Kapitel 422: Conspirator
Due to the significant mistakes by the police in the previous cases, Batman was quite concerned. If they didn't uncover the police's mole, their future actions and plans would still be in trouble!
Moreover, those most afraid of Joker's threats were the ones with family members hospitalized or working in hospitals.
What if there were people within the police force who couldn't bear it anymore?
Outside the video, Commissioner Gordon appeared somewhat awkward, rubbing his nose. "I mean those gangsters. If they are determined to find loopholes, it's not that difficult. Police aren't robots; they face troubles and difficulties in their lives."
Peter Parker glanced at the expressionless Bruce Wayne and nodded, "Yeah, criminals can be ruthless, making it hard to guard against their conspiracies."
Bruce Wayne, on the other hand, wasn't concerned about the police's mole issue. After all, in Gotham City, that was hardly considered news. If the police department in Gotham was fair and upright, it would be a rare headline.
He furrowed his brow in thought and said, "Why did Joker want to blow up the hospital? What's his purpose? It's definitely not a random target. We can't treat this guy as an ordinary madman. Joker does many things with a purpose. I thought of... Harvey Dent!"
Peter Parker realized, "Joker still doesn't want to let go of this district attorney, does he?"
At this point, both the police and Batman in the video started their actions. Joker's public declaration of war had its benefits, at least awakening Batman from his self-blame and grief.
Alfred asked if he should take the Batmobile, and Bruce Wayne casually said, "It's midday; we shouldn't be too conspicuous."
"Then let's go with the Lamborghini; that's much more low-key," Alfred suggested.
Hearing this, Peter Parker couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Did I hear that right? Is driving a Lamborghini considered low-key?"
Commissioner Gordon shrugged, "Bruce is one of the richest men in the world. For him, a Lamborghini is nothing."
Peter Parker exclaimed, "Wow, the world of rich people is beyond my imagination."
In fact, Peter wasn't exactly poor right now. He had a player mission system that rewarded him with money for his heroic deeds, with basic monetary rewards being one of them.
But Peter Parker still had the mindset of an ordinary young guy. Even if he were given hundreds of millions of dollars, he wouldn't know how to flaunt it.
Most of the money he earned as a reward was either given to his uncle and aunt, donated to various charitable organizations, or used to lead a more comfortable life.
Arthur was even more surprised now. His situation was much more miserable than Peter's, and he couldn't fathom how rich people truly lived their lives.
In the video, Batman drove the sleek Lamborghini on the road, and the police's actions were swift. On one hand, they evacuated hospital patients and their families, and on another hand, they deployed police forces to protect the trouble-seeking lawyer.
Outside the television building, the place was crowded with people. Joker's words had caused massive panic. After a series of terrifying attacks, no one in Gotham City was taking Joker's words lightly.
After all, this lunatic was extremely audacious, robbing a mob bank and blowing up a police station. Now he claimed he was going to blow up a hospital; who wouldn't take it seriously?
So, in the midst of panic, some people even planned to assassinate the lawyer. Fortunately, the police's protection measures were effective, preventing a false alarm.
The police escorted the lawyer away, with Bruce Wayne following in the Lamborghini. He was also in contact with his butler, Alfred, to stay updated on the private conditions of the police officers' family members.
After a thorough investigation, they made a discovery. A young patrol officer who was part of the escort had some issues. Batman instructed Alfred to relay the message to Commissioner Gordon.
Meanwhile, there were problems at the hospital.
A police officer noticed that his colleague hadn't responded for a long time, so he went back to check. In the supply room, he found a female nurse with strange makeup.
The nurse didn't waste any time and pulled out a submachine gun, and pulled the trigger.
"Joker!"
Off-screen, both players and many viewers immediately recognized that the nurse with bizarre makeup was actually Joker in disguise. This lunatic was really planning to blow up the hospital!
But Joker's plan went beyond that; he went straight to Harvey Dent's hospital room. He woke up the unconscious Harvey Dent, then removed his mask to give him a surprise.
On the screen, Joker smiled somewhat shyly and greeted, "Hello there."
Harvey Dent, bound to the hospital bed, struggled vigorously, and half of his skeletal face was about to bleed from the effort. His large eye stared fixedly at Joker.
Joker took off his wig and said with a smile, "You know, Harvey, I didn't want our relationship to become so bad. You and that... I can't remember that woman's name."
Harvey Dent roared, "Rachel!"
"Okay, you and Rachel were kidnapped while I was locked up in Gordon's prison. I wasn't the one behind this plan!"
Harvey Dent, of course, wasn't fooled by Joker's feeble attempts at deception and said coldly, "You provided the plan and the manpower!"
Joker calmly stated, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who follows a plan? You don't really understand me. I'm like a dog chasing cars. Even if I catch one, I wouldn't know what to do with it. You see, I'm just doing what I do for the sake of doing it... The police have plans, the gangsters have plans, and even Gordon has plans. They are all conspirators. Conspirators always hold their 'little world' in the palm of their hand. I'm not a conspirator; I'm the one who makes those conspirators realize how pathetic and laughable their efforts to control everything are. So when I say your tragedy and your girlfriend's were not personal vendettas, you'll know that I'm speaking the truth."
Indeed, this was Joker's truth. He wasn't targeting Harvey or Rachel out of personal vengeance; he wanted more—chaos!
Joker was the source of all this chaos, but one had to admit that this madman had quite the eloquence. He told Harvey Dent that the reason he had fallen into such a miserable state was due to the conspirators, and Harvey Dent was one of them. His own plans had brought him to this tragic end.
While saying all this, Joker casually untied Harvey Dent's restraints, prompting Harvey Dent to resist, but he was easily subdued.
