Chapter 436 Arkham Psychological Trauma Patient Mutual Aid Association
Downtown Manhattan is sandwiched between two rivers, across the Hudson River from Jersey City and across the East River from Long Island.
It is different from New York on the real earth. In the middle of the Hudson River between Jersey City and Manhattan, there is Arkham Island, which is famous for its rich population of Gotham's mental patients.
In the middle of the East River between Manhattan and Queens, there is Naihe Island.
Just by hearing the name, you can tell how helpless the people who were born on that island lived.
It is a gathering place for the poor, homeless, and immigrants, a hotbed of chaos, and the cradle of all types of criminals in Gotham.
Countless Gotham heroes came from Naihe Island.
I was born on Naihe Island, traveled to the prosperous metropolis in the west, and then 'settled' in Arkham further west.
The lives of most Gotham heroes can be simply summarized as "Naihe Island - Manhattan - Arkham".
Now, the heroes of Arkham have completed the reversal of "Arkham - Manhattan - Naihe Island".
Escaped from Arkham, caused a scene in Manhattan, and fled back to Naihe Island in despair.
"I swear, I will never go back to Arkham Asylum again. Now we have the initiative and have the right to make our own demands!" Dr. Destiny's expression was determined and his eyes were crazy.
"I miss Oswald (Penguin). After I escape, I will go to the Iceberg Bar to find him." The Riddler said with emotion.
"If the GCPD doesn't agree, we will blow up the natural gas plant and set off a big fireworks on Naihe Island." Clayface chuckled.
"The key is not the GCPD, but Harley Quinn!" Mr. Freeze said coldly: "In the entire Gotham, except Harley Quinn, no one can do anything to us, including Bateman, who has been abolished."
"If it weren't for Harley Quinn, we people would be able to roam Gotham unscrupulously." The pig-headed man said.
"Harley Quinn doesn't seem to be taking care of things. More than half of you people were captured by Bateman," the dwarf Shadow Warrior said.
"Yes, Harley Quinn has never arrested anyone personally, except for those few..." The Mad Hatter pointed to the Bronze Tiger and the Death Angel in the corner, which were incompatible with everyone, and sighed: "Back then
Such a heroic, arrogant and domineering person, look at it now..."
Tonghu hugged his knees, his eyes were dazed, and he turned his head around in fear from time to time, as if he was worried that some invisible ghost would suddenly come to the door.
Galavan, the Angel of Death, is so nervous that he treats his surrounding companions as nothing, and recites the Bible in a low voice while facing the wall.
The Riddler swallowed, fear flashing in his eyes, "And Jerome the Clown, that guy has a mental breakdown and doesn't even dare to run away.
How crazy was the clown back then?
Galavan slaughtered Gotham's entire upper class.
I don't know much about Bonghu, but since he is a martial arts master that Lei Xiaogu also valued, he must be extraordinary.
The three of them are always warning the world about the disastrous consequences of offending Harley Quinn.
If you don't want to be in pain, don't want to be put on a hood every now and then, pulled into the basement of Arkham and subjected to all kinds of...
Hey, I don't know what they went through.
In short, the miserable howl, like the cry of a resentful soul, could be heard by people in the whole building.
No one wants to end up like them, right?"
The Heroes of Arkham recalled the wails that woke them up in the middle of the night, as well as the rumors about Arkham's basement: potion testing, dark magic research, human experiments...
They trembled together, "Harley Quinn is petty, vicious, and has no bottom line... This time she must personally promise not to attack us in any way."
"Cowards, a bunch of cowards, Harley Quinn hasn't done anything to you yet, you are all so scared." A roar came from the warehouse door.
When the heroes looked at him, they saw a tall and strong man who blocked the sunlight coming in from outside the door.
Wearing a respirator mask with five tubes connected to the back of his head, he exuded a fierce aura.
"Bane, you defeated Bateman. I respect your strength, but you are not from Gotham and don't know Harley Quinn." Mr. Freeze said.
"I only know that she is a little woman who is less than my shoulders and less than one-third of my weight." Bain clenched his fist hard, and his joints crackled. "We have strength and wisdom. As long as we have strength and wisdom,
If we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat her, just like we defeated Bateman before."
The pig-headed man raised his fist, no smaller than Bain, and said bitterly: "Believe me, she is much stronger than you.
She once played a 'boxing game' with me, and we boxed each other. I was punched seven to eight meters away, hit the wall, and broke more than twenty bones."
The Mad Hatter sighed: "She is also proficient in evil black magic. In the game of 'Spiritual Collision', my hypnosis was not only ineffective on her, but she hit me on the head with a stick, which made me insane and high.
Call 'Repent'.
Believe me, it was the most terrifying spiritual magic in the world, and I actually sincerely repented at that time."
The mud man said in a trembling voice: "The club therapy is nothing. The last time she came to me to practice, I was so angry that I was ready to turn into a mire and drown her, but suddenly terrible flames appeared on her body.
Believe me, the fire of hell is not as scary as the poisonous fire on her body. It burned my body to the point where my soul was almost gone, and the mud turned into porcelain."
The puppet master said bitterly: "Believe me, Bain, you can't hit her even if she stands there and lets you hit her.
When I first arrived in Gotham, like you, I didn't take the Emperor of Gotham seriously.
It was only when I was thrown into Arkham by Jim Gordon that I saw her in person for the first time.
Indeed, she is not big, her face is red, she is smiling, and she is a bit cute.
But with such a cute and pretty face, I couldn’t even break the skin with a shotgun.
Harley Quinn is such a pervert that she actually asked me to play the game of 'Bullets for Bones'.
She gave me a bullet, I shot her in the head, and then she crushed one of my bones with her hands.
Do you know the kind of despair that after shooting two boxes of bullets, she couldn't shed a drop of blood, but instead collapsed on the ground like mud?
I cried and shouted, "I won't play anymore," but she smiled and put the gun in my hand and helped me shoot..."
At the end, the villain who likes to make dolls out of living people couldn't help but turn his head and quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands.
All the heroes looked dazed and fell into memories.
The originally noisy warehouse fell into an eerie silence.
After a long time, Firefly whispered: "She also came to me. She said that since I am Selena's friend, she would play a more elegant game with me.
I used a flamethrower to burn her, and as long as it burned, she held me down in the ice water to suffocate me.
I was young and energetic at the time, and with the intention of killing her, I burned out a can of fuel.
A full 15 minutes.
She was not unscathed.
On the contrary, the special fuel I configured has an extremely high combustion temperature and can burn steel into molten iron.
She was burnt all over, like a chicken leg forgotten on the oven rack, burnt and shriveled."
Bain was shocked: "She's not dead?"
“Not only did he not die, but he laughed heartily throughout the entire burning process. The laughter was full of joy and joy, and it made my hair stand on end and sweat dripped down my back.
Then she grabbed my hair with her black and oily claws and pushed my head into the ice water. I struggled desperately but couldn't break free.
15 minutes must have drowned me.
But guess what?"
Firefly trembled: "When I was about to die, my soul left my body and I was finally free. She used vicious black magic (actually the sacred magic of the Voice of Heaven) to stuff my soul into my body and continued to drown...
.
The game of fire and water was over more than once. It could be as short as a few months or as long as a year or two. She would always take me to the basement with a smile."
Uh, after a while, I gain a wave of experience.
"It seems that even the demons are not perverted like her?" Bain murmured.
“I often wake up at night because in my dreams there is her devilish smile (laughing happily), there are flames all over the sky, and there is water coming in like a tsunami...
I'm not afraid of your jokes. I am a firefly. I originally like flames the most and am also the best at playing with fire.
But now, when I hold the flamethrower to burn the GCPD, my body is shaking uncontrollably.
Because, I can’t help but think about Harley Quinn’s game.”
Firefly turned her head and quietly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes.
Dr. Tianming adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said solemnly: "You need a psychiatrist."
Firefly looked at him and said: "Aren't you a psychiatrist? Help me see, I am a firefly, I can't be afraid of fire!"
As soon as he said this, other Arkham heroes, including the independent Judge Barnes, Bronze Tiger, and the Angel of Death, all looked at him expectantly.
Dr. Tianming smiled awkwardly and bitterly, and said: "She also played games with me..."
"what game?"
"See a doctor." Dr. Tianming said.
"What?"
"The name of the game is 'Seeing a Doctor', and the rules are very simple. Two electric shock beds that she designed herself are connected side by side. She and I each lie on a bed, and each holds the other's electric shock switch.
Then they ask each other questions, ask questions about psychological diseases, and analyze each other's mental problems. If the person being analyzed is not satisfied with the answer, they will press a button and electrocute the 'doctor' for two minutes.
In the end, I didn't even have the energy or strength to press the button, let alone answer her questions.
But she blamed me for not being serious, so she called Dr. Strange, injected me with stimulants and adrenaline, and played with her until she was satisfied."
Dr. Tianming took off his glasses, rubbed his red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "So, now I am afraid of treating others."
Mr. Freeze sighed: "I also played games with her..."
After a while, a group of Arkham Heroes each moved a chair and formed a circle... Just like the Alcoholics Anonymous meetings that often appear in American TV series, everyone gathered together to share their 'game' experiences.
, and then untie the knot and regain a new life.
Even Bronze Tiger and Galavan participated.
After hearing what happened to his beloved general, Lei Xiaogu looked moved. He walked over and patted Tonghu on the shoulder, sighing: "I'm sorry for you. I understand now that there are many perverts and psychopaths in Gotham, but the biggest pervert and psychopath is
, but he is the most glamorous 'normal person' on the surface.
Worthy of being Gotham, worthy of being a resident of Arkham...
However, don’t worry, we have control of this factory and the two tons of explosives placed in the sewer system, so Witch Harley will definitely compromise."
Just as he was talking, Jim Gordon's loud loudspeaker's voice suddenly came from outside: "Lei Xiaogu, Riddler, listen, Senator Quinn has made a concession!"
"Look, she compromised." Lei Xiaogu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great, we are safe." Arkham Hero almost cried with joy.
Gordon continued: "However, Senator Quinn has slightly changed the rules. Only those who capture Lei Xiaogu or defuse the bomb can be permanently exempted from the 'Quinn Wanted Order' - from now on, no matter what you do, Senator Quinn
No more questions.
But only for Senator Quinn, GCPD and Bateman will still capture the ‘pardoned’ and bring them to justice.”
Lei Xiaogu was furious and shouted: "The initiative is in my hands, does she know? If she dares to use such despicable means to sow discord, she really thinks we are stupid -"
"Bang!" Before he could finish his words, he received a punch in the back of his heart that was enough to break rocks and crack gold.
It was as if a grenade exploded behind him.
"Pfft--" Lei Xiaogu flew forward seven or eight meters, and while he was still in the air, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
