The Riddler was a little stunned when he saw Batman and the Joker talking for a while on TV, and then he started the machine.
In front of him, the clown turned into a disgusting mess in the crystal coffin.
No borrowing, no suspended animation, no missing. No disappearing in an explosion, or accidentally falling off a cliff.
Some are just simple deaths.
The Riddler has planned to fake his own death a few times, using Clayface, or using Snakeskin (another Gotham villain who can shape-shift), but never like today.
Batman kills people, and he murders without hesitation.
The Riddler saw the video zoomed in, and the Joker appeared in front of him.
Let's turn the time back to the moment when the clown died.
"So this was all a lie to me? You didn't become a clown?"
"Never." Chen Tao said.
Silver-white particles flashed, and as the crystal coffin was completely closed, Chen Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
Lucius's technical skills are unquestionable. It is absolutely impossible for the clown to escape through such a thick crystal coffin.
Yes, he did it. He fooled the Joker, the Joker who once made the original Batman Bruce Wayne fail and suffered countless times. Now he is trapped in the crystal coffin by him. As long as he gently presses this
Button...
Separated by a piece of transparent glass - the Joker was convinced that it was a strong sealing material made of polymers. The Joker looked at Batman.
"Hahaha, ahhahahahaha... Batman! You succeeded in catching me again, hahaha, I'm such a fool, hahaha - but it's really funny, this joke is funny - damn it! You're pretending
It’s really like it. I won’t do it again next time—”
The clown laughed so hard that he was out of breath, but Chen Tao opposite him remained calm.
"No next time, clown."
"What?"
The clown's movements paused.
"As I said, you are going to die. This is by no means an impulsive or passionate killing, but the result of long preparation."
"I decided to use femtosecond laser crushing technology to kill you."
Chen Tao stretched out his hand and stroked the transparent coffin: "This is not a birdcage, but a coffin."
Killing the clown was a decision he had made long ago. Ever since the clown used laughing gas to kill more than 20,000 soldiers on the battlefield and almost turned them into cripples, he has never thought about continuing to tolerate the clown living in this world.
Of course, as a huge American comic fan, he has heard many times about the controversy about whether Batman should kill people.
Countless people have repeatedly argued from political, military, philosophical, and even social theoretical relationships, or from practical factors such as comic book sales, that they either say he should be killed or that he should not be killed. For decades, this kind of debate has never stopped.
But the problem is - Chen Tao is not Batman.
Therefore, these arguments are meaningless. There is no moral choice, no epic destiny. In Chen Tao's view, the clown is a trouble. If possible, he even thought of finding a way to kill the clown directly with a knife or gun. Bain
Bat's memory gives him the skills to murder others, and he can use any weapon with ease.
But he still chose the safest approach. The story of the Laughing Bat made Chen Tao feel uneasy. In the comics, Batman mentioned more than once that even if he murdered the Joker, Gotham would give him something even worse.<
/p>
He doesn't want to find out that he is the Laughing Bat himself after traveling for a while, and then start laughing like crazy to destroy the multiverse.
This is so fun, even a rubbish novelist who drank three kilograms of fake wine would not be able to write such a nonsensical plot.
Therefore, he must be cautious when it comes to murdering the clown. Is there really poisonous gas on the spine behind the clown that can turn others into clowns?
Maybe, maybe not, but he will never take a chance on himself.
The clown in the crystal coffin strangled his neck. He began to have difficulty breathing.
Chen Tao walked to the crystal coffin and began to operate it silently. After turning on the energy, the machine would start to operate and cut the contents of the coffin into pieces at once.
Whether it's clown gas or some other weird thing, as long as the coffin is not opened, you will never escape.
After the clown is dead, Chen Tao will seal it layer by layer with multiple layers of steel, and then seal it with cement in the darkest corner of the lower level of the Batcave until the end of time.
The Joker discovered the murderous intent in Batman's eyes so naturally. He told some crazy jokes for a while, and recalled the past with Chen Tao for a while, but Chen Tao completely turned a deaf ear to these things, so in the end——
He suddenly seemed unusually calm.
"I get it. It's over now. You're not going to play games with me anymore, right, Batman? Okay, I accept, it's the end now. But you're always running away from the people around you, and you have
I never thought you'd never said that to me——"
"I hate you. Those words, I hate you, clown."
"Listen up Batman, if today is the final day, then I think I still have the right to prepare my last words."
"Femtosecond laser cutting is ready."
The machine made a mechanical sound.
"Please note, please confirm that everything is ready, countdown: 10 seconds."
"Batman!"
Chen Tao stood in front of the crystal coffin, indifferently, watching the clown pounce on the transparent coffin door.
"I'm about to die, I'm about to be killed by you, but listen up Batman - I hate you."
"It's your turn, bat! Come on, it's your turn, say that!"
As time passed by, Chen Tao turned his head. The hope in the clown's eyes was extinguished little by little.
"7 seconds."
"6 seconds."
"Me too." Chen Tao answered him: "Clown."
"Haha, hahahahahahahahaha——"
The clown burst into hysterical laughter. He had laughed like this many times in the past many years, but it had never been as crazy and twisted as it was now. Tears of laughter flowed out of his eyes, and his stomach hurt from laughter.
, banging his forehead against the coffin door.
"That's right, that's right bat."
"I'm glad you finally found out today, because in the past, you know, I never let you find out the circumstances of my death."
"Falled from a helicopter, fell off a cliff, disappeared in an explosion, but I always come back. I shouldn't have let you see my death, but it seems that today's situation is inevitable." p>
"Listen, I'm not going to die, Batman, that's a fact."
"I am a thought, a concept. I will continue to live in the shadows and live in the dissatisfaction of Gotham... You will see me again soon, hahaha, hahaha, ahahahahaha——
First, a line of blood spread from his forehead, and then his head began to collapse.
