American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander

Chapter 78 Because he is kind!



In Wayne Manor, when Downton came out of the bathroom, he saw Alfred waiting in front of him with his phone.

"Master Downton, you just received a call. Because the incoming call number does not have a contact person, I don't know whether I should answer it."

After the voice fell, Alfred handed the phone to Downton like a normal butler.

Downton took the phone, nodded to Alfred, and then called back the number that had just called.

After a while, the call was connected, and the person on the other end asked softly.

"This is Victor Zsasz, Don, is that you?"

"It's me, but how do you have my number? Liv gave it to you?

Besides, why did you call me? Has the old man Falcone run away?"

Downton said with a smile, then picked up the phone and went to the bedroom, sitting on the bed and keeping the call.

On the other side of the phone, Victor Zsasz was silent for a moment, and then responded.

"Boss Falcone has left Gotham. From now on, there will be no Falcone family in Gotham.

Now I am just a member of the Mafia, and you are undoubtedly the best candidate to inherit the Mafia power.

Don, you promised me this morning that I should be able to call you BOSS now, so you see..."

"Haha, what can I see? I think Falcone is really rational.

If I were replaced with his identity and let me, who has lost my talent, face an opponent like me, I would also try my best to run away as soon as possible!"

After a teasing, Don continued to say to Victor who was waiting.

"Since Old Deng ran away, I should show up. How about this, you and Liv come to Downton Abbey to pick me up immediately!"

"Ah this..."

Hearing Donton's order, Victor stared forward with a bitter face, and his eyes were like a knife nailing Ozwald fiercely.

Facing Zsasz's eyes, Ozwald swallowed hard.

At the same time, Zsasz continued to talk to Downton.

"This... Boss, Liv is receiving emergency treatment. The situation here is a bit special. Maybe you need to come and handle it yourself."

"Fuck?"

Hearing this, Downton couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and saw him smiling and asking Zsasz with interest.

"I guessed that you would be very lively tonight, but I didn't expect that you would be so lively that even Liv, a middleman who only stayed in the Iceberg Club, would be rescued!

No way, you can't be so bad, right? Once Falcone ran away, you even took down the Iceberg Club's base camp?

Interesting, bring someone to pick me up yourself, and wait for me to go over and see what's going on!"

"Okay, Boss, but where should I pick you up? Downton Abbey... I don't seem to have heard of this place in Gotham."

Seeing that Downton didn't look angry, Zsasz breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask.

Facing Zsasz's question, Downton glanced at Alfred and then responded with a smile.

"You know Wayne Manor, Zsasz."

"Of course, so your manor is near there?"

"No, I mean, Wayne Manor has become Downton Manor, you will know if you come to pick me up directly!"

The moment Downton's voice fell, Victor Zsasz suddenly froze.

He was holding the phone with his eyes wide open, and after thinking hard for a long time, he shouted to Downton in disbelief.

"How could Wayne Manor become Downton Manor? Isn't this generation of Wayne back? How could he give up his ancestral manor to others?!!"

"Why do you think he gave the manor to me?

Because he is kind!!!

Why do you have so many questions? Hurry up and come and pick me up!"

Downton hung up the phone angrily, and then asked Alfred, who was expressionless.

"Afu, let me ask you something. How tall is Bruce?"

"Master Bruce is 188cm tall, sir."

"Oh, this guy is only one centimeter taller than me, so I should have no problem wearing his clothes.

Find me a suitable set of clothes. You know what style Victor Zsasz and his gang of mafia like, right? Just find that kind."

"No problem."

Afu nodded and went to the cloakroom to search.

Not long after, Downton, dressed in a British old-fashioned gentleman style, appeared in front of Alfred.

Looking at Downton at this moment, Afu looked at Downton's hair with dissatisfaction.

"Master, your hairstyle looks too frivolous. If you allow me, I can ask the barber to come and trim it for you."

"No problem, of course I allow it, Alfred, don't be so polite, just treat me as Bruce.

Believe me, I'm not as worrying as you think. In my own eyes, I'm at least a good person, what do you think?"

Donton patted Alfred's arm with a smile, and let Alfred call the barber who was resting in the manor.

Although the barber was puzzled as to why the manor had changed its owner, he would not say anything more when his salary had not changed for the time being.

Not long after, Zsasz drove to the gate of Wayne Manor.

As soon as his car approached, the gate of the manor opened automatically, and Alfred waited in front of Zsasz with a formal smile.

Zasz certainly knew this old man. During the seven years when Bruce Wayne was missing, this old man had made quite a splash in Gotham.

You know, during those seven years, Bruce was declared dead by Gotham City Hall more than once, and every time the news of his death came out, it would cause a bloody storm in the capital world of Gotham.

Other old Gotham families, led by the Kane family, launched waves of attacks on the Wayne family during that period, trying to get enough fat from the Wayne family.

But what was the result?

The result was that even the head of the Kane family was severely beaten up by the old man Alfred...

Before Alfred personally went to the door and beat up the head of the Kane family, Gotham had changed three mayors, two police chiefs, and two-thirds of the Gotham council members were replaced!

Although it is unpleasant to hear, when Alfred relied on Wayne's power to rule Gotham, Gotham at this stage was much safer than the Batman era.

In short, whether in politics or business, or even in personal force, Alfred is a top talent. Even Falcone will show enough respect to Alfred when he sees him!

So at this moment, Victor Zsasz also took the initiative to get out of the car and nodded solemnly to Alfred.

"The development of things is really unexpected to me, Mr. Pennyworth."

"Just call me Alfred, Mr. Zsasz, I am just the butler of Mr. Downton now."

Alfred responded softly, and led Zsasz to the main castle.

As he walked, Victor took a deep breath.

"I still can't believe that you would hand over Wayne Manor so easily!

Has Bruce Wayne been killed by Don?

Or is it because the boss didn't touch him that people like you are so obedient?"

As the voice fell, Victor's mood suddenly cheered up a little.

Although Falcone is a mountain towering in Gotham, he is still a bit lame compared to the boss of Downton who is far beyond ordinary people.

Although he changed his boss inexplicably, his future career has the hope of continuing to grow and become stronger!

While Zas was slightly excited, Ah Fu responded to him without turning his head.

"Before this, I didn't dare to believe that there would be someone like Downton in the world.

But we all saw that once he appeared, few people could refuse his request, at least the current Wayne family is far from being able to do so."
