Chapter Two Thousand and Ninety-Three: The Night of the Knight's Horror (35)

Peter Parker is working on a virus.

That's the worst news, Robin thought.

He was just about to return to the Batcave to see if he could get more research materials, when he ran into Nightwing on the way.

"Are you okay? I'm going to take a trip to the clock tower and ask Barbara to help me see if I can recover the base's surveillance footage. Nightwing said as she sat in the car.

Robin originally wanted to go back to the Bat Cave, but he thought it might be safer to go to Barbara now, so the two got into the car together and went to the clock tower, and coincidentally, Barbara happened to have something to do with them.

"You've got to come and see this." Barbara sat in front of the computer, pointed to the computer screen and said to Robin, "I tried to find out who was distributing the narcotics by investigating the usage records of various internet-connected devices in Gotham City. ”

"I investigated the major medical labs, chemistry labs, and even most of the labs known to Batman, but none of them came to fruition."

"So the other party is unexpectedly clever?"

"No, that's his biggest flaw." Barbara shook her head and said, "This means that the device used by the other party is either not connected to the Internet, or I can't get in." ”

"If it's the former, it's not easy to check." Nightwing said, "These devices usually don't need to be network-capable, do they?" ”

"On the contrary, a device that can stun everyone in Gotham for a split second must have security measures in place, it may not be connected to the Internet, but it will definitely be connected to the security control center through a local area network."

"Like a nuclear bomb with a launch button?"

"It's more like a launch button and a launch center." Barbara turned her body back, looked at the computer screen and said, "Actually, I have long thought that the only person who can cause such a large-scale disaster must be the weather control center in the Wayne Tower, and it stands to reason that only Batman can enter that place, and we can't." ”

"You want to say Batman did it?"

"It's not that he won't do it, but he usually only uses it as a last resort, and it's not Batman's style to make such a big fuss at the beginning." Barbara pushed her glasses and said, "I'd rather someone gain Batman's trust." ”

Robin knew it was time to tell her guess, but Barbara looked at Dick again and said, "I helped you analyze the images of the suspicious vehicles that came in and out of Bruce Haven that night, and I found this." ”

Barbara pressed a button on the keyboard, and a picture appeared on the computer screen, very blurry, supposed to have been taken from a high vantage point, but it was clearly visible that it was two people in the driver's seat of the van.

Robin and Nightwing both leaned over to look, and they recognized the man in the main driver's seat at a glance, the Poison Ivy Girl was dressed so easily.

Nightwing was startled when he saw the co-pilot's face, but Robin sighed as expected and said, "That makes sense." ”

"The source of the poison gas that can anesthetize the entire city of Gotham is also good evidence, and no one can do it except Poison Ivy."

"You don't want to say Peter Parker is a traitor, do you?"

"It's too early to draw such extreme conclusions." Barbara interrupted Robin's remarks and said, "But he must have some purpose of his own, and we'd better keep an eye on him." ”

"Nobody says no." Robin agrees more, in his opinion, when Batman is not there, Gotham is full of dangers, and it is impossible to be too cautious.

Nightwing was still worried, saying, "We shouldn't question any family member's ...... lightly."

"But in a way, it's pretty conclusive." Robin looked sideways at the computer screen and said, "Either he betrayed, or he was unstable, it's better to be cautious." ”

Eventually, Robin convinces everyone, Nightwing grabs his gear and weapons, Robin is fully armed, and the two set off for the Batcave.

The monitoring equipment in the Batcave operates independently, and there is no way to monitor the inside of the Batcave from anywhere else, so their first stop back in the Batcave is the monitoring room, where they must first find out where Peter Parker is to prevent him from being ambushed.

They soon find Peter Parker, but not in the lab, but in Batman's arsenal.

The faces of the two of them immediately became solemn, and Nightwing propped his hands on the table, staring at the screen and saying, "What is he doing there?" ”

Robin reacted immediately, saying, "He wants Batman's armor!" That's the most dangerous weapon in the world, stop him! ”

The two of them grabbed their weapons and rushed to the equipment warehouse, only to find Peter tugging at a cloak from a pair of bat armor.

The two men rushed forward almost immediately with their weapons, but the cloak was still pulled off by Peter, and by his unhurried movements, he knew that he had already spotted them.

After the cloak was torn off, Peter wrapped it around his arm to make it easier for him to move.

Robin and Nightwing were furious at this, and Nightwing roared, "Put it down!" ”

"Sorry, I know I shouldn't have taken it, but I need it!" Peter ran off the wall in a puff of smoke, and turned back to the two of them and shouted, "I'll give you back when I'm done!" ”

But how could the two of them give up? Stealing Batman's gear in front of Batman's avid fans can be called audacious.

This means that the Joker is dead, and if the Joker doesn't die, it won't be Robin's turn to chase the first one.

But Spider-Man is really fast, and his ability to borrow spider silk to move between tall buildings is too good for Gotham, especially Gotham, which is suitable for Arkham Knights, where there are not only tall buildings, but also all kinds of patrol drones.

Peter was quickly evacuated from the scene by a spider silk stuck to a drone, and before Robin and Nightwing could catch their hooks, Peter was already disappearing into the horizon.

Seeing that this was not working, Robin hurriedly called for Barbara's support, and Barbara immediately used satellite positioning to indicate the location of the two of them, and also airdropped a Batmobile, and the two chased after it as fast as they could.

Peter wrapped Batman's cape around his arm, but it wasn't tied with a rope, and when he swung it, the cape fell off his forearm.

Peter had to grab the cloak with one hand and the spider silk with the other, swinging forward, the soft and tough fabric fluttering in the wind, and there was no one in Gotham who didn't know the Dark Knight's cape.

More than ten hours have passed, and the people in Gotham City are also waking up one after another, most of them have no combat ability when they first wake up, they are all staggering and covering their heads with a confused face.

However, there is no shortage of ruthless people in Gotham, and some people have fallen into a state of stress in order to protect themselves and start attacking the people around them, and the police who have just woken up and have not yet figured out the situation have to immediately return to work to suppress the riots.

It's okay that no one bothered them, and the thugs who had just woken up were not stimulated too much, and they were slow to react, and they could clean up with electric shockers and rubber bullets, and at most throw a few more tear gas.

But Peter was screaming through Gotham City, clutching at Batman's cape, and the two Robins behind him were speeding through the streets in a Batmobile.

As we all know, Gotham only has Batman fans and twisted Batman fans, and many people are either excited or bloody when they see the Batman logo, and the Robins stir up in the middle, and the streets are suddenly in chaos.

Standing on the balcony of the Gotham Police Station, Gordon Paper saw the bat cape in the hand of the figure hanging from the drone, and the familiar person sitting in the familiar bat vehicle.

Drip-Drip-Drip-

The communicator on Gordon's waist rang, he picked it up, and after watching the chaos on the street and hearing Batman's voice, Gordon knew that it wasn't Batman's fault, but he still got angry and yelled at Batman.

"Now! Your helpers! Snatching your cloak in Gotham City!!!! ”

Of course, snatching the cloak was Gordon's guess, but the sheriff, who had gone through all the vicissitudes of life, was very accurate in any guess of the Bat family.

How could he not see it? Robin's relationship is very delicate, they appear to live together in harmony, but every move shows that they want to win Batman's approval, and preferably more than others, the most special of all.

Gordon understood the relationship in his own way, he had no siblings, but he had heard his father complain about competing with his brother for parental favor when he was a child.

But it was still too much to add fuel to the fire while a city was in ruins, and Gordon took a deep breath and said in a not-so-good tone, "Hurry up and think of a way, Batman, we don't need any longer nights." ”

Batman was about to say something, and Gordon hung up the phone.

Very good, this sheriff must have always felt that this was his own arrangement, or that he had already planned it.

Now, the situation is beyond expectations, and there is nothing to say, Batman, who walked out of the safe room, looked at Amanda with a slightly inquiring expression, and said in the style that Batman is best at.

"As planned, go to Congress."

Seeing Bruce Wayne's very different look from before, Amanda sighed in her heart, well, the plan is almost achieved, and this former playboy is no longer pretending.

So what are you waiting for, Amanda can't wait to see the military deflated in congressional questioning.

The military arrived earlier than Batman expected, and in fact, not long after Batman left, they arrived.

But the purpose of their initial visit to Gotham was to destroy the evidence, and they also found that the missiles didn't work, but the military equipment in the hands of the scarecrow had to be solved.

Most of Gotham's Black Gloves are unreachable, and the damn penguin man is still opening his mouth, and the military has no choice but to take the risk and go out on their own.

It's not that they don't know how magical this place is, it's just that now, they can't lose both public opinion and Congress.

Because it was a scalpel operation, not many people came, and a commando team stationed in New Jersey had a total of five special combat personnel, four of whom were stunned young men who desperately wanted to climb up, and a lieutenant with more experience in urban warfare, carrying a large amount of explosives and incendiary materials for the destruction of evidence.

It wouldn't be too noticeable to set off another explosion or light a fire before the disaster was over, and they made up their minds to take advantage of Batman's absence to make a quick decision, so they drove across the Gotham Bridge as fast as they could, almost without stopping.

As soon as they entered Gotham, the strange situation of the city stunned everyone, most of them did not wake up, and a small number of people woke up very confused, spinning in place like zombies.

The recruits panicked, but the lieutenant was no longer surprised, urging a few people to quickly locate and start as soon as possible.

They acted quickly and effectively, quickly locating the location of a large number of military equipment.

Then the problem came, when they arrived at their location, they found that there was nothing here, just a clearing as far as the eye could see.
