Chapter 136
Chapter 136
What he had was a Batman who was more irascible without Dick, a Batman who had changed his personality most drastically, and a Batman who was still very young and naive but more sullen and silent than he was with Dick.
The second Robin, the middle position, the identity given to him by Batman is like a prophecy, it seems that he is destined to live in the cracks all his life, always working hard, and always being ignored.
He has the worst Batman ever.
But maybe, because he has the worst Batman, he is the most important Robin.
"What did I say?" Johnson said loudly, "Don't think so much, just do it."
"I can't not think about it." Carl shook his head. "I don't have the option of going all-or-nothing when there's no hope. It's super easy for me to pass everything. I don't have 'all-or-nothing'. I guess I'm born with a kind of... superiority, so to speak. I don't like the pass line, I wish things would work better, but the thing is, if I choose the one that 'has a certain chance of being there' it's better, The worst ending might be that I don't even pass the grade in the end."
He can rush directly to catch the clown, but that will undoubtedly expose his identity. He can pat his ass and leave this world. How will Batman react in the future, and what will he think of Superman in this world? Hard to say.
He could just send Batman the location of Jason, but Batman definitely wants the Joker more.
And Jason, who is as stubborn as Batman and can be called paranoid... He is the most important Robin, and he is also the Robin most similar to Batman.
They have both seen the most dangerous and painful parts of the city, and they have been self-doubting in the rescue operation, even their experiences are so similar.
In Crime Alley, eight-year-old BruceWayne died once, and the one who survived was Batman who was determined to use violence to control violence; and under the design of the Joker, the second-generation Robin died completely.
The one who survived was Red Hood.
Full of pain, do not recognize the logic of Batman's actions, and always suspect that he is just a substitute for a generation of Robin Dick, and Batman has never loved him.
Sometimes when Carl thinks about it, he thinks he can just leave after saving Jason, or just leave without paying attention to anything. After all, what does this world have to do with him?
He promised some things to Batman in the main world, but he never planned to take the Bat family of every world to himself.
"My World", "Other Superman's World", that's different.
And there is an unspoken rule in the parallel world, that is, if there are no real major problems in other worlds, such as the "Injustice Superman" incident, then too much meddling is interference in internal affairs, and it is acting on behalf of one's own world - worry about it in your own world, This is the rule and cannot be crossed.
Otherwise, anyone who finds something unpleasant in other worlds can intervene, wouldn't the parallel world be messed up.
What's more, no matter how he does this matter, it will be thankless for him.
"I still think you think too much... I don't quite understand what you mean." Johnson admitted frankly, "But maybe you are quite reasonable, you people are different from people like me, the situation of your thinking It should be different from what I thought. I really don't need to think too much about the future, this is Gotham, who knows if there is such a thing as the 'future'."
Carl laughed: "I'm leaving Johnson."
His words were very calm, but there was only infinite sadness in Johnson's heart.
This may be the farewell, although Karl did not show any similar feelings.
"Why are you doing this?" Johnson stopped the strange intruder at the last moment, "You know it's not your obligation, you don't need to do this, this matter has nothing to do with you. I'm not smart, But I'm not stupid, okay? Obviously you're not from Gotham, and that's why you're in Gotham. Why would you do that?"
He stared closely at the other person's eyes, trying to find traces of panic, hesitation and lying, but all he saw was a shimmering sapphire blue, like the most expensive gemstone inlaid on that young and gentle face.
Bright and false, just like the feeling this strange intruder gave him from the beginning to the end.
"Oh." Carl was obviously a little surprised to be asked this way, he turned his head, looked past Johnson, and looked at the school that was completely sealed off from the inside, "I am not as firm and calm as you seem, I have always been Hesitant to do anything, because like you said, this is not my job, and I have no obligation to save people."
Johnson waited silently for the unfinished business.
"I don't know," Carl said. "Don't ask me, I don't know why I'm nosy."
Clark didn't meddle in his own business, did he?He doesn't meddle in his best friend's city himself, why should I?What does this have to do with me?I just need to manage my own world.
But watching those tragedies across the dimensional wall is still within his tolerance. When he is on the scene, he really can't just watch from the sidelines.
Not only does he not want to be on the sidelines, but he also wants things to develop for the best.
That's why I didn't take the initiative to go to other worlds... Karl thought, feeling unspeakably anxious and nervous.
He shouldn't do anything in this world, as long as he can take care of his own world, this is his point of view all the time, but he also knows what kind of person he is, and he knows that when things come to an end, he can't really Let things go and do nothing.
It is easy to get [-] points, and it takes more time and energy to get zero or full marks.
Carl also doesn't know which one is the "correct" option.
But in the end he had to choose one.
"I understand." Johnson nodded, and then rushed towards the direction Karl instructed without looking back.
Karl looked at his back from a distance, and after waiting for a while, he took off his glasses. This small facial ornament automatically deformed in his hands, climbed up his arms like a snake, and finally turned into a transparent hand ring.
The glasses have many functions after being processed by Alexander. Slightly adjusting his facial structure is only one of the most basic functions. It can actually completely change the state of Carl's body in the eyes of everyone, but Carl doesn't like to use it like this That's all.
Now is not the time to wonder whether he likes it or not.
After adjusting the mode of the wristband and confirming that whether it is human eyes or monitoring equipment, his appearance is completely incompatible with Superman, and Carl sneaked into the school quietly.
This isn't the first time Batman has been caught in a dilemma.
But this was the first time he hated the laughing clown so much.
Jason!How dare he treat Jason like this?He is still a child, only 15 years old, and although his personality is a bit of a headache for Batman, he should not have received such abuse from any point of view.
"I gave him to my Harley, Harley Quinn, my lovely ex-psychiatrist, she's going to treat little Robin well, I swear, Bat, and my lovely girl is very nice to Robin's age. Children have a certain degree of compassion, and while I don't think it's necessary, it at least keeps Robin alive," said the Joker, with rampant laughter and a manic pause, "Choose Come on, sweet little bat."
And Batman chose school.
Although heartbroken, it took him less than half a second to make this decision.
People often hate those long periods of indecision, but confusion, repetition, and indecision can also explain how intense a person's psychological struggle is, and how much thinking and deliberation he has gone through in making such a choice.
When a person can make a decision in a very short time, and can decide to give up in a very short time—even if it is only temporarily, abandoning his partner and assistant, people can't help but doubt:
Did he really take his buddies and assistants to heart?
Did he really invest his affections in his partners and assistants?
Did he really see his partner and assistant as a human being, rather than as a sort of assembly line soldier?
Love needs to be shown and expressed.
If you can't show it in action, then at least you have to talk about it verbally, right?Otherwise who knows what you are thinking?Who can guess how you feel in the end?
Who's to say if you cared about him, or if you just picked a kid off the street, trained him, uniformed him, and let him contribute his youthful heart and life?
But no, Batman is nothing.He will neither do anything to show his love, nor express his feelings, as if anyone has nothing special in his heart, as if he is a cold machine that can only perform tasks.
He remembers locking up the completely incapacitated Joker and throwing him into his Batmobile before deciding to go to school.
When the crisp lock sounded, Carl had already solved all the clowns who had controlled the school.
Just like what he said to Johnson with self-deprecation, things are always so simple for him. Most of the disasters in the world, even wars between two countries, can be easily resolved by him.
But things are always so complicated. The nature of disasters and the nature of war are things that he can't solve.
Simple and rude are useful, but they can only maintain a very short period of calm, and the accumulated problems will one day develop to the point where even Superman cannot be reconciled.
The students and teachers who were forced into the theater by the clowns looked at each other, not understanding why these clowns suddenly fell to the ground, but few Gotham citizens were really cowardly. After a short period of observation, a few teachers tried to Stepping forward, he first confirmed that the clowns were really unable to get up, and then lifted off the clowns' clothes with trembling hands.
The ticking time bomb disappeared.
If it wasn't for the fact that the school is still locked down, all monitoring equipment has been destroyed, and the clowns are still lying on the ground, what happened today would have been like a dream.
The author has something to say: Well, I finally wrote it here.
Carl didn't think he should take care of this matter at all. His hesitation point was "I shouldn't take care of it, but it's too uncomfortable to just watch like this."
Regarding the mutual obsession between Jason and the bat, and the fact that the parallel worlds do not interfere with each other unless there is a world-destroying event, the comics have clearly explained it, and I did not write it in detail.
This part of the plot is also quite difficult for me, and I have been very busy recently, so I can only update it once.
Fortunately, it is almost over.
