Laughing American comics, I am becoming more and more like a clown

They raided the Gotham Armory and blew up Arkham Asylum. Before the guards could react, drones began dropping stolen weapons... The entire asylum's power supply was cut off, the backup power supply was blown up, and the cell door holding dangerous elements was opened in the chaos...

Almost immediately the lunatics began to stir up trouble.

The Mad Hatter controlled the asylum's caregivers and guards; Poison Ivy manipulated all the visitors to Robinson Park; the psychopathic killer Zsasz broke into the girls' school and took hostages...

Dozens of homicides occur every hour across Gotham, and to make matters worse, Robin disappears before they even happen.

"Batman, Firefly set fire to the Commercial Building. The fire brigade has been dispatched, and the fire is now spreading to Grant Park..." James Gordon's voice came from the communicator, and there was a lot of noise around him.

In many people's impressions, the Gotham Police Department is useless except for dragging its feet and picking up Batman's achievements, but in fact, especially after Gordon became the director, the police department has gradually been able to accomplish many things - homicide, arson, economic crimes, large-scale unrest - they can at least ensure that there is water in the fire hydrants, but that group of super criminals is really beyond their reach.

Batman understood Gordon's dilemma, so he said, "I'll take care of it."

It was raining heavily outside and the sky was dark and gloomy. The dripping stone beasts on the top of the building had been corroded by acid rain and their features were blurred.

……

"Batman, we need help in Robinson Park. The herbicide we used last time doesn't work on Poison Ivy. She..."

"I'll take care of it."

……

"Batman, Scarecrow has held the mayor hostage. Damn it! Part of the police force is paralyzed. There's an information vacuum between the Municipal District and the Diamond District, and they can't communicate."

"I'll take care of it."

……

"bat……"

"I'll take care of it."

Batman works at night, so does showing up now count as overtime?

Volunteer police officers don’t care why they don’t get paid for working overtime, after all, they don’t get paid for working.

According to the original plot, Robin would discover based on clues that Bane was the mastermind behind the incident and remind Batman... although Batman didn't listen.

This Robin was later known as Red Robin, Timothy Drake, who was known as the best detective besides Batman. He had the ability to find the murderer behind the scenes... but the current Jason Todd might not be able to do that.

Some people may ask, why can't he do it, where is Jason Todd in the original plot?

In the horrible poison gas that Batman inhaled.

Now that Jason is alive, if Batman faces the terrifying poison gas again, it will probably be very cliché, like seeing his parents again.

It's true that major events come and go, but Batman's parents remain forever... Actually, if you think about it, the Gotham villains are quite conscientious. They know that Batman misses his parents, and they all tacitly let Batman see them.

"Who wouldn't be broken by the words 'Your mother is dead'? Answer: Batman."

"……what are you saying?"

"truth."

Lucian pretended not to notice Jason's hesitant look. In fact, after he learned that Bane had taken action, he felt a sense of excitement for unknown reasons. This excitement did not disrupt his judgment, but it was enough to make him make jokes frequently.

The missing Robin is here with Lucien, and the reason is simple. Jason has not given up his suspicion of "Oberon Sexton". He checked the audio and video of "Oberon Sexton" meeting with the Riddler... Both parties are very suspicious, not to mention the almost explicit discussion of Batman's identity during the conversation.

When things develop as Oberon Sexton expected, Jason will naturally come to him, and Lucian only needs to wait and see.

"Are you arresting me to leave Batman alone?"

At this moment, there is a TV in front of them, on which Gotham's urgent cases are urgently broadcast: Mr. Freeze, Kite Man, Calendar Man, Killer Moth, Professor Pig-faced, Dr. Phosphate, Solomon... These more or less famous people appear in various places in Gotham, committing crimes without mercy.

There are too many people, and it seems that whatever Batman does will be in vain. He needs Robin.

"Not really. Although I may look suspicious, please believe that I have good intentions." Lucian glanced at the news on TV, then looked at Jason.

"They are not the murderers. Batman can handle it. Jason, aren't you curious about who is behind this?"

"It's Bane. He wants to weaken Batman and sneak into Wayne Manor to attack him when he's exhausted. It's useless for you to stop these minions. It's like an ant trying to shake a tree."

"Why would you ask me to trust you?" Jason glanced at the ropes binding his hands and feet and scoffed, "These?"

Lucien laughed, "I thought the tortoise shell knot was the only knot that could hold you."

(Tortoise shell bondage is a kind of erotic bondage play.)

"Think about it carefully, Robin, calm down. Even though I caught you, you should be able to understand that I have no ill intentions."

Jason didn't let this put him off guard and asked, "What do you want?"

Lucian was straightforward and said, "The location of the nearest Batman safe house. I want a complete Batman suit."

?

To be honest, Jason was prepared for any kind of excessive demands, but he didn't expect them to be like this.

This is another Batman fanatic.

"Besides, I have another request."

As expected, Jason calmed down. How could it be so simple? All this effort just to get a Batsuit? It didn't make sense. Even the Joker, in his purest years, wouldn't commit a crime just to get a Batman item. Jason waited for him to reveal his true purpose, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"You'll be my Robin today."

"Remember, anyone who asks you must tell them you are my Robin."

Jason:?

……

"This is Batman's safe house in Crime Alley, and inside is the Batsuit."

Jason, who had originally intended to take advantage of the situation to escape or subdue Lucian, was now covered in dust, with a suspicious footprint on his calf. He had a blank expression on his face: "What do you want to do?"

Lucian seemed to be strolling leisurely, even refreshed, as if he was not the one who had just fought with Jason.

Press the switch, the glass cover rises, and the bat suit is taken out:

"Call me Batman, Robin."

Chapter 240 Who told you that Bruce Wayne is Batman?

"Listen, Robin."

Along the way, Jason tried to escape many times, but failed. As he got closer to Wayne Manor, he stopped trying to leave.

"Your bat dad will be passing by soon. I have some kidney tablets here." Lucian said kidney tablets, while handing over a few epinephrines.

"A beautiful woman has come to the manor and wants to sleep with your father. Remind your father to take out the props from the beautiful woman's body before going in. Also, be careful not to let your father have a child with her."

……

Batman is still being harassed by the super villain and cannot get away. Bane takes this opportunity to enter Wayne Manor and prepare to kidnap Alfred. After that, he just needs to wait until the exhausted Batman arrives at the manor to defeat Batman in one fell swoop and win.

There is nothing wrong with such a plan, and Bane was successful in the original plot.

That's assuming he doesn't see Batman in Wayne Manor.

——Hidden in the darkness, like an inconspicuous armored sculpture, but without any hesitation, it truly walked out of the darkness, and its familiar features explained its identity.

Batman shouldn't be here.

...No matter how fast he goes, someone will stop him... At least the news will come.

Bane didn't move forward, but he wasn't scared off either. He remained alert, glancing outside through the window with his peripheral vision—his men were still where they were supposed to be.

This Batman wasn't the one stuck in the Gotham quagmire.

——It’s a fake.

"Your outfit is amazing, but if you want to scare me off..." Bane and the fake Batman both stood there. It was a rainy day and the light was dim, and there was no light. This was not the Batcave, but a room in Wayne Manor.

"Nightwing, Robin, Gordon, Pennyworth... or Batgirl?"

"No matter who you are, I can turn you into a gift for Batman."

This room is located at a low altitude and the view is not very good. Through the window, you can see the upper part of the manor - the owner of the manor, Batman, has returned and is now fighting with the men stationed here by Bane. The long-term high-intensity battle has exhausted his physical strength, and his movements are slow and tired.

But the fake Batman in front of Bane had brand new armor and was in prime condition... This was not the state that a person who had fought for days and nights would display. This was just a fake.

"Bane." The fake Batman suddenly spoke, his voice as hoarse and dark as ever.

"Born with your father's sins, you were imprisoned in Santa Prisca and raised in a dark cell. You read every book in the prison, used force to recapture the other prisoners, and due to a conflict with the warden, you participated in human experiments... Contrary to everyone's expectations, you survived, improved your physical fitness, and killed the prison guards by faking your own death, leading your fellow inmates to Gotham."

"It's worth mentioning that you've had nightmares about bat monsters since you were little, and you mistook Gotham's Batman for a real-life bat monster. So you were determined to defeat Batman... and because you were timid, you didn't dare to face Batman in his prime, so you orchestrated this series of events."

This fake bat tells everything in detail, and the detailed and sufficient information itself gives people a sense of oppression.

"But you were wrong about one thing, Bane. You successfully recognized Bruce Wayne as Batman and successfully made him fall, but...how did you know for sure that Batman was a human?"

The fake Batman in front of him raised his head, revealing his sharp chin that was hidden in the dark due to the light - he did not hide the differences between himself and the "real Batman", and showed them nakedly.

……

It wasn't difficult for Bane to deduce that Bruce Wayne was Batman - the excessive injuries from extreme sports, his unusual attention to the Justice League and superhero career, the fact that he was rescued by Batman many times when he was kidnapped... and the different body shape of Batman when Bruce Wayne and Batman appeared at the same time.

It was easier for Bane to deduce that Bruce Wayne was Batman than it was to recognize that Barry Allen was the Flash.

(P.S. In film and television works, it seems that everyone in Central City knows that Barry Allen is the Flash except for his partner.)

In addition to Bruce Wayne, there will also be Superman Batman, Gordon Batman, Nightwing Batman and other situations. They will occasionally play a temporary role. Bane already knew this information during the investigation, and the different types of Batman who appeared briefly did not leave an impression on his inference.

Batman is Bruce Wayne—he firmly believes it.

Therefore, Bane now would not believe the one-sided words of this fake Batman, but out of caution, he was testing it. In any case, this fake Batman was a variable that was no longer in the plan.

But obviously, the fake Batman was more impulsive. He said those words as if reciting a line and then walked forward.

The venom on his back flowed into his body along his spinal cord, causing Bane's body to grow larger and his muscles to swell to an exaggerated extent - he had no intention of underestimating his enemy, and this fake Batman Bane had not been investigated before.

When Bane injected himself with venom, the fake Batman attacked first.

Bane dodged several times and figured out his level - he was surprised at the man's weakness, so he stepped forward decisively, seized the flaw, and broke the back of this fake Batman without showing any mercy.

The sound of the spine breaking was crisp and pleasant.

Unlike the fake one, the fake one had no ability to struggle, not even like a maggot. Unsurprisingly, its body was strangely bent like a mollusk and it became motionless.

"boom--"

Time dragged on for a long time, so Bane threw him to the ground, turned around and looked through the window to see where the real Bat was - Batman had already subdued some people, and he would be here in fifteen minutes at most.
