Marvel's Infinite Personalities

Chapter 420 Not Enough

What Congressman Harrison didn't know was that even though Penguin still looked calm and calm, his inner shock was not at all inferior to him, or even worse than him!

Because Penguin knows more than he does!

Like Senator Harrison, Penguin also knew Lanzer, and he was much more familiar with Lanzer than Senator Harrison.

Gotham is so big, and the communication between the upper echelons is much more intensive than ordinary people imagine.

Although the Monroe family is not as powerful as the Copot family, it is still ranked among the top ten families in Gotham. They are also carnivores at the top of the food chain, so they are no strangers to each other.

As the spokesperson of the Monroe family, Lanzel has cooperated with him several times, and he has also heard that the Monroe family is one of the founding families of the 'Court of Owls' and is a core member.

The Supreme Council Amanda mentioned undoubtedly refers to the decision-making level of the 'Court of Owls'.

In addition, Penguin also noticed another name mentioned by Amanda-Floyd!

Congressman Harrison may not know who Floyd is because he is not familiar with the underground world.

But how could Penguin, a gangster, not know the name of Gotham's former number one assassin? Speaking of which, he had hired Freud several times, so he was considered an old acquaintance.

However, even if Floyd is Gotham's number one assassin, it is nothing in his eyes.

It wasn't until the incident five years ago that he began to face up to this 'tool man' who had once been ignored by him.

As the so-called layman watches the fun, the expert watches the doorway.

Floyd's rise to fame five years ago made many people pay attention to the mysterious promoter behind it. Even Batman, who didn't know the name of the 'Court of Owls' at that time and only knew about the existence of this force, has since A lot of clues were revealed in that incident.

Penguin and other bosses who already knew about the existence of the 'Court of Owls' would find it easier to guess the truth.

In fact, the 'Court of Owls' was very reluctant to agree to Raymond's conditions that time, because they have always believed in the strategy of keeping a low profile and trying not to be exposed as much as possible.

That time, Floyd was quickly promoted as the second Batman, and many people who didn't know about the "Court of Owls" began to pay attention. Of course, this was not happy for them.

However, the situation is stronger than the people. Compared with breaking up with the mysterious organization behind Floyd, they can only compromise.

Even Raymond didn't expect that it was because of that incident that many people would associate Freud with the "Court of Owls."

Penguin is one of those who holds this view.

So he didn't believe that the clown was killed by Floyd at all, because he knew both men, and based on his understanding of the two people, he didn't think that Floyd could kill a monster like the clown.

Therefore, in his eyes, it was the 'Court of Owls' who killed the clown who was in the way, but he was afraid of exposing his own existence, so he used Freud as a shield to divert the public's attention.

As for why Floyd disappeared for five years later, in his opinion, it should also be related to the "Court of Owls".

Perhaps the 'Court of Owls' was afraid that this matter would be leaked to Freud, so they finally chose to kill him.

Based on the information Penguin knows, this set of logic is indeed self-consistent, and he has always thought so.

Until I heard what Amanda said...

Hypothesis

What Amanda said is true, so Freud is obviously not just a shield for the Court of Owls, but also has some connection with the mixed-race young man named Raymond in front of him. Maybe the two belong to the same force. Maybe.

Moreover, the 'Court of Owls' is obviously in a weak position in front of this force.

From what Amanda just said, it was not difficult for him to get some useful information, and then draw a conjecture that is close to the truth——

After Floyd disappeared five years ago, the 'Court of Owls' tried to arrest his daughter, and the person who made this suggestion happened to be Lanzel, an old acquaintance of Penguin.

The result should be that it failed, and was discovered by the forces to which Freud belonged, and they wanted to seek an explanation from the 'Court of Owls'.

In order not to anger the forces to which Floyd belonged, the 'Court of Owls' was willing to take the initiative to execute Lanzer, one of its core decision-makers, to appease the anger of Floyd and the forces behind him.

Raymond and Freud should belong to the same force, and Amanda came to Raymond to communicate about this matter.

When Penguin came to this conclusion, even he was shocked, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated!

Because if that was the case, then Raymond would be a hundred times more troublesome than he thought, and he was definitely someone he couldn't afford to offend!

"Damn Harley Quinn, she found another supporter so quickly!" Penguin cursed in his heart.

He originally thought that the Joker was dead and that Harley was not worth his attention at all, but he didn't expect that Harley would follow a more ruthless one... If he had known that Raymond had such a background, he would have been so cruel to him if his brain was broken. Well, isn't this just asking for trouble?

Thinking of this, Penguin quietly glanced at the subordinate next to him. When the subordinate came closer, he whispered a few instructions in his ear.

After hearing this, his subordinates nodded and quietly left the scene.

This move made Congressman Harrison feel nervous, subconsciously thinking that the Penguin had some conspiracy.

Raymond and the others naturally noticed Penguin's actions, but they didn't pay attention and continued to communicate on their own.

"not enough."

After listening to Amanda's suggestion, Raymond said calmly.

Amanda did not show any dissatisfaction after hearing this, and continued, "The Monroe family will accept our purge. From now on, they will no longer have the opportunity to get involved in politics or business. They will work for Lanze." You will pay the price for your decision..."

"It's still not enough." Raymond remained unmoved.

Amanda paused and then said: "We will use all resources to train Mr. Floyd's daughter, and make her a real upper class person in Gotham at all costs, and when she becomes an adult, she will replace Lanzer’s position has become one of the seven core members of the Supreme Council!”

Hearing this, Penguin took a breath!

He is not some country bumpkin who has never seen the world. With his status and power, there are not many things that can surprise him.

But hearing Amanda's successive 'conditions of apology' still made him feel like he was hallucinating.

When did the behemoth ‘Court of Owls’ become so easy to talk to?

Just because of an unsuccessful decision, he had to abolish one of his core decision-makers. He even did not hesitate to purge this core decision-maker, and even took the initiative to let an underage girl take the place of the purged core decision-maker. .

Is this really the 'Court of Owls' he knows?
