Chapter 2345 Gotham Music Festival (End)
The most grand concert of the evening was held as scheduled, but Schiller’s silent contribution was indispensable behind it.
After spending half an afternoon, Schiller had basically sorted out the relationships between the various forces running around in Gotham.
Bruce was misled by him to deal with the FBI, the FBI wanted to deal with Oliver and the KGB, the magician got into trouble with mercenaries and killers, the mercenaries and killers had a deep hatred with the FBI, and Deathstroke's primary target changed from Spider-Man to Batman, but Batman remained true to his original intention and wanted to strike a heavy blow to the FBI.
So they chased one by one, but no one could catch up with anyone else because of the obstruction of others. At the same time, in the process of resolving grievances, a large area was affected, leading to more grievances, and then falling into a vicious circle.
In this situation, any radical measures can easily backfire, because no matter which side you attack, the other side will think that you are sent by the other side, and then you will seek revenge on the other side and the fight will be more intense.
Schiller's solution was simple and efficient - all students in Gotham were given early vacation.
Gotham University's holiday policy during the music festival is that students are only allowed to take holidays when there are major events or performances. For safety reasons, students are not allowed to leave the campus at other times.
So the concert was held in the evening and they could only leave school at night, but Schiller let them out in the afternoon.
The reason why this method is efficient is that thousands of teenagers are released at the same time with excitement. Once they enter Gotham, the devil will run away as soon as they see them.
In a bar on the beach, Lucifer lay at the bar counter, looking at the dismal sales, and sighed helplessly.
At this time, his phone rang. After he picked it up, it was Schiller's voice on the other end, but Lucifer could tell that it was not arrogant.
"How did you find time to call me?" Lucifer asked, "Those three unlucky guys have already started giving economic lectures in Hell. Please leave a way for the demons in our universe to survive."
"It's their freedom to do whatever they want, but I'm calling to remind you that your bar is best closed now and stop receiving any guests. Don't let them in no matter what."
"Why?" Lucifer asked with some confusion.
"Because a large group of guests will be heading to the beach soon."
"Isn't that better?" Lucifer said happily, "Business has been bad in recent days, and I'm worried."
“But they’re pretty crazy.”
"Is he crazier than you?" Lucifer snorted coldly and said, "Didn't you say that as long as I can make money, I will do any business?"
What Lucifer didn't expect was that the call was hung up directly, as if Schiller didn't want to say another word to him.
Lucifer was a little depressed, but he also felt rebellious. He thought, "I won't close the door. I want to see how crazy I can get."
Soon the bar was full of guests, and Lucifer could tell from their conversation and behavior that they were all students.
He felt that he could get along well with young people, so he received the guests warmly. At the beginning, it was fine. The guests in the booths drank quietly, and the guests in the dance floor swayed their waists and danced to the music.
But soon, things started to go in the wrong direction.
The men and women in the booths got closer and closer as they drank. It was normal for them to hug each other in a bar, but some of them looked like they wanted to communicate at a negative distance.
Lucifer was not a gentleman and did not bother to get involved in this matter until he saw one of them take out a packet of powder from his pocket.
Although leaf-splitting is illegal, Lucifer is not a human being after all, let alone a human policeman, so he really has no business getting involved, until he was hugged when the wine was served and was urged to take a sip.
Lucifer was not a coward. The main thing was that if God was watching him, everyone in the bar would be chopped to death by God if he bit him.
Lucifer declined the invitation and decided to go to the dance floor. Just as he walked to the edge and was dazzled by the light, a girl came up to him. Lucifer turned around and saw that she was naked.
Lucifer is not such a conservative person. He changes girlfriends faster than he changes bars. But the problem is that this girl has Gothic tattoos all over her body, her eyes are blurry and she is unconscious. It is obvious that she has taken drugs.
What really made Lucifer back out was the fact that her arms were almost covered with needle marks. Lucifer had not personally tested whether angels could get AIDS, but he did not intend to test it himself.
Walking a little towards the center, things became a lot more normal. But as soon as Lucifer reached the crowded area, he felt someone touching his butt. When he turned around, he saw a strong black man looking at him and smiling.
Lucifer glared at him, but thinking that so many guests had come, he was too lazy to argue with him. He took two steps inside and was directly hugged by a drunk.
Lucifer dodged instantly. He swore that he definitely did not attack the drunkard. It was obvious that this guy was too drunk to stand steadily. But the moment he fell and hit his head on the ground, Lucifer felt like he was standing in the center of the World Boxing Championship stage.
All the people around him made way for him at lightning speed, screaming, shouting, cheering, and some people kept yelling for him to punch them, a beautiful left hook, and then a back throw!
Lucifer was standing in the middle of the field, feeling helpless. Then a hot beauty came up to him, hugged him, kissed him and said, "Old rules, if you win, you can take the party queen away. Come on, handsome boy, let me see what you can do."
Lucifer wanted to say, well, I am really capable, but the problem is that as a bar owner, he can't fight with his customers in the bar no matter what.
He could certainly win, but it would be embarrassing even if he won against a group of human cubs. If Michael got to his ears, he would laugh at him for at least 2000 years.
Lucifer sighed, waved his hand and left. Everyone shouted in disappointment. They thought everything was fine, but the drunk got up and actually thought that Lucifer had hit him. He grabbed a bottle of wine from the side and threw it at Lucifer.
Of course it was impossible to hit the target, and the bottle hit the corner of the wall. It turned out that there was a high-drinking man lying in the corner, lighting a cigarette. With a whoosh, as if by chance, the Molotov cocktail set fire to half of the bar.
Lucifer's bar is fireproof, but the way it does this is by isolating magical energy so that the devil's flames cannot burn here. However, because it has hardly ever done business with humans, it is not fireproof against physical ignition.
Lucifer tried to put out the fire by waving his hands, but the next second he was knocked off balance by the girl who rushed over to him. The others came up to him one after another as if they were having a party.
Lucifer, who was pinned down, yelled: "My bar!!!"
Such strange scenes are happening everywhere in the city. No matter if they are experienced mercenary killers, professional and experienced elite agents, or extraordinary magicians, they are all being chased by this group of crazy teenagers.
It's not impossible to kill them, and it's not difficult to subdue them either, but if you stop and try to take some action, you will inevitably be surrounded, and your fate will be no different from being surrounded by zombies.
The teenagers in Gotham are more powerful than those in other places. On the one hand, the people present may not have as much criminal experience as them. On the other hand, they have been suppressed in school for too long, and everyone wants to let off some steam. For a while, Gotham is full of clowns, and even the wishing well turtles avoid them.
But no matter what, these outsiders who were making trouble in Gotham City have calmed down, and the only ones left are locals. Outsiders making trouble is just dangerous, but the locals' trouble is one of Gotham's tourist attractions, so it can be considered a smooth resolution.
When the concert started in the evening, all the heavyweight guests arrived, including Schiller, who came with arrogance. This might be the only concert he planned to participate in in its entirety.
In every song rising from the ruins, the significance of the drumbeats goes beyond the rhythm, like the morning bell ringing when the misty red sun rises from the ruins. The connotation of the melody is far more than music, like cheers, shouts, and also like the first cry that the long history of evolution has not been able to eliminate.
When humans chase the sun, which they will never be able to catch, the most romantic thing is their footprints.
This concert is the first footprint left by this city which is still taking its first steps. The sun is still far away and the road ahead is still long, but what really inspired human ancestors to learn to run was the wonderful feeling when their feet first stepped on solid soil.
Schiller stood among the crowd, and in his tower of thought he took a moment to acclimate himself to the noise, which he had never experienced before.
The word "adaptation" will never appear in the life of an autistic person. They cannot break any existing rules of life. Even if their bodies fall to the ground, their souls will fly farther and farther away.
There must always be something to pull their souls back, so that they are no longer birds chasing the sun, but become people walking upright. From then on, in addition to owning the sky, they also own the earth and their fellow human beings walking side by side with them.
Then, on this isolated island far away from all the continents, when the sand, springs, and woods came together, the dark mountains standing in the distance also created a vibrant garden because of the soil, water splashes, and seeds brought by the wind.
Then he can be as pious as an ordinary person, grateful for the greatness of nature's creation, and as humble as an ordinary person, feeling satisfied with everything he has.
"I didn't expect this to work," Pride said.
"You mean we're one step closer to being ordinary people?" Greedy said, leaning on the railing.
"I mean you can make this concert a success." Pride continued: "I thought I would come back to see a ruin."
"That's not the case," said Greed.
The morning after the concert, Pride discovered that Greed was right.
The good news is that Gotham is not in ruins.
The bad news is that the Metropolitan Stock Exchange sold 1520 million shares that day, causing the stock price to fall by more than 25%.
In the fall of 1996, Black Wednesday arrived and another Great Depression in the United States began.
