Chapter 3187: The Detective Shall Die (Part 49)

Shiler, who heard this question, was stunned for a moment, and then flew into a rage.

So you were still setting me up?!

Although Shiler had some psychological preparation that Batman would be curious about his past, and because of the special nature of his past and present lives, no matter how powerful Batman was, it was unlikely he could find the details of his previous life. So the only way for him to understand this past was to let Shiler reveal it himself.

But he didn't ask such things when he was with Pride, and didn't ask when dealing with Greed. He had only been out for a short time, and he was caught and asked. So am I that soft persimmon?

And you ask if you want to ask, is it necessary to go around such a big circle?

Shiler was still thinking about why Batman suddenly talked to him about Joker.

He really wanted to tell Batman that not everyone is interested in the twisted relationship between him and his nemesis. It's like a brother complaining to you after a fight with his girlfriend. Shiler's attitude toward this is to break up, if you don't break up, you deserve it, respect, understand, and bless.

As a result, Batman was still aiming at him.

You are so good at going around in circles, you must have been a tire in your previous life, right? Why don't you start from God's creation of the world?

Batman looked into Shiler's eyes, not letting go of any emotion on his face, but what completely exceeded his expectation was that he didn't see any memories, thinking, and nostalgia on Shiler's face.

The moment he saw the anger, it was too late to dodge.

Shhh!

Shiler gave Batman a knife directly.

"Holy shit!"

Bruce, who was watching the surveillance screen, was directly shocked.

Several people in the laboratory also stood up.

The most shocking thing in this picture was not the speed of Shiler taking out the knife, or his firm murderous intent, but Batman's shocked expression and defenseless posture.

Batman didn't expect Shiler to hurt him at all.

Shiler stabbed a knife into Batman's heart, not elegant enough, but precise enough. If he pulled the knife out now, Batman would die within 30 seconds.

Bruce went to look at Greed, only to find that Greed had also petrified into a sculpture.

"What are you surprised about?!" Bruce stared at him and said: "That's not another you? You didn't think he would..."

"I couldn't think of it! Go! Fast! Go to the lighthouse!! Batman can't die there!!!"

A group of people rushed out of the laboratory in a panic.

Shiler let go of the handle of the kitchen knife.

"Now you can leave your last words." He stood up, shook off the blood on his fingertips, and then said: "Let's see who will treat your last words as the last strategy, the lunatic who is a natural match for you?"

Batman looked up at him in disbelief.

"I only have one last question." His tone seemed calm, but his voice was slightly trembling.

"You say."

"Are you really Shiler?"

The agent smiled contemptuously and said: "Among the tens of thousands of preparation plans you made for me, you never considered the possibility that I would suddenly take action?"

"Shiler is not an emotional person."

"That's because you haven't seen me. You have 26 seconds left."

"Greed and I were the first to enter the game, and we were also the first to meet each other. The information you thought I investigated was told to me by Greed. In exchange, I have to help him divert your attention, let you analyze the monster as a hypothetical enemy..."

"You can't fool me, Batman." Shiler interrupted him and said: "You know Bruce's skill is also first aid. This time is completely enough for him to arrive. You can't die."

"You said this just to make me feel that the information you said before you die must be the most credible, but on the premise that you can't die in the end, I will only treat all this as farting."

Batman didn't wait to say anything, and saw Shiler skillfully put on night vision goggles, took the gun, rushed out of the door, and smashed all the lights on this floor with a few shots.

Three seconds later, a group of people led by Greed rushed up.

Bang!

Greed was directly knocked down, the bullet went straight into his heart.

Accompanied by the prompt sound of the battle starting, everyone stood at the stairs with horror on their faces.

What's the situation?! Joker came??

They left too hurriedly, no one brought night vision equipment, and the window on this floor happened to be behind Shiler. He almost blocked all the light, and people at the other end of the corridor could almost see nothing.

In the darkness, the Pale Knight wanted to reach out to help Greed. The moment his hand bypassed his shoulder and touched his chest, he was stunned.

"Heart..." he said.

"What?!"

"The bullet hit the heart."

Bruce realized, and he almost immediately thought of the key.

Joker threw a great success? No, impossible, his skill of controlling dice has a cooldown.

Unless he didn't throw dice. Everyone's attitude became serious, including Owlman, who analyzed: "We tried it before, if there are key props, we can avoid verification."

"... Night vision goggles." Greed said weakly.

Bruce looked up at the darkness ahead. A figure could be vaguely seen, but because it was too dark, he couldn't see who it was specifically.

"But why did he want to kill you?" Bruce walked to Greed's side. At a distance close enough, he could see the blood gushing from Greed's chest. The state of the blood spray showed that the bullet did hit the heart.

"Because we only have one first-aid skill." The Pale Knight was calmer, he said: "Stabbed Batman's heart with a knife, and shot Greed's heart with a bullet. They will both die in the next round, but you can only save one."

Bruce's face sank.

"But I don't understand the significance of him doing this. He couldn't have guessed that Greed and Batman had already reached a cooperation? They went around such a big circle, actually to let Joker expose his true purpose, and Joker has indeed left the team, our plan is close to success..."

The Pale Knight shook his head and said: "Don't you see it yet? This guy is as despicable as an agent. Advantages that are not in their own hands are not advantages, and can be destroyed."

"Isn't this harming others without benefiting oneself?"

"No, this is beneficial to him." The Pale Knight said quickly: "Greed and Batman must die one. If you save one, you can't save the other."

"And now he is lying between them. The one you can't save and must be abandoned must leave the most important information before dying, which can't be hidden from him."

Bruce also figured this out in a moment.

The situation is like this:

In this round.

There is a knife in Batman's heart.

There is a bullet in Greed's heart.

The condition for entering the next round is that someone takes action. If Shiler opens fire again now, naturally entering the next round, these two will inevitably die due to excessive injuries.

Bruce has a skill in his hand that can save a life, but it can only be used on one person at a time, and it will enter a cooldown after use, and cannot be used on a second person in a short time.

And if he takes the initiative to use this skill, he will still enter the next round, the skill effect will heal one person, and the other will inevitably die.

That is to say, now both people have a way to enter the next round.

But Shiler has greater initiative, because Bruce needs to struggle with who to save. He must weigh, think, and judge in his heart.

And Shiler only needs to fire another shot.

This means that if Shiler fires now, the other person will die very simply, without time to leave last words.

So now is the best time for them to leave last words.

But another problem is that Shiler is standing here now. Whether Batman wants to communicate with Greed or Greed wants to communicate with Batman, the voice cannot bypass Shiler and will definitely be heard by him.

And in the case that one person must die, the possibility of their last words being false information is almost 0.

Because Batman and Greed are not emotional people.

Closing their mouths tightly without revealing a word can indeed make Shiler's plan fail, but this has no benefit for their team at all.

Through the conversation between Batman and Shiler before, and the various clues along the way, it can be completely seen that the confrontation between Greed and Batman is acted out.

Greed didn't set himself up as a black-hearted businessman who ignores human life, then he actually has no position conflict with Batman, who has a hero persona.

And if Greed's purpose is just to make money, it is not impossible to coexist peacefully with Batman's purpose of saving the village.

The reason why they went around such a big circle is that they were worried about a dead lunatic like Joker in the team.

Joker's core interest of only torturing Batman is too evil, and it cannot be unified with any of them. It will not only destroy Batman's plan to save the village but also may not have any benefit to Greed's plan to make money.

So they joined forces in advance, creating a false appearance that the two sides were at odds, and even didn't hesitate to stage a play with Batman's serious injury, completely dividing the team into two factions.

Sure enough, Joker showed his feet. On the way others were taken to the laboratory, he chose to leave the team, seemingly avoiding Greed's threat, but in fact, as long as Greed and Batman successfully meet, the situation will definitely become everyone else fighting Joker.

Because everyone else in the team who was kept in the dark has no unified interest with Joker.

The Pale Knight himself is righteous, he is more willing to help Batman. Although Owlman is an evil Batman, he may not like Joker very much. Although Bruce likes to collect Joker, he is quite sensible and will not force his arm to twist his thigh.

As for Shiler, he wasn't in their consideration at all. If it were the original Pride, he would definitely stand with the main universe Batman, or his laziness would make him do nothing, and it would be good to occasionally express some views.

Even if it were the agent, he wouldn't have any entanglement with Joker, and there was no need to help him at all.

So what is going on?

Bruce recalled the conversation between the main universe Batman and the agent he saw in the surveillance screen, and didn't feel anything wrong.

Didn't the main universe Batman just tell the agent that we are not enemies, there is no need to be tit-for-tat, test each other, I only have one enemy, and that is Joker, and we already have a very perfect plan to deal with him, you just need to follow the plan, and you will definitely win.

Bruce thought about it and felt that this conversation was fine. If there were no accidents, Greed would also say the same thing to them. As long as both sides were appeased, they could meet next and work together to deal with Joker, whose whereabouts were unknown.

Although every Joker is evil, Bruce felt that the Joker who participated in this game was still worse than the Joker in the main universe, and the probability of winning after being besieged by so many people was not high.

The premise is that the plan is indeed proceeding smoothly.

And now they have to face the situation where the plan not only didn't proceed smoothly but also turned 270 degrees toward an unknown direction.

"Professor? Professor??"

After a while, Bruce heard a response, but it wasn't Pride's voice, but Lucifer's.

"Stop shouting, he's not here."

"Where did he go?"

"Went to smoke a cigar." ===== CHAPTER 3188 =====
