Chapter 444: Blizzard's First Chapter (Part II)
Instead of walking over, Batman threw a batrang at the pile, and the expected explosion didn't happen, they just scattered on the ground with a "whoosh".
The round doll rolled around on the ground a few times and rolled down to the wall, and the bat lollipop wrapped in confetti fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the wrapping paper glittered in the light.
Even Batman is a little incomprehensible to this kind of scene, but Batman, who has already fought the Joker a few times, knows that the best defense against this madman is not to think too much.
Although he understood the reason, it was difficult to ask Batman not to think about it, and in the end, he walked up and picked up a doll and looked at it.
There was no bomb hidden in there, just a very ordinary stuffed animal, a round bat body, plus two Q version of bat wings, the other two toys were Batman-shaped dolls, one was a normal skin version of Batman, and the other was a laughing Batman.
After looking at the three dolls, Batman picked up a few more lollipops, and he found that the wrapping paper on one of the lollipops had been ripped off, and it seemed to have been licked a few times, but he didn't know why he didn't finish it, so he was thrown here.
After examining all of these things, Batman didn't get any useful clues, just a new idea of how crazy the Joker was.
Checked again, the chair, Batman sat on it, at this angle, he was able to see all the surveillance screens, Batman understood that before, the Joker was sitting here like this, and then took the phone to tell the agents their location.
Batman looked at the screen by screen, and he found that the screens on the three walls corresponded to the three main buildings of the manor, and the screen in front of them corresponded to the building in the center of the manor, that is, the building with the banquet hall.
Just as Batman was browsing this part of the surveillance screen, suddenly, his gaze caught the image from the front screen.
This screen corresponds to the monitoring of the banquet hall, because the banquet hall is located on the first floor, and the overhead is not the ceiling, but the patio, so the monitoring is not erected on the ceiling on the first floor, but on a higher place.
At this time, a rope can be seen hanging from the center of the patio of the banquet hall, and two people are tied back to back at the end of the rope.
Batman's eyes narrowed, he moved his chair forward, closer to the screen, and then he noticed that the two people who were being hoisted were Clark and Lex.
Batman's fingers stiffened, because the scene was really unexpected.
To be honest, Lex was captured by the Joker, Batman is not surprised, although Lex is smart, but after all, he is young and his physical fitness is also very weak, even worse than ordinary people, the defects of this item are too big, resulting in wisdom can not fully play a role.
Batman knows that the madman with clown makeup is not as simple as it seems, not to mention that he has an information advantage, and it is very likely that he can catch the lone Lex, but Clark ......
Batman held his chin with his fingers, he squinted his eyes and saw a green stone tied to Clark's chest in the center of the screen, Clark's expression was very painful, he seemed to be extremely weak, his face was pale, his chest was rising and falling, and it was difficult to even breathe.
The green stone glowed brightly, making Batman have bad associations, the radiation source, Clarke's previous weakness, his current pain......
It seems that the so-called kryptonite will make ordinary people suffer from cancer, and it will also make people like Clarke, who have special abilities, feel weak and miserable.
Soon, Batman's speculation is infinitely closer to the truth, and just when he wants to think more deeply about the principle of kryptonite, the situation in the picture changes.
A figure enters the frame, wearing a long suit, green hair, and clown makeup on his face.
What makes Batman feel strange is that he did not limp or stagger, but walked to the center of the banquet hall like a drama actor, taking the slightly funny stride of a drama performance.
At this time, on the ground in the center of the banquet hall was a strangely shaped gift box, which looked like it was made of all kinds of garbage, the box was made of cardboard on two sides, and the other two sides were plastic, and the ribbon wrapped in it was also crumpled and torn from nowhere.
However, the clown walked very solemnly to the gift box, ripped the bow of the ribbon on the top of the box, and when he opened it, a bomb was revealed inside.
The clown lit the fuse, then quickly ran to the corner and crouched down, covering his ears, and with a "boom", a violent explosion sounded.
Batman tensed for a moment, but when the smoke cleared, he realized that the bomb wrapped in the gift box had been placed in a very low place, far from where Clark and Lex had been hoisted, and the explosion had not hurt them.
The explosion didn't blow anything up, nothing shrapnel flew out, only a loud noise and billowing smoke, so there was only one consequence, and all the guest room doors on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors were opened.
Many people probed their brains by the door, as if they were wondering what was going on here, and soon those who looked at the exit of the corridor found that two people were hanging in the middle of the patio.
The vast majority of people were a little hesitant, they stood at the door, and did not go out easily, because they did not know if there would be another explosion.
At this moment, they heard an impassioned voice in the center of the banquet hall:
"Ladies and gentlemen! Tonight is a terrible blizzard night! We are gathered here, although the blizzard is cold, but our hearts are tightly connected......"
"Hello everyone! I'm a comedian from Gotham! ”
As soon as the figure in the middle said this, everyone rushed to the room without looking back, and the sound of "bangbang" closing the door sounded one after another, and the clown's words were directly held back.
He flipped his hand and said, "Okay, I know you tasteless cowards, go back to your room, go ......"
"You'll never understand what a great comedian Jack is! But it doesn't matter, I always have one last viewer......"
Batman in the monitoring room saw that the Joker slowly turned his head, and then looked at him behind the screen.
At that moment, like those celebrities, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, looked down at the handkerchief in his hand, threw it aside in disgust, and then took out a bat lollipop from his pocket.
He opened the wrapper, and Kacha Kacha crushed the candy, then swallowed it, and let out a breathing sound came out of his mouth, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he shook his finger, ran quickly out of the frame, took a phone, and put it on the ground.
He is indeed very much like a clown who is acting in a mime now, Batman thinks, using those exaggerated body movements and expressions to guide people's eyes, but unfortunately, as he said, the current audience is only Batman.
After placing the phone on the floor, the clown picked up the receiver and dialed, and suddenly, a shrill phone rang from every room.
Obviously, the phone with a special shape was removed from the monitoring room, and as soon as Batman turned his head, he saw the dismantled messy telephone console at hand.
"Listen, if you don't want to be an audience, then come and be an actor, cowards!"
"Now, there's a bomb hanging from the roof above the patio, it's not very powerful, but it's just enough to blow a person's head to pieces."
"As you can see, there are now two ropes, each hanging two people, and they are the main actors in this scene, and you are the supporting characters......"
"Next, I'm going to tell you the backstories of these two people, and after listening to the stories, you can use the service package on your room phone to vote!"
"Press the yellow 'Call Service' and you're voting for Lux-Luthor, and the blue 'Do Not Disturb' means you're voting for Clark Kent!"
"Every time a guy gets a vote, I pull his rope a little higher and the first person to touch the bomb – BOOM!
! ”
After finishing speaking, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, he threw the telephone receiver on the ground, then stood up and bent down, put his head close to the receiver, and said:
"Oh, I forgot! This is a comedy, not a wireless tea party, so please take your phone and sit down at the table, and preferably pour yourself a glass of wine......"
"Of course, I know what you're thinking, you don't want to be an audience honestly, and you don't think there is a performance fee for cooperating with my performance, you just want to cover your head with a quilt and fall asleep......"
"But I'm not going to let you do that!"
The clown fell to the ground, propped up the ground with his forearms, opened his mouth wide into the phone on the ground, and said word by word with an extremely exaggerated mouth: I won't!
Let you guys!
! Do it!
!
”
He put his hand behind his ear, put his ear close to the phone's receiver, and said, "Let me listen, who's laughing?" Do you think my threats are no deterrent?! ”
The clown stood up again, smacked off the screen, and then took a strange button, and he pointed his finger at the phone receiver and said, "Look, what is this?" ”
"Yes, it's a switch, a switch that allows lethal radiation to leak out......"
"Underneath this old manor, there's a huge secret base, and some people may think they've explored it all, but that's actually just a small part of it......"
"Behind that gate, there is a huge extraterrestrial meteorite, and the entire mayor's manor sits on top of this meteorite, and as soon as I press the button, the gate opens, and the deadly radiation leaks out!"
"Anyone who has been exposed to this radiation will develop incurable cancer, and you will be struggling in pain in your hospital bed! Until the cancer consumes your whole body! ”
"And the radiant range is - everyone in this manor!"
In mid-air, Clark looked down and saw that the madman in clown makeup had closed his eyes.
He swirled slowly in the empty banquet hall with his arms outstretched, like a lone dancer, dancing in the snow with the cold wind.
Soon, he stopped, and stood silently in place, his voice low as if he were reciting the opening poem.
"The blizzard will never stop, there is no god here who can save you."
"Now...... Get ready to make your choice. ”
