Chapter 3273
As the saying goes, one person's bad luck is bad luck, and a group of people's bad luck is the beginning of happy hour.
Batman's mentality underwent some subtle changes after Superman appeared. To summarize in a more grounded way, it was probably: "Sorry, buddy, but you must come and see this."
For ordinary people, "this" usually refers to a pile of shit on the roadside, giant sour fruit, firecrackers about to explode, etc.
It's just that due to Superman's strength, these things couldn't bring him any surprises. But it would be different if Shiler was there. It had the attributes of all these things at the same time, and it was a super-enhanced version. Superman might have encountered the first prank in his life.
Superman slowly landed on the balcony of Wayne Manor. He pushed open the door of the window sill, frowned at Batman and said: "What's going on? Why did you suddenly call me and hang up? I thought you encountered some danger."
Batman just glanced at him and walked back to his seat to sit down. He hoped that Superman could read the meaning of "I did encounter danger, and this danger is standing in front of you now" from his brain waves.
But unfortunately, Superman didn't understand. He just looked at Shiler with some curiosity. Shiler was also looking at him.
This was actually not the first time Shiler had seen Superman, but it was indeed the first time he participated in an event with Superman. This feeling was still very novel.
No mastermind would want to encounter an opponent like Superman, because his power was too unreasonable. Almost any conspiracy had no effect on him. And to control such a strong person full of justice was really very difficult.
Superman's simple moral view was very difficult to reverse. Brainwashing at the language level was ineffective for him. A head-on collision was an even more stupid choice. To make him willing to do things, he must ensure that this matter was just, and not only the result was just, but the process couldn't have flaws.
This was very challenging, but Shiler was ready.
"What are you talking about?" Superman also seemed to realize that the atmosphere in the room was a bit wrong, and began to become vigilant. Vigilance was mainly aimed at Shiler. Some kind of super intuition made him want to stay away from this person instinctively.
"I am planning to convince Batman to spend money to fish out a party member involved in the arms smuggling case, so as to get a congressman's position to hand over to the super criminal Penguin. He agreed just before you came, and we are discussing the details."
Batman sprayed out a mouthful of water.
He had subconsciously wanted to touch the kryptonite in his belt, because he couldn't think of any reason why Superman wouldn't use laser lasers to sizzle him after hearing this.
Superman really looked over with disapproving eyes.
Very good, now Batman is that pile of shit on the roadside, that super sour fruit, and that firecracker about to explode.
Batman suddenly realized that Shiler's behavior logic of shifting all responsibility had a certain truth. This allowed him to extract himself cleanly when facing existences like Superman, while making others unable to argue.
For example, if Batman now said that Shiler also participated in this matter, then how did he participate?
The need to push a congressman was because the State Legislature was aggressive, and the State Legislature's attitude was bad because Gordon ate a large sum of money alone but didn't share any with them.
And Gordon ate a large sum of money alone because the Charabong family fell into a crisis. The Charabong family fell into a crisis because of the chemical plant explosion case. The chemical plant explosion was the new Joker's crime.
Also because the natural forest land was polluted. And the natural forest land pollution incident was exposed because Batman wanted to find trouble with Charabong, so as to gain an advantage in the GTO bidding.
And the GTO needed to auction itself because the municipal funds had no money to support their operation. And the municipal funds had no money because the Pale Knight pushed the Napier Act and offended too many people.
Don't dare to push forward anymore.
The one who pushed the Napier Act was the Pale Knight, and the appearance of the Pale Knight was because Batman fed the Joker an excessive amount of medicine.
Batman didn't beat the Joker, the Pale Knight wouldn't appear, and a series of subsequent troubles wouldn't appear. Finally, pushing back and forth, the culprit was Batman.
Now Batman understood why Shiler's mouth was this.
"Of course, Mr. Superman, you have to listen to Batman's explanation. He has a reason for doing this..."
"No, no matter how legitimate the reason is, you can't push an evil super criminal to the position of congressman. Many people will be harmed!" Superman looked at Batman in disbelief.
Batman was also a bit confused.
Although pushing this matter back and forth might be his responsibility, now that Superman knew this plan, Superman's moral sense made it impossible for him to let this plan proceed.
Isn't this looking for trouble?
So did Shiler want this plan to proceed, or did he not want this plan to proceed?
"Sorry, Mr. Superman, before you came, we had already put this plan into practice." Shiler said with a difficult face, "After you said this, I deeply realized my mistake. But now it seems a bit late, what should we do?"
Superman finally withdrew his angry gaze at Batman, looked at Shiler, sighed helplessly and said: "I know you must have encountered a huge trouble, so you had to take such means. But even so, you can't be so reckless."
"But being able to realize your mistake is a good thing. Since it's wrong, there is always a chance to correct it. I will also help you."
Superman stood in place and thought for a while, then looked at Batman and said: "Didn't you prepare any supplementary plan?"
Shiler pretended to be very shocked and said: "What? You actually don't know?"
Superman hurriedly looked at him.
"Ah, sorry, Mr. Batman, I didn't mean to reveal your privacy, but I think you can't keep hiding it from your good friend. Friends should help each other..."
"What? Batman? What are you hiding from me? Did you encounter any trouble?! I went to the Baltic Sea for a business trip some time ago. Is there anything I don't know???"
Shiler sighed again, wanting to speak but stopping.
Batman sat there watching his performance.
"Alfred passed away." Shiler said, "I also wanted to come back to attend the memorial service because of this. Introduce, my name is Shiler Rodriguez, a psychologist."
Superman reached out and shook hands with him, but the shocked gaze fell on Batman. After letting go, he walked towards Batman immediately, and then said: "Such a big thing and you didn't tell me?!"
Batman turned his head away. He really couldn't stand Superman's aggrieved gaze, as if he had done something harmful to heaven and reason.
"It's not just that," Shiler continued to talk behind, "Batman was overly sad, and someone took advantage of the situation to frame him, causing him to go to jail, his reputation was also ruined, and he almost couldn't come out."
Superman gasped, and the gaze looking at Batman became even more aggrieved. Batman felt like sitting on pins and needles.
But soon Superman's gaze became firm, and he said: "I know you must not want me to worry, it's okay. I haven't been busy recently, I can accompany you. I haven't been to a bar in Gotham yet, let's not get drunk tonight!"
Now it was Batman's turn to look at Shiler with a look for help. Who is a good person who can drink with the sun and not get drunk?
Shiler walked to the table, leaned against the table and said: "You should really drink with him. He has been under too much pressure recently. Although he firmly refuses to do psychological tests, according to my observation, he has some initial signs of depression. This is not a good phenomenon."
Superman's gaze was so hot that Batman felt the kryptonite in his hand was useless.
"So, don't blame our plan. If it weren't for being forced to have no way, no one would make such a stupid move." Shiler took all the blame and buckled it on Batman.
And Batman watched Superman reveal a hesitant expression. He really wanted Superman to wake up, but his reason told him that Clark just ate this set.
"Don't worry," Superman still opened his mouth and said, "It's never too late to start making up for it. How far has your plan progressed?"
"Penguin has been released," Shiler said, "Actually, judging objectively, he does have the strength to become a political newcomer. Just from the talent aspect, he can become an excellent politician."
Superman is not the kind of person who follows prejudice. Although he doesn't like criminals, he also has to admit their talent. So he nodded.
"The only problem is that because he has no moral concept, doing things is always out of the ordinary, and he doesn't take ordinary people's lives as lives. I am discussing with Batman about limiting his means."
Superman immediately understood, and he said: "Where is he most likely to be now? I'll go find him and warn him not to mess around!"
"My God, you are really willing to help?!" Shiler made a surprised posture, and then said, "If so, that would be great. Batman really can't afford to be tired. If you can stare at him during this period, I can give Batman good psychological counseling to make him healthy quickly."
Batman hadn't said anything yet, Superman grabbed his hand, full of guilt and said: "Sorry, Bruce, ignoring you some time ago was my fault. I didn't expect you to experience so many unfortunate things alone. If only I could come back earlier."
"But it doesn't matter, you rest well. The matter of staring at that damn criminal is left to me. I guarantee he won't be able to do any bad things!"
What can Batman say? He is now afraid that Superman will think he is crazy from excessive sadness if he gives a thumbs up.
So he could only cooperate and nod.
Superman came full of worry and left full of mission. Shiler stood in front of the window sill, watching his back flying farther and farther, and lit a candle for Penguin in his heart.
"Release Penguin and give him money to open the way? I don't have any good intentions." Shiler said to himself while closing the balcony door, "He'd better work well, otherwise just wait to become a roast penguin."
Shiler turned his head and only saw Batman's death stare. And he didn't say anything, just sat back in his seat and poured himself a glass of wine.
"You are more despicable than I thought." Batman said.
Shiler put away his smile, looked at Batman and said: "Your body language is telling me that you feel the taste of being cared for and helped by friends is quite good, Mr. Island."
Batman froze.
