Chapter 344

~6 min read 1,097 words

Harley Quinn's debut can be said to be very perfect. Not only did she achieve the high-difficulty feats of 'being killed by Batman' and 'making Batman stunned' the moment she appeared, but she was also involved in the major event of the Joker and Barbara Gordon!

Who is Barbara Gordon?

The daughter of Police Commissioner James Gordon!

At the same time, she has a very famous identity, which is the first Batgirl, also known as Batgirl.

She is a genius hacker and also a world-class gymnast.

Her mother left when she was in her teens, and her father was busy with police work all day, so she developed an independent personality.

The appearance of Batman inspired the young Barbara Gordon to embark on the path of fighting crime, becoming Batgirl and starting to cooperate with Batman and Robin.

Unfortunately, not long after becoming Batgirl, she was shot by the Joker, resulting in paraplegia. Later, she changed her name to Oracle and moved behind the scenes to provide intelligence and information support for Batman.

And she formed a team composed of female heroes: the Birds of Prey!

And the incident where she was shot and paralyzed by the Joker is the very famous 【Batman: The Killing Joke】.

Back to the present.

From the current situation, Barbara Gordon should have just become Batgirl not long ago, and there is a relatively crude Batgirl uniform hidden in her house, which should have been made by herself.

That is to say, she hasn't cooperated with Batman yet, hasn't officially obtained the title of Batgirl, and hasn't become a member of the Bat-family.

Her gunshot wound was caused by the Joker.

Originally, according to the Joker's plan, he should have taken some photos, then taken Commissioner Gordon away, and used these photos to stimulate and influence him.

However, Harley Quinn's sudden appearance disrupted the Joker's plan, so he gave up on taking photos of Barbara Gordon and directly took Commissioner Gordon away.

Although Commissioner Gordon sent an alarm to Batman, that was also intentional by the Joker; he only left with Commissioner Gordon after the alarm was sent.

For one thing, the Joker had to let Batman know that something had happened to Gordon, that "I'm back," and the game had started again.

Secondly, it was to divert the disaster, using Harley Quinn to confuse Batman and create more time for himself.

Su Quan appeared after the Joker left, but he never showed himself.

He silently watched Harley Quinn take photos of Barbara Gordon, then be killed by Batman, and it wasn't until Batman sent Barbara Gordon to the ambulance that he appeared and took the resurrected Harley Quinn into the Mirror Dimension.

By the way, the fight between Batman and Harley Quinn dropped 5 points and the Dionysium factor, respectively.

On the rooftop, after watching Batman's figure disappear, Harley Quinn asked Su Quan with a giggle: "Where are we going? Following Batman or going to find the Joker?"

Su Quan looked into the distance, released his psychic abilities, and soon found the Joker and the kidnapped Commissioner Gordon in an abandoned amusement park in the suburbs of Gotham.

He was not surprised at all about how the Joker escaped from Arkham Asylum; that place was a vacation spot for him—he could come and go as he pleased.

But he was a bit curious about the reason for the Joker kidnapping Commissioner Gordon and starting the 【Killing Joke】 event, after all, the current Joker was already different.

After thinking about it, he ultimately didn't use his psychic abilities to probe the Joker's thoughts!

Sometimes, keeping a certain sense of anticipation can make life more interesting.

"We're not going anywhere. We're going home to rest, and tomorrow morning we'll go to take over Arkham Asylum." Su Quan laughed and put his arm around Harley Quinn: "Weren't you an intern doctor before? How about I make you the deputy director tomorrow?"

"Okay, okay." Harley Quinn giggled and wrapped her arms around Su Quan's neck.

"Shoo—"

Figures flickered, and the two had already disappeared.

Two flowers bloom, each on a different branch.

Leaving aside what Su Quan and Harley Quinn did after returning home, let's talk about Batman arriving at Arkham Asylum, where he soon discovered that the Joker was no longer there.

"Where's the Joker?"

Batman grabbed a security guard—well, it couldn't really be called grabbing.

After all, who in all of Gotham doesn't know Batman's name? Moreover, Batman could be considered an unofficial partner of Arkham Asylum; the Joker was even sent by him.

The security guard was very cooperative, and even felt honored and excited that Batman was asking him: "Batman, the Joker is already dead."

"Dead?"

Batman's first reaction was that it was impossible, then he lowered his voice and continued to ask: "How did he die?"

"Suicide."

The security guard pointed to the wall in the Joker's cell while speaking. The wall was covered in blood, like a blooming flower of blood...

"The Joker died by hitting this wall. When we found him, his head was already caved in; it was terrifying."

"Are you sure he's really dead?"

"I'm sure! Many people saw it at the time, and his head was like that; he definitely couldn't have survived." The security guard said firmly.

Batman frowned slightly. He believed the security guard wasn't lying, but why didn't he believe at all that the Joker would commit suicide? And there was no reason for suicide!

Not to mention that the attack on Barbara Gordon and the disappearance of Commissioner Gordon might be related to the Joker!

"Where is his body?"

The security guard said uncertainly: "We notified the hospital according to the regulations; it should be in the hospital morgue."

Batman raised his hand and pressed the communicator in his ear, asking the Batcave to check the hospital's records regarding the Joker's body.

Although it seemed like there was ironclad evidence, he always had a feeling that the Joker wasn't dead.

Batman thought of Harleen Quinzel, who had actively sought death and whose body had mysteriously disappeared.

"Harleen Quinzel, was there anything unusual about her?"

The security guard thought for a moment and shook his head: "Dr. Quinzel? There was nothing unusual about her. It's just that a new benefactor came today, a very young Asian man who said he would be responsible for our salaries from now on and even gave us a raise."

"Supervisor Penelope Young received him and even had Dr. Quinzel accompany him, but later Dr. Quinzel and the benefactor disappeared. Uh, you know how it is, haha."
