American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

After Gordon and Batman left the chapel underground, they both seemed a little silent. After all, in the place where they were just now, in just one month, dozens of lives were buried.

Gotham is a dark city, but when this kind of darkness is naked in front of people, only people with strong willpower can digest the impact of this deep darkness.

There are countless emotions surging in the hearts of Batman and Gordon. The first case of a new Batman, this seemingly endless evil, lightless darkness before him, he suddenly realizes that, as Schiller said, he may not be fully prepared. .

Strong force is only a means to survive here, but to save this city, force alone is not enough.

Just thinking about it, Batman turned a corner and saw Schiller standing on the second floor again, holding an umbrella. Below the balcony is where the beggar once stayed.

Batman felt a sense of absurdity again. This **** criminal who killed dozens of innocent lives, how dare he stand here? Why in this world are some people who can be indifferent to the fresh life? Even cruel enough to kill them without hesitation.

Batman's inner depression turned into anger. Under Gordon's gaze, he jumped up along the street and directly onto the balcony more than two meters high.

"Your trial is coming, **** murderer," Batman said.

"Have you found the evidence you were looking for?" Schiller asked

"Of course, and this evidence is enough to judge you."

Schiller suddenly laughed, and he said in a very light tone: "How ridiculous, you are still thinking about trying me, the police department in Gotham City should give you a good citizen medal, you are really great police."

"If only when your parents died, there were such great police officers who found the evidence left by the murderers and tried them, how good would it be? You think so, right?"

"You don't trust the police or the court, but you still look for evidence and try to use the correctness of the judiciary to try me. Don't you think what you've done is very contradictory?"

"You have to prove that I broke the law, Batman, and your actions have also broken the law. If I will be tried, so will you. You are using criminal behavior to prove that a criminal is a criminal, aren't you?"

Schiller raised his voice and said in a cadence: "You think you have the ability to avenge the criminals by your own means. But in the end, you are still ordinary people who have been domesticated by this orderly society. You are still giving evidence and making demands. Judgment."

"If you can't let go of these, the shackles that these orderly societies put on you, and the concepts of the law and the judicial process in your mind, you'll never be able to get the justice you want. "

"Bruce..." Schiller looked into his eyes and said:

"The law is not justice, you are."

"Gotham's law didn't save your parents, just like it didn't save the dozens of missing people. If you have any senseless fantasies about it, you'll never be the real Batman."

Schiller could clearly see that Batman's arms were trembling, his hand holding the bat dart was covered with blue veins, and even his entire body was shaking. Obviously, he became extremely angry.

Schiller's words were too harsh. He exposes one of the biggest inconsistencies of the young Batman.

Gotham's laws failed to save his parents, but Batman, who kept saying that he wanted revenge, was still kidnapped by the order of things. In the end, he still followed justice.

"You want me to do my justice?" Batman asked. Then he raised a gun and pointed it at Schiller's forehead.

Of course Batman has a gun. In Gotham City, you can hardly survive without this hot weapon. Not to mention any justice.

Schiller still looked calm. He said: "You haven't answered my previous question. Did you find the evidence you were looking for? What was that?"

"There are stains left by you on the side of the crate under the chapel. There are dirt and leaves, the leaves of the Korean pine that are only found in Gotham University."

Schiller said, "What does that represent?"

"It means you are the murderer," Batman said.

"Really? I appeared on the streets of Mawson Street by myself for no reason, dressed and acted suspiciously. And you found a leaf belonging to Gotham University at the crime scene, indicating that the murderer may be Gotham University. So I am the murderer, what a rigorous reasoning," Schiller said.

Batman looked at his unrepentant and guiltless expression, his understated tone, his anger had really reached its peak, and just as he was about to pull the trigger, Gordon ran over and shouted: " Stop it! Put the gun down!"

Batman was interrupted for a moment, and Schiller threw a USB stick on the ground between them and said:

"The evidence is conclusive? The murderer has been to Gotham University, and I am a university teacher. It is very conclusive."

"Yeah, how much do you wish that when your parents died, someone would just shoot the murderer neatly like you are now, because the evidence is solid."

"Don't mention my parents..." Batman said in a trembling voice, "You criminal."

"You think of a lot of similarities," Schiller said.

"But your anger ignores more, more differences."

"For example, I have never had any educational background related to chemistry and biology. For example, I have participated in the investigation of countless serial murders. The anti-investigation awareness is not so bad that I can't even clean up footprints. More importantly..."

Schiller looked at the USB flash drive and said, "My evidence is more conclusive than yours."

Batman's anger dropped a little because of Gordon's interruption, and after regaining his senses, he felt that even in this wet and cold weather, sweat soaked the shirt on his back.

Batman cautiously picked up the USB drive, he inserted the USB drive into the microcomputer in his arm, and a projection popped up.

At this time, Gordon also took a detour and ran into the balcony. He saw in the video, a man in a plaid shirt sneakily stood on the outdoor unit of a household's air conditioner, stuck a hose into the window, and the house The standing and sitting figures in the room fell down one after another, and after the man jumped off the air conditioner, he walked into the corridor. After a while, he dragged two large boxes, put them on the trailer, and pushed them away. , and the people in the house have disappeared.

This is Batman's inspiration for Schiller. Jonathan really lacks anti-investigation awareness. Schiller was standing in the corridor of the building opposite him, shooting with a camera, but he didn't even notice it.

But also, no one in Gotham City will come out to hang out in the middle of the night, especially if they come to such a slum, they will lose their lives if they are not careful.

Gordon suddenly shouted, "No wonder!"

"I remember that when registering the addresses of the missing persons, it was indeed the lower-floor residents who suffered more, and almost all of the victims' houses had balconies..." Gordon said.

Then he looked at Batman and Schiller, and he said angrily to Batman, "I really misread you, did you just want to shoot? Do you know that you almost killed someone?!"

Batman silently looked at the projection on his arm. Anyone who was not blind could see that the murderer inside was 108,000 miles away from Schiller.

Although Schiller doesn't know how to fight and doesn't exercise, he is still tall, only a little shorter than Batman, and a little thinner, but it's still close to 1.9 meters, and the man in the video is only 1.9 meters tall. Mi Qi, weighing no more than 60 kilograms.

"Professor Jonathan is a good old man, that's what you think, right? Because he doesn't check homework, treats you well, and will never fail your class. But I'm different, I'm a very troublesome professor, always in Picking faults in homework, taking exams when they have nothing to do, and threatening all students with the possibility of failing their courses.”

"So of course I'm the murderer, and he's not. After all, how can such a cowardly, taciturn, thin and small person be a serial murderer?"

"Stop talking." Batman said in a trembling voice.

He recalled the scene when he faced the beggar that day. Out of the corner of his eyes, he could still see the stains left by the beggar leaning against the wall. The strong sense of guilt and shame surrounded him again.

And Gordon added fuel to the fire when he said: "I don't care where you're a weirdo, wearing a straitjacket to cause trouble in the city, but you almost killed a good guy. What the **** do you two have? If you have If you have a personal feud, you can solve it yourself, and don't interfere with the police handling the case."

"Aren't the police in Gotham City busy enough? You want to kill someone in front of me because you want me to put you in jail immediately?" Gordon said.

Several days of overtime had already made him feel irritable, and he said impatiently: "The weirdo in tights, give me that USB, I'll take it back for the record... This gentleman, please come back with me, you Seems to know who the murderer is, we need clues..."

After a while of silence, Batman silently stretched out his arm and handed the USB flash drive to Gordon.

He found that his smug debut trip was completely adding to the chaos. He thought the criminal Schiller was the one who helped a lot and provided the most crucial evidence.

Schiller didn't speak anymore, Batman also stood there, and the street outside began to rain endlessly again.

Just as he was about to follow Gordon away, he heard Batman behind him say, "...Sorry, Professor."

Schiller's footsteps stopped, he felt a little incredible, what did Batman just say? ? ?

He just apologized? ? ?

Schiller turned his head in disbelief, Batman stood in the shadow cast by the building, the only light shining on his mask, he pursed his lips tightly, Schiller felt very absurd.

He is Batman.

Because he is Batman.

And Batman is always right.

Batman won't apologize to anyone.

In the face of everyone's doubts, he would only say: "Because I am Batman."

In the Batman comics, Schiller has seen too much about the dark side of Batman, such as preparing kryptonite to guard against Superman, such as preparing a plan for everyone in the Justice League to deal with them, he seems to distrust any Man doesn't even trust himself.

It has to be said that when the editor of the comics created this character, these dark sides made him more attractive. It can also leave a deeper impression on readers.

But this also caused Schiller to have a prejudice against Batman.

He thinks Batman should be like that, in the comics. Batman never apologises because he doesn't think he's at fault, he thinks the precautions against his companions are necessary.

This has created a prejudice for Schiller. It's not that Batman will not apologize. When he really finds out that he is wrong, he will still feel regret and guilt.

Schiller really wanted to teach the young Batman some principles, such as not to be prejudiced, not to judge people by appearance, not to be carried away by anger, and to keep independent thinking.

But Schiller suddenly found that he was not qualified to teach Batman not to be prejudiced, because he himself had an indelible stereotype about the character, and he hoped that Bruce could become the bat in the comics in his mind. Man, and the faster the process, the better.

But now it seems that this story is not a wise and learned professor and his young and reckless students, but a very classic "Pride and Prejudice".

With the absolute arrogance of his own reasoning, Batman thought that Schiller must be the murderer. When he had preconceived prejudice and some evidence that just matched the prejudice, he almost shot Schiller.

But Schiller also has a prejudice against Batman, believing that he should be the old-fashioned, cautious and suspicious dark hero in the comics.

The two of them didn't say that they laughed at a hundred paces, but they could also say that they were half a catty and eighty-two.

Now Batman seems to have learned this lesson, and he clearly realizes that he is not omnipotent.

His reasoning will also be bound by prejudice and thus produce great fallacies, and his impulses are even more deadly under this arrogance.

He saw the scar on the side of Schiller's neck, which he had left with a bat dart earlier. At that time, he assumed Schiller was a criminal and threatened him in the same way as a criminal, although he did not shoot today, But like Gordon said, the wound was deep, and I'm afraid there must be a scar.

Batman felt guilty about this and was very scared.

He thought that the fact that the law cannot properly judge every criminal is not the reason for him to arbitrarily judge others with his own arrogance.

And in the case that he cannot guarantee that he is 100% correct, any impulsive violence may leave an indelible scar on an innocent person, even a good person.

He was just rejoicing, fortunately, the price that innocent people paid was not life.

Standing in the shadows, Batman thought that he wanted to prevent this possibility forever, so he decided that he would never kill no matter how vicious criminals he faced in the future.

If any innocent person is wrongfully killed in his hands, then he will become a more heinous criminal than killing his parents.

Because the criminals who killed his parents, maybe just for money or revenge, the damage they caused was two lives.

And if Batman kills innocent people indiscriminately, then the city will have no hope.

In the comics, the setting that Batman does not kill seems to have existed from the beginning.

Schiller did not investigate why this was, and he felt that the setting was wrong and very irritating. For example, in the face of those nasty criminals, those lunatics who have escaped from prison again and again, why can't Batman kill them? He had thought about it countless times when he was reading comics.

But what he didn't expect was that in this world, it was because of him, and because of Schiller, that the young Batman firmly believed that he would not kill criminals.

Because he's Batman, he's the city's only hope, and if he's overwhelmed by the guilt of killing innocent people, the city will be completely helpless.

By coincidence, although Schiller failed to let the young Batman establish his own spiritual support, he successfully completed a setting of Batman, that is, not to kill.

Schiller would never have imagined that he would regret his meddling this time countless times in the days to come.

When Batman fully matured, Schiller roared in his heart countless times, why can't Batman move his fingers to strangle those **** criminals, so that they don't appear in front of him again and again Break his peaceful life!

And all of this stemmed from today's events, and it was all his own fault.
