Chapter 1: The People in Batman Revealed (Please Save)
Gotham...is a black page.
It's the white words you wrote on the black paper, the path you are pursuing and constantly falling.
It's like the first sentence of the last story in your life.
——"Batman: Gotham Impressions"
…
"Zizi... Gotham Gazette brings you the latest news... The tense confrontation between the ventriloquist and the police at the Gotham Evidence Bureau has lasted for 3 hours. Experts believe..."
"...it's all about freak attraction...what happened at Arkham a few days ago...because Batman, you know, he attracts those..."
"So far, Batman still has not arrived at the scene. We can't help but ask, are the rumors that Batman is dead true? Is the Gotham City Police Department incapable of arriving... Wait, there is a new situation. It's Batman! he came!"
It was rainy in Gotham City in June, but the square in front of the Gotham Evidence Bureau was noisier than usual.
Before Chen Tao's Batmobile could stop, a large group of reporters gathered around it like flies seeing carrion.
They braved the drizzle and pushed hard against the demonstrators holding signs saying "We don't want Batman" and the police holding batons to maintain order.
The camera flash kept flashing.
"Batman, please tell me about the recent rumors in Gotham that you were killed by Bane..."
"...In response to the ventriloquist's challenge, have you..."
"...Batman, why are you so aboveboard this time..."
"You freak! It's all your fault! That lunatic inside, do you understand, you attracted..."
"…Get him, get him!"
The demonstrators who tried to attack the Batmobile were quickly pinned down, but Chen Tao turned a deaf ear to this.
In the midst of the chaos, facing the eyes of admiration, indifference, or disgust, he opened the sliding roof of the Batmobile and inhaled the first ray of moist air on the rainy night.
call--
He was a little nervous for the first time in a long time.
As an actor in his previous life, he should have been used to being in the spotlight.
But... today is different from the past.
Chen Tao sighed. Even if he traveled to the DC universe, he, a super comic book fan, was confident that he could still live a good life. But he never expected that he would actually wear it on the head of the famous Batman, Bruce Wayne himself...
What about the thigh hug you promised? What's the matter with turning into a thigh?
As we all know, as the only member of the Justice League's Seven without superpowers, Batman is most likely the most powerful pure human to ever grace the face of the Earth.
He has billions of dollars in wealth, is extremely smart, has extraordinary wisdom, has extraordinary fighting skills, and has a will as strong as steel. He punches Darkseid and kicks the Justice League. He is so awesome that there are no words to describe it!
But - what does all this have to do with Chen Tao, a time traveler?
Oh, by the way, Batman is an orphan, he was an orphan in his previous life, and that might be the only thing they have in common. The original person whose parents both died and the time traveler whose parents both died, this double orphan combination is so cool.
What's even more irritating is that originally traveling into Batman was already considered hell mode, but the timeline he traveled through was still during the period of "Batman: Knightfall". The Dark Knight was about to face one of the few complete defeats in his life - being... 【Bane】Break the spine! ! !
This can no longer be described as hell mode.
Chen Tao also thought about leaving everything and leaving Gotham, but he quickly gave up this stupid idea.
Bane knew Batman's true identity. Wouldn't it be suicide to escape without a fight?
When Bane defeats him and completely controls the city, maybe... no, there is no doubt that it will be his death. Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will be in a wheelchair for the rest of your life...
He turned his gaze to the lower left corner and saw a line of small silver letters that only he could see.
[The Alfred Agreement is taking effect]
【warn! You'll need at least one anchor item to sync Batman's memories! 】
Damn it, what do people do when they come to the Batcave, sign in to get platinum kryptonite, swallow it in one gulp, and transform directly into Superman? But he doesn't even have the basic benefits of a time traveler like [memory of the original body]!
Three days after traveling back in time, he even tried the toilet paper in the Batcave, but there was no reaction at all.
Chen Tao knew about the Alfred Protocol, but in the comics, this thing should have been a physical mechanical device for Batman to prevent his memory from being tampered with, not this strange thing that appeared on the retina!
"Batman!"
A call interrupted Chen Tao's thoughts. He turned his head and saw Gotham City Police Chief Jim Gordon running over quickly.
He had two big dark circles under his eyes, and his brown hair mixed with some gray was messy and wet lying on his forehead, making him look embarrassed and nervous, like a marmot that had been raped to the point of mental breakdown.
"Oh my God! Batman! You're here, it's hard to imagine you're still alive. I saw Bane snap your neck. Are you really a bat and not the Joker who picked up his clothes on the bat's corpse?" , put on his hood, what kind of role-playing game are you playing with me here?”
"The boring temptation ends here." Chen Tao replied: "Don't be fooled by that rumor."
He immediately heard the probing meaning hidden in Gordon's joke, so he immediately interrupted the other party. Yes, although his body is real, his soul is fake. So don't discover the truth, sharp detective.
Chen Tao sighed secretly, it was really difficult to deal with these people in Gotham. Without Batman's memory, you have to do everything on your own.
He turned his attention to the Gotham Evidence Bureau, which was silent in the rain.
So, that's the plan.
As a huge fan of American comics, he has memorized the Batman comics thoroughly, and is even more familiar with the villains in the comics.
Coupled with his skills as an actor and his ability to control other people's psychology as a psychiatrist, he may be able to try to control and master some weaker or poor villains at a psychological level, and then use them to fight against Bane... …
Chen Tao looked at Gordon and got straight to the point.
"Have you brought what I asked for?"
"Oh, of course."
Director Gordon's eyes wandered away from his face and he raised the evidence bag in his hand. Inside was a ferocious puppet with a scar on his face.
Scarface, ventriloquist's favorite puppet.
"Well, give it to me."
Director Gordon was obviously hesitant, but he still handed the evidence bag to Chen Tao obediently, which made Chen Tao sigh in relief.
He thought for a while and explained:
"The source of that rumor is that it was not me who was killed by Bane, the so-called Batman, but my disciple, the Angel of Death."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Gordon wisely did not continue the topic.
Chen Tao looked at him deeply.
"We'll talk about this later."
He took out a huge satchel from the back of the Batmobile, holding the puppet Scarface in his hand, and walked towards the door of the Bureau of Evidence in full view of everyone.
"call……"
He whispered in an inaudible voice:
ladies and gentlemen.
The props are ready and the actors are in place.
Please allow me the honor to announce that the performance...
start.
