Chapter 61 : J. Jonah Jameson and Eddie Brock

"You're stronger than you think you are."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the morning sun came again, Gotham City once again rushed to the top of the search list in the United States after a few days. There is no other reason. Bruce Wayne, who is the richest man in Gotham City and occupies the top three positions on the American Rich List, suffered a terrorist attack on his manor. The video has been circulated on the Internet. What a dazzling beam of light, followed by the Wayne Manor turned into a large pit.

At the same time, the Hawaiian side announced that Bruce had not appeared with them. Affected by this, the news of whether Bruce Wayne was alive or dead also rushed into the hot search and became the focus of national discussion. If he died, even his son Damian would die. Given that he has no other immediate family members, who would inherit his hundreds of billions of dollars in personal wealth? Who controls the trillions of dollars of wealth of the entire Wayne Group?

Because of this, the Wayne Group's stock price suffered a heavy blow after the market opened, and it fell to the limit in just a few minutes. A large number of venture capital companies, Wall Street funds, and retail investors began to sell stocks.

At the same time, another piece of news about Gotham City also rushed to the top ten in search. That is, Boris, Johnson, Longbottom, Washington, and other wealthy families in Gotham City have been exposed. The crimes of trafficking in drug pins, smuggling of firearms, human trafficking, bribery, election manipulation, etc. were listed in a very detailed manner, and they were directly posted on the Internet. There was a public witness that could not be eliminated if they wanted to. The Gotham Police Department dispatched people overnight.

According to sources within the police department, the phone number of Sheriff James Gordon was blown up. You must know that in the United States, the energy of the rich is very scary. But one night passed. According to the news released, the rich people were still locked up in the police station. Not even one person was released on bail. Many netizens had to admire the courage of the sheriff. He must have withstood the pressure of a mountain.

Just when the whole U.S. was eating Gotham melons, other media seriously reported the incident, neither black nor neutral. Only Daily Bugle once again acted as a demon, blaming the cause of the Big explosion on the dangerous experiment conducted privately by the Wayne Group. They put forward the hypothesis that there is a secret experiment under Wayne Manor. It was the failure of the experiment that caused this big explosion, and once again, the judicial department called on to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the Wayne Group. While this report occupies the entire front page, the writer's name was: Eddie Brock.

Wayne No. 3 Manor is on the outskirts of Gotham City. Jude wakes up from the big bed, yawns, shakes his dizzy head, and walks out of the bed. He drew the curtains; bright sunlight came in, looked at the time, and found that it was already noon. He first took a hot bath to get rid of the alcohol on his body, then picked up the unfinished whiskey and finished a suffocation. After a hiccup, he officially walked out of the room.

Butler Alfred saw him come out and reminded him very intimately: "Mr. Herbert, are you going to rest? Please tell me what you need to eat. I am still very knowledgeable about some dishes."

"I'm not a picky eater. By the way, Bruce, are they back?"

Alfred smiled and said, "They have come back. In the early hours of this morning, you can check your phone. Some news has been uploaded on the Internet."

At this time, Ivy returned from the swim; her slightly plump but very predictable figure is undoubtedly outlined in the bikini. Seeing Jude waking up, she immediately ran over excitedly, the two melons dangling up and down.

"Look at Bruce and their recording last night."

Ivy came up suddenly, and the hemisphere hit Jude's arm hard, hitting the phone in his face. At a glance, Jude smiled and said, "It seems that the Court of Owl is going to be badly injured now, but how did Bruce confirm the other members of the court?"

"It's very simple: torture a confession! Those who are rich can't bear this. It's okay to let them look at others in pain, but it's okay to let them bear the pain. I just use a little trick, and they will vomit everything they know. Out."

The red hood said with a cold snort, and beside him, other members of the bat family also appeared one after another.

"So, has the Court of Owl been wiped out?"

Bruce frowned and said in a deep voice, "No, these captured people are by no means the core members, and they don't even know who the core members of the owls are."

"But losing more than a dozen at a time, I believe, that will be enough to damage the court. At least in a short time, they will not be able to run out and do evil again."

Jude said, "This is already unexpected; after all, it is almost impossible to uproot the owl."

"The Court of Owls is part of Gotham. Just like Gotham has new crimes every day, the Owl is constantly expanding its wings, unless you can destroy Gotham."

After Jude finished speaking, the members of the Bat-family suddenly thought about the fate of Gotham City. Their hearts were struggling, but they still chose to persist after the struggle.

Realizing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Ivy quickly changed the subject.

"Did you not look at your cell phone? Everyone thought Bruce was dead. Now Wayne Group's stock has dropped its limit. You should hurry up to hold a press conference to show up, otherwise things will get worse."

Who knows? Bruce smiled instead: "I am not in a hurry, and it is too early to show up and clarify now. Two days will be more appropriate."

"Your assets are shrinking. I see many institutions have said that since the opening of the stock market, Wayne Group has lost more than 160 billion, and it is still being lost."

At this time, Alfred came over, put the plate neatly on the table, and smiled: "Miss Ivy, this is a game."

"Wayne Group's stock fell because the outside world thought that the young master was dead, but as long as the young master reappears, the stock price will immediately rebound and even rush to a higher position than before."

"And those fund companies that sold at low prices, their stocks were absorbed into the hands of the young master; that is to say, the young master took advantage of this incident to greatly increase the shareholding ratio, and the price was far lower than normal."

"Yes, plus the dozen or so families that fell. I'm afraid that their company has already been taken by the Wayne Group." Jude added.

Ivy only understood it at this time and couldn't help sighing: "What a fucking capitalist, I finally understand why the money is flowing into your hands."

"And this is not over yet," Alfred said: "Master, recently the Daily Bugle has frequently discredited the Wayne Group. You have never been able to manage this matter. So I decided on your behalf and bought this newspaper. And let the boss and editor-in-chief get out."

Bruce didn't care about it. The acquisition of a newspaper was nothing but a big deal. He casually asked, "What's the name of the boss and the editor?"

"J. Jonah Jameson and Eddie Brock."
