Chapter 96

While countless viewers were discussing crazily.

Although they had been looking forward to the showdown between the Joker and Batman.

But no one expected that the means the Joker would take would be such a crazy and bottom-line-breaking act!

And while they were discussing.

The camera turned.

Time had already reached the evening.

Batman's penthouse mansion was brightly lit!

And tonight.

The fundraising gala held for Harvey was being held here!

And all the socialites and elites who were chatting and laughing didn't know.

A grand entrance belonging to the Joker, a shadow belonging to them, was slowly descending!

Brothers!!! It's the weekly crazy update time again!!

On the premise of ensuring an update of more than ten thousand words every day! Last Saturday, seventeen chapters were updated in one day! A total of forty thousand words! It took several days to recover!

Today's goal is to challenge twenty updates! Three chapters have been updated since the early morning! I forgot to count the previous ones! This is the fourth update! I ask all authors for some encouragement and support!!!

The scene changed.

Harvey and his girlfriend Rachel walked out of the elevator.

In sight was Batman Wayne's penthouse mansion!

In the living room of several hundred square meters.

Countless socialites and elites had gathered!

Whether in politics or business! They were all dressed appropriately, showing elegance and upper-class style!

And clearly.

District Attorney Harvey wasn't used to this so-called upper-class social occasion.

Accompanied by the roar of a helicopter!

Everyone's attention at the scene was attracted!

Turning to the helicopter that was slowly landing on the platform outside!

And the one who came down from the helicopter was naturally the owner of this mansion, the controller of Wayne Enterprises!

And the initiator of this gala!

Batman, Bruce Wayne!

With an aura of infinite wealth, Wayne walked into the banquet hall with three female companions.

Everyone's eyes were on him.

This aura that controlled the whole scene made all the viewers look sideways!

But some sensitive viewers couldn't help but frown.

The protagonist of this gala....

Should logically be the newly appointed District Attorney, Harvey, the "Knight of Light" who had just cleared out almost all the gang bosses for Gotham City and made a huge contribution to Gotham City's public order!

But at this moment.

Clearly, the core of everything, all eyes, were focused on Wayne!

As if it were an innate aura!

In this place of socialites accumulated by money, Wayne was the only undisputed focus!

And the protagonist of the banquet, Harvey!

At this time, he could only stand in the crowd, watching Wayne's entrance like an unrelated passerby!

And although.

Wayne also grandly introduced Harvey under everyone's gaze, praising him greatly!

But watching Wayne praise Harvey...

...everyone inexplicably associated it with a scene....

A lord with absolute control was knighting his loyal knight!

At this moment, the gap between Harvey and Wayne was extremely wide and real!

And while the banquet was going on.

Commissioner Gordon found that a bigger crisis was coming!

The judge in charge of the trial was sitting in the car.

Opening the letter delivered to her by two police officers just now.

And as she opened the envelope...

...on a blank sheet of paper were only a few simple words.

[Look up]

The judge looked up in confusion.

But at this very moment!

Boom!!!

A deafening explosion!

Fire soared into the sky!

The entire car was swallowed by the explosion!!

And the two police officers responsible for delivering the letter left the scene without changing their expressions.

The scene of the explosion!

Countless cards were scattered all over the sky!

Looking closely... they realized they were playing cards!

Among them, the Joker card representing the big king was very conspicuous!

On the other side.

Gordon received the news.

He rushed to the Police Commissioner's office.

This assassination...

...was aimed at both the judge and the Commissioner!

And police officers had already been sent to protect the judge's safety.

The Commissioner here also had his own arrival.

Gordon breathed a sigh of relief.

But the Commissioner was different from Gordon's panic, pouring himself a drink leisurely.

"You have to explain to my wife why I didn't get home in time for dinner."

"Commissioner, your DNA was found on the Joker's card!"

"How could they get my DNA?"

The Commissioner didn't take it too seriously and asked casually.

And while Gordon was looking at the entry permissions in his hand, he said:

"It must be someone who can enter your office or your home, who stole the tissue or cup you used."

And just as Gordon was looking down and speaking...

...the Commissioner didn't care, picked up the wine glass, and took a shallow sip.

"Wait!!"

Gordon looked up, and only then did he see this scene that made his heart tighten!

But! It was simply too late to stop it!

Along with the sound of a glass falling onto the table!

The Commissioner slumped helplessly to the floor!

And the wine spilled from the glass was emitting a constant stream of smoke...

Clearly, someone had put a deadly poison in the wine the Commissioner had been drinking!

It had only been a matter of minutes!

While the gala was still in full swing, and everyone was enjoying the high-society banquet!

The two people responsible for the case that had nearly rounded up every gang in Gotham City!

One judge!

One commissioner!

Had both been assassinated!

And both assassinations were successful!

Even though the police had done their utmost to protect and rescue them!

But clearly.

The police force had been infiltrated by gang forces to the point where there was no gap left untouched!

[Holy crap... a judge and a commissioner... just like that, easily killed off?!]

[This is what an infiltrated police force looks like!!]

[Too terrifying... you absolutely cannot underestimate gang forces when they stop playing by the rules!]

[The Joker’s operation this time, I’m afraid it’s not just targeting these two people, right?!]

[Too ruthless! Taking out two high-ranking officials at once! Now that the police have just arrested all the gang bosses, they didn't even have time to feel proud before getting slapped in the face again!]

[This is the Joker targeting the anti-gang operation! He is crushing the morale of the Gotham City authorities!]

[Wait... if we're talking about the mastermind behind this event... it’s not just the judge and the police commissioner!]

[Holy crap! The most important person... isn't it District Attorney Harvey?!]

Suddenly!

Viewers in the comments realized it! Countless people felt their hair stand on end!

The Joker’s true target...

Might not be the judge and the commissioner at all!

Their deaths were very likely just a side effect.

And it also served to divert the police’s manpower and attention!

The Joker’s true target from beginning to end!

Was the person leading this entire operation!

The new District Attorney, Harvey!!

And as a chill ran down the spines of countless viewers!

The camera cut away.

What appeared on screen...

Was a group of people taking the elevator to the penthouse mansion!

A detective in the lead flashed his badge to clear the way.

And behind him...

A purple suit was faintly visible!

I’m going all out today!! Aiming for twenty chapters!! A minimum of forty thousand words!!!
