After the meal was over, Ah Fu gave up monitoring Su Ming, and he brought a plate to Gordon.Originally, Director Gordon had a good idea and planned to go to Wayne's mansion to meet Batman and help him or something.However, things did not turn out according to his wishes.When he arrived at the mansion, before he could enter the bat cave, he was caught by the old butler and sent to the safe house that was absolutely safe last time.Gordon showed the consciousness of sacrificing for the city he loved, but the old butler said, "Thank you, but we don't need it."
So the poor director was placed under house arrest again, when Gordon looked at Diana and the others with desperate eyes, as if waiting for the Justice League to speak for him, but Green Arrow and Aquaman turned their heads one after another, pretending not to see it.Gordon shouted the death knell at the time, you are counting me again!
, and then dragged away by the old housekeeper.But who called Su Ming a good person, he gave Gordon the choice of either going to the amusement park in Poseidon or coming to Wayne's mansion.Who is to blame for his own choice?
The old butler couldn't have let Director Gordon see Bruce's lost soul in a tattered bat costume.Not now.Just as Su Ming was about to tell his point, Bruce pushed a bat-shaped pad over the white tablecloth, on which a video was playing.The first thing you see is the glow of red and blue police lights, and then the heavy rain that obscures them, a video taken from a surveillance footage out of nowhere.The water on the ground is flowing rapidly, and the police officer in the picture is carrying a body from the hood of another car.There was an x2 speed sign in the upper left corner of the screen, Su Ming pressed the pause, and pulled the tablet to zoom in on the screen, he wanted to see what kind of corpse deserved Batman's attention.But the rain affected his vision, and the water droplets on the camera made everything look distorted and unnatural, and he could only barely tell that the other party was richly dressed, and the materials and craftsmanship of the suit should not be cheap.The corpse was a decent person before it died."
Explain."
Su Ming asked Bruce, and pushed the tablet to the left, Diana kept poking her head to see, and her hair went into Su Ming's neck."
Brother's Eye, process the image."
Bruce said calmly as he held the empty glass in his hand, and then the image on the tablet became clearer as if the curtain had been pulled down.Sharpening, smoothing, color filling, extrapolating and sketching, a series of operations are all done in just a few seconds, and this video has been processed with mosaic removal to become much more exciting."
Is this you?"
Diana sighed.She also recognized the identity of the corpse, although it seemed that this Bruce was much older and had a snow-white beard like an old captain, but the proportions of the facial features and the bone structure, Diana believed that she would not be mistaken."
Yes, another one I was killed last night, he should be from some parallel world, he gave up on me as Batman."
Bruce stretched out his finger and hooked his neck, "This is impossible, I have built the Earth Protection Circle, and no one can travel from here to different worlds except with my permission." ”Su Ming lowered his head and looked at the corpse carefully, making sure that there was nothing wrong with his identity.The officers detained the body from the hood of the roadside vehicle, checked his documents, and the surveillance probe duly zoomed in to reveal the documents in his wallet.Not to mention the hundreds of dollars in cash he had with him, his driver's license recorded that the license plate number was Gotham City 0001, which was the mayor's license plate."
I know you've protected our world with magic, but it's clear that he's not me, and won't be the future me.We still can't explain why he was at the same time last night, when you fought the Cruel Knight.How this blues fell to the ground from a height of about 250 feet in a handmade suit, and also in the other direction of the city. ”Bruce glanced at his father beside him, restrained the smile on his face, and explained to Deathbell."
It was done by the accomplices who laughed wildly, there is no doubt about it, it's just that I can't think of how they can bypass the Earth's protective barrier, now the three sanctuaries are functioning normally, Shadow Pact and Bobo have been monitoring the Eternal Rock, it is impossible to find the movement without notifying me.""
So is it possible that he was transported to the Overworld before you built the barrier, and was only killed last night."
Oliver suggested another possibility.Bruce nodded, and he acknowledged the possibility: "If you know why he was killed, and why the other me in the morgue was killed before, and why they died on Earth, then you can probably guess the train of thought of the Laughing Bat." ”Su Ming touched his chin and leaned back against the back of the chair, his fingers feeling the sharpness of the stubble."
If from the perspective of solving a crime, if a person is killed, the detective will look into the social relations of the deceased; When two people are killed at the same time, detectives will look for connections between the two deceased; When three or more people are killed by the same murderer, the detective will take his eyes off the victim and instead analyze the murderer's behavior pattern and carry out psychological profiling, because the moody serial killer does not need a motive at all" "Laughter is taking our eyes off the corpse and on his own, which is a mental trap!
”Bruce had understood, and he wanted to slap the table in front of him to vent his anger, but Thomas glared back at him."
But we're only two dead, and we've learned that their connection is Bruce from another world."
Barry, as a forensic forensic examiner, also has a bit of insight into these.Su Ming shook his head and said slowly: "No, we have three corpses, and the cruel knight is also Bruce Wayne, although it seems that he died in our hands, it still does not rule out the possibility that he was sent out for nothing by laughing." ”"Well, so there should be some kind of commonality between the bodies of the three of them, something other than obvious identities and things that we haven't noticed."
Oliver exhaled the air in his lungs as well, and he felt the pressure, like someone was sitting on his chest.It's like being suppressed by a nightmare, and it hasn't changed anything with the leaps and bounds of strength."
We need to go to the police station, and I'll release Chief Gordon first."
Bruce pulled up his mask, straightened his cloak, and got up to get to work.But Thomas grabbed him and stood up to sort out his equipment: "I'll go with them, you must continue to inject the antidote I gave you, your situation does not allow you to run around." ”"But the Laughing Bat is coming at me.""
No, he's here for Batman, I'm Batman."
Thomas pulled out his pistol and looked at it, as if he had said that he hoped that Batman would be the last generation to come to him."
Your antidote doesn't necessarily work, either."
Bruce was still struggling, he didn't know how to get along with his father, and now he acted like a kid, maybe that's how he talked to Thomas when he was a kid.It's just that again, twenty years have passed.Thomas patted him on the shoulder and looked down to check the red bat belt around his waist: "The antidote in my hand was left by Martha, she likes to plan ahead, she made a serum against clown toxins anyway, you have to try it anyway." ”"I see."
When it came to Martha, Bruce still had no choice, so he could only let Ah Fu change his uniform, put on a hospital gown and pull him to the bat cave for injections."
Alfred, look at him."
Thomas also gave a special advice."
Of course, master, I won't let the young master run around, just like before."
Ah Fu smiled and responded.Thomas looked at the others around him, and the corners of his mouth moved a few times: "Yes, it's like before." ”Gordon was released from the safe house.When he found out that the Batman in front of him was not Bruce Wayne, but Thomas Wayne, who had long since died, Gordon's three views collapsed."
You really didn't come from some parallel universe?""
No, it's really me, Officer Gordon, remember the day you took up your post in Gotham?
We met at the police station during the day, and I was talking to your chief because the family's business was being disturbed by some external factors. ”Thomas pulled down his mask and shook hands with Gordon."
But I examined your body that night, as well as your wife's" Gordon still had a messy expression, because several people in the Justice League around him proved that what Batman said was true, he was really the Batman of Earth 0, and it was indeed Thomas Wayne."
Let's go, Chief Gordon, we need to get back to the morgue now, and if the police department is still functioning after our last departure, there should be two new bodies of Bruce Wayne removed."
Su Ming interrupted the process of verifying the identity between the two, that is, going to the police station needed Gordon to be a tool man, and he continued to store him here.It won't take long, so you don't have to confirm your identity every time you meet an acquaintance, right?
Thomas wanted to cover for Bruce, but Gordon was no longer young, and he couldn't stand the excitement of the mutation.As for the GCPD situation, Su Ming felt that it was not a big problem, although the raid of the cruel knight caused a lot of casualties, but the Gotham Police Department had long been used to it.As long as there are still living people, the police station will not close its doors under Gordon's arrangement, and in the past, even when the clown led the citizens crazy, the police station was still functioning normally."
Uh, you're the death knell I know, right?"
Gordon shot a suspicious gaze behind the thick lenses of his glasses, and for some reason he suddenly began to suspect the identity of Death Knell again.Su Ming shrugged, did not answer, took Gordon's shoulder with one hand, and opened the portal with the other.Strictly speaking, he really isn't the death knell that Gordon knew before, but if it goes on like this, if Director Gordon keeps doubting this and that, he will become the next generation of Batmanp Mei Man Knell 48302dexhtp
