Chapter 2058: A Knight

~11 min read 2,045 words

Throughout human history, no tactic in any war has been suitable for all situations. Most need to be adapted to local conditions. If one condition in time, place, and people is changed, the results will be vastly different.

But this conclusion must be added with a prerequisite: in wars aimed at victory, no tactic is omnipotent.

But if this prerequisite is slightly changed, not taking victory as a necessary condition, but just wanting to make the other party fail, or even just wanting to make the other party uncomfortable, then one must mention a tactic that can play a role in almost any condition—bombing shit.

Please note, it is bombing shit, not splashing shit. Splashing shit is actually an advanced version of the "buck-passing" tactic. At most, the method and means are more disgusting than buck-passing. Its main characteristics are premeditation and directionality. If the opposite side is alert enough, it can still be avoided.

But bombing shit is different. This is a tactic where even the formulator and executor of the tactic cannot fully predict the consequences. When you throw a bomb into a latrine, you cannot predict which direction the shit will splash, and you don't even know if it will splash all over yourself.

This is exactly the brilliance of the bombing shit tactic. If a tactic is such that even its formulator doesn't know the final result, then who else can predict and avoid it in advance?

Many people used to be confused about Bruce Wei En and Cat Getan's situation, because what Bruce Wei En did in Cat Getan was basically equivalent to having a smart toilet but insisting on not using automatic flushing, insisting on researching it himself, using various postures to flush the shit stuck to the inner wall of the toilet.

But researching the posture of flushing shit in your own toilet is one thing, and getting angry because this shit can't be flushed and blowing up the septic tank is another.

What Bruce Wei En announced is more similar to the fact that there is a piece of shit in his toilet that can't be flushed. Because he hasn't found a suitable posture yet, Bruce Wei En just leaves it there.

One day, this pile of shit evolved arms and legs and smashed the toilet. And because his neighbors and colleagues failed to go to support in time and didn't help him clean up the house, Bruce decided to blow up his house and that pile of shit together.

Of course, normally, this would at most pollute a street, which is just a bit disgusting. But if this shit was pulled out by Godzilla, the trouble would be big.

And if it had to be accurately described, every criminal in Cat Getan is roughly equivalent to a pile of shit pulled out by a giant monster. Scattered, they are a pile of shit; gathered, they are a mountain of shit.

Bruce Wei En blew up the mountain of shit.

Even more unfortunately, everyone present is at the center of the explosion. The amount of shit accumulated in Cat Getan, not to mention polluting the entire Americas, is at least enough to pollute the entire United States.

Here, one must introduce the magical trial system and prison system of the United States.

Simply put, the state courts of each state are completely independent. They have almost nothing to do with the Supreme Court of the United States. They have independent legislative and judicial powers, which leads to the well-known phenomenon that the laws of various states in the United States are different.

And to go further, in cities with strong mayoral systems, the legal system is also almost independent. In extreme cases, there may even be the phenomenon of different laws in ten miles, and there is no lack of criminals in a certain city or state fleeing to another state to be exempt from legal sanctions.

And more magical than this magical judicial system is the prison system of the United States. In general, prisons in the United States are not public facilities, but profit-making enterprises.

Many prisons in the United States are completely commercialized, meaning they are no different from the shopping malls people see in business districts. Not only are they privately owned, but there are also specialized prison managers responsible for managing the place for the owners of the prison.

And the purpose of the person in charge of the prison is not to detain criminals well at all, let alone reform criminals or help them return to society. Their purpose is to make a profit.

The consequence of doing this is that the prison is completely unaccountable to the government and society. They are only responsible for completing the government's reception indicators. As for how the prisoners live in the prison, the standards possessed by private prisons are completely market-oriented.

Of course, not all prisons in the United States are private, but one problem is that in this situation, the phenomenon of bad money driving out good money will inevitably occur, which will lead to the living space of some government-controlled prisons becoming smaller and smaller, gradually declining, and no one visiting.

The government naturally cannot sit idly by, but the measures they take are to let more public prisons accept private funding, especially funding from private enterprises that need to maintain a security environment, adopting a public-private partnership approach.

All prisons in Cat Getan are in this situation. The only prison completely privately owned by Bruce Wei En is the Batcave Prison. Others, such as Blackgate Prison, Cat Getan Police Department Prison, and Cat Getan Police Department extra prison, are all funded by Wei En Enterprises.

Cat Getan's municipal funds have long had no extra appropriations to maintain the normal operation of these prisons, at least not in the short term. Once Wei En Enterprises chooses to withdraw funding, it will become inevitable for these prisons to close down.

But the prison is gone, which doesn't mean the criminals are gone, nor does it mean Cat Getan's law enforcement agencies are gone. As long as Cat Getan's federal law enforcement system is still operating normally, they can request the federal government to provide detention quotas for handling criminals.

If the federal government cannot provide it, it means they have completely abandoned law enforcement power in this city, which will lead to a series of serious consequences, and this consequence is something everyone present cannot bear.

But if they want to provide detention quotas for this group of criminals, it means they allow Cat Getan's lunatics to walk out of Cat Getan and go to all parts of the United States, at least all parts of New Jersey.

It is easy to imagine that this group of "Gu Kings" who crawled out of the world's largest septic tank would not obediently board a prison transport to be locked up in a penitentiary.

If this bubble of shit is destined to be spilled on the road, who dares to say that they will absolutely not be splashed?

Even if various prisons dispatch a large number of security personnel to receive this group of criminals with the highest security level, who can guarantee that they will behave themselves in prison and not carry forward their consistent style of striving for the top, bringing new gospels to the criminal circles of various states?

Entering one Cat Getan lunatic, coming out a group of Cat Getan criminals, everyone finally understood. Bruce Wei En doesn't want to be a godfather; he wants to mass-produce godfathers.

To this day, the federal government has long since lost the strong execution ability of the Roosevelt era. It is unrealistic to build several prisons for receiving Cat Getan criminals overnight. Then, everyone present who doesn't want to be splashed with shit only has one choice left, which is to let Bruce Wei En take back his magical powers.

Seeing that the congressmen were about to stare holes in his back, the military representative couldn't help but take out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat. He wanted to speak to persuade, but didn't know how to persuade, after all, Bruce Wei En still had a trump card he hadn't used.

If he opened his mouth to say that you are disregarding Cat Getan's safety by doing this, Bruce could immediately say, you dared to throw missiles here, so who is disregarding Cat Getan's safety?

The only hope now is that the two teams sent out can bring back good news. The military's original plan was just to catch some handles of Wei En Enterprises, such as illegal transactions, illegal emissions, etc., but the current situation forced them to adopt more radical means.

If the situation cannot be reversed, when Cat Getan's lunatics are really released, various political parties will definitely dump the pot on the military for their votes. Once the situation develops to this point, the internal power purge of the military will not be far away.

The military called for a halftime break, the reason being that the spokesperson was unwell. This wasn't a lie, as that young officer's blood pressure was about to explode. 【

And as everyone evacuated the venue, there was one other person who was very excited: Amanda Waller.

She followed closely behind Bruce Wei En, as if she had completely left the FBI and instead become a subordinate of Wei En Enterprises. Although the FBI Director was furious, no one dared to provoke Wei En right now.

"Are you serious, Bruce?" Amanda stared intently at Bruce Wei En's handsome profile. There was some trepidation in her tone, and she was very certain that Bruce Wei En heard it.

This was an excellent opportunity for Amanda Waller, because so far, the FBI only had the department Amanda was in that had experience dealing with super-criminals. Although their track record was basically negative, when picking the tallest among the short, it was her turn to be picked.

"I'm afraid so, Ms. Waller." Batman stood where he was, expressionless, still gently turning the ring on his finger.

"Then where do you think they will be sent?" Amanda's voice was a bit dry, and the greed in her tone was a bit too obvious, but she couldn't care about that at all now. She could feel how fast her heart was beating, and how dry her mouth felt.

"There will always be a prison," Batman replied ambiguously. The meaning behind his words was also very clear: if things really developed to the worst point, they would always need someone to step up and clean up the mess.

Amanda swallowed hard, stared at Batman with a jackal-like gaze, and asked, "What do you want?"

"If possible, ma'am, I would like to meet your superior. We need to talk."

Amanda was just about to say something when Batman's phone suddenly rang. He made an apologetic gesture and walked out of the room with the phone.

He glanced at the caller ID and discovered it was actually Nightwing.

Dick usually wouldn't call Bruce Wei En's phone in this situation; they would communicate via the Bat-comms, which helped Batman conceal his identity. Nightwing was the Robin who best understood the urgency of matters, which meant he must have some emergency right now.

So, not caring that there were many eyes and ears here, Batman answered the call as quickly as possible.

"Listen, Bruce." Nightwing's voice on the other end was panting, which made Batman frown slightly. He had a premonition that Dick might be calling to talk about the cape. Sure enough, Nightwing shouted on the other side of the phone.

"That kid you brought in, Peter Parker, is crazy! Not only did he make me hack the Oracle system, but he also stole your cape from the Batcave. We suspect he's the one who anesthetized the whole city. Batman, you have to hurry..."

"He did it," Batman's voice remained steady.

Nightwing was stunned and suspicious. Just as he was about to ask, he heard Batman on the other end say, "I told him to do it."

"Including hanging the military personnel on the Cat Getan Bridge, hanging your cape on it, and inviting all the city's reporters to watch?!"

Batman's fists tightened.
