The Death Knell

The bat cave was quiet for a while, only the sound of tweezers and plates colliding, and the faint movement of bats flapping their wings in the dark.

But soon, when Alfred went upstairs to the mansion and came back with supper, Bruce still handed him a notebook and asked him to see what was written on the last page.

Putting on reading glasses and taking a look, the butler asked the young master who was eating.

Four months ago, the Riddler was hanged by death knell on the lamppost in front of the Gotham Police Station, and the bat logo was branded on his buttocks. This caused great psychological harm to Sigma, who has always claimed to be the smartest person in Gotham. It's been a long time since I stayed behind closed doors, as if my whole person has changed.

As Batman's butler, the old man certainly knew this. Although Death Knell's method was a bit cruel, it has to be said that letting the Riddler calm down had indeed purified Gotham's environment a lot.

The Riddler isn't as destructive as the Joker or Bane, but he's like a toad that sits on your shoe, non-biting but disgusting.

He will leave hundreds of riddles in the city, kidnap a hostage to make game chips, and Batman has to answer the questions if he wants to save people, and he can't make a mistake once.

When green question marks are painted everywhere in the city, then Batman can't think of doing anything else, just repeat the boring game with the Riddler all night long.

The billionaire gorges, he eats fast and the food is delicious.

He didn't choose to act with Constantine, because teaming up with that **** is obviously not good for his health. Batman prefers to go alone, so after sending Hell Detective away from Gotham, he officially took over the team. A clue, but now the difficulty was—he couldn't even type that name into the computer.

Every key on the keyboard is correct, but Alfred can't remember which keys, and the computer can't recognize the input information, but will directly report an error.

He tried to investigate ancient myths and stories, but the information he could find was too common and useless.

The butler wasn't surprised at all. He calmly returned the notepad to Bruce while gracefully helping to break down the lobster.

Without the uniform, it's the Bruce Wayne personality who calls the shots, and he likes to ask questions.

Alfred bowed slightly. As a housekeeper, even if he thought of something that the master didn't think of, he should not be proud, but should remain humble.

However, his method was obviously approved by Batman. Bruce's chewing speed slowed down, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it became.

Bruce hugged the butler's waist with one hand, and patted him on the back:

In fact, Batman doesn't think such a method is feasible. The guy who can influence people's thinking all the time may also have some control over the timeline.

But try it.

In addition, it's not that Batman doesn't care about this matter, the key is that after being injured, he must eat before leaving, otherwise Alfred will have to worry about it again.

The food I eat is really good, which is obviously expensive for most middle-class people, but the family never allows waste.

Money is true, but not extravagant.

The butler seemed to immediately come up with the lines he had prepared for a long time. He pushed away the young master's arm and went to the other end of the dining car to cut the after-dinner fruit:

Catwoman's face seemed to flash past Bruce's eyes, so he bit his lip and shook his head:

The butler sighed, there was no other way, whoever called the young master likes the thief cat?

Last time, relatives and friends were all there, and it turned out that Catwoman ran away on the wedding day. She listened to the joker's words and realized that she couldn't tell whether she loved Bruce or Batman.

She needs time to think about it, because anyone who knows the truth knows that Bruce is not Batman, and she can't love two men at the same time.

More importantly, the clown talked to her a lot. As a friend, she discovered too many things about her fiancé, which the clown knew but she didn't know.

She knew the men around her far better than him, so when the Joker cried and begged her not to take Batman away, it meant that a Batman with a stable life represented the death of the Dark Knight, and she ran away crying while covering her face. Lost.

Because Selena Kyle is a thief, not a robber.

But what happened in Gotham couldn’t be hidden from Batman. Afterwards, Batman also saw the conversation between the Joker and Catwoman. He also knew that Catwoman would know that he could see it, so the relationship between the two became a bit awkward. , is completely stuck here.

After taking a sip of the red wine that accompanies the meal, the rich man finished the food on the plate, took the pineapple cut by the housekeeper, ate it and said:

Alfred was unmoved, and instead told another British joke:

Having said that, Bruce stood up, wiped the fruit juice from the corner of his mouth, and walked quickly to the cylindrical locker room where he stored his uniforms, as if escaping:
