"Hey, Bruce Wayne, can you hear me?"

Then, the sound of a microphone tapping came from the speaker.

Puff !!

Batman turns his gaze to the loudspeaker, which is also the direction of the surveillance camera.

Soon, a different voice came from inside: "Boss, he should have heard it, and he was watching us." ”

"Oh, I see." The first voice cleared his throat and continued, "Bruce Wayne, the next passage is important. ”

"Please listen carefully."

As soon as Batman heard it, he knew that it was Graves' voice, and he couldn't help but wonder a little in his heart, he was here, where was the Joker?

But Bruce didn't ask, because he wanted to know what Graves wanted to do with all the effort he had to make.

"Hello, Baxman! You should be able to hear me. ”

"Today, I want to play a game."

"I don't know if you, as the guardian of Gotham, have ever tried to be guarded."

"The four screens in front of you represent one of your friends or foes."

"Their choices will determine your next path."

"To be guarded or to die, the choice is in their hands."

"Now... Game on! ”

As the voice fell, the speakers fell completely silent, and the four screens around Bruce lit up one after another.

First of all, in the first screen, the figure of Harvey Dent appears, who is lying in a square space, like a public shower.

On his left and right hands was a pool full of water, but the water was a little muddy, so Bruce couldn't tell if it was water or something else for a while.

On the second screen, an unconscious Rachel is strapped to a hospital bed in a surgical gown, with a tray full of surgical equipment on a bedside table.

On the third screen, in the clean and bright room, a clown covered in bandages is curiously observing a huge metal ball.

He was also the only one of the three who was awake and could move freely.

And on the entire wall behind this madman, there is a code to open the reactor written in blinding red paint.

Seeing the first two screens, Batman remained calm, because judging from the two of them's chests that were still slightly undulating, it could be judged that they were still alive.

Since he is alive, there is hope for rescue.

But putting the most dangerous people and the most dangerous things together, and also writing the opening code on the wall, is absolutely unacceptable to him.

He didn't have time to think about why the clown, who was an accomplice, was also imprisoned.

Because once the reactor explodes, the whole of Gotham will be razed to the ground.

So Bruce immediately yelled at the overhead camera: "Maxime Graves, do you know what the consequences will be if you do this?" ”

He knew the scoundrel could see it.

But there was no sound from the speaker for a long time, but the fourth screen lit up.

This time it was Lucius, dressed in his favorite silver-gray suit, hanging himself from the ceiling.

When he saw this picture, Bruce's eyes under the mask instantly turned red, as if they could drip blood, and his expression became painful and distorted.

"Damn Soul, I'm going to kill you!!!"

He immediately rushed to the closed gate, hammering the alloy on it frantically, but to no avail of it except for a loud, dull thud.

But immediately, the fourth screen was turned off, and a conversation between Lu Wu and Roman came out of the loudspeaker.

"Didn't you say he's still alive?"

"Oops... Boss, stop fighting, can you blame me, you threw the rope in, and said that you wanted him to give him a relief. ”

"If you dare to talk back, won't you pick up the rope? Besides, who knew he would actually commit suicide. ”

Bruce, who was slumped on the ground with his back against the gate, heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but roar: "Two villains, devil! Did you know that he was a Christian? ”

As a result, I heard Lu Wu ask on the loudspeaker, "What happened to the Christians?" ”

Roman seemed to be taking care of Batman's emotions, deliberately lowering his voice and saying, "Christians can't kill themselves, suicide will go to hell." ”

Lu Wu exploded when he heard it: "What? To hell? ”

"Lao Tzu, I haven't gone to hell yet, why should he go first!"

"No, I don't care, you have to find a way to save him for me, you can't let him go to hell before me."

"Uh......" Roman didn't know what to say about his boss for a while.

Bruce, who didn't want to listen to the conversation between the two anymore, was already angry to the extreme, and his tired brain was spinning rapidly, looking for a way to break the game.

It was then that the first screen caught his eye, and Harvey finally woke up.

The prosecutor, who was lying on the ground, like a drowning man, took a sharp breath, and then, as if frightened, suddenly sat up.

Then he touched his dizzy head and muttered, "Where am I?" ”

But before he could figure out the situation, he couldn't help but start coughing.

It turned out that the whole room was filled with an indescribable pungent smell, which was a very choking smell, which made people can't help but squint their eyes and cover their mouth and nose.

This strong smell made Harvey completely wake up from his groggy state.

At this moment, not far in front of him, outside the camera that Batman could not see, there was a radio that began to play the pre-recorded audio.

"Harvey Dent, the Knight of Light of Gotham City, the star of the future."

"Let's play a game."

"You once vowed to save the people of Gotham, but you broke your promise."

"Now, you have a chance again, whether to save your lover or save your friend."

"To your left and right, are two pools filled with strong acid, and at the bottom of each are two corrosion-resistant keys."

"For a small price, you can save someone, Rachel or Batman."

"Of course, you can do nothing."

"See that clock on the wall, when the clock goes to zero, the door will open automatically, and you can go home safely."

"I hope you can move faster to prevent others from making choices faster than you."

Harvey, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, subconsciously looked up at the tiled wall, and sure enough, there was a digital clock hanging on it.

According to the numbers, there are 29 minutes and 42 seconds left before the time returns to zero.

Harvey, who probably understood his situation, immediately got up from the ground and carefully looked around, until he confirmed that he couldn't get out, and then began to think about what he had just said on the radio.

As for whether those words were true or false, he didn't take the time to dwell on them, and he didn't dare to gamble.

One can only believe that it is true.

Now between two pools of strong acid with the names of Batman and Rachel written on them, there is something that resembles a lectern with two keyholes of the same size on the countertop.

There are also two people's names written under the keyhole to prevent him from choosing the wrong one.

In other words, if you get two keys at the same time, you can save two people.

It's just that this strong acidity......

Harvey couldn't help but turn his gaze to the pool of muddy water at his feet.

Batman couldn't hear Harvey's voice, and could only guess what he was doing through the screen.

But I only saw Harvey, standing still and motionless, as if he was thinking about some century problem, thinking for a long time.

At this point, there are 21 minutes left before time returns to zero.
