At the end of the recording, only Riddlerâs long wicked laugh remained.
Mathison didnât know how he managed to listen to his laugh for so long without getting angry, but in order to avoid greater mental pollution, Mathison decided to leave the top of Wayne Tower.
Of course, he didnât land on the ground but used his glider to fly beyond Midtown Island.
At the same time, he turned on the speaker on his body and told Gordon and the others goodbye.
âComrades of the GCPD, you must have heard the recording left by the Riddler, then the matter here is completely over.â
âThank you for your cooperation, and I hope you can join me and become the security guards of the scene in which I am about to perform.â
Gordon and the others watched Phantom Kid fly away, and the other partyâs hearty laughter could be heard in their ears.
âPhantom Kid actually wants police officers to be his security guards?â
Aaron felt the strangeness of the matter and couldnât help but tear up with laughter.
Seeing Aaronâs laughing, everyone around had to follow.
In fact, everyone knows what Kid means. Itâs not that there is really any performance that requires to be secured, but when Kid is ready to steal the nuclear bomb, GCPD should not remain idle.
The super-criminals from the Arkham Asylum need to be arrested one by one, and the chaos left by the three major gangs also needs a strong team to deal with.
As the backbone of Gotham City, the GCPD can provide more combat forces than the army in many cases.
So in Mathisonâs mind, this powerful team is naturally⊠not the GCPD!
In Gothamâs current situation, once he steals the nuclear bomb, he will indeed solve most of the problems.
But new problems will follow.
The way the Department of Defense will react will be the most difficult part for Mathison to control.
Now, everyone knows that Bane has a nuclear bomb in his hand, enough to destroy the entirety of Gotham in an instant, and the guys in the Department of Defense who will only waste taxpayersâ money have no means to deal with this situation.
They canât fight and they canât negotiate.
Baneâs name is now probably on the top of the must-kill list of the Ministry of Defense, and Bin Laden now was far less threatening than Bane.
If this group of people knew that the nuclear bomb in Baneâs hand was gone, how would they deal with Gotham?
Mathison didnât know.
Will they send their armies in? A missile purge? A nuclear purification?
God knows what those people in the Ministry of Defense think.
Mathison couldnât understand them and didnât want to understand them anyway.
Bane, the Penguin, Black Mask, must be eliminated in a short time, preferably before the Pentagon has discussed a solution.
But Mathison is not planning to participate in these matters, he is only responsible for completing the stealing part, nothing else.
Heâs not a superhero either.
He is a criminal, being a villain is his part of the job!
Against Bane, he is, at best, a thief. It does not mean that he is on the side of the police or a hero.
Professional things have professional people to take care of.
Relying on the GCPD alone is definitely not enough. Aside from the nuclear bombs situation, incidents such as urban gang chaos wouldnât be faced by large firepower from the police.
Additionally, conventional army drive-in also needs a long dispatch time.
And itâs not necessarily that they are going to beat the Arkham gang afterward.
He didnât know where Tony was. Itâs been three days since Mathison said he wanted to steal a nuclear bomb and then sneaked into Gotham.
Strangely, Iron Man didnât come to Gotham.
In the end, and after thinking about it, Mathison concluded the forces that can be trusted are S.H.I.E.LD.
Nick Fury has a dark face and a darker heart.
He doesnât necessarily care what happens to Gotham city, but the Scarecrowâs fear gas, the laughing gas that the Joker might have left to Harley Quinn, the superhuman marksmanship of Deadshot, the super-soldier serum injected by Deathstroke, and even venom in Baneâs back gas tankâŠ
Fury must be very interested in these things.
When the nuclear bomb crisis will come to end, S.H.I.E.L.D. will definitely intervene in the chaos the Gotham gang caused for the first time.
Mathison doesnât know if the construction of the Helicarrier is completed by now, but even if they are short on Quinjets, they should have configured a way to make it ready soon by this time.
It is estimated that as soon as Mathison steals the nuclear bomb, the S.H.I.E.L.D.âs Quinjets will manage their way into the Knights Arena.
âPhantom Kid has left, so letâs go as soon as possible before Baneâs people arrive at Midtown Island.â
Blake suggested.
Everyone looked at Gordon, waiting for him to give orders.
âWell, the rookie is right, letâs go.â
Gordon smiled at his long-lost subordinates and gave the order to retreat.
When they came to the coast of Midtown Island, they happened to meet Barbara and others who were late.
When the father and daughter met, their eyes were full of tears.
This was the complete assembly of the large group, and the entire GCPD headed to Old Town via speedboat.
Thatâs right, Gordon took them back to the police headquarters.
No matter how much loss it suffered, how much damage it suffered, the GCPD will always be the GCPD, Gothamâs last frontier.
Gordon will never give up his headquarters.
Just because the GCPD was attacked, he abandoned their headquarters and ran into the abandoned dirty sewers to survive. Moreover, after ensuring their survival, he hid for more than ten days and did nothing. It almost seemed that he became desperate and gave up struggling completely.
That was, of course, what fake Gordon did; the real Gordon couldnât do anything like that.
«Sure enough, this is our chief!»
Following Gordon, every GCPD police officer had such an idea in their mind.
âHowever, I have been to the GCPD before, and the arsenal there has now been emptied by Bane, and we will not have enough supplies even if we go back there.â
âAnd the GCPD is too conspicuous. Bane, Black Mask, and the Penguin are all trying to annihilate us, and itâs not good for us to go back there.â
âIf they surround Gotham Police Station again, we may not even be able to escape.â
On the way, Barbara said worriedly that it is good to have a firm will and fighting spirit, but the current situation told her not to be too optimistic.
âDonât worry about weapons.â
Gordon smiled confidently.
âA friend told me about a good place where we can get a lot of weapons and equipment without worrying about being discovered by Bane and the others.â
âAs for Bane, when he tries to besiege the GCPD againâŠâ
Gordon paused, his eyes firm.
âNo, I wonât wait for them to besiege the GCPD, I decided to declare war on all gangsters in Gotham now!â
