On the fourth floor of Arkham Asylum, in ward 004, Bruce Wayne took off his mask and sat in front of Arthur Frank. This clown, like the three clowns in the past, all experienced a bad day. There was no accident.

After the death of the third Joker, he will become the fourth Joker, inheriting the Joker's crazy, bad day philosophy and continuing to tangle with Batman.

But this time it was different. Batman took off his mask and talked to Arthur based on his past experiences, which he has not completely let go of until now, making him understand that there is someone in this world who has a bad day like him.

Human existence. Crying loudly allowed Arthur to release all the anger and sadness in the past period. Bruce was not sure whether this would help Arthur. At least, the feeling he gave Bruce now was that of Arthur.

Much better, I can listen to people's words now.

"Tell me, have you ever come out of it?" After crying, Arthur also asked this question that concerned him most.

"No, even if I sit in front of you now, I am still the helpless child in the crime alley. Bruce Wayne is just my mask. From the moment I watched my parents die in front of me, I will always stay

There, all that's left is a freak named Batman, and the curse that accompanies Batman's birth."

"curse?"

"Yes, those who care about me and love me have left me and been hurt because of my identity. For their sake, I should have lived under the mask of Bruce Wayne, but now I

I can’t take off this suit, so Bruce Wayne is still a mask, and the curse of Batman is still wrapped around me.”

"What about me? Do you think I still have a chance? Do you still have a chance to go back to the past?"

"You can't go back, Arthur. I don't know what will happen to you. I just want you to know that after a bad day, you don't have to become a madman or destroy everything. But the road is at your feet.

How to go, I can't tell you, that's why I came here to see you. I once had the opportunity to save another person, but in the end, I didn't do it. This time, I just want you to know, no matter what

No matter what choice you make, I will not interfere with you, but once you make a choice, you will have to bear the consequences of that choice."

After saying that, Bruce did not continue to stay here. There was only so much he could do. Forcibly interfering with other people's will would not bring any good results. He had already learned enough lessons in this regard.

After closing the door and leaving space for poor Arthur, behind the door, Bruce also sighed heavily, his expression indescribably relaxed. Looking at the empty corridor in front of him, Bruce found himself

Hallucinations appeared in front of his eyes. He returned to the crime alley and stood there watching his parents die. Next to their parents' bodies was the clown, the first one who had fought against him but died again.

Two clowns.

In front of Bruce, the two clowns relived the tragedies that had happened to them. The second-generation Robin Jason was beaten to death, Barbara was humiliated, and Harvey Dent was led to the depravity.

Rachel, his childhood sweetheart who was killed in the explosion, reappeared in front of Bruce. But this time, Bruce was not angry or crazy. He looked at the hallucination that appeared in front of him and said slowly.

"You always want to prove in your dreams that I am a chaotic lunatic just like you. You have done so many things, which made me angry and desperate, and made me want to break the bottom line I set many times. Sometimes I

I'm all doubting whether I can persevere, but now I'm not afraid of you. I'm still the boy who can't do anything, but I've made peace with myself."

Saying these words, Bruce also walked forward, passing through the clown who existed as an illusion in his eyes, and behind him, the little Bruce Wayne in Crime Alley also stopped crying and stood there

, looking at the figure walking away from him.

At the entrance of the stairs outside the corridor, Gordon was frowning and smoking. Under his feet, there were already several cigarette butts. After all these years, he also knew that this Dark Knight, who had guarded Gotham for many years, was the one who originally wore the cigarette butts for him.

Bruce Wayne in a coat. He didn't know why Bruce wanted to talk to this Arthur. He just hoped that what he would see later was a Batman or Bruce Wayne who was in good condition.

When the door opened, Gordon threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground and stamped it out. When he turned around, he saw Batman putting on his mask again, a look of disappointment flashed across his face.

"How about it?"

"The things here are over. He has the final say on how to go next. We just have to do our own thing. I'm sorry for asking you to accompany me on this trip."

"This is nothing...?!"

Halfway through the polite words, Gordon also came to his senses. Batman apologized to himself? For such a trivial matter?

Before his curiosity was over, Batman had already bypassed him and left Arkham Asylum, and Gordon trotted after him, watching him enter the Batmobile.

"What are you going to do next?"

"Do what needs to be done, and Gotham is counting on you during this time."

After that, he started the engine, and the Batmobile carried Batman and disappeared into the night, leaving Gordon standing there alone, silently refilling his cigarette and puffing away smoke.

Greenland, underwater, in the base camp set up by the clown, the confrontation between Ke Wen and the clown continues.

"Now that my people are here, do you think you can win? With these young people?"

After the Jiying Alliance, Amodro and Deathstroke each arrived at the area where the three targets were located, the clown also posted the picture as soon as he received the news and showed it to Ke Wen. He wanted Ke Wen to see it with his own eyes.

It looked like everything he had arranged was destroyed.

"Whether they can win or not doesn't count for me, nor does it count for you. It's up to them. Even the will of the universe can't interfere too much in this regard. Or are you planning to add some spice to this game? Right now.

As far as I'm concerned, I can't stop you from whatever you do."

As he spoke, he waved his hand to let the clown see the chains wrapped around his body, indicating that he had no ability to fight with the clown now. Ke Wen's frank attitude made the clown suspicious, and he didn't do anything for a while.

I understand what Ke Wen is doing, and I don’t understand where Ke Wen got the confidence to think that he can come back and win this big event.

"That's what you said, let's start. It's time for the game to skip the animation."

As he spoke, the clown waved his hand, and an incredible change happened!

In the picture shown by the clown to Ke Wen, it can be seen that the day and night in the eastern and western hemispheres have changed at this moment. The vision that appeared in the universe from the beginning, the rampant cosmic energy enveloped the earth, and then

With such a wave of the clown, darkness enveloped the earth. Unlike the previous blackest night, when the sunlight was artificially blocked, the sunlight still shone on the earth, but the light could not penetrate the atmosphere.

This kind of darkness is not day turning into night, it is just pure dimness. People can still see in such an environment. In their opinion, it is fine. Why does it suddenly become cloudy? People in the night time zone are just

I wonder why the day dawned so late. It was dim just now, and it is still dim now. There is no change. Countries that have previously observed riots in cosmic energy have also made preparations after this abnormal change occurred.

The police and troops in every city are in combat mode. They have experienced several global events and have enough experience to deal with them. These are not the focus of the clown. In his opinion,

Come on, when everything you have arranged breaks out, all these preparations will be useless.

"Then let's watch together next?"

"certainly."

The two of them stopped talking and turned their perspective to the city of Nazionale, Lisa Bell, who was codenamed the Man in the Mirror by Ke Wen.

In Nashville City, after Dick proposed that the clown, the mastermind behind the scenes, take the initiative to cause trouble for himself and others, the Alpha team in Nashville City has been in a highly concentrated state, especially since they already knew through Cyborg's early warning.

When several members of the Extreme British Alliance entered the city, their nerves were in a tense state. However, in such a tense atmosphere, Lisa Bell, the person in the mirror who was released by Ke Wen, interacted with the two new acquaintances.

The little friends had a great time.

"Something's wrong. It's already half past eight. Why is it still so dark and bright? Is something big going to happen?" In the city of Nazionale, I met my new editor Lisa Bell and my friend Lian Akiyama.

Kay Taylor, who was chatting, was also there talking about the strange phenomenon in the sky at this time.

"You'd better put away your curiosity about this kind of thing, Kai. Experience tells us that these are problems that can only be solved by the big guys flying around. Even if you dig into the root cause, you can't find the reason."

The Asian Lian was also there complaining about his friend's curiosity. He didn't have such thoughts of seeking death. If he had this time, he might as well find some better news to report. With this in mind, he was also debugging there.

Instead of using her own equipment, Lisa Bell, as the life in the mirror, stared blankly at the sky. She knew very well what would happen to the sudden vision.

"Yes, only those big people flying around can solve such big problems. A small person like me should help solve the problems that only small people encounter. Lisa, is there something wrong?"

Kai didn't feel anything wrong with his friend's ridicule. He only became concerned after noticing something was wrong with Lisa's expression as she looked at the sky.

"Ah? No, I just think it shouldn't be like this. It doesn't count as dark when it's dark. It's gloomy all the time. If you stay there for a long time, people will easily get depressed."

Lisa, who had known these two for a short time but cared about her very good friends and was gradually adapting to her life in the real world, didn't say much. She just said something perfunctory, packed up her equipment, and greeted the two of them.

"Let's go, I just have some news in hand, you two come with me."

"no problem!"

With a response, the three-person team also left the company building. On the rooftop opposite the building, when they rushed here, the corrupted Jiying Alliance team also saw their target. The members of the Jiying Alliance at this time were: The Excellent One

, Beast Girl, the Hatter, and a man named Manchester Black.

The four of them are new generations who have powerful abilities, but are disgusted by the current so-called superhero culture. For them, since they are born with this ability, doesn't it mean that I am superior to others? I can only be mediocre compared to you.

It loses our identity for ordinary people living a mediocre life to mix together. We help you solve those so-called super criminals. You should be grateful to me instead of criticizing me because I caused some damage during the arrest.

Are you worthy? Even if some unnecessary personnel are created in the process of arresting criminals, including your relatives and friends, so what. Just treat it as a natural disaster. Anyway, when super criminals do trouble, they will

You may not be able to escape, sooner or later you will die. You should be happy to contribute your own efforts to catch the super criminals and bring them to justice. At least we will send the super criminals to hell to make amends to you. Isn’t it great?

This typical theory of racial discrimination is vividly demonstrated in the new generation with abilities. In this regard, there is actually not much difference between the DC universe and the Marvel universe. The Marvel universe also has mutants, aliens and

The contradictions of ordinary people, coupled with the general social environment, have become acute. In the DC universe, because there is a group of big guys from Zhenglian who are suppressing them, governments of various countries do not dare to come up with too many small ideas, and classification is here.

It's also simple and crude, unlike Marvel.

Marvel is divided into ordinary people, superpowers, mutants, and aliens. In this way, there will be conflicts and fights between mutants and aliens. But DC only has ordinary people, superpowers, even under the sea.

Civilized Atlantis and Paradise Island are both classified as superpowers. Under this simple and crude classification, even if some superpowers have ideas, they have to put their thoughts into consideration because of the social environment.

Put it away.

It's just that this time is different. As the Zhenglian generation moves behind the scenes, and there are no Superman people over their heads, they start to think more carefully. The Jiying Alliance is a representative. They put themselves in a high position and are

Deathstroke was recruited, and then accepted the corruption from the other side of the clown knight's power. While becoming stronger, he was also creating a kingdom for advanced people like them according to his own ideas.

It was the same this time. After determining the goal, the four members of the Jiying Alliance were also discussing the next division of labor.

"Just such a goal? I remember that she seemed to be a life that was released from the mirror world by that adult before. I didn't expect that she would dare to betray that adult."

Looking at Lisa Bell who looked like an ordinary person below, the beast girl from the Ultimate Alliance also said with a look of disdain.

"She betrayed that adult, so she has no value in existence. She is easy to deal with, but don't forget our mission and the Teen Titans in this city. They are currently on guard around the target, but

They don't know that we will attack the target, so we need to divide the work. Some people have to distract their attention, some will guide them, and some will kill the target. Let's talk about how the four of us choose."
