[Batman] I, The Joker, how is that possible?

Chapter 20: Where's Batman?

Batman stood on the top of a tall spire, overlooking his city, the rain flowed down the black mask, wet the pursed lips and firm chin.

If someone on the street looks up at the sky at this moment, they will be amazed at the black figure at the junction of the sky and the ground, as if blending with the dark sky, but for some reason, it does not appear depressing.

Batman came for an invitation, there was no exact time, no exact place, but he came anyway.Standing in this silent summer rain, maybe it has been an hour, maybe several hours, time is meaningless at this moment, because he has enough patience.

Behind him the black cloak was wetted into a reflective veil, like a bird's feathers.

Pedestrians on the road in twos and threes are covered by umbrellas of different shapes and colors.Batman's sharp eyes like a goshawk scanned the surroundings, studying the pedestrians under each umbrella, their gender, identity, and occupation.

Suddenly, Batman felt that someone was watching him, and he turned his head abruptly, only to see a figure holding a black umbrella gradually receding, and his uncovered lower body was wearing a pair of black suit pants.

Joker can be everyone here, Joker can be no one, this is the charm of rainy days.

Earlier today, Bruce squeezed a piece of cold bread and rushed into his suit, which is simply unique!Given that Alfred would never let his young master go to work without breakfast.

"Where are you going, Master Wayne! It's daytime!" Alfred walked in from the living room, unable to believe what he saw.

"Fight criminals and defend my city." Batman said succinctly, controlling the Batmobile to rise from the ground.

"But you still have a meeting and a banquet today!" The meeting is in the morning, and the banquet is in the afternoon, all of which are clearly recorded in Alfred's itinerary for the day. Since he is tired enough fighting criminals as Batman at night, Alfred is willing to replace Master Wayne shared his worries and problems.

"Then delay them." Batman said bluntly as he slowly opened the cockpit.

"This is a meeting that cannot be postponed." Standing beside the Batmobile, Alfred shook his head in disapproval. "The shareholders have been preparing for this for a month."

"Very well, find an excuse for my absence." The gauges lit up, and Batman pushed the joystick without hesitation, and he promised the butler goodbye: "Goodbye, Alfred, I'll be back as soon as possible."

Watching the image of the Batmobile quickly disappearing from view, Alfred stood there and sighed helplessly.He had a vague premonition in his heart that there was only one person who could make the young master so "active".

So when Yunhai got up from the bed, Batman had already appeared on the top of the spire.When the sea of ​​clouds threatened Fisher, Batman was waiting hungry, and when the first explosion sounded--

The black shadow jumped down, gliding among the tall buildings, like a black ghost across the sky, or the shadow of the city projected in the dark sky.

Batman quickly and silently approached the site of the explosion.

The door of the library was open, and the person who had invited him must have left, as expected, as expected.Batman had only glanced at it before heading into the library, if he hadn't seen the locket on the stairs.

It was an ordinary gift box, only 15*15cm in size, with a card placed on it.

"Only Batman can open it."

...As if Batman didn't see those words, he turned the card over with a blank expression, and there was a line written on it:

"Two things you're looking for are in there, go to 302 and you'll get the extras."

Perhaps out of self-confidence, he opened the gift box without hesitation, and Batman got——

A piece of UFO that directly slammed into his face?

Before that, Batman intercepted the UFO. It was a hamburger from a certain McDonald's branch, and it had been bought for a while from the temperature.

that is it?No, there must be fraud in it.Batman carefully studied the burger 3 times, from the beginning to the end, from big to small, he studied every sesame seed, all of them were of uniform size, and they were randomly arranged on the soft bun.

Every vegetable leaf of Study, aha, every piece is very fresh, with cheese on it.

Each piece of beef in Study has a uniform texture. Judging from the meat quality, it should be produced in a famous beef factory in Gotham.

Research over and over again, still nothing.Everything looks so normal, but also extremely suspicious.

Joker simply gave himself a hamburger?Batman himself can't believe it!In short, further research is required to go to the laboratory.Batman thought about putting away the burger.

He looked up at the open door and walked in slowly. At this moment, there was a second loud noise!Without thinking, Batman rushed to the source of the sound.

At first, he thought it was another explosion, but the voice was deeper, but soon Batman realized that he was very wrong.What appeared before his eyes was an extremely absurd scene.

He saw the person in charge was tied to a chair with his head bowed, with a few fresh scars on his face, but his whole body was covered by ribbons!Those colorful streamers are sprayed everywhere, just like a birthday party!

But under the seemingly festive appearance, there is a deep malice hidden, because not everyone is born personal, at least Fisher himself is like this.

At dusk, a long cordon was erected on Yanan Street, and several police cars with flashing blue lights were parked at the street corner.The passers-by returning home stretched their necks like a group of partridges gathered on the pier to look at the area within the cordon, guessing what new violence had happened.

"Maybe someone is taking drugs again. These young people are really not as good as the next generation! Think about our era!" An old woman beat the ground vigorously with a cane and shook her head. She thought that the violence in the past few days was somewhat He said indignantly: "Those gangsters who sell drugs should all be dragged out and shot!"

"Shoot what? He is a sponsor of the government." The girl next to her pouted and said.

"This time it's really not about drugs and gangsters." A young man with yellow hair listened to the conversation between the two of them and said mysteriously, "Do you know Fisher Elliott? He is responsible for drafting the law." The expert, or the director of our library, he, it seems that because of corruption—"

"Don't spread rumors! Don't spread rumors!" A yawning police officer noticed the commotion here, and walked over waving an electric baton. The three of them who had just discussed a few words immediately shut their mouths, although they all complained in their hearts. : What a rumor.

And standing behind them, the tall and thin man who had been silently eavesdropping suddenly said, "Sir."

He pointed to the library not far away, which had already been stopped by the warning tape at this moment, and asked curiously: "May I ask what happened in front? I still have books to return."

"No comment, you can't pay back your books today, and someone will take over later." As soon as the police officer finished speaking, he saw his colleague walking out with someone covered in ribbons, who looked like a Christmas tree.

"Why was he beaten so severely?" The police officer rushed forward a few steps, helping his colleague to support Fisher, who was beaten into a pig's head, and looked at the swollen man who couldn't see his eyes clearly. His face looked rather frightened.

"Is it not serious to be bombed by Joker and Batman in turn? Hey, which villain in our Gotham can get this honor!" His colleague gloated, then thought of something, and reminded: "I advise Don't get involved this time."

"what happened?"

"No, look over there."

Looking at where his colleagues pointed, their hard-working chief Gordon was trying to appease a group of ragged boys and girls, ranging in age from 8 or 9 to 13,4 or [-] years old, but none of them looked like adults .

His colleague revealed in a low voice: "They were all rescued from Room 302 of the library, and the one with the most has been locked up for these years." The colleague said and raised five fingers.

The police officer's face suddenly became ugly.

After his colleague walked away, he bowed his head and quickly edited a text message: "I won't answer the business this time, you can find someone else." He still has a little conscience in his heart, but he thinks this is too much.

The person who spoke to him seemed to be standing next to the phone, and gave a reply almost at the same time as he sent: "Double reward."

Before the police officer refused, another text message came: "Don't worry about Batman, he will be very, very busy next time."

After staring at the screen for three seconds, the police officer gave in with a helpless sigh.He put his mobile phone in his uniform jacket pocket, and when he looked up, he saw the person who said he wanted to return the book at the beginning was looking at him with a strange look.

"Hey, what to do, don't gather here." Another person who was overly curious, the police officer made a hissing sound and tried to drive him away.

In fact, it was not necessary at all. The tall and thin man with green hair stared at him for a few times before turning around and leaving spontaneously, holding a mask with his hand in his trouser pocket.

That tall and thin man is Yunhai.She knew how fragile the occasional kindness was, like ice crystals falling on the ground, flower petals falling to the sky, and butterfly wings being plucked.

Beautiful, indeed, but also extremely fragile, so fragile that people wonder if it really exists, or is it just an illusory dream of ours, or wishful self-deception.

Even without the sea of ​​clouds pushing, these snowflakes will melt into water before dawn, the petals will be smashed into mud when the rain comes, and the wings of the butterfly will disappear without a trace before the butterfly dies Without a trace, leaving behind a distorted body.

Look, this is human nature.

When the rain stopped, one person and one system walked slowly along the dark river, at this moment Yunhai suddenly said: "If you think about it this way, the clown is really pitiful."

The system tactfully made no sound.

"He talks about the despicableness of human nature, but deep down he hopes that he is wrong. It's a pity to test human nature over and over again. Doesn't he know that human nature cannot stand the test?" Human nature is terribly disappointed, without expectations, naturally there will be no disappointment.

"The repeated failures made him even more disappointed in human nature, until he met Batman, an opponent who has withstood all the tests and passed the level one by one, a perfect natural enemy." Yun Hai even felt a little jealous of the clown when he said this.

"The relationship between these two people is really contradictory. Because of Batman, the clown was saved from completely degenerating into a mindless lunatic, but he went further and further on the road of madness. Batman was separated from other people because of the existence of the clown" "The Messenger of Justice" stood out, but he could never return to the identity of a normal person."

"Those who gaze into the abyss will be swallowed by the abyss." Yun Hai sighed and finally made a conclusion.

These two are like two sides of the same coin, the Joker won't let Batman go, and Batman won't let the Joker go, even though he doesn't realize it.

So sad that they were destined to be entangled.

"It's all just your guesswork."

"Yes, you are right." Yun Hai did not deny this point, but frankly nodded and admitted it.

One person and one system walked quietly along the river to the public rental housing.

The sun went down, the street lamps came on, and the slowly flowing river water included the entire Milky Way and the lights made by humans, turning them into shimmering and broken lights.The system can capture the sound of the river, as subtle and soft as the breathing of a sleeping person.

At this moment, the system heard the host humming a song, and the following is what it heard:

"Youshine a light on my dark side but you, don't care what you see."

The author has something to say: strongly push the song lockmeup, so I can hear the explosion
