"The city has made a big mistake in the last few years, and now we're paying for it!"

On the TV, a presenter in a suit and leather shoes was broadcasting the news, and he chattered:

"We see a group of superhumans in fancy costumes as heroes and saviors, active everywhere, doing what a cop should do, beating criminals into meat sauce in the streets with their bare hands, and scurrying around the rooftops of your or mine in the night."

"Do you have an issue with that? Do you dare to have an opinion? ”

With sarcasm on his face, the host reached out to the large screen behind him, where the chaos of the Heroes Guild yesterday at noon was playing.

"This is what happens if you have an opinion!"

The host said in a fierce tone:

"A lot of people think of those guys in fancy clothes as gods, but now..."

"The gods are fighting, everyone!"

The image on the big screen behind him turned, and the image of Thunderbolt and Rooney fighting in the Hero Society cafeteria was shown on the TV.

The dancing sparks and roaring punches seem to have the feel of a popcorn movie, but not to be ignored are the chaotic innocents trying to escape from the danger zone.

The fear that glittered on their faces was amplified, and the host's voiceover sounded at the right time:

"Angry gods have their own contradictions, they are high above, and when they start fighting, how should we ordinary people deal with ourselves?"

"Oh, maybe some viewers who love superheroes will say that it's just an accident, heroes are human beings, and heroes have the right to vent their emotions."

"Well, I'll admit, it does look like two violent people settling a personal conflict."

The host said in a playful tone:

"But that wasn't what happened last night..."

The picture behind him turned again, and the bloodshed that had taken place on Fifth Avenue yesterday evening had been recorded almost in a way that was fully videotaped, as if it had been recorded with a cell phone.

Robben, the voodoo wizard, began to rush out of the coffee shop and break the glass from the coffee shop, rush to the side of the road to wreak havoc, and then completely lose control, and start smashing the cars parked on the side of the road, chasing passers-by in a cruel way.

This bloody picture was not cut, and it was reported in the news in such a grand manner.

Obviously, this TV station intends to use this incident as a big gimmick and fight a turnaround battle for the press industry.

In order to compete with the current "Planet Daily", which is rapidly expanding its influence.

"Seeing this picture, you may ask, what's wrong with that person? Oh my God, what the hell is he doing? When such a terrible thing happened, didn't there be a hero to help? ”

The host whispered:

"Of course, there won't be any heroes running to help, because those who are qualified to go crazy are members of the Hero Association."

Robben's message was posted on the television, and the host paused, as if waiting for the surprised time of the audience in front of the television to end.

"Smack"

The TV was turned off the next moment.

At the headquarters of the New York Hero Society, Merlin dropped the remote control in his hand on the table, and he looked back at the gloomy Luke behind him. Cage, he said:

"How does it feel to be splashed with dirty water?"

"It's annoying, it's annoying."

Staring at the TV that had been turned off, the Divine Man said:

"I can't wait to rush into the TV and beat up that clever bastard... He's just distorting the facts. ”

"This is normal, that TV station is famous for reporting on lace trails and chasing after the wind."

Merlin didn't have any special expression on his face, and he said:

"The unscrupulous media are always keen to catch any eye-catching flashpoint, but they are not interested in the real facts..."

"That's right, the Hero Association stepped in to prevent the tragedy in the first place, and no one died in Robben's crazy attack, the scene just looked miserable."

"The Hero Association also made amends as soon as possible, and worked hard to win the forgiveness of the injured... Several of Ash's media companies are also actively working on this matter. ”

Merlin turned his head to look at Cage, and he said:

"But the problem is, it's already happened, Cage, and we can't act like it didn't happen."

"What's more, what they said is right, these two things are indeed the mistakes of the Hero Association."

"These two incidents will inevitably trigger another round of discussion about superheroes among the people, and people who are not willing to be lonely will definitely jump out and accuse you, trying to arouse dissatisfaction and anger in the hearts of the people..."

"What I'm really concerned about is, how are you going to deal with the next turmoil?"

The Divine Power Man was silent for a moment, and the big bald head with flat glasses whispered:

"Now that all heroes are ordered to stay at home, we will conduct a mental level test on all heroes as quickly as possible."

"We're going to deal with the bad effects of these two events, and we've turned to the Wizarding Guild for help crafting magical items that can resist the erosion of the mind."

"Until those items are in place, the Hero Guild will reduce the number of actions."

"Hmm."

Merlin nodded, and he said:

"These methods are good, but it is not advisable to be a passive defensive strategy, a villain has set his sights on you, and I don't think it is your style to just endure provocations."

"The heroes of the Deadgame Gang are still operating normally."

Cage suddenly said:

"Miss Ash has added a portable recorder to everyone under her command, and all the A-rank heroes of the entire association are on standby, and if anything unusual happens, we will rush to the scene immediately."

"As long as that manipulative bastard dares to show his face again, we won't give him a chance to escape!"

"Fishing..."

Merlin pursed his lips and said:

"Well, that's a good plan."

He got up from the couch and said to Cage:

"The official will cooperate with your actions, and in addition, those who were out of control who I brought back last night, hurry up and compare what they were in contact with before they lost control."

"Find that common ground!"

Merlin reached out and patted the Divine Man on the shoulder, and he said:

"The next period of time will be difficult, and there will be a steady stream of people accusing you and provoking you with all kinds of reasons."

"But if you get through it, the Hero Guild will have a closer connection with the people, and those who support you will trust you more."

"This is a crisis, Cage, the biggest crisis of the Hero Association since its inception."

"Be careful, and contact me as soon as something goes wrong."

————————————

"The appearance of superheroes is a mistake! This has been proven by the fact that their ability to be controlled well is a threat to anyone, to our society! ”

"They are undoubtedly a time bomb rooted in society that may explode in the next moment, blowing them up along with all the innocents around them."

In a tone mixed with worry and disgust, the reporter on the television warned the audience in front of the television:

"Watch out for the superheroes around you! Don't let them fool you! ”

At the end of the news program, the oily guy also said meaningfully:

"Perhaps, it's time for us to start working on this mistake that we planted ourselves."

"Smack"

In an apartment in Queens, the clown turned off the TV in a hurry.

He played with the cane in his hand and said to the Winter Soldier, who was standing by the window with a blank robotic face:

"That host is really good at talking, isn't he?"

"Look at what he said, it just speaks to my heart!"

The creature who had painted his face all over the wheel got up from his chair, and he walked about the house with his cane like a real clown, and he babbled to himself like a hysterical neurosis:

"Superheroes! Ha, a bunch of freaks with pillowcases walking around Mom and Dad's basement! ”

"The childish ideas they insist on, and what they do, is simply laughable, saying that they have to stand up and stop the wrong things..."

"But what is right, what is wrong, what is beautiful, what is ugly, these concepts are not all defined by themselves?"

The clown looked at the mirror in the corner, he looked at himself in the mirror, he seemed to sense that the makeup was not very good today, so he took the blush out of his pocket and tucked the cane under his arm.

While touching up his makeup, he said:

"I always feel that this society is too domineering, always forcibly harmonizing the beauty in my heart, and forcibly suppressing those who have opinions, as if the only beautiful things in this world are those they define..."

"Shit!"

The Joker screamed:

"Isn't it bad to have a conflict caused by opposites? Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to scream and revel? Tearing off the disguise, laughing to the fullest, and making fun as much as you want, doesn't it make people shudder? ”

The Winter Soldier stood there with a blank face, looking at the Joker with no emotion in his eyes and no comment on the Joker's twisted views.

But a few minutes later, when the clown was quiet, he stepped forward and placed a small black box in front of the clown's eyes.

The next moment, the voice of Lady Hydra sounded in the black box.

"You promised us... No innocent will be harmed. ”

"I didn't!"

The clown innocently said:

"Did any innocent people die? Didn't you? ”

"The heroes arrived in time, and even last night, no one died. And it was so quiet last night, 27 people..."

"I talked to 27 heroes, but only one did what he wanted to do."

"Where did the remaining 26 go? This city should have been set on fire last night... But it's so quiet, hey, that's why I hate New York, really! ”

The clown pursed his lips and said:

"This city is lifeless, a pool of stagnant water, unlike my hometown of Gotham, where a hint of gore attracts countless sharks..."

"Enough!"

Madame's disgusted voice sounded from the little black box, and he didn't want to listen to the clown's mad words anymore, and he said:

"I'll warn you one last time, Arthur, if you can't control your brain, I'll cut it off for you... I don't have to be you to do this. ”

"Your little fight isn't even a warm-up for Merlin!"

"It didn't take him 10 minutes to settle something you've wasted days planning... This proves that either way, you don't care at all. Or, you don't. ”

"Hah!"

The clown pursed his lips and said:

"You mean I failed? Not really. ”

Turning his head to look out of the sun-drenched window, he looked at the city that seemed to be unchanged, and he said:

"Why do I see that in this city where people's hearts are fluctuating, a seed of distrust has been planted."

"Of course, it's just a seed, don't be too harsh on it, it still needs time to ferment and grow, don't worry, my big man, I've already arranged it, this is just the beginning."

"You have to be patient..."

The clown flicked his sleeve from his wrist and looked at the damn, pink children's watch he was wearing on his wrist, and he said to Mrs. Hydra:

"It's time, big shot, I'm going out on an errand."

"Then it's time to leave New York..."

"I don't want to be caught and beaten up, and the game shouldn't end at the beginning."

He stood up, fastened a tall hat from a magician's head, waved his hand at the little black box, and said:

"In order not to let you underestimate me, I decided to show my hand a little and wait quietly for the result."

"Don't involve innocents anymore!"

Madame's deep voice rang out behind the clown.

The Silent Winter Soldier reached out as well, and the sharp black fighting knife was pressed against the Joker's neck, and with a single slash, the chaotic thug would be killed instantly.

Behind the clown's neck, there's a little red thing that's heating up, and all it takes is a command...

Yes, bam!

"Hmm!"

He raised his hands comically, and he said with some anger:

"Okay, okay!"

"You guys who can't afford to play, I listen to you, can't you?"

"I promise, okay? I promise! ”

A few minutes later, the clown, dressed in a festive clown costume, wearing a wig, holding a cane, and holding a balloon, squeezed into a taxi, and said to the taxi driver:

"I'm sorry, sir, I took a job to go to a school to perform for the kids, but I don't know how to get there."

"Oh, by the way, it's said to be a school that only accepts mutant children."

"Oh, you're talking about Xavier's Talented Junior Academy."

Du Pengde, who was driving, rubbed his eyes.

He'd been crazy with Geeta all night last night, and now he's a little out of energy, and the clown in the back seat is nodding his head like a chicken pecking rice, and an exaggerated smile appears on his red-nosed face.

He said:

"Good Samaritan, where can you send me?"

"Thank you, the kids are still waiting for my performance."
