DC: A Cop in Gotham

Chapter 5: Edward and Black Mask

————————————————————

[Knock down 3 masked thugs and get 3 points. ]

Dean picked up the sword on the ground. Kevin first observed the surrounding area to make sure there were no other accomplices before he came over and put the guns on the ground in plastic bags. These were all evidence.

"Well, now you have a clear understanding of the chaos in Gotham. This is just the appetizer."

Dean's eyes were shining: "That's really too bad. When I think about the more dangerous enemies behind me, my hands start to tremble."

If this was just a good start, Dean didn't dare to think about what would happen next. He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth. He really made the right choice to come to Gotham. On the first day, he had accumulated thirteen points. In Central City, such opportunities might not arise in a month.

He once thought about using donations to obtain points, but unfortunately the system has limitations. It does not require Dean to do good deeds in person, but depends on the target and the timing. For example, if you treat The Flash to a meal when he is hungry, you will be rewarded with points, but not in normal times. Theoretically, if Dean had enough financial resources to support the financial expenses of the entire Justice League, he would be able to earn a steady stream of points.

It's a pity that Dean's surname is not Wayne, and he has both parents. This kind of operation can only be imagined in dreams.

Kevin gave preliminary hemostatic bandages to the two masked men who had been shot and fell to the ground to prevent them from bleeding to death. The road was still blocked and the ambulance could not get in.

"Tell me who your boss is and why you want to block the road."

The masked man just looked at Kevin indifferently and said nothing.

"We've got ways to deal with a tough-talking bastard like you." Kevin nuzzled: "Dean, let me demonstrate it to you."

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome. I can do this with my Hoshikudaki."

Dean slowly drew the sword and made an downward thrusting movement, causing the man to subconsciously tighten his legs.

"Black Mask! He didn't tell us why Black Mask asked us to do this!"

The man spoke without pausing, and a set of high-speed words made Kevin puzzled. Looking at Dean's delicate face, he thought to himself whether he had become fat or rusty recently, and his intimidation power was not as good as that of the young man who had just joined the job.

"But Black Mask's men all wear masks." This is not the first time Kevin has dealt with Black Mask, and he is very familiar with his criminal style.

"We live in this neighborhood. Black Mask hired us temporarily. Poor Tommy, he is dying." The man sobbed and covered his face as he cried.

"I've bandaged him, he won't die for a while." Kevin felt that he couldn't get any more information out of his mouth, so he was going to escort him to the car first.

"Wait a minute," Dean stopped Kevin, "Aside from Black Mask, have you seen anyone of note coming or going in the past two days?"

The man quickly recalled it and his eyes widened suddenly: "Yes! The legendary Poison Ivy, I saw her the day before yesterday. A few people who were not afraid of death went to talk to her and they were buried in the ground on the spot."

Dean and Kevin looked at each other. Another super villain appeared. It seemed that this matter was not a small deal.

Moving the remaining three unconscious people into the car made the already small space even worse.

Fortunately, the engine was not damaged and Kevin successfully ignited it. He planned to send the person to the hospital first. He looked up and saw Dean who was not in the car. He sighed, took off his body armor and threw it to him.

[Name: Kevin's Body Armor]

[Type: Armor]

[Quality:☆]

[Defense: Weak]

[Attribute: Refraction]

[Special effects: none]

[Description: A worn-out body armor that represents the broken protective heart of the old policeman. ]

"Be careful, I don't want to see young people off."

In less than a day of contact, Kevin has figured out Dean's character and knows that nothing can persuade him, so he might as well wish him good luck.

Dean put on a body armor that didn't fit, nodded to Kevin and left.

Dean's gun was not equipped with a silencer, and the sound of gunfire echoed across the sky. He was ready to fight one against many, but the street was quiet, and there were no people in black masks.

Except that the street was unusually quiet, Dean didn't notice anything unusual. This was very abnormal. What was the point of the black mask asking people to block the road?

Suddenly the ground shook. Dean held his hands on the ground to steady himself. Everything around him was shaking. There were several cracks in the road. Fortunately, the shaking only lasted for about ten seconds and ended.

The earthquake was caused by the black mask. Many thoughts flashed through Dean's mind. A fire hydrant exploded not far away, and water jets sprayed out for more than ten meters.

This was just the beginning. More and more water pipes burst, and groundwater spewed out of cracks in the ground, creating a curtain of water.

Dean put the pistol into the system space to avoid moisture. A blue figure flashed behind him. Dean looked back, but saw nothing.

"We actually met again, boy."

Captain Edward stood in the water curtain, with a little surprise on his old cheeks. He originally thought that he and this young man would never be involved again after the ship parted, but he didn't expect to meet again so soon.

"Mr. Edward, let me not go into what happened before. Was the earthquake just caused by you?"

To be able to escape safely from the police siege with the crew, Edward must be no ordinary person.

Edward looked around, as if searching for something: "I don't seem to need to answer your question. I wasn't expecting to see you so soon. Seems fate has a sense of humor."

Edward opened his arms, and the surrounding water flow gathered into a strong water column. Dean was unable to dodge and was knocked away by the water column that came at a rapid speed.

"Ahem, it feels like being hit by a truck." Two ribs were broken in just one encounter. This was even when he was wearing a bulletproof vest. Dean was now aware of the gap between himself and Edward, but didn't expect it to be like this. Still he did not let go of Hoshikudaki in his hand, and the blade flickered. The special effect of Samurai Soul have been triggered.

At this moment, he was possessed by a warrior.

"I'm asking you a question, stop here"

Dean leaned against Hoshikudaki on his hand, holding his ribs with his other hand. A sudden, chilling aura enveloped him..

Feeling the completely different aura from Dean, Edward turned his eyes to Lake Toya: "A magic prop? It seems you are not an ordinary policeman."

"Shut up," Dean stared at his eyes and said in a feeble tone: "I suspect that you are related to the destruction of underground pipelines. Please cooperate obediently and come back to the police station with me! "

"Don't overestimate your own capabilities."

Edward didn't take Dean seriously. He raised his hand and released a jet of water. Dean's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he swiped his sword horizontally, breaking the jet of water aimed at him

Using a splash of water to obscure Edward's vision. He thrust the sword diagonally upward and hit the vital point with precision.

Edward, who had always maintained a cold demeanor, stared with splitting eyes. No man could bear this kind of pain. Edward couldn't even stand, let alone keep calm and continue to cast spells.

Dean's idea was very Gintama, a magician, right? He would directly give you a physical ban on demons, and if you had the guts to continue fighting despite the pain, Dean will neat you up until you fell to the ground.

"I ask you again, does this accident have anything to do with you? Why don't you say anything? Very good, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court."

After cleaning the tip of Hoshikudaki, Dean took out the handcuffs and prepared to put them on Edward.

The severe pain made Edward's mind go blank. He had just regained his ability to think and really wanted to curse, but now he couldn't even speak.

A sharp stinging sensation came from his back. Dean's eyes narrowed and he rolled to the side.

"Avoid it. Do all super-powered freaks like to act in groups now?"

Black Mask appeared with a group of "masks" under him. After seeing Dean successfully dodge the bullets he fired, he became interested in him.

His marksmanship is not bad. Although he is still far from being a "smart shot", few people can dodge him. Moreover, Dean's back is turned to him. Does he have eyes behind his back?

Black Mask raised his hand and fired another shot. Dean's pupils shrank into sharp points, and he used Hoshikudaki to deflect the bullet.

"Hmph, there are so many people, it seems I can't leave without using my secret technique."

'Secret technique?'

Black Mask's eyes were slightly stern. He had not seen the battle between Dean and Edward, but he was sure that Dean was dangerous. After all, Dean had defeated Edward, and that man single-handedly defeated half of his men.

If Edward hadn't caused trouble, he wouldn't have had to block the streets. The less people could see what was going on here, the better.

Dean paced slowly to adjust his position, Hoshikudaki pressed down a little bit, the black mask looked solemnly, is it coming?

The next second, Dean turned around and ducked into the alley next to him.

Secret technique: Nigerundayo!

The person on the other side has a submachine gun, and the black mask can also control his mind. It is impossible to defeat him even if he thinks about it. Dean is not stupid, and his bluff is all for the purpose of running away at this moment.

When Black Mask came to his senses and led people to chase him to the alley, all that was left was a fleeting figure of his back.

Just when Black Mask attracted all of Dean's attention, Edward, who was lying on the ground like a dead man, suddenly stood up and dove into the cracks in the ground, leaving Black Mask and his men looking at each other.
