I just want to live a peaceful life in DC world

Chapter 52 What did you do to Barbara, brat

Ms. Shiva, one of the ceilings of fighting technology in the DC world, is also known as the world's number one killer.In the original comics, her fighting skills are even stronger than Batman, and she is the real pinnacle of mortals.

Jacques recalled the image of Wu Shan, and felt that she was incompatible with the role of Ms. Siwa. No matter how she thought about it, Ms. Siwa was not the kind of delicate woman who was chased by a scarecrow, let alone asking for help—even if she was It's a fake, but it's hard to imagine that this is the behavior of Ms. Shiva, who has a strong sense of honor.

Maybe it's just another person with the same name and surname.Jacques convinced himself like this, but he still cared about the mysterious woman named Wu Shan in his heart.

Perhaps because of the residual effect of the toxin, Jacques, who always felt restless, tossed and turned and suffered from insomnia again.So he went to Harley's room to cover little Zyra, who was sleeping peacefully, and Harley Quinn beside her, and then Jacques quietly left the basement.

The interior of the current abandoned warehouse has completely changed. Although the exterior looks like a dilapidated warehouse as a disguise, the interior has actually been converted into a two-story operation base, with combat conference rooms, training rooms, restaurants, and dormitories.

Jacques tiptoed through the internal passage and arrived at the warehouse door, only then did he realize that another person was already here.

"Barbara? Why are you up so late?"

Standing at the door and looking up at the moon quietly is Barbara holding coffee in her hands. Her hair is tied up casually, a coat is draped over her shoulders, and her thin-rimmed glasses give people a quiet and elegant feeling.

"I just checked the hotel's surveillance video and check-in list again. I wanted to find the Miss Wu Shan you mentioned, but in the end I couldn't find any clues."

Jacques's heart sank. He trusted Barbara's hacking ability. What is the origin of Wu Shan, who can cover her tracks so perfectly.

"However, I didn't expect you to believe my words so much. I thought you would be my illusion like Dinah."

"Of course I will believe you—you saved me from Black Mask at the risk of your own life. I also wanted to repay this kindness, so I came here to help and joined GKD."

Hearing Barbara's words, Jacques felt a little embarrassed. After all, Barbara said she wanted to help him, but in fact he just wanted to spend enough time in this organization and leave with money.

As if sensing Jacques' thoughts, Barbara smiled slyly.

"I'm really helping you tell you a secret. The satellite positioning effect of the communicator can be accurate to within one meter, so I know exactly where you are 'on standby'—even which toilet cubicle it is."

Jacques was dumbfounded, he felt like a lazy fisherman caught by his boss.

"But don't worry, I don't intend to expose you, I will cooperate with you and try to arrange you to a more relaxed job. Why this expression, you don't think I am the emissary sent by Batman to oversee the work, I have said it all, I'm on your side."

Barbara took a sip of her coffee, her glasses were instantly fogged up, and her eyes could not be seen.

"Although Batman asked me to come here, he must have a corresponding plan. But I am not his tool, I will have my own judgment. I think your idea is very reasonable. It is everyone's right to pursue a peaceful life."

"It's not reasonable for Batman to want you to shoulder the burden of policing Gotham - that responsibility should not rest on you, nor on any ordinary citizen, including me, and the only person responsible for it is the GCPD aka my father That's all."

Jacques looked at Barbara in surprise, and murmured in a low voice in disbelief.

"I didn't expect you to think like this. I thought you were—"

"The kind of little girl who dreams of being a hero, right? Like Dinah."

Barbara smiled bitterly, then shook her head slightly.

"I did think so three years ago, but people will grow. After experiencing those things, I have also deeply understood my powerlessness, and I no longer have the arrogance and self-righteousness I used to have."

"Of course, I am also very clear that it is unrealistic for Gotham to lose its superhero protection all at once, so I will still use the platform of GKD to protect the city before Batman recovers—and for you, Jacques, you just have to obey Just make up your own mind."

Jacques was silent for a moment, then looked at Barbara with emotion.

"Thank you, I didn't expect you to know me so well, but I have always misunderstood you."

"It's not so much that I know you. It's better to say that I know little Zyra. After all, I know better than anyone else that the two roles of being a good father and a hero cannot be both. Whether Batman or my father, they both choose In order to be a hero, I don't want the tragedy of my family to repeat itself on Zyra—"

Ding ding ding.

The crisp ringtone interrupted Barbara's words. Barbara frowned slightly, then held the coffee cup with one hand, and took out the phone from her trouser pocket with the other.

The moment she saw the caller ID, Barbara's face darkened immediately.

drop.

"Barbara, I hope it's not bothering you so late—"

Perhaps because the surroundings were too quiet, Jacques next to him could clearly hear the sound from the mobile phone.

"Excuse me, Sergeant Gordon. It's already early morning. I've fallen asleep in my room and was just woken up by your phone call. I hope you know that lack of sleep can affect the quality of a woman's skin."

Barbara's voice was completely gone from the gentleness just now, and there was a hint of irritation in her indifference.

"Huh, sorry. I didn't notice the time - but I want you to do me a favor, Barbara, can you give me the contact information for that sunny boy... the man who beat the Scarecrow? I have something important to do Find him, please!"

Gordon wants me?Jacques's heart skipped a beat, isn't it because he wants to blame me for the disabled scarecrow?
"My daughter moved out and lived for half a month. She didn't care about her and didn't even make a phone call. Then she suddenly called in the middle of the night and asked my daughter to help find another man. Hehe, Sheriff Gordon, you What a good father."

It seems that the relationship between Gordon and his daughter is still so tense. Jacques quietly eavesdropped on their conversation. Obviously, both of them would risk their lives for each other, so why can't they be more frank?

"Barbara, I'm sorry. But can I"

There was a flash of anger in Barbara's eyes, then she glanced at Jacques, and suddenly showed a strange smile.

When Jacques met Barbara's gaze, he instantly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"I see, Dad, he just happened to be next to me, I'll give him the phone, if you have anything to say to him directly—"

"Thanks, Barbara - eh? Wait!! Wait Barbara!! Didn't you say you just fell asleep in your room?!"

Barbara handed the phone to Jacques, with a happy and happy expression on her face, and there seemed to be a sound of breaking a cup from the microphone.

Suddenly lying down and being shot, the stunned Jacques subconsciously took Barbara's cell phone, and there was a roar from the microphone.

"Brat! What did you do to my precious daughter!"
