Chapter 3270
"Oh? Who is that?" Shiler asked.
"A... an evil criminal." Gordon was obviously hesitant when saying this, but he still continued, "To be precise, it's a smart criminal, a great enemy of the Pale Knight."
"Isn't the great enemy of the Pale Knight Batman?"
Gordon shook his head and said: "Although the Pale Knight once sent Batman to prison, their positions are consistent, that is, they both hope Cat Getan will become better. After the misunderstanding was cleared, they can't be called enemies even more."
"Then this Mr. Cobblepot..."
"He is a very pure egoist. As long as he can plan benefits for himself, he dares to do anything. This has led to him being the most powerful running dog of Cat Getan's elite for a long time."
Gordon fell into memories. He thought while saying: "In the early days of the Napier Act, the biggest resistance encountered came from this evil genius. He thought of many ways to stop the implementation of the act."
"And then?"
"It can be said that both sides suffered losses." Gordon showed pain again, and he said, "More than half of the current terrible economic situation of Cat Getan City is caused by this guy, and he obviously didn't fight the Pale Knight. Now he should be locked up alone by the Pale Knight."
"With all due respect, Commissioner, you don't look like someone who would recommend this kind of person, unless he really has very amazing talent."
"How to say?" Gordon's tone was actually a bit complicated, and he said, "If Cobblepot could use his talent on the right path, I'm afraid he would be stronger than the Pale Knight. But unfortunately, he is too evil."
"Talk specifically about his evil."
"I said, he is an extreme egoist, that is, for his own interests, he can do anything terrible, including but not limited to murder, arson, manufacturing terrorist attacks..."
Shiler revealed an expression of understanding. After thinking for a while, he said: "Could it be a problem with Cat Getan's environment?"
Gordon was obviously stunned for a moment, then said somewhat shamefully: "He might indeed lack correct guidance on the road of growth, which has a certain relationship with the city atmosphere."
"No, you misunderstood, I didn't mean this." Shiler shook his head, then continued to ask, "Could it be that his kind of evil wouldn't be evil if placed somewhere else?"
"But where would it not be evil?" Gordon really couldn't figure it out, and he said, "This kind of person with cruel means, no matter where he is placed, is a bad person, right?"
"Yes, he is a bad boy, but you might also look at that group of politicians too well." Shiler also looked into Gordon's eyes and said, "Do you think the congressmen of the State Legislature don't know how much improvement the GTO has brought to Cat Getan? Do you think they don't know how many ordinary people this anti-terrorism team has saved?"
"Do you think they don't know how many people will die if this team is dissolved? No, they know better than anyone, but they will still dissolve the GTO just to vent their anger."
"Do you think this doesn't count as murder?"
Gordon was speechless.
"We should let the wicked deal with the wicked, instead of letting the good people with tied hands and feet send themselves to the door to be beaten, and then let the wicked who have freed their hands go to harm more good people."
Gordon was a bit dizzy from his detour, but he actually felt that what Shiler said made sense.
He actually also hated that group of politicians, who only cared about their own face and didn't consider the survival problem of ordinary people at all. If it were to be discussed, this might be much more evil than simple murder.
He also hated Penguin's cruel means. He kept causing trouble and harming others, and after causing a pile of trouble for everyone, he hid himself beautifully.
Since this is the case, why not let these two sides harm each other?
In this way, both sides have something to do, and real good people, such as the Pale Knight and Batman, don't have to spend energy on them, but can free their hands to do more good things.
But Gordon was still a bit worried, so he asked: "But if Penguin is allowed to obtain status, won't he turn around and deal with Cat Getan?"
"What kind of status do you think he can obtain?"
"Being a congressman is still not a problem." Gordon said very conservatively, "Perhaps he can master quite a bit of discourse power."
Shiler shook his head and said: "You said he is a genius, and he is very greedy. Do you think a congressman of a state can satisfy him?"
"Uh, does he still want to enter Congress?"
"Why not?"
"That's true, he is not old." Gordon nodded and said, "Not very sure about his specific date of birth, but he should be less than 40 years old this year."
"Then it's too young." Shiler said, "A state congressman cannot be his end point, he must enter Congress."
Gordon felt a headache, and he said: "Is it really good to let such a person enter Congress? Can the Federation still have good days?"
"Birds of a feather flock together. If he really succeeds in entering, it means that the Congress is full of people like him."
"What he said makes sense, he was speechless." Gordon thought.
"Once he enters Congress and wants to impact a higher position, then the state we are in, the city we are in, is his iron-clad state, is his biggest ticket warehouse. Does he still dare to treat this place badly?"
"Although it is said so, I haven't seen the current president treat his hometown very well." Gordon said.
"But at least it's not bad, and even less likely to fall into the well." Shiler said, "We push him to the top, originally it was an expedient measure. It's best if he is willing to return the favor later. If he is not willing, he won't take such a big risk to stab his own heart. At most, he will just leave it alone, and it won't be worse."
Gordon had to admit that what Shiler said was right. Penguin is a person who only cares about interests, he won't do things that betray interests. If he wants to go further on his political path, his hometown New Jersey will definitely provide him with the most powerful support, he doesn't need to stab himself.
Gordon suddenly felt that this kind of person purely oriented by interests also has some benefits. They don't deal with things according to their personal likes and dislikes. One second they are enemies, the next second they are friends, they won't feel sorry at all.
Even if the Pale Knight defeated him and locked him up, as long as the Pale Knight can sit firmly in the position of mayor, then for the sake of his own official career, Penguin will definitely reach the most stable political alliance with him, and won't care about any old grudges at all.
Then he looked at Shiler again. Doesn't this guy really know Penguin? Why is there just such a suitable person to complete his plan?
"You said the Mayor locked Penguin up?"
"Yes, but not locked in prison, it should be a private house. Based on my understanding of Napier, he won't abuse him, he should just find someone to watch him."
"Then do you have the confidence to convince the Mayor? I'm worried that he might refuse because of Penguin's danger."
"I certainly have the confidence." Gordon said, "I oppose illegal detention, even if this guy has done great evil, it is not the reason for Napier to lock him up without court judgment. I will convince him."
Shiler revealed a smile.
He thought, the Pale Knight is a hero, Gordon is also a hero, the congressman is a good man, and Penguin is also a good man.
Then let the hero investigate the hero, and let the good man investigate the good man. Since everyone is difficult, then everyone should be reluctant.
"There is one more thing." Gordon opened his mouth and said, looking like he had already made up his mind and was now preparing to put it into practice.
"What?"
"The money problem. How much do you think we should pay..."
"Pay what?"
"Didn't you say you want to fish that Balk out?"
"Yes, I want to fish him out."
"Then how much money do you think is appropriate for us to spend?"
"Who said we should spend money?"
Shiler's counter-question made Gordon stunned, and he said: "Didn't you say to take the GTO's money to..."
Shiler immediately revealed a disapproving look and said: "This is misappropriation of public funds, Commissioner. If you say this again, I will take back my admiration for you."
Gordon's face turned into a pig liver color.
"But you said..."
"I said I want to fish him out, but I didn't ask you to misappropriate that money. This is illegal, you can't do this!" Shiler warned sternly.
"Then what should we do?"
Gordon thought Shiler would set up a name and help him think of a way to use this money. As a result, he heard Shiler say:
"I never said we should spend this money. This money should be spent by the Wei En Group."
"Ah?" Gordon was completely confused. He asked: "Spent by the Wei En Group? Why should they spend it?"
"Because they have money."
Looking at Gordon's confused expression, Shiler spread his hands and said: "The Wei En Group has a sum of money. This money was originally intended to invest in the GTO and take the management rights. It's just a coincidence that they didn't outbid Charabong."
Gordon nodded, he knew about this. Originally he thought the Wei En Group would be the final winner.
"The Wei En Group didn't take the GTO, so they wanted to take this money to improve the environmental pollution of the X15 district. As a result, it was a coincidence again that the chemical raw materials used to improve environmental pollution were surrounded in the natural forest land, so the environmental improvement plan didn't succeed either."
Gordon didn't know this, but he knew that with Batman's character, he would indeed do such things.
"Now, the heir to the Charabong family is lying in the hospital unconscious, and the whole family has no leader. The environmentalists who went to protest against the pollution they caused entered standing and came out lying, and they were all photographed by reporters. What do you think this family looks like now?"
Gordon didn't need Shiler to remind him. He knew the Charabong family was finished. It was originally a turbulent period. If the newly appointed heir used thunderous means, maybe he could stabilize the situation. As a result, the heir collapsed.
If they had been hiding and not showing their heads, acting like a tortoise, and passing this period, although it would make the family industry shrink, they could save the main body and not fall apart. As a result, there was another environmentalist attack and public opinion collapse event.
The Charabong family was not without competitors. They were worried about not finding a handle, and this group of environmentalists sent themselves to the door.
Gordon didn't even need to read the news to know that the bearded man must be talking loudly in front of the hospital bed now, accusing the Charabong family of buying murder. Charabong's competitors would definitely not let go of this good opportunity.
The Charabong family was finished.
"Wait a minute." Gordon suddenly realized something. He said: "The Charabong family collapsed, wouldn't they be unable to hire the GTO?"
"Yes, they can't control the GTO anymore, the GTO is free." Shiler nodded and said.
And Gordon was now in a state of being stunned by the pie falling from the sky. His hands were a bit shaky, and he said: "Then that money is still..."
"Yes, it's still there. It's yours to dispose of freely, Commissioner."
Gordon wanted to pinch his philtrum.
He really didn't understand how things developed into what they are now. Now the liquid capital in his hand is probably more than the Wei En Group!
"Since the GTO is free again, the Wei En Group can spend money to take the GTO again." Shiler said, "After all, this was their first goal for the money they prepared, wasn't it?"
"But now the GTO has money, and doesn't need their money."
"But now the GTO is facing a dissolution crisis again. Whoever can help you resolve this crisis can get the management rights, and the way to resolve the crisis is to spend a sum of money to fish Balk out."
"That's why I said, this money shouldn't be spent by us, but by the Wei En Group. Because the one who wants to get the GTO management rights has always been Batman."
