Chapter 28 - 5 Arriving at Gotham (2/2)

” Mayor Sharp, It is an honor to finally meet you face to face. Your great accomplishments at the Arkham Asylum is worthy of praise.” He greeted the Mayor and then turns to Professor Hugo, ” And this must be Dr. Hugo Strange. I am very pleased to meet great psychiatrist like you.

Your accomplishments and deduction skills are worthy of praise. I even hear that you can determine a person just by his tone and actions. It is simply marvelous.” He said with awe in his face.

Although Sharp is happy with the praise Thomas has showed on them, Hugo noticed something else from his posture, it was vigilance.

He doesn't know whether it is from their presence or arriving in Gotham all together which made him vigilant.

He himself is curious about this young genius. Even Talia called him before and specifically asked him, to take note of his behaviour and see if they can use him for their own purposes.

So far, he has only found him to be smart, vigilant, and cunning.

Even though Thomas is vigilant he seem to possess confidence in his words. It seems like he feels his guards the enough to deal with all the dangers, Gotham has to offer.

” Good morning, Mister Allens. You are quite a spirited boy yourself. I heard it was your plan to open a hospital here at Gotham, I am very curious why you would do that when your status is New York City is even more popular than here.

It would be good for your new hospital chain if it has started from there. ” Sharp asked him.

Hugo has already set some questions for Sharp to ask Thomas so he can gain more Intel about this young inventor.

Instead of being worried or shocked by this sudden query, he calmly replied back to him, ” I thought of using a place which is the most difficult place for me to open a hospital.

Opening a hospital and running it properly is a difficult task. As long as I can do it in that place, I am sure I cam establish a big chain of hospitals throughout the world.

So I have chosen Gotham, for it is a very challenging task to run a hospital here effectively. ” he said with a confident smile.

Most will see him as a confident, and brazen boy who don't know the world of ȧduŀts but a psychiatrist like Hugo finds things much differently than others.

He saw the careful placement of words and a vigorous attempt to display himself as an arrogant and confident bit who wish to leave a mark in this world.

But, he is a careful planner and likes his opponent to underestimate his worth. He someone who think things for a marathon instead of a 100 metre dash.

' He is quite interesting. 'Hugo thought to himself.

At that very moment, another person came and interrupted their talks at the front of Hotel Zeus.

” Did everyone know I am coming, so you all came to greet me? I am really touched.” Came an arrogant voice.

Everyone turned to the source.

It was Bruce Wayne, the richest man on Earth.
