After the defeat of all its original villains, Gotham has been declared to be the safest city in the world. But not more than a year after, the city witnesses the rise of a new villain, not just a small one, no! This one is brutal! The thing about h...
The second murder, though expected was still shocking. It yet again proved their incompetence.
Bruce couldn't help but stare blankly at the screen. They couldn't make progress, not really, with as little information that they have...
Barbara was the first to get over the shock and as determination filled her eyes, she marked the location of Murder Number 2 on the Pin Board, along with the wordings.

"Now what?" Dick asked, breaking the silence. The family exchanged looks, it was Helena who took the leadership, "We do what we do best: Try to solve it!"
___________________________________
That is how the Bat Family found themselves organised and instructed by Helena.
Bruce watched proudly as his youngest took command.
She split the family into two groups: one which looks into the possibility of revenge while the other that checks out if she's insane without purpose like the other Gotham villains.
"OK," Carrie initiated the discussion, "I don't understand how we ignored the fact that the killings started on the Day of the Fallen. Wouldn't that be significant?" She asked slightly confused.
Jason facepalmed at how ridiculous they were being, without looking at this fact.
"Wow, Rie," Tim teased, "Didn't know, you had it in you!"
At Carrie's glare, he shut up. "That's an important lead," Cassandra agreed, "That could justify the aspect of revenge, you know, probably it is about someone who lost a loved one in the Final Battle?"
"Yes, but why kill random people for it?" Dick questioned, confused.
"What if, just hear me out here, OK?" Jon asked, "See we didn't really catch all the people involved, right? What if there were people involved that we didn't know about, like her and the other guy?"
This theory was acknowledged.
"All this is only an extension to the revenge theory," Stephanie asserted, "But if the theory is false, so is our hypothesis."
While everyone kept thinking about this, Iris spoke up, "The woman who is murdered might be a trashy tabloid reporter or a corrupt public figure, I'm guessing."
"What makes you say that?" Jason questioned, genuinely curious.
"I was analysing the poem since literature is my specialisation," Iris justified pointing at the poem especially the word 'liar , "It's just that this woman was a liar, but she was worshipped, so she is a public figure. And who lies the most in this city? Tabloid reporters or paparazzi. There are only two infamous trash blogs in Gotham, one called Liv and the other is Grace in Gotham. And that narrows her identity to either: co-owners Sydney Welma, Olivia Truscott, Nora Indica or Glenis Hart. And out of these only Olivia and Glenis are blondes and out of the two only Olivia is a worshipped Public figure. Remember when we confronted her about spreading rumours about WE? She said and I quote, 'I give the public what they want to hear. What I speak is partly true!' Also, she has been reported missing for four days now," Iris completed, lifting her tab to show the proof of the report.
