Chapter 375: The Final Judgment (1)
"What the hell do you want to do?"
In the Arkham Asylum, Bruce Wayne's angry low questioning voice sounded, and there was a sense of hatred in his voice: "You think you're a superhero?" ”
"Isn't it? A lot of people call me that, Knight of Judgment, a pretty good title. ”
Lees shrugged his shoulders and casually took a tablet from outside the cage fence, swiping absentmindedly.
Handed over the plate was Bumblebee's thick mechanical arm, which twisted the thumb-thick cage steel bar.
In addition to Bumblebee, the clown in the prison opposite is also watching the show with a strange smile, and many vicious bandits are also in a frenzy because of Bruce Wayne's arrival, wantonly provoking and roaring.
"When a man punishes a thug for a thug, he can never be called a hero, but only a thug who is more vicious than a thug."
Bruce Wayne's voice began to be faintly cold: "And now you are a madman, a thug. ”
His words caused wanton laughter from many prisoners in Arkham, and a group of jigsaw fans on the jigsaw live broadcast platform also fried the pot, refuted, spewed dirty, and shouted...... All kinds of barrages emerge one after another.
"I understand what you mean, it's nothing more than the dragon slayer who eventually becomes an evil dragon."
Li Si ignored the audience in the live broadcast room, just put down the tablet and asked calmly: "So, this is the reason why you don't dare to kill?" ”
Asking rhetorically, Li Si continued to elaborate calmly: "There is no difference between you and the clown in essence, you don't believe in the goodness of everyone, not even yourself, the difference is that the clown wants to tear the veil of human hypocrisy, and you, want to use power and deterrence to prevent others from releasing the beast inside." ”
"Human nature is inherently evil, isn't this the philosophy of your hometown?"
Bruce Wayne paused and was silent for a moment.
Clearly, Lees was right.
"But in order to achieve all this, there will always be someone who will be the executor, sink into the abyss, and look at the light in hell, and the laws of the government exist for this purpose."
Li Si smiled noncommittally and said, "You have your own determination to go to hell, but you don't believe in your determination, you break the law that should be used as a constraint to punish evil with atrocities, but you are not evil enough.
You are afraid that you will also become a thug, you dare not kill people, send all the criminals to prison, but it makes no sense, the credibility of the Gotham city government is getting lower and lower because of you, and the criminals can easily escape again, vent their frustration with more crazy destruction, and let more people be harmed, forming a deadly cycle. ”
Lees's calm exposition was like a sharp knife that struck Bruce Wayne's heart.
He actually knew what the problem was.
Gotham's original order was very erosive, so it was not a problem for him to incarnate Batman to fight crime at the beginning, but this was the most direct and effective way.
But he is a man who is suspicious of anyone, including himself, and he fears that if he kills, he will become a thug who is no different from the clown and the others.
This creates an endless loop.
His presence further highlights the incompetence of the Gotham city government, and the existence of the law has become unbinding, and the only thing the Gotham criminals fear most is Batman.
But this Batman ...... It doesn't kill.
All criminals now understand that no matter how evil they do, they will not die, what is there to be afraid of?
Going to prison is as simple as eating and drinking for them, escaping, robbing prisons, bribing officials, coming out and enjoying themselves when they are bored, and by the way, they take pleasure in provoking Batman, Gotham is becoming more and more chaotic, more and more people are hurt, and the family is ruined and the dead become the new outlaws.
At this time, it is impossible for him to get out, Batman is the only fear of criminals, and it has become the only sustenance for many people, and he may be able to barely maintain the peace of Gotham when he still exists, but once he leaves, Gotham, which loses this only deterrent, will become a complete capital of crime.
And even if he has been acting as Batman, it is nothing more than a delay and continuous deterioration of this situation, and with the passage of time, or if he has some accidents, this day will come sooner or later.
"Alright, the preface to the trial is over."
After the atmosphere was silent for a moment, Li Si suddenly showed a smile and broke the silence and said: "Let's talk about something lighter, I opened a poll before, I think you should also know, would you like to see the final result?" ”
"Look."
Bruce Wayne nodded silently, he also heard some clues from the words of the 'jigsaw', and even a faint trace of anticipation rose in his heart.
Why did jigsaw mention this? Maybe he has a better solution?
The thought arose and made Bruce Wayne himself stunned for a moment - he suddenly understood why those who had been tortured by the jigsaw trial would be willing and even grateful to Dade instead.
"This result...... I regret it a little. ”
Lees opened the previously open voting website on the tablet, and then handed it to Bruce Wayne with regret.
"It's ......"
Seeing the voting results on the website, Bruce Wayne was stunned again, and then a little relief and joy that could not be suppressed surfaced.
[Voting results: Jigsaw (5876) vs Batman (14680)]
After seeing the momentum of the protest teams before, he didn't have much hope, but he didn't expect that he would still win, and the number of votes was far more than double that of the jigsaw.
It's what it's like to be recognized.
He is happy not to win the jigsaw, but that his efforts over the years have not been fruitless, and there are so many people silently supporting him.
Although he was not shocked to see the huge procession marching for the jigsaw before, it was impossible to say that there was no trace of loss.
After all, he had guarded Gotham for many years, and the jigsaw had been around for a few months at most, and no one had ever stood up for him with such fanfare, only he walked alone in the night.
Now this result at least proves that his efforts are seen and recognized by others.
"Are you happy?"
Li Si suddenly smiled sarcastically and said, "Yes, you should indeed be happy that your vote has successfully defeated me." ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
Hearing this, Bruce Wayne regained his composure again, and frowned as he handed the tablet back.
Although I don't know much about jigsaws, it is at least certain that jigsaws are obviously not people who are angry because they lost this vote, and this vote was initiated by jigsaws, so it should be meaningful.
