"I found a lot of information on the computer."
Red Hood tried to remotely control the counterattack weapons he had placed in the room, but there was no response.
"Don't try your counterattack weapons." Then he heard Batman's voice: "I have already dismantled all your little toys."
Jason's hands began to touch his waist.
"do not move."
Batman looked deeply into the void in front of him. He didn't even look at Jason, but the intimidating feeling like a thorn in his back made Jason dare not draw his gun anymore.
Jason backed away slowly. It is a tradition of the bat family that all bats do not like to engage in encounters.
He thought as fast as he could how to escape from Batman.
But why do you want to stare at Batman's face?
Run away quickly. It's obvious that Bruce is well prepared. Jason knows that he can't defeat Batman who has been planning for a long time here.
According to his understanding of Batman, if he appears here, it means that he is fully prepared. As a prey, shouldn't what he should do at this time be to run away with all his strength immediately?
But why?
Jason thought he was really crazy.
"You should know that I am different from those criminals, and I am different from those scum."
Red Hood himself didn't know why he had to explain such a sentence, but if he explained it more specifically, he would reveal all his plans.
It was obvious that there was no way he could tell Batman his plans.
So he immediately shut up after saying this.
Jason's body slowly arched up. He retracted his hand and pinched the cuff. He hid the venom inside his coat, and he could inject the Titan Venom steroid into his body by simply flipping the switch on his cuff. Although the duration and effect are far from Bane due to insufficient dosage, it can at least improve one's combat effectiveness in a short period of time.
He was ready to fight Batman.
He knew that Batman would attack him without saying a word. Batman's attitude towards criminals has always been ruthless. In addition to not killing people, he would do the most horrific things to criminals that anyone could think of.
Of course, most of the time he would not beat the prisoners to vent his emotions, but would directly break their limbs.
He is always as ruthless as a scalpel and completes his goals as accurately as he completes his work, unlike himself.
But to Jason's surprise, Batman didn't pounce as he had expected.
"I know you're not a criminal. So. Let me guess what you'd do."
Batman finally looked at him.
"You teamed up with Bane. But you never considered actually working with this criminal, even though your goal with him was to defeat me and Superman. So you betrayed him without hesitation. No, or from You've never been with him in the first place. You're still as angry as ever."
Batman got it right.
Jason thought.
He felt himself trembling slightly.
past.
The information revealed in the other person's words made his whole body tremble.
"You originally planned to find an opportunity to murder him, but Bane's plan to deal with Superman and Batman made you change your mind. You suddenly discovered that this plan could attract countless villains to gather together, and you might be able to commit the most heinous crimes among them. All the people were killed.”
He heard Batman say:
"So, you revised your plan again. You cooperated with Bane and successfully attracted a large number of villains. Then before everything started, you instilled in Bane's mind that these recruited villains might be competition. opponents, and provide him with the weapons that would target Superman's villains."
One by one, sentence by sentence, Batman told everything about what he had done and his plan as if he were peeling off the cocoon. Jason couldn't believe that the other party could do this so easily.
Batman's voice is still ringing:
"This will greatly enhance the opponent's confidence and prompt him to make more radical choices. Then you will instigate him. After successfully defeating Superman and Batman, the dispute between them will immediately break out. In order to compete for Fighting for control over Superman and Batman."
"But you're still not sure about taking chestnuts from the fire."
Chen Tao said: "So you introduced a foreign aid."
He hooked his fingers, and the monitor next to him opened on its own for no apparent reason, allowing Jason to see Blake's image on it.
"You discovered Black, a team of government-authorized murderous heroes. In order to reduce Superman's influence, Amanda Waller is building them into tomorrow's stars. Although their thinking is somewhat fascist, you still like them. means, intending to use their force."
"You have deeply analyzed the personality profile of their leader Black, and judged that as long as he listens to Bane's plan, he will definitely choose to wait and wait for more villains to gather before taking action together."
"Therefore, you deliberately exposed your whereabouts in the dark world, attracting Blake and others to find the head of the Void Bar, and then calculated the time to confirm that he would definitely see the birth of your gamble."
"I guess you even have contact with Amanda Waller to counter Black..."
Chen Tao said it one by one, and then slowly clapped his hands again and again.
"Wonderful, interlocking. You make everyone applaud."
He is worthy of being Batman's son.
Chen Tao added in his heart.
"But what makes you think Bane would know nothing?"
"He may not know it's you, and he doesn't know exactly how far the plan has been leaked, but Bain is not an easy opponent to deal with. I don't believe he will not discover Black's existence. Do you think you can use Black to encircle and eliminate Bain and Those super villains he summoned? Maybe you are the one who is surrounded."
"Don't have any contact with Black anymore." Jason heard Batman say: "I have hacked the anonymous account you used to directly contact him. Now this account is mine, and you can treat it as my request to Black and His Jiying Alliance must have leaked the location of the Nihility Bar..."
"Jason Todd."
Jason paused for half a second.
Then he took off his red hood and threw it to the ground.
"So you already know my identity?"
He heard Batman say:
"Yes, that's right. I recognized you when you and Shiva first appeared in my field of vision. I'm not so stupid that I can't recognize my own Robin."
Jason gritted his teeth, and then he whipped out two guns and pointed them at Batman:
"You're wrong, Batman. You guessed most of my plan, but you missed the most important part. I'm no longer your Robin."
He became a little excited:
"The day I was beaten to death with a crowbar by the Joker and crawled out of a tombstone, I was no longer the same Jason Todd."
"I don't plan for Black to kill all the villains. I'm going to let Bane die, and then Red Hood will be the leader of the villains and lead them against Black and completely become their leader."
Jason said:
"There is no end to criminals, and there is no end to evil. Bruce, you have been fighting crime in Gotham for how many years. Do you think I don't know what you asked Superman to do in Gotham?"
"Do you think that letting Superman use his strength to suppress those criminals can completely end crime? This is impossible! The most profitable businesses are written in the criminal law. As long as crime can obtain a thousand times more profit than abiding by the law, it will There will always be people who take desperate risks, and there will always be people who pursue these interests! Sin and justice are like light and darkness, day and night, and sin can never be eliminated!"
"So instead of fighting sin, I'm going to take control of it."
He said: "Those villains will become my strength. With their support, I can reshape and even unify the dark world of North America, and then gradually encroach on the south. We will control the drug business. Under my control, They will never go to schools, children and people who are clean."
"Pornography, gambling, drugs, all evils will be curbed and safely supervised under gray rules. Except for those who are willing to fall, no new people will be poisoned by these evils."
"That's what the Roman Falcone thought when he was young!"
(Roman: An early villain in Gotham, the gang godfather who unified the Gotham gang)
Jason heard Batman say: "If you really did that, you were just ruling the underworld through coercion and murder, no different than what the Romans did."
Then he saw Batman reaching out a hand to him: "It's not too late, we can still repair this relationship."
Jason raised his gun.
They had broken down, and Jason was clearly aware of this. Then it was time to break out into battle. He was not sure he could win.
Then the next second, he heard what Batman said.
The world was blurry at this moment, and Batman's voice seemed to come from the bottom of the sea, distant and trance-like.
He heard the other party say:
"I love you, Jason."
Jason thought he had heard wrongly and lowered the muzzle of his gun.
"I'm sorry for you. Your death is the biggest regret and failure in my Batman career, and it breaks my heart."
"You can't imagine how happy I was when I found out you were alive."
Jason staggered back a few steps.
He heard Batman say: "I know you have reasons to hate me, and you have every right to hate me. I'm sorry. But there are some things I've always regretted not being able to tell you in person, but now I can finally tell you, my child."
"I love you."
"Stop it, Jason. What you did is not what my Robin would do. My Robin..." Jason heard Batman say slowly: "He is a bright and righteous hero, he will not Hanging out with criminals. My Robin, my Jason..."
"I wish you could come home with me."
Violent emotions surged into Jason's brain, and he tried his best to keep his voice from sounding like he was choked.
"No! Liar."
He said:
"Do you think this is the reason for me? Because you failed to save my life? I don't know what can cloud your judgment more, your guilt, or your pedantic sense of morality."
"Bruce, I forgive you for not saving me. I've forgiven you a long time ago. But why? Why exactly? The Joker is still alive? You let him go? Over and over again?"
"Do you know how angry I was when I learned from Penguin that the Joker was still alive?"
"You ignore all the evil deeds the Joker has committed so far, and blindly and stupidly ignore the large cemeteries he has filled, the hundreds of victims, and the countless lives and deaths, do you know?"
Jason finally choked up.
"I thought... I thought my death would stop you from letting him harm others. If it was you who was beaten to a bloody pulp by him, if it was you he killed, I would only do one thing. That means digging three feet into the ground to dig out this executioner who is full of crimes, and then send him to hell!"
Then Jason saw Batman stand up and move towards him step by step, ignoring his gun.
"What do you want to do? Bruce - don't you have the guts to answer me? Bruce? Your moral code won't allow you to do that. It's too difficult to cross that line?"
He saw Batman grip the barrel of his gun and then take the gun out of his hand.
Crunch, creak, creak, creak —
The barrel of the gun was bent by Batman, and Jason's eyes showed infinite disappointment.
He raised his head and tried his best not to let tears fall.
"I didn't mean to kill Penguin, Ventriloquist, or Dent, or Mr. Freeze. I had the opportunity to kill them when I invaded the Batcave in Gotham, but I didn't do it."
"I'm just saying kill the Joker, after all these years. This villain, kill him."
Jason was a little incoherent:
"I said kill him, just kill him. Kill him because...because...he caused us to be separated forever."
Jason lowered his head. He knew Batman wouldn't break his principles and nothing he said could impress Batman.
He just felt sad, very sad.
Then he heard Batman say:
"Okay. But we're not using guns."
Batman snapped his fingers, and for an instant, the entire room was illuminated by lights.
Jason saw the wall next to him flip over, and the classic storage design common in bat bases was revealed again, revealing two crystal coffins.
And lying among them is...
clown.
And there are two.
Jason's brain shut down.
He turned to look at the monitor next to him, and a video started playing on it.
Batman in the video walked up to a crystal coffin, he pulled the joystick, and then the clown...
Jason suddenly realizes that after his death, Batman killed the Joker for him. But the clowns are not one person, but a group of people.
He saw a creepy smile on Batman's face and walked up to one of the clowns.
The other party was sleeping like a cold corpse.
"Shooting clowns may cause some unexpected bad consequences, so I recommend using this tool specifically designed to kill clowns."
Jason heard Batman say in a tone as nervous as epilepsy: "Convenient, fast, permanently sealed, eliminating all virus risks."
"Gahba, the clown will be so hot!"
Jason watched helplessly as the other party pulled on the joystick. In an instant, after a burst of laser light, the clown turned into thin pieces in front of him.
"Okay! Killed another clown!"
Jason saw a sickly twisted smile on Batman's face, saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth.
The Batman in the video on the screen also pulled the joystick along with the real Batman, and the Joker on the screen also turned into pieces.
Batman grabbed the joystick and made a crazy voice:
"Okay, we still have a clown to kill. I caught two last time. Jason, I'll kill it for you right away..."
Jason hugged Batman's arm: "Stop. That's it."
Jason wiped the cold sweat from his head and said righteously:
"Don't kill. We are superheroes and we have a rule not to kill."
