~9 min read 1,613 words

"What time is it?"

Su Chen gave an answer that had nothing to do with the question.

"What does that have to do with anything?"

"Only by knowing what time it is can you know..."

Su Chen shook his head, as if cracking a joke from hell.

"Whether he is in one place, or everywhere."

As he spoke, he used his hands to exaggeratedly demonstrate what it meant to be "everywhere."

................/................

Instantly, many viewers in the livestream couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.

[Cough, cough... sorry... that "everywhere" part was too vivid...]

[I shouldn't be laughing either... I'm sorry, Harvey!]

[Could the Joker have arranged everything in advance?!]

[Knowing this much... he must have been prepared!]

[Then why did he still get caught?!]

[Holy crap... don't tell me even getting caught was intentional!!]

[As it stands, the police force really has been heavily infiltrated by the gangs!]

[Even the subordinates of an old veteran like Gordon have betrayed him...]

[The main thing is, if you don't side with the gangs, the Joker really will kill you!]

[That's right... they even dare to kill judges and police commissioners, let alone a few small-time detectives! Betraying them saves your life and gets you a payout!]

After saying this.

Su Chen tilted his head and raised an eyebrow at Gordon.

The latter, however, uncharacteristically took a key out of his pocket.

"If you want to play this game..."

Gordon said, unlocking the handcuffs that tethered Su Chen to the interrogation table.

"I need a cup of coffee."

With that, Gordon walked straight toward the door.

Su Chen immediately understood the other man's intent.

He tilted his head, smiling as he called Gordon out.

"Ah~ playing good cop, bad cop, are we?"

"Not exactly."

As Gordon pulled the interrogation room door open and walked out.

Su Chen looked at the empty room and licked his lips.

All the viewers were confused!

They had been able to follow along before...

But at these last few lines of dialogue, everyone was completely bewildered.

What kind of code were they speaking?!

However, the next second.

As the interrogation room door slammed shut!

The viewers understood what Su Chen meant by "good cop, bad cop"!

The one who speaks nicely has had their turn.

The one who speaks harshly is coming in next.

Thud!

The moment the door closed!

All the lights in the interrogation room flared to life!

And all the viewers were given a fright!

Behind Su Chen!

Batman’s figure had appeared out of nowhere!

Or rather... he had been hiding in that darkness since the interrogation began!

Su Chen naturally knew this perfectly well! Otherwise, he wouldn't have said those things just now!

The next second!

Thud!!

With Batman’s incredibly brutal movement!

Su Chen’s head was slammed hard against the interrogation table!

A dull thud!

But Su Chen didn't seem surprised by this at all! He had even known all along that Batman would use violence!

Clutching his forehead, he let out an exaggerated wail, then began to lecture Batman very earnestly.

"—Don't start with the head! Otherwise, the victim will feel dizzy and won't be able to feel your next round of torture!"

But before he could finish!

Batman slammed another punch hard into Su Chen’s hand!

Yet this heavy, powerful blow didn't make Su Chen let out a single wail.

"See!"

Su Chen pointed to his palm.

As if to say, 'See, I told you not to start with the head; now that you're hitting my hand, I can't even feel it!'

For a moment.

Batman was also somewhat silent.

[At a time like this, the Joker is actually still teaching Batman interrogation techniques?!]

[He really is, I'm dying!]

[The Joker knew about Batman's presence from the start?!]

[Definitely... otherwise, why would he talk like that!]

[Gordon leaves, Batman enters... I'm afraid things are going to get violent now!]

[But... is it even within the rules to use violence in front of the police...]

[I don't think it's a question of rules anymore... Harvey is about to be blown into pieces!]

Brothers!!! Binge-update day!!! The 14th update!!! Please support with a few flowers and recommendation votes!!!

I'm going all out today!! Aiming for 20 updates!! A minimum of 40,000 words guaranteed!!!

"You wanted to find me, and here I am."

Batman sat down, facing Su Chen.

Those first two blows, aside from venting his own anger.

Also had the purpose of suppressing the Joker’s arrogance.

But as it stands.

It doesn't seem to have been of much use.

So Batman didn't want to waste any more breath and got straight to the point.

And this was also his first serious conversation with the Joker!

Opposite him.

The makeup on Su Chen’s face was somewhat mottled.

Much of it had faded.

Especially the forehead that had just been beaten, the white paint had almost faded away! Looking somewhat disheveled.

But Su Chen didn't care about this physical pain at all, staring straight into Batman's eyes.

Using an unprecedentedly serious tone, he said.

"I've always wanted to see what you would do, and you didn't disappoint me."

"You let five people die in vain."

As he spoke.

A smile of appreciation appeared on Su Chen's face, and he raised his eyebrows, as if acknowledging Batman's ruthlessness.

Licking his lips, he continued to praise Batman's actions.

"And then you actually let Harvey take the fall for you! Even I think you're truly ruthless!"

"Where is Harvey?"

Batman finally couldn't endure Su Chen's behavior of throwing dirt on him.

In the other's words.

He had actually become a person without a bottom line who watched five lives be killed by the Joker and pushed all the blame onto Harvey!

But he didn't know.

Everything this Joker in front of him said came from the bottom of his heart!

As their first formal meeting.

The Joker's first sentence was extremely serious; Batman's actions did not disappoint him!

He really watched five people die and then dumped the blame on Harvey!

The Joker truly believed that Batman was a ruthless person, just like him!

In this clever and crazy head of the Joker, these were the most normal behaviors!

If it were him doing it.

Although the process might be different, the result would be exactly the same as Batman's!

Batman was his kind!

And also his only opponent!

Everyone else was just a fool!

But Batman couldn't possibly know the crazy logic in the Joker's head.

"Where is Harvey?"

But Su Chen seemed not to hear, continuing to speak to himself.

"Those mob fools thought you had disappeared and everything would return to normal!"

"Only I know the truth! You have changed everything, there's no turning back!"

"Never!"

Unknowingly.

With the camera pushing in.

It was as if the Joker was taking the initiative in this interrogation room!

In front of the Joker, Batman was the weak one!

And at this point.

Batman also asked the most crucial question.

"Then why do you want to kill me?"

The next second!

Without warning!

Su Chen burst into laughter, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world! Laughing until he could barely catch his breath!

"I don't want to kill you!"

While laughing, Su Chen said, his tone full of strangeness.

Strange as to why Batman would see him that way?

How could he possibly kill Batman?!

And opposite him.

Batman watched Su Chen quietly.

He couldn't see through what this person was thinking at all.

But what he said seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.

And Su Chen was still revealing his inner thoughts.

"What would I do without you... go back to robbing mob money??"

"No, no!"

As if imagining such a scene in his mind.

Startled, Su Chen shook his head again quickly.

"No, no, no! It's you, you make me more complete!"

By the end.

Su Chen's expression was exceptionally serious, his body leaning forward.

Sincerely wanting to treat Batman as a soulmate!

But the other party didn't appreciate it at all.

"You're just a piece of trash who kills for money!"

"Don't talk like them, you're different from them!"

Su Chen suddenly became a little angry.

Angry that Batman's rhetoric was just like those other fools, that he actually viewed him this way?!

Clearly, he and he were the same kind!

In the entire Gotham City, only he and he were different existences!

Batman single-handedly brought order back to the chaotic Gotham City! Like divine retribution in the dark night! Making everyone afraid to do evil!

And Su Chen wanted to return everything to chaos! To make people stop restraining the darkness in their hearts! To recklessly cross the bottom line!

But without Batman.

The process of him clearing this game would be too easy!

And Batman would be his nemesis! A lifelong nemesis!

"Even if you want to be like them! To them, you're just a freak!"

"Just like me!"

"They need you now, but when they don't need you, they'll avoid you like the plague!"

Su Chen said, pointing to the other side of the interrogation room glass, his tone becoming increasingly disdainful and contemptuous.

As if foreseeing Batman's future, feeling a bit of injustice for him.

"Their morals! Their principles!"

"They're all just a bad joke!"

"When trouble comes, they forget everything!"

"Of course, everything is fine in peaceful times!"

"When a crisis hits, these civilized people..."

"They will kill each other!"

Saying this.

Su Chen nodded, affirming his own view.

After finishing.

Su Chen relaxed and leaned back in his chair.

Summarizing with extreme seriousness.

"So, I'm not a monster."

"I'm just ahead of everyone else!"
