Chapter 132: Hannibal Lecter
4/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.
Not only was his image and temperament out of place here, but even his killing habits were not quite the same as the others.
When the man was put in, Selina heard the two police officers who escorted him talking about her fellow prisoner.
“Did he really dig out the dead man’s liver?”
This was one of the younger officers inquiring.
“That’s right, and after listening to the forensic examination, it was said that there were obvious bite marks in the liver of the deceased, which matched perfectly with the murderer’s teeth!”
Another was a fairly old police officer.
“He really ate… ate human liver?”
“There is no doubt that his face will long be remembered by all the policemen of the United States. He is Hannibal Lecter. Young policemen like you perhaps only heard his name.”
“What! He is the legendary ogre?”
The young police officer was shocked. He was lucky enough to escort this legendary criminal.
“Hush? Don’t shout, look at your outburst!”
The old policeman frowned. It’s no good to be shocked so easily in prison.
In Gotham, those who enter the Black Gate Prison are not ordinary prisoners and are even known as the springboard to Arkham.
Many people in the Arkham Asylum were promoted from the Black Gate.
This young man made a fuss because of a mere Hannibal, who knows what he can do in the future.
The young police officer immediately covered his mouth. It is not surprising that he would react this way, because Hannibal’s name is known to everyone in the US Police Academy.
This vegetarian foodie is even known as one of the most feared serial killers of all time.
As for other rare weird super criminals, the students are generally not told about them in the police academy because they are too prone to accidents.
Such events have happened in Gotham.
The mayor did not listen to Gordon’s dissuasion and compiled the Joker incident eight years ago into the textbook of the Gotham Police Academy. As a result, a large number of criminals started imitating the Joker after two or three years.
And those few years happened to be the most difficult period for GCPD to recruit new people.
So in the third year, the mayor was forced to cancel this education policy…
“I heard that an FBI detective has been chasing Hannibal for ten years, but there has been no found clue. Why is Hannibal suddenly caught and sent to us now?”
The young police officer asked strangely.
“Who caught him, and who sent him to the Black Gate Prison? Was it Batman?”
“Actually, I think Hannibal is more appropriate to be imprisoned in the Arkham Asylum.”
“No one caught Hannibal. I heard that he was sent to us directly because he was caught killing a person in the street for his liver.”
The old cop shook his head, indicating that he wasn’t sure what was going on.
“The strange thing is that after Hannibal was knocked out of the assault, he did not run away uncharacteristically, but waited on the spot for the police to arrest him.”
“He was sent to the GCPD about thirty minutes later, but no matter how Chief Gordon interrogated him, Hannibal didn’t say a word. He kept his current expression, the terrifying smile.”
At this point, the old policeman couldn’t help but shiver, and Hannibal’s smile was as cold as winter’s ice.
Just thinking about it makes people feel goosebumps.
“You are right. The Black Gate Prison is not suitable for prisoners like Hannibal. The warden has already contacted the Arkham Asylum, and it won’t take long for the most trustworthy person to come and transfer Hannibal.”
At this time, the old policeman checked his watch and said, “Enough, we have spent a lot of time chatting, it’s time to get back to the post.”
So the young policeman walked out with the old policeman.
Their duty was to guard the doorway of this level of cells.
Hannibal and Catwoman were imprisoned at the lowest level of the Black Gate Prison. There was no other structure nearby except a long corridor. On both sides of the corridor were a long series of cells.
Each cell is separated by a strong and heavy iron fence, and there is a half-meter gap between them.
Because only the two outermost walls are made of concrete, each cell is absolutely transparent, with no dead ends or windows.
The vents for ventilation are at the end of the corridor, separated from the last two cells by a distance of about two meters.
The corridor measures 47 meters from the front to the end.
The length of the iron fence of each cell near the corridor is two meters, the width from the iron fence to the wall is three meters, and the area of each cell is six square meters.
Therefore, there are 36 cells on both sides of the corridor.
But this does not mean that there are only 36 prisoners, because the first 30 cells have “double-beds” or even “three-beds.”
There are seventy to eighty prisoners in custody.
Of the six single cells, only three are currently occupied.
Catwoman and Hannibal are two of them, and their cells happen to be next to each other.
Selina’s cell is second to last on the left, and Hannibal is first to last.
“Hello, I take it you are Selina Kyle.”
It didn’t take long before Hannibal began to talk to Selina, his speech and manners were very polite.
Every move revealed his essence as a gentleman.
Of course, this also made Selina think of a certain culprit who sent her here in the first place.
The strangest thing is that she can’t even hate that guy.
“Mr. Lecter, I really didn’t expect to be locked in the same prison as you one day. You’ve probably eaten more people than I’ve ever stolen, you should be charged more than me.”
Selina chatted and responded to Hannibal, but what she said didn’t seem so friendly.
“Oh, they want to send me somewhere else afterwards because they don’t feel confident they can hold me.”
Hannibal was not angry at all and continued to talk to Selina in an amicable manner.
“I’m just curious why didn’t they send me themselves?”
“They are afraid of escorting you. No one can guarantee whether you could break free and eat the two policemen who escorted you during transportation.”
Selina said the truth.
“You are very smart, Miss Kyle. Usually, young girls like you go on the road of crime, either because they are driven by a momentary affair or they have a tragic past.”
Hannibal gazed into Selina’s eyes.
“But you are very special. You not only have a tragic past but also have received professional training. Obviously, one cannot learn such skills and proficiencies in various technological tools on the streets.”
“What’s even weirder is that, while being one of the best thieves, your own residence is so shabby that it makes people feel distressed. Where did the precious jewels you stole go?”
“It has nothing to do with you!”
Selina said coldly.
“Instead of prying into my past, let’s talk business. I don’t believe the police are capable of catching you, so you must have some sort of purpose for coming in.”
“Did Daget send you here?”
“No, as you may not know in prison, Daget is ‘dead’. Bruce Wayne has taken back all the shares of Wayne Enterprises from him.”
“All he has left in his hands now is the Laikin Data Corporation, which has been losing money year after year, and it won’t be long before he declares bankruptcy.”
To Catwoman’s surprise, Hannibal shook his head.
“The one who really wants to see you is named Bane…”
