Gotham Dark Godfather

Deadshot Norton walked down the street dejectedly. His stomach, which had not eaten since early in the morning, began to growl. The hot sun was burning his skin, as if he had returned to the terrible heat and sand in Afghanistan... This made him Feeling more and more anxious. !

You know, he got up and went out before dawn, preparing to attend a job fair of a security company. However, when he got the form, Deadshot Norton felt that he had no hope. The resume did not require much practical combat or firearms experience. Instead, three lines were reserved after the education column to fill in other education received besides public schools, which made Norton, a high school graduate, very uncomfortable.

After delivering his resume, he rushed to the Department of Veterans Affairs and prepared to receive this month's allowance.This amount of money is very important to him, as it affects his subsequent rent and living expenses.But who would have expected that after queuing for two hours, the clerk returned his form with a straight face.

"Sir, your conditions do not meet the scope of the allowance," the clerk said impatiently: "There are only two types of people here who can get this kind of treatment, either they are soldiers who have served for more than 20 years, and the Ministry of National Defense will issue pensions. and welfare medical insurance. Alternatively, there are sixteen levels of subsidies for disabled military personnel. Relevant subsidies will be issued as appropriate based on the severity of the injury-----but in your case, you were dismissed from the military. It is impossible for personnel to receive any allowance at all!”

Faced with such a situation, if it were Zhou Hao, he would probably have put a sum of money into the clerk's hands and asked him to help clear things up.But Norton had not yet completely blackened him. His arrogant character and stubborn dignity made him disdain to argue with these guys, and the habit of obedience developed by the army made him unable to bring himself to beat these guys who looked down on others. A meal.

The final outcome can only be that Norton held back his anger and left the Department of Veterans Affairs in disgrace.

"It has been almost a month since I returned to Gotham from the army, but I can't find any job..." Norton wandered the bustling streets of Gotham in a depressed mood, looking at the people coming and going in a daze: "Could it be that Do you have to go back to your old job? According to what those gangster guys said, why not pick up a gun and become a killer? Or go to the jungles of South America to work as a mercenary? These jobs are satisfying, you don't have to look at people's faces, and the money comes quickly, but... ..."

In a society like Gotham, where American imperialism is shameless, killers can be regarded as the most popular profession in the dark world. The more prestigious the big shot, the richer the reward. The Deadshot in the original plot, as a killer and The leader of mercenaries naturally earns a lot of money. Zhou, who sells pirated discs from far away, makes a lot of money (thanks to @一九的 weapon for providing the idea).But the problem is that at this moment, Norton is still a little hesitant about whether to become a killer, and the key to this dilemma is his daughter.

"I lost my parents when I was young and grew up alone... From that time on, I decided that if I had a child in the future, I would never let her live a life without seeing her parents... ." Deadshot Norton thought secretly: "If I join the underworld now, I can certainly make a lot of money, but once I step on this road, I'm afraid it will be difficult to turn back. Should I ask her to live a life of running away with me? Or send the child to her mother? Come on, that guy's boyfriend is a complete scumbag. He can't even take care of himself. How can he treat my sweetheart well...Wait? Today is the end of the month? Damn it! It’s time to pay alimony to that woman again....Unlucky, I didn’t receive the allowance...."

What I want to say here is that in most versions, including the New 52, ​​Deadshot's marriage is not good.After his wife divorced him, she found a new boyfriend. She was very dissatisfied with Deadshot, and because she hated the house and the black people, she naturally wouldn't look down upon his daughter.But sometimes due to business issues, Norton, who killed someone and needed to go out to avoid the limelight, had to leave the child to his ex-wife to take care of. This caused his daughter to fall into a whirlpool of rejection and domestic cold violence.

In addition, due to the divorce, Norton also needs to pay his ex-wife a large amount of alimony every month, otherwise the court is likely to determine that he has no ability to raise his daughter, thereby depriving him of the right to custody of his daughter.

It turns out that today happens to be the deadline for giving money.

"What the hell! This day is really unlucky." Deadshot Norton dug into his pocket angrily, squeezed out the few coins he had, looked around, found a fairly clean phone booth, and called the guy anxiously. A number I don’t want to recall.

The call was quickly connected, and deafening music could be heard faintly. Could it be that pretty boy having a party in his house again?Thinking about it, I feel angry. I have to get up early every day and try my best to go out to make money. So when I get home, I fall down on the sofa from exhaustion and cannot get up.But it is ironic that his ex-wife can stay in an air-conditioned room and use her hard-earned money to have fun every day.

"Listen, I'm calling you," Deadshot Norton said impatiently, without even waiting for the other party to speak first: "This month's alimony may be delayed for a few days. Listen to me, these bastard bureaucrats in Gotham , the work efficiency is like that of an author who delayed the manuscript, which is very irritating... Today... after I went there... they told me that I still need to wait for a few days... to review some necessary processes... .Anyway..."

Having said this, even though Deadshot is a real tough guy, he couldn't help but whisper with a guilty conscience: "Can you hold off for a few days and let me think of a way...Whether it's borrowing or making up, in short, the money will be transferred to your card." ....."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, and then he said doubtfully: "Norton? Are you kidding? Didn't you already get a sum of money today? It's still three full months, and I thought you were finally My conscience has discovered it, why are you here now to complain about your poverty? Are you kidding me?..."

Hearing this, Deadshot was immediately startled and asked subconsciously: "What? Someone has already given you money? Is it wrong? I have been applying for new jobs all morning, where can I find the time to do this? "

"You are absolutely right. The amount is exactly three times the monthly alimony, and it was specially entered into our exclusive account---even your name was specially noted." The voice on the phone said impatiently: "Otherwise, where do you think I'm going to get the money for the party now? Okay, so don't call me and waste my time..."

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly, leaving Deadshot with a confused look on his face: Who paid back the money for him?
