Chapter 3823

"Hello, Moon Knight." Bright lights flow over the lady's wheat-colored skin, reflecting the gorgeous gemstone facets above. Under her long, pitch-black eyelashes, the look in her pupils is murky and unclear.

Schiller nods at him, but doesn't reply. Wonder Woman holds her wine glass and says: "I haven't been to New York yet, but I heard that the seniors of the Justice Society are all gathered there. I really hope I can visit them and understand their great achievements."

"New York welcomes you, lady." Schiller replies.

"I don't know what you think of the Amazon." Wonder Woman continues, "Without being humble, my hometown is very beautiful. The moonlight there is purer than anywhere else. Are you interested in going to see it?"

"My honor." Schiller says, "I have heard of Themyscira."

Wonder Woman's hand holding the wine glass pauses slightly. Schiller said "Themyscira," not "Amazon." But usually, outsiders can't tell the difference between the two.

Amazon is the name of a country, which is a small country located in the Amazon, or it can be said to be a tribal alliance, just like the UAE. Themyscira is one of the tribes, and also the most powerful tribe among them.

But because the Amazon itself is an inconspicuous small country, no one cares about the differences between the tribes among them. Just like few people can say which is the most powerful emirate among the UAE. Most people only know Amazon, not Themyscira.

Wonder Woman herself won't overly promote Themyscira. She has always emphasized her identity as an Amazon princess. Besides the word "Amazon" being more known to the public because of the Amazon rainforest, it is also because Themyscira has many secrets that are not suitable for people to know.

In the Justice League, except for Batman, no one knows much about a certain tribe of this small country. Even Superman has at most heard the name and knows nothing about its history.

However, this suddenly popped-up superhero Moon Knight suddenly mentioned this name, and it was in front of her. This is not normal at all. He might be hinting at something.

"I didn't expect you to know my true hometown." Wonder Woman says, "Can I understand that you have been paying attention to me for a long time?"

Schiller shakes his head and says: "I just saw this name in a classic book. I am a bit curious about this."

Wonder Woman breathes a sigh of relief, and she says: "Yes, Themyscira is a mysterious place. Ordinary people cannot approach it. But it is really very beautiful. If there is a chance, I will invite you to see it."

"Many thanks." Schiller says.

Wonder Woman is somewhat annoyed, hating the other party's cunning. She tested here for a long time, the other party didn't take the bait at all, and could always roundly play dumb and muddle through. She couldn't help but look at Batman next to her again.

Her hand gripping the wine glass tightens slightly, and Wonder Woman's heart is up and down. Batman is becoming more and more different from when they first met. Now, no one knows what he is thinking.

Arkham Batman is standing by the window, chatting with Superman, still talking about Superman's hometown, Kansas. From Superman's expression, one can see he is very happy, which can simply be called radiant. Seeing this, Wonder Woman grinds her teeth again.

Her gaze falls on Flash and Green Lantern again. These two are also useless, easily won over by Batman. Do they really not realize that Batman is about to control the world?

Wonder Woman looks at Arkham Knight again. Her footsteps walk towards that side involuntarily. She probably knows what happened between them. If Arkham Knight speaks, Batman might have some scruples.

Arkham Knight neither holds a wine glass nor talks to anyone. He is wearing a full set of equipment, standing alone in front of the dessert table staring at a small cake. It looks like he is hesitating which one to eat, but in fact, he has been standing like this for half an hour.

"Jason." Wonder Woman calls out.

Arkham Knight gives a start and wakes up. He looks at Wonder Woman, remembers Batman's instructions to him, and responds vaguely. But to avoid being seen through, he doesn't put on a very cold attitude either.

He has no grudge with Wonder Woman, so naturally, there is no need to make things difficult for her. In fact, he even stands on Wonder Woman's side in his heart, feeling that Batman really doesn't need to be petty with a small country. Even if Themyscira does have some secrets, haven't they been fine for so many years? Why create extra trouble?

"Jason, I'll just say it straight." Wonder Woman is in another attitude. Although the content of the speech is somewhat straightforward, the tone is very gentle, and Arkham Knight even hears a kind of pity in it.

"Your adoptive father might have some misunderstandings about us." Wonder Woman sighs lightly and says, "The Amazon has no intention of opposing the United States. We have always been on his side. Why do you think he is targeting us?"

"I don't know either." Arkham Knight says the truth. He purses his lips and continues, "Maybe this isn't his decision alone, you know, Congress and the military..."

"I certainly know that the current Congress and military are in name only. The entire federal government is his one-man show, and these diplomatic policies are also formulated by him." Wonder Woman originally just wanted to persuade Jason, but as she spoke, she became more and more worried, "He reduced the number of flights of the three major airlines to the Amazon, which dealt a devastating blow to the Amazon's tourism industry. I heard that his next step is to cancel the various preferential treatments of the Amazon passport. Except for some countries in Asia, no other country has suffered such cold treatment."

Arkham Knight's heart moves as he listens. If this is really the case, it means Batman is determined to move against the Amazon. But what is there that is worth Batman risking completely offending Wonder Woman to take continuous actions against the Amazon?

But Arkham Knight is not good at international relations. He feels very headache-inducing, and can only comfort her with some painless words, and promises her that he will definitely talk to Batman.

Watching Wonder Woman's departing back, Arkham Knight also feels somewhat unbearable. This lady is powerful, just, respected, and has never done anything to apologize to Batman and the federal government. How did it get to this point?

But Arkham Knight can only sigh in his heart. If his martial arts and intelligence can play well in Gotham, then it really doesn't count for much in the turbulent federal government. But Batman didn't take long to unify it completely. The current Arkham Batman makes him unable to see through either.

Wonder Woman is clearly still running around; she still wants to win the support of the internal members of the Justice League. Just as the banquet is about to end, and Arkham Knight also feels that all this is about to end, the door of the banquet hall is suddenly opened.

A team of fully armed agents rushes in. This scene stuns everyone. Green Lantern and Flash even didn't react for a while that they had superpowers, but like ordinary people, they were pushed by the agents to gather in the corner of the room.

Superman protects Batman and retreats backward at the first moment. But he soon realizes that federal agents should be under Batman's command, so he can't help but turn to look at him, but there is nothing on Arkham Batman's face.

In the chaotic crowd, the gaze sweeps over. The leading female agent has an overly beautiful face and a long red hair like fire.

"Central Intelligence Agency Federal Special Investigation Team, Natasha Romanoff. Ms. Diana Prince, the federal government now suspects that you are exercising espionage activities within the Federation on behalf of the Amazon, please cooperate with our investigation."

"What?!" Wonder Woman can't help but open her eyes wide, and then turns her head to look at Batman. When she sees those deep, cold blue eyes again, a kind of uncontrollable despair surges in her heart for the first time.

"Please cooperate with our investigation, lady." The red-haired female agent in front of her repeats again, her tone revealing a formulaic coldness.

"You cannot arrest me." Wonder Woman takes two steps back and says, "I am innocent. I have diplomatic immunity, you have no right to do this to me!"

"This is the arrest warrant and authorization issued by the federal government." Natasha shows her two documents again and says, "I am just acting according to orders, lady. Please cooperate."

Wonder Woman can't help but look at Batman with angry eyes, but sees the cold and ruthless man standing by the window say "Amazon" with his mouth shape.

The divine power surrounding Wonder Woman's arms dissipates. She stands in place and takes a deep breath, her shoulders trembling involuntarily. Those bright and luxurious gemstones didn't provide her with more confidence, just reflecting her pale and tired soul under her healthy skin tone.

"Sorry, lady." Natasha walks up, puts handcuffs on Wonder Woman, and lets her be taken away by the agents behind her.

"Take them all away." Natasha says, "Anyone who has had contact with the espionage suspect must be investigated."

The room suddenly explodes. Green Arrow stands out first, glaring angrily at Arkham Batman and saying: "What are you doing?! Batman! Are you trying to say we are all spies?!"

Since Wonder Woman was arrested, Flash's face has become a bit ugly. He clenches his fists, looks at Batman and says: "Diana cannot be a spy, Batman. There must be some misunderstanding in this, can you investigate it carefully again?"

Even Superman says: "Yes, Batman. You know, what need does Diana have to be a spy? She has done a lot for Metropolis, and has also spoken out several times for vicious cases that occurred on federal land. And the Amazon is just a small country that relies on tourism resources to get rich, what benefit is there in sending their princess over to be a spy?"

Arkham Batman only responds to Superman alone. He says in a voice that only the two of them can hear: "This has nothing to do with justice, but politics. Believe me."

Superman's expression is somewhat complex, and then he takes the initiative to stand out and says: "Will you lock us up with Diana?"

"You will all be investigated." Natasha says, "Please rest assured, the Central Intelligence Agency enforces the law in a civilized manner, no one will hurt you."

"If we are all locked up together, I can go with you." Superman takes the lead in expressing his position, "This way, if you have any excessive behavior, I can save my companions at the first moment. But I advise you not to do such things, even if I will try my best not to hurt you, humans are really too fragile."

Natasha hears the threat in Superman's tone. She nods and steps aside, letting her subordinates put handcuffs on Superman. Although no one thinks this thing can play a role, Superman still tries to tighten his muscles, maintaining the reliability of the handcuffs.

When Superman defects, the others have no way. When Green Arrow passes by Arkham Batman, he says: "One day you will pay the price for your arbitrariness."

"I'm waiting for that day." Arkham Batman says.

Arkham Knight is the last one to be taken away. He looks back, Arkham Batman is standing in the empty room. The exquisite food maintains its original appearance, flowers are blooming, and fine wine is flowing, but one can't see any posture of a winner from his back, but it carries a kind of inexplicable tragic.

Is it worth it? Arkham Batman asks in his heart. For power, for justice, forcing everyone to this point with himself. Is all this really worth it?
