Batman didn't wait too long. He turned around and wanted to walk out of the surveillance room and stop the Joker's conspiracy. But at this moment, the door of the surveillance room that was originally open suddenly closed.
Just like the doors of all underground rooms, the door of the control room is also made of metal and explosion-proof. Batman threw a few mini bombs on it, but it could only leave a little black mark on the door and could not cause more damage.
.
Batman was very sure that it was definitely not an accident that the door of the control room was suddenly closed, but he did not see any additional movements by the clown on the screen, which means that the door may not have been closed by him through the remote control.
Someone else closed the door.
Since the clown on the screen has been talking, Batman is not entirely sure whether there were footsteps during this period. If this is the case, it means that the clown has an accomplice.
Batman frowned and thought. He thought that before, they were chased by agents and went around the manor several times. During this time, the Joker should have been sitting in the control room, observing their situation in real time.
, because the information obtained by the agents was very timely, which can prove that the clown was in the monitoring room during that time.
After the agents stopped chasing them, they formulated a plan to search for the entrance on the first floor. Then, Batman began to use helicopter parts to build bombs. At the same time, the Joker found Lex and Clark.
, and kidnapped both of them.
From this point of view, the timeline is correct, but there is a very big loophole in it, that is, if the Joker kidnapped Lex and Clark during the time when Batman was making bombs, then his
When was the bomb made?
Batman clearly saw that the bomb that made noise and attracted the residents out was not small. Although the composition was relatively simple, it would take a certain amount of time to make, not to mention the bomb that was tied to the beam.
It's a bomb.
Both of these are very obvious homemade bombs, and there is no possibility of directly using the finished products. It took Batman a while to get the bomb that blew up the underground exit. He didn't believe that the Joker could do it in the same time as him.
Here, not only did he make two bombs, but he also subdued Lex and Clark.
Forget about Rex alone, Clark is not that easy to deal with. Moreover, if he expected, Rex did not stay on the first floor. So, no matter whether the clown built the bomb first or not,
To capture the two people, he had to shuttle between different floors. Counting the time spent traveling back and forth, he would never be able to make it in time.
Does the Joker have an accomplice? Who could he be? Why should he help the Joker?
Before Batman could think of an answer to this question, he heard the clown on the screen holding the button and saying:
"Before I start the introduction, I must first say to the audience who is most willing to support me, you'd better stay there honestly and be an audience."
"If you want to rush onto the stage to interrupt a great performance, the angry clown will immediately press the button to give the show the most humorous and grand ending!"
Batman's finger on the door paused for a moment, but he turned back and continued to focus on the screen.
Because he saw that the piece of kryptonite tied to Clark's chest seemed to be tied very tightly, but because the crystal itself was irregular, and the rope was only wrapped around a few sharp corners of the stone,
It can be clearly seen that because the center of gravity is not placed correctly, the rope around two of the sharp corners has begun to become loose.
Clark's chest kept rising and falling. He was in extreme pain now, not only because of the kryptonite tied to his chest, but also because of the choices he had made before.
At this time, the clown's voice came from the ground. His tone was relaxed and happy, as if he was reciting an opening poem.
"First of all, I want to introduce you to this person - Clark Kent."
"As you can see, he is handsome, tall and handsome. What I can tell you is that at the same time, he is also very just and kind."
"When he sees an explosion in the reception room, he will rush to the rescue. When he hears that his friends are in danger, he will lend a helping hand. At the same time, he is also a freshman at Metropolitan University, with excellent grades and good performance.
Has a bright future..."
"Of course, I have to introduce his family background. He comes from a small town in Kansas. His family owns a farm, his parents are loving, and he lives a happy life..."
Praising words kept pouring out of the clown's mouth. He praised Clark to the extreme, repeatedly emphasizing how excellent, kind and righteous he was.
But at this moment, Batman saw that a certain room in the picture suddenly turned into a small blue square that kept flashing. When the blue flashed, there was a line of white letters in the center of the blue square.
, it says "Do Not Disturb".
He knew that this was the person in the room who pressed the "do not disturb" button, that is, he chose to vote for Clark Kent.
Batman was not surprised. Many people were invited to this banquet. In addition to business celebrities, there were also many people in the entertainment industry. Not all of them were highly educated, and everyone had different tendencies and personalities.
It’s not surprising that someone takes the lead.
Moreover, many of them don't know Clark. When they hear the Joker praising Clark like this, they will inevitably have a rebellious mentality and feel that this is actually the conspiracy of this madman.
Soon, more and more blue blocks lit up, until almost all the guest room screens lit up with blue blocks. Batman saw that many people were holding phones and shouting loudly, as if they wanted to.
Let your voice pass through the wall and be heard next door.
Through their mouth movements, Batman can tell what they said.
"Damn it! You must have voted for him! Could it be that if you want to kill old Luther's son, he won't let us go!"
"Where did old Luther go? His son was kidnapped, and he didn't care?!"
"Who knows if this guy named Clark is an accomplice of that lunatic, and I don't believe that anyone can really be as perfect as he boasts."
"I know little Luther. He is a poor little man with autism. Moreover, he is still young and may inherit the Luther Group in the future. We cannot kill him..."
"We can't kill little Luther. He is Old Luther's only son. If he inherits the Luther Group in the future, he will definitely be far worse than his father. If he dies, Old Luther will find a more powerful heir.
That would be troublesome!"
Just like that, almost all the rooms began to flash blue, and the cold light fell on Batman's mask. The information in their words was conveyed to Batman's mind, and the praise that kept coming out of the Joker's mouth
The words blended together, like a whole world suddenly split in two.
One side is praise, the other side is murderous intent, two completely different emotions surround Batman.
This is a weird and ridiculous scene. All the actors on the stage seem to be playing their own roles. The clown is praising Clark, but the other supporting actors do not accept his sentiments and insist on making their own decisions.
But they seem to be inextricably connected. Each one is observing the other's reaction and then makes a decision that he thinks is right.
Soon, Batman discovered that many people who pressed the button for the first time began to become angry. They took the phone and shouted:
"I didn't want to press it, I was forced to do it!"
"The madman said that if we don't press the button, he will let the radiation leak and give us all cancer. You don't know how painful cancer is!"
"My father died of late-stage lung cancer. In his last few days, he could only rely on painkillers to maintain his life. It was too painful. I don't want to be like him!"
"What's wrong with me? I just want to live, why can't I click?"
"He is just a college student. So what if he studies well? How much success can he achieve in the future? Maybe he should go home and farm. He is not many more farmers in the world, but he is more than one farmer!"
"I have a company with a market value of tens of millions, and there are so many employees waiting for me to support them. I am more important than him!"
"Why is he tied there and I am the one who makes the choice? Because I am the Lord's chosen one. I blame the Lord for not choosing him. Those who abandon the people will die!"
Batman just stood here, watching the corners of their mouths turned downwards, their eyes raised high, and the droplets sprayed out because they spoke loudly, watching them defend themselves with blushing faces, and scratching their heads and thinking.
Give a reasonable excuse.
In this scene, Batman suddenly had that strange feeling. They were so into the drama that even when faced with this situation, they were able to use their clever brains to justify themselves.
They are so serious and serious that they put a layer of reasonableness on this absurd comedy show.
They are indeed actors, not audiences. After being dragged into the river of rules, they never thought about going ashore, but competed to be the fastest swimmer, and hoped that the companion who fell at the end would be able to swim ashore.
Feed the crocodile in exchange for your own safety.
Are these people victims? Maybe, Batman thought.
When the blue squares filling the screen flickered, the cold light shone on Batman's eyes and flowed from his eyelashes, like ice edges under the eaves of a snowy sky.
At this time, he couldn't help but wonder, why are they so serious?
Batman shook his head to get rid of those thoughts. This scene was still not enough to shake him. He was no longer the fledgling Batman.
He took out the equipment in his Bat-belt and began to try to pry the door. Although the Joker threatened to press the button if he left, he couldn't really sit back and do nothing. That was not Batman's style.
Soon, the Joker's movements on the screen confirmed Batman's previous suspicion that he must have an accomplice, because the Joker picked up another phone with his other hand and said "hmm" to that side.
voice, then raised his tone and said:
"It seems that many people have made their choice, and they chose Clark Kent!"
"You have chosen well! You are about to send a good man with excellent character and academics to a bomb, and then let the bomb blow his head into a lake of flesh and blood!"
"I can give you a chance to repent, and as long as you press another button, the result will change...Aren't you going to do this? Really not?...Oh, okay."
"Wait!" The clown suddenly said in a confused tone. He put the other phone to his ear, said "hello" to it a few times, and then said:
"Emergency! Urgent! We have learned from an unknown but reliable informant that Lionel Luthor is dead!"
"That is, the friend we are hanging, the father of Lex Luthor, the controller of the Luthor Group, he is dead!"
