Chapter 104

Brothers!!! Binge-update day!!! The 15th 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!!!

Inside the livestream.

All the viewers watched blankly as Su Chen laid bare his thoughts.

They watched even more as the initiative in the interrogation room, which should have belonged to the interrogator, was gradually seized by the Joker!

It was as if the Joker were the master of this interrogation room.

And.

Everyone could inexplicably feel that every word and every expression of the Joker was filled with sincerity!

Even if it didn't always follow logic!

But perhaps, in the Joker’s crazy mind, this was the most normal logic!

He... seemed to truly regard Batman as his kind and soulmate! Even as a lifelong nemesis to be fought!

[No way, the Joker really thinks Batman is the same kind of person as him??]

[What do I do... I think what he’s saying makes so much sense...]

[From certain angles, Gotham City is indeed what he says it is...]

[The Joker really has seen through human nature!]

[To be a good villain, you must first be a philosopher!]

[Brainwashing progress for Batman: 50%]

[Did you notice... I don't even know when the camera angle reversed! It’s like the Joker has seized the initiative!]

[Is it possible... that the Joker and Batman are just two sides of the same coin?!]

As the barrage surged.

Many viewers even felt that what the Joker said... actually seemed to make some sense!

And the Joker never seemed to have any intention of ambushing or killing Batman!

What he wanted to do, all along, was to attack the heart!

Attack Batman’s heart!

However, the next second!

The previously silent Batman suddenly erupted!

He grabbed Su Chen by the collar! Dragging him forcibly from across the table!

He didn't want to hear any more of the Joker’s rhetoric.

Regardless of whether it was sincere, there was only one question in his mind now, and he said:

"Where is Harvey?!"

"You think you can find salvation through these principles?"

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

This further enraged Batman, who had already intended to use violence!

Thud!!

He slammed him hard against the wall to the side!

And behind the glass!

All the officers watching this happen let out a low gasp.

Subconsciously, they turned to look at Gordon.

In the interrogation room... such violent behavior was not permitted...

Not to mention that Batman wasn't even one of their police officers!

Letting an outsider, or even a criminal who should be wanted by the police in the eyes of the public, participate in an interrogation!

This was already a serious overstep!

But seeing the gazes cast by the others.

Gordon hesitated for a moment, then said:

"He can control himself."

But Batman didn't seem to be able to control himself.

Inside the interrogation room.

Under the lights.

Batman lifted Su Chen up, warning him in a low voice:

"I only have one rule!"

"Then you’ll have to break that rule to find out the truth!"

Even though breathing was difficult, Su Chen still said with a strange smile:

"In this world! Having no principles is the wisest way to live!"

"And tonight, you will break your only rule!"

Batman held Su Chen, feeling the other man’s labored breathing.

There was no retreat in his tone.

"I’m considering it."

· ····Requesting flowers····· ·····

But Su Chen licked his lips, not realizing at all that he was being suppressed.

"There isn't much time left!"

"If you want to save one of them, you have to play my little game."

As the words fell.

Batman was silent for a moment, immediately sensing the problem in Su Chen’s words!

"Them?"

At this moment!

An extremely ominous premonition rose in his heart!

And all the viewers!

Felt a slight tremor in their hearts at this moment!

The "them" in Su Chen’s words... was definitely not a slip of the tongue!

.. 0 0

Then... who could it be, besides Harvey?!

Without waiting for everyone to ponder further.

Su Chen swallowed, speaking as if he were reminiscing.

"Honestly, I really thought you were Harvey for a moment."

"The way you jumped out to save that lady..."

"Hahahahahaha..."

At this point, Su Chen suddenly burst into laughter.

And this crazy laughter, combined with what he had said before.

Confirmed the possibility Batman least wanted to see!

Instantly!

Batman lifted Su Chen in a rage!

And slammed him hard against the interrogation table to the side!

Bang!!!

A heavy sound!

But it couldn't stop Su Chen’s manic laughter!

Brothers!! Wuwuwu, I’m running on empty!!! The 16th update!!! Please support with a few flowers and recommendation votes!!!

Instantly!

Batman’s furious action startled all the viewers!

But they immediately understood the reason for Batman’s rage!

Those few sentences Su Chen had just said!

Weren't they implying that he hadn't just kidnapped Harvey! But also Rachel!

And the reason.

Was simply the look on Batman’s face when he saw him save Rachel!

He had immediately judged that Rachel was very important to Batman!

Not just the viewers! This loud crash startled the group of detectives in the observation room behind the glass!

This was no longer the threatening behavior of grabbing a collar like before!

This was blatant assault!

What happened to being able to control himself?!

Instantly!

Gordon ran toward the door of the interrogation room!

But Batman was faster, bringing a chair from the interrogation room to wedge the door shut!

But facing Batman’s brutality.

"Look at you!"

Su Chen laughed mockingly.

"Does Harvey know about the thing between you and his sweetheart?"

But undoubtedly!

This sentence would be met with an even angrier attack!

As Su Chen was slammed against the glass!

A crisp sound!

Cracks spread across the surface of the window!

"Where are they?!"

Batman completely lost his mind, roaring in anger.

"Killing is a choice."

Bang!

Batman’s punch landed on Su Chen’s face, cutting off his words.

"Where are they?!"

But Su Chen still continued to state the rules to himself.

"You can only choose to save one life!"

"Your prosecutor friend! Or his future bride!"

Bang!!

Another angry, heavy punch!

Blood sprayed!

But on the floor.

Su Chen leaned against the wall to the side, laughing manically!

He managed to straighten up, but was still laughing so hard he couldn't catch his breath!

"You have nothing you can use to threaten me!"

"No matter how strong you are, it’s useless!"

And facing Su Chen, who was sitting on the floor laughing.

Batman, even though he was incredibly angry! Could only be silent in his rage!

He was completely helpless against Su Chen!

Just as Su Chen said!

No matter how strong he was, it was useless! He had nothing he could use to threaten Su Chen! Including Su Chen’s life! He had no right to take it!

Or rather, Su Chen didn't care about that life!

And now.

Even though Su Chen was sitting on the floor suffering his violence!

The initiative was still in Su Chen’s hands!

In this interrogation room.

The one in the position of strength had always been Su Chen!

Not him!

For a moment.

In the entire interrogation room, besides Batman’s heavy breathing.

There was only Su Chen’s manic, incredibly joyful laughter!

In front of the screen.

Zhang Laomou commented at the right moment.

"Actually, from the beginning until now, the most reasonable person in this interrogation room... is actually the Joker."

"Gordon at the beginning couldn't out-argue the Joker, and he also harbored guilt toward Harvey in his heart, so he left the interrogation room."

"And now Batman, unable to out-argue the Joker, resorts to violence."

"Even if in Batman’s eyes, the Joker is likely just a complete lunatic, he can barely refute anything this lunatic says!"

"To a certain extent! What the Joker says is the truth; it is the darkness that naturally exists beneath human nature!"

Zhang Laomou paused.

He made no secret of his appreciation and admiration for the Joker.

"And from start to finish, the one who has held the initiative in this entire interrogation room has always been the Joker!"

"At first, Batman wanted to sit down and talk, so the Joker talked to Batman sincerely."

"But now Batman has used violence, blocking the Joker’s mouth."

"So the Joker simply announces that the game has begun!"

"And now, what awaits Batman is the most agonizing choice."

"It is also a choice that forces him to break his own principles!"

And in the footage.

Batman was also terrified of being dominated by Su Chen!

He grabbed the manically laughing Su Chen with both hands.

And the latter had no intention of hiding anything.

"Don't worry, I’ll tell you where they both are."

"That’s the point, you have to choose!"

"Harvey is at 250 52nd Street."

"And Rachel... is on X Street in Cicero!"

Before the words had even faded!

Batman threw Su Chen heavily to the ground! He rushed out of the interrogation room door to head to the scene!
