In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 103: Gotham Longzhong Pair (Part 1)

"The Days of Being a Spiritual Mentor in Meiman"

"...what I want to say is, that's it, as you can see, everyone knows what I used to be..."

On the counter of a bar, in an old TV screen, Roy Brown took out a violin case from under the table and put it on the table, and then opened the lid with a click, revealing a gun inside.

"I'm from Chicago, yes, I used to be a gang leader there, that is, a member of the Mafia you know..."

"This is my weapon, see? This beautiful little baby, you call him a typewriter, but I like to call him Huff..."

"What do you think this is? What do you think I'm doing now? Do you think I should be sitting in the mayor's office drinking tea? I want to tell you that this is not a threat..."

"I was born and raised in Chicago, so were my father and grandfather. At that time they said that this place would become the second gold mountain. Many people came here. They all had a dream of getting rich. Many big companies, big machines, All night long..."

"But these people are gone, leaving behind a fire and a pile of pollution. After Prohibition, what is left of my hometown? A mess!"

"The riots are rampant and everyone is in danger, what can we do? We must take up guns to defend ourselves..."

"So you say, oh, Chicago is full of gangsters, it's a **** of a place, and I'm going to tell you right now, it's a hell! A **** that can eat you **** alive!"

"When those immigrants killed people here with guns, the governor would only say that everyone should calm down. After the gang problem is rampant, the police station? Ha! Are you still ashamed to mention this?"

"I would like to ask you, where does the funding for the police department go? Why does Chicago have the largest police training school in the East, but no new policeman wants to stay here?"

"Can you believe it? A year ago, there was only one gun for every three police officers in Chicago, and some support staff could only use sticks to protect themselves!"

"This is what you call the law and order bill?"

"Why did those **** public housing streets appear? Because there are too many unemployed people!"

"Why are they out of a job? Who is to blame for the economy? What did those old men sitting on Capitol Hill like fat pigs do? He left the people of Chicago to fend for themselves! That's all!"

"Now you send a telegram to condemn, saying that Gotham made a gangster mayor, I want to tell you, I will be the best mayor here!"

"Because I am a member of the gang. If you don't solve our economic problems for us, then we will solve it ourselves. I can do whatever I want!"

"I know, some people say Gotham is worse than Chicago, oh, who else? Miami? Bludhaven? Imperial City?"

"Yes, our eastern cities are a **** in their eyes, but they just want to watch this **** in front of them, have we got any help from them?"

Roy directly took the Chicago typewriter out of the box in advance, then slammed it heavily on the table and said: "Don't expect me to listen to your nonsense, those words of being a good baby, you go and the West Coast Let's talk about it!"

"The east is like this. There is only one thing I have to do here. Take a gun and kill everyone who stops me. Then, lead everyone to get rich together. I don't care if they are gangsters or other people. Who is it!"

After the speech, the TV screen on the bar flickered twice, and the bartender patted the TV and said, "Well, it seems that the old guy is broken again."

The guests complained a few times in dissatisfaction. A **** man sat on the side of the bar with a wine glass and said: "It seems that the new mayor is not bad. He is a tough guy. He said what I wanted to say..."

"I was born in Gotham, yeah, two blocks away, you know, our boss took me out once before, where was it? Oh yeah, Metropolis, people listen Saying that I am from Gotham is like seeing something dirty..."

"If you want me to say, this mayor is quite special. The one who used to sit in the mayor's office, faced the reprimands of those reporters, he would only be a turtle."

Then he sneered and said: "Then he died, he was in a car accident more than a month ago..."

"Oh, it's him, I don't even remember his name, but I heard that he is the second longest living mayor of Gotham."

"I think this one will definitely break the record now. He is the godson of the old godfather, and he is much better than those soft mayors."

The black man also said: "What he said is very reasonable. Whether it's Gotham or Chicago, this place was like this before we were born. We live here and want to make more money. What's wrong? They All day long, he will only call us bastards..."

"If I could be like that group of people in the metropolis, who went to school, went to college, and graduated wearing a suit and tie, and blowing the air conditioner in the office, I would be out of my mind and want to be a gangster and get shot !”

"He was just talking." Another black man came over, ordered a glass of wine and said, "Could it be possible that he can really be a mayor and lead all the gangsters to make money together? How can there be such a mayor? Even if If those reporters don't scold him, the state government won't agree..."

"I don't ask him to bring us money, I just hope he won't be like those mayors in the past, who will come up with civilized city regulations, anti-gang law and order laws, and talk about it every day..."

"Damn the anti-gang law and order law, is there anyone in Gotham who is not a gangster? Why didn't he just say that the city was flattened?"

Everyone in the tavern burst into laughter, and some even gestured for a nuclear bomb to go off.

The next day, Roy's speech hit the headlines of major newspapers on the East Coast and even across the United States. You must know that this is no longer the era of Prohibition. Most of the culture is not brilliant.

At this time, a mayor jumped out and said, I am a gangster, I am a mafia, I not only admit that I am a gangster, but also say that I want to lead the gangster to make money, of course it will cause criticism from major media.

The Metropolitan Daily commented that this was a "appalling retrogression of the times", and the Global Times said Roy was a "vulgar and brutal villain". It resounded throughout the United States.

However, what is a little strange is that several cities tacitly did not speak out about this, and some of their leaders even deliberately suppressed public opinion, showing an ambiguous attitude, including Luo Those East Coast cities I mentioned.

Actually, every city with illegal industry as its pillar industry knows that what Roy is telling is the truth.

The history of these cities is similar, and the reasons for the emergence of gangs are also historical issues, either to fight against foreign immigrants, or the legacy of the Prohibition period.

Most people in these cities feel that Roy's scolding is very relieved, because no matter who it is, they only order and supervise every day. Apart from verbal condemnation and warnings, there is no actual action to improve the conditions of these cities. bad situation.

Most people will only say with a sense of superiority that the people born in these places are inherently bad, and it is their evil that created these crime capitals.

But in fact, the economic situation is the root cause of all this. Except for Gotham, which is a little special, most of the other gangster cities have become what they are now because of the high unemployment rate brought about by the economic recession.

People in this environment are born gangsters. If you say you want to use the law and order law to eliminate gangsters, it would be better to bomb these cities with a nuclear bomb.

In these crime capitals headed by Gotham, many gang leaders are very dissatisfied. It is not easy for us to put our heads on our belts and exchange our lives for money. Scolding all day, the investment made is even more afraid to come, and the economy is even more depressed.

In the past, the gangsters also felt that they were in the wrong. No matter what, the illegal industry really couldn't get on the table.

But now, Roy's speech reminded them of one thing, these cities have become what they are now, and they are not the ones who bear the main responsibility.

Leaving aside those reasons left over from history, the inaction of the state government and Congress is also the main reason why the status quo has not improved.

I was born here, I have nowhere to go, I join gangs, you say I'm a villain, I'm in the light, but those verbal reprimands and policing bills don't give me bread, I don't join gangs, etc. Starve to death?

Then why can't I be rotten? I suck!

The most important function of Roy's speech is to let these gangsters who have not read much have a relatively concentrated guiding ideology, that is, it is not my fault that I am so bad now, but the world. wrong.

Actually, if you look at the current situation of Gotham, there is nothing wrong with this kind of thinking. People born in Gotham can’t choose their birthplace~IndoMTL.com~ And once you are born in Gotham, you can You can only choose this kind of **** mode of life, otherwise you won't be able to survive.

Geniuses and supermen are a minority in this world, and ordinary people who are powerless to change classes are the majority.

In fact, those who condemned may not be ignorant of this truth, but Roy put this matter on the table, pointing out sharply that it was because of the inaction of various forces and the weakness of violent law enforcement agencies that the entire United States was created. The cities with the highest crime rates are undoubtedly like pulling off the last fig leaf for those politicians and gentlemen.

This speech naturally caused a great backlash in the orderly society. The state government members who were bought by the Wayne Group were somewhat unable to withstand the pressure. The state government ordered the mayor of Gotham City to suspend the review and planned to reopen The mayoral election process.

In the past, this process was just a formality in Gotham. Basically, Wayne said whoever does it can do it, and the gangsters don't care, because the mayor of Gotham City actually has no rights, and the gangsters will not listen to the mayor. , it's the same for everyone.

But the state government felt that Roy's troubles were too outrageous this time. Even the federal government sent a warning.

So they plan to re-run the mayoral election.

This is the method they often use to quell similar troubles. As long as the election process is restarted and the person who has done something wrong is defeated in the new election to prove that his views are not what the people want, the public will naturally be quelled. Part of the public opinion and the anger from the superiors, in the past experience, this trick can be said to be tried and tested.

Until the members of the state government saw that the number one candidate among the new candidates was called Carmine Falcone.
