Chapter 22: The Day of the Knight and the Beginning of Madness

In the dark space, a figure sat on a chair, and her beautiful figure showed that the figure sitting on the chair was a lady. In the room, the hanging light bulb flickered on and off, and the not-so-bright light bulb barely illuminated the area around the figure, and also reflected the face of this figure, Harley Quinn, the Harley Quinn who once fell in love with the Joker, and now the independent Harley Quinn.

The light bulb, which flickered on and off a few times, was not bright but enough to wake Harley awake her eyelids and wake her up from her slumber. Looking at the endless darkness in the light area, Harley stood up, relying on the not-so-bright light, groping in the dark, this environment, this strange technique, made her constantly grope for the so-called exit in the dark, and also matched it with the figure in her mind.

โ€œMrยท J๏ผŸ Pudding, is that you? โ€

Although in the Gotham Revolution a few months ago, the Joker and the self-proclaimed Silence were defeated by the Kamen Rider Curvin and Batman, the Silence dissipated due to the genetic collapse, and the Joker also jumped into the pool of the chemical plant in front of Batman, and was swallowed by the extremely corrosive potion, leaving no bones left in the explosion of the chemical factory. But the Joker is one such being, a guy who plays with the impossible in applause, just like Batman, even if he watches the Joker die in front of him, he may sit up from the ground in a second and grin at you.

"Hah... Haยทยทยท Ha, yes, Hallie, it's me~"

The Joker's prolonged laugh rang out at the edge of the light, and as she looked at the sound, Harley saw a faint humanoid silhouette standing at the edge. With the help of this light, she could see the clown's yellow teeth that had not been brushed for days or even months. But Harley felt fear of the clown who appeared in front of her at this time, yes, fear, the clown in front of her was undoubtedly the clown she knew, but to Hallie, he felt that he was more pure, pure was a kind of crazy chaos.

"What can I do for you, Mr. J, also, where did Ivy go. Looking at the Joker, Hallie was also there to care about the Poison Ivy Girl who got along with her after getting rid of the Joker, since she appeared here, it could only mean that the Poison Ivy Girl was arrested, and the Joker wanted to let herself do something for him.

"Oh. She's in her favorite place, right now, take off her clothes and change into these. โ€

As soon as he threw it away, the clown, who was hiding in the dark, threw over a set of men's clothes. And Hallie didn't hesitate, quickly took off the clothes on her body and showed herself naked in front of the Joker, which was enough to make the man's criminal body not arouse the Joker's desire, but yes, in the eyes of the Joker, there is only Batman. Then she changed her clothes and put on her shoes, and under the disguise of clothes and shoes, Harley at this time was almost the same as the Joker in terms of body shape and height.

"Well, it's great, it's very similar to me, except for this face, it looks like I'm going to have to get it off, just like me..."

Commenting on Harley at this time, the Joker also walked out of the edge of the darkness, and then, Harley saw such a face. The edges of the miserable white face are roughly sewn together with the musculature with black lines, exposing the blood-red musculature, which contrasts sharply with the miserable white skin, such a face is enough to make everyone who sees it in the dark have nightmares!

Even Harley at this time was like this, watching the clown come out of the darkness, the razor in his hand moving back and forth on his cheeks, the sheer chaos, the madness gnawing at his heart like an ant. But Harley didn't tremble because of this, but looked at the clown who was hovering around her, and the clown was also looking at Harley's pretty face.

"Yes, will it hurt?" Harley asked, and although her body did not tremble with the Joker's fear, her voice betrayed her mood at the moment.

"It hurts, more than anything you've ever experienced in your life, especially your eyes." The clown said to Harley in a passer-by, "Without eyelids, your eyes will become very dry, so you need to prepare eye drops often, but don't worry, it's more uncomfortable at first, and then your blood flow will help moisturize your eyeballs." โ€

Listening to the Joker's description, Harley began to panic, and she had to admit that the current Joker was beyond her reach. But she still didn't make much of a move to resist, because she knew the Joker, probably.

"No, no, no, I don't think I'm ready!" She screamed.

But Hallie's screams did not stop the clown, the clown's movements were so fast that before Hallie's screams had dissipated, his eyes were covered by a blood-red color. It's just that the imaginary pain didn't appear, the clown just put a red hood on Hallie's head, a black suit, and Hallie in a male suit stood there, like a talk show actor, except for the red hood.

"Now, you're just like me, haha, hahaha!"

With the clown's crazy laughter, the dark room, which was originally still lit, also fell into darkness at this time. It wasn't until after a period of silence that footsteps were heard again in the darkness, and a pair of white eyes flashed in the darkness, and then the whole room lit up, Batman, he rushed here, looking at the scene where the clown had been, and the chair where Harley had sit.

"Did you find anything, Master Bruce, have any innocents died?" In the headphones, the voice of the old butler Alfred sounded, with a sense of exhaustion.

"No, Alfred, this time it's nothing."

"Well, that sounds like good news, but your tone isn't that lighthearted."

"Yes, because that means the Joker has warmed up and he's going to get started!"

Picking up a ghost card left by the Joker on the ground, Batman also understands the seriousness of the matter, and the cosmic memories triggered by the old 52 Wally are all-round, but they vary from person to person. If you get a memory of the old universe that was active before, it also means that the Joker, the opponent who has been entangled with him countless times in the universe reboot, has also gained a memory, only this time, the Joker will be more difficult to deal with.

Because every entanglement between him and the Joker before would be deleted and repracticed with the restart of the universe, but this time, he and the Joker were archived. He didn't dare to think about how far a clown could do it with an archive, learning from the experience of various previous defeats, not to mention, in the city of Gotham, there was more than one clown in the archive, Batman looked up and looked at the poster hanging on the wall.

It's a list of every enemy you've ever defeated, Bane, Scarecrow, Penguin, Two-Face, Black Mask... Some of them are dead, some are still alive, but they all have one thing in common, and that is that the pictures of each of them are painted with red smiling faces. With his eyes narrowed slightly, Batman took the ghost card left by the Joker, and then glanced at the chair where Harley Quinn once sit.

After pulling out a scanner from the universal belt around his waist and collecting the information on the chair, he left the place where the clown was active, because there was no value in continuing to explore.

The night passed, and here in Naxinnuo City, after the regional library gave him an inaccurate warning information, Ke Wen also went to investigate. It's just that, just like the vague information given by the regional library, Kewen didn't find any clues in the area that was warned, and kept repeating the clips in this area within 24 hours, and what he got was nothing more than vehicles entering and leaving the city, as well as passers-by smoking and eating at the gate, or staff doing errands, and there was nothing strange about it.

Whether the fruitless exploration of Cowen was woken up by a phone call, or a call from Consortium B in New York, a comic company in which he is the largest shareholder.

"Hello, this is Kewen." With a tone of not waking up, Ke Wen lay on the recliner and said weakly.

"Still sleeping, the production team of Netflix here has gone to Naxinnuo City, and is ready to talk to you about turning Kamen Rider into a live-action TV, shouldn't you, the big boss, come forward?"

"Huh?!"

After hearing the news told to him by the old man over there in New York, Ke Wen instantly lost his sleepiness, and sat up directly from the recliner, and his voice also raised an octave. I've been thinking about it for so long, and I can finally fulfill my dream in the DC Universe! Although it was said that in the universe I lived in before, I also watched Kamen Rider live-action TV, and the special effects and plot were also in place, but for Kewen, there was still resentment.

Because as an old fan of knights, he can clearly feel that many times later, the plot is for the service of toys, of course, this is not to say that people are doing something wrong. After all, filming Kamen Rider is not just a matter of greedy Kamen Rider's super popularity, which drives the sales of various belts, models, transformation props and other toys, and invests in shooting.

But Ke Wen also found that the Kamen Rider series he watched was a little off the rails, and the plot of the knight began to fade away, and it was really just to sell toys, such as Kamen Rider Ghost. In his previous life, he didn't have a choice, he was just a knight fan, and he could only spit out in forums and group chats, but in this life, he is a rich boy and brother, and he also knows Batman and Lex, the two richest people in the DC world.

And it's a real Kamen Rider.,Popularity is there.,The material is there.,The funds are in place.,I don't believe that this time the knight live TV can still be sanctioned by the toy periphery! As soon as I thought of a Kamen Rider TV live-action series with a sense of realism, full of special effects, and full of plots, I was born from under my hands, and Ke Wen was so excited that he wanted to sing a song on the spot.

Fortunately, he resisted this urge, otherwise he would have been glued to the wall by Zatana, who had an explosion of anger when he got up, washed up as quickly as possible, combed his hair into an adult, and put on a handsome suit. After dressing himself up, he stepped on the knight's motorcycle that he hadn't used for a long time, and galloped away according to the address on his mobile phone.

And the old man who informed Ke Wen of the good news here in New York didn't expect Ke Wen to be so efficient, looking at the message that had been sent, he also muttered there: "Is he so excited, did I forget to tell him that he is now the second-in-command?" Wait, it doesn't seem to be the second-in-command, forget it, let him find out for himself. As he spoke, he put his phone aside and drew his comics with peace of mind.

At the same time, Ke Wen, who started from his own office and dressed himself beautifully, also sat in the conference room, watching Lena, a professional beauty, talking about cooperation with Kamen Rider W, who was preparing to shoot live TV, and the Netflix production team was there, looking confused. All this happened too suddenly, I thought I should have come over to talk to others about cooperation, but when I arrived at the location, I was led to the conference room and watched Lena appear here.

[What's going on, this doesn't seem to be the same as I imagined, shouldn't I be the protagonist? ใ€‘

Although there were a lot of question marks in his eyes at this time, Kewen still knew that he couldn't interject at this time, so he could only sit there and watch Lena have the first round of negotiations with others, and then he got over at halftime. And Lena, who was looking at the plan book, also saw the Vita lemon tea handed over in front of her, and when she turned her head, she saw Kewen's expression full of big question marks.

"Yo, you're dressed very handsomely, what is this, flattering?"

"How can it, just now I saw that you were talking to these people for so long a day, aren't you afraid that you will be tired, come on, drink."

glanced at Ke Wen, then took the vita lemon tea he handed over, and took a sip into his throat, well, it was like flying. After drinking the Vita lemon tea in his hand in one go, he looked at Ke Wen and said with a smile: "Say, just ask whatever you want, sister, I'm in a good mood now." โ€

"How did you come to talk to them here? Leave your company's affairs alone? โ€

"Well, don't you know yet?" Lena looked at Kewen's puzzled little eyes and asked rhetorically.

"Know what?"

"Didn't your consortium B comics company back to the Wayne Group at the beginning, and then I asked my brother to do me a favor and say hello to Batman, well, he also injected capital, and then I was the executor, that is, now I am the major shareholder of your comic company, and you are the third master. So, this is also my company's business, and I will definitely have to meet when it comes to cooperation. โ€

Ke Wen: โˆ‘ (O_O; )ใ€‚

Looking at Lena's indifferent face, Ke Wen felt that his brain stopped thinking, and his mind only echoed Lena's words just now, he was just a three-master, a three-master...

"No, why is my status gone all of a sudden, no, why are Batman and Lex also coming to intervene, I think I didn't mess with them." Ke Wen, who finally came to his senses, also shouted there, two bigwigs who were tens of billions of dollars in a minute, suddenly became his top boss, tsk, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

"Huh? Are you sure? โ€

"Isn't it?"

"Well, I remember that your company has the copyright of the comic adaptation of the same name authorized by Batman, right, but when and how this Batman granted the rights, I don't need to remind you again." In a word, Ke Wen was speechless, because it was indeed his own trick on Batman, taking advantage of the time when the Justice League went out to run the universe collectively, he asked Dick to wear Batman's vest to authorize, which made Batman suffer a dumb loss, but he didn't expect Batman's heart to be so small! "As for my brother, well, you should know better~"

Well, when Lena said this, Kewen also knew that he had no choice but to accept his fate. Looking at Kewen's depressed appearance, Lena also felt enjoyable, after all, it was good to be able to see Kewen eating deflated outside of the battle, and stretched her waist before continuing.

"Besides, with me, your Kamen Rider live-action TV plan won't go bankrupt."

"What do you mean?"

"You don't really think that as long as you give enough money, and then hand it over to a professional team to create a script casting, and then wait for the finished product to come out and give advice, everything will be fine, right?"

"Or else?"

Ke Wen, who can only scatter coins in this regard, also asked rhetorically, in his understanding, there is no reason for professionals to do professional things, and there is no reason why they will hit the streets. And as a girl who was educated by the elite of the family, Lena also told Kewen in her own words that many things are not taken for granted.

"It's just the best thing to do, but I ask you, what would you do if you didn't think it was the Kamen Rider you wanted?"

"Go back and change it, or we'll change it ourselves!" Ke Wen replied directly without thinking about it.

Then, Lena spread her hands and showed an expression that I knew you would say that, "Well, the last one who had this idea with you was Warner, who had the final adaptation rights of the theatrical version of the film, and then, the dark world universe they just created hit the street at the beginning, and they could only rely on the director's cut to sell the film to make a return, but they have a lot of IP in their hands, so they will change it if they hit the street, if you don't have the Wayne Group and the Lex Group to inject capital, how many times can you withstand the street?"

Moreover, even if it is these two groups, it is impossible for my brother and Bruce Wayne to have the final say, and other shareholders will also have opinions, and when the time comes, as soon as the capital is withdrawn, won't you be cold? The scale that needs to be grasped here is very important, and it just so happens that I am proficient in this business, so you should follow me and learn honestly~"

After a big reason, Ke Wenming confessed that he had no right to speak in this matter, and could only hand it over to Lena to deal with, but he was unwilling to do so, and he was also struggling at the end.

"Eh, I'm the spokesperson of Kamen Rider, so give me some benefits."

"Since you say so, you can participate in the selection of this casting, and then you can participate in the writing as a third party. Anyway, the script was also written by you, so ah, my dear Mr. Kamen Rider, there is still a big gap between reality and ideals, and this, you can make money, relying on love. Pulling out a manga of Kamen Rider W from the side, Lena said as well. Then he took out a sheet of Franklin and put it aside, "This, you can also make money, but you have no right to speak, kneeling." โ€

Immediately afterwards, he put Franklin on the comic book, then pointed to his head, and then said: "Only these plus this can make you stand and earn money with love, you, have you realized?" โ€

Looking at Lena's smug little eyes, Ke Wen's whole person fell into a state of bewilderment, and after a long time, he said, "This sister, where are you sacred?" โ€

With her hands crossed over her chest and her head raised slightly, Lena was able to say: "It's just an enthusiastic entrepreneur passing by, remember it for me~"
