All Worlds Madhouse

In a certain plane, there is such a sentence.

"He who fights against the dragon should be careful not to become one. When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you."

This passage sounds very mysterious, cool, majestic, and at the same time very vague. People just read these words put together and feel the atmosphere of the second grade, but few can really understand this sentence. The meaning behind the words.

Because this is not a statement, but a question. It is asking: What is the difference between a brave man and a dragon? Is there really any difference between the inside and outside of the abyss?

The same sentence structure can be replaced with millions of different doubts.

What is childishness and what is maturity?

Is there a right or a wrong way for both parties to insult each other?

In the eyes of beasts, are humans also beasts?

What is the difference between a person who uses violence to punish criminals and a criminal?

Well, these questions are too profound and too hollow, so let us return our sights to Gotham, to the night of this sin city, and to a man who was also dubbed a "weird" many years ago. Guy Batman.

Everyone knows that Batman doesn't kill.

He may break your limbs into pieces, he may beat you into dementia, he may throw you into the Black Gate Prison where you can be crippled alive, he may brand you with a lifelong disability and pain, but he will not kill.

You can think of him as a middle-class paranoid with a false virgin heart. Of course, you can also understand him with a simpler idea, because not killing people is his bottom line. Because he wants to save this city. Although this place is already filled with sin, he always believes that as long as there is one person who can stick to the so-called justice, then this city can still be saved.

Well, actually from a certain point of view, this is a very twisted and deformed psychology, because the so-called justice is basically a fictional illusion, but it is also this kind of psychology that makes him become a sin-ridden person. "Hero".

Yes, it is full of sin. As I said before, Gotham City is an abandoned city. There is only sin here. Everyone here is a sinner. Naturally so does Batman. He is an extrajudicial sanctioner, with no police badge and no arrest warrant. He shows violence in the dark night, and everything he does is not allowed by the law. Like all those weirdos, he wears strange clothes and faceless makeup. He is even weirder than those weirdos because His costume is much cooler than any super criminal. Putting it this way, apart from not killing or robbing, he seems to be no different from the criminals he fights. And he doesn't rob because he doesn't need to rob. Therefore, not killing people seemed to be the only string that could hold him back from falling.

Yes, he can indeed kill, and he even wants to shoot those criminals every second.

But what happens after that?

Kill the next one?

Next one?

This is Gotham. If you want to eliminate evil, there is only one way, which is to blow up the entire Gotham. No one will be left.

That is not salvation, but slaughter.

So as long as Batman kills someone, he is no longer Batman, but a murderer with no bottom line. He is a more terrifying existence than any criminal.

So on that night, all the super criminals in Gotham were dumbfounded.

They saw the girl named Harley Quinn lying in a pool of blood. Her graceful figure could make any man with normal physiology swallow his saliva.

Next to her, stood a monster, a monster wearing a black cloak that almost blended into the night.

Batman, kill someone!

At that moment, the sins accumulated throughout his life began to drag this self-proclaimed righteous man into depravity. Resentment, hatred, madness, and thousands of emotions swallowed him up the moment the kite string was disconnected.

A devil was born.

At that moment, all the super criminals realized that they had to kill Batman, there was no other choice!

But how to kill?

He disappeared into the night again, and no one knew where Batman was. Usually, he always appears from the darkness, breaks someone's bones and sends them to prison, but from this moment on, no one knows whether he will directly rip someone's throat out the next time he appears. .

The entire Gotham City fell into the most terrifying panic in history. All the super criminals are in hiding, some have disappeared, some have left Gotham directly, and some are preparing to surrender and hide from Batman in prison.

Penguin sat in front of Ziliang and talked about these things.

"So. Is this why you criminals suddenly disappeared eight years ago?" Ziliang frowned and said, "No, if it was just like this, then Gotham shouldn't be what it is now."

Penguin nodded: "Of course it's not just that simple, because there is not only Batman in Gotham City, but also another person named Joker!" He said, and then seemed to fall into another memory.

After that night, Batman didn't appear for a long time, but everyone knew that it was because he carried too many sins. The birth of a hero was extremely difficult, and the birth of a demon naturally took time.

Just then, the clown appeared.

No one knew what he was thinking. In short, he did not hide like other super criminals. Instead, he appeared at the main entrance of Wayne Tower with great fanfare.

It was noon, and he was wildly shooting at the crowd at the entrance of Wayne Tower. No one had ever seen a clown like that. He was not laughing wildly, but angry and roaring. He was cursing crazily, calling Batman a coward. !

That day, he planted bombs in the city. No one knew how many he planted, but it was certain that the clown was in a bad mood that day, and a clown in a bad mood was enough to blow up the entire Gotham.

The way to stop the explosion is very simple, because the Joker has a deactivation device that only needs to be pressed lightly.

But the madman swallowed the disarming device in front of everyone.

At that time, people finally realized that he was luring Batman out and luring Batman to kill him.

"What happens next?" Ziliang seemed to finally have some interest. His eyes quickly passed over the notebook. It was hard to imagine how fast he read. In short, he seemed very happy, and his sleepy eyes were completely She opened her eyes, her breathing was a little tight, and her face was still flushed with excitement.

"Then." Penguin continued: "Then Batman appeared. He walked out of Wayne Tower in broad daylight, under the sun. But he was not wearing the equipment or the mask. I was also there, and maybe ordinary citizens and police officers didn’t understand what this meant, but at that time, I already knew that Bruce Wayne was Batman.”
