Nobody can stop me from drawing cards in Gotham!

Chapter 111 Jaeger: Suddenly I felt a chill down my spine.

After dealing with the matter of "Hera Above", Jaeger then looked through the help requests he had posted earlier.

It has to be said that the netizens in Metropolis are worlds apart from those in Gotham; most of them are extremely enthusiastic.

Jaeger also took the opportunity to note down several highly rated photo spots and restaurants, and even the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which is a bit less mainstream.

At the same time, Jaeger couldn't help but wonder if if he posted a request for help in Gotham City, the comments section would probably be filled with something like, "You stinky outsider, coming to Gotham to beg for food?"

It must be said that the efficiency with which the toxic fog handled the acquisition was quite high. No wonder it was the ghost CEO of the Parrels Group, the man standing behind Langdon—no, the alien.

In just three days, the acquisition of Planet Daily was already nearing completion.

Fortunately, Planet Daily's business structure is relatively simple and not complicated, so the entire acquisition process went very smoothly.

Otherwise, if it were a target with a complex industrial structure, the acquisition process alone could take several years.

-

What's even more coincidentally is that Morgan Edge, the current owner of Planet Daily—a media mogul who owns telecommunications groups and television stations—was already very interested in the social platform craze represented by Parrels Group's Pingo.

Therefore, after learning of Parrels Group's intention to acquire the Daily Planet, the other party did not maliciously raise the price.

Instead, they took the opportunity to reach a consensus with the Parrels Group, and will cooperate more on social media platforms in the future.

Of course, Jaeger only learned the general outline of all these things from the poisonous fog.

After all, he didn't really understand the ins and outs of this.

Professional matters should indeed be left to professionals.

For a chairman like Langdon, who occasionally offers an opinion but mostly slacks off, he can simply be his own mascot, idling away from work.

Besides the acquisition of Planet Daily, in the past few days, the Arkham redevelopment project, represented by Harvey Dent, has finally extended an invitation to the Parrels Group.

Jaeger readily accepted, as the construction of Arkham involved his future plans for dealing with the Court of Owls.

Once the plan is officially launched, Jaeger is confident that he can fool the owls and have the Arkham lunatics fight amongst themselves—cough cough, I mean, have the villains fight amongst themselves.

Of course, Jaeger sometimes wondered when the Court of Owls would discover something amiss.

Although these cult members are somewhat eccentric, they are certainly not fools, as they are the behind-the-scenes power holders who secretly control the city.

So here's the question: what would their reaction be if they realized that the evil god they worshipped had suddenly changed?

Jaeger was actually a little worried about this.

Although, given his level of magic, he might not be afraid of the Court of Owls and their claws—

But if these guys really retaliate, it will probably cause a lot of trouble.

However, now that he thinks about it, Jaeger feels that the problem isn't that big of a deal.

From the perspective of the Court of Owls, this is because an unknown, higher being can silently sever its connection with its original deity, subtly attributing its symbols and runes to it.

They seem even more terrifying than the original gods?

Moreover, given the shrewdness of the Court of Owls, even if they discover this, they probably won't take any rash action.

I still have many ways to deal with them.

Furthermore, given that we've now entered the storyline and the probability of triggering event cards has increased dramatically.

Jaeger's items, equipment, and skill cards will only accumulate more and more, making him completely unfazed by these cult members.

So right now, rather than worrying about the Court of Owls, Jaeger is more focused on something else—the acquisition of the Daily Planet and his negotiations with Morgan Edge.

The Parrels Group does indeed need their chairman, Landon Parrels, to make a trip to the neighboring Metropolis.

As expected, a trip to the metropolis was now unavoidable.

However, Jaeger was still very happy about finally being able to change the map.

Enough said—Metropolis, start!

The night after Jaeger left.

Crime Alley, Tompkins Clinic.

Good evening, doctor.

A voice drifted into the clinic. Leslie, who was tidying up her bandages, looked over and saw a very familiar blue-eyed boy who seemed to live nearby.

After all, the tuft of white hair on the other person's forehead was quite conspicuous, so it left a rather deep impression on Leslie.

"I remember you are—Jason?" Leslie pulled out a chair and gestured for Jason to sit down. "Coming so late, has something happened to your mother again?"

"No, she's fine." Jason hesitated for a moment, then finally sat down under the somewhat similar, gentle gazes of Leslie and Catherine. "I just wanted to ask, where's the detective who lives next door?"

"I wanted to ask him something, but I knocked on the door for a long time and there was no answer."

"And it wasn't just tonight; I actually came last night too, but I didn't see him there either—"

"So you're here to see Jaeger." Leslie smiled. "Don't worry, he's just gone on vacation and will probably be back in a while."

"And it's very close by, right next to the Metropolitan area."

"Ah, that's good." Leslie sighed wistfully. "If the clinic weren't here and it weren't inconvenient to leave, I would have chosen to go to Metropolis or Hawaii to soak up some sun—Gotham just gets too much rain."

"Going on a trip?" Jason breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "I see. I thought—the detective had left."

"After all, this apartment building has been uninhabited for many years. The detective may have only stayed briefly before suddenly disappearing again, leaving the apartment building behind once more."

Leslie chuckled at Jason's pessimistic assumptions, since it sounded a bit like separation anxiety.

It seems the detective next door and Jason have quite a history, which is why the boy is so worried about him suddenly disappearing.

But at the same time, Leslie remembered the legend of the apartment building next door, and the magical ability Jaeger had used to subdue the criminal—

She suddenly became uncertain whether Jason's statement made no sense at all.

After all, Jaeger Winchester was someone who suddenly appeared in this city, and no one knew where he came from or how long he would stay.

It's like a crow that happened to perch here, and you never know when it will flap its wings and fly away.

However----

"Trust him," Leslie said softly, patting Jason's head. "If it's him, even if he really wants to leave, he won't do it without a word."

Moreover

"Besides?" Jason asked instinctively.

"Besides, even if he really did disappear for no reason," Leslie said kindly, holding up her phone, "his social media accounts are still there."

"At worst, we can just ask Batman to hack his account and see where this guy disappeared to without a word, hehehe—"

'

Jason: "————"

He looked at Leslie, whose face was still gentle, but found the man's laughter strangely sinister, sending chills down his spine.

Wrong, an illusion?
