[Zhongyingmei] Vampires also want to fall in love

Chapter 86

As the highest authority in the Gotham government, Warlock's work is not easy. In addition to signing documents, holding meetings, and meeting with the heads of various departments, he also needs to communicate with other cities and even the White House to report on work, and occasionally Make time to attend various city-building event openings.

Sending off the chairman of the trade union of the Economic Mutual Aid Committee, Warlock closed his eyes and rubbed the center of his brows. Next, he will meet the chairman of the Anti-Domestic Violence Association. She is a woman with a sharp tongue. He has to adjust his state within 5 minutes And take a rough look at the main topics that the lady is about to say.

This kind of busyness does not make Warlock physically tired, but it brings great mental pressure to Warlock.It is because Warlock is too dedicated that he has a heavy workload.

The mayors of Gotham in the past were very idle, and the heads of various departments and trade unions avoided them, because once the previous mayors met, they would ask for benefits from them openly and secretly, and only those corrupt officials would take the initiative to join them Clinging to the previous mayor and he is in the same boat.

After a period of observation, these people in charge can see that Warlock Dowling is indeed a responsible mayor. Perhaps his political ideas are too simple and his methods are simple, but he has been working hard to do a good job. mayor.

They couldn't wait to gather around Mayor Dorian, and wanted to make Gotham develop in a good direction, even if it was only two years.

"Mr. Mayor, Mr. Wayne sent flowers and lunch." Angelina knocked on the door and came in to remind her that she was numb now, and the two seemed to be seriously in love.

Warlock glanced at his watch. At 38:10, there was only 10 minutes in his schedule for Chairman Ganna of the Anti-Domestic Violence Association.But both Warlock and Angelina understand that Chairman Ganna will never be satisfied with [-] minutes, and will definitely delay the time as late as possible.

"Put the flowers in the lounge first, and change the flowers in the office at noon. For lunch, let's talk about it after I finish the meeting."

When Bruce first fell in love, he still struggled to get up and bring flowers and lunch to the city hall to wait for Warlock to have a meal with him. After several consecutive meetings with Warlock or delays in interviewing the person in charge until there was no lunch break or lunch, Bruce realized.Now he would send flowers and lunch, and he would pick up Warlock when he confirmed that he had time to eat together.

Warlock Dowling and Bruce Wayne didn't hide their relationship. On the contrary, few newspapers broke the news that they were in love. Even the staff of the Gotham City Government just marveled at the friendship between the two. Firmly, only the secretaries of the secretary's office know the truth, and they will not casually spread gossip about the mayor.

This was mainly because Mayor Dowling was too busy to spend much time hanging out with Bruce Wayne.The secretaries who knew about it felt a little sympathetic to Bruce Wayne. Every time Bruce Wayne came to the hall of the city hall to surprise Warlock, Warlock always had important work to do.

He could only sit aggrievedly in the mayor's exclusive lounge, wait for Warlock to say a few words to him after finishing work, give him a kiss, and then continue to watch Warlock devote himself to his busy work.

Gotham baby Bruce Wayne is like the flowers he holds, wilting little by little in the waiting.When Angelina refilled his tea and poured water for him, Bruce, who looked as low as a leaf scattered by raindrops, couldn't bear it.

"Mr. Wayne sent a card together, hoping to have dinner with you tonight. The butler of Wayne Manor also made an appointment for you tonight."

Warlock's movement of rubbing between his brows froze, and Bruce made double insurance to have dinner with him tonight, there must be something important to say.

"I see, I'll call Bruce, you don't need to follow up, go do something else."

Warlock reflected that he had indeed neglected Bruce recently. He was on night patrol with Batman every night, and subconsciously he didn't feel that the two lacked time to spend together.Now it seems that Bruce has separated Bruce Wayne from Batman, and he began to express his dissatisfaction with Warlock's neglect.

"I can understand how busy you are at work, Warlock, I'm not as fragile as you imagined." Bruce's face was full of helplessness.

He was taken aback by Warlock. The first thing Warlock did after getting into the co-pilot was to seriously analyze that he had unconsciously neglected Bruce for the sake of work and sincerely apologized, which made Bruce very uncomfortable.

Bruce leaned over, and Warlock closed his eyes subconsciously. The expected kiss did not fall, and a belt bound his body.Warlock opened his eyes a little disappointed, and found that Bruce hadn't returned to the driver's seat, and dropped a kiss the moment he opened his eyes.

"The nature of your work determines that we can't get tired of being together every day like ordinary couples, and I don't want you to ignore work for me. I am happy to have dinner together on weekdays, date on weekends, and occasionally go out on vacation together Happy."

Bruce drove steadily, occasionally turning his head and smiling at Warlock.The relationship between the two has always been dominated by Bruce, and he has gradually discovered that his previous rich emotional experience cannot be fully adapted between him and Warlock.

"I'm so anxious to ask you out today because I have something to discuss with you." Bruce parked the car in front of the hotel that he had reserved in advance, and followed the waiter side by side with Warlock to the reserved location, "Do you remember the previous one?" The kid who worked in the orphanage and gave us important news during the ghetto incident?"

"Of course, Jason Todd, very impressed." Warlock raised his eyebrows slightly, he already understood what Bruce wanted to talk to him about.

"The Wayne Group's youth funding project has been paying attention to him. It was reported in the project report a few days ago that his mother passed away, and he started wandering in the slums. This is not good news."

"Environment plays a very important role in the development of a teenager. He was a good kid, and letting him roam the streets of Gotham would definitely destroy him."

Warlock nodded slightly to thank the waiter who brought the lemonade, and took a sip of the cold lemonade before speaking: "I agree with this, what are you going to do?"

"I want to adopt him." Bruce stared into Warlock's eyes, trying to see Warlock's attitude from those gray-blue talking eyes.

□□It can be simple or serious, and Warlock chose to take it seriously.

"I want to know why you want to adopt him. Bruce, this is very important, you know that adopting a child is not just giving them a house and some food toys?"

Bruce turned serious and explained: "I have seriously considered it. You know that I adopted Dick, right? When I adopted Dick, we were not much different in age. At that time, I knew how to educate a child to grow up healthily. How difficult it is, mostly mental health."

"I have considered sending Jason to leave Gotham to find an ordinary family to adopt him, or to find a trustworthy family in Gotham to adopt him, but the final conclusion is that it is not feasible. The problem is not with those who are willing to adopt Jason, but with Jason himself."

"Kids living in Gotham, kids who have experienced the death of their parents, such as me, Dick, and now Jason Todd, we all have psychological problems to varying degrees, and psychological problems prevent us from integrating into the world. Another happy and healthy family. Jason, especially, has a deep Gotham imprint in his character, and only those who can conquer him can make him truly obedient."

"Compared to running in from the very beginning, and the failure of the running in may cause scars on both parties, it is better to choose someone he has a certain liking for and adopt him."

"On the other hand, it is for my old butler Alfred. He always hopes that I can bring another master of Wayne Manor home, and it would be better to bring back a few young masters. After Dick went to Bluhaven, he All attention is on me, I haven't been stared at so closely for a long time..."

Bruce leaned back in the chair, complaining about the old butler, but his eyes were shining with useful light. Obviously, he didn't really reject the old butler's concern.

"You convinced me, I have one last question."

"what?"

"You can decide this kind of thing by yourself, why do you have to ask me?"

"Because I hope I can bring back another owner of Wayne Manor and the new little owner." Bruce said.

……

After Bruce confirmed that Warlock had no objection to his adoption of Jason Todd, he quickly transferred Jason Todd's social relationship to his own name.

Warlock originally wanted to take time to see the kid who had a new family, but the new disease that broke out in Gotham left him so devastated that he had no free time at all.

"This new type of disease is spreading rapidly, with multiple transmission routes, a short incubation period, and more than a dozen induced diseases. It is not fatal in itself. Most of the current causes of death are caused by induced diseases."

Warlock's mind was turning the report of the medical minister, but he couldn't find a clue.

In order to avoid the infection of new diseases, the Gotham government requires enterprises to suspend operations. If they can work online, they should work online. Those who cannot work online should try their best to overcome difficulties.

The better news is that most of the mechanical jobs that require labor in Gotham's large enterprises have gradually replaced labor with machinery in the past few years, which has greatly controlled the spread of the disease.

Some small enterprises and factories do not have the conditions for mechanization, but still employ a large number of laborers to work. Such factories are the fastest places to fall.

"Master Warlock, strange people have appeared in the seriously ill area." The smart butler monitored the entire Gotham, projecting strange scenes in front of Warlock.

People in black robes and beak masks roamed the slums. They used wooden sticks to pick apart the patient's clothes and precisely hit the patient's lesion. The beaten patient vomited and howled in pain, and then he would recover There are many.

"Plague doctors..." Warlock licked his lips. These disease doctors seemed to be walking, but they were actually floating.

Their appearance indicated that this sudden disease was not a man-made disaster, but a natural disaster.

The gray angel first appeared in Gotham in the evening, and he was flying along the coastline of Gotham, and he was [-]% sure that he could find the culprit here.

"The filth flows into the creek, into the lake, into the sea, melts into the flesh and blood, melts into life, weeps, howls..."

A woman in a wheelchair hummed a ditty softly, her eyes were covered by a gray cloth with mottled dirt marks, and there was a pleasant smile on her lips.

"Pollution...or should I call you, the plague." Warlock folded his wings and landed behind the plague of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. He extremely resisted this guy. She had impurities that could erode the body and mind.

"I also like the name Plague, but it's a pity that Pollution is better known now."

"You brought the disease to Gotham without knowing that it would meet me." Warlock pursed his lips, suppressing his anger. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse had nothing to do with good or evil. He wanted to know why the plague came to Gotham.

Plague turned her head in Warlock's direction, cloth strips covered her eyes, but Warlock knew she was looking at him, with strength.

"Relax, child. I came here just to follow the laws of fate. No one dictated my coming here. What made me appear here is the common will of this city."

"Look, isn't it beautiful here?" She stretched out her finger to the sea. The surface of the beautiful sea, which was originally sparkling like the clearest emerald, was covered with a layer of black. metropolis.

Warlock's palm is cold. Gotham is an industrial city, and it has only begun to transform in recent years. The pollution caused before cannot be eliminated in a short while, let alone the Gotham government's poor control, and many companies secretly exceed the emission standards. sewage.

"Why are you here?" Warlock asked coldly.

Gotham is not the only one with heavy pollution. Any city that wants to develop rapidly will inevitably sacrifice the environment to achieve development. Gotham is not the only one doing this.The real question is why the pollution of one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse is here.

"Someone called me. I like that guy. He still remembers my former name—Plague." Plague's voice was brisk, as if there was some joy in it, but it didn't seem to be there. "I didn't realize until I came here that this place is really a good place."

"This is my city, are you provoking me?" Warlock's hand holding the scepter tightened, and the ruby ​​at the top of the scepter emitted a dangerous light.

Plague couldn't see Warlock's movements, but she could feel Warlock's anger, and smiled as if treating a child: "Relax, child, as I said, relax."

"You say this is your city, so what? You don't know what is hidden here. Even if I don't come, others will come. I have no intention of competing with you for the ownership of the city, as long as you solve that Those who summon me, I will naturally leave."

Batman can be said to be the first group of people who noticed the spread of the disease. He tried to find a special medicine to solve the disease, but he has been unable to do so.

The worst thing is that Alfred fell ill. He was getting old, and his resistance was much weaker after being sick. Batman restricted Alfred's travel. He was very worried that the old butler would also be infected with a new type of disease. .

In his monitoring, Warlock has been staying peacefully in the apartment and having various meetings. He can see that Warlock is getting more and more anxious, and Warlock is bearing the pressure of the entire Gotham.

The two were trying to find a solution to the crisis in their respective fields. When the gray angel appeared, Batman knew he must have found the key.

The Batmobile followed the gray angel's positioning and came to the coast at lightning speed. Batman heard the woman in the wheelchair opposite the gray angel say in the mist:

"Your enemy is not me. In addition, be vigilant, someone is destroying the gate of corruption. Once the sealing power is lost, Gotham will become a place of demon carnival."
