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

Chapter 56: Daydreaming

"Host, tell me, you already have an escape plan." Seeing the Scarecrow flicking his thorny whip in the air and then walking towards the host, the system said in despair.

"Okay, let me tell you, I already have an escape plan." Yun Hai perfunctorily changed the subject and repeated the words of the system.

"Why do I feel like you're lying to me?"

"Obviously you asked me to say that." Yun Hai looked at the whip thrown at him with dead fish eyes and responded to the system in his mind.

Being stabbed and whipped are two different things. The former is what Yunhai likes, and the pain is as sharp as a prairie fire. The latter... makes her wonder what kind of attitude the executioner has.

The smell of rot and blood mixed together, reminding Yunhai of the past.

The whipping was so vicious, when the barbed whip pierced the air and fell fiercely on the pale and thin arm, a small part of the skin was immediately thrown into the air, and the bright red bruises moved at an astonishing speed. Quickly covered that piece of skin.

Like a clump of dodder that feeds on human blood, it grew wildly on Yunhai's arm, and then covered most of his skin.In her empty embrace, a slanted red line clearly appeared on the muscle of her right upper arm.

Instinct made Yunhai flinch under the whip, but her will spurned it, which meant cowardly retreat. The will and instinct met each other, and the outcome was decided in an instant: instead of flinching, she went forward.

Reality is a good teacher, if you don't remember what it taught you, it doesn't matter, it won't care.Pay the price for not remembering, and pay the price over and over until you have nothing more to pay for.

Once you shrink back, it means that you have taken another step towards failure, and once you shrink back, it means that you have given up the territory under your feet.

That is what Yunhai learned from reality.

So straightforward and clear.

The sea of ​​clouds used to have a complete world, but now there is only the last ice floe left in the whole world.So this is where she is now:

Standing on the last resting place, like a desperate and crazy beast, it roared menacingly in all directions, with its white teeth bared, tearing everything that could be shredded.

Things always seemed to go like this, and when she learned to guard, what she longed to guard was gone, leaving only a useless torso.

Yunhai knew that this was unfair to everyone, because what everyone did was just push her a small step into the abyss, but some of them pushed her a few steps, and some of them took a step. .

But there is an impulse, a dark thought, taking root in Yunhai: she longs to destroy her/their life completely, she longs to destroy her/their life completely, to make him/them feel the pain she feels, to make him/them To feel the despair she felt.

But the saddest thing is that hatred devoured her heart, but the useless sense of justice prevented her revenge like a cage.

But Batsy is not like this, the moment Yunhai came into contact with him, she understood.

They are similar, both standing on the last ice floe left in their respective worlds, but they are different.Yunhai knew that Batman was such a person, no, to be precise, he was the only one, and there was no one like him in this world.

After experiencing the deep despair, what he desires most is not revenge but protection.Protect, even bless all people, so that the tragedy will never happen again.

After encountering the sea of ​​clouds, Batman decided to expand the scope of his protection until it touched the top of the former.

"You don't have to be alone anymore, let me help you."

Batman said so, and then Yunhai grabbed his hand, the grip was so tight, embedded in the flesh and blood, deep into the bone marrow.

Will Batsy regret it?Yunhai didn't know, she only knew one thing, and that was: even if he regretted it, she would never let him go.

So this is how they play, standing on two ice floes, exchanging each other's space, like two dancers, forward, backward, forward, backward, dancing between the square inches, just take a wrong step, the two Individuals have fallen into hell.

Their eyes are intertwined, their breaths penetrate each other.

But maybe this is the correct way to get along, as natural as breathing, if you regard inhalation as survival and exhalation as death.

"You're always desperate to bring out the good in people, especially when they're so depraved."

"Now you see it, but at your own expense."

Back to reality, Yunhai could see that his skin was damaged under dozens of whips, and in some places the epidermis was cracked, exposing the jelly-like muscles inside that were pulsating due to external stimulation, tissue fluid mixed with thin blood spread all over the place. on these wounds.And in some other corners, there are some deeper and more old wounds scattered, those wounds remind Yun Hai of her beloved little bat.

The thought brought a tiny smile to her face.

"I feel like torturing you will only make you more excited." Halfway through, the Scarecrow keenly caught the hint of a smile, and then he commented.

This is a correct assessment because——

"If you are me and want to live, you must learn to transform pain into joy early on. This is my knack." That was Yun Hai's advice.

"I still don't understand what's the point of you torturing me like this." Yun Hai licked his chapped and bleeding lips and said seriously, but his tone was laziness: "I can't think of anything that offended you."

Her slightly pale lips are now occupied by a dark red color, embedded on the bloodless and tired face, like a rich rose on the vast snow.

"As I said before, you have softened Batman." The Scarecrow interrupted Yun Hai directly.

This time, Yunhai's reaction changed, "Hiss—" she took a breath, her eyes widened a little: "This crime is a bit serious." Then she watched the scarecrow start a very passionate fight in front of her eyes. speech.

"How do I teach the world to fear real fear? When they have Batman, the unwavering, always ready knight?"

"Fear is not a purely physiological reaction. It goes beyond instinct. Real fear is hopeless."

"And hope is Batman's pair of wings twinkling and spreading in the clouds."

"I understand," Yunhai interrupted the scarecrow, spitting mercilessly: "You are my rival in love, so can you stop being so nasty as your rival in love."

"Okay, I've been listening to your inner monologue for a long time, can you tell me what time it is in return?"

And the Scarecrow continued as if he didn't hear her words: "I always think about what will happen if I destroy this symbol of hope."

"But how?"

The scarecrow's literary art made Yunhai feel a little unbearable and pressed his face against the cross, but the former didn't seem to want to let her go easily. He squeezed Yunhai's mandible to force her to look at him, and then stared at those eyes similar to Batman slowly. Slowly said:

"Then I thought of a brilliant note:

I will destroy the hope he stood for, the belief he stood for, and it all starts with you. "

oh?Regarding this point, Yunhai had something to say, and she said with a look of disgust: "Although I am very happy to say that your flatter, but I still have to say, you really think highly of my influence on the little bat, and—— "

"And do you really think it's going to destroy Batman's faith? You know, even I couldn't do it after trying so many times." Or, deep down, she didn't want to.

"That's because you don't know that you are one of Batman's weaknesses."

Yunhai gradually frowned, and she suddenly found that Scarecrow really loves to daydream.

The author has something to say: Every day I love Batman more than the day before~
