[Comprehensive British and American] Venus Goddess

"That man has been by my side for as long as I can remember, raised me, was like a father to me, and now he's taken by a psycho, a lunatic, a psycho who takes pleasure in making others miserable, even very May have suffered incalculable harm..."

Although he was wearing a helmet, it was difficult to see his expression clearly, but the drooping corners of Batman's mouth under the helmet showed that he was not calm at this time: "You don't want me to use code words, that's just right, I also I don't want to use it! The longer Alfred is taken away, the more damage he may suffer, I just asked you to come here to save time."

Hearing Batman swearing, Ye Yi was not in the mood to ridicule at the moment, because his emotions were also on the verge of a critical point where he could not help but swear to vent his emotions. He knew Bruce was right, and he was very clear Tim didn't choose to question Batman's reasons--Bruce should be the most anxious and worried person among them in this situation, but...

"Sorry, Bruce, but this is Alfred." Not only was he like a father to Bruce, but also to him who basically grew up in Wayne Manor.

"I know." Unexpectedly and reasonably, Batman didn't become dissatisfied again because of his lack of calmness, "so if there is no accident, I didn't intend to let other members of the family except you know this. thing."

"Huh? What?" Hearing the second part of Batman's words, Ye Yi frowned, wondering for a moment whether he had heard it wrong.

"If they know that Alfred was kidnapped by the clown, they will definitely go after the clown."

Seemingly understanding what Batman meant, Ye Yi frowned even more because of this: "Of course they will..."

"Then they will give the clown an advantage when chasing and killing the clown because they can't control their emotions, and it's still on the premise that the clown is after them, including you." Batman looked at the corner of his mouth Nightwing frowned.

Nightwing pursed his lips under Batman's disapproving gaze: "How do you know they can't control their emotions? Since that's the case, why did you tell me? Don't tell me you think I can control my emotions —Actually, as you've seen, Tim is a better fit than I am for this."

"I can barely control my emotions, let alone other members of the family. Tim...he just looks calm. If I give him a seemingly irrelevant task now and don't give it If there is a reason, he will definitely not do it like he did when he was Robin, but will use his own thinking to find the answer he wants to get."

"A detective cannot be another detective's assistant," said Batman, the corners of his mouth no longer drooped, and although he didn't smile, the tight jaw line seemed to relax a little, "He has already started his career, there are Looking for answers and solutions to problems by himself, at this time, he has something to do."

"But you are different, Dick," Batman looked at Nightwing standing beside him, "Even if you are no longer Robin, you are still my best assistant-you are the only one of them after knowing this matter Still willing to sit still and listen to me.”

Ye Yi suddenly thought of Damian in the Batcave who was furious after knowing that Alfred was kidnapped by the clown, and was finally pressed down by him and Tim together. He couldn't think of any rebuttal for a while, but he frowned His brows gradually loosened.

Noticing Nightwing's expression, Batman knew that he had successfully convinced his former assistant: "Dick, I need you to protect them with me."

The former golden partners successfully reached a consensus on the matter of working together again.

"The clown took Alfred...do you think he knows?"

"No, I don't think he knows. The tape left by the Joker says it's for Bruce Wayne, and he says he's looking for a good servant to prepare a celebration for him."

"As Bruce Wayne's butler, Alfred is not only very good, but also famous, especially after the Wayne Group started the Gotham revival plan, plus Bruce Wayne is Batman and Batman The biggest sponsor of the Heroes Club, if the clown uses 'excellent servant' as his search criteria, Alfred is undoubtedly the best choice."

"That's it? Just because of Bruce Wayne's relationship with Batman and Batman's Heroes?" Nightwing narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew Bruce, just as Bruce knew him. He felt that according to Bruce's personality, just relying on this It was simply guesswork, not even evidence. It was impossible for him to be so sure. His tone sounded like another way of self-persuasion.

Ye Yi took a deep breath: "Bruce, is there anything you haven't told me?"

Batman replied very calmly: "I know where the Joker is going next."

"What?" Once again, he doubted his ears for a moment, but this time Ye Yi quickly reacted: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."

But to Nightwing's surprise, Batman, who was still convincing him to partner with him a few minutes ago, firmly rejected him: "No, I'll go by myself."

"Go to hell! If you think you can—"

But then, Batman's plan manages to interrupt his slightly angry words.

The figure of Nightwing flicked across the night sky of Gotham, heading towards the reservoir on the outskirts of Gotham in the air currents that ruffled his hair due to his rapid movement.

While he was on his way, he recalled in his mind the conversation between Batman and himself in the corridor of the hospital ten minutes ago.

"I need you to go to the aqueduct closest to the reservoir, Dick. He's repeating old crimes, with new ones, or the other way around."

"Reservoir...do you think he will poison the reservoir?"

"I don't know, because his tactics became uncertain, I thought it was the other way around, but Grace Sharp came along and changed my mind, at that time, if Tim hadn't come back to New York, Mayor Hardy might have been killed. , that's why I need you in the aqueduct, I can't be sure if he will poison the reservoir, but there is no doubt that he will tamper with the reservoir."

"How do you know that he will be in the reservoir? As you said, he is indeed reenacting the crime, but the method and the order of reenacting the crime seem to be at his pleasure..."

"I just know. Then, remember to notify me when you are in place, as before."

"...Well, you have to be careful."

Batman, who parted ways with Nightwing, rode on a more convenient and sensitive Batmotor, and galloped towards the reservoir on the outskirts of Gotham.

On the bridge above the reservoir, Batman looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure standing on the bridge facing him from a distance for a year, and slowly stopped the Batmotor.

Earlier, Dick asked him why he knew the Joker would be at the reservoir, and he didn't answer Dick because he didn't know how to explain his bizarre reference to the clue the Joker had left - the heparin dilution the Joker used on Jim Very special, it is produced by Gotham's well-known daily chemical and pharmaceutical company, and this company is also producing chemicals for maintaining the reservoir.

Dick only knew that he had fought the clown at the reservoir, but he didn't know that it was the first time he had fought the clown face-to-face—and it was also the first time he knew the clown's true face.

At this moment, looking at the man standing on the bridge, seeing him open his hands to him, with a familiar smirk on his face, hearing him say, "Hi, good evening, dear."

In an instant, time seemed to go back to the time when he first met this lunatic face to face.

On the other side, Nightwing had already reached the aqueduct closest to the reservoir, and just as he was about to report to Batman that he had arrived, he was slightly taken aback by the scene that greeted him.

A girl with long brown curly hair was standing at the water pipe with her back to him, humming a short but sad melody softly, and when she heard the sound of him falling to the ground, she turned her head slowly, it was a A girl with a sweet face and a sweet smile on her face.

The girl looked at him with a smile, her red lips parted slightly: "Good evening, do you want to take a walk here, sir?" As she spoke, she raised her hand, and lit up the rather inconspicuous little hand in her hand. remote control.

At the same time, facing Batman standing not far in front of him, the clown maintained a weird smile that always showed his teeth and gums because he lost the protection of his face, and said: "...you will decide to do it, use it." You hid under the cloak, and the hand hidden behind your back threw a batarang at me, just like last time..."

"Then, I got hit! I fell to the ground, but so what? You can't stop me from pressing the remote control, just like this one in my hand!" The clown took out a seemingly inconspicuous remote control , laughed and said: "I press the remote control, and then you will call your little friend, the first Robin... now called Yeyi, right?"

"He should be at the aqueduct now, am I right?"

The next moment, when he was about to press the remote control in his hand, his hand was hit by a bat dart, and the remote control was instantly sent flying. However, bad news still came from Batman's built-in earphones.

"Batman, I've reached the aqueduct, but here—"

"Ugh!"

Accompanied by Ye Yi's cry of pain, there was also a huge explosion that shook the sky.

The clown laughed wildly: "Oh, do you think you are the only one who has diners that make you weak? I also have annoying little monsters that eat me hahahaha——!"

"Look, the last time we fought, you saved the whole city, and there was a group of people who pumped the poisoned water before it was sent to the city. Interestingly, a few of those people seemed to die In the hands of those... old birds? Owls? Anyway, a group of annoying birds, this is really a pity, without a few people, the game is not fun enough."

"But it doesn't matter, they tore down the surrounding houses after that and built a high-end apartment for a group of arrogant dudes-you know, I thought they looked like people I would arrest, so this time I I started early..."

"Look!" Amidst the clown's loud laugh, Batman rushed to the bridge, looked down, and saw slowly floating corpses.

He turned around abruptly and rushed towards the clown: "You perverted lunatic!"

"Ahahahaha——" The clown unhurriedly picked up the remote control that had been knocked down, pressed the remote control of the explosive device that was not connected to the aqueduct, and immediately ejected a bomb with a Dentures with long metal cords shot toward Batman.

Looking at Batman who was firmly bound by the metal rope and had to kneel on the ground, the clown smiled triumphantly: "Don't worry, we can talk about other things, I mean, we can finally talk, only Me, and my king."

The author has something to say: Irresponsible Little Theater:

Dick: in?So you're looking for me just because I'm more obedient?What kind of scumbag parent are you?

Bruce: ...obedience is a good quality in a child, Dick.

Jason and Damian who didn't appear in this chapter: Hehe.
