"Admit it, I gave Gotham to you. This fallen battlefield is the home that you and I jointly built. The only reason Gotham allows you to exist is because of your fear of me."
At midnight, under the street lights, in front of the stairs of a ruined building, two men were sitting side by side.
They looked like friends who had drunk too much together, arms around each other, and saying things that made the other give up.
One of the younger and pale friends said to the people around him with a smile. There was a smile on his face, but he did not laugh.
"First admit that you can't even start a family because the idea of a family scares you, and you kill innocent people with your own tragedies." The friend with a chin next to him retorted, as if he was mocking him for not daring to get married.
"Do you think I dare not? Or are you talking about the past? That is the process that I need to understand you and understand everything about you, even if it means being your enemy, at least those things make us inseparable."
The young man rubbed his hair vigorously, as if to relieve the itching on his scalp. He answered the question seriously, his eyes shining under the street lights.
"Just for this reason, you are indeed crazy. This is not enough reason to trust you." The middle-aged man shook his head, but did not let go of the hand on his friend's shoulder.
Silence spread between the two of them.
Speaking of trust, this is probably the most expensive commodity in Gotham, because not everyone living here has the qualifications to trust others.
Just mentioning this word can be considered a luxury.
"I love Gotham, and this city deserves someone better than us, better than the Joker, better than the Dark Knight... Therefore, I will be her Pale Knight, the Joker is dead, and now only
That leaves Jack Napier, Batman, and it’s me who will save our city this time.”
After saying that, the thin man stood up, patted his butt, sniffed, and looked towards the not-so-distant city.
I saw that half of the city was already covered in ice and snow. Even the pedestrians on the overpass and the pet dogs on the roadside were frozen into crystal ice sculptures. Their time seemed to have stopped at that moment forever.
Batman also stood up, dragging his long cloak and came behind Jack, and said in his usual low voice:
"Assuming what you said is true, what she wants is the clown, but what are you going to give her now?"
Jack turned his head and grinned as wide as he could. His fake smile looked a little funny, but his voice was full of sadness:
"But she doesn't know that the Joker is dead, right?"
........................................
"Ha, as expected, the timeline change rate shows three question marks."
Sarah laughed as if she was giving up on herself. She sat on the captain's seat and rubbed her head. '???' means that the arrival of the Waverider has caused tremendous changes to the single universe in front of her.
Gideon couldn't predict it.
The Waverider arrived in this new multidimensional system called the "DC Black Label Universe" by Deathstroke, and came to a place beyond the origin wall. The ripples in time and space caused by this may have released more evil than Deathstroke not long ago.
The devil is stronger than the devil.
But she can't care anymore, because Deathstroke has fulfilled his promise, and now it's time for her to pay the price.
"Little white bird, don't be upset, come on, let's play the ghost card."
Harley came over with a note on her face. She still had a few cards in her hand, and she kept pestering Sarah.
It’s true that Sarah is a ‘la-la’, but what bothers her most is crazy women, and Harley from Earth 0 is obviously one of them.
After Deathstroke helped her, he asked the Waverider to sail to the Crucible of the World to pick up the people. As a result, half a circus was brought on board. He and the orangutan were both old smokers, and the entire bridge was filled with smoke at this time.
It's like it's become a boiler room.
The orangutan was also wearing a green tweed suit and a detective hat.
At this time, at the forefront of the bridge, the man and the gorilla were standing by the window, looking at Gotham City below.
The spacecraft is in a stealth state, and technology far beyond hundreds of years is enough to prevent anyone from being discovered.
"There really is a parallel world outside the origin wall..." Bobo held his pipe in his mouth, still looking surprised: "Then what exactly is our origin wall? It's just a place where Perpetua is imprisoned.
A cage?"
"Probably so." Su Ming held the crystal ashtray he got from Bliss's house in his hand and flicked the ash into it politely: "It actually has other functions, such as isolating humans from the phosphorescent sea.
, such as throwing the troublesome guy up and sticking him."
The orangutan detective grinned. He suddenly thought of Yuga Khan and couldn't help but shuddered: "The rupture of the origin wall seems to be a big problem, more serious than we realized before."
"Haha, although the wall is gone, the wall it left in people's hearts is still there." Deathstroke smiled, and he looked at the half black and half white city below: "Since everyone knows that the wall is broken, why does everyone think about it?
We want to build a wall, but no one has thought about getting out of the sheepfold and seeing what’s outside?”
"Maybe it's because they don't have a waverider, and they will be twisted into quanta when they travel through the void area?" Bobo complained angrily, don't you know why people don't want to come out? Of course, you will die if you come out.
: "Okay, is what you told me before true? Is there really a good clown in this world?"
"It's not the clown, at least not now, he's the Pale Knight." Su Ming lowered his voice and leaned into the orangutan's ear: "Don't mention the word clown, Harley will go crazy."
"No, I won't." Harley came over with the poker. Sarah seemed a little lonely because she didn't play with her, but her expression was calm at this time: "I have already seen the clown from Earth 0 die in front of me.
, that’s enough, the clowns in the parallel world all belong to their respective Batmans, why should I be a bad guy and ruin their sweetness? I don’t like sad stories, so naturally I won’t make people sad anymore.”
"Well!" Bobo's eyes widened, and his lower lip almost covered his nostrils. It took him a long time to nod: "It's really unimaginable that you, a crazy woman, still have such a rational side. I even doubt whether I am.
I'm talking to Dr. Quinzel. By the way, do you have a split personality? When you make a face on yourself, you're going to hammer all the clowns to death with a hammer, right?"
Harry smiled evilly and rubbed the monkey's head, then pulled his hat directly to his chin, blocking his black fur face:
"I'm a little crazy, but not stupid. If I couldn't tell who I had a grudge against, then I would have spent so many years in Gotham in vain." She left Bobo behind and walked to Deathstroke's side, very naturally.
He hugged one of his arms: "He tried to kill me three times and failed, but I tried once and watched him commit suicide. I have already won, right, Deathstroke?"
"You just need to know it yourself. In the city below us, there is a Dr. Quinzel and a female clown. They will be left to you when the time comes." Su Ming touched Harley's red ponytail and spoke gently.
He said: "Get ready to take action to reverse the situation like "The Day After Tomorrow" in Gotham, and then I will discuss terms with the two knights here..."
