Justice was working hard on her degree. She set a goal to become a policewoman, at some point a detective. She saw her path clear, that was all she had, and she was focused and ready to take action. Meanwhile Evan's path was going in the opposite direction from Justice's. More secrets, more meetings, more followers but Evan himself became more focused on his own thoughts; he locked himself from all disturbances. Once he wrote to Justice in symbols "I'm working on "The new way" book what will guide seekers of a greater future of Gotham". Justice found this piece of paper under her door when she came back from the college. Evan wasn't home so she asked him in symbols "What is it in this book?" and pushed this paper under his door. The next morning she read an answer from Evan on the same paper in symbols: "I want you to read it but in order to do so I have to trust you. You should join me at my meetings. Together we can make following real big and do more what's planed". Justice never replied, she knew her path and wasn't about to turn from it.
Evan stopped writing to Justice after that, stopped sharing news from his meetings, He has never mention anything about the book or his plans. Justice enjoyed her loneliness, she felt free from her roommate and his toxic and full of anxiety feelings and thoughts. She finally could fully concentrate on study and her career.
Life in Gotham didn't change much and some parts became even worse. The new law was passing the mayor's office. Gotham as a city on the water, surrounded by water was an attraction for new comers for decades. New law created very strict rules and boarders where new comers could freely buy a property or open their own businesses. But those zones and zones only were created to contain immigrants. And there they were three zones, each of them heavily guarded by police; nobody could leave those zones without a permeation or proper document. In a nutshell those zones became camps for immigrants and outside those zones new comers had no value or rights. Unfortunately, police only protected "out zoners" but not those who lived inside so the crime and drug abuse increased in those zones tremendously.
