Chapter 1,662 No Time to Die (25)

 The clown called the police.

That's right, he almost climbed over the sofa, ran to the phone station, and dialed the number of the Gotham Police Department with the old old telephone.

When Gordon rushed to the Joker's house, Spider-Man was holding a knife in one hand and holding the Joker down with the other. The experienced police chief couldn't help but open his eyes in shock and yelled at Spider-Man.

"Spider-Man, what are you doing? Do you want to kill him?!"

Seeing a circle of police officers pointing guns at him outside the door, Spider-Man immediately let go of his hand, then raised his hands and said to them: "Hey, you misunderstood, I just looked at the stubble on his face."

I haven’t had it repaired for a long time, but I couldn’t find a razor at his house, so I had to make do with this knife.”

The Joker got up from the ground in a hurry, rushed towards the farthest wall, bumped his head against it, turned around and pressed his hands tightly against the wall, then stretched out a finger to point at Spider-Man

Said: "Take him away quickly!!!"

Gordon put down the gun, glanced at the Joker, at Spider-Man, and at the Joker. He sighed, and then said to Spider-Man: "No matter what you want to do, it's wrong to break into someone's house with a knife."

of."

"But I didn't break into someone's house with a knife. This knife was mine in the kitchen..."

"Okay, listen, Spider-Man, come out first. Have you asked Batman for his opinion on this matter?"

Spider-Man put the knife on the coffee table next to him, followed Gordon out of the door, and then said: "No, I didn't tell him, but I think he should be able to guess it."

Gordon looked back at Spider-Man, and what was shown on the Batcave's surveillance screen was that Gordon glanced at the camera.

Gordon called Spider-Man out and said, "Look, kid, I know you're probably angry about what the Joker did, but we can't arrest him without evidence."

"Similarly, when he has not committed a crime, you cannot assume that he is a criminal and then threaten him with weapons. I believe Batman has told you this. Please promise me not to be carried away by anger.

Mind, okay?"

Gordon looked very calm, obviously anticipating the current situation. Basically every Robin who has just joined the Bat Family will experience this.

After spending some time with Batman, Robins will all have the thought, "Maybe I can do better than Batman." Some young police officers in the Gotham Police Department also think so.

But the Robins' reckless actions to apprehend criminals did not bring any results. First of all, they broke into the villain's base camp carelessly and could easily fall into a trap. Even if they were highly skilled in martial arts, without evidence, the villain was completely

You can call the police.

Gordon couldn't remember how many times he appeared in the Iceberg Restaurant to stop the Robins from beating the Penguin. At that time, the way the Robins looked at him stung him, as if he had become the leader of these bad guys.

Vicious dog.

But this is not the case. Can Gordon not know that the Penguin does not do good things? Can he not know that there are countless illegal transactions in the Iceberg Restaurant? Can he not know that even if the Penguin's brain is beaten to a point of blooming, he deserves it?

But if he doesn't abide by this remaining superficial order, then Penguin won't abide by it either. Then the result is that illegal transactions will no longer be restricted to the Iceberg Restaurant, but will appear in every place where government-business collusion can reach.

It will appear in the homes of every low-class citizen in Gotham.

At that time, even Batman will not be able to go door to door to check or rescue every low-level people who are coerced by the ruling class.

Today's Gotham is completely a poisonous flower rotten to the roots. There are only a few conscientious people left who are constantly loosening the soil and removing insects, not to restore it to health, but just to prevent it from completely withering away.

To live, you must live.

So in a sense, both Gordon and Batman can be regarded as accomplices of Gotham's darkness, because they did not choose to destroy Gotham, but maintained the current situation as much as possible and let it fall slower.

Both of them have already seen this clearly and have become indifferent to all the accusations related to this. This is also the most important reason for the disagreement between Batman and his Robin.

Robins often ask Batman two questions: "Why don't you try harder to save?" and "If you can't save, why not destroy?", Batman never answers.

Robins often make some troubles: rushing into the villain's house, beating them up and leaving the police to deal with the aftermath; stepping into the villain's trap recklessly and sacrificing the police to rescue them. Gordon never complains.

Because they both know very well that it is difficult and should not be said to a group of teenagers that you should clearly see the reality, accept the dark status quo, and work hard to survive.

These are not things that children should consider. The almost utopian saviorism in their minds is the most precious thing of the human species and should not be brutally destroyed, at least not in the hands of those close to them.

Therefore, all the smart and sober people in this city have a tacit agreement not to answer any questions from these doubtful birds, and remain silent, forever silent, just like Batman, just like Gotham.

In Gordon's view, Spider-Man's intrusion into the Joker's home this time was just another fruitless and reckless attempt by these heroic birds, so he didn't say anything more, just patted Spider-Man on the shoulder, and then

Just left.

Two days later, the Joker stormed into the Gotham police station and surrendered.

Without waiting for the police to ask questions, he told every detail of his crime, inside and out.

"Chief Gordon, you have to believe me, I really want to help him." Spider-Man was almost dying of grievance. He grabbed Gordon's arm outside the police station and started to complain.

"I went to his home that day. From the environment of his home, I found that his financial situation may not be very good and he was relatively poor. I thought it was caused by him not working well, so when he went out that day, I followed him

Behind you."

"I have a spider sense that can predict danger, so I could feel that he didn't notice me. I thought he was going to rob, kidnap, or rob a bank or something. It turned out that he was doing odd jobs in a chemical dye factory, and his job was to help people

Chemical factories dumped substandard sewage."

"Of course, this job is not very legal, but he does work very hard. Because he is secretly dumping sewage, he cannot use the factory's big trucks. He can only use small containers to haul them to the seaside, and then use manpower to dump them into the sea.

fall."

"He worked for five or six hours in such hot weather and made at least three or four trips. Of course, he seemed to have intercepted some dangerous chemicals, but in the end, the owner of the factory deducted his salary..."

Along with Spider-Man's narration, Batman, who appeared in the Batcave control room as Bruce Wayne without wearing the Batsuit, recalled what happened two days ago with a slightly despairing expression.

In the dark factory, there was only a small security room with light on. Two figures were entangled in front of the door of the security room, and one of them, a slightly rich man, shouted.

"This job is supposed to be twenty dollars! Do you want to do it? Do you really think I'm afraid of you if you smear your face, put on lipstick, and pretend to be that terrorist clown?!"

"I tell you, even if the real clown comes, I will blow his head with a shotgun! That is, that sissy Batman will play with him, don't fucking expect to scare me!"

"Take the money and get out of here. I won't use it again. I'm annoying you vampires who are desperate for money the most. Get out of here!"

Two banknotes fell feebly. The clown in a somewhat wrinkled short-sleeved shirt bent down to pick up the money, rubbed his nose, and flicked the banknotes in his hand with his fingers.

When he turned around, in the Gotham night behind him, there was a figure squatting on the top of the factory building. That was Spider-Man who had followed the Joker here.

Spider-Man frowned and stared at the scene below with an unprecedented serious expression. His eyes fell more on the arrogant security guard, so he did not see the evil smile on the corner of the clown's mouth when he turned around.

If Batman is the greatest detective in the world, then the Joker is the most manipulative criminal in the world. He is good at taking advantage of everyone's emotions.

Many people think that the clown is best at stimulating the dark side of people's hearts, but he is also very good at using the bright side of people's hearts, and he knows that if the heart of justice burning with anger misses the direction, it will be worse than...

The more evil bullets hurt people.

From the first moment we meet Spider-Man, the foreshadowing begins.

The Joker is just a poor mentally ill person. In addition to fighting Batman, he still has to work hard, buy groceries and cook, and will starve without the discounted products in the supermarket. He is just a poor ordinary person.

People commit crimes only when they are forced by life - this is the first step to gain a sense of identity and gain favor.

In addition to resisting Batman, he also abides by the rules of this society and works honestly, but in the end he is still oppressed. What's wrong with the weak and poor ordinary people? It must be caused by the unfairness of this society! - This

It is the second step to clear his crazy and cruel criminal history.

The Joker knows very well that Batman's group of simple Robins, like all the heroes in the world, place great emphasis on discussing matters as they arise, right is right and wrong is wrong. Even if criminals are oppressed again, they should be stopped.

If it were the Robins of Batman in the past, they would have jumped down from the building and punched the security guard. After knocking down the security guard, they would have said to the Joker from above: "Even if you are a madman and a criminal, you will not be able to do anything when you encounter him."

Even if it is unfair, I will not sit idly by and ignore it, because I am a hero."

The clown will only laugh crazily in his heart.

Yes, this vicious security guard often deducts the wages of the workers he hires to dump sewage, but without him, even this tiring and unprofitable job will not fall into the hands of those who are weak and can only do odd jobs.

In the hands of low-level people, the supervisor will only contract to relatives with whom he has a good relationship.

They will hate the hero, the clown thought while laughing. He so easily confuses right and wrong, good and evil, and plays with people's hearts, but no one can stop him, not even Batman, because this is human nature.

But Spider-Man didn't jump down. The clown felt the burning anger in the child's heart from a few hundred meters away.

But Spider-Man didn't jump down or punch the security guard. He just squatted quietly on the roof of the building and watched the farce.

It doesn't matter, the clown thought, the Robins' intelligence is their disaster. Soon this simple bird will find that Batman is not what he imagined, and so is the clown.
