James Gordon, Jr. paid the money silently.

$5.

Slightly expensive.

But it is not important.

After the young James Gordon waved away the postman, he turned over the new notice card.

Needless to say, it was the **** "riddle gentleman" again.

He is almost certain that this mysterious "riddle gentleman" must be related to the former riddler.

Whether it's acting style, or the riddle of mystery.

But it seems to be a little different from the riddler.

The riddle gentleman doesn't commit many crimes, so James Gordon Jr. will be able to tell for a while.

The notice is written with brand new puzzles.

[I will divide the world into two, and will meet the bell of midnight, and walk towards the first light of Gotham. A half-man, half-animal **** descends, and I will twist off the horned head of the god, and use it to carry Gotham's second firework and ignite the torrent from winter to summer. 】

Signed—

[The hot "Riddle Gentleman", Edward Rin, sincerely]

Little James Gordon had cold eyes, almost tore the card in his hand with anger.

His right hand clenched the card tightly.

Until the card became crumpled, James Gordon Jr. slowly straightened the cardboard card again.

Fortunately, the quality of the card is good, otherwise the handwriting would have been lost after a stroke.

"Sir!"

"Fuc...kkkk! Who bombed our Gotham Police Station!"

At this time, some Gotham police officers who saw the explosion and fire nearby, drove police cars and returned to the vicinity of the police station.

When they saw the famous Gotham landmark in the past, when the Gotham Police Station was bombed into ruins, their eyes widened in shock, and they couldn't recover for a long time.

This, this, this, why was it bombed out?

Okay, it's gone if you don't?

Gradually, dozens of Gotham police officers returned to the "formerly" Gotham Police Station.

"Humph!"

James Gordon Jr. looked at the time.

According to the notice, the crime time should be after midnight.

It seemed that the riddle gentleman was about to prepare something.

To commit the next crime.

Now it is more than 5 hours before midnight, which is midnight.

There is plenty of time!

suddenly.

A cold smile gradually emerged from the corner of James Gordon's mouth.

to be honest.

Yi Lin is really not very good at playing riddles.

What can be said in one sentence must be divided into several paragraphs, and then finished with a panting, and others may not be able to understand it.

In Yi Lin's view, this behavior is a bit boring.

But Yi Lin couldn't help it.

Who makes Gotham City like this tune in the book?

It seems that the book "Legend of the Riddler", in the bookstore, is second only to "Legend of the Clown" and "Legend of the Clown Girl", becoming the third best seller in the Gotham Stimulating Little Book series.

Night fell.

The whole Gotham City is no longer the silence of the old night.

On the contrary, the more feverish it became.

The sound of gunshots, noise, cannons, and sound is pleasing to the ears.

It came from all over the city, coming in from time to time, and it was hardly calmed down.

"It seems that others are working hard."

The lights are shining all over the city.

The dazzling light beams intertwined in the sky above the city, and fell on the dark clouds above Gotham City, which looked very stylish.

Yi Lin came slowly from the darkness in a pure black gentleman's tuxedo.

The dark night is his world.

Especially he is now wearing black clothes.

When using the Shadow Follower skill, as long as he hides in the dark, no one can discover his existence.

At least, so far, not.

Tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk.

This is the sound of the question mark scepter gently tapping on the bluestone slab.

The air of Gotham City was gradually filled with a smell of gunpowder.

Come with the wind.

Yi Lin raised his head while holding on to the brim of his hat.

In front of him, is an old bell tower.

Above the clock tower, those two huge hands were moving at a certain rhythm, and Yi Lin could even faintly distinguish the sound of the crisp gears behind the clock tower.

Yi Lin silently checked the "Baidta Cuili" watch in his hand.

【21:33】

Sufficient time.

A wicked smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Yi Lin's mouth.

-wrong.

Yi Lin quickly changed to another smile, the kind that was calm and calm.

Almost played.

He suddenly thought of the actor Li Changge.

With this peculiar style of Gotham City, if that guy is allowed to perform, it is estimated that the performance will be more realistic.

Gotham Clock Tower is also an iconic building.

Twenty years ago, when the villains in Gotham City were most rampant, it is said that this clock tower was bombed by that group of people how many times.

After all these years of repairs and repairs, Gotham Clock Tower finally survived the era of continuous artillery fire.

The lock of the bell tower is rusty.

In Gotham City, with its unsophisticated folk customs, no one has ever dared to risk a “crime” to break into the “no entry” clock tower, so it seems that the lock has never been changed.

Twenty years.

After refurbishing the repaired clock tower, after twenty years of recuperation, it finally has a bit more flavor of "places of interest".

Yi Lin held the rusty lock and stared for a few seconds.

Suddenly smiled.

"Ha ha…"

Then, he took out the blood jasmine, raised the knife in his hand, and directly cut the lock.

There is no difficulty.

Inside the bell tower, there was no one.

This is of course.

Some people call it weird.

Of course, it is not necessarily surprising.

Yi Lin took the pen and paper out of his pocket, the one he had snatched back.

There are no lights in the bell tower.

Yi Lin was a little helpless, but could only walk out of the door of the clock tower and silently wrote a small card.

After writing, I read it three times from beginning to end, and carefully blacked out the question mark on the back. I was finally satisfied.

After making all the preparations, Yi Lin began to step on the clock tower step by step.

When I was about to reach the top of the bell tower.

suddenly.

Yi Lin paused.

Think for a moment.

To be safe, I put away the "question mark scepter" temporarily, and took out another card from the storage space.

After crushing, the gray card turned into a brand-new black umbrella with British style in Yi Lin's hand.

Along the way, Yi Lin passed by the maintenance room of the clock tower.

There are many complex and huge gears running inside.

Driven by the mainspring, it makes a rhythmic sound.

Go up again and you will reach the top of the bell tower.

That is an empty rooftop.

This clock tower didn't know what ghost animal's setting was based on, and an empty platform was built above the clock tower.

It is said that in the last repair, the designer added the structure by himself.

Is this because the villain is not running fast enough?

Although Yi Lin felt that such a setting was a bit weird.

But when I think about it carefully, this is Gotham City, and I don’t think it’s strange to refer to the short stories in those best-selling books.

Gotham City has a simple folk style. Maybe the designer who repaired the clock tower built such a platform to make it easier for the villains to escape from the clock tower.

After all, in the history of Gotham City, there have been too many stories in the Gotham Clock Tower.

Looking down from the platform, although the whole Gotham City is technologically advanced, it is full of weird gothic style. Tracks, trains, water pipes, heavy smoke, and sewers give people a feeling of prosperity but depression. .

Tu Tu Tu—

Suddenly, on the street about two kilometers away from the clock tower.

There was a big fire.

boom.

There are also grenade.

Then, a round figure flew into the air silently.

Then he fell back to the street again.

"Oh, it turned out to be a fat man!"

Yi Lin was very sure.

In this way, classmate Li Erpang is still struggling hard.

Click!

At this moment—

Suddenly, behind Yi Lin heard the sound of a bullet being loaded.

"Gentleman Riddle, raise your hand!"

Yi Lin admired the unique night view of Gotham.

"Edward Rin! Raise your hand!"

Yi Lin turned around and smiled slightly.

Between the expressions, there was no accident.

"The current Gotham Police Sergeant, James Gordon Jr., is honored to meet you."

Yi Lin bowed slightly and gracefully performed a standard gentleman manner to James Gordon Jr.

"Are you a riddle gentleman?"

James Gordon Jr. held the gun steadily, pointed at Yi Lin's head, fingers in the trigger.

Although the light at the top of the clock tower is dim, he can also tell through the intertwined light beams over the city that Edward Rin, who calls himself the "Riddler Gentleman" in front of him, looks so young.

But what's the matter of being calm and unhurried?

James Gordon Jr. could clearly tell that Yi Lin had no weapons in his hands.

Except... a black umbrella.

and many more.

umbrella?

Little James Gordon suddenly remembered another name that resounded through Gotham twenty years ago.

Penguin man.

His weapon is also a black umbrella.

but-

As we all know, the Penguin has a bad relationship with the Riddler. Even if the Riddler has a relationship with the former Riddler, it is impossible to get that umbrella from the Penguin.

This may be a bad imitation crime.

Sheriff Gordon had a guess in his mind.

"I have solved your puzzle!"

Sheriff Gordon sneered coldly: "You botched criminal, do you think you are really a riddler? The crime you committed is enough to sentence you to death 10,000 times according to Gotham City law!"

With that, Sheriff Gordon shook his finger slightly.

It's like pulling the trigger!

"Ha ha-"

In fact, Yi Lin had already known before ascending the clock tower that someone had stepped onto the clock tower before him.

According to the Gotham City Travel Guide, if there is no error in the description of James Gordon Jr., it should be this person who "cracked" the puzzle he set and came here beforehand.

That lock has traces of being opened.

"interesting."

This young James Gordon thought carefully. In order to prevent Yi Lin from finding someone lying in ambush in the clock tower, after climbing the clock tower, he let other people lock the clock tower again, creating an illusion that no one had been here.

Yi Lin's sudden laughter made little James Gordon's pupils shrink.

"why are you laughing?"

"Are you sure, you cracked my riddle?"

In the darkness, Erin stared into young Gordon's eyes, piercing.

Like two stars in the dark.

"Following the midnight bell, isn't it referring to the clock tower? Your presence here is proof that I have solved the riddle."

Yi Lin smiled slightly, and gently rubbed his fingers on the handle of the umbrella.

"My riddle is more than just this sentence?"

"Besides, it's... it's not midnight."

"..."

Little Gordon was speechless, but soon he cleared his mind and aimed the gun at Yi Lin.

"No matter what the answer to the riddle is, you, botched Gotham criminal, you will die here!"

"Want to know the answer?"

Gordon was taken aback.

He nodded almost subconsciously.

In these few hours, he almost racked his brains to think about the answer to this riddle.

But apart from the first two sentences, everything else made him feel confused.

I can't guess why.

My heart was sore and itchy.

There is a feeling that it is difficult to stop the itching without knowing the answer to the riddle.

Yi Lin seemed to have insight into the psychology of Sheriff Gordon, even if he was pointed at by a gun, he still stood still.

Besides, Yi Lin's perception had already spread, even if he had the signs of shooting, Yi Lin didn't panic.

-There are preparatory plans.

Yi Lin's expression suddenly gave Sheriff Gordon an illusion, as if he was the one pointed at by the gun.

But... it doesn't matter!

He has the upper hand!

Now he is the one with the gun in his hand!

No one can commit a crime in Gotham!

The offender must die!

Here... is his Gotham!

Not the Gotham of anyone else.

Yi Lin laughed again.

"Give you a hint."

James Gordon Jr: "?"

Yi Lin suddenly said loudly: "The reminder is... from this moment on, the world will feel pain."

James Gordon Jr: "???"

In an instant.

Yi Lin's voice just fell.

Little James Gordon seemed to have a loud bang in his mind, his eyes went dark, and he fell straight behind him.

Boom.

Flower in the back of the head.

I don't know how long it took.

James Gordon Jr. opened his eyes again.

There is no such damned criminal in front of me!

He quickly got up from the ground and looked down from above the bell tower.

Below the clock tower, police cars are already crowded.

Caught?

Or was it run away?

and many more.

From this bell tower, the riddle gentleman can never jump from here safe and sound, right?

Even the famous riddler 20 years ago could never have this level.

It's not the Batman who can go to the sky!

Thinking of the previous name, James Gordon Jr. looked cold.

At this time, he felt a sudden pain in the back of his head.

I feel dizzy.

Little Gordon reached out and touched, blood dripping from the back of his head.

He gritted his teeth and ignored it.

Suddenly, he found this small white card standing upright in a corner of the platform.

"!"

Little Gordon couldn't even take care of the wound on his head, so he picked up the little card and took a look, his eyes widened immediately.

I saw a line written on the card.

Still a puzzle.

But this time, it is a well-known puzzle that anyone who has read the best-selling book "Legend of the Riddler" knows the answer!

[I exist in reality, I am absurd in reality, you can interpret me, you can create me, who am I? 】

Signed—

[Friendly neighbors in Gotham City, warm tips, Riddle gentleman Edward Rin, sincerely. 】

James Gordon Jr. shredded the card blankly.

The card is pretty hard.

It's a bit hard to tear up.

But the card was still broken.

The radiance floated down from the top of the bell tower.

Like fine snow.

"lie!"

—This is the answer.

Everyone in Gotham citizens knows the answer.

It's too classic after all.

It is written in the book.

James Gordon Jr. also read it when he was a child and was obsessed for a while.

Ahem... In short, this is a warm reminder from the "Riddler Gentleman".

Does it mean that there is a lie hidden in the first puzzle?

That's why he came to the clock tower?

Is he the one being deceived?

A poor imitator?

"What the **** did the riddle gentleman just now, why did I faint suddenly?"

Sheriff Gordon frowned, his expression becoming colder.

There was a hint of hatred faintly mixed.

"But why didn't he kill me?"

"Don't... I'm not worthy of him doing it?"

"hateful…"

Sheriff Gordon let out a low growl.

But he did not forget his responsibilities.

He quickly walked down the clock tower, took out the flashlight from his waist, and carefully searched the interior of the entire clock tower.

It is very possible that the "Riddler Gentleman" was still in the bell tower and did not escape.

Sheriff Gordon would not let himself pass any possibility.

No one noticed.

In the dark.

The other side of the clock tower.

A dark figure wearing a black tuxedo, wearing a jet-black gentleman's hat, spotless white gloves, holding an umbrella in one hand, slowly falling from the sky.

Elegant, evil, that figure is like a nobleman dancing in the dark night.

Night is his dance floor.

It's a pity that there is no dancing partner.

Yi Lin settled down on the ground and put away the umbrella.

Not far away, the piercing police siren continued, shining red and blue.

Yi Lin smiled slightly and continued to follow him like a shadow, silently hiding in the darkness.

"Sure enough... can't the'riddle' copied from the book be triggered?"

Yi Lin, who had gradually moved away from the clock tower, whispered in the dark.

But it was normal. Yi Lin had expected it a long time ago. It was only on a whim, he took a look, and did an experiment by the way.

Turning another corner, Yi Lin suddenly felt his whole body sink.

In the upper right corner of the apostle panel, a double-winged BUFF icon suddenly disappeared.

Time is just right.

Ah no, it's a little bit more.

It was indeed an accident for Yi Lin to face James Gordon Jr. above the clock tower tonight, but it was not entirely an accident.

The puzzles he set have twofold.

The most brain-dead, and the second hidden in the depths of lies.

Itin's original plan A was to leave a card at the location pointed to by the first lie puzzle.

If it was midnight, someone went up to the clock tower and saw the card left deliberately, it might add a bit of mystery and legend to the name "Riddler Gentleman".

Even if there is only one point, it is not a loss.

As for what is written on the card?

Here comes the riddle gentleman?

I won’t be able to cover my eyes again this day?

My riddle, your heart?

None of these matters, anyway, Yi Lin finally adopted Plan B.

There were 9 plans from A1 to A9, and Yi Lin discarded all of them when he saw the rusty lock.

Reworked a series of plans.

On the mental side, the mind turns so fast and so headstrong.

"Hehe, now, in that Sheriff Gordon's heart, a seed should have been planted?"

"Next, some people should also be on the stage, right?"

Yi Lin knew that this glorious restoration journey in Gotham City had just begun.

Hiding in the dark.

Yi Lin took out...a lot of cards from the storage space.

All in one hand.

Like thirteen in one hand.

Take a closer look, they are all the same pattern, ah no, the same pattern.

[Enhanced TNT bomb]

【Grade】Ordinary

[Effect] What else do you want to do besides explosion?

[Explanation] Well, explosion is the real art!

Yi Lin looked at the hand of cards.

Some headaches.

What about the next one? Or is it king bomb plus king bomb and then king bomb?

This is the arms savings accumulated by Gotham City for 20 years of zero crime!

suddenly!

At this moment—

The sky of Gotham City above Irin's head became brighter.

Countless spotlights gathered in the center of Gotham City as if they were controlled by someone.

All the light beams converge, as if waiting for some kind of existence to come.

"Cough cough cough cough-"

A cough resounded through the night sky from the Gotham City radio.

Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared in the center of the beam of light.

I saw that figure was wearing a tight purple suit that didn't fit well, with a weird clown painting painted on his face, and the corners of his mouth looked a little strange and unpredictable against the background of the painting.

This is-

Stereo projection?

and many more. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Yi Lin frowned suddenly.

This person looks a bit familiar.

"Jie Jie Jie—"

"LadiesAndGentlemen—Jiejiejie—"

The man in the suit suddenly let out a sharp and weird sound, with a bit of madness, and laughed.

Accompanied by the Gotham City Broadcasting System, the laughter seemed extremely harsh.

"I, Joker, I'm back!"

Yi Lin was startled slightly.

This voice—

It is clearly Pan Zhengyi!
