Chapter 232 The Green Arrow Who Takes the Bullet
Do you remember Wei's next move?
Someone had already hacked into the stock exchange and was waiting (foreshadowing in Chapter 110). The moment the stock market opened, those monitored and locked accounts were hijacked by a hacker with the ID Robin Hood.
A massive sell-off of stocks ensued, and a deluge of dollars poured into thousands of Tim's illicit accounts.
On one hand, Tim and Barbara were locked in a tug-of-war using the "oracle" and the securities company's fire protection system; on the other hand, Romans who had been lying in wait in various parts of New Jersey poured into the bank with their money boxes and withdrew the funds from their accounts as soon as possible.
Seeing that it was almost time, Qin Wei gave the order to retreat.
Now he only regrets that the bank doesn't have enough savings; otherwise, if he could withdraw all the money from these unregistered accounts, he might be a hundred times richer than the real Batman.
Of course, the remaining money wasn't left in the account to wait for freezing. The hackers handed over this massive sum of nearly $100 billion to all the struggling bank customers in Gotham with less than $100 in savings, and then promptly erased the transfer records.
Of course, records can always be recovered. The only hope now is that these poor people can withdraw or spend all their money as soon as possible, and not give the capitalists a chance to recover it.
In just fifteen minutes, the company made billions of dollars out of thin air. This speed of making money is even more outrageous than printing money yourself.
However, while some laughed, others cried. Dr. Reed couldn't even cry; with his neck being choked, his eyes rolled back, and his fingernails were scratching incessantly on the back of Julia's hand.
"Where's the money? Tell me where the money is!"
The enraged owl gripped the phone and pounded it repeatedly on Reed's forehead until it broke his nose and left him bleeding profusely.
And so, Reed, the cunning creator, died of asphyxiation at the hands of his own "masterpiece"—a truly ironic end.
Meanwhile, Derek Bowles, who had paid the money, still hadn't received his shares in Wayne Enterprises. Thinking he had been deceived by Dr. Reed, his face was so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water.
"Find Daniel Reed, alive or dead."
"There might be some misunderstanding here. I'm looking at the stock trading market—" The trading analyst glanced at the online stock trading center that was undergoing maintenance and was about to say something for Daniel when he was met with a sharp stare from Derek.
"To be honest, I don't care about losing this money at all. At most, I can take over this half-dead Wayne Enterprises for $10 billion. It's nothing to me, is it?"
"What I can't accept is the accident itself, because I never have accidents, so I don't like it when my partners have frequent accidents, because accidents represent leverage, they represent evidence of wrongdoing."
Derek withdrew his gaze, nodded to the man in black standing guard by the door, who understood and pushed the door open to leave.
Meanwhile, a meeting was held in the Senate.
The meeting was attended by the same group of people as before: Little Penguin and Catwoman, Jason and Dick, plus Tim.
It would have been perfect if the deadly shooter had been there instead of lying in the hospital.
Wei didn't actually have anything major to announce when he gathered everyone together. He just wanted to give a brief summary of the battle and, as the initiator, tell them that the war was over.
"Once I receive the money, I will use it for the renovation of Wayne Manor and the reconstruction of Gotham City. Since the funds are plentiful, please feel free to ask if you need any money."
As he said this, he spread his fingers and pinched his temples, rubbing them.
"Therefore, the plan succeeded, and the war is completely over."
The anticipated cheers did not materialize. After achieving their goal, the team seemed to lose their way, looking around with genuine confusion in their eyes.
Just as an eerie silence filled the room, a cell phone ringing suddenly drew everyone's attention.
Several pairs of eyes turned to Tim simultaneously.
"I'm sorry, I should have turned off my phone during the meeting—but I'm still a kid—I hope you can understand~"
Tim looked horrified.
"When you use your childhood as a shield, you can no longer be treated as a child!"
Jason frowned and said in a feigned menacing tone.
"Really?!"
"It's fake! Ignore him." With a slap on the back of Jason's head, Will walked up to Tim. "If the person calling you at this crucial moment isn't your parent, then things are going to get interesting."
Tim only remembered that his phone was still ringing after being reminded by the other party. He grabbed it and glanced at the caller's name. The boy was so frightened that he threw the phone high into the air.
"He really called! This is bad! I should have known better than to use this account."
"The person you're referring to is—" Wei asked after taking the phone.
"An online friend—no, I should call him a client! That was my first job. I hacked into the account of a gang in Xingcheng and stole all the stolen money."
"But the client's request was strange. He insisted that I use an avatar with Robin Hood logo (foreshadowing in Chapter 79). I also assured him afterwards that I would not use that account again."
"But after the last live stream incident, my main account was locked, and I only used this backup account because of the time crunch!!"
! !
""
Even if you don't pay much attention to DC, you should know who's calling after seeing that name on the screen.
GreenArrow
Wei quietly whistled.
It turns out that the famous Green Arrow from Star City, Oliver Queen, was once Tim's client!
When the call connected, an angry, distorted voice came from the other end.
"This is not what we agreed on. You promised me you wouldn't use that account again!!! But you not only used it, you even committed a case that shocked the entire United States. Do you know how many similar LOGOs I left in Star City?"
"Thanks to you, I'm almost becoming a criminal! Oh my god!!!!"
"Excuse my bluntness, but if you have a clear conscience, why are you afraid of an investigation?" Wei naturally accepted the other party's roar and deflected it back with a counterattack.
The Green Arrow on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before finally speaking slowly.
"Who are you?"
"Someone who can solve your problems."
Will felt obligated to help resolve the issue since it originated with him, but he was also worried that something might happen to Oliver and implicate Tim.
This war must end here; we must not allow any further complications.
"How can I trust that you can solve my problem?"
"The Knights of Gotham, is that enough weight?"
"are you serious?"
"Masked men don't lie to masked men, do you think I'm right? Ollie—" Qin Wei deliberately dragged out Green Arrow's name and slowly pronounced it, and sure enough, the other party couldn't stand it after only half of it.
"Alright, stop talking! I'll give you an address. Before this gets out of hand, I hope you can come over as soon as possible."
