The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 159 Party and Umbrella ([-])

Gordon's head was about to explode, and Coppert also fell into a state of doubting his life.

His doubts at this time were no less than Gordon's, because he was originally the mastermind behind the whole thing.

Looking at his plan from Coppert's point of view, he wants to break away from the godfather and accumulate some capital for himself. To put it bluntly, he wants to make some money to pave the way for his future recovery.

So he jumped back and forth between Fish and Kevin, and finally, in order to completely get rid of all those who wanted to control him, he first killed Kevin with the help of Fish, and then killed Fish with the help of Maroney, and finally wanted to use the accusation of Ma Ronnie, who was the son of the godfather, came to escape smoothly.

The previous links went smoothly, and now it has reached the final step, but Cobbot never expected that Evans would plead guilty? ? ?

Then how will he carry out his last plan?

In fact, for this sake, Coppert himself also knew that he actually didn't have to carry out the last step of the plan.

Because he is really mentally ill, not pretending, even if he doesn't do the last thing for the godfather, judging from his condition, the godfather should not embarrass a minor with schizophrenia.

Even if the godfather knew that Copperpot was sick, he might even spend a sum of money to see a doctor for him.

The reason why the godfather is the godfather is for this reason. He does not have the cruel behavior of killing others when he runs out of people in many film and television dramas. On the contrary, many gangsters who have retired from the Falcone family have been well received Pension benefits, treatment for those who are sick, buying a house for vacation for those who are not sick, washing their hands in a golden basin, and enjoying their old age in peace.

Coppert knew that under such circumstances, the godfather would no longer embarrass him, and he no longer needed to try his best to pretend to be sick, worrying all day whether there would be the godfather's eyeliner, because he was indeed mentally ill, Confirmed by the attending physician at Arkham Psychiatric Hospital.

But Coppert couldn't accept that his perfect plan was unfinished. Originally, his mother's illness and his illness had caused his plan to go wrong, which made Copott feel like a stick in his throat and uncomfortable.

For a man with criminal aspirations, it's like throwing a mouse poop into a pot of perfect soup.

However, Coppert can barely accept it, after all, life, old age, sickness and death are such things.No one can control it. Both he and his mother fell ill at this time, which can only be said to be bad luck.

However, Evans' confession was obviously a hidden story, not an accident. Coppert couldn't tolerate another behind-the-scenes manipulator appearing in his perfect plan.

Coppert couldn't help thinking, could he really have misjudged the person?Is Falcone Jr. the real mastermind behind the scenes?
When Copott was wondering, Schiller's voice pulled him back, and Schiller stared at Copott and said, "You haven't answered my question yet, where did this umbrella come from?"

Gordon and Coppert looked at Schiller together, and Copott said what Gordon was thinking: "Is this the time to talk about this issue? What's so important about it?"

Gordon also said: "My good professor! Don't worry about your broken umbrella!"

"The matter is very serious now! The heir of the Falcone family actually ran to the police station and admitted that he had committed murder..."

Gordon pointed to the door and said: "Just now, our new police chief has a high blood pressure, and he should be in the ambulance now."

"I just received 15 consecutive calls. The only two justices in our city said that they made a vacation plan two months ago and bought a plane ticket overnight to leave Gotham..."

"The nine civil servants in the Gotham Court, five had gastroenteritis, three had a high fever, and one suddenly lost his voice and went to the hospital overnight to recuperate. Even three of the five sweepers broke their legs. Tomorrow Can't come to work..."

"Just within an hour, Gotham's judicial system was successfully paralyzed."

After finishing speaking, Gordon himself was laughed out of anger. He said: "I don't know how many times they have rehearsed. In this emergency situation, in just one hour, in order from top to bottom, like Falling down like dominoes faster than a fucking courthouse can run on fire..."

"What's even more outrageous is that we have received announcements from 12 law firms that they are temporarily closed. Now, you can't find any lawyer in Gotham that you can get through..."

Schiller didn't listen to his complaints at all. Instead, he picked up the umbrella and poked Copperpot's injured arm. Copott screamed in pain and ran away.

He stared up at Schiller, then looked down at his arm that was still tied to the armrest, and said as if resigned to his fate: "Okay, but I have to find out what happened to Evans first, I can't allow..."

At this moment, there was a sound from the balcony of the psychiatric hospital. Batman walked in with air-conditioning and the smell of blood. Schiller turned to look at him, and the Batman who walked in was also stunned. He didn't expect there to be so many people here. people.

Schiller looked him up and down and said, "The great detective from Gotham is here, let's hear what he has to say."

Gordon sniffed and said to Batman, "What are you doing? Why does it smell like blood?"

"That's not important." Batman's voice was still indifferent.

"Maroney told me it was Evans Falcone who ordered him to kill Fish."

"You came a step late." Gordon said with his arms akimbo, "Evans has already confessed his guilt."

Before Batman could continue to ask Gordon for details, Schiller tapped the metal guardrail at the end of the hospital bed with his umbrella, making a lot of noise. He raised his voice and said, "I hope you can figure it out, this is my Office, let me go first."

Schiller put up the umbrella, and said, "Answer my questions, and get out of here and find some other place for your detective convention."

"God! It rains every day in Gotham. My umbrella is broken. The umbrella maker who can fix it is dead. How can you be so cold and have no compassion?"

The rest of the people looked at him in silence, Schiller paused, and said helplessly: "Well, if you have to solve your problems before you can answer my questions, then you don't need to ask Evans..."

He put down the umbrella, tapped the tip of the umbrella on the tiles on the floor, and said, "I suggested he do it."

Gordon and Copperpot stared at the same time, Schiller put down the umbrella, sat behind the desk, and said, "It seems that you will have to listen to my version of the story again from the beginning."

Batman stood in a corner of the room with his arms folded, his expression as if to say "I expected it".

Schiller took a sip of water, and then began his narration.

"About a month ago, Evans came to Gotham University's psychological consultation room to confide his troubles to his teacher."

"He has some issues with his father, and the first half of the story sounds like teenage troubles, but the second half is not so pleasant because his father is also the godfather of Gotham."

"We all know that the old godfather had already planned to retire. He handed over a large area of ​​property in the western district to his son and let him play. Although Evans didn't perform well, the old godfather also Don't worry, after all, he is still young."

"But then, Gotham's reforms began."

"Obviously, the old godfather wanted to retire not because he was really old, but because he had already reached the top, no matter how hard he tried, nothing would change."

"However, Gotham's reforms have brought him new hope and made him see the possibility of going to a higher level. Then, do you think that at this time, he will still have the mentality of retiring as soon as possible?"

Gordon shook his head and said, "Recently, I have seen the old godfather. Although he has always been so energetic, I can feel that his state is a little different."

"Indeed, Falcone has ruled Gotham for 40 years. He wants to end his rule and hand over his position to the next generation. There's nothing else to do."

"But after the reform began, everything was different. The Falcone family has too many new possibilities. The logistics industry needs to be managed, and the urban construction also needs to be watched. There are too many hidden games in the cooperation with Chicago, and the Imperial City. The same is true for our contacts, not to mention, the east coast tandem plan that is still on the schedule..."

Schiller knocked on the table and said, "If it was said that the old godfather had given the whole of Gotham as a testing ground for his son to practice, then he would not be so careless now."

Batman's voice came from the corner of the room: "An emperor who is not yet old has regained his ambition, so the status of a prince..."

"That's right, Evans was put in an awkward position. Originally, his father had already handed over a lot of property to him, and he had the capital to shake the old godfather's rule."

"But at this time, his father suddenly didn't plan to abdicate, and seemed to plan to rule Gotham for another 40 years."

"Then the situation of the heirs who have already received part of the power is no longer embarrassing, but dangerous."

"Evans told me this and came to me for advice."

Schiller glanced at Gordon and Copperpot, and said, "You should know the old godfather better than I do."

Coppert was silent for a while and said: "He loves his son very much, but this does not mean that he will allow his successor to have too much ambition, and will not sit back and watch anyone else gain power in advance that may shake his position."

Coppert suddenly understood. He looked at Schiller and said, "What advice did you give Little Falcone?"

"Of course I would advise him to retreat bravely."

Schiller stood up and paced slowly around the table and said: "You should know better than me that Falcone is generous in some ways, but he has ruled Gotham for 40 years, not just because of his tolerance and kindness. and."

"If Evans dares to show any ambition to shake his father's rule at this time, although Falcone will not kill him, it is normal to put Evans under house arrest until he is willing to retire."

Gordon immediately reacted. He stared at Schiller and said, "So you just..."

"The godfather once asked Evans to kill Maroney himself. Evans did capture him and could have killed him, but I suggest he use it as a waste."

"Of course, what happened afterwards was created by Evans' own genius, and it has nothing to do with me."

"Evans was very impulsive at first. When dealing with the relationship between the living hell, he had conflicts with various gang bosses. Then he ordered Maroni to enter the living hell and asked him to kill the gang bosses and damage his reputation. ..."

Then he looked at Copperpot, who said to himself, "So I hit it off with Maroney..."

"Just like you said before." Schiller looked at Gordon: "A successor who was impulsive at first, indecisive when doing things, and then jumping over the wall to assassinate in a hurry, looks really stupid and not threatening."

"Not to mention, he still went to the police." Gordon added helplessly.

"More importantly..." Schiller dug out a medical record from under the table and said, "As expected, Gotham's judicial system was paralyzed as soon as it was heard that Falcone was going to go through the formal trial process. Then he can skip the process of bail, court hearing, trial, and imprisonment, and fast-forward directly to medical parole..."

Gordon looked like he had eaten shit, and he said: "... Then I can meet you here, right? You even prepared your medical records in advance..."

Schiller pointed to the bed next to Copperpot and said, "That's his bed."

"Mentally ill, he can be out of his father's presence for a long time." Batman concluded, "It's good for both of them."

"Okay, the story is over." Schiller turned his eyes to Copperpot again and said, "Now you should answer my question, right?"

Everyone's eyes, following Schiller's movements, fell on the umbrella he raised.
