There are always stories that happen in the fragments of time, just like Gotham's always inconspicuous alleys.
Batman has always had many plans for his city, but the most important one is to make it better and become a city without Batman, without fear and pain.
Unfortunately, reality does not allow this, just like changing a building on a drawing, but it cannot be changed.
So Batman is still there.
But he does have the money to build a lot of buildings in the real Gotham City.
After taking the city back from Bain, Bruce increased his investment in the education system.
He used the money to open up the road to the state government, bought a large area of unfinished buildings near the east coast, and built the ‘Wayne College’ here, which, to put it bluntly, is a super technical school.
Maybe after young people learn a skill here, they won't participate in any ‘street vitality groups’ anymore?
No, Batman is not so naive. In his eyes, there are only criminals and suspicious people who have not committed crimes for the time being. The reason why he built the school is also dark, because it can improve his control of the grassroots intelligence in this city.
For example, students in the auto repair class are likely to be engaged in the car theft industry after graduation. Their technology will definitely be better than those of Ye Luzi, so as to gain a larger market and position, and let the crime industry invade itself.
And because he is a student from his own school, Batman will have all the information of these people in several years of observation, even how often they talk in sleep, and even what color of underpants they like.
He is a contradictory person, he has ideals in his heart, but he is always preparing with the other hand.
The city is still the same in today's night, and he still needs to find his old friends in the city and continue to play games for many years.
The clown gave him a clue. It was not the snowflake photo in that email, but what he called "Many people will die with joy", commonly known as being killed by laughing gas.
In other words, that lunatic must have kidnapped a lot of people, and transportation of those people must be tools, so what Batman needs to investigate is where a large-scale disappearance occurred and the unusual trajectory of freight vehicles.
There are wind and snow in the city, and there are not many people going out in this cold weather, so the actions of any large vehicle will become conspicuous.
"Batgirl, how many people have the clown kidnapped."
He had locked the traces of the vehicle, and several trucks went to the reservoir in the east of Gotham at dusk, which is the area with the underground drainage channel into the sea.
Barbara is still in this city, but the weather is too cold, and she doesn't have the cold-resistant equipment that Batman got from the rogue gang, so she is now in the base called'Clock Tower' , Regained his hacking work as an'oracle' and contacted Batman remotely.
Only at this time, she seemed very hesitant to speak, as if she had doubts about her investigation results.
"Tell me the numbers, don't care if it is right or not, I will judge." Batman's voice came again. In the dusty clock tower, even the white cloth covering the device was not lifted.
The Raptor team has not been active here for a long time, but the girl has been maintaining it since setting up the Gordon Fund.
"About 2000 people, Batman." Barbara pushed the glasses on his nose and quickly tapped the keyboard: "It's almost impossible. It's impossible for the Joker to take so many people away by himself and the female attendant."
"There is nothing impossible, just these people take the initiative to follow him, then all he needs to do is send a group of text messages." Bats are the people who know clowns best, and know how influential the lunatic has in the city: "Check this Clues, hack into all communication providers, I will let Brother Eyes investigate the message boards on the Internet."
His clown gang, his followers of Chaos Theory have always been there.
When the clown is dormant, those lunatics will also take off the white masks with clown makeup and hide in the society.
They may be police, taxi drivers, or anyone. The clown taught them how to be crazy, and Hallie taught them how to pretend to be normal people.
Hallie patted her and stopped washing her hands. She also said to be a good girl, but the mess she left behind will probably accompany Gotham forever.
Now that the Joker is back, his followers will once again put him on the throne, waiting for a new round of contest between him and Batman.
"I found out. These lunatics have created hundreds of online forums for him." Barbara's hands are not only good at hitting people, but also on the keyboard. She even grabbed the eyes of her brothers: "But some of them have Strangely speaking, a user named "Scary Ghost" called the clown fans to a place to gather, saying that they wanted everyone to hug each other to keep warm in the winter."
"Cold joke, this reminds me of the death knell, but this is the style of the new clown's attendant. According to the information provided by Luther, she is called the laughing point."
Batman calmly jumped into the Batmobile parked in the alley downstairs. He needed a tank equipped with non-lethal weapons to solve the threat of the crowd.
"Luthor really betrayed the clown. That bald head has never been credible." Barbara complained. She had been paying attention to the trials of that century. When Luther was acquitted and released, she almost put her home. My microwave bowl is smashed.
"I know, but Superman believes him."
Batman set up autopilot, and then began to take out some small things from his belt to prepare for certain measures.
"Superman believes in anyone because he is Superman." Batgirl was unable to complain, and even felt a little tired: "Because he is invulnerable, and his son is invulnerable. Speaking of which, haven't you taken care of Robin's disappearance?"
The wind and snow could not cover the fast-moving Batmobile. The black heavy armored vehicle sprayed with blue tail flames, leaving black tire marks on the street and drifting brakes from time to time.
"He went to look for his mother, and Thalia and I were having trouble with the kitten." Batman's voice remained steady, as if nothing would affect his mood: "Now Focusing on our mission, the clown’s followers may be planning to collectively set themselves on fire, but we cannot let them die."
"Okay, I see, do you need me to go over and help you?" Barbara moved her neck, even though her spine would be painful even today when she heard the laughter of the clown: "Also, don't talk about it. The name cat is simply too numb and unsuitable for you."
"..." Batman was silent, indicating that the topic was over.
But Barbara suddenly sat up straight from the chair. She zoomed in on a section of the road to monitor. After careful observation, she pulled the headset closer to her mouth again:
"Batman, there is a new situation. I saw the death knell entering the city, and he took a few friends with him."
"Which death knell?"
"No cloak, no pets, the old one."
