone's wishes.

This sudden explosion caused Gotham, which had gradually stabilized, to become turbulent again.

The casualties caused by this explosion were not small.

However, apart from the beginning, the public's attention is still focused on those injured and injured due to the explosion.

However, with the efforts of the Wayne Group's public relations department and Galavan in the later period, most people's attention has gradually turned to such another matter.

That's about Galavan's charity gala.

There is no doubt that the public relations department of Wayne Group also knows that the so-called charity gala is mostly a show by the billionaire.

However, they still made "assist" for it.

Since the other party is willing to attract public attention and divert public opinion at this opportunity.

At the same time, it can also comfort the families of those who were injured or killed in the explosion...

Why wouldn't they do it?

As for why the other party is putting on a show?

Neither Wayne Group's PR department nor the board of directors care.

In their view, rather than saying that Wayne Group belongs to Gotham City, it is better to say that Gotham City belongs to Wayne Group.

Is it possible that there are other people or other companies in Gotham City that can surpass Wayne Group in influence?

This is obviously impossible!

…

Therefore, with the tacit understanding of both parties, the public's attention began to focus on Galavan's upcoming charity gala.

The warm-up effect of this charity gala far exceeded Galavan's previous expectations, greatly increasing Galavan's confidence in running for mayor.

He was very lucky and got another piece of shit luck.

However, compared to other people in Gotham City, Levi did not pay much attention to the charity gala.

He could already foresee Galavan's final fate.

Moreover, he has more important things to be busy with right now.

Because just the day after the explosion, the Gotham Police Department escorted Barbara and Edward to Arkham Asylum!

In addition to old acquaintances Gordon and Harvey, the new police chief, Barnes, also accompanied the escort team to Arkham Asylum.

"Dean Levi, it's nice to meet you. I am the new chief of the Gotham Police Department. You can call me Barnes." Barnes got off the bus, with a smile on his face, and took the initiative to extend his hand to Levi.

Gordon and Harvey looked at the smile on Director Barnes's face at this time, and both of them could not hide their surprised expressions.

The usually stern and unsmiling director actually took the initiative to say hello to Levi with a smile?

If they had not already confirmed that Director Barnes was extremely upright, they would probably both think that there was some shady deal between Barnes and Levi!

But Li Wei was not particularly surprised by this.

This Chief Barnes is just upright and not heartless. He can be selected as the candidate to take over as the Gotham Police Chief. How could he offend people inexplicably?

Levi already had some guesses as to the purpose of Director Barnes coming to Arkham Asylum.

Mostly it was caused by the fact that I had told Gordon where Edward was hiding.

If he were in Barnes's position, he would do the same thing.

Although Levi knew it in his heart, on the surface he still pretended to be unaware and stretched out his hand to shake Director Barnes's.

"Director Barnes, it's a pleasure to meet you. Thanks to you coming to Gotham, Gotham City was able to restore calm so quickly. Otherwise, it would have been really scary all day long. Now that you are here, the sky will be clear..."

Li Wei's words of praise were unstinting.

Gordon and Harvey, who were following Ben, couldn't help but have weird looks on their faces when they heard Levi's extremely hypocritical words.

Dean Li Wei, are you lying?

Let's not talk about whether the chaotic situation in Gotham a while ago has anything to do with you. Just the word "fear" cannot be related to you, right?

Maybe others don't know, but Gordon and Harvey, as old acquaintances, know.

Even during the recent chaos in Gotham, when even the Gotham Police Department was unable to protect itself, Levi's Arkham Asylum was not affected in any way. None of the rioters dared to attack Arkham Asylum...

What Gordon and Harvey didn't expect was that the iron-faced Director Barnes in their eyes also had a smile on his face after hearing Levi's extremely hypocritical words.

"Dean Li Wei, thank you very much. I just did what I should do and my responsibilities are. I will not let any bad person go, and I will not wrong any good person..."

It's hard to tell whether there was any threat in Barnes's words, but Levi didn't care.

Director Barnes most likely has his suspicious eyes on himself.

but……

There are many people who doubt me, who do you think they are?

Just like what he said to Gordon before.

If you have evidence, come and arrest me!

Besides, those things were not done by me, I was just an ordinary director of the lunatic asylum.

What do terrorists have to do with me?

Levi was too lazy to continue making detours with Barnes.

He turned his attention to the bus parked in the courtyard of Arkham Asylum.

"Director Barnes, is the patient to be transferred this time in the car?"

"Well, yes, there are two patients transferred here, and one of them is the Riddler who committed the crime yesterday." Seeing that Levi wanted to change the subject, Barnes continued with some reluctance.

"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Dean Levi for the clues you provided to Detective Gordon yesterday. Otherwise, we would have had to spend a lot of effort to catch the Riddler."

Levi naturally understood the implication of Barnes' words. It was obvious that Barnes was suspicious of him.

but……

"Director Barnes, it's nothing. I just did what a good citizen of Gotham should do." Levi smiled. "Besides, I also guessed. I didn't expect the Riddler to actually be hiding there."

.”

"Director Barnes, can we proceed with the handover procedure now? I think there was a bombing attack in Gotham City yesterday. Your Gotham Police Department should be very busy. I can't delay you for too long here."

Director Barnes was speechless by Levi's answer.

Guess?

How did you guess so accurately?

Moreover, he accurately guessed the hiding place of the other party without any bias?

But as for Levi's answer, as long as Levi insists that it is a guess, there is nothing that Barnes can do.

Simply speaking, Barnes came to Arkham Asylum this time just to meet Dean Levi, and had no other purpose, so he did not continue to pester him.

"Dean Levi, you are right. There is still a lot of work to be done in the police station. We really cannot stay here for too long. Then let's start the handover procedures." Barnes still said with a smile.

It's just that combined with his sinewy face and burly body, his smile doesn't really look friendly.

But no one present would care about these minor problems.

…

The subsequent handover process went very smoothly without any interruptions.

After Director Barnes personally handed over the files about Edward and Barbara to Levi.

It is different from Gordon who left a few harsh words before.

Director Barnes didn't say anything harsh, he just said with a smile to Levi.

"Dean Li Wei, the police station is still very busy. I will come to visit you again when I have more time."

Levi also smiled and nodded.

"Okay, no problem, Chief Barnes. If you have any mental or psychological needs, you can also come to me. Chief Gordon knows that we are professionals."

Gordon, who has been standing aside silently:...

Whenever this matter was mentioned, Gordon looked constipated.

major?

Really professional.

After all, he witnessed with his own eyes that in just a few days, Jonathan's spirit returned to normal, and he was let go by Levi.

After letting go, he has not been arrested so far...

And Jerome also came out of Arkham Asylum.

Treating patients is very professional, training terrorists is also very professional...

Now that Levi is saying these things to Director Barnes, is it possible that he wants to train Director Barnes to become a terrorist?

This ridiculous idea only flashed through Gordon's mind, and then he was completely suppressed.

How is that possible!

Director Barnes was born in the Navy SEALs and has experienced countless wars. There is absolutely no possibility of him becoming one of those terrorists.

Although Gordon is a little worried about leaving his ex-girlfriend Barbara in Arkham Asylum, there is no other way now.

After the handover process was completed, Director Barnes took Gordon and Harvey out of Arkham Asylum and did not stay here any longer.

Levi stood at the entrance of Arkham Asylum, looking at the direction the other party was leaving, with a smile on his lips.

He had known for a long time that Director Barnes just wanted to see him this time and see if he could get some loopholes.

Levi even knew what Gordon said to Barnes, and everything was as expected.

But for Levi, he didn't want to meet Director Barnes.
