The expression on West's face was impeccable.

The rescue plan at that time was designated by Bruce, which combined the abilities of all people. If there were no mistakes, the clown should be successfully caught.

And he didn't think there would be any mistakes in the middle.

Bruce took a deep look at West, the expression on West's face was indeed guilty, and this boy almost sacrificed himself to save others just now.

So Bruce looked at Tony and Clark again, and Tony and Clark had normal expressions.

In fact, clowns can always do the unexpected.

Bruce sighed and shook his head: "He will always come out."

The clown is always restless, he can't be quiet for too long.

Seeing that the most suspicious Batman has shown his belief, the others naturally have nothing to say.

The guilt on West's face has not diminished in any way, and even increased - he is indeed guilty, but not for the reason everyone thinks.

Bruce gave him trust, but he cheated the other party.

But he really wanted to kill the Joker.

No one else would know about it, he could convince Clark, convince Tony...

He has reason.

West felt as if some little bug had gotten into his heart, and the bug was not light or heavy in his heart, making him itchy and uncomfortable, but he couldn't figure out where the source was.

He remained silent.

When the others heard that the clown hadn't been caught, they all sighed. Everyone knew that as long as the clown was still outside, it would be a big trouble.

Fury immediately arranged and began to hunt down the clown.

West didn't know what to say next. Although he looked confident, he was actually beating drums in his heart.

The Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. members briefed about the situation and then left. These people originally came for the clown, but now the clown was not caught and naturally prepared to leave.

Obviously, they were not among the audience for Bruce's interesting news.

When the irrelevant people left, only Bruce, Dick, West, Clark, Tony and Hall, who had been on his shoulders since West was kidnapped once, were left on the scene. After West found that Bruce was still Looking at information.

So he said tentatively, "What's the news for Mr. Wayne?"

Bruce raised his head and the first words were: "So the clown really ran away?"

West nodded, without thinking, acting perfectly qualified.

But Clark and Tony beside him had to keep quiet because of West's request-mandatory.

Batman can't have only one temptation, he always strikes suddenly when you think you can let your guard down.

So West has been prepared for a long time, and he has been preparing since he started to say that the clown ran away.

After the second trial, Bruce found no doubts. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he still believed him for the time being, so he said, "It seems that your tourists are not as safe and harmless as imagined."

"What?" West tilted his head.

"Gina Cavett." Bruce said, throwing a stack of documents in front of several people-the documents looked thin in Bruce's hands, but they were as thick as a book when they were put down, "A dead person who has been recorded. "

In a modern society, people have almost no privacy, and a person's whole life is only as thick as a book.

After experiencing the resurrection town, the word dead is the last thing West hears.

"She's a resurrected one?" West exclaimed in surprise.

"No, I am more inclined that she is not dead." Bruce spread out the thick book-like information, and then showed one of the pages to West, "Some kind of ability made her survive."

The woman in the photo was undoubtedly the one who was playing in his haunted house, but the moment she looked up, she revealed a pair of dark red eyes and sharp teeth.

That scene happened to be captured by a surveillance camera.

"Gina Cartwright, cancer, died three months ago," Bruce said. "There is no doubt that she is very interested in visiting the haunted house."

She's a... vampire?

West remembered how Gina came to the haunted house, she was wearing a hood to block the sun, but none of them cared.

"King also said that the person who cooperated with the clown called himself Cain." Bruce said, "He controls a powerful family. He released the clown and then specified that he wanted you."

West didn't know what to say—in fact, he didn't even know what expression to put on now.

Finally, he thought for a long time before making a decision.

"Thank you, help call Abel down and tell him that the person who killed him is coming." West said to Hall on his shoulder.

After a while, Abel returned to the hall. Hall should have told everything in advance. He didn't seem surprised and just said, "Cain is here?"

Bruce looked at this so-called ancestor of mankind with scrutiny, and even though he knew that his deadly enemy had come to New York, Abel didn't feel any loss.

"Yes," Bruce said, "Cain."

Abel sighed for a long time, and then said to West very guilty: "Sorry, boss, I brought you trouble."

West shook his head, the haunted house is in a lot of trouble, it's not bad.

He was even more curious, why would Cain target him?Shouldn't Cain have wanted to kill Abel more?

"Probably because you helped me." Abel said guiltily, "Cain really hates others helping me."

After he finished speaking, he showed a bitter face: "Sure enough, I still shouldn't expect to escape my fate. Maybe I should say goodbye, otherwise I will definitely drag you down."

Abel had just saved his life, and of course West wouldn't let him go.

So he didn't even think about it, and immediately said, "You are a haunted house employee, we are together, you can't go."

"boss……"

"Didn't you say that the haunted house is very special? Cain didn't come, but sent his subordinates, and he even asked the clown to catch me, which shows that he didn't dare to come by himself." West was quick to think, "So you are here It's safe here."

After speaking, he looked at Bruce with pleading eyes: "Am I right, Mr. Wayne?"

Whether it is true or not, it must be true at this time.

So Bruce nodded.

Under everyone's persuasion, Abel still agreed to stay temporarily.

"This news tells you, I hope you are mentally prepared." At the end of the topic, Bruce said to West, "I will be in New York during this time, looking for the clown."

West nodded, he was still a little guilty when it came to the clown.

After that Bruce was ready to leave with Dick, and they had a room ready at the best hotel in downtown New York,

"You haven't spoken, Tony." Before leaving, Bruce suddenly turned to Tony and said, "This doesn't look like you."

Bruce narrowed his eyes, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were suspicious.

He looked at Tony and then at Clark: "You don't talk to me either, do you not want to talk to me?"

West's heart suddenly raised again, and sure enough, he couldn't relax about Batman in the slightest.

In order not to let Tony and Clark reveal their secrets, the two of them did not speak a word the whole time.

It was weird—West knew it was weird, but there was only so much he could do.

And this strangeness can't escape Batman's eyes after all.

[Tell him there is nothing] West repeatedly emphasized in his heart, [Tell Bruce Wayne that there is nothing. 】

Tony opened his mouth: "It's okay, Holmes, I just don't want to talk to you."

Bruce was not shocked by this sentence, he just looked at Tony one more time, with a little doubt in his eyes.

And Clark also said, "It's okay, I just wondered where the clown has gone, I'm fascinated, and I'm a little distracted."

"Aren't you going? Are you going to stay for dinner?" Tony continued, "It's a pity that the owner of the haunted house is a cheapskate. There is only coffee at the average price in cents in the haunted house, but there is no food that meets the taste of the young master raised by the housekeeper."

Bruce twitched the corner of his mouth, and looked at Tony and Clark again and again, the look in his eyes made West's heart ache.

Batman doesn't know what the contract is about, he doesn't know what West is capable of.

So he still didn't see anything.

He greeted West and left under Tony's repeated urging.

It was not until Bruce left the haunted house that Tony and Clark were freed from the mandatory requirements.

Tony immediately shouted angrily: "Damn it."

"Tony..." West looked at Tony pitifully. He also knew that he had done something unethical, so he put on an apology first.

"You lied to Bruce!" Tony questioned West, "Why, West?"

"I……"

Before West decided what to say, Tony said first: "Don't tell lies, I want to listen to the truth, you can't lie to me."

"...I want to kill the clown..." West said vaguely, he had to kill the clown to complete the task.

Although his purpose may not be so clean, the result that his purpose can achieve is definitely good.

Clowns are meant to be.

Tony didn't come back to his senses for a moment, he looked at West: "What?"

"Tony, have you ever thought about it?" West adjusted his sitting posture, and then said seriously, "The clown is in our hands, we can kill him, and no one will be harmed by him after killing the clown. "

Tony's expression was calm: "You say it again?"

"I said we can kill Xiao..." Before West could finish speaking, Tony suddenly slapped him.

At the same time, Tony frowned as if he had been hit hard, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

The first rule of staff rules for haunted houses is that employees must not harm the owner of the haunted house.

But Tony didn't seem to feel it, he stood up straight and continued, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"I'll talk about the clown again..."

"You talk about killing!" Tony shouted, this is the first time in a long time that West has seen Tony so angry.

He looked like he was completely annoyed.

But Iron Man is not Batman, he has never been afraid of killing people.

"Tony, if I remember correctly, you have no principle not to kill." West said calmly.

"I really didn't." Tony lowered his voice and said angrily, "But you shouldn't say this! You are not a policeman, a soldier, a superhero, and an executioner! You are just a haunted house owner! An ordinary Haunted house owner! You shouldn't say murder in such a cold tone, West! You're just a child!"

Westerbryan, in his twenties, was really just a kid compared to Tony.

"You don't understand what it means to kill! God, you shouldn't have this idea!" Tony shouted angrily.

Everyone watched them arguing, which embarrassed West.

"Even if that person is a clown!" West looked at Tony in disbelief.

"Even if he's a clown!" Tony yelled, "I can say kill him, Nick Fury can say kill him, the Punisher can say kill him, but you can't! You didn't have blood on your hands, you don't Know what that means! Once something starts, there is no turning back!"

"It's just a clown." West felt that he was probably also irritated by Tony's attitude, "It's just a clown!"

"It's not the clown's problem!" Tony stared at West, his anger turned into calm in the end.

"If you insist," Tony said, "I'll stop you. I don't know why you suddenly thought of it, West, but if I knew you would, then..." Tony looked at Wes Te, "...I won't sign a contract with you."

West froze for a moment, and Tony looked at him with disappointment in his coffee-colored eyes, as if denying him—no, this was originally a denial.

He opened his mouth, trying to explain something, but he couldn't.

Tony also expected West to say something, but he saw that West hesitated to speak, and finally turned around in disappointment, left West, and went upstairs directly.

"You shouldn't think of West that much..." Clark, who had been silent all this time, said the same.

"You feel disappointed too?" West suddenly felt very angry.

He felt betrayed.

Just a clown, just a clown.

Before Clark could say anything, West took a step back: "Forget it, I don't want to hear it."

After he finished speaking, he turned and ran towards his room.

The haunted house belongs to him, and no one can catch him here as long as he wants.

Hall jumped on his shoulders and followed him back into the room.

Back in his room, West seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Thinking of Tony's appearance just now, he felt bored and flustered.

"Do you think I'm wrong too?" West said to Hall who was following him.

"Wrong? I don't kill, West." Hall said to him, "but I don't object to killing."

"I don't think there is anything wrong with killing people." At this time, a person appeared on the painting in West's room—usually Heyman would not come to West's room, but West was still in his own room. There is a painting in the room that allows the resentful painter to pass, so that the resentful painter has something to say to him.

The painting was placed not too far from West, just enough to not see the privacy of his room.

The painter complained that he had killed people, and he had killed people before.

His paintings represent death.

"You can ask Abel." Heyman said to West, "Believe me, Abel is not against killing people."

Abel is not a clean sheet of paper either—maybe he is in his mind, but his hands are not.

When meeting for the first time, the nomadic ancestor could nail people to the ground with a wooden stick without hesitation, and if it wasn't Batman's request when facing the clown, maybe he would draw a bow and put an arrow in the first place The clown shoots right through.

"If you want to kill him, kill him." Heyman said to him, "If you can't do it, I can help you kill him directly in the painting. It's my painting, and I can do whatever I want."

West remained silent: "That's the clown..."

"Listen to me, boss. Tony, Clark and we are not in the same world." Hall jumped on West's shoulder, "They may care about killing people, but we are different. We have a long life, and death is very important to us." It's something we see every day, so we don't care about clowns. So don't you realize what you have, West?"

"Those so-called superheroes will never understand that you are the owner of the haunted house, and you have absolute control here." Heyman continued, "If the clown makes you unhappy, just kill it. If those you recruited People who make you unhappy, just ask them to be obedient."

"But I never wanted to control you." West whispered.

Hall and Heyman looked at each other: "From the moment we signed the contract with you, we already recognized you as our master, otherwise, how could we have signed such a contract?"

West looked at Hall and Heyman in shock, and then he realized that the two of them were serious.

"You are different, West." Hall moved his nose, "This time it smells different than before, otherwise I wouldn't have talked to you."

Hall squatted next to West's neck, rubbing his cat's face affectionately.

"Yeah, you started to decide what to do by yourself instead of listening to those people, I'm very satisfied." Heyman curled his lips and said the same.

West didn't know how he felt, but a certain kind of happiness spread from his body and limbs at this moment.

The feeling like a worm in his heart reappeared, but this time not only his heart, but also his whole body began to feel the itching.

"I want to meet the clown." West raised his head, already having a decision in his heart, "and then decide what to do."

Heyman nodded, and obediently opened a way to West.

When West entered the painting, he saw the clown imprisoned in the prison.

"Hi, Hani." The clown greeted him, "Have you decided to kill me?"
