Dressed in a superhero shell to save the world [Comprehensive British and American]

It was past midnight, and heavy clouds still hung over the city. The originally fine and soft raindrops gradually turned into heavy raindrops, shrouded in red and blue neon lights, and painted a colorful picture scroll on the windshield of the Batmobile.

The road in front of him is also refracted in a weird and twisted way, as if the night of stars and moon described by Van Gogh, the rotating and restless rain curtain is swallowing the whole world.

Moses' foot was on the gas pedal.

A Riddler in front of him who was emitting a striking green light couldn't dodge it in time, but was pushed away by the Batmobile's electrostatic device fiercely, fell heavily to the ground and lost consciousness.

But this guy won't die.

Batman doesn't kill, and the truth is, only those who are good at it know how to hit enemies hard without taking their lives, just like only those who know all the answers can avoid all of them in a multiple choice exam without landing a single question. Correct answers get zero points on the test paper.

He knew how to wring the bones of criminals so they could only kneel and howl to tell the truth, and he knew how to steer a car so that the tires were within a thin line of a human head about to be crushed.

Often just a little bit off.

Pull the hemp rope on the heads of those who deserve to be hanged, and bring the criminals to the trial platform.

He was tried with them.

Dick's voice came over the radio channel inside the Batmobile: "...Batman? Are you listening? I know you are. The Scarecrow has captured the CEO of the Stagg Group. The fear gas bombing in the ACE factory is for It was designed to kill you. In addition, they used a new technology called cloud explosion, which can not only cover the entire city with poisonous gas, but also disable any electrical facilities including the Batmobile. Tan will completely turn into a dead city."

"I found the kidnapped Simon Stagg, but the technology in his hand has been taken away by the Scarecrow. The first stage of the cloud explosion may be released at any time. We need your help..."

"Looks like your first bird didn't do too well. Why isn't he staying in Bludhaven?"

The news of the clown's figure disappeared, and the voice reappeared in Moses' mind, as if it was a bad omen.

"I see. He wants you to help. You must go, don't you? What if the little blue bird dies in the poison gas?"

"Oh, you don't have to go either."

"Maybe it's an illusion, like a murder scene created in a circus with blood bags and plastic prosthetics. And Miss Gordon, is she dead or not? Looks like you can only choose one of the two."

"..."

"Robin Bird said Barbara was fine, but he didn't look very reliable. And Alfred, what did the old man say? Even I can't stand it, why does he say he never taught you ?”

"..."

"Bruce, hahahaha, Bruce Wayne, are you real? Did the Joker see Batman, or did Batman see the Joker?"

Moses slammed on the brakes.

The clown and the clown's voice rolled out of his head.

The eyes of the man in the rearview mirror briefly returned to steel blue.

The neon lights and heavy rain disappeared, the glass of the car became transparent again, the orange street lights illuminated the asphalt road, and the black debris left by the burning debris on the street fluttered softly and slowly in front of the Batmobile.Arkham Knight stood at the corner covered by the light, looking up at the moths dancing in the rain under the light, he did not know how long he waited.

They stared at each other through the car window in silence, and then Moses opened the door and jumped out.

Arkham Knight turned to look at him. "The four clown poison patients you held at Panisha Studios committed suicide."

The clown jumped over and said in surprise, "When did this happen? Harry must be very sad."

Arkham Knight: "Although I don't know what the hell it is, Robin said they are trying to purify the gene pool, and now you are the last remaining clown, Bruce."

"Oh!" The clown suddenly realized, "That's what happened, they did a good job, but of course I'm on your side, Bat. They want to kill you, so I'll let these scumbags not trouble you, How about it, am I the most worry-free partner you have ever met?"

"who are you?"

Arkham Knight observed him carefully: "You really don't remember anything, Bruce."

The young man opened the mask on his head.

An indescribable shiver ran up Batman's spine.

confusion.fear.

He almost backed away.

"Jason? But you... aren't you dead?"

"I lied." The clown whispered affectionately, "Guess what happened?"

Another hallucination.

He fell into the black space.

The child was suspended from the ceiling.

beaten.plead.

boom.boom.boom.

Beating with sticks, like people washing clothes in ancient times.

"..."

"I'm not dead, Bruce!" Arkham Knight approached him, "Think about how we got here! Be sober!"

The clown said: "Be a little bit human, Batman, look at this kid, look at the scar in the shape of the letter J on his face, and he's trying to save you."

"...I saw him kill you." Moses said unconsciously, "In the Middle East, we were investigating the clown and looking for your mother."

"I knew it." Tim's anxious voice came from Jason's earphones, "It seems that the clown has already killed you in Bruce's perception. But the clown is lying, you are not only alive but also brainwashed by him Against Batman, there are only a few ways this madman can control people, think of Harley Quinn."

Jason didn't want to hear his name being compared with Harley Quinn at all. He was very sure and certain that at least he would not fall in love with the Joker.

vomit.

What a disgusting devil's assumption.

"That's fake." He slowed down his voice, trying to evoke another memory of Batman, "I did go to the Middle East, but I was with the Arsenal and Starfire, nothing happened. After I came back, I went to the Court of Owls, Do you remember Nightwing's cruel words? And the thing about Damian wearing your neckless armor to save people?"

In fact, it may not be easy for Batman, but it is much simpler than everything the other side is facing now.

Jason tried to keep his tone light-hearted and nonchalant.

He now knew what was causing the pain in his bones.

But so what?

Is this Batman's fault?Is this not yet another crime of the clown?

'I'm not going to interfere with anything you do if it's not necessary. '

That's what Batman said to Jason when they first met.

--It was my fault.

The older man was tactfully apologizing to the boy who had escaped his ordeal.

—I didn't want to be alone, so I involved young innocent children in a crazy game.

Batman refused anyone to be Robin for a long time.

—I must be crazy.

He is blaming himself.

But any intelligent life is instinctively chasing light.When the Bat-Lights bring light to the city at night, none can illuminate Batman's black cape.

"..."

Clown: "Wrong, wrong, Batman! You have to accept reality! Shake your watery mind, am I going to lie to you? Well, even if I told a little lie before, you should now Find out who's on your side. Why don't you ask him why, Bruce?"

Moses: "What are you telling me about this?"

"I'm fine, and the Prophet is fine." Jason emphasized, "Everyone is alive and well, you don't need to go—to drive a tank and fight a scarecrow to the death. You never kill people, so don't you even forget this? ?”

Yes, after reasonable inference, people feel that Batman's target is undoubtedly the Scarecrow.

The question is, after the Joker's gene pool has been purified and purified, can Batman still hold himself in check?

Is he going to catch criminals, or is he going to kill his enemies?

If Bruce made a move, he might lose control completely.

No one dared to take the risk.

"Hahahaha!" The clown was overjoyed. "The news is outdated, kid! Tell him, Bruce, how you killed the clown!"

"The clown is dead." Moses said abruptly, "I destroyed the clown's treatment pod, and he died."

Jason was taken aback.

Reflecting on Batman's words, he suddenly shuddered.

An inexplicable impulse made him ask: "Then why...why was the clown still alive when you thought he killed me?"

"I want to do it." The man's voice was so cold that it was almost cold. "Superman received an order from the government to stop me, and then the clown disappeared in the explosion. After calming down, I realized that I can't kill people, otherwise order will cease to exist."

The above does not refer to the Order of Gotham.

But his own.

He didn't say this to defend himself, he continued: "Now that the clown is dead, you have to stop me from looking for the scarecrow."

Jason caught his subtext.

Batman didn't even deny that he wanted to kill Jonathan Crane.

... This is the cruelest joke of the evening.

"You won't." With the red helmet covering his face again, Jason raised his pistol|gun to aim, "Think about why you persisted until today, Batman. I'll let you talk to the Prophet, you calm down first."

However, it took him half a second to fiddle with the communicator with his head down.

When I looked up again, there was no one in front of me.

"You have to get out of there, Jason." Ye Yi said, "The cloud burst has already started."

"Damn it! It's hard to find his position!"

"We still have a chance. Bruce knows about the cloud explosion, and he will find a way to avoid it."

**

James Gordon's biggest achievement today was picking up Batman at the gate of the police station.

It sounds outrageous.

The reality is also outrageous.

The airdropped yellow poisonous gas smog floats among the high-rise buildings, like a sandstorm that will never go away, turning the originally bustling city into a hell on earth.The cloud explosion blocked the communication facilities, and everyone was trapped in the room with nothing to do, almost giving up hope of survival.Just then, Commissioner Gordon picked up Batman.

The word 'picking up' was used because when the director saw him, the man was soaked and curled up on the beam outside the window, wrapped in a cloak, and looked like a large garbage bag at first glance. When 'Garbage Bag' spoke, his voice was hoarse and dull: "In the trunk of the Batmobile are rescued police officers from the ACE factory."

"..." Gordon opened the window to let him into the house in fear, "How can your car still move if the electrical equipment fails? Why don't you come over from the driveway of the police station?"

"I got the mitigant for the cloudburst." Batman explained succinctly, without saying how he crossed the poisonous fog to do it, "Walking through the driveway will be spotted by other police officers, I don't want Robin They know I'm here."

Gordon speculated: "You don't want to put young people in danger."

"...This is one thing." Batman replied, barely standing upright, "There are two things in total. I need to see Ivy the Poison Ivy. Now she is the only one who can relieve the poisonous gas in the city. In addition, I want to Talk to you, Jim."

"Talk about what?"

"The world you came from. I need to know more."

Another exchange of less than 10 minutes.

Batman looked dazed.He read two sentences from two relatives and friends whom he valued.

Alfred said: I never got the chance to see you grow up.

Commissioner Gordon said: Gotham has no history with Wayne.

"sounds good."

He finally asked a question.

"Suppose, Jim, that Barbara Gordon . . . is caught by a scarecrow and she dies—"

The old director's sharp eyes met him: "Is this a hypothesis?"

"I think so."

"That's probably because she's working for you, Batman, I can't help but beat you up."

This is a joke.

But not like a joke.

Batman said: "I know, I won't let this happen."

at all costs.

——He gradually realized the path he was going to take.
