Chapter 442: Questioning
Early the next morning, news of Batman's misuse of lynching in the Fortress of Solitude spread across the planet, and the witnesses were naturally the prisoners who had escaped from prison led by Luther. They took advantage of their fact that they were not legally criminal, and played up Batman's brutality and his innocence on various TV shows and media reports.
Although the citizens are also very disgusted with these new generation of superhuman heroes in vain, under the wave of public opinion offensive by the media, they actually have some sympathy for these people, and begin to question the legitimacy of the Justice League's imprisonment of those superhuman heroes recognized by the government.
So a conspiracy theory was born, and the reason why the Justice League arrested those new generation of superhuman heroes was not because they preached that these people did not understand principles and respect for life, but because Batman tried to establish a dictatorship that could rule over all superheroes. And those superhumans who were captured by him and put into the fortress of solitude will be brutally brainwashed until they are absolutely obedient to the Justice League.
Although at first the public would not believe such an unreasonable conspiracy theory, the following days were unearthed with a variety of evidence to prove it. In particular, the testimony of those escaped prisoners as guarantees for their lives adds some credibility to this kind of statement.
In the end, even other superheroes in the Justice League began to doubt their Batman, and they initially gave the warden the dirty job to Batman, in fact, they had expected him to be a little unscrupulous, but they didn't expect it to evolve to this point.
As the initiator of this statement, Chen Lu is still investing a lot of money to make this matter more vigorous, and after handing over the media affairs to Tony, he once again incarnates as Blue Beetle Reyes and goes to the base of the Young Titan. With all this in place, it's time to dismantle the behemoth of the Justice League from within.
As Chen Law Firm expected, when they came to Titan Tower, the base of the Young Titans, this group of young heroes was already arguing fiercely over Batman's affairs, mainly Nightwing and Robin, two Batman assistants, arguing with reason, hoping to redeem some support for their respected teacher.
"I said it! Batman would never do such a thing! He is a man who adheres to principles more than anyone else, and he will never do such a deviant thing no matter what! Nightwing Dick shouted at the others as he raised his arms, and judging by the way he was sweating, the argument must have been going on for a long time.
The Lightning Boy shook his head and retorted, "His principle is just not to hurt people's lives, and it's not uncommon to break other people's bones or directly frighten them crazy. I've heard that Gotham also built a special madhouse to house criminals who were driven crazy by him, but isn't that enough proof? ”
Another young Titan Sea boy nodded in agreement: "Well, maybe he is a sadist, and the prisoner he caught may be better than dead." ”
"Don't say that about my father!"
Robin Damian excitedly pressed Hai Shaoxia against the wall, staring at his eyes viciously with a hideous face, and had the intention of fighting if he didn't agree with him.
At this time, Chen Lu came on the scene at the right time, he went up and grabbed Robin's arm that was holding Hai Shaoxia's throat, and said to the angry young man: "Robin, let go of your hands, instead of arguing here, we should go directly and find out what happened." ”
Due to the prestige accumulated when he led the young Titans to capture the superhuman heroes, Robin still obediently let go of the sea young man. But he still asked Chen Lu indignantly: "You said that you want to find out the facts, what should you do?" ”
"We just have to take a trip to the Solitary Fortress." Chen Lu continued with Robin's words, because he knew that in this huge prison, there were also tense changes.
In the monitoring room of the Lonely Island Fortress, the giants of the Justice League except Superman and Green Lantern gather and lock everyone else out of the door to secretly discuss the truth of the incident.
Martian Manhunter looked around and asked Cyborg, "Cyborg, still haven't you contacted Green Lantern?" ”
"No news at all." Cyborg truthfully reported that the news that Hal had been imprisoned by the Green Lantern Corps had not yet reached the ears of the Justice League.
"Forget it, let's talk about the key points this time." Martian turned to Batman with a solemn expression and asked, "Bruce, do you deny or admit the accusations from the outside world?" ”
"Why do you think I'd admit such nonsense?" Batman asked nonchalantly, then he bowed his head slightly and said, "I admit that I have taught restless prisoners some lessons, but I don't think it's a brutal brainwashing education as it is said out there." ”
Wonder Woman asked excitedly, "You think you're just a little lesson!" ”
"Diana, calm down, I think Bruce still knows how to measure." The Flash stepped in to ease the atmosphere first, and then hesitantly asked Batman, "I can still trust you, Bruce." ”
Seeing that the Flash, who had the best relationship with him, was so suspicious, Batman simply tore his face and said: "I know you guys are still doubting whether Superman was killed by me, and to be honest, I can't be sure about this matter myself." But this time it was definitely a false accusation by someone else, someone was trying to drive a wedge between us! ”
With a bang, the door of the monitoring room was suddenly kicked open, and Chen Lu dragged the two prisoners into the monitoring room as if no one was there, followed by the members of the Young Titans.
"Reyes, you can't come in!"
Without waiting for the steel bones to stop him, Chen Lu dragged the two prisoners and rushed to Batman, threw the two poor prisoners in front of him, and asked righteously:
"Batman, I've asked several of the prisoners in the fortress, and all of them have accused you of being too harsh on them, as well as brainwashing propaganda. My companions behind me can testify, what do you have to say? ”
Behind Chen Lu, Nightwing and Robin both lowered their heads in shame. However, they did not know that these prisoners were colluded by Luthor in advance, and the spot check conducted by Chen's law firm was simply planned and misleading.
Before Batman could reply, Chen Lu had already forcibly continued to blame: "I handed over the Fortress of Solitude and the prisoners we have worked so hard to capture to you, not for you to engage in lynching and dictatorship!" Human rights are just as important as lives, and we cannot punish them so unjustly for doing something wrong. ”
Between the words, Chen Lu had changed the atmosphere from suspicion to conviction, and began to criticize Batman's behavior, even though he was actually the one who knew best that it was a fake.
